Pirate: I'm just slacking off, do you really think I'm a noob?

The sailors dropped the heavy anchor, secured the boat, and then set up the wooden planks for descending.

"Captain Raleigh, we have arrived at Chanialal Island."

The messenger shouted softly outside the door.

"Hmm~ so fast?"

Raleigh only remembered that after he finished lunch at noon, he went back to the office and took a nap. How come it was suddenly afternoon?

(Sleeping during work hours is worth 400)

Although Rowley likes to slack off, he always feels that it is a waste of time.

I could have spent the afternoon deepening my relationship with Gion, but my habit made me fall asleep.

"Oh, I need to change my habit of sleeping during the day."

Anyway, picking up girls at work is just slacking off.

Raleigh thought happily in his heart, and reached out to put on the navy cloak on the hanger.

Pushing open the office door, Raleigh was a little surprised to see Alice at the port.

I didn't expect that when Rowley came to Chanial Island, Alice would actually come to greet him. Anyway, if it was Rowley, he would definitely let his men wait here.

Raleigh walked down from the border board, showing Gion and the navy soldiers behind him.

As soon as he stepped onto the road to the port, Gion showed a surprised expression.

'Rawley, this place doesn't seem the same at all as the last time we were here.'

Gion said in surprise.

The last time they came was because the mafia on Chanial Island was too rampant and the crime rate was high, so after Raleigh took office, he came here to deal with the mafia issues.

At that time, Chanial Island could be said to be a prosperous yet chaotic mafia paradise.

The port was littered with dilapidated buildings showing signs of fighting, as well as garbage and even corpses everywhere.

But now it is completely different. Although the environment is not as good as that of the North Sea Naval Base, Nikkei looks clean and tidy.

The crowded and disorderly stalls on both sides of the road extending from the port have now been numbered and are open for business.

The garbage that was originally everywhere was also cleaned up.

"Hiss, what the hell is this?"

Raleigh also didn't quite understand what was going on here.

Lord Raleigh, you are finally here. Your loyal servant, Alice of the Salisbury family, awaits your arrival.

Alice walked up respectfully and bowed deeply to Raleigh.

Raleigh was a little overwhelmed by Alice's words and asked quickly!

"Who told you to talk like that?"

Rowley stretched out his finger and flicked Alice's head hard.

"It hurts, Master Raleigh."

Alice covered her little head and squatted on the ground sulking. After Rowley arranged the naval soldiers' shifts, he let them leave and relax freely in the town for a night.

The sky gradually darkened, and the lights on the roadside lit up one by one.

Alice followed behind Raleigh, looking like a bullied little wife.

Gion looked at Alice's expression and couldn't help but reach out and pinch Alice's face.

This made Alice, who was already unhappy, even more depressed.

Sister Gion, you are just like Lord Raleigh, you only know how to bully children.

Alice complained to Gion, and Gion pretended to turn his face away so as not to look at Alice's resentful expression.

"Alice, why has Chanialal Island changed so much? How long has it been?

Raleigh suddenly spoke up, interrupting the interaction between Gion and Alice.

Alice puffed out her chest with pride when she heard Rowley's question.

All this is thanks to Lord Raleigh!"

My contribution? How come I don’t know it myself? "

Raleigh was very puzzled. How could he not know what the changes on the island had to do with him?

Seeing Rory's puzzled expression, Alice could only remind him again:

"Lord Raleigh, do you remember that you wiped out the Masefield family a few months ago? After that incident, the only Mafia family left on the island was our Salisbury family."

Raleigh nodded affirmatively, of course he remembered it!

After all, it has only been a few months and I will never forget it.

Moreover, it was precisely because the Salisbury family was his first younger brother force in the North Sea that Rowley personally stepped in to solve the Salisbury family's troubles.

"That's true, but I don't remember giving such an order."

Raleigh pursed his lips, looking forward to seeing what Alice would say next.

Alice looked at Raleigh with adoration and said;

After you left Chanial Island, Uncle Rex told me that if I wanted to expand the Salisbury family, I must keep up with the navy and hold on to your thighs.

It was you who saved the Salisbury family from disaster and wiped out all the mafia families on Chanialal Island. After that, we, the Salisbury family, had complete control of the island."

Alice became more and more excited as she spoke, and she wanted to jump up and blow Rory a kiss.

Of course, she could only think about it, after all, Gion was still nearby.

Raleigh caught the key words in Alice's words and basically understood them. Although Gion also heard them, he was still a little confused.

Helpless, Raleigh could only explain to Gion. He pointed to a mafia family wearing black suits standing in the night market and said:

Before our operation, countless mafia families on the island were fighting for territory and bloodshed broke out every day, but after the operation, only the Salisbury family remained on the island. "

Without the hindrance of enemies, the Salisbury family took control of the entire island. Without conflicts between mafia groups, civilians had time to recuperate. "

Because if a mafia family wants to develop better, it must maintain its basic base and execute normally. Now it seems that the Salisbury family is doing very well. "

In fact, Chanial Island is a place where one can get rich, both in terms of shipping routes and resources.

It’s a pity that there were too many mafias who wanted to make money before.

Now that only the Salisbury family is left, without the suppression of the Mafia, the economy of Chanial Island has doubled in just a few months.

"Well, good job, Alice."

Rowley is pleased to see his work being shown.

Gion looked blankly at everything around him that was familiar yet unfamiliar, and listened to the rebellious remarks coming out of Raleigh's mouth.

In fact, the Navy Headquarters knew about Raleigh's cooperation with the Mafia.

Both Kake and Gion had reported to the Navy Headquarters, but when they reported, they downplayed their ties with the Mafia and emphasized their belief in a stable situation.

It now appears that Rowley's understanding may have surpassed that of a generation.

Although it was dark, Chanialal Island was still brightly lit with strings of lanterns.

Raleigh and his two companions walked aimlessly on the busy streets of the town. They wanted to see if Raleigh's method would work.

"Grilled octopus, come and try it!"

Fried rice cake, an ancestral craft!

These octopus balls are just out of the pan. Would you like some, pretty girl?

The night market is very lively, different from the night market during the last operation.

At that time, vendors would not dare to risk their lives to do business so late at night, but now the smiles on their faces prove that they are not pretending.

"I'd like some takoyaki."

Rowley took out his wallet from his pocket and prepared to buy some octopus balls.

“Three hundred Baileys, thank you sir.

The vendor greeted warmly.

Rowley nodded, pulled out three Baileys from his wallet and put them in the vendor's hand. The vendor put a portion of hot octopus balls in Rowley's palm, took the Baileys and put them in a large jar.

Then he counted out a few small Baileys from the big jar and put them into the small jar nearby.

Gion saw this scene and asked curiously:

Boss, why do you want to separate Bailey? Why not put them together?

The vendor had just made a deal and was in a good mood when he said:

"Guest, this is our custom here. Since the Salisbury family took over Chanial Island a few months ago, part of our income has to be given to them.

Gion's expression changed, and she knew that the Mafia family would not be so kind.

Just as he was about to say something, Rowley suddenly pulled his hand and left the night market.

On the road outside the night market, Gion looked at Raleigh with confusion and disappointment;

Raleigh, I originally thought that you united the Mafia families to maintain regional stability and protect the comfort of civilians. Fortunately, Kake and I said a lot of good things about you in the report. "

Low Park's angry look made Luo Li laugh. After hearing this, Alice quickly explained;

No, Sister Gion, it has nothing to do with Lord Raleigh. They gave it voluntarily.

Rather than worrying about being displaced every day, worrying about being shot or caught and sold, they are actually more willing to give the Mafia family some Bailey as protection money."

I asked them once, and they said it was worth it to have a stable, peaceful environment under the control of the Salisbury family."

Alice's words had a great impact on Gion's cognition.

Gion, who grew up in the headquarters, has always believed that black is black and white is white.

She was protected too well and had no chance to see the most abundant gray in the world.

Although she had experienced many dark things with Lori, there were still many things that constantly impacted her cognition. She didn't know when Lori's big hand had already held Gion's small hand.

Gion raised his head and saw the determined look of Raleigh under his lazy gaze:

'Whether it is to keep the mafia or to collect protection money from civilians, it is a stopgap measure, a choice we made when we had no other choice. ”

"If you want to change the world, you must first strengthen your own power, and to strengthen your own power, the most important thing is to control your base.

The North Sea is vast, dotted with islands and densely populated.

Moreover, due to the martial spirit and harsh environment of Beihai over the past few hundred years, the physical fitness of Beihai people is extremely high, and they can become qualified naval soldiers with just a little training."

If Raleigh doesn't handle the affairs of the North Sea well, then the people of the North Sea will most likely choose to go out to sea and become pirates in the next Age of Discovery. Whether they become pirates or mafia members, these are consequences that Raleigh does not want to bear. Under Raleigh's operation, the mafia families in the North Sea can control an island, and they will not add additional manpower in this case.

Because the road to outward expansion has been blocked by Raleigh, they can only develop the islands in their hands. However, there is no need to expand when developing the islands in their hands, and the original manpower is enough.

Alice continued:

In the past few months, our Salisbury family has been actively fighting against the pirates and human traffickers who came to invade us."

“In the hearts of the islanders, the reputation of our Salisbury family is getting better and better.”

However, a mysterious force appeared some time ago and has kidnapped dozens of people on the island. We have no way to fight against it, which is why we asked Lord Raleigh to come here."

"If this mysterious force is not resolved soon, the reputation of our Salisbury family will be destroyed."

Listening to Alice's words, Raleigh also realized the impact this mysterious force had on the Salisbury family.

To put it bluntly, the Salisbury family now has more influence than the officials on the island.

With the Salisbury family, Raleigh could control everything on Chanialal Island.

If they fell into the hands of a mysterious force, then Raleigh's painstakingly planned plan would be ruined.

Because if those mafia families who were frightened and forced to surrender saw the navy fail, they would definitely choose to rebel at the first moment.

“This is indeed a bit troublesome.

Raleigh shook his head. He wasn't worried about it."

Now he can be said to be one of the best masters in the North Sea. Since Borsalino left, he should be the most powerful person in the navy.

It's just that I don't know how long I have to wait on Chanial Island, because according to what Alice said,
