After watching Gawain enter the captain's room, Thiago gritted his teeth and clenched his fists heavily.
Pulling the whip out of his back, Tiago turned around and slowly walked towards the frightened slave traders.
Dauberman followed Gawain's trajectory towards the captain's cabin, and when he passed Tiago, he couldn't help but whisper persuasion.
"Although Gao Wensheng did not protect these guys, you should not make too much noise."
"I know!"
Thiago nodded in response and smiled coldly at the same time.
"Gao Wensheng is much crisper than you, Lieutenant General, I like his orders!
He is different from other nobles in the world, and I have begun to respect him!"
After finishing his words, Dauberman nodded and left, walking into the captain's cabin.
As for Thiago, he came to the nearest slave trader with a whip.
Putting the whip on the slave trader's neck, Tiago exerted force while giving instructions to the sailors around him.
"Send these damn guys below the deck to the dock for execution. Don't disturb Gao Wensheng."
"Yes, Lieutenant Colonel Thiago!"
The sailors suddenly became excited. They suppressed their cheers and blocked the mouths of all the slave traders.
In the morning's battle, they all lost some of their comrades who had been with them day and night.
Of course they are angry!
At the same time, in the captain's cabin, when Dauberman walked in, Gawain was standing at the window, looking at the sea outside the dock on the side of the ship.
Looking at Gawain's back, Dauberman swallowed. Although Gawain was smiling most of the time, he always felt that this man looked much scarier than other Celestial Dragons!
After suppressing his nervousness, Dauberman spoke softly.
"Gao Wensheng, the warship will set sail later, and that process will cause the deck to rise and fall slightly.
So, you might as well rest on my office chair for a while."
"That's fine."
Gawain nodded and sat down on the sofa calmly. At this moment, he realized that his legs were weak.
As a modern person, even though his experience as a diplomat has exposed him to small-scale wars and casualties, he is still not used to having corpses so close at hand.
Dauberman didn't know what Gawain was thinking. When he saw Gawain sitting down, he walked to his desk, bent down and took out drinks and snacks from the drawer.
Gawain didn't know the drinks, but he was very familiar with the snacks, including potato chips, shrimp crackers, crab legs, and takoyaki.
After delivering the snacks to Gawain, Dauberman brought another stack of newspapers.
"Gao Wensheng, please use some thin wine. There are newspapers from the past few days for you to read. If you have any other requests, please feel free to tell me."
"That's enough."
Gawain nodded, took the newspaper handed by Dauberman, and placed the newspaper on the table while Gawain continued.
"I don't have any special requests. I just need to rush to Marineford as soon as possible."
"Thank you for your tolerance and generosity, Gao Wensheng."
Dauberman breathed a sigh of relief, and then stood silently beside Gawain, motionless.
Gawain actually doesn't like this kind of atmosphere, but there's nothing he can do about it, they're not familiar with each other.
So Gawain also silently flipped through the newspaper.
These newspapers are World Economic News, and World Economic News is the only newspaper in the One Piece world.
That’s right, the only one!
After all, the pirate world is vast and the transportation is extremely inconvenient. Logically speaking, there are no conditions for selling newspapers in this world.
After all, even if newspapers are made, no one can find every ship and go to every island to deliver newspapers.
But World Economic News is different.
The president of this newspaper is called Morgans. He is a huge albatross wearing a suit and a top hat.
Just by looking at his appearance, it is impossible to tell that he is a person who ate the fruit of an animal bird and took the form of an albatross.
He is also a bird that ate the human fruit of the animal type, the phantom beast species, and the Jingwei form.
In short, he looks like a bird, and he can indeed control countless seagulls.
Under the leadership of Morgans, tens of millions of seagulls gathered at the door of the World Economic News newspaper office every day, waiting for reporters to hang newspapers for them to sell.
Then the seagulls would fly all over the sea, delivering the newspaper to every island and ship.
Even if you are just sitting on a sampan, you will definitely receive newspapers from Seagull, without exception.
Therefore, since the emergence of Morgans, the World Economic News has rapidly grown bigger and stronger and has become a necessity in people's lives.
At this moment, the World Economic News that Gawain read printed on the first page a person who was very familiar to Gawain.
The news headline that goes with this photo is:
"One year later, on the changes brought by the Fourth Emperor to the sea!"
Yes, the person in the photo is none other than red-haired Shanks.
Seeing this, Gawain did not continue reading the newspaper, but asked Dauberman casually.
"Mr. Lieutenant General, can you tell me a story you know about the red-haired Shanks?"
"sure."
Dauberman thought for a moment and said softly.
"Red-haired Shanks was famous in the New World a long time ago, but at that time he was not even a supernova, and he didn't seem to be a big deal.
Unexpectedly, he returned directly from the New World to the Grand Line, bravely broke through our blockade, robbed the World Government's transport ship, and then hid in the East China Sea for two full years.
Because of that incident, his bounty was raised to 800 million for the first time.
When he reappeared from the direction of Upside Down Mountain in the East China Sea, he did not wander around the world and the Grand Line, but quickly returned to the new world, and then challenged Kaido and Big Mom at the same time.
After several years of war, until a year ago.
The red-haired pirate group has torn off enough territory from Ten Thousand Kingdoms and Hundred Beasts. Ben Beckman, his deputy captain, once fought against Big Mom alone without losing.
After confirming the record of the Red-haired Pirates, Morgans used the title of Fourth Emperor against Red-haired Shanks for the first time in a newspaper about a year ago!"
"etc."
Gawain noticed something.
"You mean, red-haired Shanks became the Fourth Emperor a year ago, instead of becoming the only one of the Four Emperors?"
"That's right, Gao Wensheng, before this, the pirates had always only had three so-called emperors.
A long time ago, the three pirate kings were Roger, Whitebeard and Golden Lion.
After Roger became the Pirate King and was captured and executed by the hero Garp, the Golden Lion was also arrested for breaking into Marineford alone.
Since then, the Three Pirate Emperors have become Whitebeard, Kaido and Big Mom.
The three emperors of the pirates and the three generals of our navy have been in this confrontation for a long time.
It wasn’t until a year ago, when Red Hair confirmed his status and was promoted by Morgans, that Dahai had the concept of the Fourth Emperor.”
"Oh, it's only been a year since the red-haired became the Fourth Emperor?"
After listening to Dauberman's explanation, Gawain muttered thoughtfully.
"So, Dauberman, how many years is it now on the Hainian calendar?"
"Uh, Gao Wensheng, it's the year 1517 of the Haiyuan calendar."
"1517..., I know!"
Gawain nodded and then continued to read the contents of the newspaper.
Seeing that Gawain was no longer speaking, but was immersed in the newspaper, Dauberman fell silent again.
Not long after, the warship gradually began to rock.
Feeling the shaking, Dauberman asked Gawain softly.
"Gao Wensheng, the warship is ready to sail. I need to go to the helm to give the sailing order.
Please allow me to leave for a moment."
"Well, you can do whatever you want, just pretend I don't exist."
Gawain waved his hand without looking back, and Dauberman left immediately.
As soon as he left the captain's cabin, Dauberman quickly wiped his forehead. After wiping away the fine sweat, he looked at the closed captain's cabin with lingering fear.
"This one is really powerful!"
After sighing with emotion, Dauberman came to the helm of the ship and said to Thiago, who was holding a cigar in his mouth with a relieved smile after revenge on his face.
"Fortunately, you dealt with the slave traders quickly enough, allowing me to wait until I had the opportunity to sail the ship.
Otherwise, if I were left to stay in that cabin, I might not even be able to stand firmly!"
"How can it be."
Tiago laughed and waved his hand to start the boat. As soon as he dropped his hand, the loud sound of the whistle made Gawain in the captain's cabin jump.
After the whistle died down, Gawain started reading the newspaper again.
Thiago continued to speak to Dauberman.
"Stop joking, Dauberman, are you showing off to me that you can chat and laugh with Gao Wensheng, whom I have decided to respect?"
"It's not a joke, but Gao Wensheng gives people a very special feeling. When I face him, I feel more pressure than when I face the five old stars!"
"Aha, have you seen the Five Old Stars?"
"I have seen it. Three years ago, during the last world conference, I was responsible for guarding the members of the participating countries of the world government. It was then that I met the Five Old Stars."
Having said this, Dauberman reached into his windbreaker pocket and took out his phone bug.
He said while dialing.
"I won't talk to you anymore. I have to tell the Warring States Marshal as soon as possible that Gao Wensheng is going to Marineford.
By the way, after making the call, I still have to go back to the captain's cabin to entertain Gao Wensheng. You must control the course while I am away."
"Don't worry, I will try to drive the boat as smoothly as possible." Thiago replied.
