BXBX NOVEL Chapter 781
At this moment, the city was also in ruins. In a castle at the highest point, a young man looked at the outside from the balcony with worry.
“King…”
A servant bowed behind him and said, “There is information that our army was attacked by pirates when we marched into Bohm village and it seems that we have been completely wiped out.”
Bang!
The young man punched the edge of the balcony and clenched his fists tightly. “That’s a mine with bomb rock! How dare those pirates do this? Our people are still there!”
The attendant did not dare to speak and only lowered his head.
The young man took a few deep breaths and asked, “What about Father? How is his condition?”
The attendant paused for a moment and shook his head. “King Noadi’s condition is very bad. His arm has…”
These words made the young man clench his fists even tighter, as if he was going to bleed. “That straw hat!!”
“But Father has gone too far. If he wasn’t so violent, he wouldn’t have become like this. However, I will definitely take revenge for Straw Hat! What about the World Government, haven’t they sent their people here yet?”
“Yes, we haven’t received the news yet. If it is an inspection, they may not inform us…” The attendant said.
The young man looked worried and murmured, “Will this country really be taken by the World Government?”
… .
In the stone village, Kuro led his people in and stopped in front of a stone house that looked like a furnace. The door of the house was also a stone door, but it was half closed at this time. Kuro pushed the door directly and entered.
The layout inside was very simple. The stone table, stone bed, and stone furniture were all made of stone, but at the wall, there was a man who looked like a soldier nailed there.
His hands were pressed together and his palms were pierced by a large nail and stuck firmly in the wall.
His feet were the same. The heels on both sides were pierced by nails and he was covered in blood. Next to him were whips and clamps, all of which were covered in blood.
“I won’t give in…”
As if hearing the noise, the soldier did not even raise his head and murmured weakly.
“Was he abused…”
Kuro frowned slightly and hooked his finger. The nail on it was pulled out.
The soldier cried out in pain and fell to the ground.
“Lida.”
“Got it.”
Leda stepped forward and touched the soldier’s back with her palm. “Vital energy feedback!”
Under the infusion of powerful essence energy, the injured area of the soldier was gradually healing, and the penetrated palm and heel gradually grew flesh.
“This, this is…”
The recovered state made the soldier look up at Kuro and others blankly.
“Marines?”
After a long time, the soldier reacted and looked at these people in Marine uniforms and said, “Marines… You are sent by the World Government?!”
“It’s very clear.”
Kuro lit a cigar and said, “Are you a soldier of this country? I want to find you to understand the situation. What is wrong with this country? This is the country of pirates, right? Why do you soldiers still exist?”
The Pirate Country should be full of pirates.
But if a soldier comes to clean up the pirates, the problem will be different.
“Finally, finally came?!”
The soldier said excitedly: “Please save us! Those pirates are completely rioting! Ever since that Straw Hat kid came and defeated our late king, everything has been in chaos!”
“Tell me the situation first, why you came here, and the specific situation of your country.” Kuro bit his cigar and said.
The Kingdom of Korf used to be a country of pirates. Later, after their former king, Korf Noadi, came to power, he turned pirates into slaves and used them to mine for labor so that no one in this country dared to be a pirate.
Because as long as a pirate comes to this place, he will definitely be treated as a slave, whether he is a big pirate or a small pirate.
Noadi’s strength alone and this specialty bomb rock can do it.
He had ruled for more than twenty years.
But since Straw Hat came, everything changed. He defeated the king and released those pirates. Although a group of pirates sailed, more pirates stayed on the island to vent their anger and revenge.
This village called Bohm was avenged by pirates. There were originally citizens here, but after the pirates came, there were not many people left.
When the current king heard this news, he extracted a portion of his limited forces to eliminate the pirates, but they were raided before they could approach, and only a few people escaped.
In addition to the civilians in this village, the vein of ‘Bomb Rock’ is also here. If it is occupied by pirates, there will be more trouble.
However, they did not know the location of the mineral vein, so the soldier was still alive and wanted to get the exact location of the mineral vein from him.
The excavation of the bomb rock is hidden in the stone mine. This island has all such things, but there are always more and less of them. The place where they gather is the mineral vein, but not many people know about this place.
The former slave miners knew, but the slaves in this area had already sailed.
Gervaise and the others came from other places and did not know about the mineral vein, so they naturally could not mine bomb rocks.
“Isn’t that normal?”
After listening to the soldier, Kuro said, “There are consequences for taking people as slaves. I just didn’t expect that after the Fisher Tiger incident, someone would dare to openly take slaves.”
Even Tenryubito is covered up by the World Government. Although everyone knows it, covering it up and not covering it up are two different things.
Even if Fisher Tiger climbed into Mary Joa with his bare hands, the matter of freeing the slaves was covered up.
No country is as blatant as this one.
Riots are something that will definitely happen.
“But your new king is okay and knows how to protect civilians… at least he sent you.”
Kuro exhaled smoke and said, “So, you know the location of the mineral vein?”
“Yes, I know, but I didn’t say it. He is actually on the hillside level in the north. There is a lot of bomb rock there, but it needs special tools to mine it. If it is a simple mine, it will cause an explosion,” the soldier said.
A special existence like the bomb rock is mined in this country with special tools. It is covered with a layer of lice that is like a bubble film. Only this kind of impactless and elastic thing can dig out the bomb rock.
Ordinary means are naturally useless.
“Okay, I got it.”
Kuro nodded. “Someone bring him to rest and then we will set off and go directly to the capital. I will meet the king. As for me, I will walk around. The scenery here is not bad. I will take a look at the terrain.”
“Please be quick…”
The soldier pursed his lips and said, “I heard that those pirates have gathered and are ready to take revenge on us, but even if it is because of King Noadi, the new King Aquitaine is right. He is a king who loves the people. He is innocent and so are those civilians. Those pirates should not have attacked them.”
