Chapter 189: A Thorny Incident, a Sin That Can't Be Found!
The world of One Piece is a world full of contradictions, with both fairytale adventures and the Shura scene that unfolds in front of them at this time.
For the powerful and powerful, this world is like a dream, and all the good things you can imagine can be obtained in this world.
Endless riches? Monstrous power? A life surrounded by beautiful women? All this is open to the strong.
But behind this dream world, the vast majority of ordinary people can often taste pain.
At the behest of Jiguo Yuanyi, Cyrus, a native who had returned to his hometown, jumped off the boat, found a young man dressed as a guard who was sitting on the ground resting, and asked about what happened here.
"Friend, may I ask what's going on here?"
Since last night, the guard's nerves have been in a state of high tension, after all, it is still unknown whether the pirates really retreated at that time, and the guards who were sent to the port to pacify the people by King Liku have always been nervous, deeply afraid that the pirates will suddenly go and return.
After all, such things have happened before.
So when Cyrus came to him and asked about the previous night, the guard was sitting on the ground, his hands on his knees, his head buried deep in the middle of his legs, shielded from the sun.
Hearing Cyrus's question, the young guard quickly raised his head and looked at Cyrus with a nervous expression, and when he saw that Cyrus was actually wearing a naval uniform, the guard looked stunned and couldn't help but whisper:
"Navy and Navy ?!!"
The appearance of the navy really surprised the guards.
This is Dressrosa, located in the central region of the New World, and the people who live here are afraid that it is difficult to see the navy several times a year. In this day and age, the Navy does not have the strength to send too much force to the New World.
If you want to establish a branch in the New World, you need absolutely strong combat power, but nowadays, the high-end combat power of the Navy Headquarters is quite scarce. The only combat strength was sent to the four seas to stabilize the basic territory of the navy.
The moment he saw the navy, the nervous look on the young guard's face quickly disappeared. Then he remembered the question that Cyrus had just asked him, and hurriedly replied:
"Pirates!"
"Yesterday pirates landed from this port and ransacked Dressrosa."
"These. It's all made by pirates! ”
The guard's tone was full of hatred for the pirates when he said this.
"Is it really a pirate?"
"What are the pirates? How many people are there? ”
"Are there many people suffering in Dressrosa? Has the palace been attacked? Did you catch a captive or something? ”
When Cyrus heard that the pirates had created the tragedy in the harbor, he was not surprised. Before he got off the boat, he actually had a guess in his mind.
At this point, it only proved his guess.
However, after hearing that it was the pirates who attacked Dressrosa, Cyrus also asked again and again. He was desperate to know the information about the pirates, but he asked Ji Guoyuan to set sail to search for the traces of the pirates.
Dressrosa is, after all, Cyrus's hometown, although this hometown does not bring many fond memories to Cyrus.
But after all, his hometown is his hometown, and he absolutely cannot watch the suffering of the people in his hometown and ignore it.
Take 10,000 steps back and say, he is also a navy, and as a navy, he must not turn a blind eye to pirates.
"I don't know."
"Those pirates came and went as fast as they could, and by the time we received a summons from King Riku and gathered to rush to the docks, the pirates had already disappeared."
"As for the suffering of the people."
"I don't know very well, but from here at the pier to the edge of the city, the residents of the neighborhood have been persecuted to varying degrees."
The rank of the guard is not high, and the things he knows are limited after all, and the ability to answer Cyrus's message is also quite limited.
However, when he heard the guards say that from the dock to the edge of the city, the nearby residents were persecuted to varying degrees, Cyrus's face also changed slightly.
"So much?!"
Although he did not count it himself, by the time Cyrus heard this, he was able to roughly judge the number of people who had suffered.
The port of Dressrosa is quite a bit from the city. The fact that this group of pirates was able to break through to the edge of the city shows the strength of these pirates.
There's a garrison of tens of thousands of troops here, and it's not a town like Orange where there aren't even a few police.
To be able to do this kind of thing in Dressrosa, this bunch of pirates is quite powerful. After that, Cyrus asked for some more information, and then hurried back to the warship and reported the matter to Ji Guoyuanichi.
"It's really tricky!"
"There is no useful information about this group of pirates, in this case, even if we want to hunt it down, we will not be able to find it!"
"Lieutenant General, what are we going to do?!"
Koshiro and the others also listened to the information found by Cyrus together with Yuanyi. After hearing these messages, Koshiro couldn't help but sigh and said helplessly.
In the face of pirates who have come and gone without a trace, even if Ji Guoyuanyi's troops have enough terrifying strength, there is nothing they can do.
The sea is too big, and the navy's intelligence sources in the New World waters are very scarce. Sailing in the New World again relied on a recording pointer.
Going to sea to find a group of pirates who have no news at all is actually no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.
“.”
"There is no way, manpower is sometimes poor, we must realize our own insignificance."
After listening to Cyrus's report, Ji Guoyuan began to think about countermeasures, thinking about some good way to find this group of pirates and annihilate the other party.
But after thinking about it for a long time, Yuan Yi could only shake his head and sigh.
If only the world had a global satellite
Yuan Yi couldn't help but think so in his heart.
"Damn!"
When Cyrus heard this, he couldn't help but curse in a low voice, full of anger. His anger was not vented on Jiguoyuan, he just hated the hatefulness of pirates, hated his own incompetence, and had no way to help the people resist this disaster in time.
And the others on the deck also fell silent after hearing Yuanyi's words.
Enichi stood on the deck, tapping lightly on the railing with one hand, his brow furrowed.
If you want to exercise justice in the new world, you need not only strength, but also strong intelligence. The G-ICE branch of Mercury Island has been established until now, and it all depends on luck to find pirates, or they just wait for the pirates to take the initiative to find them.
"Huh?!"
Thinking of this, Yuanyi's brows furrowed, patted the somewhat depressed Cyrus, and said:
"I can understand your feelings, Cyrus, although we can't take the initiative to try our luck at sea to find pirates."
"But. We were able to wait for the pirates to come to us! ”
"You just said that the pirates just invaded to the edge of the city and didn't advance any further? And the army didn't capture or kill any of the pirates? ”
"In that case, I think it's possible for these pirates to sack Dressrosa again."
"Rich, there's no threat to these pirates, and. . The first raid failed to advance to the center of the city. ”
"Such a fat sheep waiting to be discovered, if I were a pirate, I would definitely come a second time!"
