Chapter 179 Troublesome Incident, Untraceable Evil!
The world of One Piece is a world full of contradictions. There are both fairy tale-like adventures and the scene of Shura unfolding in front of Ji Guoyuan and the others.
For the powerful and powerful, this world is like a dream, and all the beauty you can imagine can be obtained in this world.
Endless wealth? Monstrous power? A life surrounded by beautiful women? All of this is open to the strong.
But behind this dream world, what most ordinary people can taste is often pain.
Under Ji Guoyuanyi's instruction, Cyrus, a native returning home, jumped off the boat, found a young man dressed as a guard who was sitting on the ground resting, and asked about what happened here.
"My friend, is it convenient to ask, what happened here?"
Since last night, the guard's nerves have been in a state of high tension. After all, it is still unknown whether the pirates really retreated at that time. The guards sent by King Liku to the port to appease the people have always been tense. I am afraid that the pirates will suddenly go back.
After all, such things have happened before.
So when Cyrus came to him and asked about last night's situation, the guard was sitting on the ground with his hands limply on his knees, his head deeply buried in the middle of his legs, blocking the sun.
Hearing Cyrus' question, the young guard quickly raised his head and looked at Cyrus nervously, but when he saw that Cyrus was actually wearing a navy uniform, the guard was stunned , couldn't help but whispered:
"Sea Navy?!!"
The appearance of the navy really surprised the guards.
This is Dressrosa, which is located in the central area of the New World. It is difficult for the people living here to see the navy several times a year. In this day and age, the Navy doesn't have the strength to send too much force to the New World.
If you want to establish a branch in the new world, you need absolutely powerful combat power to sit in it, but nowadays, the high-end combat power of the Navy Headquarters is quite scarce. The only combat forces that were left were dispatched into the four seas to stabilize the basic base of the navy.
The moment he saw the navy, the nervousness on the young guard's face quickly disappeared. Then he remembered the question Cyrus had just asked him, and quickly answered:
"Pirates!"
"A pirate landed from this port yesterday and ransacked Dressrosa."
"These are all made by pirates!"
When the guard said this, his tone was full of hatred for pirates.
"Is it really a pirate?"
"What kind of pirate group? How many people are there?"
"Are there many people who suffered in Dressrosa? Has the palace been attacked? Have any prisoners been captured?"
When Cyrus heard that the tragedy at the port was created by the pirates, he didn't show any surprise. Before disembarking, he actually had some guesses in his mind.
At this time, it just proved his guess.
But after hearing that the pirates attacked Dressrosa, Cyrus also asked again and again. He desperately wants to know the news about those pirates, but please ask Ji Guoyuan to set sail to search for the traces of those pirates.
After all, Dressrosa is Cyrus' hometown, although this hometown did not bring too many good memories to Cyrus.
But his hometown is his hometown after all, and he absolutely can't just ignore the suffering of the people in his hometown.
Taking a step back, he is also a navy, and as a navy, he must not turn a blind eye to pirates.
"I don't know."
"The pirates came and went quickly. By the time we received the call from King Liku and rushed to the pier, the pirates had already disappeared."
"As for the suffering of the people."
"I'm not very clear, but from the pier to the edge of the city, nearby residents have been persecuted to varying degrees."
The rank of the guard is not high, and the things he knows are limited after all, and the ability to answer Cyrus' message is also quite limited.
However, when the guards said that from the pier to the edge of the city, the nearby residents had been persecuted to varying degrees, Cyrus' expression changed slightly.
"so much?!"
Although he hadn't counted them personally, when Cyrus heard this, he was able to roughly determine the number of people who suffered.
The port of Dressrosa is quite a distance from the city. This group of pirates was able to break through to the edge of the city, which shows the strength of these pirates.
This is Dressrosa, where there are tens of thousands of troops stationed here, not a town like Orange Town with few police officers.
Being able to do this kind of thing in Dressrosa, this group of pirates can be regarded as quite powerful. Afterwards, Cyrus asked some more information, then hurried back to the warship, and reported the matter to Ji Guoyuanyi.
"It's really tricky!"
"About this group of pirates, there is no useful information at all. In this case, even if we want to hunt them down, there is no way to find them!"
"Lieutenant General, what shall we do?!"
Koshiro and the others also listened to the information that Cyrus found out with Enichi. After hearing these messages, Koshiro couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and said helplessly.
Facing the pirates who come and go without a trace, even if Ji Guoyuan's army has enough terrifying power, there is nothing he can do.
This sea is really too big, and the navy's intelligence sources in the New World waters are also very scarce. Navigating in the new world also relies on record pointers.
Going out to sea to find a pirate group with no news is actually no different from finding a needle in a haystack.
"."
"There is no way. Manpower is sometimes poor. We must realize our own insignificance."
After listening to Cyrus' report, Guoyuanyi began to think about countermeasures, thinking of a good way to find this group of pirates and wipe them out.
But after thinking for a long time, Yuan Yi could only shake his head and sigh.
If only the world had global satellites
Yuan Yi couldn't help thinking of this in his heart.
"hateful!"
Hearing this, Cyrus couldn't help cursing in a low voice, full of anger. His anger wasn't directed at Ji Guoyuan, he just hated the hatefulness of the pirates, hated himself for being incompetent, and couldn't help the people resist the disaster in time.
The other people on the deck also fell silent after hearing Yuanyi's words.
Yuanyi stood on the deck, tapped on the railing lightly with one hand, and frowned.
In order to exercise justice in the new world, in addition to strength, one must also have powerful intelligence. The G-ICE branch of Shuixian Xingdao has been established up to now, and finding pirates is all about luck, or waiting for pirates to come to them on their own initiative.
"Um?!"
Thinking of this, Yuanyi's brows stretched out, he patted the depressed Cyrus, and said:
"Cyrus, I can understand your feelings, although we can't take the initiative to go to sea to try our luck to find pirates."
"But... we can wait for the pirates to come to us!"
"You just said that the pirates only invaded to the edge of the city and did not advance further? Moreover, the army here did not capture any prisoners or kill any of these pirates?"
"In this case, I think these pirates may rob Dressrosa again."
"Wealth, there is no threat to this group of pirates, and... the first plunder, failed to advance to the center of the city."
"Such a fat sheep waiting to be discovered, if I were a pirate, I would definitely come a second time!"
