Gol D. Roger: "Rocks has already started the selection process secretly..."

Rocks D. Gibeck: "Who the hell is sneaking around?! If you want to choose, choose. If not, don't talk nonsense!!"

Gol D. Roger: "Alright! I choose D too! I'll keep pace with you! We rise and fall together!"

Shiki: "Choose D! No matter if he's right or not, just follow the formation!"

Rocks D. Gibeck: "You two bastards!! Don't think I don't know what's going on in your mind!!"

Seeing that Roger and Shiqi had chosen the same thing as him, Rocks was very angry~~~

Now the three of them have only received the reward of resurrection, but have not received any abilities provided by the viewing system~~~

The three of them can be said to be moving forward in tandem...

If Rocks could get another reward, then he might have the power to control Roger and Shiki!!!

And Roger and Shiqi followed him in making their choices, clearly targeting him...!!

Kozuki Oden: "What...! Then is option D correct?"

Charlotte Lingling: "In my opinion, option D might actually be the answer!!"

Edward Newgate: "Gulala...!!! Marriage alliances are indeed Lingling's forte!!"

Jack: "Then why not C?"

Quinn: "You idiot! I want you to follow Auntie, are you willing?"

Charlotte Lingling: "Quinn, you're looking for death!!"

Quinn: "Ahem..."

Vinsmoke Sanji: "Choose E! Isn't option E also quite unreasonable?"

Tony Tony Chopper: "Huh? Now the reason for the selection is already unreasonable?"

Vinsmoke Sanji: "Yeah! Hurry up and choose E! There's definitely a chance of 5.7 or !!"

Usopp: "If we talk about unreasonableness, then B is the most unreasonable~~~"

Trafalgar Law: "B is not unreasonable, B is impossible..."

As the countdown for answering the questions ended, the red frame video continued to play~~~

[Hearing Charlotte Lingling's question, all the Charlotte Family leaders present were stunned!]

[Obviously, they didn't expect Charlotte Linling to not immediately fight back this time...]

Charlotte Perospero said flatteringly, "Mom!! Those Straw Hat Pirates are so ignorant!! They just gained some fame at Marineford, and now they don't even know their own names!!! How dare they covet Mom's treasure!!! Lick~~~"

[As the eldest brother of the Charlotte family, Perospero's greatest quality is flattery~~~]

[He was very clever. His words only served to boost his own morale, but he didn't make any plans for Charlotte Linling.]

[This kind of talk sounds nice, but it's useless...]

At this time, Charlotte Katakuri said, "Mom, I've carefully studied the information about the Straw Hat Pirates. Even two years ago, their strength surpassed that of any of the Four Emperors. Now their strength is probably even stronger than you can imagine!"

Hearing this, Charlotte Lingling narrowed her eyes slightly, a thoughtful look on her face.

Chapter 186 Is there a difference between the Wan Guo government and the World Government? (Subscribe!)

Charlotte Linlin still takes Katakuri's opinions very seriously~~~

[After all, in this family, Charlotte Linlin has always been fond of Katakuri, the second oldest...]

"Mom!! Actually, if the Straw Hat Pirates just want to copy the contents of the three historical texts, then it's fine to give them that! Besides, Straw Hat Luffy mentioned that he's not only willing to pay 1 million berries, but he'll also share the contents of the three historical texts with us. That's pretty sincere!"

Seeing that Charlotte Linlin was still hesitant, Katakuri continued to explain.

[He is the god of war of the entire Charlotte family and a hero in the eyes of all his brothers and sisters! ! ! ]

[His status in the eyes of his brothers and sisters is even higher than that of his eldest brother Perospero...]

[The reason why he is so popular in the family is not only because of his extraordinary strength, but more importantly, he can think calmly about everything and truly cares about the family! ! ]

[Take this matter at hand, for example. Katakuri wouldn't consider agreeing to the Straw Hat Pirates' conditions as giving in to them... On the contrary, he feels the Straw Hat Pirates have given Charlotte Linlin enough respect...]

[If you still don't appreciate it, the consequences will probably be war! !]

[By then... I wonder how many of you brothers and sisters will die~~~]

Charlotte Brulee immediately chimed in, "Yeah, Mom! Straw Hat Luffy is so sensible and sweet-talking. The conditions he offered are really sincere~~~"

After thinking for a while, Charlotte Linlin called Den Den Mushi again and said, "Straw Hat, I agree to your terms!! You... your style is really different from the other Four Emperors! Since you are so sincere, I can't let others say I'm stingy~~~"

"We're having a party tonight on Cake Island. I'll treat you to a tea party of the highest standard!"

[After all, she is one of the Four Emperors, so Charlotte Linlin still cares a lot about her reputation~~~]

【Especially with a force like the Straw Hat Pirates, it's better to make friends than to make enemies...!!】

Monkey D. Luffy: "Huh~? The treatment we receive over there is completely different from the treatment we receive here..."

Kid Eustace: "Haha!! In this world, strength always rules!"

Capone Bege: "When your strength is strong enough to make the Four Emperors afraid, even the unreasonable Four Emperors will be reasonable in front of you~~~"

Gion: "It's a very real scene...!! I have no doubt about the legitimacy of the situation shown in the red-framed video...!"

Charlotte Lingling: "Nonsense! I don't doubt it myself, why do I need you to tell me...?"

"Ahahaha!! Auntie, it's so great to hear you say that!!"

[After receiving Charlotte Linlin's reply, Luffy was in a good mood~~~]

This result is good for both parties~~~

"Captain Luffy, I'll have the Book lead the way. Your Thousand Sunny just needs to follow the Book to reach Cake Island."

"As for me, I will be here to explain the scenery along the way and the characteristics of each island in our Wan Guo~~"

Charlotte Mondor bowed respectfully to Luffy, looking very polite in his formal attire...

【"Then thank you~~" Luffy nodded with a smile. 】

The Thousand Sunny, following the Book, travels towards Cake Island in the unique currents of the Totland Sea.

Charlotte Mondor is quite capable. She even stopped at two islands along the way to let the Straw Hat Pirates experience the cultural characteristics of the world.

[Luffy noticed that there are many chess soldiers on every island in the Wano Country~~~]

"Could this be the product of the Childlike Fun Fruit?" Nami pointed at a chess soldier standing guard, her face furrowed in confusion.

Following Nami's gaze, Mondor immediately introduced, "Respected Lady Nami, those are the chess soldiers. It was Mom who gave the chess pieces souls through the Soul-Soul Fruit, allowing them to have life. Their lives were given by Mom, so these chess soldiers are very loyal to Mom!!"

"I see..."

Hongfen pouted softly, and Nami nodded in sudden realization, "The Soul-Soul Fruit is truly useful~~"

[Using the power of the fruit, you can form your own army. This fruit is really powerful~~~]

"Big Mom alone can maintain law and order on the entire island. How convenient is that? Do the people living here have to pay protection fees or something?" Luffy asked curiously while shopping.

The island they were on was Nut Island. Luffy discovered that aside from its unique shape and building materials, the lives of the people on this island were no different from those on other islands in the sea.

[To put it bluntly, with so many islands here, it's like a superpower. Each island is equivalent to a city. The cities are governed by the Charlotte family's cadres, but at the same time, they must accept the supreme coordination of Charlotte Lingling...]

"Protection money?"

Hearing this, Mondor was stunned for a moment, then laughed, "No need! In our Wan Nation, people living here don't have to pay any money. However, every six months, all residents on the island must give one month of their lives to Mom."

Sengoku: "See? This is what it's like under pirate rule! Every six months, you have to give up a month of your life. How many years can you live!!!"

Suddenly seeing this scene on the screen, Zhan Guo was overjoyed and quickly took the opportunity to criticize the world government and navy...

Charlotte Lingling: "How many years?? You old dog from the Warring States Period! Can't you do the math??? A normal person can live to sixty or seventy, right?!"

Sora: "Haha!!! No matter how many decades you live, you're the one who sucked the lifespans of all the civilians in the Totland Sea. Isn't that true?!?"

Charlotte Lingling: "I won't change my last name or last name!! I've done it, so what?!"

Sora: "Haha...!! Just admit it!"

Sengoku: "The whole world is watching!!! I don't know what those people who advocate for the Four Emperors are thinking. Now open your eyes and see what a horrible life the civilians are living under the rule of pirates!"

Edward Newgate: "Gulalaala...!! If the Revolutionary Army said that, I would accept it! How dare your world's government and navy say such things?!"

Gol D. Roger: "Hahahaha!!! They don't even do anything shameful!!"

Shiki: "Jiehahahahaha......!!"

【"life!!!?"】

Upon hearing that civilians here need to hand in their lifespans on time, Nami's eyes widened in shock.

[Several other people also had unhappy expressions on their faces...]

Mondor immediately noticed the change in the Straw Hat Pirates' moods and quickly explained with a smile, "Don't be surprised, my dear guests. Mother is the user of the Soul-Soul Fruit. To create things like the living chess soldiers, city cleaners, and city connectors, she consumes soul power, or what's known as her lifespan."

"In fact, the lifespans paid by those living in Wan Guo are equivalent to the protection fees paid by other factions' territories!" Charlotte Mondor explained.

Usopp calculated to himself, "If it happens every six months... then that means two months of lifespan are lost each year. If a person lives to 1... then that's equivalent to only 60 years of lifespan!"

"Oh my god! That means I'm going to lose ten years of my life...!" Chopper's face showed shock~~~

Mondor continued to explain, "It's actually not that bad. At least with Mom, they don't have to worry about any danger. Everyone can live in peace until old age."

Buggy nodded. "That makes sense. Big Mom may collect souls, but she does provide protection. On our journey, we saw some countries paying huge sums of money to the World Government every year. Not only are the civilians struggling to survive, but the protection the World Government provides is merely lip service."

Charlotte Mondor: "What Buggy said over there is absolutely right! Although Mommy takes the lives of civilians, Mommy can really guarantee the safety of the people of Totland!! Your world government collects the gold from the sky, but do the civilians of your allied countries live a peaceful and stable life? "

Charlotte Perospero: "What are you thinking? Just looking at the World Government member states shown in the white-framed and red-framed videos, how many of these countries have their civilians protected? Aren't they still relying on their own national armies for protection?"

Marco: "Yeah! If the king of those countries is a bastard, like Valpo, then the common people of that country are really unlucky!!!"

Jesus Bu: "Even a good king like Cobra can't stop powerful pirates from doing evil in their country!!"

Sengoku: "You pirates, stop lying with your eyes open!!! Didn't the World Government send the navy to protect the security of these countries?"

Nami: "The navy is indeed fulfilling its duty to protect these countries. But basically, they only send warships after something happens! But what's the point of such delayed justice?"

Nami is deeply touched by this "delayed justice"~~~

What’s more, the people of the Mida Islands didn’t even get any “belated justice”!! It was Luffy who saved them…!!!

Ben Beckman: "Justice delayed... well said! When the navy sends warships to a country in trouble, the local civilians have already been tortured for a long time! And even if the navy sends warships to solve the local problem, after the navy leaves, the local civilians will sooner or later be harmed by other pirates and bandits~~~"

Crane: "What's going on??? You pirates have the nerve to say this?? If you weren't harming civilians, would our navy need to do this!!!"

Gol D. Roger: "Haha! Stop confusing us! Pirate groups like the Big Mom Pirates, even though they're called pirates, are actually considered a nation! What's the difference between what they do and what the World Government does? They're even less ruthless than what your World Government does!!"

Kozuki Oden: "Captain Roger is right! Those evil pirates are indeed hateful, but the Whitebeard Pirates led by Big Brother Whitebeard have maintained peace in their area and only collected a certain amount of protection money from the civilians in their jurisdiction. They have already been the saviors of many people!"

Charlotte Linlin: "Navy! Stop spouting those useless words! The fact is... the civilians in my jurisdiction haven't been attacked by pirates in over twenty years! And yet, those member states under your World Government are still frequently harmed by pirates, and even persecuted by the local nobles!"

【Luffy has been listening, he did not express any opinion on this...】

[In his opinion, the way Auntie collected lifespans was definitely wrong!]

[But as Mondor said, this is no different from other forces collecting protection fees~~]
