Ainz Urgon of the Great Pirate

Chapter 248 The World Meeting of Franchise Countries 2
"I object, you are simply making fun of the lives of your subjects." Pimes yelled at the king present with a red face.

The splattered saliva and the bulging veins made Pimax look not like the king of a country at all, but a sideshow in a roadside quarrel.

Cobra looked at Pymes worriedly.

As the king of the Gleevec Kingdom, Pimes is one of the few kings that Cobra can identify with.

Cobra's eyes swept across the audience, except for a few people, all the other kings had mocking smiles on their faces.

as predicted.

"Oh, if His Highness Pimes disagrees with us, then His Highness Pimes will cover our expenses. Our Boyatu Kingdom is not as rich as your Gleevec Kingdom." Angel didn't care about participating in the world. The faces of the naval representatives of the Confederate States Conference have become rather ugly.

While talking, Angel began to pick his nostrils and said, without any regard for his status as king.

"Pong." Pimax slapped the conference table in front of him fiercely, making a loud noise.

"After Whitebeard's death, more and more pirates in this sea fought for the space that Whitebeard left blank, and the number of pirates also continued to rise. At this time, you actually want to reduce the military expenditure provided to the navy to Two-thirds of the original."

"Is there any problem? Your Highness Pimes." Angel casually flicked away the booger stuck to his fingertips, and said mockingly. "The navy is not the army of my Boyatu Kingdom. As for the pirates, my army will naturally deal with them. Since my army can deal with the pirates, I didn't directly cut off the navy's military spending. Isn't that enough?"

In the world of One Piece, in addition to the navy, each country also has its own army, otherwise the navy alone cannot resist the endless stream of pirates.

Not to mention the war between kingdoms, bandits, rebels, and navy will not intervene.

Moreover, the islands guarded by most of the naval bases basically do not belong to any country.

This is one reason why these kings wanted to cut naval spending.

……

"You?!" Pimes' fingers trembled slightly, pointing at the kings in front of him, especially Angel.

Different from the Boyatu Kingdom in the West Sea, the Gleevec Kingdom, which is in the center of the first half of the great route, understands the horror of pirates even more, even the Gleevec Kingdom with a deep foundation.

There is no way to rely on the power of one's own country to deal with the swarming pirates.

There are three naval branches in the Gleevec Kingdom, which is why Pimax firmly disagrees with this proposal.

After all, compared with the stable kingdom army, it is easier for the pirates and the navy who are constantly fighting to produce strong ones.

……

"Pimes, according to the usual practice, as long as more than half of the people agree, then my proposal will be passed, so let's start voting!"

Angel was tired of arguing with Pimes, and in Angel's view, Pimes was just an idiot.

He was obviously doing it for the interests of the kings, but Pymes actually fought for the interests of the so-called navy.

In this case.Angel was too lazy to maintain the face of the king, and called Pymes by name.

……

Angel glanced over the kings at the meeting.

"I agree."

"agree."

……

"You see, Pimes, Your Highness, Your Majesty." Angel's tone was full of mockery. "If you want, you will be responsible for those naval military expenses."

After seeing his proposal passed, the excited Angel didn't notice the mockery in the eyes of the surrounding kings at all.

Angel is not just a target they have launched.

Although they all wanted to reduce the military expenditure of the navy, these kings would not be so stupid as to propose to leave a bad image on the navy headquarters.

After all, the navy would not be sympathetic to the first person who put forward this proposal, and the principle of shooting the first bird is the most obvious.

And they weren't Angel, who got carried away after being flattered.

……

"You are simply unreasonable." Pymes slapped the table and left the council angrily.

"It's really the demeanor of being a king." Angel continued to mock.

Hearing this, Cobra became more and more disgusted with Angel's words, but Cobra would not leave the venue angrily like Pimax, after all, there was still a part of the meeting that hadn't ended yet.

"Okay, let's move on to the next meeting." Bitam came out with a smile, trying to smooth things over.

……

Navy Headquarters.

"Is the king of Boyatu Kingdom?" Akainu looked at the information sent back, his face turned slightly livid.

"In this case, it is better to withdraw all the naval soldiers of the Boyatu Kingdom, and transfer all the naval bases on the surrounding routes to other routes."

"Yes, Marshal Sakakis." The clerk recorded all of Akainu's orders.

"You go down first!"

"Yes, Marshal Sakakis." After the clerk saluted, he left Akainu's office.

……

"Very good." When the clerk left, Akainu's face was completely pulled down.

Before, the action of entering the new world was blocked by the red-haired Shanks.

Originally, it was a blow to Akainu's radical action. Although this is not a bad thing, after all, after the world conscription, although the navy's power has expanded rapidly, it has exposed many problems, including the navy's military expenditure. The problem.

And this time at the meeting of the world's franchise countries, the proposal put forward was undoubtedly a knife stabbed in the back of the navy, and it was quite a fatal knife.

In this regard, the navy has no way to recover, but it still needs to make a corresponding gesture, even if it will cause a large number of civilian casualties.

"Look, the navy needs a stable income channel." Akainu took the phone bug on the desktop and called Tsuru.

In order to better control the navy, the world government has completely restricted the navy's finances.

And before completely turning against the world government, Akainu will not recklessly break the tacit understanding between the two.

……

"What?" Watt burst into tears when he heard Angel's actions at the World Franchise Conference.

It's different from Angel, who has fun and makes national policies wantonly.

Watt, who is old and mature, understands the consequences of this incident best.

As the country that proposes to reduce the navy's military expenditure, although the navy will not take the initiative to attack the Boyatu Kingdom, it will undoubtedly withdraw all the naval troops stationed in the Boyatu Kingdom, so that the pressure on the pirates facing the Boyatu Kingdom will be enormous. increase.

Moreover, after losing the asylum of the navy, the Boyatu Kingdom still needs to provide two-thirds of the previous annual military expenditure, which is completely an extremely loss-making business.

However, for this sake, Watt could only smash his teeth and swallow it in his stomach.
