The Glory of the Pirates

Chapter 335 His Majesty the King
The Kingdom of Stone is one of the non-government countries that can be seen everywhere in the New World.

The land area is the same as the most common country on the sea, just a small island.

There is only a small town and a few small villages on the island.

As a non-government member country, this country can survive in the New World until now, of course, because they already have a backer early.

The flag of the Charlotte family hangs on the port of this country. This country is the territory under Charlotte Lingling and is protected by them.

So even if this country does not have an organized army, it will collapse instantly if it is attacked by pirates from the new world, but it can barely survive in this chaotic sea.

Today, this unknown country on the sea welcomes three special visitors.

Brett wrapped himself and the two little girls in black robes.

The two mermaids, Nana and Shirahoshi, are too conspicuous to come to the human world.

And Brett himself is also not unknown, even in this marginal world of human beings, there are probably not a few people who know him.

So of course you have to pretend a little bit.

Brett brought two little girls to a village on this island.

The village looks a bit dilapidated, and most of the houses are low thatched huts.

The ragged people in the village looked very dull. Even if they noticed their arrival, they turned their heads to look at them slowly, with dull eyes and no brilliance.

More people were just lying on the ground basking in the sun in disorder. The movement brought by the three of Brett could not even make them raise their heads at all.

"It's so broken..."

An air bubble was wrapped around her waist, so Nana, who was able to move freely on land, looked around, and she whispered with some disgust,

"Is this how the human country is? When I was young, my sisters often told me that the human country is very beautiful and rich!"

"There are not many places like that, but there are many more places like this."

Brett said calmly.

"As expected, our Fishman Island is better!"

Nana whispered.

Brett chuckled.

Not to mention now, even before Brett returned to the Fishman Island a few years ago, the situation in the Fishman Island was much better than this island at that time.

It is poor and backward, and there are almost no traces of human civilization.

"Brother Brett, what's so interesting here?"

Nana pouted, and said a little excitedly, "Let's go and see a truly prosperous human city!"

"Don't worry, I'm going right away."

Bright said.

He took the two little girls to visit other villages on the island.

Without exception, all villages are exactly the same, poor and backward.

People living in these villages are numb and dazed, with yellow and emaciated faces and ragged clothes.

"This country is so poor!"

Nana couldn't help sighing, "It's too difficult for people living in this country!"

"Ah."

The little princess also nodded, "Your Majesty the king of this country must also have a headache, right?"

"Is that so?"

Brett smiled.

That's why I came to this country with these two children.

"Let's go, let's take a look at the most prosperous place in this country."

Brett took his two children to the only city on the island, which is also the capital of the country.

Although it is the only city on the island, the construction of this city is not very good, not to mention comparing with Fishman Island, even compared with a small country like Prodence.

Of course, Prodence is still a member country under the government's command, and it cannot be directly compared with such a non-member country.

But looking at the low houses in the cities of this country, the dilapidated roads, and the civilians whose clothes are neater than the residents in the villages but still shabby, it is hard to say that this country is not bad among the non-member countries. up.

Of course, not all places in this city are dilapidated, poor and backward.

At least in the very center of the city, the place surrounded by slum-like housing blocks is a luxury block.

A river that came from nowhere separated the civilian area, and on the other side of the river were gorgeous houses.

The green plants are all over the road, and the people who walk here neatly look well-dressed.

"Eh?"

Standing by the river, Nana looked at the scene on the other side in astonishment. She exclaimed, "There is still such a place in this country! It's so beautiful!"

These buildings are indeed out of place with the whole city, but what is even more out of place is the wide palace surrounded by all the gorgeous buildings.

The area covered may be calculated in square kilometers, and even from a long distance, you can see the tall and raised spire of the castle, reflecting the golden color in the sunlight.

"Eh?"

Nana tilted her head, "Could it be that this country is actually very rich?"

"The specific reason will be known later."

Next is the key.

The time has come to night.

In this country, in that magnificent palace.

His Majesty the King of the Stoven Kingdom, the just 30-year-old Rakade II is a fat man.

In this country where the average person is skinny, his weight has reached an astonishing 1.6 catties, and his height is only [-] meters [-]. Every step he takes, the fat on his body is trembling.

So he simply asked four servants to carry him around the palace in a sedan chair decorated with gorgeous gems.

That night, just as Lakaide II was sitting on the throne and thinking about which favorite concubine's room he should go to sleep in, a strange voice suddenly sounded in the brightly lit palace.

"Don't shout and don't move,"

The voice came from behind the throne.

Along with the voice came a knife, sticking out from behind the throne and laying across his neck.

Cold and hard.

The face of His Majesty the king of this country froze instantly, but the only thing that was froze was his face.

As his body trembled, the fat on his body was also constantly trembling, and it seemed that there was even a layer of waves.

"Alas,"

After closing it, I heard another voice, which seemed to be a young girl, very disgusted, "This guy is disgusting."

In normal times, Lakaide II must have ordered the guards to drag this raving guy down and kill him.

But that's not the case now. The knife on his neck is breathing cold air, making His Majesty the king feel cold all over.

"You, what do you want to do?"

"I just want to ask you a question, just answer it honestly. Why is the rest of the country so poor, but why is the palace and the surrounding area so luxurious?"
