Chapter 223 World Conference and Execution List (First update)
On this night, it was not only Higashinohara who was paying attention to what happened at the Sky Tree.
In fact, after the live broadcast of an outdoor anchor whose account had been banned for 999 years was exposed on the Water Pipe Network, the news that Adeline Lyon was assassinated in the Sky Tree by the Sixth Judgment finally began to ferment uncontrollably.
Countless eyes from all over the world, on this day, involuntarily cast here some shocked, confused, sneered, disdainful, or indifferent looks.
After all, it was not a low-level judge who died this time, but an [S-level judge] who was very high among the twelve judges of the Department of Judges.
You know, to be able to obtain an S-level evaluation, the eighth-level demigod level strength is already the starting standard.
The most important thing is to have other strengths and potentials, and to pass various complex and difficult assessments of the Adjudication Department. After all, ability level is not the only criterion for measuring a person's actual combat power.
In other words, even if the S-level adjudicator is only at the eighth level, he is almost invincible at the same level among the 8th levels.
For an existence of this level, even in the powerful Judgment Department, once there is attrition, the position will be vacant in a short period of time, and it will not be able to be replenished in time.
However, due to the twelve rulings of the Adjudication Division, the position has rarely been left vacant over the years.
In most cases, the transfer of positions and power is decided in advance, and it is difficult to have to rush to make up for a very high-ranking judge.
However, at present, there are three vacancies in the Adjudication Division at once, which is a unique situation at any time.
For a time, this suddenly caused all kinds of discussions and speculations, even one of the three presidents of the World Government's Celestial House of Lords, one of the three people at the pinnacle of power in the world, Flor.
Chairman Kim personally called the Adjudication Division later in the evening to inquire about the situation.
You must know that the world government is divided into the Celestial Upper House and the human Lower House. Most of the life-long members of the Celestial Upper House come from the Nine Families of Celestial Beings and some powerful Celestial Beings. The members of the human Lower House come from more than 300 allied countries.
of the elected elite.
There is no doubt that the power of the Heavenly Lords has always been superior to that of the lower houses elected from the major allied powers.
The seat of the House of Commons is like a bone that heaven and man hang in front of a dog, and it is a pity to throw it away if it is tasteless and is tied to one's hand.
But for the sake of fairness.
At least it's superficially fair.
Every three years, the heavenly and human upper and lower chambers will hold a world-class bicameral meeting in the magnificent "Red Hall" on the top floor of the World Parliament Building in Shangjing Administrative District.
Referred to as the "World Conference".
The meeting agenda is divided into two parts, one is [International Arbitration].
Generally, the major countries in the House of Commons bring certain controversial issues that cannot be satisfactorily resolved back to the table to discuss solutions.
Of course, whether it can be resolved in the end still depends on the strength behind the country proposing arbitration or whether it has the hidden leverage to make the other party that needs to be arbitrated accept it.
Another highlight is the [Bill of Rights] - every three years, the human lower house has the opportunity to submit various bill reforms, which are submitted to the upper house for review and review.
Since the previous session, behind every newly submitted bill is the redistribution of the interests of various major powers in a certain field. If the distribution is uneven, the upper and lower houses cannot reach an agreement and will fall into a state of "playing ping pong" until one of the houses
compromise.
And who will choose to compromise is the bargaining chip behind it.
The Adjudication Division is said to be the executive agency directly under the World Government, rather it is the Heavenly Lords directly under the World Government, and this "World Conference" was restarted in June this year.
If there are a few more dazzling "gaps" on the sharp knife of the Adjudication Division, then for the Heavenly House of Lords, it will be like throwing away a few chips at the negotiation table.
Perhaps this is why the black building in Kamikyoto City District received a call from the Upper House today.
"Hmm, so. Did you escape?"
In the conference room where the needle could be heard, the first adjudicator and the leader of the adjudication department, Gru Wiseman, was sitting at the head of the conference table. He closed his eyes in great tranquility and looked calm.
On this round table, close to the old man's left and right hands, sat two faces half-hidden in the darkness. They were the only two [SSS-level adjudicators] in the entire adjudication department.
The head of the intelligence department standing next to the conference table lowered his gaze, not daring to look at the old man in front of him at all. He just nodded and said cautiously:
"Yes, the copper-green giant who killed the Sixth Judge did not join forces with the pirates in the West Sea, and simply chose to escape during the confrontation."
Hearing the words "Pirates of the Western Sea", Gru Wiseman, who was sitting at the head of the conference table, raised his eyelids and inexplicably thought of the adult who called him in the evening.
One of the three chief members of the Heavenly House of Lords, Flor Jin, was born in the Tianshi clan of the nine great families of Heavenly Beings. If I remember correctly, the child who betrayed his family and went to the sea came from their family.
No wonder only that adult among the three major congressmen expressed his stance. It seems that his family still has some protection for the child who even gave up his last name. It is really a deep-rooted family mentality.
The old man thought about this silently in his heart, his face remained silent.
The man sitting next to the old man, half of his face hidden in the darkness, suddenly said with a half-smile, "It seems that the big guy is still a bit smart and knows who can and cannot be provoked. His physical strength may be comparable to Ai's."
Dai Lin competed, but she couldn't stop Crow's sword."
As soon as he finished speaking, the man on the other side of the conference room leaned back and hid his entire face into the darkness and said with a smile:
"Are you intelligent? Then you shouldn't be a strange demon?"
According to the existing records of the Judgment Department, strange demons cannot pass through the border gate in a physical form. Once they pass through the border gate in the form of an ability body, they will soon be left with only instincts, and it is impossible to kill the Sixth Judgment.
Just like the giant who chose to shrink in front of the fifth adjudicator.
In this way, assess the situation and retreat when faced with difficulties.
The old man sitting at the head also had a thoughtful look on his face. He knew that such a strange demon could not exist, at least not on the third level of the green border gate.
The head of the Intelligence Bureau of the Judgment Department gave the old man a respectful look and continued, "But based on the analysis of video intelligence collected from multiple angles at the scene, the copper-green giant did appear out of thin air after the boundary gate of the Sky Tree was opened. Basically,
It is certain that it came from the side of the [Border] Gate."
At this time, someone suddenly said in a leisurely tone, "Not all those who came from the other side of the [Border] Gate today are strange monsters."
The head of the Intelligence Bureau of the Judgment Department nodded, "Yes, some members of the 'Hell Investigation Team' also passed through the border gate at that time. If the possibility of strange demons is ruled out, then we have every reason to suspect that the other party may be."
One of the members of the Hell Investigation Team'."
"Where are the people from the investigation team?"
"Unfortunately, all the survivors disappeared after returning through the border gate."
"All missing? If I remember correctly, there should be some of our people inside."
"Yes, but our people did not become survivors. Those who survived were all human ability users hired from the outside."
At this point, the head of the Intelligence Agency paused, then carefully considered his words before continuing, "In the original plan, these humans were 'not supposed to come back,' so they didn't leave any identity clues when they were hired.
.It is difficult for us to determine their true identities now, and we cannot even determine who stayed behind the door and who came back alive."
After hearing the words of the head of the Intelligence Bureau, the conference room suddenly became quiet again.
After a while, the old man who had been silent at the head of the conference table gently opened his closed eyes, and said slowly and calmly, "Ke Luojian said during the report tonight that he would solve all follow-up issues."
Do you think I should give him another chance?"
"Although Crow Jian is taciturn, he never lies." Someone said.
"Honesty is a very important quality."
The old man said softly, "Okay then, let's give him another chance. The deadline is before the next blue border door opens. No matter what happens then. Everyone here, someone needs to go behind the door for me."
world."
After the old man finished speaking, the dark conference room suddenly fell into silence again.
The world behind the door?
At the same time, in the country of Wano, the ruling envoy of New Tokyo was stationed.
In the dungeon on the third floor underground, two guards from the Adjudication Department were whispering.
"If you feed that woman to death, the 'toys' we keep in our custody will be useless, right?"
"Nonsense, who else could be so perverted besides that woman?"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, speaking of which, there seems to be a beauty among those 'toys'."
"You're talking about the girl whose eyes were gouged out, right?"
"I didn't expect you to be thinking about her too?"
The two guards looked at each other and immediately burst into obscene laughter.
"I feel ashamed to say it, brother, I have never experienced an exotic custom in my whole life."
"How about I go first and then you?"
"Get out! Why should you go first?"
"."
Unexpectedly, just as they were arguing, a burst of footsteps suddenly came from the corridor of the dungeon.
The two of them turned their heads and looked at each other. The moment they saw each other's faces clearly, they were so silent that their legs trembled.
I saw a man with sharp eyebrows like a falcon and three knives hanging from his waist walking down the stairs. His eyes passed by the two guards and landed on the girl in the dungeon who was huddled in the corner with her eyes covered with black cloth.
His impression of him only remained when he first met him, his clear and flawless eyes that were as bright as stars.
But now everything is no longer the same.
Vivian?
The Fifth Judgment made Crow Jian chew the name in his mouth, and then turned to the people next to him and said, "It's them, you will make a list and publish it later, and this girl's name should be at the first place."
