Chapter 503: Pursuing the Mystery

Before the two met, Rocks heard Roger's shouting in the bar.

"Roger?" Xia Qi heard the news and immediately went out from behind the bar. "He's here, so does that mean Rayleigh is here too?!"

"Roger!!!" Guroliosa was the first to rush out of the bar and threw herself directly into Roger's arms. "I knew you came here specially to see me, right?!"

"Get out of the way, Guroliosa! I'm checking to see if Shaqi is hurt!"

The two most famous pirate groups in the New World gathered together again, and the atmosphere of tension gradually increased.

At this moment, a large number of seagulls flew over the airspace above Beehive Island and threw down many newspapers.

Rocks and Roger were facing each other with their foreheads facing each other.

The crew members around received the newspaper and started reading it.

"A dragon roars to the heavens! The ultimate ice swordsman, Arthur, defeats the Eight Treasures Navy Green Pepper with a single blow?! The southern port of the Flower Kingdom is destroyed!"

"Ah?!" When Rocks heard the report about Arthur, he immediately went to his younger brother to take the newspaper and take a look.

In just a few days, everyone was shocked by the news that Arthur was in the headlines again.

Rayleigh looked at the newspaper seriously. "He ran to the West Sea...?"

"It's him again!" Roger was furious, "If I had known he was so fond of causing trouble, I should have taught him a lesson! By the way, Xia Qi, you're not hurt, are you?"

Roger, despite being surrounded by Guloliosa, ran straight to Xia Qi and greeted her with his eyes full of love.

"No." Xia Qi walked around Roger and came to Rayleigh. "Long time no see, Lei."

"It won't be long..." Rayleigh responded to Xia Qi with cold sweat on his forehead.

"What! Old Ray!" When all the members of Roger's pirate group heard this, they were filled with jealousy and yelled at Rayleigh angrily.

This special address made them feel that their goddess had some unknown secret with the deputy captain, and they were extremely dissatisfied.

No one expected that two legendary pirates would quarrel here so peacefully.

In the corner, Wang Zhi, who was drinking with other cadres, stared at Xia Qi and thought to himself.

Not long ago, when he was on a mission at sea, the government sent people to find him and offered him a huge price to kidnap Xia Qi and hand her over to the Tianlong people.

He smiled a playful and strange smile and thought to himself, "What a scary woman! So many important people are circling around you. What will happen if I bring you to the Celestial Dragons?"

After visiting Shaqi, the Roger Pirates had a quarrel with Rocks and left the Hive.

Their adventure theme is to find the unknown and the impossible in the world.

It was as if there was a force guiding him, making him feel as if his existence in this world was connected to some kind of destiny, as if there were unfinished business to be done.

A few months later——

June 1483, 7 in the Haiyuan calendar.

In the new world, a village was looted and horribly damaged on the coast.

A G6 suppression warship arrived here.

Gion, as usual, carried out his mission, fully armed, holding guns and went to the island to carry out rescue like other marines.

"Run! It's the navy!"

When the surviving villagers saw the navy, instead of being ecstatic, they fled in fear.

Gion, who encountered this situation for the first time, was at a loss.

In her heart, the navy is the embodiment of justice, and once the suffering people see the navy, it will be like seeing hope.

But seeing the villagers distancing themselves from them for the first time made her curious about what was going on.

After a search, they found that the criminals who caused all these tragedies had left the village.

The village was completely looted and food was extremely scarce.

"We are here to rescue you, don't be afraid!" Gion, carrying a gun, separated from other Marines and walked through the streets and alleys of the village with his guard down.

The villagers were frightened as if they had seen a ghost and stayed away from all the navy.

Gion remained steadfast. He took the relief supplies to a door and knocked. "Hello, we are from the G6 Navy. We received a rescue intelligence and came here specially. We have no ill intentions."

"We don't need it!" A man's voice came from the room, filled with anger and fear.

"Can you tell me what happened?" Gion continued to ask, "Who attacked the village?"

"..." The man was silent for a moment, then finally spoke out, "It was the Celestial Dragons! They passed by our village... They took away all our food and women under the pretext of forced expropriation... Many of our men who resisted were mercilessly shot dead!"

Gion was shocked when he heard the news.

"Hey!" A comrade called to her from the street behind Gion, "Gion, they seem very afraid of us. Let's put the supplies at the door and leave."

"World Government?" Gion's pupils trembled, and he thought about putting down the supplies in his hands, then carrying his gun and leaving with the other navy.

These words were like a huge puzzle, deeply engraved in Gion's mind.

As the navy's immediate superior and the ruler of the world government, how could he indiscriminately kill and plunder civilians?

On the 18th, Gion returned to G6 on a warship with great doubts.

After the mission was completed, she was given leave.

After completing a series of leave applications, it was already afternoon.

In the G6 base town, Gion was lying on the bed alone, thinking over and over again, but he couldn't figure it out.

"Sister, as a high-ranking naval officer, should know something, right?" She decided to get up and go to He's office to ask.

At dusk, Gion came to the naval base wearing casual clothes.

Outside He's office, she knocked on the door.

"Come in." Crane's voice sounded from inside.

Gion opened the door and walked in, standing behind Tsuru's desk and watching her busy.

The soldier didn't report the news for a long time, so He looked up and realized that it was his sister.

"Gion?" He smiled slightly. "Aren't you on leave after your mission? Why are you still in the army?"

"Sister, I have something to ask you."

"Ask me. There's no need to be so formal. Just tell me what you want to say." He personally poured her a cup of tea. "I heard you did a great job on this mission. I was planning to give you a bonus from my own salary as a reward."

"Sister!" Gion's voice suddenly grew louder, holding the teacup handed to him by He with both hands. "The villagers of the village where we were on our last mission told me that the people who attacked them were not pirates!"

"Isn't it clearly written in the mission report? It was a natural disaster that caused the deaths of many men and women." Crane responded to her as usual, "In this kind of situation, all we can do is provide supplies to help them rebuild."

Natural disaster? Gion's eyes widened when he heard these words.

How could the officers on that warship write a report like that?

The villagers themselves told her that it was the Celestial Dragons who attacked the village, killed the men, and abducted the women.

Gion blinked wildly and fell silent.

Some people don't understand why this happened.

"You should learn about the Celestial Dragons and why a non-member nation mysteriously disappears from this world every three years." A familiar voice echoed in her mind.

These were the words Arthur had said to her before.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?" He noticed that something was wrong with Gion and approached her with concern. "Are you feeling unwell? Do you want to see a psychiatrist?"

"No...no need." Gion turned and left, breathing a little quickly.

Seeing that she was alright, He said to her in advance, "By the way, the military will be conducting a new round of psychological evaluation reports soon. You should take a good rest and adjust yourself."

Gion left Tsuru's office in a daze, "My sister seems unaware that the mission record has been rewritten!"
