Chapter 512 The Kingdom of Goa
The East China Sea is known as the peaceful sea of Qinghai. Of course, this peace is partly due to the East China Sea's own weakness. Compared with the other three major sea areas, the East China Sea's average strength is indeed pitifully weak.
Even the presence of figures like Roger and Garp cannot mask the inherent weakness of this sea region.
Oren arrived in the Kingdom of Goa aboard a small to medium-sized sea vessel, accompanied by Barrett.
In the year 1501 of the Sea Calendar, the Goa Kingdom was not yet known as the "most beautiful country in the East Blue," but the "Uncertain Waste Terminal" was already taking shape, beginning to collect all kinds of garbage that prevented the Goa Kingdom from becoming a beautiful country—including people.
Oleni's ship did not make a show of itself, nor did it fly a proper flag. It looked no different from a merchant ship. This was not because Oleni was being low-key, but because Oleni's ship really was an ordinary merchant ship, carrying a lot of goods brought from the Western Sea.
The merchant ship anchored and docked. Olene and Barrett set foot on the territory of the Kingdom of Goa. The bustling crowds in the harbor showed that it was a fairly well-developed kingdom.
"Hey, you two over there, remember to pay the 70,000 Berry parking fee!"
Oleni looked in the direction of the sound and saw a middle-aged man with a thick beard waving and shouting. He seemed to be one of the people in charge of the harbor.
Barrett didn't even glance at the man. His responsibility was simple: to protect Oleni's safety. As for anything else, the three generations of the Leon family had more say in that matter than he did.
"Okay! I'll go right away."
Oleni raised his hand in response, maintaining the composure expected of someone from three generations of glory.
Soon after, Oreni and Barrett, having completed the docking procedures for the merchant ship, stepped out of the port and officially set foot in the city of Goa Kingdom—High Town (a noble residential area).
"You were too polite just now. Being too polite when interacting with these people will make you look bad. Of course, I won't interfere if you have your own ideas."
Barrett was not like the Red Earl after all. Although he had followed Lex to fight in the north and south and opened up a new era, he still retained the habits of a child soldier who had struggled in the lower ranks. So he spoke up.
O'Leary smiled and looked at Barrett as he answered seriously:
"Uncle Barrett is right. Please give me more similar suggestions in the future. I have benefited a lot from them."
Barrett was somewhat speechless. Although Oleney spoke politely, Barrett, who knew the personality of this third-generation Glory well, clearly understood that Oleney's reply meant, "I heard what you said, but whether I do it or not is my business."
"Your father was able to win the favor of people from different social classes and gain the support of the vast majority of people."
“This is indeed a capability that Leon Rongguang should possess.”
This time, O'Leary didn't try to get away with it; instead, he nodded slightly, agreeing with Barrett's point of view.
Walking on the spotless white streets of High Town, Oleney had a momentary surreal feeling: how come this is so similar to Mary Geoise?
The houses are arranged in an orderly yet distinctive manner, but they all share one common feature—luxury.
Compared to the harbor, the flow of people on the main street of Gaozhen was much less. Apart from the occasional group of two or three wealthy women passing by, there were only patrolling soldiers. As an upscale residential area, there was not even the sound of children playing.
Without a doubt, this is the real 'high society'.
Oleini has an identity document from Mary Geoise, so she is naturally allowed to enter High Town, which is not a place that ordinary people are not qualified to set foot in.
In the Kingdom of Goa, the area inside and outside High Town are two different worlds.
Oren's arrival here was not aimless. He had an identity document from Mary Geoise and a trade permit endorsed by the World Government. This meant that Oren could move freely in the waters under the World Government's control and could normally contact people from all walks of life. In the Goa Kingdom, with the permit in Oren's possession, he could directly meet with the king.
"The Otrulk family must be here."
Oleni stood in front of an exceptionally luxurious villa and rang the doorbell.
Ding dong! ~
Ding-dong-
Almost as soon as the doorbell rang, hurried footsteps echoed from inside the villa, and a well-dressed nobleman personally opened the door to greet the guest.
"Is this a distinguished guest from the Holy Land of Mary Geoise? Please come in, please come in. It is a great rudeness of us not to have greeted you at the port. We hope you will forgive us."
The nobleman's name is Otrulk III, Sabo's biological father. That's right, he's Luffy's second brother, the second-in-command of the Revolutionary Army, and the second-generation Fiery Emperor Sabo.
O'Leary wore a warm smile, her eyes were gentle, and she exuded a stunning aura of nobility.
They are clearly nobles, and the kind with excellent manners and upbringing. They are a hundred times better than the Celestial Dragon Pigs of Mary Geoise, since most of them are just a bunch of snotty maggots.
King Otrulk III carefully examined the blond boy in front of him, and was even more amazed. This aura, this appearance, is a hundred times stronger than the king of the Goa Kingdom. No wonder he is a super noble from the Holy Land.
Yes, in Otrulk III's view, although the boy in front of him was not a member of the Celestial Dragons, the Oren, who had a Holy Land identity, was undoubtedly a super noble who had lived in the Holy Land for many years, and his father was probably a steward or something similar for a Celestial Dragon.
"Hehe, it's alright. I was supposed to arrive a day later, but the journey went smoothly, so I came to visit earlier. It was my fault for being impolite."
While exchanging pleasantries, Oleni and Barrett followed Otruuk III into the villa.
Otrulk III's wife, Didit (Sabo's mother), was also a typical noblewoman. After performing the aristocratic etiquette, she arranged for servants to prepare a grand meal to entertain the distinguished guests, while personally serving them tea to welcome them.
"Thank you."
"Hehe, what a polite child!"
Logically speaking, a nobleman like Didit, who has a high opinion of himself and is born into a life of luxury, would not be able to serve tea and water. But the person in front of him is a mysterious guest from Mary Geoise. If he can establish a slight connection with him, he will be able to walk sideways in the Kingdom of Goa in the future.
Oleni accepted the tea from Didi with a gentle smile, which captivated Didi.
Simply put, O'Leary is just too cute and too elegant.
Even the legendary Celestial Dragons couldn't compare to this young man.
Otruuk III and Didit were extremely excited. Their years of aristocratic composure made them somewhat flustered and nervous. All of this stemmed from the blond boy before them—a mysterious guest from Mary Geoise.
After exchanging pleasantries, Otrulk III took the opportunity to ask;
"I've heard that you come from Mary Geoise. May I ask if your father works for the World Government, or... works for a Celestial Dragon family?"
Oleney's expression remained unchanged upon hearing this, while Barrett's expression was subtle.
Oleni's father did indeed serve in the World Government, as its Executive Prime Minister.
Olenee's father did indeed work for the Celestial Dragons, and almost wiped them out.
Oleni's Observation Haki naturally read the thoughts of the noble couple before her, providing the answer they wanted to hear:
"Yes, Father does work in the Holy Land. He is one of the stewards of the Izanbaron family and is responsible for the daily security of the Celestial Dragon family."
!! ~
Otruk III and Didit exchanged a glance, both seeing the turbulent emotions surging in each other's eyes.
They are actually super nobles of this level, able to directly contact Celestial Dragons, even more powerful than ordinary royalty.
“That’s truly remarkable. Your father must have been an outstanding nobleman as well.”
"Wow!~"
Just as Oleney was about to talk about the cargo on the merchant ship, the sound of a baby crying came from the nursery.
Didit looked displeased: "Sabo must be crying again. How rude of me."
