One Piece: King of the World from White Town

Anyway, as long as the final transaction result is satisfactory to both parties, that's fine.

Abel made a lot of money and the other party did not suffer any loss.

And there is a high probability that there are still some hidden items that have not been taken out.

After all, after this transaction, Abel discovered that these natives were not stupid at all, but very smart.

It’s just that his emotional intelligence is relatively low, and he often says whatever he wants.

The summary is that it is not smooth enough.

This is a very normal thing.

If these natives were as sophisticated and smooth in their speech and actions as the humans outside, he would think that there must be something wrong.

With all his gains, Abel left by boat again.

But I have marked it on the nautical chart, maybe I will come back again in the future.

As for whether the fight between the local natives and the alien strange birds will have an outcome by then, it is unknown.

Then there were several more days of sailing.

Abel finally saw the target island of this time, Cinderella.

This is a large island with three countries located on it, namely the Kingdom of Klus, the Kingdom of Warm Sun and the Kingdom of Cold Moon.

The Kingdom of Cruz is a member of the World Government and is protected by the navy, but it has to pay a huge amount of heavenly gold every year, causing the people to suffer.

The Warm Sun Kingdom and the Cold Moon Kingdom are not members of the World Government.

It’s just that due to some reasons, the two countries have been at war for many years, so the people are living in poverty, even worse than the Kingdom of Klus.

However, whenever the Kingdom of Klus wanted to take the opportunity to attack and annex one of the two countries, the Kingdom of Warm Sun and the Kingdom of Cold Moon would always quickly unite to fight against the more powerful Kingdom of Klus.

In addition, the island has a good geographical location, and many ships pass by every day.

So until now, these three countries are still standing.

When Abel learned about the complicated situation on Sandora Island, he realized that it would be a good place to sell arms.

But it is also very difficult.

According to the intelligence he obtained, all the arms and weapons used by the three countries on this island were contraband that had flowed out from within the navy!

Colonel Rhino of the 101st Navy Branch is the biggest arms dealer in this sea area.

This rhino colonel always finds various excuses and reasons to "scrap" the weapons allocated to the branch base navy, which actually means selling them.

Then he would label those disobedient guys as pirates or criminals to make up for his own achievements.

Then they asked their superiors for financial and weapons assistance.

Because this guy's achievements are so dazzling, and everything has been arranged with the higher-ups, he is becoming more and more arrogant, and is almost ready to put this shady business out in the open.

Not afraid of being reported.

For example, the Warm Sun Kingdom and the Cold Moon Kingdom did not give him face at the beginning, and the price of not purchasing arms from him was that a large number of pirates would come ashore to attack every day.

Even though the navy was standing right next to them, they turned a blind eye and even laughed and commented.

But what can be done?

After all, they are not members of the World Government, and the Navy has no obligation to protect their two countries.

In desperation, both the Warm Sun Kingdom and the Cold Moon Kingdom paid a heavy price, gave gifts, and promised to purchase arms from Colonel Rhino in the future before the matter was settled.

Since then, although there are still pirates who occasionally come to cause trouble, there has never been a case of pirates coming together to cause damage.

Anyone with eyes can see what is going on.

The Kingdom of Klus was very sensible and cooperated from beginning to end.

So Colonel Rhino and the Kingdom of Klus have always been very close, and it is unknown what kind of agreement they have reached in secret.

Abel was wondering whether he should just kill this Rhino Colonel first.

But if this happens, things will get out of hand.

There is no way the Navy will sit idly by and watch this happen.

He is a naval colonel. Even though he is only a colonel of a branch, it is not a low title.

By then, Doflamingo would have to recruit him back immediately, not to mention selling arms.

Now is still the honeymoon period between Doflamingo and the World Government, and Doflamingo certainly does not want to have a conflict with the navy at this time.

Chapter 400: Annexation and Big Pie

When approaching the port, Abel's ship had already raised its flag.

Having just arrived at a place, he still wanted to understand the situation before taking action.

Even if Colonel Rhino must die, perhaps he could be killed in another way and then the focus could be shifted to someone else.

So Abel took Baby-5 and Dabai directly to the island.

"If we can deal with these three countries, we will have completely opened up the early stages. I don't know how those two guys are progressing."

Abel was not concerned about Diamante and Serka, but was eager to watch the show.

He had a hunch that there would be wine and stories when he returned.

It depends on who the unlucky guy is.

"First find a place to stay, and the rest of you spread out and send me all the information you can gather without missing a single bit."

"Yes, Lord Abel!"

……

At this time in the Kingdom of Klus, the king was holding a grand banquet and summoned many beautiful women to sing and dance, just to welcome the arrival of one person.

"Sure enough, every time I come to Xianduolai, your place is the most worry-free and comfortable!"

"Colonel Rhino, you are too kind. Your navy is fighting against those vicious and brutal pirates every day to protect innocent people. It is really hard work. I deserve this little consolation."

"As expected of the King, your words are always sweet. But if you think you can get rid of me with just a meal like this, you are probably dreaming!"

Colonel Rhino suddenly grinned and pushed the woman next to him away.

"Let me be frank. Do you want to buy this batch of arms or not?"

The king waved his hand and asked everyone else to leave. Then his face darkened. "Three months ago, I just purchased a batch of arms from you. Have you forgotten?"

"Tsk, that's all ancient history. Did you eat yesterday and not today? Don't use this excuse to fool me."

"Rhino! Am I trying to evade you, or are you treating me like a fool over and over again?!"

"Old man, I think you are tired of living."

"Heh, three years ago you promised me that you would help me annex Lengyue and Nuanyang, so I helped you fill the big hole after your failed arms smuggling, but what was the result? Every time you forced me to buy arms from you under the banner of helping me accumulate strength."

"Colonel Rhino, everyone's patience has its limits. If you still don't let me see your sincerity, then don't blame me for fighting to the death with you."

"Do you really think that now that everything has been arranged, all the past events will disappear into thin air?"

The king slammed the armrest of the throne, demonstrating the royal majesty like a textbook.

Even Colonel Rhino felt a lot of pressure.

"This old guy is serious... Should we give him a hand right here and now..."

"No, if the old man dares to meet me alone, he must have a backup plan."

"Do you really want to cut off your own financial resources?"

The rhino frowned and began to weigh the pros and cons, and the surroundings suddenly became extremely quiet.

Back then, he did say that and promised to help the Kingdom of Klus annex the other two countries.

But after overcoming the difficulties, he also sold arms to the Warm Sun Kingdom and the Leng Yue Kingdom.

And unlike the Kingdom of Klus, these two countries have been fighting each other for years, and the daily consumption of arms is a huge number.

So having tasted the sweetness, he naturally forgot all about his previous promises.

If he really helps the Kingdom of Klus annex the other two countries and there is no war, who will he sell his arms to?

"This old guy really gave me a difficult problem."

Colonel Rhino suddenly smiled heartily, "How could I forget the help the King has given me?"

"It's just that the military strength of the Warm Sun Kingdom and the Cold Moon Kingdom is not weak. In a one-on-one situation, they are definitely no match for the Kingdom of Klus. But once a war breaks out, the two countries will quickly unite together. They really should not be underestimated."

The king was no longer convinced and said expressionlessly: "I can still keep this batch of arms, but I want to see your sincerity and the actions of the navy."

"I know those two countries purchased large quantities of arms from you, so you are reluctant to give up this little bit of profit."

"But we have to take a long-term view. The Kingdom of Krus is a member of the World Government and a country with considerable status in the South China Sea."

"From what I know, many countries are still at war. Doesn't Colonel Rhino only have his eyes on this small piece of land in Cinderella? Doesn't he want to sell arms to other places? Sell them to the entire South China Sea?"

Colonel Rhino's eyes widened suddenly, shocked by the blueprint described by the other party.

Indeed, he initially just wanted to use this method to make money for himself.

But human greed always grows endlessly.

With all this, I want more.

Moreover, with the help of his wealth, he did hook up with a big shot and was able to get more arms.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have come here again three months later and forced us to buy or sell.

They mainly rely on the Warm Sun Kingdom and the Cold Moon Kingdom, and are no longer able to digest what he brought back this time.

So in order to continue to cling to that big shot, it has become necessary to open up new markets.

It turned out that the old man gave him a big surprise!

"Yes, as long as I use their connections, I can sell the remaining arms to other countries."

"By then, I will definitely be more favored by that Lord, and I will be able to get more goods. If this continues, the entire South China Sea will tremble under the feet of my rhino!"

Rhino was so excited that he slammed the table and stood up. "I will go back and gather people now. Those two annoying kingdoms are doomed. No one can stop me, Rhino, from saying this!"

"Okay, Colonel Rhino, if there's anything you need my cooperation with, just let me know."

"Just remember what you said, otherwise..."

"Then I would like to congratulate Colonel Rhino in advance on his business spreading across the South China Sea."

"Hahaha!"

After Colonel Rhino left, the King of Klus could not help but sneer.

"A small colonel wants to get involved in the arms business of the entire South China Sea. He will die without knowing why."

"But this guy is also a bastard who won't release the eagle until he sees the rabbit. After annexing the two surrounding countries, we still have to give him a little sweet taste first to stabilize him."

"Then find an opportunity to kill this guy and let him know that some people's money is not something he can touch."

The king had long been dissatisfied with Colonel Rhino. If he had not wanted to force this guy to take action, he would not have made such a big promise.

Now I have finally lured the other party into taking the bait.

But this does not mean that the matter has ended.

Chapter 401: God-given Opportunity

Abel stayed in the room, checking the intelligence collected by his men.

Well, basically nothing useful.

Just when he was at a loss and couldn't find a good entry point, good news came to his face one after another.

First, the Warm Sun Kingdom and the Leng Yue Kingdom were attacked by unidentified people, who detonated the important warehouses where the two countries stored their munitions.

Then, a large number of pirates who got the news from somewhere landed in Cinderella, targeting these two countries.
