Chapter 24 from the World Deck Dialogue Headquarters
After a few minutes, Hopodi found a sack and filled Bucky the Clown's scattered limbs into it, then went deep into the tent.
From the mystery of Orange Town, to the tent in front of me, there were ordinary residents bound by ropes, and it was true that I had heard exclamations from the mountainside before.
"Don't worry, I'm Commander Hobodi of the Navy's 76th Division! Seeing their frightened expressions, Hopodi said soothingly.
Picked up a short knife on the ground and cut through the ropes of several residents.
"What are you looking for, come and help others loosen their bonds!"
After a while, Hobodi and the people of Orange Town stood outside the tent, and for those pirates lying on the ground who had passed out, Hobodi frowned: "My warship can't hold so many pirates, do you have a prison or something like that in your town?"
An old man in leather armor with glasses, who knew that he was the mayor of Orange Town, shook his head and said with a dry smile, "We are all good citizens, how dare we build a prison privately?"
Even if there were, they were a group of ordinary people who had no force and would not dare to imprison the most vicious pirates. His words drew a nod from all the residents.
Hobodi had no choice but to say: "Before they wake up, you quickly tie them with ropes, and prepare a small boat to throw them to the sea to fend for themselves!"
"Eh, isn't this method too inhumane?" the Whitebeard Village Chief's eyes widened, and he felt that the naval officer in front of him was a little evil.
"Are you still humane with the pirates?" Hopodi was speechless, did these guys have any memory, if he hadn't come, Bucky the Clown didn't know what he would have done to them after the banquet.
At this moment, from the mountainside, a small white dog rushed towards the crowd, and its eyes the size of soybeans stared at a certain resident, full of joy.
"Fun!" said a rickety old man in the crowd.
"Wang~!" the white puppy jumped into the old man's arms.
This warm scene dispelled all the previous troubles, and all the residents were immersed in the joy of freedom, looking at this scene with a smile on their faces, and forgetting Hobodi aside.
Hobodi smiled as he watched this scene, and when he was untied, he saw the old man in the photo of the white puppy Funky handing him the picture, and now this result is ......
With this wise and loyal puppy, the previous agreement was completed.
While all the residents were immersed in this scene, Hopodi quietly moved his steps, Orange Town, his goal has been achieved, and now these residents don't need the navy for the time being.
Alone with two packages on his back, Hopodi quietly departed as the night was about to engulf the sunset.
......
Back on the ship, leaving Bucky's limbs in the care of Mart, Hopodi returned to his common room with another bag full of Bailey.
Shortly before noon the next day, the warship returned after three and a half days and redocked at the port of Baygan Town, Jacques Islands.
The sailors escorted the 'Iron Rod' Yarrita and the 'Clown' Bucky (except for his feet) off the ship, and under the watchful eyes of many residents of the Jacco Islands, the mission of the 76th Branch's cruise finally came to an end.
The happiest are some of the local tycoons in the Jacco Islands, Hobodi and others returned to the 76 branch, and many of the tycoons in Jacco Town brought some 'gifts' to greet them, after all, after the indestructible and profligate Blu came down, Hobodi, the new branch commander, caught two sea thieves who had changed their colors in the East China Sea as soon as he took office, the 'Iron Rod' Yarrita, as long as he was a rich man doing business at sea, most of them she had visited, not to mention the horror of Bucky the Clown.
Hobodi's actions on this voyage brought great protection to their own safety.
"Commander Hopodi, after the Kulanke gift from the Chamber of Commerce in Bergan Town, the housekeeper of the Keya Manor in Xirob Village has also sent 200,000 Bailey......!
How long has it been since their 76th branch has been so trusted by the residents? Even the previous commander couldn't do those businessmen who picked the door to take the initiative to send money to the door, right?
Hopodi thought about it, and the people took the initiative to send money, which should not be considered corruption in the laws of the navy: "Take all those Baileys and put them in the treasure room as inventory! Also, Yarrita and Bucky the Clown, you have to take good care of them, and remember not to get too close to deliver food, especially Bucky the Clown, he is a capable person, and our branch does not have Hailou stone handcuffs to restrict him." β
"Don't worry, we've done what the commander said, we've tied him up and handcuffed him into a specially made barrel filled with seawater, and even if his body could split, he shouldn't be able to get out. Mart said excitedly, this idea Commander Hobodi could also think of, and he was indeed worthy of being the highest commander of their 76th branch.
Hobodi nodded: "Well, let's go down if it's okay! This cruise is not short, take out 200,000 Baileys from the inventory, you guys go to the town for a drink!"
Matt suddenly looked happy, he stayed here and waited for this sentence. But on his expression, he didn't show too much ecstasy, and asked, "Won't the chief go with you?"
Hopodi snorted: "Don't get too far into it, I'll disturb your interest, right?" That's it, I still have to report this incident to the headquarters, I don't have time to mess around with you, why don't you get out of here?"
"Yes!"
After Mart left, Hopodi picked up the phone bug number on his desk and dialed a phone number.
Immediately, the phone bug began to simulate the face of the owner of the phone bug on the other side, which was a man with sunglasses accent: "Hello, this is the Intelligence Department of the Navy Headquarters, may I ask if you areβ"
"I'm Lieutenant Hobodi of the 76th Branch of the East China Sea and the Navy Headquarters, and now I want to help me check someone. β
"Okay, please. β
"The sea thief of the East China Sea, 'Clown' Bucky, please investigate his origins, this person is likely to be a member of the Great Passage who escaped to the East China Sea, and now he has been taken into custody by us in the branch, and he is a Devil Fruit ability. We don't have sea floor stone handcuffs here. β
"Devil Fruit Ability?" The voice on the other end of the phone bug was shocked: "I'll check it out immediately, please wait!"
After about a few minutes, there was some noisy movement on the other end of the phone bug, and then the voice changed to another person, and the phone bug's simulation was replaced with a green exploding head.
"Moses, is it Hobodi?"
"This voice ......" Hopoday thought for a while, and suddenly realized, "You are Brannye?"
"That's right, hahaha, haven't you been seen for almost two months?
Looking at the empty intelligence room and the mixed documents, Hopodi's tone was a little helpless: "It's so-so." β
"Hahahaha...... It seems that you are not doing well, but I didn't expect you to capture a character who is not easy as soon as you arrive in the East China Sea!" Brannew said.
"Oh, did Bucky the Clown really come from the Great Passage?" Hopodi wondered.
Brannon replied earnestly, "It's not just the Great Passage. Just when we investigated his origins, we found that this person was very hidden. Stung in the East China Sea, although only a reward of 15 million Bailey, can you imagine? He is actually a member of the legendary pirates, the original Roger Pirates Gold Jackson! And he and the red-haired Shanks of the "Four Emperors" were still brothers when they were young! This guy was fortunately arrested by you, otherwise he would definitely be a world-disturbing element in the future!"
Brannon spoke in a very high voice, and Hopodi was a little puzzled.
Except for the One Piece King Grudo Roger, who was executed in Rogue Town in the East China Sea twenty years ago, the current vice-captain Hades Reilly, the red-haired Shanks of the "Four Emperors", and the crew of the original Roger Pirates, which one is not a strong person, this poor guy with weak strength is actually a member of the legend?
"Are you getting the information wrong? Hobodi confirmed.
Branner, who was on the other side of the phone bug, replied categorically: "There can be no mistake!"
"Maybe I made a mistake, maybe it's just a duplicate ......name," Hopodi said.
"Huh, this is reconciliation?"
"He was killed by me with one move, can you believe that this kind of person is a member of the original Roger Pirates?"
"Uh...... Thisβ" Branneur on the other side hesitated.
Hobodi snorted, and immediately changed his words: "However, although there may be a mistake in the information. But there is no doubt that he is a capable person, I don't have Hailou stone handcuffs here, I can only immerse his lower body in the seawater, but there is no way to go on like this. Let the headquarters send a warship! It's best for the Devil Fruit Powers to be escorted to the Deep Sea Prison "Impeldown!"
"Well, I'm going to ask the Marshal of the Warring States for this...... You wait!"
Another ten minutes or so passed, and Brannew's voice came from the other end of the phone bug: "Sorry, Hopodi. The marshal of the Warring States said that he doubted the authenticity of your information, and that there were no extra warships to be sent to the East China Sea now......"
"It's because you don't want me to go back to the headquarters so early!" Hopodi scoffed, his tone a little unpleasant.
"Uh......," Brannew said, embarrassed, "I don't know this very well. However, the Sengoku Marshal is very pleased that you were able to catch the pirates galloping in the East China Sea so quickly, and it won't be long before the news bird specially supplied by the Navy will go to you with the appointment certificate of the captain of the Navy Headquarters and the new captain's cloak, and once confirmed, you will be promoted. β
"Okay, I'll take a step back, and let the headquarters send a secretary by the way, I'm a bunch of here, and I have to deal with it alone. β
"Hobodi, you ask for this...... To be honest, I don't have to report and I don't think it will pass. β
"Huh?"
"If the secretary says, so many people in the East China Sea can always find one, right? You have to ask the headquarters to send someone, the distance is too far, this is unrealistic!"
"Does that mean there is nothing but the rank? OK, I get it perfectly!"
On the other side of the Intelligence Department of the Navy Headquarters, only the beep of the phone could be heard. Branniu reluctantly closed the phone: "This guy didn't tell him the news of Caesar's escape from prison, but he hung up like this." Forget it, he should be able to see tomorrow's Navy news headlines anyway. β
