My friends are all pirates

Those were some well-armed gladiators.

The origin of a sword fighter can be seen from its equipment, physique and mental state.

The most common types of gladiators come from gladiator schools. These schools are invested by wealthy businessmen or famous families. These schools not only include basic hardware facilities such as single-room dormitories, training grounds, and weapon arsenals, but also require equipment masters, trainers, and doctors. The operation team is composed of professionals such as the Gladiator. The gladiator has sufficient food supply, timely medical treatment and a comfortable rest environment. There are also quite professional fighters and blacksmiths to hone their skills and build weapons for them. Therefore, most of the gladiator equipment is Brought out of the gladiator school.

If the family conditions are good enough, then there is no need to go to school, and you can completely train at home, with better equipment and generally taller stature.

So Asherid took a look at the past, and basically judged that these sword fighters came from families with relatively good economic conditions, and this kind of sword fighters were represented by nobles.

These people had good eyesight. As soon as they walked out, they saw Asherid and Violet behind him.

Of course the sword fighters knew the former princess of their own country, but they just took a look and didn't pay attention. Their eyes were all on Asherid.

Ah Sherid saw this group of people rushing towards him.

His first reaction was that these people thought about it, and the more they thought about it, the angrier they became, and they still wanted to kill Violet.

After all, it looks menacing.

So Ashred stepped in front of Violet, making it look like he was going to stop the gladiators - and he really thought so.

For a fee, he meant it.

How could it be possible for someone to cut off the person who paid the money casually, even the family members.

Seeing that this group of people were running faster and faster, Asherid decided to show off his muscles so that the group of violent people could calm down.

then……

"Your Majesty the King! You are finally here!"

Ashred: "???"

Violet: "..."

It's not that the little princess doesn't know that the sky is about to change, but the people who loved her family in the past called someone else a king in front of her princess, and she found that she might have overestimated her ability to bear it.

She wants to cry now.

Because, among this group of sliders, she even knew someone from a familiar noble family.

The other party knew her too, but he didn't even look at her.

Dressrosa has abandoned her father.

The sword fighters rushed in front of Al Sherid, and surrounded him three layers in and out. Amidst a series of clanging sounds, these sword fighters made the same movements as their counterparts in the palace. They knelt down on one knee , drew the sword and fell on the ground.

Although Ah Sherid didn't understand what was going on, he was shocked—he learned another posture of Lai Fei, but he could never use this posture in his life.

"Several dishes, drink like this." Yasherid laughed angrily, "Come, come, see clearly, who I am."

Not a whiff of alcohol.

But it's not that he's drunk, how can he say such stupid words.

Although this world is called One Piece, pirates are definitely recognized as social scum. It is one thing to do business with pirates, but it is another thing to recognize and incorporate them into society.

One of the reasons why almost all townspeople despise sailors is that they think that all sailors are potential pirates, and they are social garbage that do nothing except drinking, clubbing and fighting.

Except for some special circumstances, only the king of a pirate country will be a pirate.

Dressrosa in the comics is a special case, but in this time and space, it is obviously different.

"Your Majesty Longland Diyuan, you misunderstood, we are looking for you, please become the king of Dressrosa!"

Asherid passed this sentence in his mind for a while, and he felt that the meaning of this sentence was——I really have no money, and there is no reward for it, only thanks!

As expected of a sword fighter, really strong.

It's a pity that he was very rigid when it came to charging.

"Heh..." Asherid sneered, he didn't have such a good temper towards the nobles, "Don't do this with me, it's business, you want the aunt to come and collect it."

OK, he's not the emperor of the sea, that's what Charlotte Lingling always is.

And he didn't lie, he didn't take the money today, and Charlotte Lingling will still send someone to get it tomorrow, if the Dressrosa royal family doesn't give money, then the next time it will be Charlotte Lingling herself .

When the emperor of the sea ran out in person, it was probably not for money.

Wan Guo does not engage in slavery, but it is still a group of pirates who rob houses and rob houses, and will be infinitely violent when necessary.

Hearing Asherid's words, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay.

This direction was completely unconsidered.

It's not rejection, but...

I don't believe it at all!

To be honest, when it comes to debt repudiation, the people present are indeed veterans.

Some people have even accumulated a staggering amount of debts to merchants, and merchants are willing to expand the scale of credit in this way. In addition to receiving the patronage of the powerful, it is a thing worth cherishing. Refusing to further lend money to a noble to reduce losses also requires a strong will and Willingness—Once the debt is in arrears, it is difficult to know when it can be stopped. As long as the interest can be paid, it is a more practical choice to renew the temporary debt that was originally only six months to one year year after year.

But God is sorry, they really want Asherid to be their king today. After the incident with the Rick family, they really realized that the times have changed dramatically!

Without a strong boss, sooner or later people will be in trouble. Anything that uses violence is a beast. In this era, it is already a beautiful word to deceive oneself and others.

Asherid, in the name of Longland Diyuan, created another myth of the arena. This is not a pirate who became the king, but a sword fighter who became the king of Dressrosa.

"Your Majesty Longland Diyuan, we Dressrosa people have reached a consensus on this, I implore you to ascend the throne and become the king of this country."

The sword fighters plucked up their courage and persuaded one after another.

"From now on, your will will be our will!"

Their attitude was so sincere that Ashred, who originally thought they were playing tricks, couldn't help but become suspicious.

However, this matter is very nonsense when viewed horizontally and vertically, and he finally couldn't help reading his mind with his knowledge.

If you don't read it, you don't know, and you will be shocked when you read it.

"Fuck!" Ashred was shocked, "Are you serious!?"

"Your Majesty Longland Diyuan, these are our sincere words." A half-kneeling sword fighter looked expectant, "You are also from Dressrosa."

Yeah?Then he really didn't pay attention.

Ah Sherid felt a headache, he still prefers to deal with unruly people.

But his knowledge told him that this group of people really wanted to hang out with him.

The celestial phenomena in the new world are outrageous enough, but the people in this new world are even more outrageous.

Asherid looked at the black crowd of gladiators kneeling in front of him, and he knew that this time, not to mention making money, he might even pay back.

Chapter 220 IX From Pirate to King

It stands to reason that after traveling for two rounds, and even being a slave, there shouldn't be any fuss about Asherid.

At least it should not change face.

but……

People in this new world are too good at playing.

But Acherid is not a man of hypocrisy.

Dressrosa is in a position that is very suitable for expanding the commercial order. There is a relatively mature way of coexistence between the commercial order represented by merchants and the violent order represented by the king. Therefore, despite the population and land, Dressrosa The area is very limited, but it can still be called a powerful country in the New World, a place full of troubled times and heroes.

If Dressrosa can become the king of this country while retaining the original value of Dressrosa, then he must have earned it.

There is no need to worry about Charlotte Lingling at all, he has already made sure of it during this period—as long as she doesn't get sick, Charlotte Lingling's thinking will be very active.

"Let's talk about something practical." Asherid said to the elites who represented Dressrosa's social organization in front of him, "If the king is a pirate, you will definitely be disqualified from joining the country. Regarding this, you Can you accept it too?"

Everyone, look at me, and I look at you.

"Your Majesty, why did we join the pirates?" said a sword fighter who looked particularly well-equipped, "We are at odds with the pirates."

Ashred: "...I didn't hear you clearly, please say it again."

"You are the strongest sword fighter in Dressrosa, the one who saved the country from the brutal Ricks and pirates." The man spoke more and more smoothly, and it can be seen that he is now very confident, "You He is the king of Dressrosa, so what does he have to do with pirates?"

"Lao Tzu belongs to Wan Guo now!"

"Your Majesty has a little hobby, isn't it normal?"

The sword fighter asked in surprise.

Ashred shook his head, feeling very disappointed.

Also, how can there be such a good thing.

"Okay, I'm very clear about your desire to protect the country, let's spend money to buy peace."

It doesn't matter what the reason is.

Either these people are used to internal thinking, or he, Asherid, doesn't understand the world government.

He personally thinks the former is more likely.

Don't look at him leading the fleet of all nations to kill the navy. This is actually not a big deal. Pirates and the navy, at least, have not risen to the level that Mary Gioia cares about. To the pirates, the five old stars only have the emperor of the sea in their eyes .

But if Asherid became the king of Dressrosa, the concept would be different.

Asherid has a strong point, and now he is not easy to be noticed by the old bastards like Wulaoxing - he is protected by the emperor of the sea behind him, which is different from being the emperor of the sea after all.

This is a world where mighty power belongs to itself, and the violent order occupies an absolute dominant position.

Hearing what Asherid said, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, looking embarrassed.

As representatives of Dressrosa society, a group of people who best represent the elite class of One Piece world society, from the beginning, no one actually thought that Asherid would refuse to become the king of Dressrosa.

Even if he made a proposal to reject it, he just felt that Asherid was considering the reaction of the nations.

The king of a country, how could anyone refuse.

Dressrosa is not a grass chicken kingdom, among other things, the king of Dressrosa is a frequent visitor to the World Conference, which shows his status in the world government.

If they didn't know that they didn't have that ability, none of them would want to be that.

So, as a group of efficient people, they have already released the news of the new king's enthronement after confirming the popular opinion.

"What's your expression?" Ashred looked suspicious.

This group of people squatted with constipated expressions on their faces, and they knew something was wrong at a glance.

"That..." It was the same sword fighter who had already been a young bird, he laughed dryly, "Actually, we thought you would agree, so..."

Ashred frowned.

Cut first and then play?

That doesn't make sense.

"We have already contacted Mary Joya to register..."

"Then you guys are really awesome." Asherid admired, "If you work harder, I don't think it's impossible to earn money by killing demons."

"Mary Gioia said, please attend the next World Conference."

The World Conference, which is held every four years, seems to be about a year away from its re-opening.

As the "initial member" of the world government, the identity of the founding country is more or less valuable. For example, seats at the World Conference are easier to obtain than other countries.

But the World Conference...

To put it bluntly, it is a group of franchise kings from all over the world gathered together to chat.

If it's just this so-called "benefit", then don't even think about it.

Wan Guo is much more fragrant than this.

He didn't want to spend his limited time on fighting people's minds.

"I'm sorry, I'm seasick." Ashred rebuffed.

"Why don't you? Tell me what you want?" The sword fighter, who has become the representative of everyone for no reason, cursed in his heart that my teammates are all sluts, and still asked very respectfully, "Our country It's actually pretty good."

Although it seems that the Dressrosa people are eager to invite Asherid to be king, but the survival of this island is obviously more important than a few gossips.

"You said you want me to be your king, so I won't ask why you are looking for pirates." Ashred started first, and then continued to ask, "I'm not a pacifist like King Rick, if If you want me to be king, then I need to obey, you need to go out with me to fight wars and go to other countries, and I will prohibit slavery."

Everyone was stunned.

What they're thinking now is—that's it?
