Chapter 28 New Events

After Nakahara Chuuya agreed to cooperate and left, Ace finally realized what Moriogai had just done.

He actually regarded himself as a threat to Nakahara Chuuya!

This is hard to comment.

He had never heard of such an operation!

Of course, it could also be because such a bizarre situation between him and Mr. Ouwai is rare to see.

But even so! There are very few people who can do this, right! ?

Ace hesitated to speak, [Mr. Ouwai, just now...]

[Just now? Ah, come to think of it, Ace-kun, you want Chuuya-kun to be our companion, right?]

Ace had no resistance to this kind of leading words, and was directly led away: [Yes, but I don’t want to use this deceptive method...]

【Ace-kun.】 Mori Ougai interrupted him, 【What do you think of the members of the Sheep Organization?】

[Huh?] Ace was stunned for a moment, and thought back to the three people he had met before. [I haven't met all the sheep people, but...] At this point, Ace's voice was a little heavy, [Based on the three sheep people I met, I felt that they didn't treat Chuuya like a leader. Even if he was a companion, he...]

That kind of suspicion came too lightly.

Sen Ou flipped through the documents on the table, and pulled out a document in size 10 print from under a pile of documents at the corner of the table. He placed it flat on the table and said, "Take a look."

Having said that, Moriogai didn't really intend to let Ace read and understand all of it. After all, it was a bit difficult for him to read it fluently.

"This is some information that the organization left behind when it was investigating the Sheep Organization. The Sheep was a minor self-defense organization that was organized not long after the formation of Raybo Street. It had no food source, no weapons, and even very insufficient physical strength. Its only advantage was its number of people, but this was also insignificant compared to other organizations. In the early stages, it could be said to be a grassroots force in Raybo Street."

Mori Ogai first introduced the origin of Yang, and then continued: "The turning point came from the joining of Nakahara Chuuya. He is a very powerful psychic, one person is enough to be a thousand people. Yang has since had a place in the Raibo Street."

After briefly and objectively introducing the connection between the two, Mori Ogai began to talk about what the Sheep Organization had done over the years: "With the protection of Chuuya Nakahara's special ability, the Sheep's voice in Raybo Street has become increasingly stronger, and it has begun to spread that anyone who dares to harm the Sheep will be retaliated tenfold. At first, there were some small organizations of a dozen people in Raybo Street, and later there were dozens of people. The record of fighting against Chuuya Nakahara is that they were annihilated."

Although it is not wrong to say that Morio used language to subtly turn the struggle between organizations into that of the organizations and Chuuya Nakahara himself.

"Later, Yang started to target the two largest organizations in Yokohama, the Takase-kai and the Port Mafia, stealing supplies and reselling them. This has been happening in the past two years, and the Yang organization has begun to expand. Dazai-kun mentioned it just now, right? This time, it was the people from the Yang organization who first came to steal the alcohol and beverages in our warehouse No. 16, so they were arrested."

Ace was silent for a while, and he got what Mori Ogai wanted to say. He asked: "So the Sheep Organization has been established for... 7 years, right? Aside from Chuuya, are there no other famous members?"

Mori Ogai knew that his meaning had been conveyed to him when he asked such a question. He smiled and said, "No."

【hiss……】

So, after seven years, apart from Chuuya Nakahara, there is no one else worth mentioning in the organization?

Ace had already figured out the combat effectiveness of the Port Mafia when he challenged them one by one. Not to mention those with special abilities, even many of those without special abilities were quite strong. Each of these people had impressive combat records. If Yang had nothing to show for himself, how could they dare to provoke the Port Mafia?

It can't really all depend on Nakahara Chuuya, right?

In the past seven years, if he had worked hard to train himself, he would not be unknown to Zhongyuan Chuye, right? You know, when he first went to sea to answer the wanted order of the Shanghai Army, he was not a person with special abilities! Many of his crew members were not people with special abilities, but their brilliance was not overshadowed by him!

Tsk, sheep won’t do.

[So, Ace-kun, do you still think that Chuuya-kun should stay with the sheep?] Mori Owl leaned his head and said nonchalantly, his voice became cold, [The sheep will use Chuuya-kun quite thoroughly. Without Chuuya-kun, the sheep would never have come to this point today. Without Chuuya-kun, the sheep would immediately be torn to pieces by the surrounding wolves. Fear, use, suspicion, betrayal... One day, Chuuya-kun will be eaten up by this hyena in sheep's clothing.]

This time, Nakahara Chuuya was silent for a long time. Moriowa simply read the documents sent by the Intelligence Department not long ago, and then heard Ace's low voice saying: "This is also his choice, I will not interfere. I have said before that if he insists on his own path, I will not stop him. If he wants to leave Yang, of course I will accept him. 】

No one said anything except Mori Owl.

It was because he already knew Ace's thoughts on the matter that he did these little things behind his back to ensure that he achieved his goal.

He knew exactly what methods Dazai would use to make Nakahara Chuuya compromise, and Dazai also knew that he would acquiesce to his approach and there was no need for any further communication, but Ace didn't know.

The Dazai Osamu he had seen was only in his daily state, which was just like a rebellious kid. He had never seen the cruel and ruthless Dazai Osamu when he was carrying out a mission, and he didn't know what style Dazai Osamu used when doing things.

As a result, without revealing any relevant information, Dazai Osamu and Mori Ogai knew the plan well, but Ace, who knew nothing about it, was completely kept in the dark.

"Then let's treat this as a test for the sheep." Mori Ogai said, "Ace-kun, don't go see Chuuya-kun until I say it's okay."

【……oh.】

…

In the evening, when Ace had just finished memorizing a page of vocabulary and was about to give him dictation, the colonel came over.

Compared to other officers, Moriogai and Ace have relatively little communication with him (of course, this does not include Officer A who bought the position).

"Chief."

Ace, who had stuffed his homework into the drawer before the other person came in, asked politely, "It's so late, what's the matter?"

He remembered that the colonel's more troublesome tasks had all come to an end, and he was not asked to interfere in matters concerning the previous leader this time, so he should be off work at this point?

"Indeed, there is a rather troublesome, but also very urgent matter." The colonel said neatly, "A batch of drugs has flowed into Yokohama recently. I wonder if you have seen this intelligence?"

Ace frowned, "Drugs?"

This thing also existed in his original world. After someone on an island got hold of it, he turned the entire country into his piggy bank and even forced the king to give up power. The whole country was in chaos. Later, the revolutionary army organized the people on the island to resist. After a war, the matter came to an end.

Because this country is a member of the World Government, such an incident would be considered a scandal of the World Government, so the World Government has blocked the news of this incident. He also heard about it from his comrades in the Intelligence Department of the Whitebeard Pirates.

Mori Ogai seemed to be thinking about something. [The colonel suddenly mentioned this. Could it be that someone in the organization is involved?]

The unique political situation in Yokohama made the governance here quite chaotic, and naturally some inferior things would pour in. This included the organ trade they mentioned before, the drugs they were talking about now, and the human trafficking that Ace had not encountered yet.

During the previous leader's time, these things were actually involved, but they were managed in a more standardized manner. After Mori Ougai came to power, human trafficking stopped, drug trafficking was gradually reduced, and a ban was issued to prohibit members of the organization from getting involved in drugs.

He wanted to ban drug trafficking directly, but this was the one with the highest pure profit among all illegal activities, and even Mori Ougai couldn't stop it all at once. Moreover, his reign was in a turbulent period due to rumors of revenge by the previous leader, and the crackdown on drugs would bring another shock. Adding the two together, even Mori Ougai couldn't handle it.

Members who were addicted to drugs before have been forced to quit, and those who relapse after quitting will be dealt with according to their level. Low-level members are directly expelled from the port mafia, and members who have mastered certain internal intelligence are forced to quit drugs and tortured.

The Port Mafia needs strong military strength, but drugs will inevitably destroy people's body and spirit. Once they become popular in the organization, the armed forces of the Port Mafia will basically be useless. Moreover, people who are addicted to drugs will have great uncertainty. If Moriou prohibits drugs internally, they will turn to seek outside, which will make it easy for other organizations to take advantage of them.

What's more, Mori Ogai's ultimate goal is to make the Port Mafia the only underground organization in Yokohama, so that Yokohama can maintain a relatively peaceful and stable situation.

He had seen the information about drugs flowing into Yokohama from the intelligence department not long ago, but he didn't take it seriously at the time. It was impossible for Yokohama to implement drug control. Under the current situation, he just had to ensure that his organization was not eroded by drugs.

"Yes." The colonel nodded. "Some of the lower-level members were infected. I caught a few, but I don't know exactly how many people were infected."

The colonel is in charge of the armed forces. Moreover, he has served in the military before, so he knows very well how harmful drugs are.

[This is such a hassle...] Mori Ogai had a headache, [Ace, let him focus on this matter from now on, and thoroughly check all the people below the officers. For all the drug addicts, the lower-level members should be forced to undergo drug rehabilitation according to the previous method, and the middle and higher-level members should be controlled. Make a list for me. Also, check the channels from which these drugs came in.]
