Chapter 209: Lost Partner, Too Late to Say Goodbye! (2-in-1)
Just as Ji Guoyuanyi was happily talking to his new subordinates, the general Sengoku was quite nervous at this moment.
After hearing the news of Barrett's death, Roger's mood became very wrong, and the domineering spirit of the overlord was not under his control at all, and it spread out in all directions.
The terrifying domineering aura penetrated directly through the cell, passed through the deck of the warship, and quickly spread towards the surrounding sea. The sailors who were operating the warship in the wheelhouse, as well as the sailors patrolling and watching out on the deck, were swept away by Roger's domineering color, and they rolled their eyes directly, lost consciousness, and fell to the ground.
Roger's overlord domineering spirit directly enveloped the entire naval fleet, and all the warships became unmanned at this moment and stopped one after another.
In a certain cabin of the No. 0 battleship, Karp, who had just been lying down for a short time, was suddenly awakened by this sudden overlord domineering, quickly got up from the bed, and hurriedly walked towards the cell where Roger was being held.
"Barrett, that kid was killed?!"
Roger grabbed the railing with both hands, his face full of solemnity, and asked the Warring States outside the fence. Obviously, when Ji Guoyuanyi was reporting this matter to the Warring States just now, he listened to it sincerely.
But at this moment, Roger didn't seem to hear what Ji Guoyuanyi said just now, and asked the Warring States in disbelief.
He didn't want to believe this, and looked forward to hearing a different answer from Sengoku's mouth.
"Ahh
"If the person who reported it is Ji Guoyuanyi, then there will be absolutely nothing wrong with this matter."
"Barrett, the heir of the devil, should have been killed by Jiguoyuanyi!"
The hands that Warring States had put down on his chest for a while, slowly walked to the front of the cell, looked at Roger, and said in a deep voice.
"Dead. It's really dead! ”
"You guys. . . How dare you?"
As soon as he said this, Roger's body suddenly shook, and then he covered his head and said with a wry smile:
"Hehehehe."
"Speaking of which, my pirate group has been disbanded! Barrett, too, has long since left my ship. ”
"Speaking of which, my captain has been captured by your navy, I'm afraid it won't be long before I will be executed by your navy, right?"
"Barrett, that guy. I killed him."
"Heheheha!"
In the end, Roger actually covered his head and laughed "haha", and his emotions were a little out of control.
Sengoku was vigilant, but seeing that Roger didn't seem to have the intention of storming the cell, and sensing that the domineering aura emanating from Roger's body began to gradually dissipate, his face eased somewhat.
At this moment, the door of the cell was pushed open, and Lieutenant General Karp hurried into the cell. Seeing that Roger was still imprisoned in the cell, his solemn face eased a lot.
Seeing that Roger seemed to be "very happy", Karp couldn't help but complain to Roger:
"Hey, Roger, what are you crazy about there when you don't rest at night?"
"If you want to escape, hurry up!"
"It's been a long time since we've competed, and it's just so good that I'm moving my muscles!"
As he spoke, Karp clenched his fists, and there was a bone explosion on his fingers, looking like a reckless man ready to make a move.
Sensing Karp's arrival, Sengoku also turned around, looked at Karp, and said to Karp: "Ji Guoenichi killed Douglas Barrett. ”
Suddenly hearing the name Barrett, Karp didn't react for a while, he looked a little dazed when he heard the words, and glanced at Roger, whose laughter gradually subsided, Karp suddenly realized who Barrett was!
"Douglas Barrett?"
"The boy who got off that guy Roger's boat?"
As he spoke, Karp also looked at Roger, and he suddenly realized that Roger's smile just now was probably not because he was happy
"Ahh Right! ”
"It's Douglas Barrett, who was on my ship before."
"Your navy, what a pretty amazing guy!"
In the cell, Roger replied in a deep voice.
At this time, his eyes were bloodshot, and the dim kerosene lamp projected the shadow of the fence on his slightly pale face, making Roger's face look a little haggard at this time. Roger is in a very bad mood right now.
The shadow of death has always hung over his heart, and now, he has even heard the news of the death of his former partner, and the repeated blows have made people like Roger feel a little confused.
After so many years of crisscrossing the sea, it is the first time that someone close to me has died.
At this moment, Roger thought of many, many things.
He knew very well how much some people in the world government wanted him to die, and Roger also knew very well how much hatred his name of "One Piece" would attract for himself and his crew.
The news of the disbandment of the Roger Pirates before, the World Government did not know. Therefore, in the face of Roger, the first "king" regiment in history, the navy did not take any more measures after the failure of the Mercury Star Island operation.
But this situation will probably be different in the future.
With Barrett's death, Roger was already able to foresee something to come. After he, the One Piece King, was executed, the World Government was afraid that not only would investigate his movements and clear the traces of his existence.
The World Government may also investigate the traces of his crew, and then find out and kill them one by one.
Truth be told, before today, Roger had a lot of confidence in his crew, and he thought that as long as his crew wasn't stupid enough to storm the Navy headquarters, their lives would not be in danger.
Even if you can't beat the pursuing navy, it should be no problem to escape from the hands of the other side.
But Roger realized that he was probably still underestimating the power of the navy, if the navy sent people like Ji Guoyuan to hunt down his crew all over the world, then there were probably no more than three crew members who could escape from Ji Guoyuan's hands.
At this moment, Roger suddenly felt that he had not made enough arrangements before coming to the Navy to turn himself in.
Before turning himself in, he had actually told his companions not to come to save him, but he only missed Barrett, who had already disembarked. And it was precisely because of his mistake that Barrett broke into the naval branch of Jiguo Yuanyi and was killed.
This is where his self-reproach comes from.
Roger knew that he would never survive, and what he was most worried about now was actually his family and his companions.
"Amazing guys"
"I'm afraid I'll be happy if I know that One Piece praises him like this."
"Roger. Barrett is a pirate, and he is a navy. ”
"He's going to die because he's gone the wrong way! If he wants to blame, he blames himself. ”
"And you, too, are on the wrong track"
Seeing the visible loss and haggard on Roger's face, Karp actually walked to the front of the cell, sat cross-legged on the ground, and comforted Roger.
His relationship with Roger is delicate.
Because of their positions, the two are enemies, but also because of their personalities, the two are also friends. Karp knew more about Roger, and he remembered that he had told him that Roger was seriously ill and his days were numbered.
Combined with the way he saw Roger and Jiguoyuan getting along with each other in the naval branch before, Karp felt that Roger was probably not caught by Jiguoyuan, but took the initiative to go to the naval branch of Jiguoyuanyi.
One Piece Roger's life, I'm afraid it's already in the countdown.
Karp is a man who is rough on the outside and fine on the inside, relying on his intuition, and has already guessed everything.
"Going the wrong way?"
"Nope! I didn't go the wrong way! ”
"The wrong person, it's not me!"
Hearing this, Roger's eyes suddenly lit up, and his face became rosy, as if he had thought of something, and his heart was unprecedentedly excited.
"What? Do you want to tell me that being a pirate is still the right way?! ”
"Bastard!"
Karp was also a little stunned by Roger's words, and scolded angrily.
And Roger also sat cross-legged on the ground for a while, and laughed again, this time, in his laughter, it was joy, it was cheerful.
"Hahahaha!"
"Karp, if you live long enough, you'll see you one day!"
"It's not me who is wrong!"
"The right person will eventually be guided by fate and go to the right path!"
"You, your navy, can't be stopped!"
"Hahahaha!"
Roger laughed maniacally, wrinkles in the corners of his eyes, and even glittering tears.
Seeing Roger's appearance, both Sengoku and Karp were a little stunned, not knowing what this guy suddenly went crazy. However, since the other party has no idea of escaping from prison, the two are also relieved.
Just as Roger was escorted back to the Navy headquarters, Cyrus and Mihawk were driving a "merchant ship" towards Patrila Island in the South China Sea.
Patrila Island in the South China Sea belongs to the standard temperate climate, with four distinct seasons.
By the time Cyrus and the others left the New World and entered the South China Sea, it was already late September.
On the turquoise sea, a crimson merchant ship is slowly sailing on the sea. On deck, Cyrus sat cross-legged on the ground with a chart in his hand and examined it carefully.
Patrila Island, which is a dependent island of the Oran Kingdom, has only one small town on the island that is mainly farming, and the permanent population is probably less than 10,000 people, which is very small.
"This chart only marks the Kingdom of Oran, not the island of Patrila."
"It doesn't seem like it's easy to find the woman the lieutenant general said."
On deck, Cyrus scrutinized the charts, unable to find the target of the trip, and couldn't help but scratch his head and mutter.
Mihawk, who was walking with Cyrus, was holding the black knife with both hands at this moment, concentrating on cultivation. And a smile is lying on the railing, holding the fishing rod in one hand and playing with the dice in the other, looking comfortable, and has no heart to care about Cyrus.
Cyrus would mumble, hoping that his two partners would be able to give him ideas, but he didn't expect that these two guys were immersed in their own world, and the tasks assigned by Guoyuanyi seemed to have nothing to do with them.
"Mr. Smile, Mr. Mihawk, don't you two have any good advice for me?"
Cyrus asked, looking up at Mihawk on the front deck and smiling at Mihawk fishing on the side of the ship.
Hearing this, a smile appeared on his face, turned his head slightly, and said to Cyrus: "Cyrus, you know, I am a blind man, and I have no way to give you advice on navigation. ”
As soon as the words fell, Mihawk also said:
"Cyrus, you know, I've always focused on 'this,' and I can't give you any advice."
"Besides, isn't your chart already marked the kingdom of Oran? Since Patrila Island is in the Oran Kingdom, you can ask after you go. ”
As Mihawk spoke, he raised the black knife in his hand at Cyrus, and said with a smile at Cyrus.
Hearing this, Cyrus couldn't help but show a wry smile on his face, raised the chart in his hand, and said to Mihawk:
"You may not believe that the Kingdom of Oran belongs to that kind of United States."
"It is formed by more than a dozen island-type countries, and its territory is so large!"
Shaking the chart, Mihawk was also attracted by Cyrus's words, and turned his head to look over. What Cyrus is holding in his hand is a civil chart of the South China Sea, which is not detailed as a civil chart, which is a "feature".
In order to avoid the suspicion of the Navy Headquarters, Ji Guoyi did not go to the headquarters to obtain information on the charts of the South China Sea. The chart of the South China Sea in their hands was purchased at a high price from a passing merchant in Dressrosa.
Charts are a very precious thing in this world.
In the absence of global satellites, those who can draw nautical charts are talents among talents. The most abundant accumulation of nautical charts in the world, of course, is the navy and the world government, and the rest of the ordinary people are restricted from the use of nautical charts.
In order to prevent more ordinary people from going to sea. To be able to obtain civil charts in the South China Sea, it also costs a lot to succeed the country's first fate.
The territory of the Oran Kingdom is very large, and if you really want to count it, I am afraid that it occupies 1/20 of the entire South China Sea.
It is also not an easy task to find Patrila Island in such a large place. Cyrus and the others came out in a hurry, thinking that it was a simple task to pick up people, but they didn't expect that this task would still have such a big hole buried.
"Well, let's take our time." Mihawk also smiled when he saw the huge area of the Orlan Kingdom in Cyrus's hands, and said casually.
Cyrus sighed and nodded helplessly.
At that moment, a white news bird flew over the head of the merchant ship, and a roll of newspaper fell from the sky and smashed at Cyrus's feet.
Cyrus picked up the newspaper casually, looked at it, and when he saw the information on the front page, his pupils shrank sharply, and he muttered:
"We. . It seems that there is no way to find it slowly! ”
"One Piece Roger, on September 28th, will be publicly executed by our navy in Rogue Town!"
The front-page headline of the newspaper in Cyrus's hands was a "proclamation" of the Navy to the world. On the 28th of this month, that is, on 9.28, One Piece Gore Roger will be publicly executed in Rogue Town in the East China Sea!
The Navy withheld the "D" from Roger's name, announcing that One Piece Roger was about to be executed.
Under this report, the whole process of the arrest of One Piece Roger is also described in detail, and at the same time, the photo of Jikokuenichi was once again published in the newspaper as "the young legendary navy who captured One Piece Roger with his own hands".
Not only that, but the former crew member of One Piece, Douglas Barrett's attack on the naval branch and being beheaded by Ji Kunichi was also revealed by the navy.
It's just that the heat of this news has been covered up under the public execution of One Piece.
"Number 28?"
"Isn't that just a week?"
Mihawk also looked stunned when he heard this, and said.
"Hmm!"
"After he was executed. No, maybe right now, the world government is already investigating the trajectory of his actions. ”
"If we move slowly"
Speaking of which, both Yixiao and Mihawk on the boat realized the seriousness of the matter.
This is the first time that Jiguo Yuanyi has explained their actions alone, and if the mission fails, Cyrus doesn't know how to go back and face Jiguo Yuanyi.
