Chapter 490: When the Promise Is Fulfilled
ββ¦β¦β
In front of a round table, a man said impassionedly, "To sum up, we have reason to think that this incident may be the beginning of the government's desire to clean up the new world!" β
"The New World has always been the territory of the pirates, since the opening of the era of the sea pirates, with the influx of more and more maritime heroes, the government has almost completely lost control of this sea area, even with the formation of the Four Emperors pattern caused by the relatively calm of the new world election, the establishment of the Seven Martial Seas system caused by the balance of the world pattern, but within the new world, the government can accurately grasp the territory is also very few,"
The man in the hat shouted, "I think this incident is the first step taken by the government to regain the new world!" Therefore, we should also move, we can't let the navy defeat the Whitebeard Pirates so easily, if the strongest pirate group is defeated, the prestige of the government will undoubtedly be greatly expanded, such a thing is undoubtedly a great blow to our cause. β
"No,"
On the other side of the round table, a man with a conspicuous tattoo on his face shook his head and said, "The government has no interest in the New World. β
"Mr. Long?"
The man with the hat was a little surprised, "Whyββ? β
"Quite simply, the New World was originally a battlefield set aside by the government,"
"Or the graveyard, deliberately reserved for pirates, for those who are full of ambitions!" Even if it is true that the Four Emperors are defeated and the New World is recovered, it will be in vain if this era of pirates cannot be completely ended, and the influx of careerists will not decrease, and the New World will not be vacated and the pirates will fight inside. β
"Is that so?"
The man in the hat looked a little depressed, "Then, Mr. Long, this time we-"
"We don't have to change our plans!"
The dragon's eyes were full of determination, "Keep doing what we should do!" Wholeheartedly building base areas, disseminating our ideas, and developing our comrades is what we should do! β
"We are not involved in this battle! Even if we mobilize all our forces, plus the Whitebeard Pirates, we are not sure of victory! There is no need to get involved, and it would be too unreasonable to gamble everything for something as uncertain. β
"Blu Blu Blu Blu!!"
Suddenly, the voice of a sharp phone bug rang, and Long stood up with some surprise, "Excuse me, the meeting is suspended." β
"Clickββ!!!
Walking to the balcony outside the conference room, Long answered the phone.
"Oh!! Hello! Mr. Long. β
On the other end of the phone, Vlad's voice came, a very joyous voice.
"Mr. Vlad?"
The dragon looked a little surprised, "Why did you contact me?" β
"Why?"
Vlad over there asked in some surprise, "What other reason could there be, of course, because of the big news is going to happen soon." β
"ββ? like this"
Long nodded understandingly, and then spoke, "Our revolutionary army will not participate in this time. β
"Huh?"
Vlad's business sounded puzzled, "Why?" Mr. Long, that kid in the straw hat is your son, right? Is it indifferent to a father watching his son being executed? β
"Don't play dumb, Mr. Vlad,"
The dragon leaned against the railing, looking a little embarrassed, "Of course, because I am not only a father, but also a revolutionary, my career, my comrades, my dreams, will never allow me to do such a thing." β
"Like this?"
Vlad's voice was full of laughter, "That's right, that kid in the straw hat is a qualified pirate, in this vast sea, all the roads are his own choice, what will happen is just his own adventure, he will die at sea, it just shows that the kid is a guy who is nothing more than that, right?" β
ββ¦β¦β
Long was silent for a while, and his breathing became a little short, and then, the man laughed bitterly, "Don't say anything more, Mr. Vlad, I am the commander of the revolutionary army, and I will never let everyone's career be affected by my personal feelings, comrades trust me and are willing to follow me to transform this world, I will never let them down!" β
"It would be too humiliating for a man to damage the cause of comrades because of personal matters."
"Uhahahaha!!"
Vlad on the other side of the phone laughed, "Indeed, the act of abusing power for personal gain is too ugly, and I certainly wouldn't expect you to do such a thing for someone like Mr. Long." β
"So, Mr. Vlad, what exactly do you mean?"
The dragon frowned.
"I just hope that Mr. Long can participate in this incident!"
Vlad said.
"What?"
The dragon frowned.
"Don't get me wrong, it's not for you to save the Straw Hats,"
Vlad smiled, "Only this time, the power that will be gathered in Marin Fando will exceed your imagination, Mr. Long!" The power of government! The power of the pirates! Also, the power on my side!! Woohahahaha! In this world, the battles that will take place there may be more than anyone else can control. β
"Huh? Mr. Vlad, what exactly do you mean? β
The dragon said softly.
"Nothing, just,"
Vlad smiled, "After all, the Straw Hat is your son, the person who is favored by the redheads, in order to deal with the inevitable arrival of the Whitebeard Pirates, and the perhaps coming red-haired pirates and the revolutionary army, what the hell should the government do?" β
"Huh?"
Long was stunned, "Redhead? β
"Well, your son is amazing, what will the government do in order to deal with the redheads and the revolutionary army? Of course it is to gather most of the forces in Marin Fando to prepare for war, and at the same time,"
Vlad smiled, "I also have to divide a part of the power to pay attention to the movements of the rest of the four emperors in the new world, you say, Mr. Long, of course how strong is the government?" Is it possible to fight the whole world at the same time? β
"Of course not!"
Long smiled, "It's better to say that in such a situation, the government's strength is already stretched!" β
"So,"
Vlad smiled, "Mr. Long, in this case, are you interested in signing up for a tour group?" How about a destination named Mary Joa? β
"Whew-"
The dragon let out a slow breath, "Mr. Vlad, you're really going to make a big move. β
"Really? Okay? By the way, Mr. Long,"
Vlad casually said, "Can I have a few words with Mr. Saab?" Now is the time to deliver on the promises made at that time. β
