The chaotic Kingdom of Oycot was a place where the entire population seemed to be serving these damned nobles and a tyrannical king, suffering immensely.
The pirate crew that attacked the Kingdom of Oicot was called the Black Hand Pirates, and they were once under the command of Golden Lion Shiki.
During the period before and after Shiki the Golden Lion escaped from Impel Down, the Black Hand Pirates took advantage of the chaos to destroy the Kingdom of Oicot in the East Blue.
Subsequently, the Black Hand Pirates surprisingly left their vice-captain, Stanks, behind and brought the half-dead Kingdom of Oicot under their control.
……
Two days later.
When Norton arrived in the Kingdom of Oycott, the first place he naturally visited was the place where he had once lived.
What we saw was this scene of utter devastation.
"Fuck..."
Norton gritted his teeth, clenched his fist, and turned to walk towards a gaunt man who was slumped against the wall.
[Ding! An ad has been refreshed. Please watch it within ten minutes, or it will be invalid.]
Just as Norton was about to ask a question, he heard the long-lost system notification sound.
Chapter 27 is so frustrating!
"Hey! System, I thought you'd stopped refreshing and become invisible! Your presence is so weak!"
[Ding! You're blaming me for not changing the map? Or is it that your load is too light and you need to increase it a hundredfold?]
"Does this even have anything to do with whether I change the map or not? Forget about doubling the payout..."
[Ding! Of course!]
Row!
You're the system, you're in charge!
Let's take a look first! It's a free reward anyway, might as well take it.
[Ding! Advertisement begins, lasting one minute.]
[Ding! This is a world dominated by online games. The rise of online games has replaced real life. People have transferred their entire economic activities from reality to the virtual world. Love, hate, and grudges all originate in online games...]
Goodness, this ad has completely baffled Norton.
Because the level of technological advancement in this advertising world has completely exceeded Norton's understanding.
After reading it, he fantasized in his mind that if he had time to take a trip to this world and come back with one or two aircraft carriers, wouldn't he be able to dominate the world?
But he knew about this, and he only thought about it.
Even if he could bring back two ships, let alone one, no one would know how to operate them.
On the contrary, the individual combat suits and individual mechs in that world can be piloted independently.
As for the online games based on that world, Norton didn't find anything particularly interesting after watching them.
98% of online games are real virtual games; Norton read a lot of similar online game novels in his previous life.
So aside from some curiosity, I had no other thoughts.
After the one-minute video finished playing, the "Enter" option also appeared after the advertisement.
But Norton ignored it; he was only concerned with the reward after watching the ad.
A familiar treasure chest appeared, and upon opening it, a dazzling golden light shone forth, filling one with excitement and anticipation.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained three Healing Pills, which have been stored in your personal space. These Healing Pills can heal any injury, no matter how severe, in a short time as long as you are not dead!]
After the golden light and treasure chest disappeared, three golden pills appeared and automatically entered the personal space.
At the same time, Norton also sensed that someone was watching him nearby, and not just one person.
He landed in a corner of this dilapidated town, on the very edge of an absolute slum.
Norton looked in the direction of the gaze and saw several ragged, emaciated, and pale-faced poor people around him.
They stared intently at the basket of oranges in front of Norton, their eyes filled with greed!
However, Norton was tall and imposing, well-dressed, and his eyes revealed a hint of fear.
They were afraid, terrified that this was another nobleman coming to amuse them.
In the end, if things go wrong, you might even get beaten up.
"Ugh……"
Norton sighed, grabbed an orange, and threw it at the group.
Those people hurriedly caught the oranges, their eyes filled with disbelief and deep fear.
"Here's food for you, don't be afraid," Norton said, trying to soften his voice.
After a couple of seconds of stunned silence, the group devoured the food like starving ghosts, without even bothering to eat properly.
The sweet scent of oranges quickly spread, and people nearby came over, glancing at the group and then at Norton, their eyes filled with eager anticipation.
"You can have all these oranges, but you can't fight each other or steal them. Think about your family and friends, and think about those rich people; they're probably hoping you'll fight each other!"
Norton kicked over the orange basket, scattering the bright oranges all over the ground, which only made the people's eyes more drawn to them.
Norton's gaze swept across their faces before he slowly stepped aside.
Seeing this, everyone's mouths watered, but they restrained themselves from eating.
At this moment, a gaunt middle-aged man wearing a tattered suit came out, and everyone consciously made way for him.
The man glanced at the oranges scattered on the ground, then looked at Norton and said, "State your purpose! No matter how poor or hungry we are, we will not let ourselves be played with again!"
"Me?" Norton pointed to himself, a cold glint in his eyes. "I've come back for revenge! I'll hunt down every last member of the Black Hand Pirates who destroyed my homeland!!!"
"Homeland? Wait, who are you..."
From the crowd, a gaunt old man with purple hair stepped forward, looking at Norton with surprise in his eyes, and said, "Are you little Norton from the Ranch Doyle family?"
Norton was taken aback by what he heard, and looked at the old man with a puzzled expression, trying hard to recall his past memories.
Unfortunately, Norton himself was quite young when he transmigrated, so many of his memories were very vague.
"Don't you recognize me? I'm Dusen, the owner of the shop across from your house! When you were little, you often came to my shop to get candy, and then your parents would pay for it. It's just a pity... your parents... sigh..."
At this point, Dusen's lips trembled, and he could no longer continue.
“Speaking of the store… I do have a vague memory of it…” A flash of inspiration struck Norton, and he caught a glimpse of the store and Dusen in his memory.
"Since you're one of us, go ahead! Don't steal anything!" The man in the suit breathed a sigh of relief and waved his hand.
Those who were already starving and thirsty immediately swarmed forward and orderly picked up oranges to eat.
“Norton, it’s so good to see you’re still alive! What did you just say? You’re going to get revenge?” Dusen and the man in the suit pulled Norton aside.
Norton nodded without hesitation: "Yes! That's why I need information! Does Grandpa Dusen have any?"
The two of them stared intently into Norton's eyes for a long time before letting out a sigh in unison.
They had already seen the determination in Norton's eyes.
I just don't know how capable this child is.
The man in the clothes stroked his chin and pondered for a while before slowly saying, "Kid... are you sure you have enough strength to deal with them? I need you to prove it."
"Isn't that simple?"
Norton looked around, then walked to a pile of ruins and swung his fist, which was as big as a sandbag, at it!
"Don't……"
"stop!"
The two were shocked to see this, but it was too late to stop Norton.
boom--
With one punch, the broken wall in front of Norton shattered, revealing what lay behind it.
"What's wrong?" Norton withdrew his hand and looked back with a blank expression.
"what……"
A startled cry suddenly rang out, making Norton jump and quickly look in the direction of the sound.
It would have been better if I hadn't looked; once I did, I immediately turned around in embarrassment.
It turned out that what Norton had punched and smashed was a wall in the public toilet.
The one who exclaimed in surprise was a gaunt woman!
"Pah! You scoundrel..."
Seeing so many people staring at her, the woman cursed and ran away after pulling up her pants.
Society is dead...
Norton looked speechlessly at Dusen and the man in the suit; his toes could have dug a three-bedroom apartment out of his shoes.
Chapter 28 Target Him
After a few seconds of silence, Norton quickly turned around and laughed loudly as if nothing had happened: "Hahaha... Hahaha... Aren't I powerful!"
The two of them quickly turned around and nodded repeatedly.
A few minutes later, Dusen and Raul, the man in the tattered suit, led Norton slowly into a relatively intact room and began to tell him about the situation there.
The current king of the Kingdom of Oicot is Stanks, the vice-captain of Black Hand. He rarely leaves the palace, and even when he does, he is always accompanied and protected by a large number of soldiers.
The royal army of the Kingdom of Oycott numbers approximately two thousand men.
Dusen and his team didn't know much about their specific strength.
However, from a vanity standpoint, the royal army repelled two pirate attacks.
This was even more powerful than the old Kingdom of Oycot, which also reassured the surviving nobles and people.
"Are these nearly two thousand people all under King Stancus's command, or are there any who could be turned?" Norton continued to ask after hearing all the information.
