"45 Bailey, thank you for your patronage~"
"Auntie! Don't you have a bigger container if you don't have one at home? This bottle can't even hold 1 Bailey of water."
"Hey, hey, the people behind don't jump in the queue, please obey the law and buy water! We have an unlimited supply of water here, until you don't need it before heading inland and selling it in other cities, don't worry~"
"Who dares to be a scalper and earn money from the president! The president's move "Shangqing Poyun Sword" is thrown away!"
Water, the source of life.
Because "Baroque Studio" secretly purchased a large number of "dancing fans" banned by the world government, and quietly kept artificial rain in the waters near the kingdom of Alabasta, the kingdom of Alabasta lost rain for three years.
It is a kingdom built on the desert itself, and there are not many fresh water reserves; the environment of neighboring countries is not too strong, and it cannot be rescued through diplomatic channels; Gao, there will be no businessman doing this loss-making business - losing these three years of rain is equivalent to shrinking the source of life for the people.
In fact, the kingdom of Alabasta has a huge number of old, weak, sick and disabled people who died due to the shortage of fresh water, representing a large number of infants who died in the future of the country, but "Baroque Studio" itself is a concentration camp for personal scum, and they don't care about the blood debt on it. .
but now!
One empty barrel after another, one empty water tank after another, one empty water bottle after another, and one empty vase after another.
All relatively large containers were transported to the pier, and were moved into the cabin of the "God of Fortune" by a team of androids who didn't know how to get tired, and returned full of clean and pollution-free fresh water after a circle.
This kind of thing has been going on for three days, and every resident is continuing the process of "moving out the empty container", "queuing up to buy water", and "moving the container full of fresh water home". They are thirsty, so it is not enough to fill the container with water, even if they temporarily dig a cellar at home to fill with water, they are also willing!
Of course, it's not just the residents of this small town that have benefited. "A lot of cheap fresh water" is enough to attract residents of several nearby cities across the desert. In other words, it's not just the people in this small town who have removed their anxiety about the kingdom.
[Crockdale's plan is rapidly collapsing.]
…
"Chopper, trouble you~~ It's not convenient for us to go out." Chopper, who had firmly covered herself under the cloak, had transformed into a giant form, and apologized.
Chopper is a reindeer that has taken the "Human Fruit". In addition to the small humanoid, the big humanoid, and the prototype of the reindeer, there are also many enhanced forms after taking special pills. Luffy and others are entering the great route. The first partner received after.
"Ah, it doesn't matter, after all, I'm the only one who has never been seen by the Navy... Eh!?" When Chopper loaded the bucket full of fresh water onto the carriage, he saw Luffy lying on top with a bruised face.
"Ah, don't worry about that idiot, just let him lie there, I don't want to be chased by the navy when I leave the town." In order to confirm whether the "God of Fortune" can supply unlimited fresh water, Princess Weiwei specially After staying in this port town for three days, he was chased and killed four times by the navy headed by Smoker. Every time, Luffy changed his posture and happened to meet Smoker. Nami was really tired.
"Haha..." Chopper, who instantly knew who the culprit was, shuddered, and hurriedly shut up and continued to carry water.
"However, I really didn't expect to fill up the fresh water reserves in the Kingdom of Alabasta," Nami looked at the "God of Fortune" that was still selling fresh water, "I also want to have a [Water Filler] on board. , at least you can take a shower every day and sleep comfortably."
"That's too wasteful, Miss Nami~" Princess Weiwei smiled bitterly, also looking away, "If possible, I really want to keep the man named 'Danteng' in Alabasta forever, Whatever the cost. After all, even without Crocodile's intervention, Alabasta is a desert country that lacks fresh water."
Nami's face straightened, "... Vivi, are you really not going to meet Ikalem? Now, you can not only try to poach the [Water-Irrigation Person] who is enough to solve the civil strife in Alabasta as a princess. , and get the assistance of the navy that has already planned to intervene."
"...Miss Nami, why don't you leave Alabasta now? Leave this matter to the Navy?" Wei Wei answered without asking.
"Didn't I say, I'm going to charge you for escorting you back to China~" Nami put on a sedum-like expression of belonging to the "Fortune Fan" family, but then changed to a very helpless look, pointing to someone on the carriage. People, "And our stupid captain, never knew what it means to give up halfway."
"Thank you..." Weiwei glanced at the "God of Fortune" again with nostalgia, and turned around decisively, "My words, because there are still things to do as the princess of this country!"
…
Not only the "Straw Hat Pirates", but also the cadres of the Revolutionary Army who secretly sneaked into the town, silently watching the freshwater sale activity of the "God of Wealth Chamber of Commerce".
"...There is no doubt that the total amount of fresh water they sell has already exceeded the normal reserve, even if their ship is so huge." Like Wei Wei, the leader of the revolutionary army, Kou Sha, is also confirming "is the "God of Wealth Chamber of Commerce" really? Unlimited supply of fresh water".
"Kosha, what are we going to do now?" a cadre asked.
Kosha looked at him coldly, "Now that you know the truth, is there any other option besides 'dissolution'?"
"..." The cadres were silent.
Feng Klei, whom Remilia and Hong Meiling brought over, was actually not enough for them to fully agree with the rhetoric that "the mastermind behind the scenes is Crocodile". But then the two used the "Mission System" to dig out some grassroots members of the "Baroque Studio" hidden inside the revolutionary army, and after another torture, they no longer had any reason to believe!
In fact, Kosha and others later conducted a major inspection of the internal staff. All members had to check whether there were tattoos of "Baroque Studio" on their bodies, and as a result, hundreds of undercover agents were dug up.
Kosha put his right hand on the shoulder of his most trusted confidant, "After disbanding, please form an army immediately. Some people help transport the fresh water to other cities. Before the "God of Wealth Chamber of Commerce" moves inland, there are many more. People in other places are suffering; some people help to dig a water storage tank in this small town to store a little more fresh water now; some people are lurking in the town, I am worried that Crocodile will send people to hinder the good deeds of the "Fortune Chamber of Commerce"."
"What about you, Kosha?!" The confidant said in shock, he thought that this kind of thing should be led by Kosha himself.
Kosha shook his head: "Even though I was only used by Crocodile, I was still the murderer who caused the civil war and killed many citizens..."
"..." Everyone bowed their heads, Kosha was the murderer, so why not.
"—Now, there is a more suitable place for me to go!"
