With a click, the door of the emergency room opened. Weiwei, Jaka, Bell in a wheelchair, and Ikarem on crutches all gathered around and asked anxiously: "How is father (His Majesty the King)?"
After asking, they discovered that it was Tom who opened the door. Wendy was being carried by Zhang Daye, sleeping soundly on Zhang Daye's shoulder. Xia Lulu flew up and made a silencing gesture to them.
Jackie Chan and Perona looked at Wendy worriedly, but the calm looks of Zhang Daye and Xia Lulu made them feel relieved a little.
Tom closed the door from the inside, and Zhang Daye whispered: "Don't worry, the poison has been cured and the injuries are almost healed. It's just that the king lost more blood. He just needs to rest for a few days."
"Great!" Everyone's faces showed joy.
Weiwei was happy for a while, then immediately asked worriedly: "Is Wendy okay?"
Zhang Da also said: "It's okay, I'm just tired."
Today, Wendy used Roar several times in a row, and used her full strength to extinguish dragons. She also added three buff magics to all members at the same time. When she came back, she detoxified and healed the king. If Zhang Da hadn't also shared part of the healing task, Wendy would have been You might faint during the treatment.
"Thank you very much!" Jaka bowed with a moved expression, and even Ikarem on crutches and Bell in a wheelchair also bent down with difficulty.
"Save your words of thanks to Wendy. I'll send her back to her room to rest first." Zhang Da also said, "You two wounded should also go back and have a good rest. I don't have the extra magic power to help you treat her now."
"Ah, this little thing... cough, well, okay~" Ikarem finally had the mood to clear his throat again and adjust his voice, "We can just take care of this minor injury ourselves, so why bother bothering you anymore?"
"That's right." Bell nodded in agreement. He heard that Zhang Daye and Tom rescued him after he was chopped by Mr. 1. He was wrapped with a foot-thick bandage. After the doctor checked, he said that the treatment effect was very good...
But Bell doesn't want to experience it a second time, and is even worried about the king's current state. Fortunately, there are still doctors taking care of him inside. At least the king should be given a breathing space, right?
…
On the other side, Lieutenant General Huoshaoshan did not rush to poach, but asked Artoria and the others to go into the city first. He stayed outside the city on the pretext of waiting for his subordinates to gather, and reported the Alabasta affairs to his headquarters and directly to the Warring States Period.
Upon hearing the news of Crocodile's death, Warring States said in surprise: "Dead?"
"Yes, Crocodile suddenly attacked Ye Yan, and several other people wanted to protect him..." Huo Shaoshan told the cause of Crocodile's death, of course, skipping some trash talk.
"I understand, then after clearing the handover with Alabasta, return to the headquarters as soon as possible." Regarding the death of another Shichibukai, Sengoku felt a little headache, but he did not feel angry at all.
Allowing his subordinates to massacre small towns, assassinate kings, attempt to subvert the political power of participating countries, and wantonly cause natural disasters... With all these crimes added up, killing him on the spot would be an advantage for Crocodile.
The handover was easy to handle, Huo Shaoshan asked: "What about the attitude towards the Amber Tour Group?"
Although it was a counterattack in self-defense, after all, he killed a Shichibukai in front of him. Although this Shichibukai will definitely be removed from the list, isn't it still a formality? The Navy's attitude needs to be clarified.
"Didn't you just say that this was Crocodile's special search team that resisted arrest and attacked Alabasta, and was killed by the team? What does it have to do with the Amber Tour Group?"
"Yes! I understand." Huo Shaoshan felt relieved. It seems that he still has to buy lollipops. This should be considered as entertainment expenses, can it be reimbursed?
"That's it. Remember to write the mission report in detail." Warring States hung up the phone. Although he said it easily, he was actually very worried that Wulaoxing would decide to reward the amber group when he got excited. He had to try his best to find a way around it.
After hearing the words of the mission report, Huo Shaoshan also began to have a headache. This mission was too troublesome, involving the navy, alliance countries, criminal organizations, the Shichibukai, and a group of 'enthusiastic citizens'.
In addition to clearly explaining the cause and effect, it is also expected to include the latest member information of the Amber Tour Group and a 'risk assessment'.
He even felt that it would be more appropriate for CP to handle this task. Instead of writing this, Huo Shaoshan would rather fight Crocodile again.
Thinking of this, Huo Shaoshan took a puff of cigarette melancholy. They shouldn't need to write a report, right? Why don't you win over them and just join them on the trip?
…
Wulaoxing quickly learned the news and sat together for a meeting as usual.
"Traveling? After traveling for half a year, we lost two Shichibukai. Are they really going to travel?"
"Judging from what they did along the way, apart from catching pirates when they were short of money, they didn't seem to be proactive in causing trouble. Aren't Jinbei and Mihawk also the Shichibukai? I heard they have a pretty good relationship with them. "
"Moriya was probably trying to cause some shadow zombies. He provoked them and was assassinated by them. Crocodile was appointed by Alabasta this time. It was his duty to deal with Crocodile. In addition, we are working together with the navy...these guys are really good at blocking our mouths."
"It's okay if there is no substantive evidence about Moria. As a Shichibukai, you can't blame others for doing such a thing. It's just a pity that not only did we not find candidates to supplement the Shichibukai, but also the number of people decreased in a short period of time. Got one."
It had only been four months since Moria's death, and they were still looking for a candidate to replace him. They didn't expect that there would be another one in such a short period of time, which caught people off guard.
"If things like this happen continuously, the deterrence of the King's Shichibukai may be greatly affected."
"It doesn't matter. If you add a few more reckless guys to provoke the other five, the deterrence will be restored soon."
"The red hair really refused the last invitation. Why not just invite them?"
"It is true that their strength and reputation are enough, but they are now considered officials of Alabasta. Let's wait a little longer."
"Speaking of the royal family of Alabasta, which family is it? Nefertari."
"Yes, one of the twenty kings who established the World Government, but they refused to move to the Holy Land and chose to stay in Alabasta."
"In other words, they are 'traitors' just like Doflamingo's father, Don Quixote Huo Ming, the Ancient Sage!"
…
It is blameless that King Shichibukai used the privileges granted by the world government to develop his own power, but using this to deceive the people's trust and try to usurp the royal power of the participating countries is very serious. Serious enough to significantly affect the credibility and reputation of the world government.
But you can’t hide such a big thing, so how can you reduce the impact of this big news?
The answer is to make bigger news.
Therefore, the front page headline of the World Economic News the next day was: "On March 7, 1511, four "sea emperors" were born!"
"They are the great pirates who rule the second half of the Great Line like emperors. In terms of reputation, power and strength, they are extremely close to the original Pirate King Goldo Roger. If the next 'Pirate King' can appear in this era, Then it is bound to happen among them!"
"Their names are: Whitebeard Edward Newgate, the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates; Kaido the Beasts, the captain of the Beasts Pirates; Charlotte Lingling, the captain of the Big Mom Pirates; and the Five Peaks Pirates Captain Tuan, Captain Wang Zhi of Wufeng!”
The entire first page of the layout was filled with the photos and names of the four people's bounty orders.
Next, a large space is used to introduce the general territory and general power of the four pirate groups, and many of their personal achievements are also described.
The people who saw this newspaper were in great shock. At the beginning of this year, the Navy had just confirmed the new marshal and three generals. Now, three months later, four emperors have actually appeared among the pirates? What will this world become?
Ordinary people around the world were panicked for a while, and even the assurances from the navy in the news could not reassure them.
However, after a short period of panic, they got used to it. They suddenly discovered that it didn't seem to have much to do with them whether there were 4 emperors or 5 emperors at sea. Life still has to go on as usual, and gold from the sky still has to be paid as usual. Whether you will encounter pirates depends on how the local defenders are doing. They... seem to be unable to do anything. For ordinary people, fate never seems to be in their hands. inside.
There are also some ordinary people who have different concerns. For example, the Goodman family of the Chambord Islands. After flipping through the newspapers, they found the news about Crocodile in the nooks and crannies. To be precise, they focused on Zhang. Tatsuya.
Yes, it was such a big news that Crocodile was deposed from the title of King Shichibukai and was shot dead on the spot, but he was squeezed into an inconspicuous corner very aggrievedly.
After carefully reading the news word for word, little Bayer said excitedly: "In this case, wouldn't Brother Tatsuya and the others become the heroes of Alabasta?"
"Yes, brother Tatsuya has more companions again, and he has become a big shot now." Goodman sighed, and then said, "I remember that when I was young, I also defeated the powerful seaman at the dock. A thief, and then everyone calls him the hero of the dock!"
"Hey? Really?" Little Bayer asked excitedly, "Dad, do you also wear a cloak?"
"Put on... a cape?" Goodman was stunned and said, "Of course!"
"That's amazing!" Bayer's eyes almost glowed, "So-called heroes still have to wear a cape! Hey, Dad, please put on the cape and show me, okay?"
"Then, how can that be done?" Goodman asked in a hurry, "What do you think the cape is? It can only be worn during critical scenes. It is a symbol of a hero!"
"Awesome!" The little boy had no resistance to such 'handsome' words.
Mrs. Molly hid her smile and couldn't bear to expose her husband's lie. She was thinking about whether to really make him a cloak.
…
"Dad! The newspaper said you were the Four Emperors!" Marco said happily, holding up a newspaper.
Others cheered happily after hearing this:
"Then we will be the Yonko Pirates from now on!"
"Emperor of the Sea, he sounds so majestic!"
"Let's have a party to celebrate, Dad!"
"Hmph." Whitebeard glanced at the contents of the newspaper and said disdainfully, "It's probably the World Government playing some trick again."
"It's not impossible." Marco calmed down. Although the four people mentioned in the news, including his father, are all famous pirates, they have not actually reached the level of 'emperor over the new world'. degree. There must be something wrong with giving them the title of 'Four Emperors' for no reason.
"Everyone, please cheer up recently. Maybe there will be many unscrupulous guys coming to your door again." Marco reminded, reputation is one of the things that pirates yearn for most, and such a resounding title as Emperor of the Sea is Who doesn't want that?
The chaos some time ago has just subsided, are you going to be busy again? It’s really hard to stop.
"Anything like that is fine." Whitebeard didn't care about this kind of thing, and he wasn't worried about those challengers who didn't know their own abilities. He looked at a man eating cherry pie and asked, "Teach, two The squad leader has been vacant for a long time, would you like to be the captain?"
"Me?" Tiqi stopped eating and said somewhat honestly, "No, dad, I can't do it."
"Don't say that, Teach, you've been following dad for a long time, right?" Sachi, the captain of the fourth division, put his arm around his shoulders and said, "No one will object to you being the captain of the second division!"
"That's right, Tiqi, dad said that, it's okay for you to be here!" Others also started persuading him. After all, Tiqi is very experienced, has good abilities, is kind to others, and is very popular on the ship.
"No, no, I'm still far away! I really can't do the captain's thing." Facing the enthusiastic brothers, Teach looked at Whitebeard as if asking for help, "Dad, there are many people on the ship who are better than me." If you are a strong person, then choose a suitable one, right?"
"It's up to you." Whitebeard sighed helplessly. What should I do if my son is willful? As a doting father, of course he spoiled him, "As compensation, you treat me to a drink today."
Tiqi smiled and patted his chest: "No problem! Dad can drink as much as he wants!"
"Hey, Tikki, daddy is tricking you into drinking wine!" Team 7 Captain Lakyo reminded, "Daddy is always like this, you are too honest!"
Teach scratched the back of his head and smiled nonchalantly: "What does it matter!"
"Wait a minute, Marco, what is that?" Foil Bista noticed the inconspicuous piece of news.
"Huh?" Marco looked carefully at the page pointed by Bista and read, "The former King Shichibukai Crocodile was deprived of the title of Shichibukai. He resisted arrest during the arrest and was shot dead on the spot?"
"What?" There were exclamations all around, urging Marco to continue reading.
Even Whitebeard's expression became serious. Was that kid killed? Amber Tours, how many times have you heard of it recently?

I made up Wang Zhi’s title based on the information about that person in history. If you get slapped in the face in the future, remember to remind me to change it (dog head)
