Chapter 42 Plot
Chapter 42 Plot
Things have to started around half a year ago. In September 1514, Sea Calendar, due to pirate’s disturbance, the Queen’s confidant Jade General went to sea to suppress bandits.
But unexpectedly, Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) soldier Fred took the opportunity to rebel and sent heavy troops to seize the core sites of West Island, threatening Queen to abdicate.
When Marines received the request for help from the Queen’s guards desperately, the Jade General had been ambushed by unknown forces in the sea, and no one knew anything about his life or death. The Queen had no way out, and the situation was getting desperate!
Sengoku was angered by the strike back to East Blue, and Garp was crushed to take over the mission regarding the internal strife in West Island. At the same time, they also found out that the force that ambushed Jade General was in the infamous Baroque work from the First Half of the Grand Line!
It stands to reason that Marines cannot intervene in Allied Kingdom Member civil strife.
But this time, it was not only civil unrest, but this situation also has the Baroque’s work agency behind it. The Marines have half the reason to do it. However, even though they knew the existence of the Baroque work agency, they did not have specific evidence of Fred’s contact with the other party, which was not a crime at all.
Sengoku was very angry about this… Seeing that Baroque Works reached out to the Allied Kingdom Member of the World Government, the Marines suffered from being unable to do anything without evidence.
What could they do?
So Garp went!
He came to send everyone to their death.
Naturally, Garp went very secretly. He didn’t even return to Headquarters and directly redirected his ship on the ocean. He diverted halfway through the Eternal Pose and headed west.
But even so, his whereabouts were still exposed, and he was blocked halfway…
“This is Allied Kingdom Member’s internal affairs and the World Government doesn’t need to care about it. Marines should not interfere…”
This General Fred is no ordinary person.
In terms of status, he is not only the General of Huadu West Island (Flower Capital), but he has also bought some Senior Officials of the World Government, and arranged for himself an official position without real power within the World Government!
In terms of strength, he himself is a strong man who is not inferior to the Marine Generals. Although he has not mastered Haki but looking at the pirates that died under his hands. They all have bounties of over 50 Million! In addition to his external reputation, the peace and tranquility of Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) were also made by him!
In terms of fame, he is also the hero of Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) admired by everyone. Crocodile is also loved by the people and has a huge number of supporters. At the same time, he is Queen Rosa’s nephew and has the right to succeed her!
If he wants to rebel then not everyone can stop it.
Unless the Queen can completely suppress him…
But without the Jade General, the Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) Queen has no power, and if she tried to wrestle the country’s power from her nephew who holds the power of war. The result would be self-evident…
Hearing this, Rowen also understands how difficult this handsome guy named Fred is, and the rebellion is justified in his eyes!
But even if the atmosphere is so low, he still asks rather speechlessly: “Is there no offspring of Queen Rosa who can succeed to the throne?”
Not to mention the problem that the Queen has no family affiliation at a lot of age, raising a child would be no problem for her!
There is more hope for one more heir. As long as there is another heir to the throne now, General Fred would not be able to succeed to the throne without damaging his reputation. The difficulty will increase by several levels! Even if he had gotten rid of the Jade General with the help of the Baroque work agency not dirtying his own hands, the threat posed by one heir would be more significant than two Garp combined together!
Regarding this question, Garp suddenly stiffened.
Trane coughed from aside and explained: “The Queen was diagnosed with a disease when she was young and could not have children for life, so she had no children.”
“What the F……”
It seems that Rowen has asked something big!
“So, because there is no opponent, I can’t wait…?”
Rowen turned the subject and suddenly realized.
To put it simply, this is the story of the Queen’s succession for too long, there are no children and no daughters, and his elder nephew who has been the heir to the throne for decades.
Logically speaking, after Queen Rosa turned 70 after three days, and after a few years of declining energy, the circumstances of surrendering the throne is inevitable and reasonable. For the throne, who wouldn’t be able to wait for a few years?
But the terrible power is here!
Especially if you know you have no competitors!
That kind of unconstrained ambition can make a most sensible person unbiased and irritable!
After decades of suffering, the last patience of her nephew has been exhausted. He decided not to wait any longer! f𝚛e𝚎𝘄𝒆𝚋𝚗𝚘ѵ𝑒𝚕.𝑐𝘰𝑚
…
Fred threatened him in the name of World Government in their previous encounter, and Garp Naturally could kill this person regardless of anything, and eliminate the troubles forever. But the consequence of breaking the rules is that the people in his Ship can hardly escape the World Government’s accountability.
Although Garp repeatedly expressed his dissatisfaction with the World Government in public and bluntly said that the other party was rubbish, he did not dare to challenge the patience of Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars) with the life and future of his own people on line, so he had to go back to the Headquarters halfway and it was then that Rowen fell from the sky.
At first, Rowen was too weak, and there was no reason to connect him with the Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) civil strife. Until Rowen showed his terrible talent and perseverance, Sengoku couldn’t help thinking.
As a Logia Ability user who wants to join the Marines, Rowen is capable and willing to obey orders. At the same time, because there is no file on him, he can not be regarded as a formal Marine.
He is the best candidate to execute the Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) mission! As long as Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) Queen comes forward to protect him after the matter is completed, the Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars) wouldn’t be able to fault him.
Most of all……
The Marines will finally be able to do something that the World Government doesn’t want and they would be able to gain a bit of face!
When the boss doesn’t give a good face to the little brother, the consequences are also quite serious!
However, the later development was unexpected. When Sengoku was holding the consciousness of a strong man with a broken wrist, because of Rowen’s terrifying growth rate, countless people were studying his secrets. He waited for the information about the Thunder-Lightning Stimulation Method submitted by Zephyr.
This material was quickly placed in front of Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars). If it can be installed on a large scale, the effect would be self-evident. Therefore, they attached great importance to it and even acquiesced in the delay in the development of Pacifista.
Later, the Devices for this was confirmed to be completed, and a piece of good news came from the Marines, which made Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars) very satisfied.
Out of the first batch of 300 units, the Marines only got 100 units in Headquarters. In addition, there are a full two hundred devices sent to each branch of the CP organization!
In the eyes of Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars), the Marines are a group of watchdogs. But the hound had caught the prey, and he has gained some merit. They are the Tenryubito and the World Noble, and they won’t be stingy with rewards.
Ever since, regarding the matter of Huadu West Island (Flower Capital), the Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars) simply closed one eye, as long as it did not cause Allied Kingdom Members to panic, they will let the Marines do whatever they wanted.
At the same time, they are also obeying the rule and starting a Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) ruled by Fred who dared to collude with the Baroque works. They are more willing to believe in Queen Rosa, who has been in charge of Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) for decades.
After all, the attitude of Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars) decides everything!
They are like those emperors of Ancient China, they are above the law! The semi-feudal social system of One Piece World can be seen from this.
“When you come to Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) this time, we Marines will not provide you with any help. It’s all up to you, Rowen.”
“We Marines” means that Rowen is not the same person as them.
Hearing these words, Rowen finally understood Garp’s reason for pulling him out to sea.
After all, Rowen can clearly remember what Zephyr said to him in the Marine Headquarters more than four months ago.
“According to the rules, it is true! But you have not registered in the Headquarters Recruiting list. You are an outsider, and you are not in the list even now…”
Now four months later, Rowen, who is addicted to training, still has not registered in the “Headquarters Recruitment Register” and is still “An Outsider”. Even learning Marine Rokushiki, he also provided experimental data for Vegapunk, perfected the Device, and signed the treaty in black and white.
As long as he is a “Not Marine” guy, no matter whether it is an Allied Kingdom Member or the senior officials of the World Government who were bought by Fred, no one would dare to challenge Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars) who are also vaguely dissatisfied!
