Chapter 224: A Wise Move
Hearing Katakuri's words, Charlotte Smoothie, who was only in her teens but already looked very mature, was immediately puzzled.
Shouldn't they, as the ones sent by the BIGMOM Pirates to handle Fish-Man Island affairs, be using the power of those Pirates to completely tear apart Fish-Man Island's defenses, then declare that the BIGMOM Pirates are taking over Fish-Man Island, and plant the BIGMOM Pirates' Banner?
Fish-Man Island can be said to be an Island quite close to the Marine Sphere of Influence.
Relatively speaking, it is also an Island far from the Sphere of Influence of the Great Pirate in the New World.
However, because of its unique geographical location, over the past ten years, the endless stream of Pirates going to the New World from Fish-Man Island, although bringing a lot of trouble to Fish-Man Island, has also brought about vigorous economic development for Fish-Man Island.
After all, when many Pirate Crews arrive at Fish-Man Island, most of them are alone, and the strength of a single Pirate Crew is simply not enough to pose a Threat to Fish-Man Island. On the contrary, they are afraid of offending Fish-Man Island, because if they are targeted by Fish-Man Island, they are likely to be buried in the Seabed. Therefore, the Pirate Crews that come to Fish-Man Island are relatively well-behaved.
After a long period of development, Fish-Man Island has gradually grown into a ripe Fruit exuding an enticing sweetness.
Now, with Roger becoming the Pirate King, the influx of a large number of Pirates has broken this Balance. After all, a single Pirate Crew may not be able to do anything to Fish-Man Island, but what about ten or a hundred Pirate Crews joining forces?
So, as more and more Pirates gather on Fish-Man Island, Fish-Man Island, this ripe Fruit with little defense and exuding an alluring Flavor, is placed in front of everyone.
When Fish-Man Island reacted, it was already too late. Even if they tried to close the Entrance to Fish-Man Island, it wouldn't work. It would be forcibly breached by Pirates soon after being closed.
It can be said that Fish-Man Island has now become a gluttonous feast for Pirates.
To the point that even Charlotte Linlin, far away in the New World, has set her sights on Fish-Man Island, this Cake that is furthest from her, but incredibly Delicious Food.
For this reason, she also dispatched her Top Executive, Charlotte Katakuri, the most outstanding Work of the Charlotte Family, and hundreds of powerful subordinates to take over this Cake.
From this, it can be seen the degree of importance Charlotte Linlin attaches to this Action.
"Older Brother Katakuri, then after Fish-Man Island is in our hands, what should be done with those Pirates? Kill them all?"
Smoothie looked at Katakuri, the most reliable of all her Older Brothers, and asked.
It can be said that in many Charlotte Expeditions, Katakuri used his Strength to prove his power, and also proved his reliability.
"No need, let's wait and see the Reaction from Dragon Palace City. If they don't send anyone to contact us, then we'll let these Pirates go to Dragon Palace City to give them some Pressure. Afterwards, we'll bring these Pirates under our command. Although they are trash, they are still somewhat valuable trash."
Katakuri said, shifting his Gaze away from Dragon Palace City, and instead looking towards Gyoncorde Plaza not far away.
They are here to take Territory, not to destroy Fish-Man Island.
So, if those guys from Fish-Man Island are sensible, he doesn't mind helping Fish-Man Island solve their troubles. If they are not sensible, he doesn't mind killing the Fish-Man Island royal family, and then just finding a Mermaid to establish a royal family.
After a moment, not waiting for the Dragon Palace City envoy, Katakuri also jumped down from the rooftop and headed towards Gyoncorde Plaza.
Behind him were Crew members whose appearances could not be described as handsome, and could even be described as ugly, but whose Aura was quite strong.
These People were quite conspicuous as they walked, and at first glance, they looked very unapproachable.
On a Street not far from Dragon Palace City, there was a group of Pirates numbering about dozens of People.
They were originally wandering around Dragon Palace City to see if they could pick up a lone Mermaid Beauty, and then help her go to the 'rich Masters' home on the Land to live a good life.
But obviously, their Luck was not good, and they didn't encounter a lost Mermaid Girl. At this time, they were planning to go to Gyoncorde Plaza, perhaps taking advantage of this Opportunity to get in good with the Charlotte Family.
When passing by the fork in the road, they noticed from afar a burly Figure suddenly walking out of Dragon Palace City, and a Figure next to him carrying a Gun on his shoulder.
The leader, a burly Pirate wearing a black eye patch, a red Headband on his head, and holding a Sailor Knife, widened his eyes suddenly when he saw Vistad, and a look of fear quickly appeared in his Pupils, as if he had seen some extremely Terror-inducing Existence.
"Damn it, not only the Big Mom Pirates, but even those guys have set their sights on this place?"
This guy almost immediately took a classic side step, and without even saying hello, quickly slipped into an Alley, his face uncertain.
The other Pirates traveling with him had not yet reacted to his Action, but when they saw the burly Figure coming out of Dragon Palace City, they quickly recognized who it was. Their expressions changed drastically, and they also quickly slipped into the Alley.
"That Man just now, is one of the Top Executives of the Freedom Pirates... Vistad, the Scorching Sun! And the one next to him seems to be Simon Haye, Death!"
"I remember that guy's Bounty, it seems to be over a billion!!!"
"Vistad is 1,239,000,000, and Simon, Death, is 250,000,000! Damn it, both are people we can't afford to offend."
"Since even a Top Executive has been dispatched, then those guys must have already regarded Fish-Man Island as something in their pocket."
"What should we do then? Are we still going to the Square?"
"Go if you're tired of living. Anyway, I'm not planning to get involved in this. Damn it, don't you look at the lineups on both sides? If you go, you won't even know how you died."
"Are we just going to give up like this? I'm so unwilling."
"What's the use of being unwilling? In a fight of that level, if we get grazed, we're dead. Money is a good thing, but you have to have the Life to spend it. Otherwise, it's just a pile of waste paper that's too hard to wipe your Buttocks with.
Anyway, I'm not planning to get involved. What about you guys?"
It can be said that they are considered a small group. This kind of decision about whether to stay or leave definitely requires a vote.
The result came out quickly. Except for one abstention, everyone else chose to leave. Although they are Desperadoes, they are not brainless idiots.
That unwilling Pirate very unwillingly punched the Wall with his Fist, obviously unable to refute his companions' decision.
"Excuse me, can I ask, which direction is Gyoncorde Plaza?"
Just as everyone was planning to leave, suddenly a Sound came from the Alley entrance. Hearing this Sound, everyone in the Alley was stunned, and some even dared not put down their raised feet.
"Th-that way..."
Finally, someone gave directions.
"Oh, thank you."
After the Sound faded away, the People in the Alley dared to move their hands and feet, but all of them had a look of lingering fear on their faces.
Obviously, that simple conversation just now was like a narrow escape from Death for them.
Gyoncorde Plaza.
This is the largest Square on the entire Fish-Man Island, and also one of the most prosperous areas of Fish-Man Island in the past.
The entire Gyoncorde Plaza is wide and flat, surrounded by layers of Rock Layer stacked on top of each other, and there are also Coral Reefs on them. Various Coral Reefs decorate Gyoncorde Plaza as if it were a dreamlike place.
Located in the center of Gyoncorde Plaza is a Coral Reef several meters high.
On the Coral Reef at this time, standing is Hillary, the famous Grand Duchess of Blood of the Blood Pirates, with a Bounty of 232,000,000 Berries.
"Captain, once Dragon Palace City is captured, then you will definitely be able to capture enough Mermaid Girls for a Blood Bath. At that time, you will become the most beautiful Person in the Four Seas!"
"Gurururururu, that's for sure."
Hillary, like a humanoid Orangutan, laughed loudly.
