Chapter 32 Sickness [VIP]
“Crack!”
"So handsome, Captain Yale!"
“Crack!”
"This photo could easily be on the Star Network homepage for a hundred galaxies until your next photo replaces it!"
“Crack!”
"Singularity, how can there be someone as perfect as you!"
Two hours of non-stop flattery with almost no repetition.
When Morgans' ears were almost numb from listening, Yale finally finished taking the last photo.
He sat back on the metal chair, and all the photos he had just taken were projected in the air in front of him.
At this point, all these photos have been technically processed, and the messy and unsightly backgrounds have all disappeared, replaced by patches of black background.
Yale supported his chin and hesitated for a while to choose from the half-body and full-body photos of himself, and then he casually clicked on the one he liked.
"This is it. I'll make the rest into small cards and posters and give them to citizens, or give them to the Panda brand factory so they can print my picture on their clothes."
"Understood, Captain Yale."
The ship's elf replied loyally.
Yale nodded with satisfaction and then turned his gaze to Morgans.
"Have you found it?" His neither light nor heavy voice startled Morgans.
His brain, filled with the thought 'Captain Yale is so handsome', turned slowly a few times.
Morgans then remembered the real reason why they returned to the newspaper headquarters and quickly handed over the permanent pointer with both hands.
"Found it, Lord Yale! This is the permanent pointer to Future Island."
He couldn't help but complain in his heart, it was too terrible, too brainwashing, he almost blurted out "Captain Yale is so handsome".
"I'm just handsome. Is that confusing to you?"
Yale casually pointed out what he was thinking, but his eyes did not fall on him, but on the fixed glass ball.
Inside the small ball, a pointer pointed steadily in one direction.
No matter how he turned the ball, the pointer did not budge at all.
"Crack", a crisp cracking sound was heard.
The wooden frame of the permanent pointer and the glass ball inside were crushed by Yale with one hand.
Morgans looked calm and was not at all frightened by Yale's action.
This scene had happened once before when he gave the permanent pointer of the Water City to Yale.
The thin magnetic force stored inside is quickly captured, absorbed, read, and stored.
"The Future Island magnetism has been recorded."
The ship-borne elf's round body turned into a forward-pointing arrow, and then into the shape of a permanent pointer.
"Let's go to Future Island."
Yale stood up lazily, raised his arms and stretched.
The metal chair behind him was quickly disassembled and reassembled, and hung back on his clothes, becoming a decoration that matched his clothes perfectly.

"Hegemony——!!!"
Accompanied by the deafening roars of the two giants, the extremely domineering sword energy pierced through the belly of the giant goldfish and sent the Straw Hat Pirates' Merry forward.
Amid the hearty laughter of the giants, Luffy and Usopp, the two lively guys on the Merry, also linked arms and shouted that they wanted to go to the giant's kingdom 'Elbaf' to take a closer look.
Sitting on the deck with her back against the mast, Nami sighed helplessly, feeling weak for some reason.
“I really envy them…”
No matter how dangerous or desperate the situation is, we always greet you with a smile.
Without their company, Nami felt that she would not be so calm and brave now.
She would lose all her dignity and continue to submit to that man, just like she submitted to the evil dragon and his gang, in exchange for peace in Kokosia Village.
The greater possibility is that even if she is willing to submit to that man, that man will not need it.
She would disappear on the sea along with her family and her hometown, becoming an insignificant mention in the newspaper.
"Vivi, please help me look at the pointer." Nami felt increasingly weak.
She handed the pointer to Alabasta to Vivi, who was wearing a high blue ponytail, and smiled comfortingly, "Finally... we can go back to Alabasta."
But Weiwei didn't smile. She looked at the permanent pointer in her hand for a while, and the gratitude and emotion in her heart could not be simply described in words.
"Thank you." Finally, she said solemnly, "You were all eager to go to the Sabaody Archipelago to learn Haki, but in the end, because of me..."
"Don't say that. This is a decision made by all of us." Nami forced herself to cheer up, her smile slightly bitter.
"Losing your hometown is not a pleasant experience, and we cannot just stand by and watch our friends' hometowns suffer misfortunes."
Sanji, who came over to give the two ladies shortbread, also smiled in relief.
"Ms. Nami is right. If we don't care about our friends who are also about to lose their hometown, how can we talk about taking back our hometown!"
"Nami...Sanji..." Vivi looked at them with emotion.
Nami raised her hand and made a gesture of counting money, and her smile became cunning.
"What's more, you promised to give us..."
With a plop, Nami fell to the deck, her body burning hot.
Suddenly, there was a commotion on the deck, and even Luffy and Usopp, who were eating in the kitchen, rushed over to check on Nami.
It's a pity that the Straw Hat Pirates currently do not have a ship doctor, and the person who takes on this position is Nami, who is currently lying on the bed dying.
More importantly, except for Weiwei, the rest of the people did not realize the seriousness of the problem.
They had never had such a disease before, and it was only after Weiwei reminded them that they realized that a serious fever could even take Nami's life!
"Wow, is it really that serious?"
Captain Yale, who was taking time to catch up on the anime while on his journey, was also surprised.
The terminal tracking the Straw Hat Pirates can continuously record video data for over a thousand years.
The tracking records for this period of time do not even reach one thousandth of its memory. Yale can check the parts he missed at will, and can also slow down or enlarge the details at will.
After making up for the part he missed - the Straw Hat Pirates met two giants in the small garden and defeated the ambushed members of Baroque Works - Yale caught up with the latest plot, which was Nami's illness.
He was very curious whether the team would lose a navigator.
And at this moment, Nami, who was running a high fever, signaled Vivi to get a newspaper she had placed in the drawer.
It was a newspaper from the World Economic Daily, reporting that 300,000 soldiers of the Alabasta King's Army had defected to the rebel camp.
Morgans, who was also following the anime, did not expect to appear on the screen in such a situation.
He was stunned for a moment, then he straightened his back and felt a little proud.
Isn't this the purpose of him founding a newspaper? To control public opinion and use newspapers to manipulate people's emotions.
Unlike the newly emerged "Happy Daily" in the outside world, which is completely loyal to the World Government, it is the only newspaper that dares to confront the government navy.
The Alabasta incident recorded in this newspaper was written entirely to criticize the government navy and belittle the member states.
Alabasta is a member of the government, but when a rebellion broke out in the country, the government stood by and did nothing.
Then what’s the point of joining the member states? What’s the point of giving the government so much money from heaven?
In Morgans' opinion, these people might as well give the Sky Gold to Captain Yale.
At least Captain Yale will hand over the money to the municipal governments and turn them into visible urban investments instead of having them all eaten into the stomachs of a group of fat-headed Celestial Dragons.
Morgans, who was thinking this way, was completely unaware that his thoughts had changed from being obsessed with "escape" at the beginning to habitually praising Yale and belittling the government's Celestial Dragons.
Catching his active brain waves, Yale chuckled without any emotion, which was not surprising.
After staying in the same environment for a long time, people's thinking will always change subtly, and this change is usually slow and unconscious.
But some methods can speed up this process, such as environmental modification and cognitive training.
The island group is in a similar situation now, with all kinds of statements promoting Captain Yale appearing in front of everyone like a bombardment.
When people's brains adapt to the current environment, "Dear Captain Yale" will no longer be just words they say, but a voice that comes from the bottom of their hearts.
What surprised Yale a little was actually the Straw Hat Pirates on the screen, or more specifically, Vivi.
This girl, who carries the fate of her country, still chooses to cure Nami's illness first after learning that one million people in her country might kill each other.
——"Only when Nami is healed can this ship reach its maximum speed."
It’s a pity that brain waves cannot be read remotely, otherwise Yale would know what Vivi’s brain waves were like when she said this.
Perhaps he could collect a new piece of emotional data from this.
But it doesn't matter, he has more interesting things to do now.
Go straight ahead in the direction indicated by the permanent pointer.
The small airship, driven by several hovering engines, flew towards the Future Island across the sea of clouds and passed over a red continent with no visible border below.
Red Earth Continent, the most amazing natural landscape on this planet.
It towers into the clouds, dividing the entire planet into two. Those who can live on it are the Celestial Dragons, known as the "world's nobles".
The Celestial Dragons are descendants of 19 of the 20 kings who formed the World Government 800 years ago. They regard themselves as "descendants of the Creator", enjoy all privileges, and are the true objects of loyalty of the World Government.
What’s funny is that despite having such a prominent identity, what Yale saw in Morgans’ memory was a group of… misfits that are hard to describe.
But it is easy to understand if you think about the fact that they seem to like marrying close relatives.
If generations of close relatives can still produce good breeds, then Yale will definitely capture them and send them to a research institute for careful study to see what genes they have that prevent genetic defects.
The author has something to say:
Human Rights Defence Institute, a political community in name only.
They carried out external propaganda and plunder under the banner of "upholding human rights and treating lower-civilization forces equally", which not only attracted countless still weak planetary civilizations to join them, but also stood on the moral high ground and carried out many unjust wars of aggression.
They have their own internal star network, and any information can only be truly presented to the eyes of the citizens of the community after being filtered and reviewed.
Therefore, their citizens can only see the information that the Human Rights Defence Agency wants them to see. They trust their rulers quite blindly and firmly uphold the ideas and actions of the Human Rights Defence Agency.
It is worth mentioning that the Human Rights Defense Agency, which always likes to maintain its image of justice and fairness, will only turn a blind eye to the Eternal Night Pirates in words.
They really want to win the favor of Captain Yale, and this can indeed bring them real and huge benefits.
