Chapter Twenty-Three: Wicked Pirates!
At the naval base of the G-10 branch, Lieutenant General Karp and Rear Admiral Loka chatted in the reception room.
And Ji Guoyuan and Pheasant didn't stay with Karp, and after entering the new world for so many days, although the naval officers didn't say anything, the fatigue of the body was real.
Karp assigned the pheasant to supervise the replenishment of the soldiers, and also gave all the officers and soldiers a day off. After completing the supply mission, you will be able to move freely.
Yuan Yi's cultivation today has also been suspended, and the fatigue accumulated in his body really needs to be soothed, and he is not addicted to abuse.
The opportunity was rare, and he followed the pheasant and walked on the streets of the kingdom of Neil.
Although it is a mixed area, the market is also very lively because of the large flow of people in this kingdom.
"Oh! It's really lively! ”
"It's a little different from the new world I imagined."
Ji Guoyuanyi and the pheasant walked on the street together, feeling the prosperity of the country, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion.
He originally thought that the countries in the new world must be rampant with pirates and chaos, after all, when he saw Wang Luffy all the way, everything was unfair, and on this sea, pirates seemed to have become the most powerful group, but he didn't expect that the security of this Neil Kingdom was quite good.
Even the towns are quite bustling.
"Well... Although I don't know what the new world you imagine will look like. ”
"But there are still quite a few prosperous places like the Kingdom of Neal in the New World."
"But.... Behind the prosperity, what is hidden, I'm afraid, it's hard to say clearly in a sentence or two. ”
The pheasant knows the details of the Neil Kingdom, and he doesn't have much affection for a country like the Neil Kingdom that is both black and white, and the existence of the Neil Kingdom does not conform to his values.
"Who cares how much he hides, if you want me to see, the king of this country still has some ability."
"At the very least, it's good to be able to maintain stability on the surface, and to do such a thing in this kind of pirate-infested world."
Yuan Yi didn't know the details of the Neil Kingdom, he felt that this king was doing a good job, and it was really good to be able to run the country like this in such a world.
"Who knows..."The pheasant was noncommittal, he didn't seem to want to talk more about this topic, and when he saw a stall selling scones on the side, he asked Yuan Yi excitedly: "Yuan Yi, the scones here are not bad, the filling inside is made of local special fruits, do you want to try it?" ”
"Stuffing made of special fruits?"
"Taste it!"
"By the way, I don't have any money, you pay."
Yuan Yi also came to be a little interested in hearing this, for special food, he has always been a person who comes, even if the taste is a little strange, he is also interested in tasting it.
...
Just when Yuan Yi and Pheasant were feeling the customs of the Neil Kingdom.
In the royal palace in the middle of the island, King Nicola McCartney is hosting a banquet to welcome a special group of guests.
"Hahaha!"
"Everyone, you're welcome."
"Captain Newke, welcome to the Neal Kingdom, come, this cup, I salute you!"
The table was covered with rich satin tablecloths, and rows of silver cutlery shone in the light. The slender-looking maids poured wine for the guests.
Nicola McCartney, dressed in a sumptuous gown, picked up her glass, stood up, and shouted to the guests below.
Newke, the captain of the Newk Pirates, is a middle-aged man with a rough appearance and a burly build, and a bounty of 200 million.
Although Newke has just landed in the New World this year, he has already done a lot of great things, defeating two pirate groups with bounties of 150 million and 110 million, and has become famous in the underground world.
Before entering the New World, Newk was wanted by the Navy for repeatedly attacking merchant ships of World Government member states in the North Sea.
"Huh-ha!"
"Our King Nicola McCartney is really enthusiastic!"
"I'm a little embarrassed to entertain me like this."
"Don't be busy drinking the wine first, don't hide it, I came uninvited this time, in fact, there is one thing, I want to ask His Royal Highness the King, I hope to get His Royal Highness's permission."
Newk picked up his glass and stood up, glancing at the maid beside him and licking his lips before smiling.
Nicola McCartney noticed Newke's eyes, and at the same time saw Newke's face toasting himself, and he actually put on a score, his heart sank, but a bright smile appeared on his face, and he asked with a smile:
"I wonder what's going on with Captain Newke? If I can help, I'll help! ”
"Even if the things you ask for are a little difficult, my popularity is not bad, I know a few friends, they are from the Whitebeard Pirates, please ask them, they should also be able to provide some help to Captain Newke."
"It's really not good, I still know a few admirals from the Navy Headquarters, so if you are accommodating, you may be able to help you."
"Captain Newke, you don't know anything you need my help with?"
When Newke heard this, he didn't answer, and suddenly grabbed the maid beside him with a lewd smile and pulled him directly into his arms. Ignoring the maid's struggles and screams, Newk's hand was directly on the hem of the maid's clothes.
Just as he was about to make the next move, Nicola McCartney on the high platform suddenly let out a loud shout:
"Stop!"
"Captain Newke, I'm kind enough to entertain you, what are you going to do!"
Newke stopped, raised his head, looked at Nicola McCartney with cold eyes, hooked the corners of his mouth, and said:
"Your Highness, I have traveled all the way from the North Sea to the New World, and I am a little tired of seafaring life."
"My crew, too, are tired of it."
"We want to find a place to settle down and settle down."
"I think the kingdom of Neil is very good, quite prosperous, of course, the more important thing is that the quality of the women here is not bad, I am very satisfied! Hahahaha! ”
"My request is as simple as that, I hope Your Highness will give me this face, don't be ignorant!"
After Newke finished speaking, he looked down at the woman in his arms and laughed. At the same time, dozens of crew members of the Newke Pirates in the hall also stood up from their seats, took out their long knives, and looked at Nicola McCartney on the main seat.
Finding faults.
Nicola McCartney has never been a sluggish person, and he knew that these people were not good people from the time the Newk Pirates inexplicably broke into the palace.
He thought that he would make these people a little jealous by raising the whitebeard and the navy, but at present, it seems that it has no effect.
Not long after the Newke Pirates entered the New World, the navy that repelled the pursuit countless times made them all float, and the wide sea constantly nourished the ambitions of these people.
Now they have long since stopped taking the navy into account, as for the Whitebeard Pirates?! Sorry, don't know!
Although Nicola McCartney is full of anger at this time, he can lead the Neil Kingdom in black and white, and he can control his emotions well.
Looking at the poor dagger of the Newk Pirates, Nicola McCartney said with a smile on his face at the moment: "Oh! Such a small request! ”
"Easy!"
"In my personal name, I give you a manor so that you can have a place to settle in the kingdom of Neil."
"Alright, since I've agreed to Captain Newke's business, then you brothers' weapons can be put away."
"Come, drink, drink! Hahaha! ”
In the face of Nicola McCartney's concession, Newke's face smiled even more, shook his head, and said:
"I don't need Your Highness to send it, I have no interest in the manor."
"I think Your Royal Highness, your palace is very good, I like it very much."
"Give us this palace, Your Highness!"
As he spoke, a puddle of mud suddenly appeared under Newke's feet, and the puddle of mud quickly spread out in all directions, and soon covered the entire hall.
On the high platform where Nicola McCartney was located, mud also spread there, and by the time Nicola McCartney noticed it, his feet were covered in mud.
The power of the Devil Fruit!
When Nicola McCartney saw this scene, some panic finally flashed in her eyes, and she immediately shouted:
"Captain Newke, I grant your request!"
"I will leave the palace with my family immediately!"
However, the mud on the soles of Nicola McCartney's feet quickly swelled up, directly wrapping Nicola McCartney in the mud, forming a mud pillar, Nicola McCartney struggled violently in the mud pillar, but could not break free from the mud pillar anyway.
Gradually, Nicola McCartney's movements stiffened, and in just a few seconds, he was completely still.
The pillars of mud crumbled, and Nicola McCartney's body slammed against the table, the beautiful tablecloth covered in fishy-smelling mud.
Newk watched this scene quietly, and the smile on his face became brighter and more presumptuous.
"Huh-ha!"
"Hahaha!"
"I'll be very distressed if you leave!"
"I heard that your wife and daughter are all beautiful."
