Chapter 260 As usual, free the slaves! (2-in-1)

January 1504 in the Haiyuan calendar.

A phone call from Wulaoxing made Warring States frown, who had just spent a wonderful holiday.

The first thing he said was the escort mission of 20 warships. This was the first time he encountered such a thing after he successfully took over the position of marshal.

This kind of escort mission also reminded Warring States of the war that should have shocked the world more than ten years ago, but ended up being silent.

"It's obviously been quiet for so many years."

"Why at this time."

Warring States stood up from his seat, slowly walked to the window with a gloomy face, and looked outside through the window. It's winter now, and the sun is shining brightly at noon. Standing in front of the window sill, the sunlight hits Seng Guo's body, making Seng Guo's face feel warm.

The Navy Headquarters has not fully resumed operations after the year. The vast majority of mid-level and senior general officers are on leave, and only some sailors on duty still remain at the Navy Headquarters.

There are only a few warships parked at the headquarters' military port. In the square in the distance, idle navy officers gathered together, chatting in the sun.

However, this rare leisure and tranquility was broken by the phone call from Tianlong.

After standing in front of the window sill for a long time, Warring States sighed heavily, walked to his desk, picked up the receiver of the phone bug, and after successfully dialing, he said to the other end of the phone bug: "Polusali No, please come to my office."

"I have an important task for you!"

Three days later, the Navy Headquarters successfully assembled twenty warships, and under the leadership of Admiral Porusalino, they sailed out of the headquarters port in a mighty manner.

"It's really troublesome!"

On the warship leading the fleet, Porusalino, who was wearing a yellow and white striped suit, scratched his scalp irritably and murmured in his mouth.

The first destination for the fleet that left the Navy Headquarters was the Chambord Islands.

At this time, a brand new white giant ship was docked on the coast of the Shampoo Islands. The entire ship was nearly two hundred meters long and nearly twenty meters high. The traditional wooden structure of the sailboat was painted with delicate white paint. , looks quite high-end.

Although the sails on the mast were furled, the few small World Government flags fluttering in the wind from the sides of the ship could also let people know the purpose of the ship.

In this world, the only people who can use this kind of flag are the Tianlong people and their intelligence agency - CP.

Not long after the white ship stopped, a group of CP members wearing black suits quickly lowered the long ladder, and then a group of people stepped off the ship one after another. At the entrance of the wooden ladder, they separated into two rows, with a the way.

After a long time, dense footsteps sounded from the depths of the island.

Under the gaze of everyone in CP, a group of Tianlong people with bubbles on their heads appeared in their sight, surrounded by their entourage.

The originally quiet port suddenly became noisy with the appearance of the Tianlong people and their entourage.

The Tianlong people chatted with each other and boarded the white giant ship one after another. At the same time that the Tianlong people boarded the white giant ship, 20 headquarters warships led by Porusalino also arrived at Shampoo. waters near the Islands.

Porusalino did not order the fleet to dock, but just stopped on the sea, quietly waiting for the World Government's ships to leave the Shampoo Islands.

As the sails of the giant white ship with the World Government logo on them were raised, dozens of ships left the Shampoo Islands one after another.

And not long after these ships left, more than a dozen slave ships belonging to the Shampoo Islands Chamber of Commerce docked on the shore. Not long after, a group of ragged slaves with shackled hands and feet were driven to the shore by CP. They were forced onto these slave ships one after another, and then left the Chambord Islands.

The Tianlong people had made preparations for their trip early. They had the CPs clear the place in advance on their way down from the Holy Land.

The people of the Shampoo Islands only knew that certain islands were blocked today, but they did not know what happened to those islands after they were blocked.

Therefore, no one noticed the Tianlong people's travels.

Ouch. It’s actually wrong to say that no one noticed.

Because not long after the World Government ship and the slave ship left the dock, in the woods next to the dock, a blond middle-aged man slowly walked out from behind the shadow of a big tree.

In this winter, the man was wearing a white cloak, a pair of large pants, and a pair of straw sandals. After the boats left one after another, he slowly walked to the coast and watched the boats leaving. direction, his eyes became deep.

"Huh?" Suddenly, the blond man seemed to have noticed something, and quickly pulled out the long knife from his waist, pointed the tip of the knife towards the dense forest not far away, and said with a serious expression:

"I can't believe there's anyone else here besides me?"

"Come out!"

Not long after the blond man finished speaking, a gust of breeze came from the forest. In the blink of an eye, a tall figure wearing a black cloak appeared in front of the blond man.

"I never expected that the legendary Pluto Rayleigh would actually be on this island."

"Mr. Reilly, are you here specifically to see off the Celestial Dragons?"

A deep voice came from under the cloak. As he spoke, the man in the cloak raised his head slightly, revealing that young face.

"you"

"Then this boy is."

"Garp's son?"

Like Rayleigh, the person who spied on the Celestial Dragons was none other than the dragon who had disappeared from this world for many years.

Rayleigh and Garp can be regarded as "old friends", and they are fairly familiar with Garp's situation. Dragon was once a navy trained by Garp with high hopes. The Roger Pirates also met Dragon several times.

"long time no see!"

"Mr. Rayleigh." Long greeted Rayleigh with a smile. As he spoke, he turned his head and looked in the direction where the Draco ship left, and the smile on his face disappeared.

"I heard you're no longer in the Navy?"

"Hahaha, it's really ironic!"

Although Rayleigh retired after Roger's death, he still had some understanding of some things happening in this world. Although Long's departure from the navy was deliberately concealed by the navy, people with an eye can still detect it.

not to mention.

Now Long is a wanted criminal!

"The bounty is three hundred and sixty million beli, the volunteer army's staff officer, Long."

"Garp really gave birth to a good son!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Lei Li looked very happy when he saw the dragon. The long knife in his hand had already been put into the sheath. At this moment, looking at the dragon in front of him, he couldn't help laughing happily.

Long didn't feel embarrassed and asked Reilly with a smile: "Mr. Reilly, why are you here?"

After hearing Long's words, Rayleigh raised his head, stretched, and said casually: "A retired old man is just wandering around."

"It's you, why are you here?"

Facing Lei Li's temptation, Long did not answer directly, changed the subject, and complimented: "Old man? Mr. Lei Li, you really like to joke."

"You are in your prime. As the most relied-upon vice-captain of the Pirate King, there is no way you can be connected with a retired man!"

"Mr. Reilly, do you want to enrich your life?"

Long asked with a smile, a hint of expectation in his eyes.

Hearing this, Lei Li couldn't help laughing, shook his head and said, "With old arms and legs, what else can you get?"

"I just want to live a normal life now."

Rayleigh put his hands on his neck. He seemed to have lost interest in continuing to chat with the dragon. He turned around and walked towards the depths of the island.

"gone."

“Young man, live your abundant life!”

He waved his hand behind Long's back, and Rayleigh's figure slowly disappeared from Long's sight.

Long did not step forward to stop the idea of ​​continuing to persuade. After watching Rayleigh leave, a breeze suddenly rose from the coast. The next moment, there was no one on the coast.

Under the sea, Fishman Island.

"Brother Jinbei!"

"Brother Jinbei!"

In the Navy branch on Coral Street, a loud shout immediately attracted the attention of many passing fishmen. Jinbei, who was instructing his subordinates to practice "Murloc Karate" on the school grounds, turned around when he heard the shout, and admonished with some helplessness:

"How many times have I told you not to call me brother when we are in the branch!"

"We are the Navy, not some random social group!"

The young fishman who came to report quickly rushed to Jinbei. After being scolded by Jinbei, he nodded hurriedly, took a breath and said:

"Okay, Brother Jinbei."

"Brother, I have something important to report. This morning, a large number of warships appeared at the Chambord Islands."

"Then the warships escorted away a giant cruise ship flying the flag of the World Government."

"Not long after these ships left, the Milo Chamber of Commerce's slave ship appeared in the Shampoo Islands and left with the slaves."

"According to the brothers monitoring the Shampoo Islands, these people should be heading to the West Sea."

Although the title of his subordinate made Jinbei feel a little helpless, after hearing the news from the other party, Jinbei no longer focused on the less important title.

Since he came to Fish-Man Island and established a naval branch, the branch on Fish-Man Island quickly got on track and began to operate.

The Fishman Island branch is responsible for two main things:

The first is to guard the Fishman Island and attack passing pirates; and the second is to monitor the waters around the Shampoo Islands and collect information.

The reason is also very simple. As the "end point" of the first half of the Great Line, all pirates who set their goal on the "Great Secret Treasure" must use the Chambord Islands as a springboard before they can go to the new world.

Monitoring the waters around the Shampoo Islands and collecting intelligence will help Jiguoyuan and others guarding the entrance to the New World to grasp the situation of the pirate "rookies" at the first time, so as to intercept and attack them in a targeted manner.

Since Yuanyi's route blocking plan was launched, several of their branches have also gained a lot, killing many "rookies" worth one to two billion pirates.

I don’t know how many pirates worth tens of millions were killed.

Jinbei and the other marines from the Fish-Man Island branch were promoted as fast as they could get on a plane. And in the New World Navy led by Kuni Enichi, promotion speed is like a rocket.

Of course, under such siege and interception, there are still capable pirates who can avoid the navy's pursuit and successfully enter the new world.

And these pirates who escaped also spread the word that there was a navy stationed on Fish-Man Island, which made the pirates who were unprepared to dive into Fish-Man Island learn to hide.

This made Jinbei's identification work a lot harder, and what's even worse is that Jinbei leading his fish-men subordinates alone cannot deal with all the pirates. In order to increase the success rate of passing through the fish-man island, the pirates , usually chosen in groups.

And because the bubbles above Fish-Man Island were too big, it was difficult for Jinbei to intercept those people in the deep sea in advance. This made Jinbei focus on training troops and collecting intelligence.

He did not forget his mission.

The key tasks given to him by Tsukuni Enichi are to protect Fish-Man Island and collect intelligence, and pursue pirates. Under these two tasks.

"Are there any slave ships in the navy escorting the World Government ships?"

After hearing the report from his subordinates, Jinbei pondered for a few seconds, and then asked: "The news, are you sure?"

"Of course, Brother Jinbei, I have faxed back the photos I witnessed."

With that said, the fishman who came to report took out a few photos from his arms and handed them to Jinbei.

These photos seem to have been taken on the sea surface, and are very far away from the target. In the photos, the ships look very small and can only be vaguely recognized.

Jinbei strictly prohibited the intelligence officers from approaching the Shampoo Islands. It was enough to be able to identify the appearance.

"You wait here for me, I will report the situation to the general."

Seeing this group of photos, Jinbei didn't hesitate. After speaking, he took the photos and walked directly to his office.

Mystria Island.

As the navy branch of Jiguo Enichi stabilized, markets also appeared around the navy branch. Human beings are best at seizing so-called "business opportunities."

The maritime environment has become stable, and such a large group of people in the naval branch will always generate consumption.

Therefore, around the navy branch, people who realized the business opportunities spontaneously gathered together and slowly formed small towns.

There are pubs and restaurants in the towns. The gathering of people will drive consumption, and the gathering of people will form commerce.

The island of Mystria is becoming prosperous at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Just when Tsukuni Enichi received a call from Jinbei, he was "training" with Mihawk in his branch.

When the phone bug rang, the bamboo knife in Yuanyi's hand casually deflected Mihawk's attack, and then took out the phone bug from his arms.

"A large number of navy warships escorting?"

"A dozen slave ships?"

"Is there anyone on board?"

"Um"

After roughly understanding the situation, Ji Guoyuan made a decision.

Whether it's people from the World Government on official business or people from the Celestial Dragons traveling. None of this matters about his succession to the country.

but

He really wants to get involved in things like slave ships transporting slaves!

This is not the first time that Enichi has done the same thing to Jinbei. In the past, when Jinbei and the others discovered slave ships, they would destroy them and free the slaves.

As for whether freeing slaves will cause trouble for the navy?

Are you kidding me? Slave traders had to eat too much to rebel against the navy? After being intercepted by Jinbei and the others, one can only hope that Jinbei and the others will not drive them away and kill them all.

Except for the fact that Jinbei didn't restrain Aaron and his gang at the beginning and they saw blood, most of the time it was still peaceful.

The slave traders of the Shampoo Islands also realized that the navy of Jinbei and his group could not deal with them, so they often hid something when transporting slaves.

After all, the number of murlocs monitoring the waters of the Chambord Islands is not large, and it is impossible to identify all the slave ships. This makes the slave trading business in the Chambord Islands still prosperous, but it has just shifted from the original open surface to "underground".

As for why the monitoring murlocs discovered these ships were slave ships so easily this time.

Because this time, those people had no intention of covering up. There were slaves shackled on the decks of those slave ships, cleaning the ground!

"Jinbei, just like usual."

"Force those slave traders into the sea and free the slaves."

"Those who have a home to return to have to pay the travel expenses, and those who are homeless and have suffered a severe blow are sent to Mystria."

"I will ask Kuzan to send someone to cooperate with you."

When Ji Guoyuan heard the report, he didn't think too much or take the matter too seriously. He issued the order as usual.

The release of slaves has always been done by Jinbei and his branch, and then Kuzan, who has now become a general and has been stationed at the navy headquarters all year round, sent people to coordinate and send the slaves home.

After working together for so long, we have already formed a tacit understanding and routine.
