I, the dragon man!

Chapter 371 The Terrifying Slave Market!

"Nani, brother???"

In the distance, Ace, who is very sensitive to the word "brother", immediately stood up with his eyes wide open.

"What's the situation, uncle, you... are you the younger brother of Shichibukai Tenyasha?

You... huh? "

"Uh……."

Hearing Ace's words, Gao Wen hurriedly stopped Ace, it was just a simple word, it's nothing if he didn't play it, but he made it a little bit weird.

After stopping Ace, Gawain clapped his hands lightly, motioning everyone to look at him.

Immediately afterwards, Gao Wen explained with a wry smile.

"It is well known that Doflamingo came from the Don Quixote family.

Even the current patriarch of the Don Quixote family, my good friend Musgarud, is Dover's blood uncle.

Among the major families of the Tianlong people, intermarriage is very common. Although my Gao Wen family belongs to a single lineage, judging from the seniority...

Dover, probably really my cousin... "

After finishing speaking, Gao Wen quickly turned his head to Dover, and then he quickly spoke to Dover, changing the topic in front of him.

Just listen to him saying to Dover seriously.

"Doflamingo, for the time being, I believe in your promise, before you violate the rules of my Black Bird, I reluctantly accept you as one of us.

But correspondingly, it is what you should pay.

Lucci! "

After Gao Wen greeted, Lu Qi immediately took two steps forward, stood beside Gao Wen and bent down to listen.

Gao Wen continued.

"Send your people to accept the forces of the joker in the underground world. For the next period of time, your work will focus on this!

In the part about the arms and devil fruit trading, let's change the way of selling.

New weapons and heavy weapons are not for sale, and famous knives and excellent guns are all kept for themselves, and they will be used to arm our forces in the future.

As for the deal between Dover and Kaido, hehe...

Just break it!
Even if it can make us a lot of extra money, I don't have the self-consciousness to strengthen the strength of the pirates! "

After the words were finished, Gao Wen glanced at Dover from a distance, and Dover waved his hand lightly indifferently.

At the same time, Lu Qimeng half-kneeled in front of Gao Wen, and said yes heavily.

After Lu Qi got the order, Gao Wen couldn't help but fell into deep thought, because the most important business of Dover's subordinates was not arms, but human trafficking!

Gently rubbing his forehead with his right hand, Gao Wen couldn't help sighing.

According to the information he has obtained in the past about Dover's subordinate forces, how big is the human trade handled by Dover?

As big as every stronghold of human trafficking in the world, there is a considerable connection with Dover!
Either Dover directly controls, or pays a fixed fee to Dover...  

Just speaking in such a general way may sound dry, so let's talk about the data.

In the world of One Piece, more than 14 lives are trafficked every day!
Pay attention, not 14 per year, but 14 per day!
Among them, most of the trafficked slaves come from villages that have been displaced due to pirate activities and the crackdown by the world government.

Every moment, a considerable number of villages across the four seas are destroyed by one horrible creature after another without the knowledge of the world.

For example, this example must mention One Piece.

In the original plot of Pirates, after Luffy released the prisoners in the city, a large number of relatively more vicious pirates returned to the sea.

Among them, the strongest is naturally Barrett who was imprisoned on the sixth floor of the city.

And what did Barrett do? After he came out, he planned the Ralph Drew Eternal Pointer plan with his collaborators not long after.

As soon as this plan appeared, the island where he implemented the plan immediately became another tragic place where residents needed to be displaced!
Most of the new generation of slaves on the sea appeared in this large-scale relocation event.

Because in Pirates, a world where although the technology line is high-end, but the people's livelihood line is extremely low, it is too easy for slave traders to tamper with large-scale population migration events!

In addition to Barrett's actions, Zefa's actions are also involved. In the original plot, Zefa's attempt to use explosive rocks to destroy the world caused Shuge Island to die, and countless refugees escaped in a hurry!

Attention, not every refugee is eligible to appear in the auction after being captured by slave traders!
And when they were not released from prison, at best, there were not so many islands destroyed.

When we were watching anime, after seeing the auction scene in Chambord, we couldn't help but feel that there were only so many people being auctioned.

A group of more than ten or twenty people will be on stage, even if they are on the stage for one night, there may not be twenty groups, right?
But in fact, the auction house in Chambord is the most high-end auction house in the world!

Because this auction house is almost the only auction house in the world that regularly welcomes Tianlong people's customers!

The slaves who can appear in this auction are all the top slaves. If the goods are not good enough, the Tianlong people will really kill the auction manager's family.

In short, it can be considered quite capable that Mr. Raleigh can regularly appear in this kind of auctioned lineup...

Cough cough, let's talk far away, Raleigh can't represent all slaves.

Apart from the official auction house in Chambord, slaves are being sold all over the world at all times!

Gangsters need to buy slaves to work and act as thugs, rich people need to buy slaves as workers, nobles need to buy slaves to maintain their luxurious life.

Even ordinary people who have made a fortune, or saved a piece of land and a house, most of them will buy one or two caring slaves to serve as housekeepers or auxiliary jobs.

In short, some darkness will never be clearly drawn into comics, everyone just needs to know that there is a word called "upper and lower effect" is enough!

When the rulers of the world are advocating slavery culture with great fanfare, it is reasonable that the slave market in Pirate World is more exaggerated than that of the United States.

Just like the old American movies we often see, perhaps in a rural open space in a certain village, wandering slave traders will start selling again and again.

This person looks okay, five thousand Baileys.

That person looks good, [-] Baileys.

There are even hundreds of Baileys.

Things like this abound, population is one of the popular commodities in this world, and the world of Pirates is just so dark....

Thinking of this, Gao Wen let out a long breath, and saw him pointing his finger at the back of the chair, then shook his head and said.

"I can't easily decide on the issue of the slave trade!

After all, the number of people involved is so large that it shocks me! "

After finishing speaking, Gao Wen pursed his lips with a deep expression, and rubbed his forehead again.

There was one thing he didn't say, and that was....

He can't even make the decision to abolish the slave market now!
Even in the United States in the past, a bill on whether to keep slaves or not led to the famous Civil War.

A country fought a vigorous civil war before finally deciding the final outcome.

As for Gao Wen at this moment, even though he has already gathered many powerful people around him, even if his forces face all the pirates and all known navies, they can barely resist for a while.

But in the final analysis, Gao Wen's influence on the entire sea is really too small!

What's more, what he can decide is only the slave sales system that Dover has created in the past few years. He is not the five elders, he cannot represent the world government, and he cannot order people all over the world to abandon slave culture.

Even if Gao Wen forcefully stopped the slavery system under Dover, it still couldn't stop the world's desire to buy slaves.

If there is a demand, there is a market. If Dover does not do this market, it can only be torn apart bit by bit by others and take over, and do it yourself!
In the former Pirate comics, Dover once said a word, which was regarded by many viewers as boastful.

He said that if he was really arrested and imprisoned, the whole world would be in turmoil!
In the comics, few people feel that the world is in turmoil, because the world of comics revolves around Luffy and his party.

In Luffy's world, he couldn't see what happened to the world with Dover's arrest.

And the fact is that after Dover was arrested, the slave markets all over the world had to be reshuffled!
It was a massive operation involving gangsters around the world, it was an economic war that could sink countless villages.

Many people don't understand, why is the Golden Emperor, or Dover, or the controller of the World Economic News.

None of them had monster-level strength, and they trembled a few times when they saw the Four Emperors.

But they have an inexplicable self-confidence!

In fact, the status and identities of these three people are equivalent to the National Bank, the National Stock Exchange and all news organizations in the country.

If overnight, all three industries will go bankrupt and disappear.

Then you guess, will there be unimaginable turmoil in this country?

Because of this, their self-confidence can be understood!

Because in this comic-based world, Luffy's story is a dream story, but the story of people like Dover is a naked reality!

Reality is far heavier than dreams.

Thinking of this, Gawain's pursed lips turned slightly pale. Beside him, Lei Li thought for a moment, then raised his hand and patted Gawain's arm.

"Hey, Captain, don't think about what's there and what's not.

Do you think we are just pirates, navy, and kids who want to play pirates?
To be honest, I have a very deep understanding of the industry in which slaves work.

I've always been sold, but trust me, you'll know more if you're sold.

I often don't bother to read the information that Xia Qi and Kalifa handed you, but I can guess what you know from those information.

You look like this now, don't you...

The slave market under Dover is difficult to deal with? "

"Whisk, swipe, swipe!!!"

The moment Raleigh finished speaking, before Gawain could respond, Dover laughed by himself.

While laughing, he spread his hands arrogantly and said.

"Rayleigh, the legendary Pluto, is nothing more than a legendary sailor and pirate after all, how can you understand what is hidden behind the word market!
Any industry that can appear in the word market, whether it is the entertainment market, or the industrial market, the food market, the building materials market, and so on.

The existence of every market is an inseparable part of today's society and the basic puzzle to maintain social stability!
As for the slave market I control, Fufu, you don't want to ban that kind of thing all at once, do you?
Tsk tsk, you want me to laugh at your kindness, guys? "

At this point, Dover raised his right hand, but he suddenly felt pain in the middle of the lift, so he had to switch to his left hand.

With his left hand sliding in the air, countless lines appeared out of thin air, and then intertwined and intertwined in the air to form a whole market structure diagram.

Pointing to the line pattern, Dover continued to sneer.

"Once my slave market is banned, the gap in demand brought about by this behavior will cause dissatisfaction, including from kings and nobles, to family members of petty bourgeoisie on the streets.

The world is changing and moving. Every day, different families change from slaves to commoners, from commoners to petty bourgeoisie, from petty bourgeoisie to rich man, from rich man to nobleman, from nobleman back to commoner and even become slaves.

Just like the flow of water, as long as everything flows in a world with the concept of slaves, the forceful cut off of the water circulation will only bring about the polarization of the upstream and downstream, which is the result of floods in the upstream and drought in the downstream.

Such a result is nothing more than a breach of the dam, and the upstream and downstream of the market will be impacted by it!
And my slave market, although even I know it, everyone who does it will be called a bloody bastard by you!
But I have to explain for them, they also have families, and they also need this industry to maintain their income!
If you really hate slave traders, then let the whole world no longer have the concept of slaves!
If there is no concept of slavery, then what they do is pure crime, and runs counter to the current of society!
As for now, even the world government and Mary Joya are taking the lead in keeping slaves. In this environment, although my people are bastards, they just have no conscience!
They only violate morality, but they are not purely illegal! ! !
Of course, some of them will definitely violate the rules and expand the scope of the slaves from the regulations...children who lost their parents to children from good families.

Some of them will also extend their hands to some families with peaceful lives when they can't find homeless people and can't survive to sell their own products!

That kind of behavior is a crime, but punishing crimes is a matter for the five old stars and the navy, so what does it have to do with me?
the most important is…….

Did you know that the slave industry does not only support slave traders, they even support the vast majority of ordinary slaves!
Unlike Raleigh and you, who sneak into my auction at every turn to make extra money, most of the slaves who appear in small places come to us by themselves and sell their children, even their wives and children. Own! "

Speaking of this, Dover looked at Gawain coldly, only to see him staring into Gawain's eyes, and said word by word.

"Gao Wen, you don't really want to completely abandon my slave market, do you?

You can rectify that market, you can add more rules and better execution methods for it!
But once you give up completely, let alone the slave traders who are eager for the upper hand in the future, just the slaves who need to wait to be sold every day!
There is no market for me to feed them, nor the words of the families who buy them.

How do you let the countries of the world conjure up the environment and resources that supply the lives of slaves out of thin air! ! !

Many of the people I trafficked were poor innocents.

But in addition to those, more people have no family, no future after all, and as long as there is no support from the slave traders who rely on them to make money, they will not even be able to eat a full meal, so that they are doomed to starve to death guy! ! ! "

Having said that, Dover stood up excitedly, and instead of looking at Gawain, he looked at everyone around him.

While watching, he slapped the table viciously and said.

"In my whole life, I don't have a fucking chance to learn some shit!

All I know is that if you want to ban slaves, wait till you actually rule the world!

If you are in your position and seek your own government, you have not reached that height, but you have made a decision of that height.

That kind of decision must be irresponsible! "

After finishing speaking, Brother Ming looked down at Gao Wen, only to see him speaking to Gao Wen in the most serious tone he ever had.

"Believe me, Gao Wen, even though I'm a trash, I know better how people like trash can survive in today's world!
Don't use a one-size-fits-all approach, even if it seems that this is an industry that shouldn't appear, and don't use a one-size-fits-all approach when it is inappropriate!
I will give the market to you and your people, and I will plan with you for the current slave market!
Let's plan the details together, raise the threshold of this industry, and reduce the chaos of this industry!
Gao Wen, you have a kind heart, but what you want to do is not a hero, you want to be the king at the top, right?

In any case, now is not the time to completely abandon the slave market, absolutely not! ! ! "
