Chapter 38 [World Summit, Encountering The World Government Team]

"How's it going? Chauvin?" Rupert asked impatiently before Chauvin could catch his breath.

Rex sits on the deck in a specially constructed, sofa-like seat similar to Whitebeard's on the deck of the Moby-Dick.Hearing this, he also looked at Shavin."Okay, I have temporarily repaired all the damaged parts, and the cracks in the keel have been sealed with wooden boards.""There is absolutely no problem in persisting to the next island!" Chauvin replied affirmatively."That's good!" Rex breathed a sigh of relief and let's leave it at that for now.When the Seven Waters City gets a better new ship in the future, although the keel of this ship is not good, more than 99% of the parts can be replaced and used. When the time comes, you can save some money by replacing it.At the bow of the ship, Hoffman controlled the rudder and sailed under Elena's guidance.They have been out at sea for four days, and the next island is not far away.It was just because of the previous crisis that it deviated from the route. Now it has lost its previous magnetic guidance and can only go to new islands.Suddenly, a pounding sound sounded.A seagull with a backpack landed on the boat."Oh, newspaper delivery bird." Elton quickly stepped forward and took out his money to buy a few newspapers.Speaking of which, even pirates have to pay for the newspapers delivered by the newspaper delivery bird.Otherwise, if the news is spread back, the newspaper bird will not land the next time we see a newspaper-grabbing boat.Even killing the newspaper bird would be of no use.These newspaper birds seem to have some means of identifying the ship that killed their companions.After getting the newspaper, Elton handed one to Rex and spread the newspapers to others.Looking at some small newspapers, Rex opened them carefully. Linlin next to him also came over and watched carefully."World Summit?"The headline on the front page is the most important event of the year, the quadrennial World Government Conference.This year, every franchise country in the world will go to World Government under the protection of CP and Marine.Among them, fifty representatives will be elected, a new speaker will be rotated, and some policies for the next four years will be discussed, etc.Of course, in fact, these are just show-offs, and the final decision-making power belongs to Five Elders.It's just something innocuous for them to make decisions and approve, to show the fairness of world government.Rex thought about it. In the original book, the World Summit was held in 1522, but this year is Sea Circle Calendar 1470, exactly 52 years ago.After a rough look, Rex was not interested in World Summit. It had nothing to do with him anyway and was far away.The policies they formulate actually have little impact on themselves.Turning the page, Rex continued to read other news."Oh~ A Devil Fruit was auctioned, and a melee broke out?"Rex's eyes lit up and he looked carefully at the pattern of Devil Fruit on the screen.'Hmm...I don't know, I have to find a way to get a Devil Fruit illustrated book. ' Rex thought to himself.Turning another page, Rex saw something interesting again.The Rocks Pirate has done many evil things. Half a month ago, he robbed a ship belonging to the World Government and killed everyone on board?'Well, it's like Rocks' behavior, going against the world government. 'Looking again, Rex saw the news about the Roger Pirates, and fled in panic under Marine's pursuit. Marine was promoted to Rear Admiral because of the pursuit.Marine was not mentioned, or even just passed over. He was more praising the superior commander for his good command, and then criticized pirates for having no future, and persuaded the public not to have the idea of ​​​​being pirates.After flipping through a few more pages, I saw no interesting news.Rex took out the reward order sandwiched between the newspapers and read it.First on the list, of course, is Rocks.Today, Rocks' reward has reached 1.735 billion!Don't underestimate 1.735 billion. In this era, only a handful of people can exceed one billion!It was not like a few decades later when Roger ushered in the Age of Discovery, which doubled the pressure on various countries and had to increase sky gold and marine military expenditures.Even Rex's teacher Yasuo would have exceeded a billion if he hadn't robbed a pirate ship with Celestial Dragons.On the second page, Roger is smiling like an idiot.Rex shook his head and thought to himself: 'No wonder Shanks chose Luffy in the end. ''This idiot looks exactly like Luffy when he grows up. 'Looking at the bounty, hehe, it's not low!Already 720 million.After Roger, there is his co-captain, Rayleigh, who has already received the title of Pluton.The bounty is 456 million, which is not low.After all, the Roger Pirates haven't been out at sea very long, just a few years earlier than him.And at this time, he didn't fight against the World government. He was more like an adventurer, running around the world.Although there is also a case of going to war with Marine and killing Marine.But compared to Rocks, it's nothing."Well, although this bounty is nothing, since you have become a pirate, no one will be embarrassed."Rex flipped through a few more pages, all of which were little-known items, and threw them aside without interest.You have to find a way to offer a reward, otherwise it will be embarrassing for people to be treated as minions.Although he thought so, Rex had no intention of actively looking for trouble or plundering.After all, he has received nine years of compulsory education. Robbery is not something a man should do.Of course, it's not impossible to eat gangsters or rob nobles who are rich and cruel.No, this cannot be said to be robbery!Robbery is not something a man should do, but doing justice to God, robbing the rich and giving to the poor, is just that.After sailing for several days, Hoffman at the helm suddenly shouted."Elena, we saw land!""Ah, I saw it too!" Standing next to him, Elena rolled her eyes at the naive Hoffman, turned to Rex and said, "Brother, we'll be here soon.""Well, okay!" Rex, who was sitting in the exclusive seat on the deck, nodded, got up and walked onto the top deck of the bow.The island is very busy at this time.Escorted by a group of officials and escorts, the richly dressed king walked towards the port with his wife and daughter.Beside him, there were several CPs wearing masks.Suddenly, there was a commotion at the port, and a soldier shouted: "Pirates! Pirates are attacking!""What?" The civilians who saw off the king were shocked, but they did not dare to escape due to the majesty of the past.The king's face also looked a little ugly. He had also read the newspaper a few days ago. If he encountered it, it would probably be very bad."Quick, ask, which pirate group is it?" the king ordered.After a while, the guard who went to inquire came back and told the king: "Your Majesty, this is a pirate group that I have never seen before."Hearing this, the king immediately breathed a sigh of relief, "Isn't he not famous?""There is no reward!" the guard replied."What, you scared me!" The king's daughter took out a scarf and wiped her forehead, then patted her plump chest.On the side, those CPs who seemed to be unconcerned, but in fact their muscles were tense, also breathed a sigh of relief.If it were the Rocks Pirate, or those top pirate groups, they wouldn't dare say they could fight against it.At most, they can only protect the king and avoid risks for the time being, but by then, their mission will be considered a failure."Come on, let's go take a look!" CP didn't want to delay transporting the king of this country to Mariejois to attend the World Summit, so he decided to take action to get rid of this little pirate group.At sea, after gradually approaching the island, everyone also discovered that the port seemed quite lively."That's... the World government's ship!" Baobao said."Indeed!" Rex took a look and confirmed."It seems that they are here to pick up the ships that are going to attend the meeting.""Don't worry, just go over there!" Rex ordered.
