Will Ron show mercy just because his opponent is Shanks, who has a murky relationship with the government

The answer is clear to everyone.

Including Shanks himself.

So when the Redfors appeared, Ron understood immediately that the purpose of Shanks' trip was indeed pure gold.

But unlike those pirates who wanted to rob, those people's motives were purely for themselves, while he was for the balance of the sea.

This was not... a situation he wanted to see.

So Ron used words to force Shanks to take action, because even if he was defeated, he would never be defeated.

As long as he stops Shanks and others' plan, he will be the winner.

Beckman's feeling was correct. Ron did know what they were going to do, but he deduced the answer not through intelligence means, but simply based on the timing of their appearance.

However, what Ron didn't expect was that the Five Old Stars also saw this!

For the same multiple-choice question, Ron's choice and Wulaoxing's choice are naturally different.

but…

"Buckle beans and dig roads!!!"

"Nani?!"

Ron ignored the shock of the five old stars, but looked straight over, his eyes falling on Shanks' back.

"These pirates, come and kill one by one, come and kill a bunch of them. Killing one is evil, killing ten thousand is a hero!"

"This is the oath I, 'Cang Long' Ron, once made!"

"Do you want me to break my promise? Master Wulaoxing... Where does my face belong?!"

"Asshole!!!"

The bearded Five Old Star was furious and roared: "Don't forget your identity, Ron."

"Why is your face important when the safety of government rule is at stake?!"

"You are the navy, the government's military!"

"I want you to obey orders!!"

"I know I'm a Marine, but I still say no!!!"

Ron said seriously: "The threat that a pirate like Shanks can bring to the government is definitely far greater than the pirate coalition currently surrounding Shampoo Land."

"Don't you understand the difference between these?!"

"you… "

Wulaoxing and others were speechless after hearing this.

indeed.

Who is Shanks

The four emperors of the new world back then!

The mighty king of the sea!

How could the threat that might arise from letting him live be comparable to that of a group of pirate alliances that rose up out of greed

But, that’s not how the problem works out.

The connection between them and Shanks is far deeper than Ron thought. Their move was not only to attract the attention of the pirates, but also to save their own face.

Therefore, Shanks must not die in this meaningless struggle.

He also has greater use value.

But facing Ron, the Five Old Stars couldn't say anything.

It’s really shameless!

As the highest decision-making level, they actually want to use the power of pirates to maintain their rule. This is the power of pirates through and through, not the Xibei goods like the Shichibukai who accept Zhao'an.

How could you ask them to talk about such an unsightly thing

so…

"I will only safeguard the government's dominance, not your... Wulaoxing's face!"

Seeing that the topic was brought up, Ron spoke coldly.

"I have also seen the existence of that adult. I know why I am fighting! Please do not completely link your status to the government's rule."

"In this world, except for that adult, no one must exist."

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the five people in the Holy Land office suddenly changed.

The bearded Five Old Star asked with a sullen face.

"Are you planning to rebel? Canglong!"

"We are the managers chosen by that Lord. If we go against our wishes, we are enemies of that Lord!"

“Stop putting such big hat on me!!”

Ron responded without fear: "When that adult chose you, he didn't expect that things would turn out like this."

"Roger opened up the Great Pirate Age, the Four Emperors separatized the new world, and the current pure gold crisis, which one didn't happen after you were elected?!"

"If that adult had known that what happened later would happen, what do you think would have happened to you?!"

"You... cough, cough, cough!"

There was a coughing sound on the phone, and the Five Old Stars' lips trembled with anger, but they couldn't find a reason to refute.

The same managers who were selected faced threats that were many times more difficult than those of previous managers.

To blame, I really can only blame this era, they did not catch up with the good years.

"Our navy is fighting life and death outside, but you stabbed the knife in the back again and again. Under the banner of government rule, in fact, you just want to save your face as a ruler, making trouble again and again, causing turmoil in the sea... I want to ask you, what are your intentions?"

"You are not qualified to know these things... You are not worthy, do you understand?!"

Wulaoxing roared at a loss for words.

"Oh, that's how it is… "

Status and rights, identity and the right to know are institutional issues that the government cannot get around.

Ron calmed down after hearing this, which made Wulaoxing suddenly have an ominous premonition in his heart.

Sure enough, after a moment of pause, Ron said lightly: "Then ask that adult to come out and uphold justice. If he agrees with your idea, I, Canglong, will volunteer to go to the military court!"

"I believe that he who knows everything will definitely give me a fair answer."

Bald Ling stood by and was completely stunned. When Ron and Wulaoxing got into a fight, he looked at him in disbelief as if he had seen a ghost.

And when Ron said that he wanted to bring this matter to the adult, Zero suddenly woke up.

"Wulao Xing, you've been fooled!"

As the holder of the first-class Medal of Glory, Ron even has the right to take the initiative to meet Im. This is the honor and confidence given to him by Im, and it is definitely not something that the five old stars as managers are qualified to deny.

However, if you think about it from his perspective, does Wulaoxing really want to cause trouble in front of Lord Im in this incident

No, absolutely not!

That's a sign of their incompetence!

Regardless of luck or strength, all the disturbances caused in the past few decades are far greater than any period in the previous 800 years of history. They have been like dynamite and have aroused Im's dissatisfaction more than once.

Any eternal royal ruler will definitely not like subordinates who cause trouble to him again and again.

And now this incident is enough to ignite the fuse of the pile of gunpowder.

especially…

At this critical point in history when the Tianlong people are facing annihilation, any slightest disturbance will arouse Im's overwhelming anger.

Ron's move seemed to be about retreating in order to advance, but in fact it was purely about killing people and killing people.

The Five Old Stars, the Five Old Stars who are the highest decision-makers in the government, will suffer a big loss this time!

The bearded Five Old Star had a gloomy face and spoke with murderous intent.

"What if we don't agree?"

"Then don't blame me for turning against others! Don't forget, my lords, in addition to the navy, I... am also a glorious noble!"

In addition to the status of admiral, the status of glorious nobleman is the symbol of Ron's true status.

This is a person with a noble status who will not be in trouble if he beats the "World Noble" Tianlong. On the contrary, someone will stand up to mediate and resolve conflicts for them. The Five Old Stars will never be able to ignore it.

It's just that Ron hasn't used his privileges much.

The Five Old Stars could stop Ron, who was a marine, from bringing matters to Im, but they could not stop Ron, who was an honorable noble and a first-level honorable noble.

In other words…

Wulaoxing must pay the price for this! !

To bear Im's wrath! !

Shanks lay on the ground panting rapidly, trying to raise his head, trying to say something.

He wanted to say that it would be better for him to die here, because he had already lost the battle, and even if he claimed that he had taken the pure gold, it would not last long.

But both parties will definitely not agree with this result.

Yes, both sides!

Five old stars and Ron.

Because he has seen that Ron's real target is not him at all!

His real purpose is to take advantage of the turmoil surrounding Pure Gold's birth to seize power!

Even if you can't get it, you still have to let the status of the Five Old Stars plummet!

This is the real disaster for everyone in this world!

Because Ron is very likely to intervene in the world government and gain core power!
