Red Continent, Holy Land of Mary Joy, Ponger Castle.

Giant meeting room, inside.

Opening of the Provisional World Conference!

Unlike the regular World Conference, this Extraordinary World Conference did not have much to discuss among the kings of the member states due to time constraints.

The only "question" they needed to discuss was only one, and it was directly raised by the five old stars.

i.e. –

The World Government intends to erase all traces of 'antiquity' from the world!

This includes, but is not limited to, historical sites, ancient buildings, historical texts, etc......

Are the member states "agreeing"? Or "against"?

“……”

For a while, no one responded.

One thing to say, among the member states present, there are many kings who have long been accustomed to the hegemony of the world government.

Whether it was the control of absolute power or the forcible expropriation of heavenly gold, those kings had already accepted it.

What happens to countries that don't accept it?

Forced to withdraw from the Union States, all the people in the country no longer have legal status, the navy no longer protects them, and the slave traders can be captured at will in the country.

Such an outcome is unacceptable to the vast majority of member countries.

So, no one dares to say "no" to the world government.

But on the other hand, who can be the first to express support for the decision of the five old stars?

Those small countries can't.

There aren't many historical sites in their country, so of course it doesn't matter.

However, if we blindly follow the world government, it is very likely to attract the "hostility" of those big powers.

Most of the historical relics in the countries of those big countries are iconic creations of their respective countries.

For example, the historic royal palace in Alabastan, or the musical score of Eleguia, the ancient artifacts of Dressrosa, and so on......

Can't these big countries take revenge on the world government and the five old stars, and can't they take revenge on your group of small countries?

A little bit of use on the maritime trade routes would have been enough to bring down the economies of those small countries.

So, in the face of this proposal of the world government, what exactly should be done?

One word -

Wait!

Wait for the most representative superpowers to come forward, and they will be the first to come forward and agree to the demands of the world government, or bargain with it!

This is the so-called "political wisdom".

So the question arises again? Will you be eligible to be the first bird?

Answer: Alabastan.

With a long history of more than 2,000 years, it is a superpower located in the first half of the great shipping route, and there are countless historical relics in China!

Even the "Neferutari" family, who ruled Alabastan, was once one of the 20 kings who established the world government, but in the end they did not choose to live in the holy land of Mary Joa.

Such a country is enough to bear the weight of this issue.

“……”

The kings turned their heads to look at King Kobra of Alabastan.

At this moment, Kobra was also contemplating.

He narrowed his eyes and silently looked at the phone bug in the center of the round table, his brain racing.

The move of the Five Old Stars was obviously aimed at [Demon] Evan Lindsey to prevent his power from further strengthening.

So what should you do for the sake of the people of Alabastan?

Just "palaces" and the like, or damaged, or handed in, in fact, I don't care.

The only thing Kobra cares about is the "people" living in Alabastan!

Vivi, Bale & Gaca, Nationals......

“……”

"Haha......"

Kobra suddenly laughed.

With what he knew about Mr. Lindsay, if he knew he was worried about him, he would probably laugh out of breath, right?

This move of the five old stars is really a strategy, and Kobra believes that Lindsay can deal with it.

So, do you want to agree?

Maybe a little bit more ...... "selfish" thoughts?

Kobra thought.

And it seemed that they also saw the doubts of the kings, and the five old stars said through the phone bug:

"The stakes are very high, and if you have any questions, you can ask us directly in writing."

With that, the guards came and handed out pen and paper to the king.

Such a formal scene made many of the kings of the member countries hesitate, and they didn't know what to ask for a while.

But Kobra had already had an idea.

He carefully wrote down his question, and then handed it to the guard beside him, who conveyed it to the five old stars on his behalf.

“……”

Seeing this, the rest of the kings locked their eyes on Kobra.

They were all curious, what exactly did Kobra have to say to the five old stars in this rare opportunity?

Soon, the few kings had already written their questions, and the guards handed them over on their behalf, and then the guards brought back the answers from the five old stars.

Looking at the answers to their respective questions, the faces of the kings who asked the questions were different.

or gloomy, or happy, or afraid, or relieved......

Cobra was the only one who didn't respond to his questions for a long time.

It wasn't until finally that Kobra's reply finally arrived.

Looking at the reply on the letterhead, Kobra's face was solemn, as if he had made up some kind of determination.

“……”

Soon, the phone bug of the five old stars was connected again.

"Ladies and gentlemen."

One of the five old stars said slowly: "Your question has been answered, and now is the time to respond." ”

“……”

Hearing this, Kobra slowly raised his hand and expressed his approval of the proposal of the five old stars.

Seeing this scene, the kings of the rest of the countries also raised their hands.

In a short time, the proposal to "erase historical sites" was successfully passed, with the vast majority of countries choosing to favor it, a few countries abstaining, and no one choosing to oppose it.

The five old stars chose "live voting", most of which was also for this purpose.

The general trend is irreversible, so why should you be hated by the five old stars?

"Hard."

One of the five old stars said in a deep voice: "Then, in the next few days, we will discuss the specific details of the operation. ”

“……”

……

Soon, today's meeting was smoothly contacted.

The kings got up and left, and Kobra put his "letter" in his bosom, not intending to mention it to anyone.

What Kobra wants to say to the five old stars is actually very simple-

"I agree with the issue of the Five Old Stars, but I also hope to arrange a meeting between me and all of you."

The five old stars replied: "Yes! ”

That's all.

……

Kobra returns to the social plaza and smoothly joins up with Weiwei, Bell, Gaca, and the others.

Together with the rest of the royal family, they enjoyed a nice dinner.

After dinner, the rest of the group continued to enjoy and chat, while Kobra quietly broke away from the group and returned to Ponger Castle alone.

With the five old stars in hand, and under the guidance of the guards, Kobra marched all the way to a huge stone gate!

"Goodo......"

Looking at the gate, Rao is Kobra couldn't help but swallow.

There is no other reason, but behind that gate, there is the famous "Void Throne"!

“……”

Kobra took a long breath, adjusted his body and mind, and planned to meet the five old stars and ask about his inner confusion.

At this moment, another footstep sounded from far and near.

“？！”

Kobra was stunned for a moment, then turned his head to look.

I saw that the king of Dressrosa, Riku Dold III, was also thinking about the direction of the gate!

When the two kings saw each other, they were stunned for a moment, and then took out their respective letters from the five old stars.

Sure enough, the two kings invariably planned to meet with the Five Old Stars, and the Five Old Stars arranged the two of them together.

After a few glances at each other, Kobra and King Riku both looked at each other and smiled.

That's a good thing!

At the very least, you don't need to face the five old stars alone......
