Chapter 663 Shocked the World! Is the Queen Crazy? (6500 words)
[Marijoa, Pangu City——]
Navy Admiral Sora comes to see the Five Elders.
He threw the latest intelligence onto the coffee table in front of the Five Elders, his face as gloomy as a chimpanzee, "The dirty work was done by our navy, and the people were taken away by you, and now it's backfired on us!"
The five elders wearing judge hats picked up the intelligence document, flipped through a few pages at random, and handed it to the other four.
"South Sea S-9 base, Major General Ite was petrified..."
"Several naval branch bases in the South China Sea were razed to the ground, and the infrastructure was destroyed. More than 60% of the soldiers at the base were petrified, 10% were petrified and then crushed to death, 20% were slaughtered, and only about 10% of the marines survived..."
"The remaining branches in the South Sea are under emergency martial law and request assistance from Marinford..."
The bald-headed old man in kimono and glasses flipped through the photos in the file. Every page showed the tragic conditions of the various South China Sea bases, bloody corpses, broken stone statues, buildings covered in blood, and petrified human figures...
"Hand over Lynch!"
"Hand over Lynch!"
"Hand over Lynch!"
Kong Ganggu was a burly man, standing in front of the Five Elders, with a strong sense of oppression, and said in a cold voice: "A Pirate Queen who can petrify her opponents with just eye contact, plus a demon son who can summon a clone of any opponent... They are now completely reckless and attacking our branch bases everywhere. How much damage this can cause, I think the five of you can imagine it, right? "Dear five, she is now asking us for Lynch, but where can I get Lynch for her? ! "
"It will give the Pirate Queen and the Devil's Son a chance to go crazy in the South China Sea..." The bald and bearded Five Elders put down the intelligence file, raised his eyes and said indifferently, "Isn't it because the four top combatants of your navy, the 'Admirals' level, failed to keep them?"
Didn't you say that catching Lynch is the priority?! Kong Kong's face turned pale, and he laughed in anger: "That's right! How about this, please ask the Five Elders to pass me another note and tell me which island we need to ambush in advance this time, so that we can catch those two crazy women who may be slaughtering our navy soldiers in the South China Sea at this moment? Let the whole world know - even if our navy suddenly attacks the Seven Warlords of the Sea, even if we capture your most important people, you are not allowed to resist. As an ally, if you dare to attack the navy, you will only die?"
The Admiral of the Navy became more and more annoyed and angry the more he spoke.
It was originally a good thing. The whereabouts of the Devil's Child were finally known, and it was confirmed that the other party would probably not mess around like those doctors in her hometown; a first-class emerging powerful pirate, a young man who was capable of becoming the overlord of the sea, also seemed to have become an ally of the Seven Warlords of the Sea in order to make friends with their navy, and by the way, he could tie up the Nine Snakes Pirates... Now, because the Five Elders were determined to deal with Lynch, the situation has become a mess!
The system of the Seven Warlords of the Sea is probably hopeless. What blind idiot would trust a navy that attacks its allies so casually?
"Cyborg, watch your attitude."
The faces of the Five Elders turned cold, and they were very dissatisfied with the other party's tone.
The five elders with long hair said calmly: "Your words are very strange, Mr. Marshal. Am I out of date? Or... do you really think that by forming a nominal alliance, those pirates will really trust your navy and our world government?"
"..." Gang Gu Kong's face didn't look good.
The other party continued to ask: "Then let me ask, when 'Kujo Jolyne' was appointed as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea last time, which of the Seven Warlords of the Sea who are 'closely connected' with us honored to come to Marinford to attend the appointment ceremony?"
"Isn't the Pirate Empress here?" said the Five Elders with short golden hair and beard expressionlessly.
"Oh, yes, Boa Hancock." The five elders with long hair suddenly realized, "But I think... she shouldn't be here just because she has a good relationship with our World Government, right?"
Nonsense, now everyone can see that she came here specifically for those two people!
If someone else were to appoint the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the arrogant Pirate Queen would not bother to pay attention to you, and you even came to Marinford specially. You really think too much...
After being scolded by the Five Elder Stars, Gang Gu Kong's face looked even uglier.
The exposure of their attack on the Seven Warlords of the Sea will indeed damage the relationship between the Seven Warlords of the Sea and the Navy; but as the Five Elders said, the Seven Warlords of the Sea and the Navy, no matter how, are originally a relationship between pirates and officers. The Navy never really trusts and relies on the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Pirates of the Seven Warlords of the Sea will never trust the Navy and the World Government like a Marine - everyone is just a relationship of mutual use! The Navy uses the combat power and influence of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and the Seven Warlords of the Sea also use the influence and legitimacy of the World Government, that's all.
"Don't think we are so irresponsible," the disheveled Five Elders patted his suit sleeves and glanced at the documents and photos on the coffee table sarcastically, "This kind of thing, what does it count for? Cyborg, you have to know that the same fact can be said in different ways... You just need to say what should be said and not say what shouldn't be said."
He looked at the slightly changed Cyborg Sora and pulled out a business card from his pocket, "CP0's contact information... They also need the cooperation of your navy to say hello to that bird who likes to join in the fun."
“……?!”
Cyborg Sora took the "business card". There was no name or identity on it, only a simple Den Den Mushi number.
~~~~~~~~~~~ 〖New World, the airship of the World Economic News Agency——〗
The valleys of the entire island are inhabited by densely packed seabirds, all of which are news birds that have been domesticated and trained by Morgause to be skilled in their work.
Morganus, who possesses the power of the Albatross Form of the Bird-Bird Fruit, is able to communicate with birds and usually maintains the form and appearance of a bird, so taming the Newsbird is a breeze.
"President, this is a fax from a colleague in Nanhai!"
"The Pirate Queen and the Devil's Child suddenly took action and attacked several Marine branch bases?!"
Reporters were busy in the office area inside the airship, dealing with mountains of manuscripts. The desks were filled with various kinds of Den Den Mushi, and the sounds of the "boom boom" of the Den Den Mushi and the busy conversations of the reporters could be heard one after another.
Morgans got the latest news material and flicked the manuscript excitedly, "It's really interesting recently! Lynch, Robin, Hancock... How many headlines have been made just by these few people? You are really my treasure, ha ha ha ~ ~"
He looked carefully at the bloody words on the photo, "Hand over Lynch!" His eyes gradually became perverted. The Navy and the World Government... You are not fair! If you are not fair, don't blame me for joining in the fun and scolding you!
The Navy is bullying your own allies for no reason? Can you accept this? No! The Pirate Queen and the Devil's Child are playing like this now, isn't that what you asked for?
"Boss," a reporter came over with a pile of documents, "Please take a look at these--"
"Hmm? What good stuff is there?" Morgans' eyes sparkled. "Did the Empress and her men charge directly into the Marine Headquarters? Hahahahahaha~~ha?!"
He was laughing excitedly, but suddenly stopped, because he didn't know the reporter in front of him, and the other party suddenly tore off his "face" and revealed another face.
Wearing a weird mask!
A CP agent of the World Government? ! "That's hard to hear, Birdman."
The CP0 agent wearing a dragon horn mask had five iron fingers like five gun muzzles, hovering over Morgans' face. Soon, there was a cry of surprise in the busy newspaper work area behind them. Several reporters suddenly tore off their "faces", revealing dragon claw masks, lion masks, and strange bread masks... They all used finger guns or armed colors to accurately control the reporters who were sorting out the intelligence from the South China Sea.
"......?!" Morgans understood the current situation instantly. His face was gloomy. He glanced at the five "finger guns" covering his forehead. The feathers on his cheeks were wet. "CP0? What do you want to do? Do you want to stop us from publishing this news?"
CP0 in the dragon horn mask made a dull sound, "Is it not possible?"
At this time, a reporter holding a news bird rushed in from outside, "It's bad, President, there are navy...warships outside," he was so frightened when he saw the situation inside the airship, and muttered, "We are...surrounded..."
Outside, news birds were flying, looking in surprise at the naval warships slowly approaching on the sea in the distance.
"You can read the news in newspapers. This is common knowledge that even children know."
Morgans said coldly, "Even if I die, I will insist on press freedom. I will not report fake news!
"Without my nod, the World Economic Society newspaper will not be published! The World Economic Society newspaper is recognized as the world's number one newspaper. If it stops publishing for no reason... this will attract people all over the world to explore the truth behind it. Do you think what I said is wrong?"
"..." CP0 in the dragon horn mask was silent for a moment, then slowly retracted his five-finger gun, "Don't be so nervous, we are not unreasonable people."
Morgans' back was soaked. He loosened his tie and breathed a sigh of relief. He smiled awkwardly and said, "How can I not be nervous? I have never heard that the strongest shield of the Celestial Dragons actually acted together with the Navy..."
"The navy is the sword of the Celestial Dragons," the Horned Mask flipped through the bloody photos on Morgans' desk as if nothing had happened, "is it strange that the shield and sword act together?"
Morgans continued to laugh awkwardly, "That's true."
"I didn't ask you to suppress the news. You misunderstood, Birdman." The man with the dragon horn mask pointed at the bloody words "Hand over Lynch!" on the photos. "It's just that we don't want to see unnecessary things in the newspaper."
He and the other masked men in the airship looked at Morgans, "After all, what you want is ultimately a headline news, but it's just newspaper sales. Do you think I'm wrong?"
Bang! The photos with bloody words on the buildings and stone statues shattered under his fingers...
…
Dense swarms of news birds were like paper snowflakes, carrying the latest newspapers to the seas around the world...
~~~~~~~~~~~~ When residents of many islands, countries, and towns saw the latest newspaper headlines, they spat out their mouths of water in shock.
"Is the Empress crazy?!"
"The son of the devil is crazy too?"
"They actually attacked the naval base...Aren't they the Shichibukai?!"
Ordinary people, royal families from various countries, pirates on the sea, the East Sea, the West Sea, the South Sea, the North Sea... many people were reading the latest newspapers, all with incredible expressions on their faces.
The news described the tragic conditions of the destroyed naval bases in the South China Sea in a shocking and unbelievable tone, and restored the "full picture" of the incident through interviews with surviving marines and local eyewitnesses...
What exactly happened?
Why did the Pirate Empress team up with the Devil's Son to do such a thing?
…
〖New World, Moby Dick——〗
"strangeness……"
Marco flipped through the newspaper and said in surprise, "This doesn't seem like something they would do! If it was Lynch, I wouldn't be surprised at what he did, but Kujo Jolyne - Nico Robin, she looks like a much more rational person than Lynch... How could she agree to do such an irrational thing?"
"There must be a reason..." Whitebeard said calmly while drinking, "Marco, didn't you notice the change in the news reports? Although Nico Robin is the captain of the JOJO Pirates, the protagonist of previous reports about them has always been that kid Lynch... Why did Nico Robin become the main character this time?"
…
[Paradise, a certain sea area——]
“Lynch…”
Red-haired Shanks looked down at the newspaper in his hand, "Huh?"
He flipped through the pages several times but still couldn't find any direct description of Lynch. The only possible part involving Lynch might be in similar descriptions of "Boa Hancock, Nico Robin and others"...
Will Lynch be in this "wait"?
Deputy Captain Ben Beckman exhaled a puff of cigarette and said, "It seems that something happened to that boy Lynch."
"Yeah!" Shanks nodded, "He is the only one who can make Nico Robin do such a thing without considering the consequences..."
"But, Boa Hancock?!"
Jesus Bu and the fat man Laki Lu were reading another newspaper together. Both of them had red eyes and hot air coming out of their nostrils. "This is the Pirate Queen, the most beautiful woman in the world! Could she be with that boy Lynch——?!!!"
"Damn it!! I'm so jealous of him!!!"
…
〖Paradise, Yixue Kingdom——〗
"Hahaha, I knew that this young snake princess must be having an affair with that boy."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
There is a small wooden house in the snow-covered valley. Dr. Kuleha, who is over 100 years old, is drinking and reading the latest newspaper.
The news focused on describing the tragic situation at the naval base and exaggerating the atrocities committed by the Pirate Queen and her gang...
But Kuleha, who had rich life experience and sharp eyes, could tell at once that many of the photos in the news were enlarged, cropped, and processed! "The bloodstains on the petrified statues must be words." Kuleha raised her head and took a sip of wine, "I guess they are messages from Boa Hancock and Nico Robin to the Navy... But these photos either took the angle of the back of the statues, or cropped the bloodstains and words out of the picture... Hehehe, it's really ugly."
"Nicole Robin..."
The innocent boy with short brown hair and a hint of blue on the tip of his nose murmured, "Master, you said that was Jolyne's real name, right?... Did something happen to them?"
The reindeer who ate the Human-Human Fruit grabbed the newspaper, pouted and had tears in his eyes, "Could it be... dangerous..."
"Stupid apprentice!" Kuleha knocked a bottle of wine on the table. "To let her be with the Pirate Queen... hehe, to use the words in the newspaper, "she has gone crazy" and "lost her mind", what else could it be?"
She sneered, "I guess those covered-up bloody messages are about Lin Qi..."
"Lynch... Giorno..." Chopper became even sadder.
Kuleha shook her head and said, "Something must have happened to Lynch. And it's not a small thing! Otherwise... they wouldn't be so 'crazy'."
Chopper was extremely sad and cried for a while, then complained to his master why he had to speak so bluntly, it was so scary, and it might not be true...
"Stupid apprentice!" Kuleha took a sip of wine and said calmly, "If you don't even have the courage to face blood and tragedy, what kind of doctor are you? "Aren't you their partner? Then pray for them and believe in them! Believe that since they said they would come to pick you up later, they will definitely keep their promise."
Chopper wiped his tears and sobbed, "Hmm."
"Then I'll go out. There are still a few patients in the town..." Chopper carried a medical bag on his back, and quickly transformed from a human-like boy with short brown hair into a blue-nosed reindeer on all fours. He used his horns to push open the door of the wooden house, looked up at the vast snow outside, and walked in with a depressed mood. Kuleha was wearing glasses in the wooden house, drinking and reading the newspaper, shaking her head and muttering, "What a stupid apprentice, you don't even know to close the door when you go out... Do you want your mother to freeze to death?"
After treating the patients in the town, Chopper came to the coast alone, turned into a petite half-human, half-beast, and stared blankly at the white sea in the distance.
You will definitely abide by the agreement, right?
Lynch, Robin...
Woo, woo, woo, woo…
Chopper was holding back tears and sniffling his nose when he suddenly heard a man's loud laughter. When he came to his senses, he found that a man with a strange hairstyle had come over and asked with a smile: "Your blue nose is so strange, haha, I like it very much!"
…
〖South China Sea--〗
Hancock stood on the roof, his face livid.
Sanda looked at the newspaper and said depressedly: "How can they do this? They actually...didn't report the text we left behind at all!"
Mary was furious. "It seems like we are being unreasonable! How can the World Economic News be like this? It has become bad!"
It's just like fake news! "Is that it?" Sanda couldn't accept it. "We made such a big fuss in the South China Sea, but no news spread out? It's impossible, right? At least the people in the South China Sea, especially those on the islands where the naval bases we destroyed are located, must know what's going on. Why are we doing this? - They can see the words written in blood!"
Mary was also unconvinced and said, "That's right! There will always be other people who will spread what we really want to convey!"
"It's no use..."
Robin returned from the town, with a ghostly black phantom floating beside her. Her eyes were buried in the thick shadows, and she said indifferently, "Over the years, people have become accustomed to the authority of the World Economic News newspaper... Even if there are news from other tabloids, it will not shake the views of most people on this matter..."
"Most ordinary people can't be shaken, so what about those extraordinary people?" Sanda still couldn't understand why a good thing would be turned upside down just because of the half-hidden news in the newspaper? "It's impossible that everyone is so stupid that they really think that we, as the Seven Warlords of the Sea, will launch a large-scale attack on the naval base for no reason?!"
"So what if those people guessed it?" Robin said dimly, "The World Economic Society may have been threatened by the power of the World Government, and the right to speak has been controlled by the World Government... As for the rest of the world, even if they guessed it or saw the truth behind this matter from tabloids and magazines, so what? How many people would be willing to participate in the vortex between the World Economic Society, the World Government, and the Seven Warlords of the Sea despite the huge resistance?"
"What about the other Shichibukai..." Sanda and Mary were stunned. "If they knew..."
Robin shook her head and said, "They may become more wary of the World Government and the Navy and visit the Marine Headquarters less often, but it would be difficult for them to give up the legitimacy provided by the Seven Warlords of the Sea..."
"To the Grand Line!"
Hancock gave the order expressionlessly, "Who cares what the newspapers say? Choosing to cover up the truth proves that they did see our request. - Since they don't agree, then keep killing them!"
Soon, the Flying Snake carried Hancock, Robin and Mary directly into the doldrums and headed for the paradise in the first half of the Grand Line on the other side.
~~~~~~~~~~~ 〖Paradise, Navy G-2 Base——〗
Just after receiving the order to increase alert from the headquarters, the base commander heard the exclamations of his subordinates outside... most of which were the recognizable sound of thieves' saliva.
"What a nice view……"
"The real person is so beautiful!"
"Such a beautiful woman, even if she attacked the naval base, she can be forgiven..."
The base commander shuddered and almost collapsed to the ground in fear.
No way, so unlucky?! ...
Bang! At the Marine Headquarters, Akainu, who was taking a break, punched the desk and burned it to ashes. He said expressionlessly, "They are just a bunch of pirates. They are really courting their own destruction!"
…
More and more newspapers are flying around the world with the news birds...
…
〖Great Desert——〗
Crocodile bit his cigar, scratched the newspaper with his big golden hook hand, glanced at it, and exhaled a puff of smoke, "Boring..."
He had no interest in the truth behind this suspicious matter.
As long as the identity of Shichibukai allows him to hide legally behind that country, it will be enough.
As for the navy?
I didn’t really trust those hypocritical “legal pirates”… Hehe, come to think of it, aren’t we all alike? …
〖Giant three-masted sailing ship, Ghost Island——〗
The huge body of the Seven Warlords of the Sea Gekko Moriah was sunk into the gloomy Gothic-style bed and he was sleeping soundly. He had been sleeping for almost a week and was too lazy to wake up.
"Really? You just know how to sleep!"
The 13-year-old Gothic girl Perona slammed her doll to the ground and tore the newspaper into pieces. She stuck out her tongue and made faces at the sleeping Moria, "I'll leave you with nothing to see, lulululu~"
…
〖East China Sea--〗
"Rubber rubber...pistol!"
The young man's energetic voice was heard in the valley, but soon he let out an "ouch".
Ace scoffed, "What kind of fist is that? Is it really a pistol?"
Luffy scratched his head in frustration, looked back and found that his mother was not watching their competition, but was reading a newspaper with her head down.
"Aunt Tulip has been very serious since she got the newspaper today." Ace said with his hands on his hips, "Luffy, you didn't make your mother angry, did you?"
"Didn't you say it was because of the newspaper?!" Luffy said angrily, "What does it have to do with me?"
"Haha, it's just a joke." Ace laughed and threw Luffy to the ground with an overhead throw. "Talk to your brother politely, idiot!"
Luffy is a rubber man, so of course he didn't feel any pain from the fall, but he lay on the ground with his butt in the air, and said depressedly: "If it was Sabo, he would definitely be much gentler..."
Ai Sidan didn't hear it and looked at Tulip with worry in his eyes.
Hancock...Robin...Tulip had a worried look on her face. She supported her forehead with her hand, raised her head and glanced at Ace and Luffy who were playing, feeling a little regretful.
