The newcomer, dressed in a mandarin jacket reminiscent of the Flower Kingdom and wearing a hat, strode in.
"Love?"
David was taken aback. "Why are you here? Shouldn't you be on the sightseeing cruise?"
"Something came up, so I came first."
Lowe said, "Of course, because of this, on my way here I saw a drifting unmanned boat, reported by the World Economic News. It had a relatively complete industrial structure inside, and it should be Morgans's boat, but I didn't see any of Morgans's people or his employees. I guess it abandoned ship. I don't know why, but it doesn't matter. What matters is... you have it."
"Love!"
The three of them stood up at the same time, and David said excitedly, "I really don't know how to thank you."
If you want to thank me, then give up your idea of helping Kuro rebel; it's too creepy!
But Lowe dared not say this, for fear that Kuro would find out and silence him.
Moreover, he also...
Lowe shook his head: "Then let's talk about something else. Your tourism industry has run into trouble."
These words startled the three of them.
"What's wrong with the sightseeing boat?" Cass asked.
Kuro's Half of Gran Tesoro has been transformed into a sightseeing boat, preserving many of Tesoro's industries. Not only can you enjoy a one-stop experience of eating, drinking, and entertainment on board, but you can also stop at islands along the route to explore the local customs and culture of each developed island.
Since the business had just opened, David certainly wouldn't miss the opportunity and invited the king, with whom he had made a good relationship at the World Conference.
The person in charge of flight safety is Cass.
If something goes wrong... that's his responsibility.
“It’s not a sightseeing boat,” Lowe said. “The sightseeing boat is still halfway there. No pirate would be so blind as to ignore the security of that boat. It’s your island that has been robbed.”
"What?!" David exclaimed in surprise, "What happened to the island?"
Cass and Wilbur clenched their fists instinctively, their faces contorted with anger. Whether it was the sightseeing boat or the islands along the route, these were all tasks assigned to them by Mr. Kuro. Now that they had been hijacked, didn't that mean they had failed in their duties?
"Well, don't get so worked up. For you, it's both a bad thing and a good thing."
Lowe said, "The island is fine, and the people on the island are fine too. It's just that something happened to your nobles; they were kidnapped by pirates."
Abducting nobles?
David frowned and asked, "Is it to collect a ransom?"
“I don’t know, there’s been no news.” Lowe shook his head.
"etc..."
At this moment, David suddenly realized what was happening, looked at Lowe, and asked in a deep voice, "Why would you say this is a good thing?"
"Well...who knows?" Lowe shrugged. "I'm just here for the opening ceremony, and I'm just passing on some information to you guys."
He turned around and waved his hand. "You all continue. Pretend I don't exist. Have the guards give me a room. I want to explore Dressrosa."
As Lowe left, the three of them frowned in unison.
What did he find out?
But how did he know?
Did they leak the information themselves?
No, this man is the brother of Miss Lida, that important person to the master. Perhaps he already knew something...
"This is outrageous! This is an insult to us!"
Cass stood up and was about to leave when he said, "Mr. Kuro entrusted us with such an important task, and we actually made a mistake. It's our fault. Once we catch that pirate and rescue those people, I will apologize to Mr. Kuro!"
etc!
Snap!
A glint flashed in David's eyes, and he punched his left fist into his right palm, suddenly realizing something.
“Cass, wait a minute!” David called out.
"What's wrong?" Cass asked, turning his head.
"This is not your business, it is my business. Let me handle it. The master sent you here not mainly to protect the shipping lanes."
"But that's our mission after all!"
Cass frowned and said, "If we let this go unchecked, it would be against justice!"
really...
Cass's words made David even more enlightened.
“No, let me do it. I’ll handle this. I’m the king. The pirates have captured my nobles. Cass, you have more important matters to attend to. Of course, I’ll go to Wilbur if necessary,” David advised.
“Hmm... since you insist.” Cass frowned slightly.
Since David insisted on this, Cass naturally respected his decision.
“Well, Cass, you have more important things to do. The Master sent you here not just to escort the route, but more to fulfill his long-cherished wish for peace and justice. The sightseeing boat will be here soon. If you are worried, go and escort it first.”
David's words referred only to Cass, without mentioning Wilbur, which caused a glint to flash in the latter's eyes.
Cass nodded and walked out. After he left, Wilbur frowned and said, "What do you want to do, David?"
David shook his head: "This is not suitable for Cass. His strong sense of justice cannot bear to see pirates slaughtering innocent people."
Even if someone is a nobleman, if they haven't done anything shameful, then in Cass's eyes, they are an innocent person.
“But Lowe’s message is different. It’s not appropriate for your navy to take action in this matter. Wilbur, you need to keep an eye on Cass and prevent him from going to that pirate.”
David said, "Love is Miss Lida's brother. Miss Lida is a very important person to the master. As someone who has always followed him, she couldn't possibly be unaware of the master's long-cherished wish. And now that Love has come and told me that the nobles have been captured by pirates, instead of being notified by the navy or anyone else, it in itself represents a message, a message that allows me to make a decision."
“Wilbur, Lowe himself isn’t in the navy, so if he’s here to deliver a message, it means the Lord is telling me that this isn’t something the navy should handle; only I, only I, the King, can do it…”
David's eyes turned cold. "Use that pirate to get rid of those nobles! So Lowe will say it's a good thing, but also a bad thing. The good thing is that I can use this to get rid of those troublesome nobles, the bad thing is that if it's not done well, then our Dressrosa will be plunged into turmoil, but it's necessary, I have to do it!"
"Since you've put in such good intentions, I will always seize this opportunity!"
David clenched his fist tightly. "Once this is done, Dressrosa will have completely completed the first step the master mentioned!"
"really..."
Wilbur muttered, "This isn't something I should tell Cass."
He nodded emphatically and said to David, "I will keep an eye on Cass. So, what else can I do to help?"
"Weapons, lots of weapons! I won't let the pirates release those nobles, not a single one! Nobles or pirates alike, I will kill them all! As a knight, I will not hesitate to stain my hands with blood for my master's wish, because..."
David's expression hardened. "Peace is just around the corner!"
