The tradition of world conferences has been around for eight hundred years, so naturally there is a temporary residence specially designed for the royal families who come to attend the conference.
The conference is held every four years, and its duration can range from one week to more than a month.
The longest time, because countries were wrangling, arguing, and arguing endlessly for their own interests on a certain issue, and they were unwilling to give in easily, more than a hundred kings spent more than four days in Mariejoia.
Yue. Fortunately, the communication technology of telephone bugs in this world is very advanced. As long as they are willing to spend money and equip themselves with large telephone bugs with enough radio signals to cross the ocean, the kings can handle domestic affairs from a long distance even if they are in Mariegioa. And that
The issue that the kings debated the next time was the establishment of the Shichibukai system under the king.
Pirates with legal permission to plunder, some of the franchised countries think it doesn't matter, but some of the franchised countries think it is a shame and a shame. The most important thing is that the pirates have an official status and certain legal immunity. This incident is simply a disaster! So at the beginning
We argued directly for half a year before finally reluctantly passing.
This world conference, held a year in advance, also has the tendency to fall into protracted disputes.
Because, recognizing the alliance between the Kingdom of Flowers, Dragon Palace and Amazon Lily at the World Conference is tantamount to recognizing the legal status of Nine Snakes. In fact, it acquiesces that Nine Snakes will join the World Government and become a part of the World Conference. But in this case, as a
As a member of a World Government member country, you should have the obligation to pay heavenly gold to the Celestial Dragons.
In response to this, the empress of Nine Snakes just laughed at the meeting.
Her smile is very beautiful. Although it is 100% sarcastic, everyone has to admit that her smile is very beautiful. It even made the entire world meeting stop for a minute because of her smile that was eclipsed by time. But no matter how beautiful it is,
Smile, if you Nine Snakes wants to join the world government, you have to pay heavenly gold!
In this regard, the empress of Nine Snakes once again dismissed it, "I am in alliance with the Kingdom of Flowers and the Dragon Palace. Who said that Nine Snakes will join the World Conference?"
This act of pretending to be confused was extremely shameless, but the kings at the meeting did not have the courage to fall out with her on the spot.
The five elder stars at the higher level have never shown up to reveal their attitude. The kings are not sure how to treat the empress whose identity and position are unclear. She is a pirate leader, but she can openly and openly fight with the Kingdom of Flowers.
The Queen and the King of Dragon Palace came to the Holy Land Marie Joa to attend the World Conference. They said that she was recognized by the World Government or the Navy to some extent. No one from the official side came forward to speak for her. In short, they just let her go in the world.
Fight freely with other kings at the meeting.
The royal family of Alabasta, King Neferutari, who had an important say in the World Conference, did not know what was wrong, and seemed to be inclined to support the Nine Snakes Empress.
The king of the Kingdom of Sikeal, Dalton of the Snow Medicine Kingdom, and even the King of Dressrosa...
Not to mention the two stakeholders, the Queen of the Flower Country and the King of the Dragon Palace. There are so many kings and some countries close to these kings, such as the Kingdom of Prodence, an ally of Dressrosa, who support intentionally or unintentionally.
It’s really impossible to come up with a final result in a short period of time.
During this time, the entire Holy Land of Mary Joa was surrounded by the World Conference. It was calm on the surface, but there was already an undercurrent.
Some kings who are close to the Tianlong people are firmly opposed to it. The bottom line is that the participating countries must pay heavenly gold, and there will be no exceptions.
Some kings have an ambiguous attitude and are waiting to see for the time being. After all, who is willing to pay such a large sum of money every year to be wasted by the Celestial Dragons? Isn’t it good to enjoy the money scraped from people in your own country?
Dalton, King Riku, Kobra and others tend to be happy to see the emergence of new alliances that are outside the rules of the World Conference, which is also a good thing for them.
What's more, in this world, many times, if you can make friends with a top strong person, the benefits far outweigh the disadvantages.
And there are a large group of such top powerhouses that Empress Nine Snakes can contact... Lynch and Nicole Robin alone are enough to make people dare not neglect them, let alone spread out based on the relationship between these two people.
Internet: Red-haired Shanks and Pluto Rayleigh are both friends with them; the soaring strength of Straw Hat Boy and others who are traveling with them cannot be ignored; Flamebeard Ace and other white-bearded remnants are not on good terms with Lynch.
generally……
If we continue to calculate further, the father of the Straw Hat Kid is the revolutionary Dorag, and he is also a big guy who makes people tremble; in the reward order updated a while ago, the full name of the "Golden Foot" Vinsmoke Shan was changed.
Treatment cannot be ignored...
Perhaps, this is also the reason why the World Government and the Navy did not act rashly against Empress Nine Snakes. The kings knew this very well. If the first domino is pushed, the subsequent chain reaction may be even worse than the top one a year ago.
War is even more terrifying... Regarding this, after getting the latest newspaper and seeing the huge headline on the front page, "Straw Hat kills Kaido of the Beasts and becomes the Pirate King of the new era, maybe it is not a big lie."
?!" The explosive title made the kings who were temporarily living in Mariejoia jump with their eyes.
In particular, in the front-page photo, I don’t know which news bird risked his life to take a close-up photo of Luffy. The snake-shaped pendant exposed around his neck has made countless royal families, world government officials, and navy
The officers gasped, slapped their foreheads, or slapped their thighs. Damn it, could this guy be from Nine Snakes Island?!
Lynch and Empress?
No, no, this kid's father is the revolutionary army Dorag...and his age doesn't match. The figure of a blond woman whose life and death is still unknown appears in the navy's mind, the former empress of Nine Snakes!
Good guys, we have been making trouble for a long time. Straw Hat Luffy, Lynch, Nico Robin, Empress Boya Hancock, the former Snake Princess, and even the revolutionary army Drago, these people are actually the island of Nine Snakes.
a family?!
"Luffy isn't bad!"
In the magnificent villa, Sanda and Mary read the latest newspaper delivered with a smile, "You actually killed Kaido of the Beasts by yourself? Haha, he must have asked Lynch not to interfere, otherwise Luffy would probably still
Before we arrived, Lynch had already taken care of Kaido."
The empress leaned on the sofa elegantly and casually, flicked her nails, and said calmly: "It's just Kaido."
It’s just Kaido!
Rose, Rebecca, Vivi, and the mermaid princess Shirahoshi, who seemed to be guest-starring, were secretly stunned. Even if you, the Empress, said these words, it would make people feel a little dizzy.
That's Kaido!
Ayu smiled and took a sip of tea, "If Luffy enters the fourth gear and uses Corrugated Rubber Man's full power, he has a good chance of winning even against Kaido. It's not surprising that he can defeat him."
Sangda poked Ayu with his elbow, lowered his head and snickered: "Of course you have a say in this, Ayu~"
Ayu's black dragon ability is similar to Kaido's Blue Dragon. At the end of the year of collective training, after Luffy fully mastered the fourth gear, the black dragon Ayu is no longer his opponent...
Ayu was unhappy and pulled Sangda's cheek.
A group of queens, empresses, and princesses were having tea parties, and crisp laughter could be heard from time to time. Guards stood guard and patrolled at the entrance of the villa and in the lobby. Although this was the holy land of Mariejoia, there would not be any bad guys or assassins, but on the surface
There is still work to be done, and to be disrespectful, what if another indifferent Tianlong shows up?
A few days before the World Conference, some unscrupulous Celestial Dragons showed up and tried to harass the Pirate Empress. Although it was a false alarm in the end, the Empress unexpectedly did not lose her temper, and even more rarely, the Celestial Dragons quickly gave up their greed.
Nian, I don’t know why even though I left, I still scare people.
Invisible air currents passed majestically between the guards with different expressions.
The element of Kerra turns into an invisible and colorless gas, and consciousness seems to be dispersed in every corner of the gas body, calmly observing the terrain and passing through every gap.
The Tianlong people are so hateful, but the empress sister actually held back?
Kerla was secretly surprised, and soon thought about it. She was right, the Empress sister was well-known for her power, and the first time she set foot on Mariejoia, she would probably be asked to wear sea-stone handcuffs...
Invisible and colorless gas flowed out from the gaps in the luxurious glazed windows. Kerla came to the room where the princesses chuckled, and she saw Empress Boya Hancock leaning on the sofa.
She was lowering her beautiful eyes and looking at a "bracelet" on her wrist.
Kerla recognized it, it was a half piece of sea tower stone handcuffs. The world government was probably afraid that the Empress would fall out, so they didn't have the nerve to put handcuffs on her. Anyway, as long as it could limit her combat effectiveness as an esper, sea tower stone handcuffs were still sea tower stone bracelets.
There is no difference. Half of the handcuffs can weaken the empress's resistance, so naturally it is the best.
"Otherwise, the Celestial Dragon who dared to harass the Empress' sister halfway would have been kicked to death by her on the street..." Kerla floated in the air of the tea party room, secretly thinking that the Empress in her impression was not a good-tempered one.
In addition to Brother Lynch, people also love Sister Robin.
Rose smiled and suggested: "We can't keep this stalemate forever. How about this? We also officially join the alliance?"
"Your country and the Empress sister are not in the same area at all, right?" Rebecca sat obediently next to Vivi. This princess of Alabasta, who was not much older than herself, but gave people a strong and reliable feeling, made Rebecca
Very close.
Weiwei smiled and said: "Can't the Jade Queen move the island? Just move Kraikana Island to the New World or the West Sea."
Ayu said: "Just call me Ayu."
"Master Weiwei, where is Alabasta?" Bai Xing clasped his hands and lowered his head happily, "If we all move together, we can play together like this often in the future, right?"
Weiwei was ashamed, "Is Alabasta too big?"
Ayu complained: "Krajana Island is not small, right?"
This kind of serious and serious atmosphere, joking and joking, made the girls laugh involuntarily. Sanda and Mary also joined the discussion. The princesses were very curious about the appearance of the world-famous women's country, and caught the two of them talking.
Tell nonsense jokes, or ask a soul question with a red face but twinkling eyes at the same time: If the country is full of girls, what will happen if they have children?
Then there was a burst of whispers and another burst of laughter.
The news of the death of the Celestial Dragon has not been spread... Hancock looked at the half-piece of sea tower stone handcuffs on his wrists, thinking about this problem. Her Medusa ability has long been integrated with her bloodline, and this ability has become her own.
Part of it, and she was no longer a Devil Fruit user, so the Sea Tower Stone handcuffs on her body were actually of no use at all.
When the Celestial Dragon jumped out halfway, Hancock didn't bother to say another word to such a stupid pig, and just stabbed him with a strand of snake hair.
Medusa's poison completely took over the Celestial Dragon man's nerves, and after directly ordering him to go home, he went to find the strongest slave in Pangu City and challenge him to a duel.
This way of death should be very unique. Hancock smiled disdainfully, suddenly his eyes narrowed, he looked away and shouted: "Who is it?"
Her long black hair moved automatically without wind. One of them turned into a slender black snake and raised its head, hissing and spitting out snake messages. A wisp of purple poisonous mist was ready to strike.
Sanda, Mary put her hand on her pet snake taking a nap on the carpet; Ayu looked in the direction pointed by Hancock's snake hair, and the hand folded on his leg quietly turned into a black-scaled dragon claw; the rest
The other princesses were a little surprised and uncertain. Vivi and Rose were more suspicious, while Bai Xing and Rebecca were more shocked.
"Don't do it, Sister Empress, it's me!"
A low-pitched female voice emerged from the air, and the invisible and colorless gas stirred up the breeze in the room, converging into Kerla's pretty and lovely entity.
"Is it you?" Hancock folded his arms, and a snake hair in his hair returned to normal and fell quietly.
Kella breathed a sigh of relief.
Ayu said in surprise: "Kerra, why are you...are you the only one, or are you?"
She made a gesture of looking outside. Ayu, who had also participated in the previous year's practice, naturally knew Kerla and knew her details. She was rescued by Brother Lynch and Sister Robin, and received the gas fruit given by Brother Lynch.
The girl is now one of the core cadres of the Revolutionary Army. The sudden appearance of such a person in the headquarters of the World Government makes people doubt whether the Revolutionary Army is going to start a full-scale war with the World Government?
Kerra shook his head and said: "Although I did not sneak in alone, the purpose of our operation is not to conflict with the World Government..."
Weiwei looked at the empress, at Ayu, and then at Kerla, "Then what are you doing..."
"Rescue an important companion." Kerra said firmly, "He must still be alive."
That bear-like guy? Hancock thought thoughtfully. If he remembers correctly, in the Chambord Islands after the Battle of the Summit, Lynch relayed the Big Bear's last words to Dorag.
"He is in Mariegio?" asked the Empress.
"Hmm..." Kerra nodded lowly, "According to the doctor's information, he became a slave of the Celestial Dragons."
PhD……
Hancock's heart moved. The doctor who could be heard from the core cadre of the Revolutionary Army was related to the bear. I am afraid that the only doctor who Lynch and Robin often mentioned was the doctor.
She called Kerla to the next room and said: "I'm afraid the news that a Celestial Dragon died after a duel with a slave in Pangu City recently has been suppressed. The person you are looking for should be that slave."
The order given by the gorgon was to let the Celestial Dragon find Marijoa's strongest slave for a duel. Since Kerra said that the big bear became the slave of the Celestial Dragon, who else could be the strongest besides him?
When Kerla heard this, she looked at Hancock blankly and asked cautiously: "Sister Empress, could this be... your doing?"
She looked down in astonishment at the half-piece of sea-floor stone handcuffs on the empress's left wrist. This shouldn't be the case!
"It has nothing to do with you." Hancock crossed his arms and looked cold.
"Anyway, thank you for the information." Kerla hesitated again and again and couldn't help but said, "This is Mariegio after all. If possible, the Empress Sister should try not to..."
If the commotion goes too far, no one can predict the consequences.
The empress glanced at her and said, "Did that doctor reveal anything to you?"
The atmosphere was a bit strange. Both women had an intuition. What the other wanted to mention was not Dr. Vegapunk, but the name of a person whose name was forbidden in the Holy Land, or even in any corner of the world.
Kerla sighed, scratched her head and said, "The doctor said...he doesn't know much about it, but he thinks he is a timid person."
A timid person? This time Hancock couldn't stand it any longer. He wondered if he and this girl from the Revolutionary Army were not on the airwaves at all, and they were not talking about the same thing at all?
Are you sure that the person who can project sea water avatars and confront Lynch in the air has something to do with the word "cowardly"?
Kerla said seriously: "So, don't do anything to irritate that person. The doctor said so. If you are misunderstood, the consequences are really unpredictable..."
Hancock narrowed his eyes, "So, is this why you are unwilling to officially start a war with the world's nobles?"
…
At the same time, in the hall of power, five people who stood at the top of the world's nobility gathered together to talk about things. On the coffee table where they sat around, there was a latest newspaper.
