One Piece: King of the World

Chapter 16 To visit Naval Headquarters?

In the palace of Claudius, in the huge pond in the courtyard at this time, there are two very beautiful mermaid ladies swimming happily in it.

This is exactly the merman slave that Doflamingo gave to Claudius when he left Mariejois two months ago, and Claudius kept the two of them here for eye-catching purposes.

After nearly two months of getting acquainted, these two fish clan girls also seem to have learned some things. For example, their new owner is not a guy who likes to torture slaves for fun, and looks a little handsome and treats them too. More friendly.

At least compared with their previous lives, although they still have not been able to leave Mariejois and gain freedom, at least they don’t have to wear slave collars around their necks, nor are they locked in huge fish tanks for people to watch, and no one put them. Some fierce piranhas and the like made fun of them to see how they fled in embarrassment.

At this time, not far from the pond, Claudius was fighting with a few guys wearing slave collars around their necks, as if they were using actual combat to hone their skills against the enemy.

The two little mermaid girls are also lying on the edge of this pond, watching the situation there curiously.

“Guy Li, why do you say that His Royal Highness Claudius is doing these things? Isn’t he Celestial Dragons?” A mermaid lady asked her companion very curiously.

Another mermaid lady, Guy Li, shook her head in confusion, and said, “Maybe it’s because of idleness. When I first came here, I was frightened. I didn’t expect that His Royal Highness Claudius was actually a strange Celestial Dragons. , Without torture, let us not say, but also took off the slave collar for us…”

Having said this, a hope flashed in her eyes, and then she continued to ask in a low voice: “Lenny, you said… Will it be possible for His Royal Highness Claudius to let us go home in the future?”

Lenny was silent for a while after hearing the words, his eyes flashed with hope, and then he said, “I don’t know, but…I always feel hopeful.”

“It would be great if I could go home, I really miss The fish men island.” Guy Li said softly.

In the past, they were in the hands of Doflamingo, thinking that it would be good if they could survive. After being here for two months, they all felt that they had hope to go home. If Claudius knew about it, I don’t know how funny it would be. Does it look kind-hearted?

At the same time, Claudius also punched a gladiator-like slave away, and then his face became a little gloomy.

“I said, you can let go of your hands and feet and fight with me. You don’t need to worry too much. Even if I am injured, you will not be held accountable. Then… why are you still shrinking? When am I playing some fighting game with you? Acting?” Claudius asked with a gloomy face.

The slaves he questioned were all so frightened that they knelt down in the courtyard, trembling all over, didn’t dare to speak at all, they were cold and sweaty.

Watching this scene, Claudius felt very upset and disgusted. These slaves have been domesticated too badly. They have lost all courage and hope, especially these guys who are a little bit of force. They must be sent to Celestial Dragons. Before using it, strict’teaching’ has passed. After all, if you don’t tidy up them well, what if you accidentally become aggressive and hurt the noble Celestial Dragons? At that time, the servants of the domesticated slaves will also die with them!

So even if Claudius promised a lot, or even stated that if anyone could beat him, he would restore his freedom or something, these slaves did not dare to actually do it, just like playing some fancy show, just like Claudius fake it. He fought a few pretentiously, then sold a flaw inexplicably and was defeated.

On the one hand, they don’t have much trust in Claudius. After all, Claudius is Celestial Dragons. They don’t believe that if he wins, he will be restored to freedom. Maybe it’s because Celestial Dragons feel shameful and will kill them. .

On the other hand, maybe they think that playing with this young master Celestial Dragons like this, and coaxing him to be happy, can they and others live a little easier?

Seeing their disagreeable appearances, like walking corpses, Claudius became more bored in his heart, waved at the butler Nia, and said, “Send all of them to the arena. Don’t let me see these disgusting guys again. NS.”

The housekeeper Nia nodded quickly and greeted a few times, and then some guards came and escorted the group of walking corpses out of the courtyard.

Then Nia came over with a cup of fragrant tea, and said softly: “His Royal Highness, why do you need to breathe with those slaves? Your Majesty, you have already given them a chance. It is because they themselves are not up for it and can’t hold it. Good luck, you deserve to be this slave.”

Claudius reached out and took the tea from Nia, took two sips to moisturize his throat, then shook his head and said, “Poor people must be hateful. I am a slave to be slaughtered. It is not these wastes that I hate, but they don’t even have the value of using wastes. No matter how many times I fight with them, I can’t really experience the extent of my strength. ”

Claudius has been working behind closed doors for a little half a year, and with constant training, he should have made considerable progress, but no one around him can compete with him.

Originally, he wanted to find some slaves to practice his hand. If he could feel improved or something, he would let them free when he was happy, but it turned out to be good. This group of slaves disappointed him very much.

In fact, he also thought about concealing his identity, secretly going to the arena to play two games or something, but after he told Nya about this proposal, Nya was immediately stunned, and the boss of the arena was called to listen to this. After the proposal, he almost didn’t scare to death in front of Claudius.

Just kidding, if Saint Claudius is really injured in his arena, his family will be buried with him, and if other Celestial Dragons find out that Claudius is fighting with lowly slaves in his arena. , He is also a place to die without burial.

Claudius didn’t want to ignore the life and death of other people’s family for this kind of thing, so he finally dispelled the idea.

Returning the teacup to Nia again, Claudius rubbed his chin for a moment and then said, “If there is no other way…maybe I will go to Naval Headquarters.”

“Naval Headquarters?” The butler Nia repeated in surprise.

“Yes… Why didn’t I think about it earlier? I concealed my identity and asked Zephyr Admiral to arrange a few potential stocks in Marine for me… How simple is this?” Claudius thought about it, and found it feasible. The flashing light came.

Although Nia felt a little unreliable, Claudius said so. As the chief steward, she only needed to carry out the will of her Highness.

“That’s it. Get the phone worm. I need to contact Zephyr Admiral.” Claudius said with a smile.

Naval Headquarters·Mallinford, in the Marshal’s office, the General Marshal Kong is looking at some documents in his hand. A few months ago, the Great Pirate Ochoku and Golden Lion Shiki had a fierce conflict in New World.

The two powerful pirate forces fought extremely turbulently, but the situation has become clearer recently. It is the pirate fleet of Golden Lion Shiki that has the upper hand, and Ochoku’s forces have been dispersed. Eight or eight.

“Perhaps in one or two months, there should be a victory or defeat between them?” Kong thought to himself as he looked at the information in his hand.

At this moment, the office door was knocked, and not long after, Zephyr Admiral with a strange expression walked in. Kong looked at him and asked very curiously: “Zephyr, what’s going on? Is something wrong? Why a strange expression?”

“Something did happen, Mariejois has a Celestial Dragons coming to our Malinford…visit?” Zephyr touched his chin, still a little weird.

Marshal Kong also froze for a while, then he looked for documents on his desk, and then said with some confusion: “What’s wrong with you? I haven’t received such notice.”

Celestial Dragons came to Naval Headquarters·Mallingford to visit Naval Headquarters·Mallingford. It’s not uncommon, but it rarely appears, often not once in ten years, but every time, it makes a lot of momentum and makes the grid full, so If this happened, he wouldn’t know if he was a marshal.

Zephyr smiled when he heard the words, and said, “No, it’s not an official visit, but a private call bug I received…”

“Personal phone worm? Can you still have contact with Celestial Dragons?” Kong smiled and asked.

But as soon as he said this, he was taken aback, frowned slightly, and asked, “Is that… the Claudius of the Donquixote family?”

Zephyr didn’t hide anything, nodded and said, “Yes, that majesty is also weird. He just contacted me inexplicably and said that he would come to visit us at Naval Headquarters, but he told us not to go too far. After preparation, he will hide his identity of Celestial Dragons and tell us not to leak it…”

“His…” Marshal Kong took a breath, then shook his head and said, “We are a private visit? This highness is really a maverick. I have never heard of Celestial Dragons visiting like this… Zephyr, Did that highness say what he is going to do? I don’t think he is just curious about the situation of our Naval Headquarters. Come and have a look?”

“Hmm… Ask me to prepare him some good seedlings of Marine, he wants to try his skills… or something.” Zephyr said embarrassingly.

General Marshal Kong is stunned by this. You have a private visit from Celestial Dragons to Naval Headquarters·Marinford. Want to fight against people from Marine? Isn’t this embarrassing us? What if you accidentally hurt you? Do you want to pay for this year’s military?

“This…this is really beyond my expectation.” Marshal Kong finally said so.

After thinking about it for a while, he scratched his head and continued: “It’s better to pick two people who will come, and have a good time with that majesty. Please pay attention to it. Don’t lose the face of Celestial Dragons, otherwise it will be very difficult. Trouble.”

Zephyr smiled and shook his head when he heard the words, and said, “I don’t think this is good. Marshal, you have never contacted His Royal Highness Claudius. Perhaps your opinion of him is not so accurate… how to say it, just like I used to be. As said, that His Royal Highness is actually very different from the rest of Celestial Dragons. I think he really wanted to sharpen himself here this time. If possible, I want to take this matter seriously. .”

Marshal Kong looked at Zephyr Admiral’s expression a little strangely, and then asked, “Why?”

“After all… he is considered half of my disciple. I also want to see if he, as Celestial Dragons, has grown up in the past six months.” Zephyr Admiral smiled and said.

Marshal Kong was silent for a long time, and finally nodded, and said: “You are very accurate to see people, this time I believe you are fine, but if something troubles me, you can go to Mariejois and please yourself.”

“Leave it to me.” Zephyr Admiral nodded and said with a smile. *
