One Piece – Thundergod Marine

Chapter 294: Rampant smuggling on Angel Island

Views:

"Canglong" is the code name prepared for Dorag, and it is also the heartache of the Warring States Period. Being able to hand it over to himself meant that Sengoku had put aside the past and truly began to regard Ron as the mainstay of the navy.

At the same time, "Cang" has many meanings. It is not only a color, symbolizing the gray sky before rain, but also representing boundlessness, emptiness and vastness, which is very consistent with the artistic conception of thunder and lightning represented by the Thunder Fruit.

Ron didn't find it strange that his thunder was "blue" on the eve of the storm.

But Dorag is also "blue"...

"Is it true to the rumors?"

Ron thought silently.

If Warring States can give the answer of "blue", Dorag may indeed be the rumored hurricane fruit ability user.

Ron had understood a long time ago that many unsolved mysteries in the original novel could not be found by looking for them. Secrets that cannot be told to others are secrets after all.

The information on Cha Dou's surface is all forged. If he hadn't actually had an encounter with him, the real identity of the user with the slowing fruit ability would have been hidden for who knows how long. And it's impossible for Ron to get to the bottom of this secret, so how stupid would he be? .

The same goes for Dorag. His information was kept silent by the entire navy, including Zefa. It's not that it doesn't trust Ron, it's the navy's statement and its unyielding break with Dorag.

In contrast, Ace and Luffy are lucky. At least no matter what they do, Garp can openly express his concern for his grandson.

The deepest rupture is indifference, which is more chilling than being angry and refusing to argue.

A few days later, the g10 branch.

If you want to ask what changes will happen when you become a general candidate, it will be nothing. Even though he was a candidate for general, he ended up doing the same thing, neither busy nor idle, step by step.

The g10 branch was indispensable for Ron to take command. After a grand oath-taking ceremony, Ron was kicked back to Gaya Island by the Warring States Period and continued to supervise the trade with Kongdao.

As for Sky Island, as Li Zi's head goes up and down, the gap between Qinghai and Baihai is no longer the same as before. As people's understanding of Sky Island increases day by day, it becomes boring after they become familiar with it.

They were just a group of unique humans with small wings. In terms of average appearance, they were not even as beautiful as the beauties of Nine Snake Island and Fish-Man Island.

Kulik used to be able to catch slave traders from Seven Star Island who came to Angel Island with Shirokai Kaidou after a narrow escape. Now he can't even see slave traders. The rich people's yearning for the Sky Islanders has decreased, and the effort and reward are naturally not proportional. .

However, Kongdao gave birth to another profession.

Shell seller!

Compared with angels who are no longer mysterious, Qinghai people undoubtedly love empty island shellfish more.

The convenient availability of shellfish such as hot shellfish, wind shellfish and other shellfish made Qinghai people discover that besides telephone bugs, there are such wonderful things in the world.

The flame stored in a hot shell is enough for a ship of people to cook for ten days, and it will not be affected by the environment. When necessary, it can even be used as a weapon, releasing the flame at once to create a terrifying torrent of flames.

Therefore, empty island shellfish has become a new type of show off for Qinghai people.

Rich and aristocratic people are even more proud to hold rare shellfish, making it equivalent to gems, castles, gold and other ostentatious items, and is highly sought after by people.

So the question arises. Shellfish are goods that Ganfur signed a contract with the navy for trade, and are protected by the world government.

At the same time, the only one who can transport a large amount of shellfish to the sky island is the navy, not to mention that the famous new general candidate Soryu is sitting in the G10 branch, so there is almost no need to worry about safety issues.

Getting rare shellfish is easier said than done!

If a big shot wants big money, he can buy it through negotiation with the navy. The Warring States Period only regarded shellfish as a strategic material, similar to muskets and cannons. It was not an indispensable item. He was happy to exchange it for money.

As for other people who cannot negotiate with the navy, they have only one other option but to rob...

"Lieutenant General Canglong, Angel Island needs to dispatch more soldiers to maintain law and order!"

Kulik, who had a chestnut on his head, found Ron with a wry smile on his face.

A list of criminals who had recently seized smuggled shellfish was placed in front of Ron. What was ironic was that among the captured smugglers, there were actually only a small number of pirates and dark world merchants who were not afraid of death and arrived at the Sky Island. Judging from the proportion, Less than one tenth…

Not one-tenth of the smugglers, but only one-tenth of all pirates and merchants combined will be a smuggler!

In addition, the rest are all local residents of Angel Island!

"Isn't the god Ganful becoming less and less majestic?"

Ron was a little dumbfounded. He took the information reported by Kulik and shook his head.

"Human nature is greedy!"

As Qinghai's understanding of Bai Hai deepens, Bai Hai becomes more and more familiar with Qinghai.

After knowing that the most common and valuable goods here are worth thousands of gold in Qinghai, and the cheapest small wind shell can be sold for 30,000 beli, which is 300 million ike, some people on Angel Island gradually cannot restrain their inner greed. , began to traffic in shells secretly without telling Gan Fuer, and traded with Qinghai people.

Having not experienced the four-year tyrannical rule of El Nilu, Angel Island is full of little masters of committing suicide.

The Lower Sky Island is simpler than the Upper Sky Island, and can be done with just a balloon octopus.

It is impossible for the g10 branch to accept their smuggling license... It has nothing to do with the strict orders of the Warring States Period. As Ron's base, the navy salary here is three times that of other bases!

One part comes from the subsidy paid by the headquarters on time according to military rank, one part is the gray income seized after cleaning up the pirates, Ron took it all and divided it, and the other part comes from the reward and punishment system clearly listed by Ron, who has made great contributions and has a lot of money.

If you look at all naval branches around the world, you won't find a place with more wealth per capita than the G10 Navy.

A month of smuggling with you is not as much as my monthly allowance, and I have to take the big risk of entering Impel Down. Are you 484 stupid

Therefore, the g10 branch is definitely a forbidden area for smugglers, for no other reason: I am rich!

If the G10 branch encounters them and confiscates the goods and sends them back to the country without exception, Ganfu will punish them.

But there are many more smugglers yet to be caught!

They just need to come down to Qinghai and find any merchant to sell it.

With just a small amount of shells, they can buy a large manor on an island full of Bass in Qinghai. From then on, they will have no worries about food and clothing, and have no desire to return to the empty island.

Ganfor's hard work of transporting Bass to Sky Island ended up being worse than letting the residents of Angel Island accept living in Qinghai. It was expected that the nobles of Angel Island would divide the land and start a full-scale war, but they ended up being defeated by their own greed. Nipped in the bud.

It’s really gratifying and gratifying!

However, Ron directly rejected Kulik's request for additional troops to maintain law and order.

"No, we have no right to do that."

"Ah? Why?"

Kulik looked at Ron blankly. Although the smuggling volume was not worth mentioning compared with the navy's transaction volume, it was also a naked provocation to the navy's rules!

"Although I am also very angry about these guys' behavior of picking things up, but this is the fact..."

Ron had enough time to light his cigar and throw the information into the trash can.

"The Navy has only signed trade regulations with Angel Island. Except for the airship port on the White Sea, the Navy does not have any security management rights."

"There are countless franchising and non-franchising countries watching behind us. If we send a large army into Angel Island to maintain law and order, what do you think will happen?"

Kulik was stunned when he heard this: "What will happen?"

Ron blew out a smoke ring and raised the corners of his mouth.

"It will start a war!!"

Kulik shuddered and understood immediately.

The navy is not allowed to use its own military power to interfere in the domestic affairs of the alliance. This is a regulation that is well known throughout the world and set by the world government. It is even said that even for non-franchising countries, the navy will not interfere excessively in their internal affairs, taking into account a series of issues such as image and interests.

No matter how heinous the smuggling of shellfish is today, it is only Angel Island's own internal affairs issue. As long as they do not violate the trade regulations signed with the Navy and do not affect the supply of shellfish, then the Navy has no reason to send troops, regardless of whether the purpose is good or not. bad!
