Chapter 167 Enemies of the Baroque Working Society
It was yesterday that we landed on Darwin Island. Today Ikarem and Weiwei met Robin.
The real man behind the incident was revealed from Sunday.
certainly,
Icarim and Weiwei couldn't help but wonder, is Ron the real boss of Baroque Works?
The encounter at Whiskey Peak was just a scam. After all, Weiwei's identity as a princess could indeed be exploited by her enemies.
The most important thing is,
Too fast, really too fast.
Ikarem completely did not understand the senior agent of Baroque Works who originally vowed to kill them.
Why were those terrifyingly powerful and invincible combinations of demonic users all defeated in that thunderstorm night?
In the end, in less than a day, it was recognized that Ron was the boss of Baroque Works.
What the hell,
He and Princess Weiwei worked hard to lurk for a year, but they only managed to get to the position of command.
As soon as Ron came here, within a week or so, he became the boss of Baroque Works.
How can one believe this?
Not to mention it was him, Princess Weiwei was also skeptical at the time. After all, Ron was the boss of Baroque Works.
Make a play to induce them, while having Robin guide the so-called Black Hand to Crocodile.
That makes sense.
After all, Crocodile looks like a brilliant person on the surface.
If Ron was originally the boss of Baroque Works, he wanted to get rid of Crocodile without alerting the officials.
This method is obviously necessary, and even the royal family of Alabasta will join in the operation against Crocodile.
Even if Crocodile's ability is sand, it is very suitable for the ability to cause a country to suffer drought for several years.
But after seeing Ron's magic, Weiwei didn't dare to say that this person couldn't do it.
In the midst of hesitation, Robin finally gave the decisive evidence.
Video recording, audio recording, and part of the planning process.
For Robin, who lives in a dark world, preparing some black material to backstab the original owner is simply a normal thing.
certainly,
Ron doesn't have this treatment yet.
Robin came this time with a lot of work agenda.
For example, the current job is to make Weiwei confirm that Crocodile is the mastermind behind the scenes.
tomorrow morning,
Robin needs to report to Crocodile, his former boss.
Crocodile felt that he had complete control over Robin, and to ensure that he could be separated from Baroque Works in the event of an accident.
He has almost no contact with matters related to the Baroque Working Society, and only listens to Robin's reports to learn about it.
This gives Robin room to play.
certainly,
Neither Ron nor Robin thought Crocodile was some random fool.
This man who is good at conspiracy is also a thoughtful person.
What Ron and the others are striving for is just a window of several days.
The inertia of thinking will prevent Crocodile from detecting the truth in time. By the time he discovers something is wrong, it is already too late!
Tomorrow afternoon,
Robin will go to the royal capital, take Vivi, Ikarem and those black materials to see the king, Kobra.
At the same time, confirm whether the historical text is in the Burial Ceremony Hall.
After confirming it, she needed to copy the content and hand it over to Ron.
As an advance payment to the revolutionary army.
And the morning after tomorrow,
Robin would rush to La Rohana to chair the collective meetings of the Baroque Working Society.
During this period, Ron will also start his operation.
"You can start setting off now, I will arrange the mounts and vehicles."
Robin left these words and left.
"Can we return to the capital?"
Ikarem and Weiwei looked at each other, and then returned to the room of the Enlightenment to discuss.
After it was determined that Crocodile was the mastermind, the top priority was naturally to bring this information back.
so,
Both Ikarem and Weiwei think this is a good thing.
But with good there comes bad.
For example,
10 billion beli,
For individuals, this is a completely unaffordable price tag.
Let alone 10 billion, even 100 million Baileys.
It can also buy an ordinary person's soul, dignity, life, etc.
but,
If this price were imposed on a country, it would not be as scary as it seems.
Alabasta is such a country, with a standing army of 600,000 and a population of tens of millions.
This is Ron's perspective,
From Weiwei's perspective, she felt that the price offered by the other party was not excessive.
10 billion, in exchange for the country not being in turmoil, and in exchange for the disappearance of an enemy spying on the royal power.
It's a more than appropriate price, after all, money is just money.
but,
In Ikarem's eyes, 10 billion may not be something the kingdom can afford.
"Did you know, Your Highness, the heavenly gold of the Celestial Dragons? In order to pay enough heavenly gold, the kingdom must set aside 60% of its annual budget.
We are actually pretty good. The country is big enough and we have enough financial resources.
There is no need to squeeze the people, it can be paid for by taxes alone.
But for other countries, it is simply more than 60%.
Moreover, the expenditure on military and political construction is also a large sum of money, accounting for at least 20%.
The remaining 10% is reserved for the royal family as a whole, and the last layer is returned to the national treasury.
Just because of the severe droughts in the past few years, the state treasury has reached its limit in consecutive years in order to support the affected people.
Even King Kobra has begun to reduce royal family expenditures to fill this big hole. "
Icarim is so worried.
As the captain of the guard, he knew more than the princess.
It's not because of anything else, but His Majesty the King will never let Princess Weiwei know about these 'troubles'.
Just now,
He had to bring it up.
Even if His Majesty Cobra is willing, he may not be able to come up with such a large sum of money.
after all,
When they left the royal capital, Ikarem knew that taxes in some places were not coming in.
Among them was a major city - Juba!
Because of Crocodile's conspiracy and dancing fans, the royal family has actually lost the trust of its people.
Yuba is just the beginning. Ikarem vaguely heard that a resistance army has been established.
Princess Weiwei doesn't know this.
"Can we give up then?"
Weiwei asked back, staring at Ikarem with firm eyes.
"I think it's impossible."
Ikarem smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Krokdal is a desperate opponent. Legend has it that enemies who face him will be turned into dust by the sand.
Even if we stop trading now, even if Ron is willing, we are not sure we can solve this matter. "
"Yes, and there is one more crucial thing."
Weiwei combed her long light blue hair into a high ponytail and said calmly: "That person is very purposeful.
If he goes back on his word after paying and is unable to pay the price he originally promised, he may also become our enemy.
Alabasta could not afford the revenge of a second Crocodile.
It took him less than a week to completely dismantle and even take control of our helpless Baroque Working Society.
Is there really any chance of winning against such an enemy? "
"Well, we can only hope that the royal family still has enough funds."
Icarem stopped reminding him, he was just a soldier after all.
For important decisions like this, the Maritime Safety Administration should be left to His Majesty the King.
"Don't worry, Ikarem, everything will be fine."
Weiwei suddenly smiled, patted Ikarem on the back, and walked out of the room with her hands behind her back.
If the country has reached a point where it really cannot pay the price of 10 billion beli
She also has a good idea.
After communicating with Nokigao, Nami and even Bonnie, Weiwei knew.
Ron was actually not the bad guy she thought he was before. On the contrary, he was actually a good person in terms of his behavior.
so,
She has a countermeasure for bullying good guys.
It's just that the situation of the country has not been determined before, Crocodile's death and the demise of the Baroque Working Society have not been determined.
Weiwei can't move,
Because the cost of this response was very huge for herself.
Robin's abilities were impeccable, and under her arrangement, the senior agents were transferred to La Rohana, where the level of recuperation was higher.
Although it is not the best, the senior agents who have just experienced a tragic defeat know it.
There was going to be a meeting soon, where they would really get to know the masters of Baroque Works.
The black-haired man who defeated them completely like a beast.
And Mr.1-Shura who killed Mr.1 and became the new Mr.1.
In addition, there are personnel changes, and no senior agent dares to be absent.
They can only wait here for instructions to convene the meeting.
And in the rain outside La Rohana,
Robin had just received a report from Crocodile who had destroyed a group of blind pirates.
"Is everything resolved?"
"Yes, but the opponent is very strong. Mr.1 was injured and has been sent to his old place to recuperate and take leave."
"Oh? It's not surprising. After all, he was defeated by an emperor."
Crocodile picked up the information and threw it on the table with a sneer: "But that's all.
It's not surprising that such a miscreant would die just because he was bragging about a piece of history that he had been defeated.
The emperor's men were defeated? Who is not! "
He stood up with a look of disgust on his face and waved his hand towards Robin: "That's it for today, let the people below pay attention to the pirates' movements.
If anyone might cause trouble, I want to know immediately.
The plan has reached the most critical moment. I want the reputation of the Desert King to completely overwhelm the voices of those who stubbornly trust Kobra!
This guy, this authority, is the enemy of our Baroque Work Society! "
In Crocodile's eyes, this is the most important thing.
after all,
Alabasta's kings have been benevolent kings for several generations, and the reputation they have accumulated among their people is extremely terrifying.
Without dismantling it, it is impossible to firmly control this country.
Pluto's battleship also requires manual maintenance, repair, maintenance and use.
There is no better option than usurping the country.
"yes."
Robin bowed his head respectfully and heard Crocodile's last voice.
"And Robin, don't let me down, you know, you don't have a better choice."
wrong,
Better options have found me.
Robin quietly stared at the retreating figure in the corridor, his blue-black eyes shining with a cold light.
‘Krokdal, you are the enemy of Baroque Works! ’
