Chapter 25 Coby and Bellemere[VIP]
Kobe, a 16-year-old boy.
When Yale occupied the town of Shields, he was working as a handyman at the 153rd Branch, a naval base in the town of Shields in the East China Sea.
Don't be fooled by his young age. His life experience is much richer than those who have never left the island.
Two years ago, he boarded the wrong boat while fishing and became a handyman on the pirate Alrita's ship.
Two years later, a few months ago, he was rescued by Straw Hat Luffy who went out to sea and brought to Shields Town and mustered up the courage to join the navy.
Although he was only doing odd jobs at first, he believed that he could become a real navy through hard work!
However, things are unpredictable, just like he had never thought that something would happen when he went fishing at sea two years ago. Just when he was diligently doing odd jobs, an accident happened again.
A projection of a red-haired man suddenly appeared on the large playground of the base, threatening to take over the world.
The navy was disdainful.
Coby didn't take it seriously at first. After all, in his mind, the navy and the government were invincible.
Even if that man can control Den Den Mushi with powerful means, it doesn't mean he has the ability to defeat the navy.
Thinking of this, Coby put the matter behind him and continued to work hard on his chores.
Then, just when they were about to forget about that man, he suddenly appeared in the town of Shields.
Yes, not landing, but advent.
The other person suddenly appeared, and his flamboyant red hair blocked the dazzling sun.
He stood in the air, looking down at the entire town of Shields, and took over the place powerfully and quickly like a god descending.
Tiny streams of light peeled off and fell off his black and gold clothes, piecing together into strange metal balls in the air.
Kobe has forgotten how he lined up, how he was scanned, and how he received his citizen ID card.
He only remembered that when he came to his senses, he was already sitting in the confiscated noble mansion, receiving systematic education from the metal ball as a student.
At the age of 16, according to the regulations of the Interstellar Minor Protection Act for planets below the first level of civilization, Coby is still a minor.
As a minor citizen, his duty is not to do chores, but to sit in the classroom and receive education.
Only after reaching adulthood at the age of 18 or graduating from a regular school and not planning to continue further studies can one enter society and officially start working.
Kirby was confused, confused in every sense of the word.
Why does he have to sit in the classroom to study?
What the hell is he learning?
"What parts does the Milky Way consist of? Can anyone answer this?"
The metal ball switched its voice pack and floated on the podium with a voice full of patience and emotion.
A clear dynamic image was projected on the white wall next to it, as if this was what the Milky Way looked like, a hazy band of light in the night sky.
No one raised their hand to answer the question. Although the children in the same classroom with Kobe were all around 16 years old, most of them had not received a formal education.
Even if parents are responsible if their children can read, how can they possibly know what the Milky Way is?
Do you know what this is useful for?
They have no idea how this thing can be applied in real life.
The metal ball remained silent and continued to explain patiently, "The Milky Way is composed of the galactic center, galactic nucleus, galactic disk, galactic halo, and galactic corona from the inside out. It is approximately 10 billion years old..."
It was not until noon when he arrived at the cafeteria and smelled the aroma of meat that Coby woke up from his daze.
That was a close call. I almost drowned in the ocean of interstellar science!
If you were to say which place in this school is the most popular among students, it would definitely be the cafeteria.
There is no tuition or meal fee in a comprehensive school, and lunch is free. Kebi even heard that there will be free student dormitories in the future.
It is still in the preparation stage and it is difficult to build it in a short period of time.
The captain gave the newly appointed mayor a list and a large amount of start-up funds, and then rarely appeared again.
Only those diligent metal balls proved that he had been watching this place.
After taking a bite of the delicious fried rice, Coby squinted his eyes happily.
Actually...it's not bad now.
Everyone lives better than before. They can go to another island to play just by crossing the border without having to worry about pirate attacks.
Although he still didn't understand the point of learning so much knowledge, since he couldn't resist, he could only compromise temporarily.
If he wants to realize his dream of becoming a navy officer, it won’t be too late for him to report to the naval base after he graduates at the age of eighteen.
Thinking this way, Coby was completely unaware that there was something wrong with his mentality.
He didn't even think about resisting and quickly accepted everything that happened...
"This is……"
Holding a newspaper, Coby widened his eyes in shock, staring at the contents of the newspaper.
New island added to the island group: Rogue City, located in the southwest.
Island Introduction: This is a tourist island full of legends. The legendary Pirate King Roger was born and died here. The execution platform where he was executed stands in the square of Rogue City. Everyone is welcome to visit.
Island Specialties: There are various shops here, such as a weapon shop that sells various weapons, a fish shop that has a chance to purchase fish from other seas, and a hidden tavern that houses a giant skull...
The above information is distributed to all citizens by the World Economic News every time a new island is occupied.
Citizens can visit, do business, or even settle down on other islands according to their needs.
But that doesn't matter.
What Coby really cared about was the short story in the World Economic Newspaper that followed the introduction of Rogue City, boasting about how Captain Yale conquered Rogue City with great wisdom and bravery.
In the story, Straw Hat Luffy, who once saved him, became one of the villains when Yale occupied the island.
Yale defeated him with a wave of his sleeve and took away his devil fruit.
The hand holding the newspaper was shaking slightly.
Coby bit his lip, and at that moment he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
"That's too much... They actually... They actually took Luffy-san's devil fruit..."
"Yeah, yeah, you finally woke up."
Next to Coby, Bellemere, the former son of an official and the number one bully in Shields Town, who was now forced by Metal Ball to do compulsory labor to atone for his past sins, leaned on the broom handle and said with great relief.
He was the one who brought this newspaper to Kirby.
Compared to Coby, who is only 16 years old, he, a 20-year-old adult, is not qualified to enjoy school life. He can only sweep the streets and pay for his sins honestly.
Could Bellumebo accept this? Of course not, but he didn't dare to resist. After all, the people of Shields City (including Coby) all looked very satisfied with their current lives.
When he saw this newspaper today, Bellemeber immediately thought of Coby.
What the other party cares about most is Mr. Luffy who saved him, and he will definitely come to his senses when he sees Luffy in trouble.
Fortunately, Bellemeber guessed correctly.
Coby really woke up and immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.
"We have to escape!" Coby's voice trembled.
"That man is too dangerous. We have to tell the navy about this!"
Bellemer was so moved that he almost cried.
"You just found out!"
But how to escape?
Just as the two were thinking hard, several metal balls with red light suddenly flew away.
They knew that this meant danger.
The two looked at each other and followed curiously, but they didn't expect that the riot happened at the naval base in Shields City.
A few months ago, when Luffy came to Shields Town, he defeated Captain Monka, the Navy Captain who ruled Shields Town with hegemony.
Monka was temporarily imprisoned for his evil deeds.
If the accident with Yale had not happened, Monka would have been taken away by the navy who came from headquarters some time ago and faced justice.
However, after the accident with Yale, the navy from headquarters did not arrive and Monka was still imprisoned.
The other party is very strong and doesn't want to be locked up in prison for the rest of his life.
Taking advantage of the lax guards, Monka escaped from the naval base and held a navy officer with an ID card hostage, so that the metal ball dared not attack casually.
After that, he fled all the way and successfully got rid of the metal ball but failed to get rid of Coby and Bellemeber.
Just when Monka was about to get rid of the useless navy prisoners, Coby stood up and bravely attracted Monka's attention.
He was beaten black and blue by Monka.
At this time, Monka also discovered his son Bellumeber.
It was at this moment that a cry of "Help!" reached Smoker's ears.
The motorcycle stopped and Smoker drew his ten weapons from behind.
Although he didn't know what was happening, he could clearly see the prison uniform on Monka.
Even without the power of the Smoke Fruit, Smoker, who was transferred from the headquarters to the East China Sea, still easily defeated Monka.
After knocking the man unconscious, he learned what happened from Coby and Bellemeber, and also got the newspaper with the picture of Rogue Town.
Morgans changed his previous style and wrote this newspaper in a very concise and clear manner.
Apart from describing the invader Yale as "justice sent from heaven", the newspaper contained almost no exaggeration.
Smoker exhaled a puff of smoke and looked at Coby and Bellemeber who were looking at him curiously.
"You're not being controlled? Say 'Yale is a fool' to me."
"What?" Coby and Bellemeber looked at him in horror.
Smoker raised his ten hands and said fiercely, "If you don't tell me, it proves that you are under his control."
Compared with distant dangers, the immediate dangers are more terrifying.
Coby and Bellemeber proved their innocence with trembling voices.
Smoker then let them go, "Come with me."
"Go with you?" Kirby asked confusedly.
"Where are we going?"
"Since you were all able to break free from his mind control, that proves there must be other sane people on these islands. We need to unite them."
Smoker threw away his cigarette butt and stomped it out. Shrouded in smoke, his weathered face gave people a strong sense of security.
He sneered, "Although our every move now may also be part of that man's script."
