Ever since he came to this world and been exposed to darkness and gray areas that were not shown in the original work, Ron has always believed that the participating countries in the New World are undoubtedly the most miserable.
Many of their ancestors were from the franchising countries, and they have lived peacefully for hundreds of years without provoking anyone.
As a result, Roger ushered in an era of great pirates. The emergence of the Four Emperors in the new world sandwiched them between the World Government and the Four Emperors, and their lives suddenly became difficult.
All the World Government can provide them is deterrence before the incident and revenge after the incident, and for a mere franchise country to go to war with the Four Emperors, even the Five Old Stars have to consider the consequences, which is almost impossible.
So if you want to live a good life, you can't mess with any of the four emperors.
At the same time, as a franchising country, they cannot turn around and throw themselves into the rule of the Four Emperors like other countries without regard to face, otherwise the Five Old Stars will not let them go.
Judging from the power the World Government has, it cannot defeat the four emperors who are deeply rooted in the New World, but it is still easy to defeat a franchise country.
Poli Island is such a country.
Since the establishment of the Four Emperors pattern, on the one hand, they have paid increasingly huge amounts of sky gold to the government every year to maintain their status as a franchised country and accept naval protection. On the other hand, they have provided high-quality glutinous rice flour to the Big Mom Pirates to make desserts to protect themselves. Safety.
This year, Poli Island was relatively unlucky. Pirates landed and assassinated the king, leading to turmoil. Later, there was a drought for half a year and no crops were harvested.
Seeing that the World Conference in 1518 of the Haiyuan Calendar was about to be held, as a result, all nations failed to collect rent as usual, and half of their land was directly destroyed.
It's not that the Big Mom Pirates have changed their style. You must know that Charlotte Lingling is a ferocious existence who slaughters cities and annihilates countries at the same time. It's that Poli Island is relatively large, and it will take a certain amount of time to destroy it like an ordinary small country.
"No wonder Marshal Kizaru feels embarrassed when he's not here. If we take a warship from our headquarters and then sail to Poli Island, the day lilies will probably be cold."
Standing thousands of meters high in the air, Ron looked down at the islands that were half green and half red and yellow with the dry Jing River under his feet, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
"Bigmom Pirates... Haha!"
At the same time, the former royal palace of Poli Island.
Traces of artillery fire were faintly visible on the mottled and charred walls. The huge palace was devastated, with ruins everywhere. The original flag of Poly Island was torn off and thrown into the sewage. The flag of the Big Mom Pirates fluttered in the wind in the air full of blood and gunpowder smoke.
In the only intact main hall of the palace, there is a king's throne made of gold and lined with precious fur.
It's just that time has changed. The palace that used to be brightly lit and full of people, showing its grace and splendor, now only has dim torches and empty silence. The old king was assassinated by pirates and took away to make a name for himself. The young king is still there. At the age of breastfeeding, the king's throne, which no one had sat on for months, was now occupied by a strong man more than two meters tall.
"Hmph! Do you think it will be okay if you hide in the mountains?"
"Send my order to burn the forest!"
Looking at the information handed over by her subordinates, Charlotte Owen looked disdainful and directly issued a cruel order to set the mountain on fire.
He has golden-orange hair, which is shaped like a flame with three blades. He only wears a cape on his upper body, revealing his strong muscles.
As the fourth son of the Charlotte family, the scorched minister among the thirty-four ministers, and a superhuman hot fruit user, Charlotte Irving is very powerful, even in the new world where there are so many strong men, she is ranked number one. .
"But... Sir Owen..."
The pirate stood up tremblingly, hunched over and whispered: "We haven't found the location of the treasury yet. If the little king dies, we will really be unable to complete the mission assigned by our mother."
As a franchising country with a large area, it stands to reason that even a severe drought for one year will not damage the bones and muscles, and it can still support annual offerings.
But the sudden death of the king could not be tolerated, and the ministers fought for power and profit, which triggered a war.
How did they think that no one knew, the war just started anyway. The royalists and anti-royalists fought, the ministers fought each other, and the people followed suit.
And the war is about food and human lives. When the cannon is fired, there are thousands of taels of gold!
The civilian food was quickly consumed in the war, and only the national treasury had surplus. If the treasury was not found, food could not be found. Without food, the tasks assigned by mother could not be completed.
The task of collecting confessions is performed by the ministers of all countries in shifts every year. If he cannot complete the task within the year he performs it, not to mention that as an elder brother with hundreds of younger brothers and sisters, he will not be able to live with his face, Charlotte Lingling alone will not be able to do it. He just can't get through it.
Owen doesn't want to bear the wrath of "bigmom", it could really cost someone's life!
"Tch! Trouble!"
The fiery-tempered Charlotte Owen had a face full of impatience, and a wave of heat spread, making the pirate's skin dry, but he didn't dare to move.
Fortunately, the name "Mom" made Owen quite afraid, so he thought about it patiently and gave the order.
"Let everyone go in and search the mountain! If you can't find them, I will kill you!"
Originally, it was just a routine matter to collect this year's offerings from the kings who made offerings to Totland of the "All Nations". Unexpectedly, it turned out to be such a troublesome matter. There was only one month left before the deadline, and not even a hair was collected.
From this point of view, both Poli Island and Charlotte Irving just suffered unreasonable disasters.
"yes!!"
After receiving the order, the pirate immediately nodded and saluted, and hurriedly rushed out of the palace.
Soon, a mixed force of tens of thousands of pirates and Homies spread out and headed towards the mountain on the other side of the island.
Owen sat on the throne shaking his legs, tapping his fingers on the armrests impatiently, and suddenly punched down.
Boom!
The golden handrail instantly turned into liquid in front of the terrifying high temperature, and was smashed by fists. Charlotte Owen gritted her teeth with a hint of fear and anger in her eyes.
"Damn pirate!!"
"Pfft...!!"
At this time, suppressed laughter echoed in the empty palace hall. Owen's eyes narrowed and he instantly looked up at a pillar in the corner of the hall. His fist lit up with an orange light, and the air around his fist became distorted in an instant.
"Who's there?!"
"Huh? Nice experience and domineering..."
Unexpectedly, the other party could find his position accurately. Ron stepped out from behind the pillar with a slight surprise. The sharp blade of the Thunder Dragon Square Heavenly Halberd dragged a dark crack on the ground, murderous in the night!
"navy?!"
After seeing Ron's outfit clearly, Charlotte Owen looked solemn.
This is a country that is a member of the World Government. It is not surprising that they would attract the navy when they attack here.
But the other party was able to sneak into the hall silently. If it were an assassination attempt, most of the Charlotte family would not be able to stop him with this ability alone.
and…
"You are...Navy Soryu!!"
Owen's pupils shrank and he recognized Ron.
"Correct answer, but unfortunately there is no reward..."
Uh-huh! !
Suddenly, Ron stepped forward, and a blue light in the air cut through the void and landed on Charlotte Owen's chest.
Tsk…!
At the critical moment, his powerful knowledge and skills saved his life. The seemingly cumbersome Owen fell backwards nimbly in an instant. The Thunder Dragon Fang Tianji only left a blood mark less than one centimeter deep on his chest, and then he quickly He brushed it against his chin.
"Damn it! It's him!!!"
A biting chill instantly surged into Owen's heart. He remembered Charlotte Lingling telling them that if they encountered the navy Kizaru and Soryu, they could simply abandon the mission and escape. He immediately ignored his severed beard and turned around to hit the wall behind the throne. .
boom! !
The hard wall was shattered into pieces by him in an instant, and the outside air rushed in, but the crisis did not dissipate.
"Innocent… "
Behind him, Ron raised his eyelids slightly and uttered a word indifferently.
"fall!"
The thunderclouds that had been accumulating for a long time at an altitude of thousands of meters exploded instantly, and the silver electric light spread wildly in the sky, baring its teeth and claws, and instantly condensed into a silver-white thunder beast that looked up to the sky and roared.
Owen looked up in shock and realized with horror that no matter where he ran, he could not escape the attack range.
"hateful!!"
Thunder cloud unicorn!
