One Piece: Starting to read the file from the dragon-footed man

Chapter 61 60 The Majesty of the World Government

When Gula dragged his tired steps back to the resting warehouse with his companions, the sky was already so dark that he couldn't see his fingers.

Although they usually work as slaves for their master until evening, they can finish their work, eat food that is not delicious but can barely fill their stomachs, and finally return to the warehouse used to give them a rest, thus waiting for the next day. The day is coming.

Only recently, it may be that what was played on the screen touched the bottom line of the nobles, making them nowhere to vent their anger, and at the same time increasing their oppression of the slaves.

Not to mention that the work of the slaves is more tiring than before, and even when it is dark, they will not let them rest, but continue to work day and night.

Even the food has been reduced in portion and has become more difficult to swallow.

And this also led to the fact that in less than a week, there were already four slaves like him, who were exhausted to death in the never-ending slavery, and would never open their eyes again.

too tired.

Gula's body was exhausted, but there was nothing he could do about it in his heart.

No way, after all, they are slaves.

Regardless of status before freedom, after becoming a slave, it doesn't matter anymore.

They are bought by the master, and that is the property of the master.The value of living is to work for the master until death.

It's not that no one thought about escaping, but once they were caught, what awaited them was a punishment that was worse than death, and that punishment was comparable to torture.

Sighing, Gula walked forward slowly, his eyes unconsciously fell on the screen in front of him, and what he recalled in his mind was the scene when Li Guanqi was sharpening his knife and slashing at Julio.

In fact, when the screen first started playing, he had no interest in what was on it, even hated it.

——Because I want to know that the so-called saving the world, don't care, is just the innocent dream of children when they play house.

Pulling a group of people from one hell to another, and the saved people are definitely not like them, that is, slaves.

It's just giving them hope in vain, but there is no help to pull them out of hell.

But when he was working today, when he saw what was playing on the screen, he was really stunned.

【Perhaps this is just a trivial matter to you. You just abducted and sold people into the hands of slave traders. You made a lot of money without spending any money, and you didn't kill anyone. 】

The young man with the knife said so——

[Anyway, slave trade is rare in your circle of nobles, and the law allows it, so it is not a crime at all. 】

[I know the fate of slaves too well, so as an honest person, yes, especially as an honest person...]

[I'm so afraid that people like you can live in this world, so that every second of your panting makes me sleepless, and I'm so scared that I have a subconscious aversion to being alive. 】

Gula was stunned.

He suddenly remembered three years ago, when he was not a slave, but as a person - with a wife who loved him, and a lovely child. Although the life was not rich, they had plans for life and future plans. Looking forward to, but let their life is so happy.

But all of these were lost to nothing when he believed the promises of outsiders, and when he was abducted and sold to the "cargo ship" of the slave trader.

Especially when the scenes about the sufferings of the "black slaves" were interspersed with the young people's memories on the screen, he almost couldn't control his emotions.

Desperate, bloody, oppressive, no human rights at all...

Yes, this is the world of slaves.

If you want to live, you must not resist, and throw away all human dignity, so that even your past—if you want to live without pain—you must forget it all.

And before the slave traders sell you, they will continue to whip you, brainwash your identity as a slave, and force you to abandon your original name, so as to give you a new name as a slave, so as to deepen your brainwashing .

And as a slave, you'd better not resist the words of the slave traders.Otherwise they will torture you mercilessly.

As for the whip soaked in seawater, Gula has experienced it before.

The whipping hurt like fire, so that when he was whipped, he even thought that he had reached the purgatory of hell, and was whipped like an animal by the hateful and hateful little ghosts until he jumped into it. out of the hot oil pan.

Therefore, under such pain, surrender can only be a matter of course.

And in such grief and pain, Gula could no longer recall the faces of his wife and daughter, as well as those happy times...

Maybe he would recall it at the beginning, but with the passage of time and the endless oppression of the slaves by the nobles, he has become unable to recall those so-called "happiness".

Not for anything else, just because the so-called "happiness" has already become "pain" that he can't touch.

Looking back, there is no happiness, only despair.

In order to survive, he forced himself not to recall those past events, and now he cares more about whether he can complete the work assigned by his master on time than thinking about his wife and daughter.

Whether a tiring day can fill his hungry stomach, and whether his injured body will affect his work the next day, instead of continuing to be punished to make his body worse, smashing his three years of struggle and endurance to pieces.

It's just... He had already warned himself not to think about it again.

The faces of his wife and daughter and the once happy life came before his eyes again, Gula resisted the pain in his heart.

He said in his heart, enough is enough, he doesn't want to listen anymore.

Those words are useless to him, he has already given up...

Until the young man's voice sounded again—with a bit of coldness, with a bit of blood, and with a sense of destiny.

She made a move, facing the nobleman, holding the knife down, calmly and without hesitation.

[Actually, if you want me to say, the decay of the dynasty should have collapsed long ago, so what does it matter if a royal noble like you dies? 】

【Express the people, enslave human rights, despise life... Ha, before you die, let’s reform your pedantic thinking, my lord.You know, the current fashion trend is the tatakai of the revolutionaries. 】

She said such rebellious speeches so calmly, as if she really thought so, rather than a moment of anger.

【You, you may be the first to die, but you will definitely not be the last. 】

[I promise, if the situation requires, I will also raise those other royal nobles who have no eyes like you, so that you can form a football team to have fun while you are soaking in the frying pan in hell. 】

[I mean, you have to die, this matter is not negotiable. 】

Bloody yet sharp, calm but assertive.

The scenes between young people and nobles are not long after being edited on the screen.

It was obviously more than two hours, but after compression, there were only ten minutes left.

But these ten minutes brought people, especially the slaves, a huge impact.

Deafening.

Gula can only use this word to describe the turmoil in his heart at this moment.

It seemed as if he suddenly had the courage to live like a walking dead—if that can be called alive—after three full years, the soul he threw away seemed to be picked up by him a little after that.

In the end, he didn't know how he got back to the barn. He just woke up screaming in the middle of the night when he suddenly dreamed of the dead nobleman on the screen.

When he came back to his senses, he suddenly realized that he was screaming and pinching the throat of a person sleeping next to him, while his friend Raphael was restraining his limbs behind him, so as to prevent him from really strangle people to death.

Most of the slaves around were awakened, but there was no panic on their faces, they just looked at Gula silently, and when they saw that he was awake, they silently pulled the victim away from him.

"I'm sorry..."

Gula was stunned in a daze, with a dazed expression on his face, "I'm having a nightmare... I mean, I'm sorry."

The person who was strangled was still in shock, but because he knew Gula's character, he didn't show any anger. After confirming that his injury was not in the way, he waved his hands tiredly, turned over and fell asleep again.

Gula: "..."

Rafael patted Gula on the shoulder, and comforted his friend to the warehouse door.

There was a long silence, and in the silence, there were occasional creaking and sniffing sounds between the slaves and the wooden boards when they turned over.

"You're stunned," Raphael said.

Gula didn't speak, but looked at his hands in a daze, feeling the warmth remaining on them, recalling the scene just now.

For a moment, he even thought that the people he was pinching were not slaves, but the masters of these slaves, the so-called noble lords on the screen.

"Rafael, that plan of yours... count me in as well."

After a long time, Gula smiled wryly in the dark.

"Although I don't know if it will succeed, but this time..."

His eyes gradually became firm, and with a little intimacy, he said like a dream: "I want to be with you."

*
On the screen, the actions of Li Guanqi and Ji Ye reminded the world government of their repeatedly offended majesty.

When Ji Ye was able to defeat the former member of CP9, Benoit Schmidt Jr., they already felt the pressure.

Even Schmidt had just officially joined cp9 at that time, and his strength was only moderate, but the world government didn't think that it was an existence that could be easily defeated by Ji Ye.

Even if they are defeated, they will definitely pay a heavy price.

After all, the agents specially trained by the world government at that time were superhuman beings.

Not to mention that Schmidt is also proficient in the sixth form of the navy, and is also a devil fruit-the ability user of the frost fruit.

At least in the first half of the great voyage, the strength of the members of cp9 is undisturbed. For most people, they are existences worthy of worship, awe, and fear.

So much so that before the fight started, all the officials in the office did not hesitate to think that this was a battle without suspense at all.

Not only did Li Guanqi and Ji Ye have no chance of winning at all, even if they really fought, let alone being crushed, they would be considered powerful if they could last for a few minutes.

As for winning, it is impossible, so the final outcome can only be that the two reload the file and avoid Schmidt.

But now...they actually won!
Everyone can't believe it, but the facts are in front of them and they can't help but not believe it.

But the most troublesome thing for them was not Schmidt's defeat, but what Schmidt revealed, the secrets about [Platinum Lead] held by the world government.

After all, although mining [platinum lead] will cause people to be poisoned by [platinum lead], at the same time, it has a very huge use value in scientific research.

Because it has the advantages of corrosion resistance and radiation resistance, it is often processed into plates and pipes, and is widely used in industrial sectors such as chemical industry, cables, batteries and radiation protection.

Especially after Vegapunk researched chemical weapons and discovered that lead can prevent radiation, the world government completely focused on the country of Frevans, and reached an agreement with the local aristocratic class and royal family.

While inducing the people of Frevans to mine [Platinum Lead], at the same time, they purchased [Platinum Lead] from Frevans at a relatively low price until [Platinum Lead Disease] broke out in this country .

And in order to finish, so that the fox's tail was exposed, the world government even incited public opinion.

While secretly inciting neighboring countries to suppress and exclude them, they also reported the harm of [platinum lead disease]-even if they knew that [platinum lead disease] was not contagious at all.

But in order to silence the public, the world government did not make a statement on this, and even secretly suppressed the statement that [platinum lead disease] is not contagious.

You must know that back then, the world government’s control over public opinion was so absolute that when everyone, including doctors, was panicking about [platinum-lead disease], no one cared what the country of Frevans was. How many people died because of [platinum lead disease].

And it caused those people who knew nothing about the truth, after knowing the demise of Frevans, they only felt that this was a rare good thing, not a tragic disaster.

And this matter should have been forgotten by people with the passage of time. Even if it was mentioned occasionally, they would never notice the truth of the matter... until this damn thing, the screen appeared!

The world government has no way to deal with this, and can only watch the screen unreservedly expose the truth of the year to people all over the world bit by bit.

Although now, people are still in awe of the strength and majesty of the World Government, and it is not easy to say much in public, but privately they have begun to have some doubts about the World Government's decision-making.

Although the problem is not big, it has indeed damaged the prestige of the world government invisibly.

"Have you contacted the president of World Economic News, Morgans?"

Some officials ordered their subordinates to control public opinion as soon as the content was broadcast on the screen.

"No, the phone has been disconnected, sir."

"Then go and contact the spies we planted in the World Economic News, and you must not report anything that is unfavorable to the World Government! Otherwise, this will be a serious blow to the World Government's external reputation!"

"Yes! Got it! I'll make arrangements now!"

The subordinates left with the task they had just arranged.

But before the official in charge of the matter could breathe a sigh of relief, another subordinate rushed into the office in a panic, holding a bunch of "bolu bolu", as if they were gathering together and singing in a chorus.

"It's not good, sir!" He reported helplessly, "Many nobles have called, asking us to give them an explanation for what we said about Li Guanqi! Ask us..."

Before he could finish speaking, a phone bug happened to fall from his subordinate's arms, the microphone dropped and was accidentally connected.

Then suddenly the nobleman's roar and abuse sounded in the microphone, and listening to the voice - yes, it was the nobleman killed by Li Guanqi on the screen - Julio Adalberto

"Hello?! Damn it! What's going on on the screen?! Can you..."

Official: "..."

Officials have a headache.

Damn it, just thinking about the secret about [Platinum Lead] revealed on the screen, completely forgetting that in this world, Julio is still alive, and he is still alive and well...

Thinking of this, the official couldn't help rubbing his painful temples, and sat back on the chair with a bitter face.

Ah, I'm so tired... I really want to quit my job.

　In fact, there is nothing about the role of [Platinum Lead] in Pirates, and whether the world government has intervened in this matter.

　　So this article contains a lot of private and conspiracy theories that I made up in my head, just enjoy reading it, don't take it seriously.
