So they vied to get a piece of the Sihai Chamber of Commerce's business in their country.
King Cobra did not resist these requests.
He understood that only by sharing interests could he develop more allies.
Monopolizing resources will only lead to jealousy and hostility from other countries, and may eventually lead to Alabasta being isolated and helpless.
As such, he is willing to share the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce's commercial interests with other nations in order to expand Alabasta's influence and support network.
However, King Cobra does not treat all countries equally.
He fully utilized his political abilities, skillfully winning over one group of countries while suppressing another group of potential opponents.
King Cobra gave positive responses and support to those countries that showed sincerity and were willing to cooperate sincerely.
As for those countries that tried to use Alabasta for personal gain or were hostile to Alabasta, he took a more cautious attitude and even joined forces with other friendly countries to check and balance them.
In addition to King Cobra, King Riku also became an important contact for many countries seeking military assistance.
Because of the relationship with the Cross Guild, Doflamingo decided to withdraw from the underground arms trade in the New World and handed over this huge channel to Crocodile.
Under the introduction of El, King Riku cooperated with Crocodile, and with the help of the fleet of the Sabaody Archipelago, King Riku had an arms transportation network covering the whole world.
As King Neptune was attending the World Conference for the first time, he also received private invitations from many countries.
These countries have shown strong interest in the fish-men and hope to ignore Alabasta and cooperate with the fish-men of Fish-man Island alone.
However, faced with those tempting proposals and conditions, King Neptune still firmly chose to reject everyone.
Throughout history, Fishman Island has attempted to establish a cooperative relationship with humans many times, but has often failed.
The betrayal of the human nation caused Fishman Island to suffer huge losses.
So even though these countries now offer various tempting conditions, King Neptune understands that accepting these proposals will only cause history to repeat itself.
And for King Neptune, having El's assistance is enough.
On the second day of the World Conference, the kings of various countries received a statement from the Revolutionary Army declaring war on the World Government.
This sudden news immediately changed the tone of the meeting, shifting the main topic of discussion to how to deal with the threat of the revolutionary army.
After all, although pirates may plunder civilians and merchant ships, they do not directly threaten the core of various countries' regimes.
In contrast, the revolutionary army's goal is to overthrow the existing ruling system, which is a more urgent and serious threat to the kings of various countries.
In the following days, representatives of various countries held countless discussions, trying to find effective countermeasures to deal with the threat of the revolutionary army.
However, consensus could not be reached on one core issue.
Kings of various countries generally believed that the navy should assume the responsibility of protecting their countries, but they were unwilling to pay more for it.
Although some wealthier countries have proposed to increase their military spending appropriately, they also require other countries to make corresponding contributions.
However, those countries with less developed economies said their countries could not afford the additional spending.
At this time, Al was closely watching the every move of the Five Elder Stars.
In crowded and noisy places, his stealth skills are enough to allow him to blend in without being noticed.
However, to truly sneak into those hidden places, even if one conceals one's own breath, it is difficult to completely avoid their keen perception.
Not long ago, Al's attempt to get closer to the throne room was almost exposed.
At that time, he noticed that the Five Elders had all left the Room of Power at the same time, so he cleverly disguised himself as an ordinary waiter, concealing his own breath, and followed them from a distance.
However, as he gradually approached the room of power, with the help of his ability to predict the future, he realized that if he stayed outside the door for too long, it would immediately arouse the other party's suspicion.
So he evacuated there without hesitation.
So far he still knew nothing about Im's plan.
But his efforts these days have not been in vain.
With the ability of the Voice of All Things, he listened carefully to the sounds in every corner and even conducted a thorough search of the base of the Knights of God, but still failed to obtain any information about special energy.
Al could understand that he couldn't find the Uranus. After all, the Uranus was such a powerful ancient weapon, and its hiding place must be extremely secret.
But as for energy, Al felt that it should be kept in a crucial place like Pangu City so that it can be quickly used at a critical moment.
Unless this kind of energy really does not exist, then I have been doing useless work these days.
When the World Conference comes to an end, Eru plans to create chaos and deepen the conflict between the World Government and the Revolutionary Army, thereby diverting the World Government's attention from Alabasta.
After he watched King Cobra leave Marijoa safely, he took advantage of the cover of night to avoid patrolling soldiers and various security facilities and sneaked into Pangu City in Marijoa again.
The target this time is the granary of the Celestial Dragons, where the world's finest ingredients are stored. Each one has been carefully selected, and the quality is far beyond ordinary imagination, even better than the top ingredients that Aunt Wanguo collected to prepare the wedding cake.
As long as their food source is destroyed, and the Revolutionary Army is currently intercepting Marijoa's supplies, the Celestial Dragons will feel the pain.
Committing his crime once again, he came to the edge of the tall roof of the granary and, like last time, created a hole large enough for him to enter.
This time he did not let the Den Den Mushi go like he did before. He first knocked them out and then began to store all the food in the warehouse into his own black hole space.
Perhaps because of the last treasure theft, this time the guards quickly noticed the failure of the Den Den Mushi communication in the granary.
They first checked other warehouses to make sure there were no abnormalities in the surveillance at those locations.
After confirmation, they contacted the guards guarding the granary and asked them to enter the granary to check the conditions of the lines there.
Soon, the alarm that echoed throughout Pangu City sounded again, and the warehouse theft that made the Tianlong people furious occurred again.
Chapter 235 Reiju's Departure
Figalando Shamrock came to the granary with a gloomy face. His appearance immediately brought an invisible pressure to the people around him, making the air around them seem to solidify a little.
He first listened to the report from the members of the Knights of God on the malfunction of the Den Den Mushi and the preliminary investigation, frowning as he thought.
His father was dismissed from his post by the Five Elders because of the treasure vault theft case two years ago, and this incident has always been deeply engraved in his heart.
Although that incident prompted him to become the leader of the Knights of God ahead of schedule, facing the theft case that happened again, Figalando felt extremely complicated.
This was not just a simple theft, but also a huge challenge to his personal ability and family reputation.
Originally, he had been in an unusually irritable mood these past few days.
Because after his weapon was destroyed, the Cerberus ability that was originally attached to it also disappeared.
That was the symbol of honor he won when he first participated in the God's Hunt as a young man and won the championship, the Dog-Dog Fruit, the Mythical Beast, the Cerberus Form.
Due to the pride of the Celestial Dragons and the warning of his father, Fegalando Galin, he did not choose to directly consume the Devil Fruit to increase his strength.
Instead, he used advanced technology to transplant the power of the devil fruit onto weapons, giving his sword the power of the three-headed dog of hell.
Soon, Junzi's arrival broke the suffocating silence at the scene. "Captain, I found a damaged area in the corner of the roof. The traces there are exactly the same as the back door of the treasure house that was damaged in the case two years ago."
Although her voice was calm, the information it revealed was like a bombshell. Everyone present could feel the tension in the air instantly increase.
Upon hearing this, Figalando Shamrock's face became even gloomier. He quickly jumped onto the big bird at Junzi's feet and rushed to the edge of the roof.
When he came to the entrance of the cave, he bent down and carefully examined the traces there.
The irregular twisted marks were exactly as Junzi had said, and were exactly the same as the treasure house theft case two years ago.
"It's been two years, and they still use the same method." Shamrock's voice was low and suppressed, as if it came from deep in his chest. "Our Knights of God are really looked down upon."
The soldier standing beside him remained silent and just stared at his commander quietly.
After a moment, he quickly changed his angry mood and instructed his deputy beside him: "Junzi, arrange for someone to deal with the aftermath here, and send someone to keep an eye on the changes in the life paper. If there is any movement, notify me immediately."
Then, he turned around and quickly left the scene, heading towards the Power Room, preparing to report the case to the Five Elders.
Since the last treasury was robbed, his father, Jialin Sheng, after thinking for a long time, made a large number of special life papers.
These life papers have been specially treated so that they can establish a connection with the objects they are bound to.
Precious treasures marked by the life paper can become clues to track down thieves.
Even the most inconspicuous granary stores a batch of exquisite tableware bound by life paper.
As long as the thief still has the marked items, they have a chance to follow the clues and bring this cunning enemy to justice.
Before Shamrock stepped into the realm of power, the Five Elders had already discussed the grain warehouse theft incident.
"According to the report submitted, it should be the crime committed by the user of the Dark-Dark Fruit from last time." The God of Justice Topman Vorchulisheng spoke first.
"Which side does he belong to? What is the purpose of stealing the granary this time?" The God of Finance Izambaron V. Nasujuro asked in confusion, frowning slightly, obviously confused about the purpose of the theft.
The God of Agriculture Shepard Ten Peter Saint thought for a moment and said, "Could it be related to the Revolutionary Army? Their people attacked government material transport ships around the world."
The God of Environment, Marcus Maz Saint, nodded in agreement. "It's very possible, but I have to say that the Revolutionary Army is stupid. Do they think that this will cut off the food supply to Marijoa?"
The God of Science Defense, Jaigolucia Satan, maintained his usual calm attitude, "Don't underestimate them. In all these years, they are the first resistance organization to achieve such a high level of momentum."
When Shamrock stepped into the Power Room, despite the serious atmosphere, he found that the Five Elders did not show any special expressions.
For Shamrock, this visit was not only to report the situation, but also to apologize for the Knights of God's failure to prevent the theft from happening again.
After listening to Shamrock's concise and self-blaming report, the scene fell into a brief silence.
Then, Saint Topman Vochuli spoke slowly, his voice low but clear: "Shamrock, this matter concerns the honor of your Fegalando family. Go and catch this rat from the underworld and wash away the stain of your Knights of God."
"The Knights of God will do their best to catch this dirty rat and restore the honor of the Knights of God and the family of Fegalando."
After Shamrock made his solemn declaration, he saluted solemnly to the Five Elders to express his determination.
Then he turned and left the power room.
On the other side, after successfully emptying the Celestial Dragons' granary, El quickly left Marijoa.
He took advantage of the cover of night and flew quickly towards Dressrosa.
At noon the next day, El finally returned to the temporary base of the Germa Kingdom located in the nearby sea.
As soon as he arrived, he met Shakya who was discussing biotechnology enthusiastically with Jiazhi.
During this period, Judge learned a lot of more advanced biotechnology knowledge from this incarnation of Vegapunk.
Over the past week, Sakya carefully observed the various snail technologies manufactured by Jiazhi, and made in-depth adjustments to the designs of these snails based on the ideas of saving resources and mass production proposed by Al.
After Sakya's careful improvement, the new generation of snail device has undergone significant changes.
The originally complex and diverse functions have been greatly streamlined, and now they only retain the two most critical functions, the ability to become larger and to obey commands.
At the same time, in order to ensure safety during navigation, Sakya also specially added a sound wave function that can drive away large fish creatures.
Whenever a large marine creature approaches, it will hear the sound waves emitted by the snail, which are harmless to humans but are enough to make the marine creature feel uncomfortable and stay away.
In addition, Sakya also transformed the snail's shell, turning it into a safe and comfortable space for carrying passengers.
In this way, even if there is a storm at sea, it will not affect the passengers hiding in the volute.
As for the cloning plan, Shakya also proposed a very forward-looking design plan.
He borrowed the advanced charging technology of the lunar city of Piruka and combined it with the nanofiber materials provided by Alabasta to design a new type of Pacifist that can release lightning.
The core of the new type of Pacifist is the use of nanofiber materials provided by Alabasta. This material has automatic repair properties and can effectively prevent system paralysis caused by minor faults.
This means that the Pacifist is more reliable when performing missions and does not need to return to base frequently for repairs, greatly improving its sustained combat capability on the battlefield.
And most importantly, the cost is extremely low, which fully meets Al's cost requirements.
And as long as the islands they are stationed on are equipped with power generation equipment, these pacifists can continuously draw energy from the environment and keep themselves running.
On the other side, Carrot also brought important news about Zou Island to El.
Ever since Zou Island sent members of the King Bird to Wano Country to confirm that Kozuki Momonosuke had appeared at the ruins of Oden Castle in Kuri, Boss Cat Viper and Duke Inuarashi made a remarkable decision.
They passed the throne of the Zou Kingdom to Pedro, who had just returned from the World and had lived for more than 50 years.
Not only that, Cat Viper and Duke Inuarashi refused the help of the Minks. They planned to use their own strength to make up for the regrets they had with Kozuki Oden.
Upon hearing the news that Kozuki Momonosuke had appeared, El's thoughts involuntarily returned to the Bibi Fruit that had interested him in the first place.
Now that he has dealt with Kurozumi Orochi, it is time to deal with Kurozumi Kanjuro.
If we act too late and Kanjuro's identity as an undercover agent is exposed and killed in advance by Kin'emon or others, it would be a waste of time.
He planned to give this Bibi Fruit to Ms. Golden Week Mariannu who was far away in Alabasta.
Among the people he knew, Marianu had a unique talent for painting.
She can control other people's emotions simply by applying paint to her palette, and is like a special attack to someone like Luffy.
The abilities granted by the Bibi Fruit may allow her to not only influence people's emotions through paint, but also directly create entities with paintings, giving life to her works of art, thus opening up new possibilities.
The potential of the magic brush Ma Liang is almost unlimited. A partner who can provide strong support and respond flexibly to various situations will be the best assistant to Weiwei.
