Chapter 409
Dragon walked over quickly, half squatted, and picked up the newspaper on the ground.
The date of the newspaper was one day ago. It should have been brought by the poor people who came to "see a doctor" and "pray". After all, for these people, reading newspapers is the lowest-cost entertainment activity.
However, what attracted Dragon's attention was the content of this crumpled newspaper.
The front-page headline with a shocking headline firmly attracted his eyes.
"Live broadcast!! Invasion of Wan Guo!! The new vice admiral of the navy Rogers Darren invaded Wan Guo Snack Island alone and strongly suppressed Charlotte Owen, the cadre of the BIG MOM Pirates!"
Under the title was a very long report, including Darren's dialogue with the camera during the live broadcast of Den Den Mushi.
Looking at the newspaper in his hand, Dragon was stunned.
"Is this the latest newspaper? We have been staying in this church for the past few days without going out. It seems that something great has happened."
Xiong dragged his slightly tired body over, glanced at the newspaper, and was stunned.
"This is a warning..." Dorag stared at the content of the newspaper with his eyes, and a touch of excitement gradually appeared on his face. His hands holding the newspaper trembled involuntarily.
"I didn't expect Darren to have done this... Invade the Ten Thousand Kingdoms!!"
"Threaten all pirates with a live broadcast to the whole world!!"
The shock was hard to hide on Xiong's face, and he murmured:
"Besides you, there are actually such courageous people in the navy... Wait, Dragon, isn't this Vice Admiral Darren the "close friend" you mentioned before?"
Dragon proudly puffed out his chest, nodded and smiled:
"Yes, when he went from the North Sea to the headquarters for training, I was still escorting him all the way. I didn't expect him to have gone so far."
But as he spoke, his tone was inevitably a little emotional.
Watching his close friend climb up step by step on the path he chose and making such brilliant achievements.
And the self who once made bold statements to Darren is still hiding from place to place, living a life of not having enough food, wandering on the sea like a blind fly. Dragon's mood was a little mixed for a while, and his expression was particularly complicated.
Xiong looked at Dragon's sad and deep profile, raised his hand and patted his shoulder, and said solemnly:
"I believe you will succeed, Dragon."
He thought for a while and added:
"Don't worry, I will try to save money in the future."
Dragon smiled unhappily.
"Wait..."
He suddenly remembered something, touched his chin and pondered.
"Maybe we don't have to worry about money in the future."
Xiong was slightly stunned, and then looked at Dragon with some excitement:
"What's wrong, have you found a way to make money?"
It's not so easy to be a pirate hunter. Before the great pirate era began, there were still a few people who went out to sea as pirates.
With a limited number of pirates, coupled with the competition from other bounty hunters, they wanted to rely on hunting pirates to get bounties to form their own army... It's simply a long way off.
Dragon looked at the photo of the vice admiral published in the report in the newspaper and smiled meaningfully.
"We don't have money, but someone does..."

New world.
Darren slowly woke up from a soft big bed.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he felt an unprecedented fatigue and pain, like a tidal wave, impacting every part of his body.
The muscles were burning with pain, as if every muscle in his body was torn.
Every breath was bloody, and his vision was blurred.
Darren, who was already very familiar with various injuries, instantly determined his condition.
—— Very disabled.
The muscles of the body were torn on a large scale, the internal organs were severely traumatized, at least 30 bones were broken, two teeth were broken, and the weakness caused by a large amount of blood loss...
This kind of tragic injury, if it were an ordinary person, he would have died countless times.
Even with Darren's current "indestructible" physique and inhuman terrifying recovery ability, this injury is definitely not to be underestimated... It will take at least five days to fully recover.
Huh...
Darren let out a long breath, supported his body with his hands with difficulty, and sat up from the bed.
But just such a simple action made him break out in a cold sweat and gasp for breath.
The hands supporting his body were trembling visibly, and Darren leaned his back against the bed with difficulty, gasping for breath.
A touch ofA sickly blush appeared on his pale face.
"But... where is this?"
Darren looked down at his chest, which was simply bandaged.
The room was luxurious, a high-end box with a private bathroom and a living room.
The air in the room was filled with the smell of high-end perfume.
Hot, exciting, mysterious... it gave people a sense of danger.
Coupled with the touch of the soft bed, the leather sofa in the living room and the display of various fine wines on the wine cabinet... Darren, a frequent guest of the hotel, could tell at a glance that it was the configuration of the most high-end luxury hotel.
"Why am I here?"
Darren frowned.
He vaguely remembered that after he exhausted his remaining physical strength to escape from Wano Country, his body, which was on the verge of collapse, soon could not support it.
After finally finding an island, he had not yet identified what kind of island it was, and he fainted from exhaustion from a height of thousands of meters, and fell headfirst into a blurry town.
Thinking about it now, this "special training" in Wano Country was indeed extremely thrilling.
Even if Darren did not succeed in breaking through at the last moment, he could not hold on and had to save enough energy for a "strategic retreat".
Facing a monster like Kaido, once he was entangled in a fierce battle due to insufficient physical strength, he might die there.
However, although the process was dangerous, the gains were undoubtedly huge.
After this battle, Darren finally succeeded in overcoming that shackle.
As long as he recovered successfully, no one in this vast sea could stop him anymore!
Just as Darren's thoughts were flying, the door of the luxury box suddenly opened.
A figure walked in gracefully.
Slightly curly golden hair, long legs and a wasp waist, a pair of charming phoenix eyes, and a well-cut white dress that highlighted her curves.
As she walked, her red high heels made a pleasant crisp sound on the ground.
The woman smiled charmingly at Darren, and the two dimples on her face were very attractive.
She sat leisurely on the sofa in front of Darren, and when she crossed her legs, she even deliberately let Darren see the scenery under her skirt.
Hmm, red.
‘She did it on purpose. ’
Darren quickly came to this conclusion, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
He recognized this woman.
“Nice to meet you, Mr. Darren, I have heard of you for a long time.”
The blonde woman hugged her chest lazily and smiled.
Darren also smiled and said:
“Excuse me, beautiful lady, if I am not unwell, I would be happy to kiss the back of your hand.”
