Chapter 721 Incident in the Kingdom of Frevans! (5,000 words long chapter)
July 1st is an ordinary day in Haixing.
It’s just because the ‘World Government King’s Conference’ will be held on September 15th.
The sea has become very lively in the past few months.
Many king ships with seats in the 'World Conference' in the four seas, escorted by navy warships, continued to pour into the 'first half of the Great Route' through 'Upside Down Mountain'.
but.
After they successfully rush down the "Upside Down Mountain", they will still be reviewed by the "Navy G-0 Branch".
As a result, this main port, which was once known as the "terrible three-masted sailing ship", is now anchored with various types of ships, large and small.
Some of them are royal ships, some are merchant ships filled with cargo, some are civilian cruise ships owned by the 'Flamingo Company', and some are adventure groups formed by some of the 'Top 100'.
These 'hundred strong men' who did not want to be hired by royal families, nobles, chambers of commerce, and companies directly relied on their own strength and reputation to recruit a group of people and started a job similar to that of 'bounty hunters'.
Surrender pirates, fight bandits, search for treasures, escort goods, serve as bodyguards, etc.
Anyway, as long as it's not illegal, they will accept it.
As for illegal things, it depends on the size of the benefit before deciding whether to do it secretly
However, although the number of these ships was large and the identities of the personnel on them were mixed, under the coordination and maintenance of the navy, they were arranged in four long lines in an orderly manner.
At first glance, it feels like the sails are like clouds and the boats are thousands of miles away.
no way.
After various live broadcasts in the past few years, most of the Starfish people have thoroughly seen the terrifying combat power and military power possessed by the World Government.
Even those aliens who gathered the power of the entire world could not resist the iron hoof of the world government.
What the heck are these people?
This is also the real reason why the World Government has repeatedly 'touched' the interests of royal families and nobles in various countries in the past few years, but no fool has ever stood up to fight against it.
There is no hope for rebellion or anything like that, so I can only endure it
"Oh-oh-oh-"
Just as the crew members of each ship were chatting and bragging to each other while waiting in boring queues, a burst of familiar bird calls came from overhead.
"Newsbird?"
"Look! The news bird is here!"
A young aristocrat with relatively luxurious and brightly colored clothing saw the people on the boat around him shouting and yelling, so they began to prepare coins, and proudly took out a telephone bug from his arms.
"Humph, I am already accustomed to reading the news directly on my video phone. Let's forget about this newspaper. The content above cannot be called news at all."
After speaking, directly control the phone bug to project a virtual light screen in mid-air, and then tune to the official channel dedicated to the 'World News' program.
This attracted the attention of many people.
After all, the price of the 'video phone bug' is indeed much higher than that of an ordinary phone bug that can only make calls.
In the past, when they watched various live broadcasts, they had to go to the designated square or park in the "Government Compound" because there were large-size video telephone bugs that were free for the public to watch.
really.
The latest official statement has been posted on the 'World News' program channel.
[Notice regarding the concealment of the genetic toxins of platinum-lead minerals by the Royal Family of the Kingdom of Freifans in the North Sea]
(Recent research by two major departments, the School of Medicine and the Institute of Biochemistry, found that the platinum-lead minerals mainly produced in the Kingdom of Frevans in the north, whether they inhale the dust generated during mining or touch the products manufactured after processing, will
Toxins slowly accumulate in the human body, forming symptoms similar to heavy metal poisoning.)
(After the platinum-lead toxin accumulates to a certain extent in the human body, it will form large areas of white spots on the body surface, and at the same time, it will cause damage to the hematopoietic system, digestive system, nervous system, and cardiovascular system)
(At the same time, platinum-lead toxins can be passed on to the next generation of children through blood factors, causing serious consequences of shortening the life span of the offspring of those infected.)
(However, the general public is advised to note that platinum-lead toxin is not contagious, so there is no need to panic. If you feel unwell, please go to the nearest world hospital for examination.)
(In view of the egregious criminal behavior of the Royal Family of the Kingdom of Freifans in the North Sea, the World Government decided to ban the qualifications of the royal family and the nobility, and strictly ordered the police to immediately launch arrest measures and send them to the Judiciary Island for trial by the Supreme Court)
(In order to facilitate the treatment and management of the people of Frevanth Kingdom, the World Government decided to temporarily block the entry and exit of people and send a medical team in)
As more and more people see this notice.
Unknowingly, in the originally noisy environment, the only sound left was the sound of the ship's hull being continuously beaten by the waves.
Among them, this young aristocratic man who had just taken out the video phone to show off with a proud face turned pale and looked down at the white ring on his right hand and the white necklace hanging around his neck.
"Ahhhhh!"
The next second, he screamed in terror, took off the necklace with all his strength, and threw it out of the boat.
Then he quickly tried to take off the ring on his finger, but found that he seemed to have gained some weight recently, so no matter how hard he tried, it didn't loosen at all.
"Damn it, damn it, come out!"
The young man was sweating profusely, fearing that if he wore the ring for one second longer, he would suffer from a serious disease that would be passed on to his children.
at the same time.
The royal family or nobles on other ships more or less had some jewelry made of platinum and lead, and even tableware, and they were anxiously ordering their servants to throw these things into the sea.
At the same time, he kept yelling and cursing the entire family and ancestors of the Freifans royal family.
And this kind of scene is happening in many kingdoms in Starfish. You know, the Kingdom of Frevans has been selling platinum lead for more than a hundred years.
Almost all nobles, wealthy businessmen, and even officials of the World Government have large amounts of platinum and lead items.
For a while.
There is a noisy feeling like "the world is in chaos" everywhere in Haixing.
North Sea.
In the royal palace of the Kingdom of Frevans, which is the core of the entire incident.
The current king slumped on the white throne with despair on his face without saying a word, while the queen was holding his legs and bursting into tears, her face turned pale.
The two of them had been sitting in this too-white hall all night.
But he had no intention of packing up his treasure and taking people out of the country.
Because just late last night, several men in black claiming to be CIPHER POL-No. 4 came to their door and informed the king and queen in advance of the World Government's decision to reveal the truth about platinum lead disease and hold them accountable.
They were stunned on the spot.
It's just that the two people were confused for different reasons.
The queen who married from another kingdom didn't know anything about platinum-lead disease, so she was shocked that platinum-lead could poison people.
But I immediately remembered the regulations prohibiting the presence of platinum and lead items in the palace.
This made her feel bad.
The king, who has passed down the truth about platinum lead disease from generation to generation, cannot understand why the World Government would do this. Haven't they been cooperating on this matter for hundreds of years?
How much money have the Freifans royal family paid to the World Government in the past by selling platinum and lead? This does not include the heavenly gold they have paid every year!
This made the king extremely angry at that time.
According to family history, more than a hundred years ago, when the World Government's investigation team discovered the problem of platinum and lead, their ancestors thought that it would definitely become a banned mineral, so they thought of stopping mining.
Unexpectedly, the investigation team just returned silently, and soon received an order from the World Government to continue mining, but not to reveal the truth.
So the blame for platinum-lead disease.
In the eyes of this king, the world government is the principal culprit, and their royal family can only be regarded as accessories!
But now the world government is ready to put the blame on their heads and wipe themselves out?
How shameless!
But those men in black just listened silently to his angrily cursing for several minutes, and then when he was out of breath, they said expressionlessly that he would give himself two choices.
First, their assassins are outside. They will massacre all the Freifans royal family tonight. They will claim to the outside world that they committed suicide out of fear of crime, and then they will take the blame.
Second, he and the queen actively cooperated with the World Government to accept trial and confessed in public.
Then the world government can let go of their children and an adult royal family, that is, the king's younger brother, two princes, and three princesses, and promise to give them relatively wealthy living conditions.
After hearing this, the king and queen were dumbfounded.
Do you call this choice?
Yes.
This is not a choice. They can only accept the facts with a grim face and use their own lives to fight for the survival of their children.
As for whether you believe in world government or not.
Again.
Are there any options?
They can only pray that the world government will keep its promise and treat their children well. Besides, how much money have the Freifans royal family earned from the world governments in the past hundred years?
Considering all this money, I don't think the world government will do too much.
And that night, some nobles and military officers in this country who knew more or less the truth about the history of platinum-lead disease died tragically in their homes under the cover of night.
Perhaps some of them are unjust.
But CIPHER POL chose to kill the wrong ones rather than let them go. As long as there are suspicions, they will be eliminated. This is also an order from above.
Within the city.
This rich kingdom is full of white houses, white bridges, white fountains, white sculptures, and even white roads.
At this moment, an atmosphere of panic began to spread.
Originally, the men and women here had almost the same indifferent smiles on their faces, and their actions and raises of hands vividly displayed what it means to be a gentleman and a lady.
He is more aristocratic than the nobles of many kingdoms.
However, now, they have thrown away all the platinum and lead jewelry that they were proud of before. With ferocious faces, they urged the servants to carry their treasures onto the carriage, and then fled out of the city desperately.
"Brother, is this what they are doing?"
In front of the iron gate of a pure white hospital, a young girl with brown hair looked doubtfully at the fleet of cars rushing along the street and the people walking around in a panic.
"Lami, don't go out, it's dangerous!"
The little boy wearing a white hat and a yellow suit nervously grabbed the girl's arm and pulled her back into the yard.
"Well done, Luo, keep an eye on your sister. Something unbelievably terrible is happening in this country right now. You must not go out!"
At this time, a man wearing a white coat and glasses quickly ran over with a solemn expression. While speaking, he quickly closed the two large iron doors and locked them directly.
Behind him, another woman wearing a white coat came with the same hair color as the girl, but with braids.
"Mother!"
Little Lamy ran over and hugged his right leg, raising his head with some fear: "The uncles and aunts outside have become so strange. What's wrong with them?"
"It's okay, it's okay"
The woman knelt down and gently held him in her arms, her eyes full of worry.
They are the most famous doctor couple in the country's largest hospital, so they naturally saw the world government's external statement on platinum lead disease at the first time.
Although symptoms of platinum-lead disease have not yet appeared on their bodies, they know very well that it will only happen sooner or later.
Over the years, many patients with vitiligo have been treated in the hospital, but so far, there has not been a single case of successful cure, so it has always been regarded as an incurable terminal disease.
In the past, some deans and doctors were aware of the problems with platinum and lead.
But every time I submitted a report to the higher authorities, the results always came to nothing. After a while, I was transferred out of the hospital for various reasons and never came back.
This has led to many smart deans and physicians choosing to remain silent.
Although I don’t know why the royal family turned a blind eye to the platinum-lead disease, or even deliberately concealed it, but if you shut up and you can live in peace, so be it.
The man walked over and hugged Luo, who was only six years old but could still pretend to be calm, and then looked at his wife to comfort her.
"Don't worry. Didn't the official statement say that a team from the medical school will be sent over? I think they will have a solution. You must know that the current dean of the medical school is the Gureva doctor from the Drum Kingdom!"
But that said, he didn't have much hope in his heart.
Because I am a very good doctor myself, I know very well that with the current medical level of Haixing, there is simply no cure for platinum and lead poisoning, a heavy metal that can affect human genetic factors.
the other side.
Several traffic arteries from the Kingdom of Freifans to surrounding countries were already crowded with carriages and people, and the whole atmosphere was very tense and noisy.
"Get out of the way, let us out!"
"That's right, who are you? Get out of here, I want to get out of here!"
"Please, please, let our family go. How about I give you one million Baileys?"
But no matter how these people yelled and cursed, or even begged for mercy, those police officers wearing green uniforms that looked extremely capable, strict, and detailed with waisted waists.
They all looked at them expressionlessly, showing no intention of opening the isolation barrier for them.
"Hey, Tanjiro, isn't this a bit bad? What if they rush out later? Do we have to take action? Do we have to take action? But how can we take action? We can't use the knife, right? They are
Common people."
Zenitsu Kagatsuma, who is already eighteen years old, has recently been transferred from Midori to the Public Security Department and has become a junior third-level police officer.
Looking at the ferocious, angry, or crying crowd in front of him, he suddenly showed a fearful expression, hid behind Tanjiro and started talking incoherently.
"Idiot Zenitsu, we just need to carry out the task, why are we thinking so much?"
Inosuke Kihira, who still wore a wild boar hood on his head, but was no longer bare-chested and was wearing a police uniform. Seeing his cowardly appearance, Inosuke scolded him in displeasure.
My wife Zenitsu shouted: "But the mission requirement is to arrest rioters without permission, and you are allowed to use force to arrest them. Can you really use the knife on them? They are not ghosts, they are human beings!"
"Tch, you should go back to Wano Island and sleep." Inosuke Kubihira turned his head disdainfully.
Tanjiro, who was beside them, also didn't know what to do. He just looked at the crowd on the other side of the barrier with pity.
"The reason for not letting them out is to help them treat the platinum and lead toxins in their bodies. If someone does break out later, we will try not to hurt them and just knock them unconscious."
"Because they are just scared now."
On the other side, in front of the extremely luxurious Freifans Palace.
With a muffled sound of "pop", the soldiers of the King's Army guarding the surroundings felt that a tall and burly figure appeared in the open space in the blink of an eye.
This man is nearly seven meters tall and has an extremely broad and muscular upper body.
On his head is a trapezoid-shaped white hat with brown spots on its surface and a frameless white eye.
Wearing a black and green police officer uniform and a dark green trench coat that undulated in the air waves, the whole person had an indescribable and strong sense of oppression.
"I am the Director of the Public Security Department of the World Government's Police Department, Bartholomew Xiong. This is my police officer ID."
He first took out a small black ID from his right breast pocket, opened it, and showed it to the commander of the king's army in front of him who had not yet reacted.
After making sure that the other party's eyes saw the contents of the document, he took it back, took out another document, and said: "This time we are here to arrest the king and queen of the Kingdom of Freifans. This is an arrest warrant. Please get out of the way.
"
"We need to ask for permission first."
The commander of the king's army tightened his grip on the hilt of the sword at his waist and said with a frown.
"No need, the arrest warrant is here. No one is allowed to obstruct law enforcement, otherwise he will be charged with obstructing official business. I give you one last warning, please get out of the way."
Bartholomew Bear said calmly, but his eyes did not look at these dwarves, but kept staring at the two breaths in the hall.
When he learned that the Freifans royal family had concealed the 'truth' about the platinum-lead disease for hundreds of years for their own selfish purposes, and had killed countless people, uncontrollable anger surged in his heart.
This is why he decided to come over in person.
"No, I must report to the king first and get permission before I can let you in!"
The commander of the king's army refused coldly, and even drew out the long knife from his waist and pointed the blade at it: "Please wait here for a while."
"In this case, the crime of obstructing official business is established. Someone will pick you up from the Judiciary Island."
As soon as he finished speaking, Bartholomew Bear took action and slapped the opponent with incredibly fast hand speed, causing his entire body to disappear instantly.
This scene frightened the other soldiers of the King's Army, who could only watch in horror as the bear walked up the steps step by step.
Somewhere by the sea.
A World Government ship with a five-circle cross flag is moored on the shore.
This put a smile on the face of Duke Kurtz, who brought his brother's two sons and three daughters.
"As expected of a world government, it keeps its promise!"
This brother of King Freifans thought that the ship was coming to pick him up and others.
He looked excitedly at the few men in black who escorted him here and praised him repeatedly.
"Please tell the adults of the World Government that we only want Xiao Fu for a lifetime and will never appear in front of the world again. Please rest assured!"
But just as he finished speaking, he saw one of the men in black with long pink hair and a handsome face shaking his head and smiling.
"That's no need."
"Um?"
Duke Kurtz looked at the other person in confusion, but was horrified to see that the man's right arm was turning into purple-white gas, and then it was spraying towards him and others.
"Because adults have their own way to completely reassure themselves."
next moment.
In broad daylight, screams could be heard one after another, but they were forcibly covered up by the sound of the waves.
