Chapter 765 Civil strife

"Ouch, it hurts so much."

Vodka IV was thrashing around on the bed while holding his abdomen. The doctors around him were very worried. In fact, Vodka IV was not seriously injured. Although Lucci's kick looked very heavy, he didn't use much force. It was more like a kick than a kick. Although the impact on the throne was quite heavy, Vodka IV's fat body successfully mitigated the damage. In other words, except for the bruises and some contusions on his body, Vodka IV was actually fine. It was just that this guy had been spoiled since he was a child and had never suffered any injuries. He would wail for a whole morning if he had a cramp. Now that he was kicked by Lucci, he would probably wail for a whole day.

Just when the doctors were helpless with Vodka IV, two nobles came in with several soldiers and drove away the doctors and waiters who were surrounding him. Everyone left with a sense of relief.

"Your Majesty, we have notified everyone. Everyone is packing up what they can take away."

A noble came to Vodka IV and whispered.

"Ouch, it hurts. OK, remember, let our ship be the second one. The first one to go out may be attacked. Put a few people you don't like on the first ship. Do you understand? Ouch, it hurts!"

Vodka IV wailed as he spoke. Lucci still told him about the move. In fact, Lucci didn't need to explain it so clearly. Vodka IV was also ready to run away. As long as he had money, he could find a place where he could continue to enjoy life. But if he didn't run away, if Kaido and Lily came back one year, he wouldn't be able to run away. So, although he was lying on the bed wailing at the moment, it didn't affect his order for all the nobles to move.

Moreover, he was careful. In order to prevent certain situations and for his own extravagant life in the future, he first notified those soldiers of the King's Army who were still loyal to him, and asked them to bring their families and disperse on various ships. When the time was right, he could eat up some of the guys he had long disliked. When he arrived at the City of Joy, he could start a luxurious life again, and even live a better life. After all, it was the City of Joy, a famous den of money on the Grand Route, and the various entertainment facilities were much better than those in the remote and poor country of the Kingdom of Woka.

"I understand, Your Majesty. I will make arrangements. Don't worry. I will have more people on the ship and no property. Even if the rebels don't take action, we can do it ourselves."

Another noble said with a grin, but the way he looked at Vodka IV was a little different. To be precise, he looked at Vodka IV like a fat pig waiting to be slaughtered. Vodka IV never thought that when he left the Kingdom of Woka, he would no longer be the heir to the member state recognized by the World Government, and he would no longer be protected by the laws of the World Government. His character also doomed him to have few real loyalists.

"Okay, okay, Ouch, I trust you guys to do your job, Ouch, go ahead, I'll go later, it hurts so much, that damn guy, he actually hit me so hard, hiss - by the way, how are the arrangements on the city wall going?"

Vodka IV is a fool, but he's not a complete fool. He's a little smart in internal fighting. He knows that he can't just run away with everyone, otherwise the other party will definitely chase him. If there's no one on the city wall, the other party will definitely attack. He must leave some people behind and pretend that they're still there. Only in this way can they take the opportunity to run away. As for those who stay on the city wall, they are naturally scapegoats.

"It has been arranged. According to the current progress, it can be completed by tomorrow night at the latest, so I have arranged tomorrow's shifts. They are all people with little influence or troublemakers. No one cares if they die. As long as they are comforted a little, there will be no problem by then."

A man dressed as a soldier came forward and said. He is the current leader of the King's Army and the most trusted person of Vodka IV. This person has been a lackey around Vodka IV since he was a child. After he became king, he immediately made this person the leader of guarding the kingdom. The best equipment and the highest military pay were given to these people just to ensure their own safety. After all, this kind of people cherish their lives the most.

"Very good, very good, bring some food over when the time comes. Anyway, it's the last meal for those guys. Let them eat something good. When they die, they will be full, right? Ouch, it hurts!"

Vodka IV had a sinister smile on his face, but in a moment, his skin trembled due to the smile, causing bruises to touch his clothes, and he began to wail again.

Several people continued to talk about some things in the constant wailing of Vodka IV, and then left with their own ulterior motives. No matter what, the palace was in chaos.

Vodka IV had a good idea. He left without anyone noticing and left some scapegoats here. However, the nobles were moving their belongings, and they could not move them all by themselves. The more they called, the more people came. They even called for help from the king's army who were on guard. In addition, they tried to rob each other's boats and wanted to leave as soon as possible, which led to a fight. In short, the news that the king and the nobles were going to run away began to spread from one to ten, and from ten to a hundred, and everyone knew about it.

When an avalanche occurs, it cannot be stopped by one or two people. The same is true for the collapse of authority. When everyone knew that Vodka IV was going to run away, his last bit of kingly majesty disappeared, and similarly, the majesty of the nobles also disappeared. At this time, everyone became crazy. Whoever has the strength is the real truth.

For a moment, there was loud gunfire throughout the palace. Some royal soldiers who were dissatisfied with the king and some thorny heads who wanted to fish in troubled waters immediately began to run rampant in the palace.

Things happened so fast that no one could react, not even the rebels outside the city, nor CP9 and CP0 inside the city.

None of them expected that such a simple thing could be made like this by Vodka IV. Wouldn't it just make you pack up your things and run away? Why did it turn into a riot? In the case of a riot, another riot is really weird. The other party didn't even attack, and you almost killed yourself just by your own actions!

"Gabra, Kaku, and Bruno, go to the dock and ensure that the ships filled with property will not be attacked. Owl, go and check our ship. Don't let anyone on board, and don't say anything more. Otherwise, I can guarantee that you will not be able to leave here alive. Go and find that idiot Vodka IV. You cannot let him die in a short time, at least not in the palace or on the land of the Woka Kingdom. Do you understand?"

Lu Qi shouted with blood-red eyes. There were too many things that happened this time that were beyond his expectation. He was very angry now and wanted to eat people on the spot. But as the captain, he must stay calm. If he is not calm, he will be killed. More things will happen that are beyond your control.

"yes!"

At this time, even Gabra, who usually likes to play devil's advocate, had no objections and immediately agreed to Lu Qi's plan. Then everyone started to act separately. They did not ask Lu Qi. After all, Lu Qi had only one choice at the moment, and that was Make sure the enemies outside don't take advantage of it, otherwise they will really fail their mission.

When Lu Qi rushed to the city wall defense line, he met the owl CP0 who came from behind. The owl CP0 looked at Lu Qi beside him, nodded with satisfaction and said:

"You were really good at staying calm in the face of danger and making the most correct choice. But now that guy's idea failed. He wanted to get it gilded for his son at the end, but it seems there is no hope. But okay Which trash didn't come, otherwise I'm afraid it would cause more trouble. Okay, boy, go back. This is not a battlefield you can get involved in now. Go back and bring out that idiot king with your companions. He can only die on the sea. , die in other countries, never in the palace, understand? "

After Owl CP0 finished speaking, he grabbed Lu Qi by the collar, and then threw Lu Qi back without any explanation. Lu Qi obviously wanted to persist a little longer, but in just a moment, he reappeared in the room where they used to stay. Among them, it is obvious that the owl CP0 has unknown devil fruit abilities.

"Damn it, I'm still too weak, I have to become stronger!"

For Lu Qi, this kind of protection represents shame. He feels that he has been underestimated. While he is angry about this, he is also a little helpless. It is indeed not something he can intervene in right now. In desperation, he can only choose to help Niao. After all, the owl CP0 was right. He knew very well what kind of pressure they would be under if Vodka IV died in the Woka Kingdom.
