What could be more important than killing "the world's most vicious criminal", Monkey D. Dragon?
The answer is, of course, the Celestial Dragons!!
A few hours later, Shampoo Islands, Area 61.
The navy soldiers stationed here looked horrified as they looked at the giant battleship that appeared in front of them.
Even through the dense mangrove jungle, the outline of the evil and hateful flesh and blood was still clearly visible. From a distance, countless people in Shampoo looked horrified and called out the name of the battleship.
"That's... the Black Earl's Leviathan! That man-eating monster battleship!"
"Sure enough, he has just become a Shichibukai, and there is no way he will not obey the government's initial summons."
The pirates hiding in the darkness had uneasiness in their eyes.
The appearance of the Black Earl is not good news.
The destruction of 100,000 Alabasta Kingdom troops made them understand that this guy could really kill the entire Chambord Islands.
At the same time, as the summoned party, the summoned Shichibukai are here, so the government agents must also be here.
Seeing this, they not only gritted their teeth secretly but also cursed angrily.
"Damn revolutionary army!"
Why do you have to kidnap the Celestial Dragons!
What should we do now?!
That's right, there is only one reason for the bear to dare to save the dragon from the owl... Just as Lovett and the dragon are taking action, Saint Charlos, a dragon man, is attacked and kidnapped by the revolutionary army in public, and his life or death is currently uncertain!
Even though the outside world was calm at this time, that was because the Five Old Stars immediately blocked the news... The kidnapping of Tianlong people was such an attack on the majesty of the government, and the Five Old Stars could not wait to use the Demon Slaying Order to kill everyone and silence them.
But the task is to rescue Saint Charles.
The pirates on Shampoo Island were in a state of panic at the moment. Not only did two of the King's Shichibukai arrive, but the navy also sent generals to arrive. Even mysterious government agents came to the island in an endless stream, causing the entire island to panic.
The area is in turmoil.
However, their worries are obviously unnecessary. The government knows Lovett's methods better than the pirates, so...
"No matter what happens, you are not allowed to do anything!"
Xiao said seriously, causing Kizaru and Xiong to turn their eyes at the same time.
Feeling the attention of all parties focused on him, Lovett shrugged and stretched out his fingers to take the red-eyed raven that flew back.
"Yes, yes, I understand... Sir Xiao, please don't treat me like a fool, okay?"
"The headquarters of Baroque News Agency is here, and that is my biggest source of income."
It is the largest source of income on the surface!
The corner of the owl's mouth twitched.
This was a small thing they tacitly agreed to, making Lovett's source of funding less obtrusive and hidden from others.
Not bothering to argue with him, Xiao Xiao turned around and looked at Kizaru.
"General Kizaru, how is the situation now?"
Hearing this, Kizaru, who was wearing a bright yellow and light yellow two-color striped suit, a coat of justice, and a pair of orange sunglasses, looked away, with a frown on his wretched old face, and his voice was slow: "Well, how should I put it, it's very troublesome.
"
He said troublesome words in a casual tone: "The prisoners occupied a three-story restaurant in area 24. The location of Charlos Saint can't be found from the outside. And the most troublesome thing is... they took them away from the auction house.
Got a few slave collars.”
"Slave collar?!"
Xiao suddenly took a breath and couldn't help clenching his fists: "Are these bastards crazy?!"
Things like slave collars don’t even have keys!!
"Slave collar..."
Lovett complained as he pictured in his mind the image of a Draco man wearing a bubble hood who was forced to wear a slave collar because he thought he was too great to breathe the same air as ordinary people.
"How much does the other party not trust your character?!"
Xiao: "..."
Kizaru: "..."
The revolutionary army's purpose of kidnapping the Tianlong people was obvious, to exchange hostages with them.
If both parties can reach a consensus, there will be no need for a killer weapon like the slave collar... When this thing was made, it was not considered to be dismantled, so once it is put on, even if the revolutionary army wants to dismantle it, they will not do it for a while.
indefinite.
Lovett's gaze deflected and glanced at the dense crowd of onlookers in Area 59 opposite.
Unless someone can exercise domineering to the level of Rayleigh, they can tear off the slave collar at the moment of explosion.
Just as the two of them were frowning, the major general stationed in Xiangbo District came over with a serious look.
"Report! General Kizaru, the other party has agreed to negotiate!"
"but……"
"but what?"
Xiao couldn't help but ask.
"But they specified that they wanted the Black Earl to come over and would not accept the government's negotiators."
Lovett: "..."
After silently glancing at Lovett, Xiao continued to ask: "What's the reason?"
Click!
The middle-aged major general clenched his fists and his face turned red.
"He said that we are all loyal lackeys of the government and cannot be trusted."
Saying these words in public, one can imagine how much pressure the middle-aged major general must bear while commanding on the front line!
Facing other people's pointing fingers, he wished he could kill the speaker on the spot.
"This is trying to divide us from within!"
Lovett raised the corners of his mouth: "You won't be fooled, right, Lord Xiao?"
Xiao Xiao did not answer.
The government and the Shichibukai have a relationship of mutual use. Where does the trust come from?
But this matter is not the point. The point is...
The Revolutionary Army seems to want to expose Lovett's existence and the deal between them and the government!
Naturally, such a simple trick could not be hidden from Owl's eyes. He thought for a long time and looked at Kizaru: "Is there no problem with the navy, Admiral Kizaru?"
"Of course I have no objection!"
Kizaru spread his hands: "The marshal told me before I came here that all matters will be decided by you. I am only responsible for taking action... Of course it is best not to take action."
This statement is not surprising.
Xiao Xiao didn't even tell the navy that what was taken away from them was "munitions". He directly summoned the Shichibukai to gather. To be precise, he summoned Lovett to show up. Sengoku naturally understood that the secret was not something they were qualified to inquire about.
of.
but……
Even if the Sengoku ordered Kizaru to investigate secretly, would this guy really work hard?
Seeing him standing there carelessly, pouting and twirling his beard with his fingers after finishing speaking, Lovett was deeply suspicious of this.
"In addition, Mr. Karp asked me to bring you a message."
Touching the stubble on his chin, Kizaru suddenly said.
Monkey D. Cap!
Lovett's heart froze.
As Dragon's biological father, Garp is undoubtedly the person who knows Dragon best.
"He said that Long was not afraid of death at all, and even thought it would be best if he died."
Seeing everyone looking over, Kizaru continued, suddenly his eyes narrowed, and his cold murderous intent flashed away: "Just be like Roger and cause us some trouble."
Hearing this, Xiao Xiao clenched his fists and looked at Lovett.
The latter became immediately apparent.
"Okay, I'll understand with that look in your eyes."
As long as the safety of the Celestial Dragons can be guaranteed, the World Government will not hesitate to release the dragons!
"Nobles of the world!"
With a silent sigh, Lovett followed the middle-aged major general and walked towards Area 24.
…
A tycoon among tycoons like Long, who is challenging a behemoth that brings together more than 170 countries around the world, will naturally not put his hopes in one basket.
The trap laid against him was just to verify the source of the weapons.
But that wasn't the only preparation he made to ensure his escape.
If he hadn't relied on the soul net to wait for four minutes until the owl arrived, there would be no need to use this back-up plan... But he did it, and the revolutionary army was ruthless enough to take action!
For many years, they have been operating on the edge of the World Government's sight to accumulate strength, so that the World Government could not even guess that even their core hinterland, the Shampoo Islands, and the back garden of the Draco people, had long been infiltrated by the power of the revolutionary army.
"The theme of the World Conference in 1518 has been decided. In view of the inevitable coming, let's just take this opportunity to make a big fuss and build the reputation of the revolutionary army in advance, killing two birds with one stone... no, three birds!"
Thinking of the time when the kidnapping occurred, Lovett became convinced.
Before taking action against him, the kidnapping was already on the agenda, and the exchange of hostages was the requirement that evolved later.
What a thoughtful careerist!
Be prepared quietly!
and……
Looking at Area 24 looming ahead, Lovett narrowed his eyes.
Maybe you can kill four birds with one stone!
Because of myself, I was suddenly involved in this turmoil!
