"Since this matter is settled, I'll take the first step."
Tezzolo stood up and bowed slightly to indicate to several people.
Having avenged his great revenge, he had a "weird" smile on his face from the moment he entered the door. You can even read a bit of sadness and a bit of anger from that smile, like a madman, which is hard to watch. Clear your mind.
"By the way, I need your help with something, Tezzolo."
Ron suddenly spoke, took out a document from the drawer and handed it to him.
"oh?"
Looking back in surprise, Tezzolo quickly suppressed his smile and took the document: "Lieutenant General Canglong has an order. I just follow my orders."
In any case, the four people currently in the office are grasshoppers on the same rope.
With Cang Long taking the lead, this is a result that everyone can accept.
"Help me investigate the internal situation of Wano Country, especially the arms trade between them and the government. I need information... the more detailed the better!"
It is hard to believe that among the arms and weapons equipped in the hands of the navy and government soldiers, only a small number of top-secret technological gadgets are actually manufactured by our own companies, such as airships, warships, electromagnetic guns, etc.
In addition, most of the common goods, such as flintlock muskets, old-fashioned artillery, even sea-tower stone handcuffs and iron swords that almost everyone is equipped with, are obtained through government trade.
The previous government's largest arms trade target... huh? Who is coming
Ron paused for a second and continued: "In addition to the Shichibukai Lao Cai of the Flower Country of the West Sea, the government's largest arms trading partner is General Black Snake of Wano Country."
"But I believe you also know that 'Hundred Beasts' Kaido has been working closely with them."
"I want to know what they are planning specifically. If not, I can get the government's trade data with them and analyze it."
This kind of thing cannot be accomplished in one infiltration, it will only be a protracted battle that is time-consuming and labor-intensive.
Unless Kaido suddenly jumps out to find someone to fight, if you want to know the detailed information, you can only inquire bit by bit.
After all, it is the "closed-door" country of Wano.
The absolute natural danger that even naval warships cannot enter gave them enough confidence to ignore the vicissitudes of life, huddle inside the island, close the door and enjoy themselves.
However, what happens is that time and effort = money. What does it matter in the face of Tezzolo's "golden" thigh
He has plenty of money!
The only thing left for the poor is money!
Anything that can be settled with money is nothing!
"I see, I understand!"
With that said, Tezzolo's weird smile appeared on his face again, he nodded and said goodbye to everyone, opened the door and walked out.
…
A few days later, as the government issued an announcement, the whole world was shocked!
The "tyrant" Bartholomew Bear, one of the King's Shichibukai, was arrested by Navy Soryu for having ties to the revolutionary army.
… All right.
This is a family scandal of the government. Except for a few caring people, no one cares about this news.
At most, the big pirates who were active at sea began to have some strange ideas after the bear's fall. They kept showing off themselves, just like male peacocks during the courtship period, trying their best to display their posture in an attempt to attract the attention of the government.
Excluding the bloody process in which they displayed themselves, there is nothing wrong with this description.
Then…
The world's greatest swordsman, "Eagle Eye" Mihawk, was killed on the spot due to a duel with Soryu! ! !
If the previous news just boiled the cold water in the ocean, then this news is like pouring oil into the hot pot, causing an instant uproar.
Xiong is definitely not comparable to Mihawk in terms of popularity. He is at best a Shichibukai active in the Grand Line and a government loyal dog in the eyes of outsiders.
Except for the guys who were more concerned about the three major forces of the sea after entering the Grand Line, few people would specifically inquire about a rough-looking man.
But Mihawk is different!
Even if he does nothing, as long as he exists, there will be countless people asking for news about him.
Because he is "the greatest swordsman in the world"! ! !
Any human or non-human who holds a katana in his hand, pirates, navy, the Grand Line, the Four Seas... Anyone who calls himself a swordsman will be extremely interested in the names "Eagle Eye" and "Jorac Mirmihawk" familiar!
That is their constant pursuit in this life. To challenge him and become the new number one is their eternal dream!
But you told me today, this goal, oh, it’s gone if you don’t? !
Suddenly, the whole world was in an uproar!
The Grand Line, on an unknown island.
"What happened to Zoro?"
Sanji walked out of the room with a cigarette in his mouth and frowned silently as he looked at Zoro standing in the Rainstorm Square holding a sword.
"have no idea."
Robin shook his head, closed the book, and followed Sanji's gaze.
"Perhaps, looking for a way forward."
"Compared to this, Luffy hasn't woken up yet?"
"You know, Ace is his brother after all... not to mention he was so seriously injured."
Sanji was a little silent when he heard this. The cigarette in his hand burned to the end, and the holder burned yellow spots on his fingers before he woke up.
"Yeah, that's his brother after all."
Robin made an incomprehensible murmur and slowly touched his arm, feeling a little chilly in his body.
Sanji very gentlemanly took off his coat and put it on her shoulders. The two of them had no intention of continuing to communicate. They just looked at Zoro who was motionless in the rainstorm and let time pass by slowly.
New World, Redfors.
"Mihawk..."
The heavy rain was pounding, making the deck crackle.
An oil lamp was lit in the room, and the dim yellow sparks covered half of Shanks' face in shadow.
His haggard face and hair that hadn't been taken care of for several days made him look very bad, but his eyes were frighteningly bright in the dim environment.
"There's no need to do this, Mihawk!"
"Why are you dying?!"
"You don't have to, Shanks."
In the room, Beckman leaned against the wall and silently exhaled smoke.
"You know, he is not the kind of man who would risk his life just for your favor. This is his own decision."
"But I gave him the opportunity to make that decision."
Shanks' body flashed with a hint of domineering mixed with murderous intent, causing dense cracks to suddenly appear in the wall. The orange wick swayed and swayed as if it was about to go out.
“…”
Beckman was speechless.
is that so
Maybe so.
But in his opinion, even without Shanks, Mihawk would have headed for the road of no return... Perhaps, he had already walked on that road, but he had not been reminded.
Once people become bored, it is a terrible thing.
Since Shanks lost his hand, Mihawk's only remaining target is Whitebeard, who is also the "world's number one" but "the world's strongest".
However, the navy blue dragon was born, and in just a few years, he became a murderous man who made the sea roar with thunder and all the vegetation. Later, he even single-handedly killed Big Mom... What kind of joke is it to say that you are not interested in fighting him
As long as a swordsman sets his target at that position, he has actually embarked on a path of self-destruction.
Mihawk is just the person who has gone the furthest on this road in this era.
However, others will not have Beckman's vision and wisdom.
The West Sea, the North Sea, the South China Sea, and the East China Sea, the whole world is boiling because of Mihawk's fall!
Countless swordsmen resolutely embarked on the road of no return to the sea!
Go to the mysterious sea area known as the "Pirate Graveyard"!
Why
Of course, it's because Mihawk fell and a throne became vacant without anyone to replace him.
From this point of view, the impact of Mihawk's death is comparable to the frenzy caused by Roger's public execution on the day.
The world therefore followed his wishes.
No one, stop!
