Pirate Journalist

Chapter 269 Arrangements for the slaves
No wind belt.

Inside a deserted island.

Bree supported a huge mirror, and then people came out of it continuously.

There were so many people that it took a long time for all of them to come out.

It was not until people came out that they realized that this place was not empty, and that three groups of people had stayed here long ago, and they seemed to be the ones to respond.

Tiger glanced at Rujinping, Aaron and others who were originally arranged here. These people were gathering together, watching the slaves whispering, excited and sad.

Then he looked at some other humans. He remembered that they were several of Tezolo's subordinates, and they were also talking to each other at the moment.

These two groups of people were arranged by them, and they were all prepared.

But the other group of people who appeared made Tiger a little suspicious.

Said it was a group of people, but in fact it was just two people.

One had a dark green cloak, and someone who had never had such an impression appeared in his memory, while the other wore a white hooded outfit, which looked very much like the Murphy he remembered.

He turned his head to look at Tezolo, with a puzzled look on his face, as if he was asking why there were two unplanned people.

"You guessed who he is, don't you?" Tezzolo explained: "You know, he is the one who knows the plan, but in our judgment, he will not come in person, maybe the situation will Something changed, so he showed up."

He was actually a little surprised in his heart, after all, he thought that Murphy was just here to watch the show and would leave after the matter was over.

Unexpectedly, he finally appeared at the destination, and even brought a person he didn't even know.

Tezolo narrowed his eyes, judging that this person should have a great relationship with Murphy, otherwise he would not have brought him to such an important place.

"That's right!"

Tiger nodded. Although he had speculated about the relationship between Tezolo and Murphy before, judging from Tezolo's tone, he didn't seem to know that Murphy would come.

But it's okay, he was just a little surprised.

It was an honor for Murphy to witness this moment.

After the crowd gradually settled down, Tiger, the only person who showed his face, walked up the steps and said to the slaves below: "I think there are countless questions in everyone's mind during this journey, such as why you have to take such a big risk? I will save you from the risks, such as how to leave here, how to get rid of the status of slaves, and so on.

I will only pick a few key points to answer, and you will gradually know the rest in the future. "

After he finished speaking, he tore off his shirt, revealing red skin and a mark that all slaves were very familiar with.

"Slave Brand!?"

A burst of exclamation resounded throughout the underground space, and all the slaves were very surprised.

In the eyes of the world, this brand has a nice name, called Tian Xianglong's Hoof, but only they know that no matter how nice it is called, it is the slave brand.

"I know that some people already regard me as a hero in their hearts, but what I want to tell you is that I am not a hero, I am just your compatriot!" Tiger said loudly: "And, I believe some people have already seen it , I am just the executor of this operation, and it is not me who really determines whether this operation will succeed."

His gaze first glanced at Tezolo and Bree, and then turned his head to look at Murphy who was wearing a white hood in the distance, nodded slightly, and then continued: "It's just that not everyone's identity is suitable. It’s just showing, and I think everyone understands that.”

Everyone saw Tiger's actions just now.

At this moment, I also understand that what Tiger said can really determine the success of the action is the few people who are watched.

It's just a pity that these people were either hoods or cloaks, and no one showed their faces.

However, the slaves also understood that, as Tiger said, some people had sensitive identities, and once revealed, they would definitely cause riots.

I understand, I understand, but I still feel very sorry, I don't know who the remaining benefactors are.

"So, now let me talk about the issues that everyone is most concerned about, how to leave here and how to survive in the future." Tiger clapped his hands, and attracted everyone's attention, and said: "First of all, I will tell you that considering the environment of my hometown The resettlement methods of the murlocs are different from other races."

He didn't explain carefully, but pointed to an open space and said, "Murloc brothers stand here, and I will arrange for you."

Then, pointing to Tezolo, he said, "Friends of humans and other races will be arranged by him."

After finishing speaking, Tiger took the first step to the clearing he had just pointed to.

He stood here, waiting for the murlocs to come out of the crowd and slowly gather in front of him, while the Jingping who had been waiting at the side also came from a distance.

Tiger is going to tell everyone about the plan of the Sun Pirates and the idea of ​​​​covering the hooves of Tian Xianglong with the sun brand.

Speaking of which, he was very prestigious among the murlocs, and some of the murloc slaves already knew him. This was one of the reasons why the few of them who led the team along the way quickly gained the trust of most of the slaves.

Just when Tiger started to explain, the human side also turned all their eyes to Tezolo.

His eyes were full of apprehension and anxiety, as well as expectations for the future.

However, when Tezolo was about to speak, a palm patted his shoulder.

"Let me come."

A calm and crisp voice suddenly rang in Tezolo's ear, which shocked him suddenly.

He subconsciously wanted to attack, but at that moment, he realized in time that it was Murphy's voice, and stopped the car.

He even approached him quietly, but he didn't respond at all.

As expected of Mr. Murphy!
Tezolo took a few steps back with horror and awe, giving up his place on the steps.

This obvious priority made everyone understand that the person who led them to escape all the way was inferior to the man in white.

"I won't introduce myself, just cut straight to the point." Murphy glanced at the slave, and the whole scene suddenly fell silent. It seemed that he felt an inexplicable pressure, and it seemed that everyone subconsciously held their breath, hoping to hear The person speaks.

"If you want to go home, you can go home directly. There will be a ship to take you. Don't worry about this. As for the marks on your body, you can burn them with fire, or you can use another brand to cover them. These methods sound cruel. , but probably nothing to those of you who have experienced sheer misery."

As soon as these words were said, some slaves were immediately pleasantly surprised.

Not only did he escape, but he also arranged for a ship to be sent back to his hometown. He even considered how to remove the imprint, which is really great!

As for the pain caused by the burning and branding, it really doesn't matter to them.

Some slaves have even become accustomed to torture such as burning and branding because they met a wicked Tianlong master.

Murphy looked at the surprised slaves, then at the many unresponsive people, and continued, "As for the homeless people, I can find you a remote place where you can form a village." Even in towns, where you can gather together for warmth, life should be fine."

As this choice was made, the people who had no expressions just now showed surprise.

This is already the best way to deal with it.

In such a place, everyone is born as a slave, there is no discrimination, and they help each other to form a big family together, and they will have a bright future.

"It's just..." Murphy paused, his gaze swept across the crowd again: "I don't think everyone will be satisfied with these two arrangements."

After simply scanning the crowd with his eyes, he did find that a small number of people were indifferent to these two arrangements.

This made Murphy nodded slightly, slightly satisfied.

However, Murphy was satisfied, but the others were surprised.

These two arrangements should cover all possibilities, either home or homelessness.

Why are there still people who are dissatisfied with both arrangements?
Could it be that you feel that the arrangement is not good enough and you want to make progress? ?

They don't understand, it's a great fortune to be able to escape from the Holy Land, what else is there to be dissatisfied with?
However, when they were thinking this way, the man in white in front of them spoke again: "So, for those who are not satisfied with the first two plans, I have another option here."

The atmosphere seemed to become more oppressive in an instant, and everyone felt heavy in their hearts, as if they could sense that the next choice was not ordinary.

"Those who want to rebel against the world government, and those who want to pull the Tianlong people from the altar, can follow me." Murphy's tone is very light, very light, but the words in it seem to hit the heart directly: "It is to continue As a piece of fish on a cutting board, should it be turned into an extremely sharp knife, should it bear shame and hide in a corner for the rest of its life, or should it turn this shame into fuel and let the anger burn throughout the whitewashed peace of the world? With me, you will Have the right to choose resistance and revolution."

The crowd who were still arguing just now suddenly became extremely quiet.

All the slaves looked at Murphy with surprise and horror in their eyes, as if they never thought that the last option was a road of resistance.

In fact, in most people's minds, there is no thought of resistance at all.

They seem to feel that being bullied and exploited by Tianlong people has become an extremely normal thing.

If caught as a slave, it is just bad luck to be caught and selected.

The 800 years of the world government hanging over their heads has already formed this habit for generations.

And the power of habit is terrible.

But not everyone regards this as a habit. In the hearts of a few people, although the grief and indignation are deeply buried because they cannot see hope, as long as there is a little possibility, they will choose to fight.

And the man in white in front of him provided the possibility of this kind of resistance.

"I want to resist, why should I be enslaved by Tianlong people by nature!?"

"Me too! I must take revenge for what they did to me and my family!!"

After a few slaves recovered from Murphy's words, they immediately raised their fists to show their positions.

These people were also the ones Murphy remained indifferent when he gave the first two choices.

The voice of resistance stunned the fellow slaves. They suddenly realized that although they were both escaped slaves and had gone through the same escape journey, their hearts were completely different.

It was at this time that they discovered that the Tianlong people could actually be resisted.

This kind of discovery breaks the power of habit, and makes many people feel a little bit more about to move.

Gradually, some people began to change their positions and joined the ranks of resistance.

In other places, these people will never change their positions.

But the facts at hand tell them that if it is led by the man in white and his companions, rebellion is possible.

After all, the fact that they escaped as slaves has proved everything.

"Master Murphy, do you want to strike while the iron is hot?" Tezolo walked behind Murphy and asked softly.

He could already see that Murphy wanted to recruit some slaves, but seeing that although more and more people chose to resist, the silent ones still accounted for the majority, which made him a little anxious.

He felt that as long as he fanned the flames a little at this time, more people would make up their minds to stand up and resist.

And once more than half of the people choose to resist, then more people will follow the herd.

In the end, those who choose not to resist will become outliers.

Nobody wants to be outliers, and that pushes people even more to be on the side of the resistance.

Therefore, at this time, we must fan the flames in order to maximize the benefits of this liberation movement.

But after observing for a while, he found that Murphy had never intervened. Being puzzled, he couldn't help but stepped forward to remind him.

"There's no need to intervene." Murphy glanced at Tezolo for a day, then shook his head: "At the beginning of the revolution, we want people who are determined in their hearts. For those who are vacillating, it's better to go home and take care of them."

"I see, I was thinking about it." Tezuolo responded and backed away.

Is Murphy missing someone?
No shortage.

With Murphy's current status, if he wants to do something, many people will definitely follow suit.

And most of them are pirates who have a certain reputation at sea, and their priority is definitely above that of slaves.

Therefore, if Murphy wanted manpower, he only needed to say a word on the sea, and people would continue to join him.

But what if the event is the overthrow of the world government?

That's not necessarily the case.

So what Murphy wants are those who want to resist the world government from the bottom of their hearts, and at the same time, he only wants those people.

"The number of people is quite large, which makes me very pleased. It seems that you still have the last trace of dignity and courage in your heart."

Murphy clapped his hands to silence the scene.

He observed that there were about 200 people, which naturally only accounted for a small part compared to all the slaves, but it exceeded his expectations.

Afterwards, he continued: "Of course, I fully understand those who did not make this choice. No one wants to be low-status and not fight. It's just that there are many factors that can affect the choice. Maybe it's family, maybe it's friends. , maybe a country, maybe even an agreement, etc., so whatever is fine, as long as you can make a choice with a clear conscience."

Murphy pointed to Tezolo behind him and said, "Next, he will arrange your itinerary. All you have to do is obey the arrangement and keep it secret."

Then, he pointed to Drago who was wearing a dark green cloak not far away, and said: "As for those who are willing to stand up and resist, gather at him, and he will tell you that this flight is not the end, but the beginning of everything." .”
