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

"Miles, go to the kitchen and get me a few fresh coconuts. Open them and put the straws on them."

Then he turned to Gion and said:

"Gion, the value of life lies in enjoyment. We cannot waste this beautiful day. Let's drink a glass of coconut milk together."

Gion had a cold face and ignored this guy, going to the deck to train by himself.

She is not a genius like Raleigh, although she is also considered a genius in the headquarters.

But sometimes the gap between humans and monsters is just too big.

Under the scorching sun, Gion was sweating and dripping like the flying squirrel before.

Sweat soaked her clothes, and her already sexy figure became even more attractive.

However, at this moment, Raleigh had no intention of appreciating the alluring spring scenery of Gion.

Instead, he focused on the information in his hand. He didn't care much about these things before when he was in the East China Sea.

Anyway, according to his thinking, as long as he did not leave the East China Sea, nothing could threaten him.

Wait until after staying in the East China Sea for more than ten years and winning the invincibility prize in the lottery before taking action.

Things don't always go as planned, and good brother Borsalino pulls himself out of his gentle nest.

I can only watch the news to learn about major events happening in the world.

There is nothing particularly shocking about the big news this year. It is nothing more than which pirate group occupied which territory in the New World and which new members joined.

But there was one thing that caught Raleigh's attention.

The report said that the Whitebeard Pirates went to a samurai country and invited a samurai to become a crew member of the pirate group.

When Raleigh saw this report, he drew a red circle around it.

Chapter 18: The Tragedy of the Massacre

If he remembered correctly, it should be the daimyo of Wano Country, Kozuki Oden.

Generally speaking, Kozuki Oden is a fool. Although he is a vice-captain in terms of strength, he is like an idiot when it comes to political struggles.

Not to mention his son, if Raleigh were to run into him.

Without saying anything else, let's chop off his son's head first. (Whether the world will be overturned or not, Momonosuke must die anyway.)

Donquixote Doflamingo killed his father last year, but was humiliated by the Celestial Dragons and left Marijoa.

Judging from the time, he should have met the cadres of the future Don Quixote family.

As far as I can remember, Doflamingo made his fortune in the North Sea.

Raleigh gave a mysterious smile. Doflamingo was a useful chess piece.

The sun is shining brightly on the East China Sea.

Outside the cabin, naval soldiers were patrolling and standing guard. They were carefully checking the guns and artillery on the ship to ensure the stability of the weapons and equipment.

On the spacious deck, Gion and Kake were seizing every minute to train.

Kaji was doing push-ups while carrying a huge dumbbell. Sweat dripped onto the deck and his arms were trembling slightly, but he still persisted.

Gion held the famous sword in his hand and swung it calmly. The sharp blade cut through the air, making bursts of sharp whistling sounds.

However, Luo Li's practice was a little different from theirs. He just closed his eyes and his body was naturally relaxed. If you ignore the saliva at the corners of his mouth, it would be fine.

[Sleeping during work hours, slacking off value +100]

[Sleeping during work hours, slacking off value +100]

......

"Colonel Raleigh, something is happening in the distance."

The messenger on the lookout shouted loudly.

Gion and Kake stopped training, and Raleigh woke up from his sleep.

"Well, what happened?"

"Report, we saw an island burning outside the route. We can't tell whether it was a pirate attack or an accident."

Raleigh nodded, his mind spinning rapidly.

At present, we have left the defense area of ​​Branch No. 133, and theoretically the probability of encountering pirates attacking the village is much greater.

After thinking about it, Raleigh decided to go over and take a look.

"Target: The burning island ahead. All soldiers, prepare for battle, and keep the warships fully operational."

beep!

As Raleigh's order was given, the warship suddenly began to accelerate.

The rows of naval soldiers on the deck were already ready for battle, although they were not Raleigh's direct subordinates.

But he is also a veteran from the Marine Headquarters, and his tactical skills are much better than those of the Marines from the Four Seas Branch.

Gion and Kake came over:

"Rawley, what is that place?"

Raleigh picked up the nautical chart and marked:

"The Kingdom of Totnes is one of the member states of the World Government. But it is far inferior to the Goa Kingdom we were in before."

"Because of the deviation from the route, the country's economic level is very low, and the civilians living there can only rely on farming to support themselves."

"Also because of poverty, the World Government doesn't care about small countries like this, which makes the Kingdom of Totnes a weak point in the navy's defense. Those pirate groups love to rob countries like this."

After hearing what Raleigh said, Gion tightened his grip on the famous sword in his hand.

"Damn pirates!"

Then he looked at Raleigh with a resolute gaze:

"Rawley, we must hurry over there and try to kill all these pirates."

Raleigh nodded calmly.

"It's okay to kill the pirates, but the problem is that I won't help you if you do it."

Of course, he didn't dare say this in front of Gion, for fear that Gion would get angry and report it to the Navy Headquarters.

With the warship accelerating at full speed, Raleigh soon saw the outline of the island.

With the help of telescope observation, he was the first to rule out the cause of the accidental fire.

Because at the port of the island, there are all kinds of corpses.

There were bodies of civilians who had been shot or hacked to death.

In the distance, the wooden huts and thatched cottages that were burning in the fire made crackling sounds.

A scene of doom.

"We...seem to be late."

After saying this, Raleigh silently handed the telescope to Gion.

In this scene, it doesn’t matter whether it was done by pirates or not, the people are already dead and there is no power that can bring them back to life.

After reading it, Gion and Kake also fell silent.

When the warship docked at the port, Raleigh turned his head slightly, and his observation Haki seemed to capture the breath of a living person.

When he passed the burning hut, he found a thin little girl at the edge of the fire.

The little girl, who was probably only five or six years old, had tears on her face and was waving a flag in her hand that was much taller than her body.

Looking at the sea of ​​fire in front of him, he remained silent.

Rowley walked up to her quietly.

"Sorry, we're late."

The little girl didn't know how long she held on, but she knew that the moment Raleigh touched her, she had fallen into a coma due to exhaustion.

His body fell limply to the ground, but his hands were still tightly holding the flag.

Gion, Kake and a group of naval soldiers fell silent as they watched this hellish scene.

The blazing fire seemed like it would never go out.

They burned wantonly, devouring all the houses and corpses.

Luo Li returned to the navy with the little girl in his arms and couldn't help but sigh:

"The tools and houses that civilians created with all their might in order to survive were easily destroyed by violence."

[This is the normal life of the civilians in this world, chaos, killing, living in fear every day. Even if they try their best to survive, they may be killed because of a game.]

Gion cursed angrily:

"These damn pirates wantonly committed violence against civilians. I will never let them off easily!"

Just as Gion finished speaking, a panting voice and footsteps were heard.

"No... they are not pirates. They are... the Kingdom Guards of this country."

Raleigh turned his head and saw a young female marine running over, wearing a uniform only worn by marine recruits.

He looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old, with his hair cut very short.

"Sir, I am Bellmaire, a private of the 127th Marine Branch, stationed in the Kingdom of Totnes."

Bellmère seemed to be running from a long distance and explained breathlessly.

Looking at the girl in Raleigh's arms, a hint of sympathy flashed in his eyes.

"Is she the only one who survived in this village? What a pitiful child."

Listening to Bellmère's explanation, Gion and Kake widened their eyes, as if they had heard something unbelievable.

"What did you say? Say it again? What's going on with the Kingdom Guards?"

Gion and Kake were very angry and were expecting the female navy in front of them to give them an explanation.

Chapter 19: The Corrupt Aristocracy

Gion and Kake were very confused and were expecting the female navy in front of them to explain to them.

"This village is Powow Village in the Kingdom of Totnes. The villagers here were robbed by pirates not long ago."

"Because of the suffering they have endured, they cannot afford to pay the taxes of the heavenly gold and the nobles."

"Their village chief once sent a letter to the nobles of the Kingdom of Totnes for this reason, requesting a tax reduction for this year, but those blood-sucking nobles disagreed. The Povo Village had no choice but to revolt, and then they were suppressed by the Kingdom Guards sent by the nobles."

Having said this, Bellmère, becoming increasingly emotional, clenched his fists tightly.

"If they were pirates, we could send troops to round them up. But they are the Kingdom Guards, and according to the rules, we have no right to interfere in the internal affairs of the Kingdom."

"But I never thought that they would be so cruel to their own compatriots. They are completely ruthless and want to kill them all. They are no different from those pirates."

"Those bastards!"

Gion drew out the Kemperor, and Kake clenched his fists in anger, as if he wanted to chase to the capital of the Kingdom of Totnes to seek an explanation.

Only Raleigh, after hearing about the Kingdom Guard, sighed slightly and then remained expressionless.

Gion shouted angrily to Raleigh:

"Rawley, why aren't you angry about this kind of scene? Let's go to their capital and seek justice for the dead villagers."

Raleigh shook his head and rejected Gion's proposal.

Gion said again:

"If you are worried that this incident will affect our evaluation of you, you can just blame it on me."

Raleigh glanced at Gion with cold eyes. Gion, who was originally extremely angry, couldn't help but shiver when he saw Raleigh's eyes.
