"No...Oh no, Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!
”
In the royal palace of the Kingdom of Tevaroyinli, a soldier stumbled into the king's bedroom.
King Joshuel, who was sleeping with two beauties in his arms, sat up from the bed impatiently when he heard the noise. He looked at the soldier angrily and said, "What happened? If you don't tell me the reason, I will have someone chop you down right away."
"Your Majesty, someone broke into the palace. All the guards inside and outside the palace were...all taken care of by them!"
The soldier swallowed and spoke with a stammer.
As soon as he finished speaking, Joe Xiu, who was not even wearing any underwear, stood up from the bed.
"Have they all been dealt with? I have arranged 5,000 guards in my palace. Is there not a single one left?"
"Not to mention one, there's not even half left." The soldier shook his head.
"how so.."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Xuer's face was immediately covered with sweat.
Who is it
The 5,000 soldiers he had arranged in his palace were all elite soldiers who had fought in the battlefield before. Even some well-known pirate groups in the Grand Line could hardly match them. But now...
He was panicking, but when he glanced at the soldier who came to report the news, Qiao Xiuer suddenly remembered something and asked in confusion, "You just said...there are no soldiers left?"
"That's right."
"Then who...who are you?" Qiao Xuer asked with a trembling voice.
"Me?"
When the soldier heard this question, he immediately raised his head and grinned, revealing a very evil smile.
"Of course I'm here to kill you."
After saying that, a flash of knife light appeared.
Qiao Xuer fainted with an extremely terrified expression.
"You are such a coward."
Seeing this, the "soldier" took off his helmet, and a handsome face was revealed. It was the Thunder Swordsman, former Navy Admiral, sharpshooter, Captain of the Second Division of the Whitebeard Pirates, and the new ruler of the World Government, Alfred Vivian.
“Hiss~~”
With a cigar in his mouth, he used his domineering look to stun the two women on the bed. Vivian then walked forward, picked up Joshuel, and disappeared out of the window in a flash.
...
Half a month later.
Of the sixty-four non-member kingdoms, nearly thirty kings mysteriously disappeared. According to the royal guards who witnessed the entire process, it seemed that those who broke into the palace were soldiers from the remaining thirty-odd countries.
In this case, it is natural for countries to be suspicious of each other.
Taro Kingdom.
Inside the town meeting room.
King Adrian of the Taro Kingdom sat at the front of the long table and looked at the other twenty or so kings who had just arrived today. He said with a serious expression, "I think you all know why I called everyone here today, right?"
"Of course I know."
The kings answered sparsely, either with disdain or anger, but without exception, everyone was a little angry, and some even looked at other people around them with a hint of murderous intent.
"Then I won't say any more nonsense."
Adrian asked the servant beside him to bring a form, and then continued: "These are the testimonies of the guards of various palaces. Almost every country among us has been accused. Do you have anything to say about this?"
"What do we want to talk about?"
The King of the Banana Kingdom, which was located in the front half of the Grand Line, stood up first, pointed at Adrian and cursed: "Adrian, I think you are crying thief, right? Everyone here knows that your Taro Kingdom has the strongest military force. It would be easy to send some stronger soldiers to disguise them as people from other countries, wouldn't it?"
"oh?"
Hearing this, Adrian immediately smiled, narrowed his eyes, and asked back: "Then what is the purpose of me doing this?"
"Purpose?"
Someone snorted coldly, and then echoed the King of the Banana Country, "Of course, he wants to take advantage of this great opportunity to unify the sixty-four countries and become the greatest overlord!"
"So, you want to secretly take over the sixty-four countries and establish a new government that can fight against the World Government, right?"
"That's right. This alliance of sixty-four nations was initiated by you from the very beginning. This is the real purpose of your idea, right?"
There were more and more questions, and the meeting room was about to get out of control. Suddenly, a white light flashed, and the kings who were arguing just now all hunched over at the same time and fell to the ground with painful expressions.
"ah.."
"What...what happened?"
"what happens?!"
Glancing at the skin on their arms that was beginning to turn slightly red, the kings all showed expressions of horrification.
But the next second, when a dark-skinned, extremely ordinary-looking man who had never said anything from beginning to end suddenly stood up from the end of the long table, Adrian, the king of Taro, immediately knelt on the ground and kowtowed to him.
"Master Zero, please don't be angry."
Yes, that's right, this ordinary-looking man is Zero, the former leader of CP0 who escaped from the battlefield of Marijoa that day.
Now that he has taken off his mask and appears with his own face, Zero is even more mysterious than before.
There's no way. Anyone who has seen Zero in the past only recognizes what his mask looks like, but no one has ever seen his true face.
"Only twenty-two? What about the remaining nine?" Zero looked at Adrian expressionlessly.
"Replying to Master Zero, the remaining nine have refused today's meeting."
Those nine guys were all suspicious by nature, so it was impossible for them to do something stupid like the other twenty or so kings who came to the Taro Kingdom and offered themselves to the enemy. Therefore, it would take a lot of effort to catch them all in one fell swoop.
"Who do you think is responsible for taking away those thirty kings?"
Zero sat down at the conference table, stepped on the back of one of the kings, and said to Adrien.
"The culprit?"
Adrian thought for a moment before answering, "I think it's very likely that the Revolutionary Army did it. After all, they know about our alliance of sixty-four nations. I think it's impossible for them not to take some action."
"The Revolutionary Army?"
Upon hearing this, Ling suddenly started laughing strangely.
"I should thank them for helping me solve such a big trouble in advance."
