Pirate: I, the strongest intern of the Roger Pirates
Chapter 271 The Truth
Facing Cobra's question, Luffy really didn't know how to answer, but that's how he is, he only does things according to his own preferences, so he pointed at Cobra and said, "I don't care, I just want to blow you away! I'm a pirate, not a navy! Let the navy do the justice!"
"Pirates?" Now it was King Cobra's turn to be stunned, and asked in confusion, "Are you pirates?"
Seeing that Cobra and Luffy were puzzled by each other, and it could even be said that they were talking about each other, Nami couldn't help but said, "Your own country has become like this now, don't you think about why?"
Cobra took a serious look at the group of pirates in front of him, and finally understood their purpose.
"That is to say, because you are not used to the lives of the people, you plan to trouble me, the king?" King Cobra suddenly laughed and asked Luffy and others.
"Yes, that's it! What's so funny about this?" Luffy said very seriously.
Cobra also put away his smile, and then said very solemnly: "Then please allow me to express my gratitude to you on behalf of my citizens!"
Speaking of which, Cobra bowed to the Straw Hats very solemnly.
Now it's Luffy and the others who are a little baffled, why is this king so unconventional?Shouldn't the guards be called to arrest them at this time?
"The plan is not over yet, so I can't tell you guys! But... I would like to trust you, I wonder if you can agree to keep the secret for me?" Cobra said with a smile when he saw the bewildered faces of Luffy and the others.
Luffy and the others looked at each other, as if there was something else they didn't know?
"Tell me first, what's going on!" Luffy put down his offensive posture and said to Cobra.
So Cobra told Luffy and others about the disappearance of the World Government. The reason why he chose to say it was because he really admired Luffy and others, and he came because they were pirates and could not be spies of the World Government.
In addition, even if the plan is leaked now, it will not cause too much impact, so I said it.
"What? It turns out that the world government is responsible for all this?" Luffy said angrily.
"So what evidence do you have to prove what you said?" Unlike Luffy, Sanji asked beside him.
Cobra smiled and said, "Because I asked Koza to form the rebel army!"
When Cobra said Koza's name, even the calm Sanji was taken aback.
"But why did His Majesty the King form a rebel army? Rebel against himself?" Chopper asked puzzled.
"Because of this, the battle can be controlled within the range we can accept! I think you have seen a lot of people suffering from lack of water along the way, right?" Cobra shook his head with a smile, and said, "But have you seen any dead people?"
Luffy and the others began to recall that they had indeed seen the difficult lives of the people along the way, but they did not see large areas of refugee corpses.
"It's also possible that you have dealt with it in advance!" Sauron on the side said with the greatest malice.
Cobra smiled and didn't explain any more, but continued: "Do you know how I did it? The rebel army gave me information and let me know where the people need help the most, so I deployed in the middle and concentrated the power of the whole country, which was able to keep the people from living. Although it is a bit difficult now, I believe that as long as this period of time passes, we will restore the prosperity of the past!"
Only then did everyone suddenly realize, but Sauron asked again at this time: "Aren't you a member of the world government? Why does Guofu in the world do this to you?"
Cobra smiled wryly, and said, "It's because our kingdom has what the world government needs, that's why they act like this, and it's precisely because we are a member country of the world government, that they didn't cheat on the surface, but did such things in private, and we have no evidence to prove that they did these things!"
"The world government is such a bastard!" Luffy said, picking his nostrils.
At first, he thought that the world government, like the navy, was a righteous existence, and their pirates were evil, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen.
"So what? His Majesty the King is waiting for people from the World Government to leave now?" Nami asked, looking at Cobra.
"That's right! I have quietly leaked the news, I hope they will leave as soon as they get the things!" King Cobra nodded and replied.
"Then why didn't you tell them directly?" Chopper asked curiously.
"I told them directly, they wouldn't believe it! They even thought I was deceiving them, and they would leave only if they got it themselves! That's why I formed a rebel army, staged such a show in the country, and at the same time leaked the location of the treasure!" King Cobra explained.
The Straw Hats were speechless after hearing this, but Sanji and the others could also understand Cobra's difficulties.
"So we shouldn't be looking for you? We should be looking for those people from the world government?" At this moment, Luffy finally understood the whole story.
"No!" Cobra shook his head quickly, and said, "Don't make extra troubles, now we just need to wait for them to get what they want, and we can recover after they leave. If you go to them again, it won't be good if something happens!"
"That's right, Luffy! So what if you defeat those people from the world government? If you can't get what they want, they will send people over again, which is equivalent to prolonging the suffering of the Kingdom of Alabasta!" Nami also hurriedly spoke out to stop Luffy who wanted to mess around.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the king's study.
"What is it?" Cobra asked softly.
"Your Majesty, Princess Wei Wei is back!" The guard outside the door said loudly.
"Huh? Why did Wei Wei come back at this time? Did something unexpected happen to the rebel army?" Cobra was startled, got up quickly, and said to Luffy and the others: "If you don't mind, you can take a rest in the palace, I have something to deal with now!"
Speaking of which, Cobra left the study directly and went to the main hall, and the curious Luffy and others also followed Cobra.
Soon, in the main hall, Lu Fei saw Princess Wei Wei, and Princess Wei Wei naturally recognized Lu Fei and the others.
"Why are you here? Bell, Sister Xue, protect the father!" The first time he saw Luffy and the others, Wei Wei was shocked, and immediately made preparations for the battle, and asked Bell and his bodyguard Dong Xue, who sent him over, to protect Cobra's safety.
"Huh?" Cobra, Luffy and the others were confused.
At the headquarters of the rebel army, Wei Wei used a windbreaker to hide her appearance, so Lu Fei and others did not recognize Wei Wei, but Wei Wei recognized Lu Fei and others. She thought that Lu Fei and others were spies sent by the World Government.
But Bell and Dongxue would not hesitate, so after Wei Wei gave the order, they immediately protected King Cobra, and Dongxue even planned to attack Luffy and others.
"Wait... Dongxue, don't do anything yet!" King Cobra stood up from behind Bell, stopped Dongxue, and then asked Weiwei: "What happened? Weiwei!"
"Father, they are probably members of the World Government! I have seen them at the headquarters of the rebel army before! They are the ones who want to persuade Kosha to directly attack the palace!" Wei Wei replied loudly.
Cobra was taken aback, looked at Luffy, and asked, "Aren't you... pirates?"
"We are indeed pirates, and we are definitely not spies of the world government! Did your highness misunderstand something?" Nami said immediately: "We did go to the headquarters of the rebel army, but we didn't know the truth at that time, so we wanted to come here..."
Cobra was silent for a while, and then said: "Although I really want to believe what you say, but...you should know what this plan means to our country, so...I hope you can stay in the palace during this period of time, what do you think?"
Cobra's words were already very embarrassing, so Nami and the others hurriedly agreed.
After hearing Luffy's agreement, Cobra breathed a sigh of relief, and asked Wei Wei, "Why are you here? Aren't you at Koza's side? Could something have happened there?"
Shaking his head slightly, he said: "No, the leader has already brought all the rebels to the vicinity of the rainy land. When the teacher brings the people from the World Government there tomorrow morning, everyone will know the truth of the matter. I can't wait, so I beg Bell to bring me back!"
"Don't worry, with your teacher on board, there will be no accidents!" Cobra said with a smile.
And Lu Fei and others have been looking at Wei Wei curiously. They always feel that this person is very familiar, but they are sure that they have never seen Wei Wei in the headquarters of the rebel army.
At this moment, the entire palace suddenly shook, and Usopp was so scared that he thought it was an earthquake.
"What's going on?" The guards immediately protected King Cobra and Princess Weiwei, and Dong Xue also returned to Weiwei's side, ready to defend at any time.
"It should be at the mausoleum! Bell, go to Icarem and ask if the people at the mausoleum have all moved away!" King Cobra immediately judged the cause of the vibration, and said to Bell who was beside him.
"No, Your Majesty! I am the only one who has the ability to fly. I must stay by your side and Her Royal Highness, so that no matter what happens, I can guarantee that I will rescue you as soon as possible!" Bell shook his head and said in refusal.
"Idiot! I'm in the palace, there are so many guards here, and Dongxue is here, how could something go wrong!? But if the people over there haven't been moved away, if something goes wrong, they won't even be able to escape!" Cobra immediately shouted at Bell.
But Bell didn't leave no matter what King Cobra said, and Cobra was so angry that he wanted to beat someone.
Fortunately, soldiers soon came to report that all the people at the mausoleum had been evacuated. Just in case, Icarem even expanded the scope of evacuation without authorization.
"Pirates?" Now it was King Cobra's turn to be stunned, and asked in confusion, "Are you pirates?"
Seeing that Cobra and Luffy were puzzled by each other, and it could even be said that they were talking about each other, Nami couldn't help but said, "Your own country has become like this now, don't you think about why?"
