Chapter 406 Everyone has their own concerns

Once the order of the Supreme Marshal of Marinford was issued, the final list of the Seven Warlords of the Sea revealed the sea, which quickly caused an uproar.

If Qinghai has a "hot search word" every period of time, then the hot search word during this period is undoubtedly -

Your Majesty Shichibukai!

It simply suddenly became the number one trending search in Qinghai. The organization that was once marginalized by the world government has now achieved full staffing for the first time.

Especially the Charlotte family, the big powers in the New World like the Beasts Pirates all chose to become the Seven Warlords of the Sea, which added a strong mysterious color to the title of Seven Warlords of the Sea.

……

New World Dressrosa——

As one of the three major islands at the entrance to the New World, Dressrosa has now become an important hub in the New World's trade chain, with countless ships traveling back and forth every day, which has greatly boosted the local economic vitality.

As the economy developed rapidly, the underground world also gave birth to the largest intelligence trading center in the New World - Dressrosa Red Light District! ~

As everyone knows, Buckingham Stussy, the Queen of Pleasure Street, is not only engaged in the flesh trade in the red-light district. Beneath the red-light district, there are countless trading centers for ocean intelligence, and each red-light district is also a hidden intelligence point.

Dressrosa Rose Street——

"Hey, have you heard about what's going on at Paradise recently with the Shichibukai?"

"Well, it seems to be a collaboration between the navy and pirates. How despicable, the navy and pirates collaborating~"

A few idle men gathered together and began to chat about the recent news in Qinghai.

The man in the corner seemed very dissatisfied with the existence of the Seven Warlords of the Sea:

"Tsk!~ It seems that there was this Shichibukai a few years ago, but they didn't seem to be that powerful. Now that the world has changed, the navy has thought of cooperating with pirates, and the opponents are still the original Charlotte and the Beasts."

"Charlotte and Beast?!~ Aren't they in Totland and Barbarossa's place? Why did they end up in Paradise?"

"It happened a long time ago. Big Mom and Kaido died in the battle of Marineford. Without their captain, how could they continue to survive in the New World?"

"Alas, the King of the New World is really cruel..."

"Shut up!~ Don't you want to live?!~"

To slander the king of the New World in the New World is like looking for a toilet with a lantern - it's like looking for death.

The sloppy man in the corner snorted coldly:

"Humph!~ He is nothing but a powerful tyrant. What bullshit is that he wants to save the world? It's all a cover for his selfishness. He wants to use our power to attack the World Government!~"

The slovenly man seemed to have a deep hatred for Leon Lex and spoke mercilessly.

Another man asked, "I see you wandering around Rose Street every day, sometimes you can't even afford to eat, and you keep saying bad things about the King of the New World. Is it because he's fallen on hard times?"

Hearing this, the sloppy man became even angrier and said angrily:

"Tsk, it's all because of that selfish and arrogant guy. He gave those untouchables weapons and power, and robbed all the property my father left me. They are obviously just untouchables! How dare they step on my head and show off their power!"

"Hahaha! It's all karma. Let's just fill our stomachs first."

"Hmph!~"

Hearing the ridicule from the people around him, the sloppy man fled in panic, but the resentment in his eyes became more intense.

This scene was "witnessed" by a blind swordsman who had been observing the place not far away, using his superb observation Haki to "witness" it.

The blind swordsman named Yixiao stood quietly in place. His dark purple striped kimono looked very loose. He sighed to the young man beside him:

"No matter what you do, there will always be people who applaud you and people who say it's bad. Even if the King of the New World opens a new era, there will still be people who slander him. But he is right. When someone rises, someone else will fall. But in my opinion, the choice made by the King of the New World is worthy of this era."

Yixiao admired from the bottom of his heart the fact that Leon Lex had saved the world and started an era of great rise. Just because of this one thing, Lex's status in Yixiao's heart skyrocketed, from the image of a warlord who ruled a certain area to the number one saint who cared about the people for eight hundred years.

The young man next to Yixiao was a little surprised:

"Oh? You approve of Mr. Lex?"

He smiled and nodded.

The young man smiled softly: "I thought that someone with your personality would not approve of this era of bloodshed."

He paused with a smile, "The King of the New World's approach is indeed a bit drastic, but if we want to eradicate the ills of this ocean for eight hundred years, boiling a frog in warm water will definitely not work. Perhaps this is what the heavy punishment in troubled times means."

The young man laughed loudly: "Hahahaha! You are right! What Mr. Lex did is the greatest cause of this era, or even in the past eight hundred years!"

"You have a special respect for the King of the New World."

The young man smiled proudly:

"Of course, because my name is, Douglas Barrett!!"

Yixiao was not surprised by the identity of the blond young man. He was in the New World and came to Dressrosa, where hidden dragons and crouching tigers were everywhere. Even if he was low-key, he could not conceal his powerful aura. Any strong person with strong observation Haki would notice his existence.

Obviously, Barrett is the strongest among the strong.

Yixiao's eyes were blind, but his mind was as clear as a mirror, able to reflect all changes in the outside world. He smiled and asked Barrett:

"Can your Excellency tell me the whereabouts of the King of the New World?"

Barrett said expressionlessly: "Oh? You want to investigate Mr. Lex's whereabouts?"

Yixiao smiled bitterly and said, "It's not an investigation. I just want to pay a visit to the King of the New World and ask him some questions in person."

Barrett understood. In fact, he had noticed Yixiao's existence from the moment he arrived in Dressrosa. He was at least a candidate for admiral and was worthy of Barrett's attention.

Barrett did not directly answer Yixiao's question, but smiled faintly, a smile that was somewhat similar to Lex's:

"You're not qualified."

Not qualified!!

A very straightforward answer.

You are not qualified to see Mr. Lex.

The current Yixiao is far from the powerful existence that will be the direct-hired admiral of the navy 20 years later. In other words, even if the perfect Fujitora Yixiao who can easily summon meteorites in the future wants to meet Leon Lex, he is still not qualified! ~

Yixiao was not angry, nor discouraged, but just smiled silently:

"Is that so? I am indeed being rude."

Barrett really liked Yixiao's temper, which suited his taste, so he said a few more words than usual:

"Although you are not qualified to see Mr. Lex, I have nothing to do recently. You can stay in Dressrosa for a while. You can see me on weekdays."

The deeper meaning of Barrett's words is very simple. It means that if you have anything you want to say to Mr. Lex, you can tell me first and I will consider conveying it as appropriate.

He accepted it with a smile.

Barrett called to his pink-haired companion, Anis, who was also the general manager of Dressrosa Fun Street:

"Anis, please arrange accommodation for this gentleman."

"Hmm~"

Although he didn't know why Barrett, who was rumored to have a bad temper, was so kind today, Yixiao still chose to stay in Dressrosa for a while.

Barrett was thinking more: [Mr. Reid complains every day about Sword of Lion not being able to recruit people, but isn't there a suitable Brigadier General coming to us? ]

Yes, the biggest reason why Barrett smiled enthusiastically was that he wanted to recruit him into Sword of Lion, the extremely mysterious organization founded by Lex and led by the Red Earl, which only recruited young generals or those with the qualifications of generals.

Sword of Lion! ~
