However, Li Zhong had just saved so many people, and Fisher Tiger really couldn't bring himself to refuse.
I could only silently say in my heart: "I want to be a Shichibukai... Will the World Government agree?"
What I mean is that as a reward for you saving me and so many slaves behind me, I am willing to follow your arrangements, but if the world government does not agree, then I will not do anything extra to make the world government trust me.
For example, apologizing to the Celestial Dragons and selling out the slaves that he rescued.
He was not surprised at Li Zhong's ability to read minds. After all, there was someone in Longgong City who had a similar ability.
"Just agree to it, and leave the rest to me. After becoming one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, you don't have to do anything. If the World Government gives you messed up orders, just refuse them. If they want to hold you accountable, let them come to me directly!" Li Zhong said with a smile.
Li Zhong not only wants to disgust the World Government with the selection of personnel, but also wants to smear the World Government in various other aspects.
Fisher Tiger's side was taken care of. Li Zhong used his Observation Haki to plan an escape route for him and asked him to settle the slaves on this ship first. He would contact him again in a few days regarding the matter of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
Li Zhong left his Den Den Mushi number to Fisher Tiger.
The coverage range of Li Zhong's [Ba Liu·Monitoring the World] is only 30 kilometers, but it is a full coverage monitoring in a spherical state.
If Li Zhong wants, he can change his way of perception. He can use his observation Haki as a radar to shoot out a line, then move in a circle and sweep around.
In this case, Li Zhong's perception can reach a terrifying 300 kilometers!
This distance is almost equivalent to being able to feel Datong, Shanxi from Beijing!
Of course, if you choose this way of perception, what you perceive will not be very clear. At most, you can use it to perceive the terrain and the number of lives. Don't even think about reading lips through the mouth shapes of people during a riot like you did in the holy land before.
Now that this problem has been solved, Li Zhong should go and solve the problem with the Five Elder Stars.
.
.
.
The next day, early in the morning.
All kinds of wailing and angry sounds spread throughout the holy land.
The celestial dragons were no longer wearing their bubble hair at this moment, because they were receiving treatment from these doctors.
Although the Celestial Dragons have powerful bloodlines and are very resistant to blows, they are unable to make good use of their innate advantages due to their lack of exercise. Although no Celestial Dragons died in last night's fire, many were burned because they were fast asleep and did not sense the fire.
With the World Government’s medical technology, these Celestial Dragons probably won’t even be left with a scar from such a minor injury.
However, the treatment will still be painful.
Most people should have experienced burns and blisters. Burns are already painful, let alone burns. These pampered celestial dragons have never experienced such a scene. All kinds of screams and curses are about to turn the holy land into a filthy place.
And those powerful celestial dragons who were not hurt in last night's fire were just... watching the joke.
For those who pursue great strength, all kinds of hard training are commonplace. Burns? They have suffered all kinds of broken bones and tendons countless times during their training!
Such a minor injury revealed such an ugly appearance. They were really ashamed to be associated with these trash!
After taking a look at the wailing celestial dragons in the distance, Li Zhong continued walking towards the residence of Saint Satan.
He has an appointment with the Five Elders today and has something to do, so let these idiots live a few more days.
In the new residence of Saint Satan, the Five Elder Stars gathered here again.
They have almost arranged Li Zhong's military rank. Logically, Li Zhong should go to the Navy Headquarters to report on his work next.
The things that needed to be discussed previously have almost been discussed, and the Five Elders really couldn't think of what else needed all five of them to come together.
Although they didn't understand why, through their previous interactions, the Five Elders knew that Li Zhong was not a person who liked to waste his or other people's time. If he wanted the Five Elders to come together, there must be a need for them to come together.
And Li Zhong did not let the Five Elders wait any longer.
After entering the room, he went straight to the point and explained what he was going to do.
"My Lords, I want to recommend someone to be one of the Shichibukai. The other party has agreed. All you need is a nod from your side."
...So fast?!
The Five Elders were stunned for half a second.
From the time when the Five Elders gave Li Zhong the task of selecting the Seven Warlords of the Sea, it has been no more than a month. During this period, Li Zhong has been in the holy land of Mary Joaquin and has never gone out.
How did he find a powerful pirate willing to serve as one of the Shichibukai? !
Could it be that he is not as 'honest' as he appears to be and has been secretly colluding with the pirate forces?
Just when the Five Elders were considering whether they had made a wrong move if Li Zhong was really colluding with the pirates in secret.
Li Zhong’s next words made the Five Elders’ blood pressure spike!
"You guys know this pirate, he's the red fishman who set the fire last night."
"I have contacted him through special channels, and he is willing to become a Shichibukai!"
"Don't worry about his strength. I'll give him a demonic outfit and he'll be strong enough."
"As for reputation, there is probably no one more popular than him in the whole world right now." Li Zhong pulled out a newspaper from his arms.
The front page headline of today's World Economic News is Fisher Tiger's red face.
The World Economic News, the newspaper of the world's largest newspaper company, is controlled by one of the kings of the underground world, 'Big News Morgans', and Morgans has a strange man under his command, named 'Photo King'!
He can appear anywhere and take photos without being discovered. Almost all the photos on the wanted posters of pirates in this world are taken by him.
"May I ask what you gentlemen think?"
What do you think?
I think you don't even consider the five of us as human beings!!
At this moment, veins popped up on the foreheads of the Five Elder Stars, and the God of Finance had already pulled out half of the long sword in his hand!
Chapter 340: Confrontation with the Five Elders
boom!
A powerful flying slash passed by.
The newly built home of Saint Satan was once again destroyed by the anger.
The sharp sword pressure swept across the sky, even the clouds in the sky were cut into a neat gap!
Using Tyranny of Future Vision, Li Zhong had already foreseen the trajectory of the sword before the hot-tempered Five Elder Stars swordsman Izambaron V. Nasujuro drew his sword, and dodged it slightly to the side.
Then, when Izambalon V. Nasujuro was just starting to gain momentum with his second sword, he seamlessly transitioned to Tyranny of the Darkness.
Relying on the part of the future that he had just foreseen in the future vision, Xuanpin Huaikong directly hit the weakest point of the second flying slash, crushing the sword of Izambalon V. Nasujuro in its infancy and defeating it on the spot!
"Don't be angry, I made this suggestion for the sake of the World Government." Li Zhong raised the corners of his mouth slightly under his lifeless eyes, and waved the newspaper with his other hand.
Li Zhong's current strength is still quite far from the Five Elder Stars. If Izambaron V. Nasujuroshi were to start a serious battle, Li Zhong would not be able to withstand it.
But the flying slash, which was purely for venting emotions and had no murderous intent and was full of flaws, could be easily broken by Li Zhong.
"Ladies and gentlemen, please take a look at the news first." Li Zhong threw the newspaper in his hand in front of the Five Elders.
Among the Five Elders there is a swordsman with a rather bad temper, such as Izambaron V. Nasujuro.
Naturally, there are also people with a more relaxed temper.
Among the Five Elder Stars, someone is needed to play the good guy, and naturally someone is also needed to play the bad guy.
Like the old swordsman, the environmental war god Marcus Maz, who is not young at all and has a long white beard, has a steady temper.
He picked up the still warm newspaper and began to read.
Yesterday, no event was more important than the attack on the World Government's holy site.
The headline on the front page was naturally the red fishman.
Big News Mogos, one of the kings of the underground world and an oligarch who occupies a near monopoly position in the news industry, controls a large amount of resources and wealth, and even has a certain amount of combat power.
But even if he had the courage, he would not dare to exaggerate or make a fuss about the affairs of the Celestial Dragons.
If you expose the darkness of the World Government, you may only get a little suppression from the World Government. If things get a little bigger, the World Government may even throw in two officials who they don't like as scapegoats.
It’s not that the emperor is not wise, but there are bad people in the court!
But if anyone dares to speak nonsense about the Celestial Dragons, there are so many of them... hehe.
Today's news is just like that, with a lot of exaggerated descriptions of the attack on the holy land.
The newspaper briefly described the fire that broke out in the Holy Land of Marijoa last night. It did not say how big the fire was, nor where specifically in the Holy Land of Marijoa the fire broke out.
Instead, the newspaper articles focused a large amount of space on Fisher Tiger's act of rescuing the Celestial Dragon slaves.
But the newspaper did not mention Fisher Tiger's "most important" identity, a fugitive slave of the Celestial Dragons!
In the newspaper they just described Fisher Tiger as a fish-man pirate from Fish-man Island.
As for the fact that Fisher Tiger was once a slave of the Celestial Dragons, the glaring "Flying Dragon Hoof" brand was there. Although it was mostly covered by clothes, everyone knew it after seeing so many extremely powerful observation Haki sweeping back and forth last night.
Allowing a former slave, a low-class person branded with the Hoof of the Flying Dragon, and a fishman who had just attacked the Holy Land to become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea was clearly an slap in the face of the World Government. How could this be considered for the benefit of the World Government?
The environmental martial god Marcus Mazsheng was reading the newspaper while thinking, but he couldn't come up with the answer after thinking for a long time. He cast a puzzled look at Li Zhong.
An expression that said, 'If you don't give a reasonable explanation today, even though we can't kill you, you won't be able to leave safely today.'
The Five Elders were now furious, so Li Zhong did not deliberately beat around the bush to continue teasing them: "First, we need to make one thing clear."
"That is, only three types of people know the truth about what happened last night."
"First, the Celestial Dragons and World Government officials who were on the island last night."
Although CP0 are special agents, their organization is that of authentic officials, and their positions are not low!
After all, he is the strongest shield of the Celestial Dragons. It is impossible to give him a loser position.
As for Li Zhong, as a navy officer, he can barely be considered an official of the World Government.
"I believe that you adults have some control over this group of people."
"The second is the mysterious spies or spies under the Big News Mogos... and the content of today's newspaper also shows that they dare not speak carelessly."
"The third reason is that the slaves who were the protagonists at the time had finally escaped. They naturally would not choose to show up in such a situation and say something that was unfavorable to us and invite more attacks."
"That is to say, as long as we don't take the initiative to expose it..." Li Zhong pointed his finger at the newspaper on the table that had just been circulated among the Five Elders.
"What happened yesterday could have been just a fire in the slave prison, and some slaves ran away, instead of..." Li Zhong smiled and looked into the distance. In that direction, the Tianlong people who were burned by the high temperature of the fire last night were grimacing as they accepted the treatment of the doctors.
"Of course, directly refuting the rumor will only arouse suspicion. Some people will think that 'what the government denies is exactly the truth!' So we just need to set a low enough reward for Fisher Tiger, give him 200 million or 300 million, pretend that nothing happened, and then let some rumors appear, while guiding public opinion to pay more attention to the escaped slaves."
Hearing this, the Five Elders nodded.
Li Zhong’s solution is indeed more appropriate.
Although the reasons behind it are complicated, the fact that the Celestial Dragons' living area in Marijoa, 'Land of the Gods', was burned to ashes by a huge fire is indeed a very embarrassing thing for the World Government. It would certainly be a good thing if this matter could be suppressed.
but……
"What does this have to do with letting that fishman become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea?" The expression on the face of the Environmental God of War Marcus Maz Saint eased, and the tense momentum was slowly disappearing.
Li Zhong’s answer to this was very straightforward.
“No matter how you cover it up, the fire in the Holy Land is a reality, and the slaves escaping are also a reality.”
"This is undeniable. Even if Fisher Tiger is killed, it cannot be washed away. His actions may even set a bad precedent for those who come after him, giving more people the courage to join the ranks of those who resist the World Government."
"And having Fisher Tiger join the Seven Warlords of the Sea is an effective way to solve this problem!"
Chapter 341: Heading Towards the Naval Headquarters
The power of the world government is engraved deep in the hearts of the people of this world.
This strength comes not only from the World Government's combat power, its brutal methods against rebels, and the intimidation of the Navy's admirals.
Another point.
That is, the World Government has never been defeated in the 800 years since its establishment!
Although victory and defeat are common in small and large battles, no one has ever put the world government in danger of its survival.
No one can rival the World Government!
This impression has been imprinted in the minds of most people like a mental stamp.
Even the Revolutionary Army, the enemy of the World Government, did not regard overthrowing the entire World Government as their ultimate goal. Their leader Monkey D. Dragon once clearly stated that the goal of the Revolutionary Army, for now, is only to eliminate the Celestial Dragons.
This incident is neither big nor small.
I say it is not small because it may make some people realize that... God can also bleed!
