The reviewer sent by the Navy Headquarters to Navy Branch 133 was none other than Kuzan, who had become a commodore.
In addition to the accompanying officers and soldiers of the headquarters, Jiguo Enichi also saw another acquaintance.
"Oh! Instructor Victor, you are here too."
There are two people leading the officers and soldiers of the headquarters. One is the Commodore of the Navy Headquarters, Kuzan. The other person is Victor, the instructor of the Naval Academy. They are all acquaintances of Jiguo Yuanyi and Cyrus.
"Enichi, what kind of guy am I? Why can't I be a prosecutor?"
"A guy like you can become a major. As the examiner, what's the problem?"
"You guys just came to Xihai for an internship, but you actually made such a big fuss."
"Do you know that Teacher Zefa has received a lot of criticism because of your relationship!"
Qingzhi, wearing a white suit and a cloak of justice, slowly walked off the boat. Seeing the spirited Enichi Tsukuni, Aoki couldn't help but smile, but his smile disappeared and he complained instead.
Victor followed Aokiji, stepped off the warship, smiled at Yuanyi and Cyrus, and remained silent without saying a word.
"Is it the criticism... is it because I was promoted to major?"
"Indeed, such an improvement should be unique among the navy."
Today's navy has not launched a "world conscription." The promotion of military ranks in the navy requires one step at a time. It is simply impossible to jump from a civilian to a general like in the future.
For someone like Enichi Tsukuni to jump from a third-class private to a major, it is already a very amazing thing. Even though Enichi Tsukuni killed 200 million pirates when he was in the Kingdom of Neil, he had the merit of protecting members of the royal family.
Jumping to level ten is still too appalling.
During the time when Aokiji set off for the West Sea, the news of Tsukikuni Enichi's promotion to major had already spread in the Navy headquarters.
Although it was the order of the Warring States General, Zefa was Jiguo Enichi's teacher and was also Jiguo Enichi's current guardian. It was difficult for others not to think of Zefa when Jiguo Enichi had such a rise.
Of course, the fact is that Zefa did intervene.
"If it were just you who were promoted to major, there wouldn't be so much criticism."
"The biggest reason for the criticism is the things you did in Branch 133."
"Arresting all officers above the rank of lieutenant in the branch simply because of suspicion. To be honest, no one has done such a thing before you."
"This matter has a great impact, and for some unknown reason, this matter has spread to other branches of the Navy, and the reactions of each branch are also very violent."
"Some people in this headquarters are now saying that Teacher Zefa is pampering you too much. What do you mean... The navy is everyone's navy, not the navy of some high-level individuals."
"If this matter is not handled well, things will get serious."
"Yuanyi, branch 133, will there be any problems? Did you find anything in your investigation!?"
After Aoki got off the boat, he walked up to Enichi Jiguo and lowered his voice to talk to Enichi Jiguo about some things about the headquarters. After hearing Qingzhi's words, Yuanyi could roughly imagine what kind of pressure Zefa was under.
Although it is impossible for Yizefa's status to be affected by these rumors. But it is conceivable that if things here in the branch are not handled well, Zefa's majesty in the navy will definitely be damaged.
Jiguo Enichi, who realized that Zefa was being attacked by public opinion, looked much more serious.
In the future, Roger only used one sentence to set off the terrifying Age of Discovery. No matter when, Jiguo Yuanyi will never underestimate the power of public opinion. This is an invisible knife that kills people.
"Let's go to the base first, and I'll explain it to you in detail. Before you came, I had been reining in the actions of the marines in the branch."
"There is no one I can trust, and there are many pirates in the waters near the Kingdom of Mia. Cyrus often needs to lead a team to attack."
"To be honest, I have never opened the so-called investigation at all."
"However, Kuzan, one thing I am sure of is that Branch 133 must have quite a problem."
While the two were talking, Enichi Jikuni and Aoji walked towards the conference room of the naval base. Victor listened to the conversation between Enichi Jikuni and Aoji, and his expressions were always calm. .
When following Aoki and Ji Guoyuan towards the base, their eyes kept wandering on the sergeants in the branch, as if they were examining something.
The navy led by Aokiji arrived at the branch, and all the sailors patrolling and in charge of the prison in the branch were replaced by people from the headquarters.
Yuan Yi led Qing Pheasant and Victor into the conference room. After a few people sat down, Ji Guo Yuan began to tell Qing Pheasant and Victor what he had encountered in the branch, and at the same time said some things about Ji Guo Yuanyi's speculation.
From the moment Yuanyi and Cyrus hide their identities and board Kane's return warship, to Yuanyi becoming suspicious of the missing "雑兵" on the ship, and then to the strange interception they encounter when they go to sea. No matter how big or small the matter was, Yuanyi told Qing Zhi and Victor.
At the same time, in order to prove his words, Yuanyi took Aoki and Victor to the patrol ship where he was before and showed them the "scene" at that time.
Ji Guoyuan knew early on that the headquarters would come to investigate this matter, so Yuanyi never cleaned up the "scene" on his patrol ship at that time.
When Yuanyi led Aokiji and others to board the patrol ship again, the strong smell of blood and corpses hit their faces.
In more than ten days, the corpses at that time had already begun to rot.
However, this does not affect Aokiji and the others' injury examination. After all, it is quite easy to distinguish whether the fatal injury is a sword wound or a gunshot wound. Moreover, the firearms that were fired were all left at the scene. It is not difficult to find out this matter.
After surveying the scene, Aokiji looked much more relaxed after learning the whole story. He also realized that this Navy Branch 133 might really have a big problem.
Although Zefa had already told him something before he came, Aokiji felt a little uneasy before seeing the scene. It wasn't that he didn't believe in Enichi Jiguo, but that he felt that Enichi Jiguo might Because of his youth, he is not so reliable in doing things.
However, Aokiji did not expect that what Ji Guoyuan was doing was quite orderly. Although his methods were a bit rough, he could indeed start an investigation with the existing things.
Soon, Qingzhi took over all the affairs of the branch and began to review all the officers in the branch.
And until Aokiji began to examine these officers, Enichi Tsukuni was finally able to free his hands to investigate the Loluo Chamber of Commerce, which had tentacles covering the entire Kingdom of Mia.
Yuan Yi has not forgotten that the group of pirates he slaughtered at that time came with the order of the "president"!
...
“Super value products will appear one after another.”
"Please pay attention, don't miss it!"
"Then, please take a look at the next item..."
This is the venue for a large-scale auction organized by the Luoluo Chamber of Commerce. In the center of the venue, the host is holding a microphone and inciting people's emotions.
While the host was speaking, the lights in the venue dimmed. In the center of the venue, a beam of light hit the central stage.
A crack opened in the ground beside the host. The next second, the floor slowly parted, and the lifting platform slowly rose up holding a huge cage.
"Sa! Everyone, please look here!"
"Lot No. 6! Five muscular slaves!"
"This is the top-quality product that our Chamber of Commerce has worked so hard to obtain! These guys are all big pirates with bounties on their backs!"
"In order to maintain peace in the territorial waters of the Kingdom of Mia, we spent a lot of time catching these people."
"Lot No. 6, five pirate slaves traveling across the Western Sea!"
"The starting price is 5 million Baileys! For only 5 million Baileys, you can pack up these pirate slaves and take them away!"
"Sa! Start bidding!"
As the host finished speaking, warm cheers erupted in the venue. It was obvious that the business on stage was human trafficking, but the people participating in the auction in the venue were very enthusiastic, and the cheers seemed to be able to break through the roof of the venue.
"Some of the previous auctions were normal, but now, the slave auction has started."
"Speaking of which, the Kingdom of Mia is a member country of the World Government, right? Is it legal for all member countries to auction slaves?"
In a corner of the auction venue, Ji Guoyuan, who was wearing regular clothes, held his hands in front of his chest, his back slightly pressed against the back of the chair, looking calmly at the "Lot No. 6" in the center of the venue, and asked his companions.
"Basically, yes, basically all countries have slavery. Once you become a slave, you become an object. It is not surprising that it will appear in auctions."
"It's also the case in Dressrosa. A large part of the sword fighters fighting in the arena are slaves."
Next to Jiguo Enichi, Cyrus frowned slightly, as if he remembered something bad, and answered in a deep voice.
"How do slaves come here?" Yuanyi didn't have a deep understanding of "slavery" in this world. Seeing that Cyrus seemed to have some understanding at this time, he continued to ask.
But this time, the one who answered Jiguo Enichi was not Cyrus, but another person sitting next to Jiguo Enichi.
"There are many ways to obtain slaves. Some are sold as slaves by family members, some are children of slaves, some are pirates caught by slave teams, and some are purchased through buying and selling."
"What? Yuanyi, are you interested in slaves?"
Qingzhi slumped down on the chair, looking coldly at the center of the auction venue, and asked in a deep voice. Today Kuzan believes in "burning justice". Although he will not stop this kind of human trade from his position, Aokiji can't bear to look at this kind of thing.
After this lot came up, Qingzhi's face became a little ugly.
"How is that possible? I ask this just to know what kind of slaves are compliant and what kind of slaves are not compliant."
"Look at those 'honest' pirates in the cage. No matter how I look at them, I can't see them looking like thieves!"
Tsukuni Enichi's words made both Aoki and Cyrus look slightly startled, and then both of them looked at the cage in the center of the venue.
Before Ji Kunoyuan said this, Aokiji hadn't paid much attention. After hearing this, Aokiji carefully looked at the five pirates in the cage, and soon discovered some problems.
There is no murderous intent. None of these five pirates have murderous intent.
Pirates, what kind of people can be called pirates? Can someone who pursues freedom and sails for adventure be called a pirate? In that case, wouldn't it glorify pirates too much? If a person like that is a pirate, then does a person like Rolando also become a pirate?
People who travel across the sea and obtain resources by plundering and killing are called pirates. And a person who can be called a great pirate has probably gone through countless battles, large and small. Regardless of his strength, the murderous aura on his body is definitely very strong.
But the five "big pirates" locked in the cage at this time had no murderous intent at all, and they didn't look like pirates at all. Although these five slaves are all very muscular, there are no scars on their bare upper bodies.
"Yuanyi, what do you mean..." Qingzhi touched his chin and asked, concerned about this discovery.
"The breakthrough for the Luoluo Chamber of Commerce may be here."
"Just take action! I have a hunch that these five people can give me the information I want."
As Jiguoyuan spoke, Cyrus had already stood up with his sword in hand, ready to take action. However, after he stood up, he found that both Jiguoyuan and Qingzhi were sitting in their seats with strange expressions on their faces. By Cyrus.
When Cyrus saw that neither Qingzhi nor Jiguoyuan made any move, he scratched his head strangely and asked, "Shouldn't we just take action? What are we waiting for?"
Qingzhi's breath stagnated when he heard this, and he widened his eyes slightly and looked at Cyrus in disbelief, as if he had seen some strange species. Seeing the seriousness on Cyrus's face, Qingzhi finally sighed. , said:
"To take action directly is to take action directly, but not now!"
"There are too many people and the impact is too great. I know you are in a hurry, but don't be anxious yet."
"Wait a minute, we'll start after the auction ends. Don't worry, we'll have time, and people won't run away there."
"By the way, let's continue to see what other things will be auctioned at the auction house. Maybe, they still have such 'pirates', but they can't tell for sure."
Qingzhi pulled Cyrus by the corner of his clothes and pulled Cyrus back to his seat.
At this time, people participating in the auction had already started bidding.
Normally, the lowest price for an ordinary male human slave is 500,000 beli. For these five people, the price will not exceed 3 million beri. However, with the blessing of the name "Big Pirate", the final transaction price reached 700. Van Bailey.
After confirming the buyer, the lifting platform slowly lowered. The host looked down at the auction sheet in his hand and shouted excitedly:
"Everyone needs to pay attention!"
"The items that will be auctioned next are the best items in our auction!"
"Sa, come and see lot number seven!"
As he spoke, a spotlight shone on the center of the venue, and the lift platform that had just fallen slowly rose up.
On the lifting platform, there is an exquisite pink cage, and inside the cage, a young woman is locked up.
She was wearing a long black dress, and her long snow-white hair was spread casually on her shoulders.
Her eyes were bright and energetic, and there was wisdom in her deep black eyes.
The woman has a handsome face and exudes an inexplicable independent aura. Her beauty is not the kind of charming beauty, but the kind of intellectual beauty. Even though she is in a prison, she still exudes a calm and unique temperament. .
The appearance of the female lot also pushed the atmosphere of the auction to a climax, and the excited cheers of the spectators instantly filled the entire venue.
"Why does this person... seem familiar to me?"
Jiguo Yuanyi's eyes fell on the woman in the cage, and he frowned slightly. He felt a strong sense of familiarity from the other person, but Yuanyi didn't know where this familiarity came from. Where did it come from.
In the center of the venue, the host began to introduce the auction items.
"This woman is not only beautiful, but she is also a scholar!"
"She is different from the common things you have seen. Such high-quality slaves are very rare!"
"I don't need to tell you much. After you buy it, you can appreciate it carefully for yourselves!"
"The starting price is 10 million Baileys!"
