When Lovett heard about the aftermath of the incident in Shampoo again, it was already a few days later. According to the News, in order to protect his subordinates, the leader of the Revolutionary Army, Monkey D. Dorag, appeared in Shampoo, along with those who rushed to the scene.
Admiral Kizaru launched a fierce fight.
In the end, Long lost to Kizaru and escaped with serious injuries.
However, in order to protect the safety of "World Noble" Saint Charles, Kizaru had to give up the pursuit.
As soon as this news came out, the whole world was shocked!
Kidnapping a Celestial Dragon?
What kind of arrogant person would dare to do this?!
The nobles of the world, who would dispatch admirals even if they were disrespectful to the Celestial Dragons, were kidnapped?!
This incident set off huge waves in the sea, making the "Revolutionary Army" appear in the eyes of countless people, a force that has always been underestimated.
But the government will not be so foolish as to help them gain fame, so it secretly works hard to pour a lot of dirty water on the three words "revolutionary army" and publicize their madness and cruelty everywhere, making everyone in the sea feel in danger and become even more dissatisfied.
Kizaru let the opponent run away.
Faced with accusations of letting go, the Navy Headquarters remained silent, admitting failure in disguise.
Fortunately, they had meritorious service in protecting the Celestial Dragons, and the government also commended them.
"Since the last provocation the government was suppressed, now the collar is finally loosened, which is not a loss."
Throwing away the nonsense newspaper, Lovett shook his head in amusement.
Taking the blame for your boss is indeed the easiest way to regain trust.
"but……"
Dressrosa, King's Heights.
"Hey, I guess it took a lot of effort for you to block the news, right?"
Doflamingo sat on the throne, his eyes cold.
His intelligence network had already told him the truth of the matter. The government had the opportunity to kill the dragon, but for the safety of the Tianlong people, it agreed to exchange hostages and let the tiger return to the mountain.
"Unfortunately, this is not your true face!"
Doflamingo silently rubbed his temples, with a strong evil look on his brows.
What they protect is the word "Dragon Man"!
It’s the government authority represented behind it!
Rather than the real Celestial Dragon nobles.
If the time and place were changed, Doflamingo knew exactly what choice the Five Old Stars would make if it were not allowed to be seen by the franchise countries and no bad consequences would occur.
Nothing is more important than your own dominance!
Neither can the Celestial Dragons!
The dragon can survive if the time, place and people are favorable, these three things are indispensable.
"However, this also allowed the world to see the extent of the government's protection of the Tianlong people, and helped them re-establish their dignity, which to a certain extent made up for the impact of this incident."
Silently moving his fingers, Doflamingo chuckled and said, "It seems to be convenient for me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Diamanti walked into the hall and bowed not far away.
"Young Master, there is a call from Wulaoxing."
Click!
The smile suddenly faded, and Doflamingo turned back indifferently: "Why?"
This incident seems to have been solved properly, but there is one problem that cannot be explained...
That's how the revolutionary army knew that the Black Count was connected to the government?
Doflamingo is more inclined to believe that the Revolutionary Army planted spies within the government, but... apparently some people don't think so.
Why?!
There was doubt and murderous intent in his eyes.
How on earth did this blame fall on me?!
Although he is the most suspect, is he crazy enough to challenge the world government at this juncture?
Of course, without direct evidence, the Five Old Stars would not really do anything to him, but with the deeds he had done against Earl Black, he was the biggest suspect and the most impossible to erase.
The cadres of the Don Quixote family don't know what happened that day.
All I know is that from then on, everyone was confined to Dressrosa, and no one was allowed to leave without the Young Master's order.
But things in the world are often not so smooth.
Just when Wulaoxing thought that the matter was completely suppressed, a piece of gossip spread.
…
The Great Route, the City of Seven Waters.
Carrera Shipbuilding Company, Dock 4.
"Hey, did you hear that?"
The two pirates got together and waited for the boatmen of Carrera Company to help them repair the ship.
"What did you hear?"
"That incident in Chambord."
"Nonsense, how could you not have heard of such a big thing?"
"Then do you know why the revolutionary army kidnapped the Tianlong people?"
"this……"
The companion paused: "It was said that this year's world conference would discuss the blockade of the revolutionary army, so they were unwilling to give in and caused this commotion."
"Do you believe what the newspaper says?"
"if not?!"
"cut!"
The man glanced at him disdainfully and waved to him: "Come here, I'll tell you a secret. Don't tell anyone about it."
A few seconds later…
"What? The government caught the dragon?!!"
The incredible shouts attracted the attention of a large group of people in the dock. Sensing the sights coming from around them, the two of them were startled and quickly lowered their heads and walked away.
After they left, behind a pile of planks, a boatman with a long, square nose put down the wood on his shoulders and looked in the direction they left.
"It's not good. The news seems to be spreading more and more widely."
This is indeed the case.
The gossip that started with "I'll tell you a secret" centered on Shampoo Land and gradually spread to the surrounding areas... The Tianlong kidnapping incident in Shampoo Land was the biggest event of the year, and it was widely discussed.
.
In addition to being shocked by the boldness of the revolutionary army and the strength of its leader Long, the world paid more attention to how Saint Charlos was kidnapped.
It can only be said that the Tianlong people were a little too arrogant in the Chambord Islands. They went to participate in the black market auction where dragons and snakes were mixed, and they did not bring enough bodyguards. After the revolutionary army figured out the route, they were directly robbed from the auction house.
So the question arises, why did the revolutionary army kidnap Saint Charles?
The news propagated by the government is that it is to give them a little color, because this year's World Conference will decide to officially launch operations against the revolutionary army, but is that just that?
People tend to prefer personal statements to official statements.
Multiplied by the population base that pays attention to this matter, a statement is widely recognized.
[The government captured the dragon, so the revolutionary army kidnapped the Tianlong people in exchange for hostages.]
But this is contrary to the statement published by the government... The more they pour dirty water on the revolutionary army, the more terrifying and cruel the revolutionary army becomes, and the more unreasonable this move becomes.
For a time, the whole sea was filled with panic.
For the sake of the Tianlong people, does the government really not care whether ordinary people live or die?
Before the five old stars could recover from this confusing news, a photo completely confirmed the rumors.
It was a scene of Ryu with his hands in chains and the Black Earl of the Shichibukai sitting across from each other on the street, having a conversation while surrounded by marines and white suits.
Everyone knows why the Black Earl appeared there.
But the dragon appeared there, which was completely unexpected!
The discussion suddenly turned into naked doubts about the government. Countless people in the participating countries were filled with indignation and felt that the government was being too childish this time.
For the sake of one person, do you care about the lives and lives of millions of people?
It's not enough to support them with gold from heaven every year, now they have to bear the consequences?
Everything the Five Old Stars had done before completely backfired. While everyone feared the revolutionary army, they also hated the World Government that made this decision. It was just shooting themselves in the foot.
At the same time, pirates and ambitious people from all over the country also took action. Countless people and forces cooperated tacitly at this time, adding fuel to the fire behind the scenes, and greatly contributed to this turmoil.
In the year 1518 of the Haiyuan calendar, it started with a lively scene.
…
Uncharted Seas, Leviathan.
"Sir, we have found out clearly that there have been rebellions in five of the participating countries in the past three months. Excluding two with the intervention of the revolutionary army, the remaining three are completely spontaneous rebellions formed by ordinary people."
Ah Jin stood aside with a bow and read to him the information gathered in his hand.
At the same time, the reverence and awe in his eyes became deeper and deeper.
Because he knows that everything happening in the sea now is related to the young man in front of him. It is he who easily controls the world situation with a pair of invisible hands behind the scenes!
This is much more difficult than it is for Flamingo to do things by virtue of his Celestial Dragon origin.
But it is precisely because of the difficulties that he becomes even more unfathomable!
"Ordinary people? They sound as unreliable as ordinary office workers."
Lovett smiled and shook his head.
"In the final analysis, it's all about your cooperation."
Lovett knew exactly how many people he had arranged to spread the rumors, but judging from the speed of news spread and various unexpected incidents, he was definitely not the only one who took action.
He just pushed the door at the most appropriate time, and it was beyond his expectation that things would develop to the extent they did today.
"But in this way, the favor I owe to Long is paid off, but he owes me a lot..."
The harder the Five Old Stars hit the flamingo, the deeper the debt he owes to the dragon.
It's a pity that the words "Celestial Dragon" made this matter stop at a ban.
On the contrary, it was his own contribution that helped the revolutionary army gain fame.
In addition, regardless of whether they are responsible for it or not, as long as they can separate some of their power from the world government group, it will be of no harm to the revolutionary army.
"but……"
The butler hesitated for a moment and asked: "Master, why do you know that someone will really stand up and resist?"
Lovett would be in trouble if governments weren't struggling to cope with the wave of revolts around the world.
Because Wulaoxing knew that Lovett would never be able to get so many countries to stand up against him at the same time, so the bigger the noise, the safer he would be.
"This question... you shouldn't ask me."
After touching the red-eyed raven's head, Lovett grinned and stared blankly ahead.
"Do you think so, big mom, Tezoro, Gaji..."
As Long said, there are too many people in this world who covet the supreme authority.
No one with foresight would miss this opportunity to take a piece of flesh from the government.
