Chapter 178 Claude Strife
Chapter 178 Claude Strife
“Brother Xie Wen! Look, look, look~ You are also being rewarded, meow!”
ˆ (=`=)
Kelimiao held up a bearded version of Xie Wen’s reward notice and jumped up and down in front of Xie Wen.
"Thank you, Keli~" Xie Wen accepted the reward order and touched the little puppet's head as a reward, "Go and play with Bonnie and the others."
After sending Keli Miao away, Xie Wen picked up the reward order and took a look...
Claude "Manticore" Strife, with a bounty of 120 million, regardless of his life or death.
It seems that the people in the World Government recognized that Manticore's sword was a well-known weapon from many years ago, otherwise they would not have given "Claude" such a nickname.
That's right. After all, it is a force that has ruled this world for eight hundred years. It must have included these famous swords.
As for the name Claude Strife, of course Xie Wen asked Buldog to tell the World Government. After all, it was the bodyguard he hired.
In other words, the World Government finally adopted the confession that Sherwin and King Buldog had discussed in advance...
Of course, there must still be doubts, but as long as Xie Wen does not take out Manticore and Bonnie's ability is not exposed, even if the World Government has doubts, it will not make itself wanted.
not to mention…
The photo on the wanted poster was provided by Xie Wen himself.
This is what Hua Mei Miao suddenly thought about later. Xie Wen has the status of a special correspondent of the World Economic and Social News. How can he pretend not to know anything when such a big thing happens around him?
So at Hua Mei Miao's suggestion, Xie Wen asked Link Miao to take a supplementary photo of himself, and then told Morgans everything that happened in the Sorbei Kingdom. Of course, Xie Wen also told Xie Wen about Claude's true identity. I definitely won't say it.
Originally, the World Government wanted to conceal the murder of Beckley, but in the end, the World Economic and Social Council directly exposed it...
Morgens, a birdman, doesn't care about the World Government or the Four Emperors when there is big news.
This also led to the fact that "Claude", who was originally scheduled to have a bounty of 50 million Baileys, was directly mentioned to 120 million.
"I'm sorry, it's all because you want to help me treat Bonnie, that's why you are involved."
Big Bear came over with an apologetic face. Although he rushed back as soon as he got the news, although the ejection speed of the meat ball fruit was very fast, it still had a limit. When he rushed back, things would It's already over.
"It's nothing. If I don't want to, I can do nothing and wait for you to come back and solve it yourself." Xie Wen waved his hand, and then deliberately said: "If you want to blame it, blame those guys from the Revolutionary Army. It’s been years, and I haven’t thought about dealing with this guy Beckley.”
The big bear opened his mouth, wanting to defend his companion, but he didn't know how to speak.
Xie Wen's complaints did not stop because of this. He continued: "I admired those people at first. After all, they did things that I wanted to do but didn't dare to do, but now..."
Xie Wen shook his head, looking disappointed.
In fact, complaints are complaints, and he also has some opinions on Dorag's actions, but Xie Wen's admiration for the Revolutionary Army has not diminished much. After all, they are really fighting against the Draco and the World Government. Although there are many aspects that are not mature enough, Their belief in carving out a better future is the same as those of reformers throughout the ages.
And there is a saying that the revolutionaries on the earth gradually found the path that is most suitable for their country after experiencing various failures. Dorag was able to achieve this point with almost no precedent. In fact, it has already Very good.
At this time, Big Bear finally couldn't help but defend Dorag: "The revolutionary army is still too weak, and it is normal to be negligent."
"But the situation in the Kingdom of Sorbey has little to do with whether the revolutionary army is weak or not." Xie Wen curled his lips and retorted: "Suppose the revolutionary army continued to pursue Beckley, but the other party was lucky enough, or What special ability did they have to escape? This matter is not their fault, but what about the Sorbey Kingdom itself?"
“The kingdom itself? What happened?”
Seeing the confused look on Big Bear's face, Xie Wen couldn't help rolling his eyes: "King Buldog is already very old. It would not be unusual even if he died tomorrow. The revolutionary army had originally thought about King Buldog's death. What should the Kingdom of Sorbey do? If the kingdoms they liberated are treated like Sorbey, what if a new group of 'Beckleys' appear a few years or more than ten years later? Continue in these countries Do you want to do it all over again?” ˆ ˆ ˆ “…those countries have learned to resist, so…”
"Do you believe this?" Xie Wen interrupted Big Bear, pointed at himself and said: "If it weren't for me and you here, when Beckley came back a few days ago, what else could the people of the Sorbey Kingdom do besides protest? What? Even if they have the heart to resist, they don't have enough resistance."
“…” Big Bear was silent for a long time, and his attitude suddenly became a little respectful, and he asked in a pleading tone: “So, what do you think the revolutionary army should do?”
"How do I know?" Xie Wen replied confidently: "I am not a revolutionary army! This kind of thing should be something people in the revolutionary army should consider, right?"
Even so, Xie Wen still wanted to help, and he had developed the habit of giving pointers when he was a "keyboard warrior" before time travel, so he still said: "Actually, the most important thing is A good way is to change the ruler... No, it should be called the leader's election method. The people should be allowed to elect their own 'king', and all rights should not be controlled by the 'king', and the rights should be distributed to different people. People, in this way, even if someone is obsessed with power, there will be others to restrain him. In addition, they cannot be allowed to work for a lifetime. They should run again every once in a while..."
Because there was no preparation before, Xie Wen basically talked about whatever came to mind. In fact, he just gave a general introduction to several social systems that he knew and remembered. Although these systems also have shortcomings of one kind or another, But at least it is better than the mainstream system popular in the pirate world now.
It’s just that after Xie Wen talked happily, he couldn’t help but sigh: “Unfortunately, under the control of the world government, it is unrealistic to implement these methods.”
Then, he gave his own suggestions based on what he saw and heard after time travel: "I think what is really suitable for the revolutionary army is actually to elect a puppet king recognized by the world government every time they overthrow a kingdom. In this way, they We can buy more time to deal with the world government, and with the help of these countries whose revolution has not succeeded, we can better hide the true power of the revolutionary army."
"Of course, I don't know the real situation of the revolutionary army. I just talk nonsense and you can just listen to it." Xie Wen pretended not to see Da Xiong desperately trying to write down everything he said. After giving his own suggestions, he turned the topic to Bonnie, "I think what you should pay more attention to now is Bonnie's affairs."
"Bonnie?!" Hearing Xie Wen mention his daughter, Daxiong immediately became nervous and didn't care to remember what Xie Wen just said. He quickly asked: "What's wrong with Bonnie?! Is her illness showing up?" Is there a problem?!”
"Don't be nervous, this matter has nothing to do with the illness... You should have seen Bonnie's fruit ability," Xie Wen shook his head to get the image of the monk-headed "little bear" out of his mind, and then asked seriously: "She She said that she has never eaten any fruit with a spiral pattern, are you sure you have never given her a devil fruit before?"
Dashion shook his head blankly and said with some shame: "I used to go out a lot. Bonnie was actually raised by a neighbor when she was a child. It wasn't until her sapphire scale disease broke out that I came back to stay with her."
"I asked Bonnie carefully. Her situation is different from that of ordinary ability users..." Xie Wen first talked about Bonnie's abnormality, and then said: "So I guess, is it possible that Bonnie's fruit ability is different from that of Sapphire?" Like scaly disease, it is also implanted by someone. I discussed this topic with Xiao Ai, and she also agreed with my guess..."
Xie Wen hesitated for a moment, then asked: "When Xiao Ai said that Bonnie's sapphire scale disease was man-made, your reaction was not right, so you should know something, right? Can you tell me about it? ?”
…”
Big Bear covered his face with his palms, his whole body trembling slightly, as if he was caught in some kind of painful memory.
Just when Xie Wen was thinking about forgetting it, Big Bear finally spoke: "Bonnie, she is not actually my biological daughter..."
Following Big Bear’s remorseful and painful account, Xie Wen learned that Bonnie’s mother, Ginny, was abducted by the Celestial Dragons and eventually contracted Jade Scale and was abandoned by the Celestial Dragons.
Xie Wen's mouth opened and closed several times. He didn't expect that the big bear who always had a straight face in the comics would be so miserable...
However, Ginny is obviously a cadre of the Revolutionary Army, but she was kidnapped by the Tianlong people so easily. Dorag's organization does not seem to be as powerful as it is in the comics...
Hmm, maybe the strength accumulated by the revolutionary army was not strong enough at the beginning?
Also, Big Bear is somewhat responsible here. If he had stayed with Ginny, with his fruit ability, at least escaping would not be a problem.
Of course it was impossible for Xie Wen to say such heartbreaking words, so he just patted Big Bear’s arm and comforted him: “Don’t worry, we will do our best to cure Bonnie.”
"Thank you."
This time, Xie Wen didn’t feel that the tearful bear in front of him seemed inappropriate at all.
The original meaning of Manticore is manticore, or manticore, and the previous Centaur is centaur.
Because the red-haired Western sword is called Griffin, which means griffin, I basically named all Western-style weapons in this way.
