Chapter 469: Sail Soon (4000 words)
At noon, Zhang Da also went to see the execution of the pirates, he had seen a lot of murderous scenes, and it was the first time he had seen the execution.
The place of execution was chosen in the town of Harbor, where the incident took place, and was presided over by the Minister of State, Neharonbai, himself.
Before the execution began, someone read out the origin and crimes of the pirates, and when the audience was a little excited, Neharon gave an order, and each had two sharp knives of the same style that he used to execute the One Piece King and stabbed into the body of each pirate.
Some people in the audience screamed, some shouted good, and some covered their eyes in fright.
At last Neharonbai said a few words to express his anger on behalf of the king, and the matter was over.
In the next few days, the Navy had dealt with the aftermath almost completely, and the seriously wounded were basically able to go to the ground.
Under the intensive care of Zhang Daye and Wendy, Lansel quickly rushed to help the residents, and occasionally pirates came to disturb them in the past few days, and they dealt with it all by them, and they didn't use the navy to intervene at all.
As a token of gratitude, Lansel decided to invite Zhang Daye to dinner.
"Welcome, Lord Lancel!" The owner of the restaurant was very respectful to Lancel, "Since you brought a friend, today's consumption is free, right?" β
Lansel smiled, "That's not good, I'll treat them today." β
"Gee, you've always been like that, I just want to thank you." The restaurateur seems to have a lot of respect for Lancel.
"If you want to be grateful," said Lancel, "ask the chef to bring out all the skills." β
After the boss left, Zhang Da also said: "Captain Lancel's reputation seems to be very high. β
Along the way, Zhang Da also saw many people greeting Lancel, and many wanted to invite him as a guest. It doesn't look like a stutter, but a real gratitude.
Lancel said with some shyness: "Actually, I just did some things, and besides, I didn't do much good......"
Obviously, watching Minato Town be destroyed and not being able to do anything about it was a big blow to him.
"You've done the best you could." Zhang Da could only comfort him like this, and then happily entered the ordering session under Lancel's Zhang Luo.
β¦β¦
Lansel was surprised that the Amber Tour had emptied the restaurant's food reserves, but he didn't look embarrassed.
When Zhang Da also proposed that they pay for themselves, Lancel refused, saying that he still had some savings in his family.
Zhang Da didn't insist anymore, because he knew that what Lancel said was true, according to Suifeng'er's investigation, Lancel, like Neharonbai, was born in a noble family in Lulucia, and his family background was quite solid.
However, Lancel's painting style is different from that of most nobles, he has been sympathetic since he was a child, and when he was 6 years old, he saw a distant pirate attack on the port and bully the commoners, Lancel made up his mind to learn martial arts.
Lancel's parents can't say how open-minded they are, but they are quite fond of him, thinking that it is very hard to practice martial arts, it is estimated that their son will not last long, and even if he can persevere, it is a good thing to train his body to be stronger, so he will go.
It's just that he can't leave behind the necessary things such as knowledge and etiquette that he should learn.
But what they didn't expect was that this kid really persevered, and learned a powerful spear skill, and at the age of seventeen, he was already able to defeat the best fighters in the country.
It was nothing if it was just like this, and the most intolerable thing for Lancel's parents was that when the child reached the age of eighteen, he completely disobeyed their arrangement, not only refused to marry other nobles, but also shouted that he wanted to protect the people and joined the king's army.
Even when he became the captain of the army, his parents still found it difficult to agree that the true nobles should sit gracefully on the carriage or on the back of a slave like the Draconians, and the battle should be left to the soldiers.
How could a nobleman carry a gun to fight and kill the vicious pirates? That's so rude, it's almost insulting to the status of the nobility.
Sui Feng said that Lancel's parents have been working hard to practice trumpets in recent years, but so far there is no gain, so Lancel is still the only seedling in their family, and his parents have no good way for the time being - even nobles can't ask the king to expel their son, so they can only let it go now.
That's how Zhang Daye got the Lancel they know now.
If you want Zhang Daya to say that dyeing this person's blue hair and saying that he is Weiwei's brother doesn't have any sense of disobedience.
"It's really inhospitable." Lancel went to the boss to settle the bill, and said enthusiastically, "Why don't you change the restaurant again?" β
Zhang Da also politely refused: "Thank you for your kindness, we still have a play and training plan in the afternoon, you should be very busy, so I won't bother much this time." β
Lansel didn't force him to stay, there are a lot of things waiting for him to deal with in the army, he is indeed quite busy, and he has been a little slack in his training recently, he has to train himself more.
In the future, he didn't want to experience that kind of despair again.
After sending them away, the restaurant owner kept wiping the cold sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief: "Fortunately, Lord Lansel didn't agree to let me have a treat, otherwise today's meal would have hurt for a long time......"
β¦β¦
It's not that nothing has happened in the past few days, there are two things that people are most concerned about, one is that Ye Yan plans to fight with the killer lurking every night.
These killers are very similar to the AltaΓ―r style he met last time, he wants to kill himself at the first chance after being caught, and he can't ask anything when interrogated, and he is probably the one with the big hand of the mortician.
It's just that I don't know if that guy simply accepted the bounty, or if he really has a grudge against the Amber Tour Group, and he doesn't want to die.
Although the strength of the recent killers is much stronger than before, and the number is increasing, Ye Yan has not stood still in the past few months, and he has not even used the Soul Suppression Gong when arranging them.
In his words: "The duty of the watchman is to let everyone sleep well, and if I don't even have the ability to do this, then I don't have to mess around." β
If he hadn't reached out to Zhang Da immediately after saying this and asked for overtime pay, then he must have been very handsome at the time.
The second thing didn't spread very widely, and the Virgo incident happened.
There is an undercover agent in the navy, and the other party is also mixed with the brigadier general, and he is about to be promoted to rear admiral, which is a scandal for the navy.
If it weren't for Zhang Daye's report and providing information, he would never have let him know the details.
It is now September 21, 1511 in the Haiyuan calendar, and Zhang Da also righteously backstabbed Virgo in mid-July, which means that two months have passed.
This is not because the navy is slow, but it needs to be carefully verified, and it cannot be easily done without full certainty.
To this end, Lieutenant General Tsuru deliberately drew up a set of battle plans to capture Doflamingo under the pretext of recruiting the Seven Martial Seas, and then went to Gaya Island to secondment Tina on the grounds that one of the links required Tina's ability to cooperate.
Tina was Virgo's subordinate at this time, and secondment Tina naturally couldn't get around him, but the plan was kept secret from others, so when Lieutenant General Crane went to pick up Tina, he revealed to Tina that it was to deal with Doflamingo.
He said this in a relatively low voice, and deliberately stuck at the point when he walked out of Virgo's office and closed the door with his backhand - the timing and volume of this was practiced repeatedly to ensure that Virgo could hear it, and to make him think that the two people who spoke thought he couldn't hear it.
So Virgo was trapped, and he had to be trapped, because even if it was just a little bit of talk, for the safety of the young master, he couldn't help but want to investigate.
A few days later, seeing that the plan was about to begin, Virgo still found very little to find.
But the more this happens, the more reliable the plan becomes, and the more dangerous the young master's situation becomes, so Virgo can only contact Doflamingo to inform him of the limited information he has so far, and remind him to be careful.
And then...... He was caught by Lieutenant General Tsuru and Lieutenant General Gion.
Virgo tried to resist.
Virgo hits GG.
The operation went well, and if there was any surprise, it was that Smoker grabbed Virgo by the collar and asked him why he was doing this.
Smoker admired the commodore when they built the Gaya Island Naval Base together, and now he felt sick at the thought of having been under the pirates for so long.
Virgo refused to answer, and gave Smoker a gavel, knocking him on the head and bleeding.
Smoker paid both for his head iron and for his lack of iron on his head.
Doflamingo, on the other end of the phone, crushed a delicate red wine glass and immediately said on the phone that he wanted to negotiate with the Navy.
Lieutenant General Tsuru didn't want to negotiate with him for the time being, and planned to bring Virgo back to the headquarters for interrogation first, but Sengoku wanted to see him by name, and Lieutenant General Tsuru knew that he probably wanted to ask Rosinandi in person.
Doflamingo gritted his teeth, and he quickly realized that this was a trap against Virgo, and that the Navy would only get into such trouble when there were no tangible clues and evidence. But if there is no evidence, how did Virgo get exposed? Who betrayed him?
Doflamingo, who was in the new world, immediately set off and rushed to the Navy headquarters alone, intending to use his special status to ask for someone. After all, Virgo was one of the people who first assisted him in establishing the Don Quixote family, and his strength and ability in all aspects were also very strong, and he was a very important person for him.
Using the ability of the Thread Fruit to connect the clouds in the sky and fly in the sky like Spider-Man, Doflamingo pondered the reason for Virgo's exposure and the bargaining chips he could use to negotiate.
Then the more he thought about it, the more depressed he became.
He became the Seven Martial Seas at the end of last year, and decided to speed up his plan when Klockdahl had an accident at the beginning of the year, and then it only took more than half a year to reach an agreement with many forces in the underworld. You know, these things were originally planned to take one to two years, and it's amazing to be able to shorten it so much.
Doflamingo was only one territory of his own, and his goals had already been set, and now that this kind of thing had happened, he only hoped that this accident would not affect his next plans.
β¦β¦
"If Doflamingo wants someone, will the Sengoku Marshal let it go?" Zhang Da also only knew that Qi Wuhai's subordinates could be sheltered, but this time the matter was obviously more complicated, and he could only ask Zefa's opinion.
"If he goes directly to the Warring States to find important people, the Warring States will not let them go no matter what." Zefa knows about Sengoku's adopted son Roxinandi, and Sengoku will definitely not let go of this matter, if it weren't for Doflamingo's special status, Sengoku might even fight him.
"But if Doflamingo puts pressure on Sengoku through other channels, it's hard to say." Zefa had some other concerns, and Zefa couldn't have understood the pain of losing his family, and he at least caught the killers with his own hands and sent them to trial.
However, the Sengoku period has only just confirmed the murderer, and it is very likely that he will not be able to convict him.
Zefa worries that Sengoku's mentality will also go wrong.
He thought for a moment and said, "I want to finish the matter here as soon as possible, and return to the Navy Headquarters early tomorrow morning." β
"Okay." Zhang Da also saw that Zefa had something on his mind, and he didn't mind going back with him, and it would be good if he could meet the flamingo.
As for the revenge on the king, it can be arranged before leaving, it's too late, it's okay not to arrange, he thinks that he is friends with Zefa, and he also has a little friendship with the Warring States, so it should be better to go over and see it early, and he can come back secretly to do it later.
That night, after everyone who went out to play returned to the Amber, Zhang Da also told everyone about the temporary change of itinerary.
Everyone basically has no opinions, these days they should have watched what they should see, and they have played what they should play, even if they leave now, it's nothing.
Shark Chili commented that the toothbrush technique is not very good, the toothpaste is below the average of shampoo, and it is not very special.
Because the flag demon knows the owner's hobbies, he came out of the castle with a set of knights' full-body armor, the kind with helmets and visors, Ye Yan felt very handsome, and he was studying to make a set of fits for himself in the past two days.
Uncle Long was probably interested in the craftsmanship of that armor, so he volunteered to help Ye Yan draw drawings, and on that basis, he used his rich historical knowledge to explain to Ye Yan the armor styles of various countries and periods, and suggested where to make some changes that would look better.
Ye Yan suddenly admired Uncle Long so much, he looked like he hated to see each other, if he had known that Uncle Long knew so much about armor and clothing styles around the world, he would have bowed his head a long time ago.
Now Ye Yan has picked up a treasure, and Uncle Long has almost no time to educate the little girls in the past few days.
It is precisely because of this that the little girls have been playing wildly these days, and even went to the small village downstream of Port Town to make friends with Moda.
Yesterday they took Tom to play at Moda's cow ranch.
When Tom came back, he had two more holes in his buttocks, and the cows in the Moda family had doubled their milk production yesterday, and it was unknown what they were doing with Tom.
"It's too late to say goodbye to Moda when you go so fast!" Perona grumbled.
Vivi and Wendy Charlotte thought the same thing.
Zhang Da also said: "You can go now, if you go for a run, it is estimated that it will not be dark when you arrive at their house, and it will be regarded as evening exercise." β
The little girls looked at each other, ran out with a stump, and after a moment ran back with a sneer: "I forgot to take the present!" β
Looking at their backs, Zhang Da also remembered the past convictions of Perona and Weiwei, and hurriedly reminded: "Go back, don't kidnap people for me!" Moda's parents are ordinary people, and her daughter will cry when she loses it! β
"Got it!"
Zhang Da was still not at ease, and said viciously: "If I find out that there is one more person when I set sail, I will throw one of you down!" β
