Chapter 178
"General Peach Rabbit is indeed very impressive, but let's see if we can come in first..."
From the shadows, a woman wearing cool clothes walked out, her mouth slightly raised.
Even though he pressed the brim of his hat slightly, Gion recognized him at a glance.
"Queen of Happy Street? What are you doing here?"
She also knew Stussy's dual identity, but why was she in Ling Bai's office.
"What can I do..."
Stusi smiled charmingly and winked at Ling Bai, "Of course I hope Lieutenant General Ling Bai can support the peach industry on Peach Blossom Island...".
Chapter 228 Did this woman take the wrong medicine? (Please give me flowers!)
Stussy's figure is charming, and she has a sense of coquettishness invisibly.
However, she misjudged the situation.
Swish——
With a flash of cold light, Jinpilao stopped firmly at Stussy's throat, and the sword edge drew a shallow mark on his smooth neck! .
This mark is just deep enough to feel pain but not bleed.
"what do you mean......"
The muscles on Stussy's face twitched. She didn't expect Gion's reaction to be so violent.
My neck was extremely stiff and I didn't dare to move!
She could feel that there was indeed a flash of killing intent at the moment when Gion showed his sharp edge!
"Only winemaking is allowed on this island!"
Gion's tone was cold, he looked at Stussy without emotion, and continued, "I will never allow you to tarnish justice with your peach industry!"
"you......"
Stacey bit her lip.
She was just teasing him casually. Is this how the murderous intent came about?
Does this woman have such a strong sense of justice?
But after thinking about it, Stussy can also understand. After all, Gion is also a woman, so it is reasonable to dislike the peach industry.
She immediately said: "It's just a joke. I came here with the order of the World Government..."
But Gion still said unceremoniously:
"Then dress more formally! Look like a government worker!"
After finishing his words, Jin Piluo threw out a sword flower and put it into its sheath.
Very dissatisfied!
"Did this woman take the wrong medicine..."
Stussy looked at Gion with slightly narrowed eyes!
She couldn't figure out what the cool clothes she wore had to do with Gion. Besides, Gion himself wasn't dressed warmly either!
"It seems that everyone has already said hello..."
Ling Bai held the wine bottle and looked at the two of them meaningfully.
His body swayed and he sat down in his position as branch leader.
"Why......"
Stussy said pitifully, "Lieutenant General Ling Bai, too, didn't even try to stop me when he saw me being threatened. He really doesn't know how to show mercy..."
Because she is used to it, her voice becomes softer and softer. Normally, a man would be a little unable to control himself after hearing this.
However, before Stussi finished speaking, she suddenly felt an extremely cold gaze staring at her.
The corners of her mouth twitched a few times, and she clenched her fists subconsciously.
This Gion must have taken the wrong medicine!
"If you can't speak well, let CP0 be replaced by someone who can!" Gion said coldly.
Seeing this, Ling Bai raised the corner of his mouth slightly.
On the surface, he was indifferent and continued to drink.
His knowledge has long captured Stussy, and there are many calls for the restoration of the sex industry on the island.
Naturally, he would not allow this to affect Taohua Island’s brewing industry!
But now it seems that Gion should help him solve all his worries.
Stussy felt resentful in her heart, but due to her status as a Gion general, she had to break her teeth and swallow, put her clothes away, and said seriously:
"Lieutenant General Ling Bai, the World Government sent me here to give you a task!"
With that said, Stusi handed a stack of documents and a reward order to Ling Bai.
"It's not appropriate to bypass the Navy Marshal and directly ask CP0 to arrange tasks!"
Ling Bai did not open the file, but took a sneak peek at the reward order.
"Sea Hero" Jinbe has a bounty of 438 million Berry!
Gion also discovered Jinbei's reward order and said softly: "Didn't Jinbei be recruited to serve as king in the Shichibukai some time ago? What? The World Government wants to take action against him so soon?"
Jinbe's identity is very special. He is the leader of the Sun Pirates and the successor of Fisher Tiger who once caused trouble in the Holy Land Mariejoia!
In a sense, he can be said to be the person who inherited Tiger's spiritual legacy. When he agreed to become the King of the Shichibukai, the entire navy debated Jinbei's position on this.
However, because the Navy did not participate much in the entire recruitment process, and the focus at that time was on Kaido, Jinbei gradually faded out of the Navy's sight, until he was taken out by Stussy today.
"Don't worry, you two! This mission was issued directly from above. It is not considered ultra vires, and it is not intended to target Jinbei. There are just some things that need to be investigated..." Stussy explained.
"Investigation?" Gion said solemnly, "Isn't it your CP0's job to investigate? Ling Bai is now the head of the G-9 branch. Does he still have to help your intelligence organization?"
She believed that the people in the World Government had absolutely no good intentions.
Hearing the sound, Stussy felt like her lungs were going to explode.
She was obviously here to talk to Ling Bai, so why did Taotu keep interrupting her and being so hostile at every turn!
And he kept his eyes fixed on her, not even giving Ling Bai a chance to wink.
As for Ling Bai, it was more like he was deaf, with drooped eyelids, drinking wine, as if everything had nothing to do with him!
Normally, Stussy would have left long ago to avoid getting into trouble, but this time it was a death order from above and she was not given a choice at all.
She had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "At least, please allow me to finish the task!
Jinbei became king and came to the Shichibukai because the government wanted to ease the relationship with the fishmen, but until now, the fishman island is still under the jurisdiction of Whitebeard, so people have to be suspicious..."
"Since you suspect that Jinbei is helping Whitebeard, can't you just go and investigate on your own?" Gion said aggressively.
"But Fish-Man Island is very dangerous, and you need strong combat power to log in stably! Moreover, the task is not complicated. We found out that Jinbe recently collected a batch of famous wine and planned to bring it to Whitebeard. We just wanted to verify whether it was just wine. ..."
Just after Stussy finished speaking, Gion secretly said something bad.
Since he suspected that the transaction items contained something important, how could he mention the concealing wine twice.
It must be said to attract Ling Bai's attention!
"Famous wine? How many are there?"
Sure enough, Ling Bai, who had been silent all this time, reacted immediately when he heard that it was related to wine.
Stussy raised the corner of her mouth, but said cleverly, "You also know that Whitebeard is tall, and a barrel of wine in his hand is about the same as a pot. If Jinbei wants to be courteous, he will need at least two boats... "
"Two ships of famous wine?" Ling Bai had a satisfied smile on his face.
But Gion's forehead was covered with black lines.
You are really a good person...
"On the other hand, hasn't the official approval document for G-9 been issued yet? As long as Lieutenant General Ling Bai is willing to go in person, I believe that G-9 will be approved shortly after the voyage!"
Stussy changed the topic and mentioned another benefit.
"Coercion and inducement..."
Ling Bai touched his chin, actually sneering in his heart.
Instead, he took out a roll of newspapers from under the drawer, threw it to Stussy and said:
"I wonder if this trip to Fish-Man Island has something to do with the news about the shipwreck of the Draco ship?"
Chapter 229 Are you going to touch the holy land? (Please give me flowers!)
Gion was originally worried that Ling Bai would not be able to withstand the double temptation.
But when Ling Bai dropped this news, she immediately understood the purpose of the World Government!
On the surface, it was to investigate whether Jinbei might have some kind of deal with Whitebeard under the cover of wine, but in fact, it was to bring Lingbai and the Tianlong people into contact!
He told her not long ago that there are people above who are worried about Ling Bai. He is powerful but not easy to control. In the future, he will definitely find a way to test Ling Bai's attitude towards the world's nobles.
She read this news report yesterday. Some Celestial Dragons wanted to go to Fishman Island to capture the slaves liberated by Fisher Tiger, but a shipwreck occurred.
Although the news broke out immediately, the Navy did not take action because of the deep location of Fish-Man Island and the location of Whitebeard, and the fact that the source of the intelligence was unreliable.
Of course, the most important reason is that the navy was not required to take action.
"Are they all waiting here?" Gion thought to himself.
"how could be......"
Stussy said awkwardly, "The task of rescuing Musgarud Saint has been handed over to 'Sea Knight' Jinbei, but we suspect that Jinbei will use the opportunity of protecting the world's nobles to transfer the trading goods, so the possibility of you encountering him is still very big......"
"How can such a poor lying skill achieve CP0?"
Ling Bai stared at Stussy playfully.
Gion stood behind Ling Bai and said seriously:
"The world's nobles are here to catch slaves. They must be extremely frightened when facing a group of fishmen. If you, the vice-admiral, appear in his field of vision at this time, he will definitely grasp it as a life-saving straw and ask you to escort him. Go back to the Holy Land!"
Hearing the sound, Stussy couldn't help but look at Gion twice.
This woman actually has such analytical skills.
"How?" Ling Bai still had a smile on his face.
"Anyway, this is the mission!"
Naturally, Stussy would not admit it, but just said meaningfully, "Even if Lieutenant General Ling Bai refuses this time, it will only make the higher-ups assign more difficult tasks, right?"
The implication is obvious!
In the end, Ling Bai will inevitably come into contact with the world's nobles.
"Are you threatening?" Gion gently placed his hand on Jinpira.
"This is my advice!" Stussy said to Ling Bai, "After all, it would be too easy if my task was just to escort the world's nobles back to the Holy Land!"
Hearing the sound, Gion couldn't help but grit his teeth.
Indeed, escorting is indeed easy, and you may even be asked to capture slaves, kill innocent people, snatch treasures, etc.!
When she was promoted to general, He had fully taught her to try to detect the position of the Celestial Dragons in advance and avoid them.
Unless someone attacks the Celestial Dragons first and forces the Navy to step in, try your best not to have anything to do with the Celestial Dragons!
This is the way to be a general!
"It seems I can't make a choice!"
Ling Bai seemed to give in and put the documents away.
Seeing this, Stusi showed a satisfied look and said: "Lieutenant General Ling Bai is very aware of the situation, but he is still willing to protect the world's nobles. I will convey this news truthfully!"
Gion listened to this in his heart, and for some reason, he felt very uncomfortable.
If she, as a general, is allowed to go, it is obviously reasonable, but this game is clearly set up for Ling Bai.
After so long of contact, this is the first time she has seen Ling Bai compromise.
But who can do it?
