Foxy was a little surprised. He didn't expect Long to come to him in person.
It stands to reason that there is no communication between the two parties.
"Need something to drink?"
Foxy motioned to the dragon to sit down, and then asked.
“Coffee is just fine.”
Long sat on the chair and grinned at the sweetheart next to him.
"monarch."
Sweetie looked up at Foxy.
"It's the same!"
Then Sweetie left to get ready.
Sweetheart now serves as Foxy's secretary, taking care of government affairs, daily life, etc. Foxy is happy.
But Sweetheart is very miserable. She spends every night learning from various books how to be a perfect assistant and secretary. It is simply heartbreaking.
However, Sweetheart seemed to be too busy for just one secretary, so Foxy planned to find a few more.
Be a secretary when you have something to do, and be a secretary when you have nothing to do. This is the life Foxy longs for.
"The leader of the revolutionary army, who is unknown to his famous name, came to visit and was not well received."
Foxy leaned on the throne, crossed his legs and looked at the dragon.
"Your Excellency, the Utopian Empire recently wants to take back the twelve constellation islands, and Scorpio is in the hands of the revolutionary army."
Long took the coffee handed over by Tianxin, nodded his thanks, looked at Foxy and said.
"oh."
Foxy looked at Sweetie putting the coffee on the desk and said calmly.
This answer made Long a little embarrassed.
"The Scorpio Revolutionary Army can return it to the Utopia Empire unconditionally, but it is really impossible to get 5 billion Baileys, so..."
It can be said that Long's words gave Foxy a lot of face. The most important thing was to be there in person. At least Foxy felt the goodwill brought by Long.
"Mr. Long, if I remember correctly, I contributed 9 billion beli to the revolutionary army in the Chambord Islands."
Foxy took a sip of his coffee, and then looked at Long with a playful expression.
Long paused, returned to normal and put the coffee on the table. "The Revolutionary Army needs too much money now. Five billion beli cannot be obtained at once."
Long did not deny that the Revolutionary Army was behind the Shampoo Islands incident.
"Mr. Long returned Scorpio unconditionally. I will remember this friendship. As for the five billion Baileys, it was just a joke."
Foxy didn't want to quarrel with the dragon, and it would be a great honor for him to return the island in person.
Since the other party is so generous, Foxy will naturally not be foolish enough to push the envelope further. After all, the Revolutionary Army is not a small force.
"I hope that the Revolutionary Army will have the opportunity to cooperate with the Utopian Empire in the future, but I won't bother you this time."
Seeing Foxy agree, Long stood up and prepared to leave.
Long didn't say much, as if he simply came to return Scorpio Island.
No conditions were mentioned, even if it was cooperation, it was just mentioned casually.
You must know that returning the Scorpio Revolutionary Army will be a loss. Even if the dragon does not return Scorpio Foxy, there is nothing that can be done. The final result will be Utopia and the Revolutionary Army becoming enemies.
This was not what Long wanted to see, so he came in person.
On the one hand, releasing goodwill may lead to the possibility of mutual cooperation in the future.
Many friends lead to many paths, and Foxy thought so too.
Both parties were very considerate to each other, and it seemed that Long was at a disadvantage this time when he returned to the island, but I remembered Foxy’s words of friendship, which were also in response to Long’s kindness.
As for the five billion Baileys, it's a complete joke.
Only those who are weak will take out five billion beli. As for the same power and strength, they will never take out this extortionate five billion beli.
If the situation is such that no one can force Foxy to do so, he will still pay.
For example, Foxy bought several of the islands occupied by Whitebeard with Bailey.
Of course, Whitebeard is also very considerate.
Otherwise, Foxy's attempt to buy back the five islands with the two billion beli is simply a fantasy.
"Utopia is happy to cooperate with the revolutionary army. I'll give it to you sweetheart."
Long was pleased with Foxy's response.
As Sweetheart and Dragon disappeared at the entrance of the hall, Foxy looked thoughtful and smiled.
"I didn't expect that Scorpio would be in the hands of the revolutionary army. It would really give him face!"
Foxy continued to deal with government affairs. After more than ten minutes, Sweetheart walked in from outside with a strange face.
"monarch."
"Why does it take so long to send someone off?"
Foxy didn't even look up.
"Your Majesty, Lady Katarina has just received news that the King of Evil has been captured by the Elos Pirates."
"What did you say?"
Foxy looked up and thought he had heard wrong.
"Just now, Lady Katarina sent news that the King of Evil was captured by the Elos Pirates."
Sweetheart said it again.
"I think I heard about the Elos Pirates somewhere."
Foxy frowned. Could it be that the other party was some kind of big pirate group?
"Your Majesty, this is the information of the Elos Pirates."
Sweetie picked up a stack of information from her desk and handed it to Foxy.
"One of the top ten beauties in the pirate world, Princess Iros, with a bounty of 325 million, superhuman type and lucky fruit ability user."
"It seems that the evil king was defeated unjustly."
Foxy was very interested in seeing Elos' Devil Fruit ability.
He remembered that the lucky fruit was a subordinate of the Golden Emperor in the movie. Speaking of Golden Emperor Foxy, he almost forgot about this guy.
I don’t know if the Golden Emperor has eaten the Golden Fruit now. This is the ability to make a country richer than anyone else.
Nowadays, Utopia is in ruins, and the golden fruits must be grasped in our hands.
It seems that the Golden Fruit is in Doflamingo's hands. Regardless of whether the Golden Emperor eats the Golden Fruit or not, he needs to go to the Grand Line or the North Sea.
"What's going on with the intelligence department that Catalina has established now?"
"Monarch, it consumes too much money, and now we are in some financial difficulties."
Sweetie's pretty face curled up, Foxy gave Catalina a task some time ago, which was to establish a utopian intelligence agency, and she spent money every day like water.
"You inform Guyram and Donald Duck to go to Princess Island to bring back the Evil King. Also, what's going on with Shilok?"
"Previously, Lord Sirocco and the others came with news that the Weird Pirates agreed to return the Capricorn Island, but it will take ten days to return the five billion Baileys."
"Where's the Baron?"
"The forces of the Whitebeard Pirates are retreating. Aries, Taurus, Gemini, Cancer, Leo, Lord Baron, they are taking over."
"Okay, I get it."
Foxy nodded.
Three hours later, Foxy left some government affairs with Sweetie and arrived at East Port.
Utopia now has four ports, namely, east, west, north and south.
The ports in the Middle East are not in operation, and no one is allowed to approach or watch them, just because Tom and more than 200 shipwrights are working with scientists headed by Caesar to build sea and land trains.
When we arrived at Donggang Port, the scene was very busy and enthusiastic.
Research Center What are Caesar and Tom discussing.
It must be said that with the addition of Caesar, the sea train concept built by Tom is faster, more stable and more comfortable than the original one.
However, it is still just a concept. Every time he discusses it, Caesar will add various lethal weapons, including propellers. If the train is erected, it will be a rocket, which makes Tom helpless.
"To realize the high-speed rail that the monarch said, we must change the train's engine and fuel, as well as the track."
Tom longed for the things Foxy taught him, including trains and high-speed rail.
Now the sea trains he manufactures are not even comparable to trains, let alone the so-called high-speed rail.
More than 250 kilometers per hour, this is something Tom can't even imagine...
