Chapter 306: The World Government Arrives
...
Gel stood up and stretched, then shook his head and smiled:
"Let's go, Weibull. We haven't been fishing for several days. The fish in the sea must be hungry. Let's go fishing."
"Okay brother!"
Ger carried a bucket of new bait developed independently, and Weibull carried a few fishing rods. The two brothers left the castle and walked towards the beach.
"Wow, it's Master Gel! Good afternoon, Master! Good afternoon, Master Weeble!"
On the road, a group of Duffy kids, about 1.8 or 1.9 meters tall, were running out to play during the lunch break. When they saw Gel and Weevil, they all ran over happily to say hello.
"Here, share them. Remember to take a few each. Don't eat too much, or you'll get cavities."
Gel smiled and took out several large bags of candy for Weeble to distribute to the group of guys who were a few years old and in their teens.
"Wow! Thank you, young master! Thank you, Lord Weevil! It's candy! So sweet."
Regardless of their race, children love sweets and can’t help but smile after eating the candies.
"Go play, study hard, and remember to eat on time!"
"I know, young master!"
Since the appearance of this group of Duffy little ghosts, the Bird's Nest has become much more lively and full of vitality. It is no longer like before, with only zombies and puppets working silently.
"Ah, that's great. Now there are a bunch of chirping little birds. It looks like a real bird's nest now."
Gel said with a smile, and then he and Weibull continued on their way.
"Brother, this candy is so sweet, I saved one for you!"
Weibull used his power for personal gain. When the candies were distributed, he took the opportunity to stuff a handful into his own mouth and also gave one to Geer.
"You can eat them all. I don't need them."
Ger said with a smile.
...
Bird's Nest Island
There is no sunrise or sunset, only lights turning on.
The merchant ships coming in and out are like hardworking worker bees, going out to collect pollen and returning with a full load.
Captain Gir, the king of sea fishing, basically goes to the beach to fish whenever he has free time every day.
Due to the frequent coming and going of merchant ships, not only does the main gate need to be kept open at all times, but Tom has also recently been building a smaller back door as a precaution. He said that when there are tens of thousands of merchant ships in the future, the number of ships entering and leaving the Bird's Nest at the same time may reach hundreds or even thousands, and with so many ships coming in and out, everything can be in order.
A fleet of merchant ships entered the inner harbor, bringing a wave of waves to the inner bay, affecting Captain Gel's ability to see the buoy.
"Hehehe! Boss Gel! I'm back!"
A huge black shadow flew across the sky and finally landed beside Gel.
Gel was wearing a tattered straw hat on his head. He looked intently at the buoy that was rising and falling with the waves brought by the boat, and spoke without turning his head.
"Lao Mo, don't you guys rarely go out with the merchant ships these days? Why are you suddenly interested in going out for a stroll this time?"
"Boss Geer, it was Mosan who said that there were a few suspicious people watching our caravan's boats recently, so I went to take a look. Unexpectedly, I actually got something. Look, boss, I caught two big fish, hehehehe!"
Moria said happily.
Hearing this, Gel turned around and noticed that Moria was holding two men in black suits with sacks on their heads.
"Hehehe, these two guys are pretty good. It took me some effort to deal with them. I also accidentally killed a less powerful guy. These two are at least at the level of pirates with a bounty of hundreds of millions. They also know Six Styles and Haki. With two more good shadows, we can upgrade the zombie generals' muskets to big guns!"
A man in a black suit who knows six styles?
Gel can guess who it is without even taking off the mask.
"This is someone from the World Government's CP Department. Has he been searched thoroughly?"
Gel began to think about the intention of the World Government to send CP to keep an eye on the Bra Chamber of Commerce.
To be honest, there's really nothing good about the Chamber of Commerce. They probably just want to see if you're a soft persimmon and whether you can get money out of it by squeezing you. If so, they'll extort money from you regularly in the future.
"Ah, a spy for the World Government? I thought they were marines who had become pirates or members of the Black Society. They originally had a Den Den Mushi, but they destroyed it themselves before I captured them. Can they still keep it, boss?"
Moriah looked regretful. If he had to kill them, there would only be two corpses left as zombies, and their value would be greatly reduced.
"Keep them. It's not a big deal. Take their shadows first and then turn them into toys. Remember to ask Stella to set the security level of the contract to the highest level so that they can't do anything except obey and work."
Ger said with a smile.
“Okay boss, I’ll go find Stella right away.”
Gel can now understand why Sugar has become the most important protected object of the Tanquiked family. The ability of the Toy Fruit is so convenient that one can become addicted to it if one is not careful. Looking back, one will find that if all the toys are restored to humans, the world will be in chaos.
"Go ahead. By the way, tell Stella not to fall behind in her training. Her devil fruit ability is too threatening. She may become the enemy's main target in the future. You should also keep an eye on her and don't expose her to danger."
Gel mentioned it casually when he thought of it.
"I remember the boss!"
As Moria spoke, he spread his black wings, created a gust of wind, and swept up the two living people and flew towards the castle.
...
two days later
Mosan found Young Master Gel who was telling adventure stories to the little ghosts. As soon as Gel started talking about how he killed an island-eating fish as big as an island with one punch, he was taken away by Mosan.
"Captain, the World Government has sent people to contact our caravan."
After the two of them came to the side, Mo Sang spoke.
"Oh? Our Chamber of Commerce is legal and compliant. How are they going to find fault with us?"
Gel said nonchalantly.
I had heard about it from Moria a few days ago, so I wasn't surprised at all.
"At the moment, they haven't deliberately made trouble. They just said they want to talk to the person in charge about cooperation. How about I go and talk to them first to see what their intentions are?"
Mosan said after thinking for a moment.
"No, keep it a secret. The big boss behind the scenes won't show up so easily and lower his status. Let someone reply to them and tell them that if they want to discuss cooperation, they should bring a Den Den Mushi who can contact their boss. Otherwise, there's no point in discussing anything."
Gel gave a fearless smile.
Five old stars?
As long as Nika doesn't awaken, they are just five old guys who can only pretend to hold a meeting while posing. They have been chatting with each other for who knows how many years, watching the situation in the sea deteriorate and their natural enemies grow step by step. They are definitely under some kind of curse that prevents them from taking action, or as Roger said, everyone has their own time to appear on the stage, and before it is their turn to appear on the stage, they can only hold a meeting first. There is nothing to be afraid of.
