The Steady Mage in the Pirate World

Kong Ming had a golden rope tied around his waist. He was lying on the ground, panting in a very imageless manner. Behind Kong Ming, the noisy Styx River was still flowing.

Xin Duoli, who had just returned from Sky Island, was dressed in ol' attire, holding a stack of folders and standing next to Kong Ming.

"Huh..."

After Kong Ming took a few long breaths, he struggled to half sit up, and then he turned his attention to Xin Duoli.

"What Zangao means is that someone is deliberately sabotaging our pirate treasure hunt show, right..."

"That's right, Master!" Sindori nodded.

"Did the Commercial Investigation Bureau find out who did it?" Kong Ming continued to ask.

That's right, the Commercial Investigation Bureau under a certain Erha has been established, and Xin Duoli also took office a year ago and became the director of the Commercial Investigation Bureau.

However, while becoming the director of the Commercial Investigation Bureau, Xin Duoli also served as Kong Ming's assistant.

In fact, now Kong Ming has given full authority to Sindori for the general affairs of the Azeroth Chamber of Commerce.

As a death knight who signed a soul contract with Kong Ming, Kong Ming felt that no matter how much he trusted Sindori, it would not be too much.

"We have found some clues so far," Sindori replied respectfully.

"Speak carefully!"

"Yes! Master!" Sindori opened the folder in her hand and reported seriously.

"According to the information obtained from the sailors captured by the Bluebeard Pirates, it can be determined that the current program about our pirate treasure hunt show is a trap, and the purpose is to entrap other pirates. News has spread in the first half of the park. ”

"Have you found who is spreading these rumors?" Kong Ming asked without blushing.

That's right, things like specifically trapping pirates are all rumors!

A law-abiding businessman trapping a pirate who commits all kinds of crimes? Isn't this a rumor?

Xinduoli had no objection to Kong Ming's words, "Currently, the Commercial Investigation Bureau has successfully caught two people spreading rumors in Whiskey Mountain."

"Whiskey Mountain?"

After experiencing other people's lives n times in a row, Kong Ming now feels that his head is simply a ball of paste.

"I seem to have heard of this name!"

"Yes!" Assistant Sindori, who had fully taken over Kong Ming's work at the Azeroth Chamber of Commerce, answered without hesitation.

"According to the confessions of the agents of the Baroque Working Society that you captured more than a year ago, Whiskey Hill is a very important stronghold of the Baroque Working Society."

"Oh oh oh..." Kong Ming patted his forehead with his hand,

"I remembered that Whiskey Mountain is the territory of the sand crocodile. But isn't the sand crocodile dedicated to finding information about Pluto, and even his own men were caught by me without showing their heads?"

That's right, after Kong Ming captured the people from the Baroque Working Group, he sent people to find Crocodile. One was to ask Crocodile to investigate, and the other was to ask Crocodile to pay for the ransom.

As a result, the person who went to raise an army to question the crime was directly beaten back by Crocodile.

"I don't know Mr. this, Mr. which person, and I have never heard of anything like the Baroque Working Society. Do you have any evidence to prove that those assassins were sent by me?"

Regarding Kong Ming's threat to kill the agents if they didn't pay, Crocodile was even more straightforward.

"I told you I don't know those people. You can kill them if you want. It has nothing to do with me!"

To be honest, Kong Ming had to give him a capital letter for the sand crocodile's method of breaking the wrist of a strong man!

Kong Ming saw a lot of shameless people, but there were really few such shameless people...

"Could it be that what happened this time was that Sand Crocodile was unhappy because I arrested him and wanted to cause some trouble for me?"

"After investigation, the mastermind behind the facts should not be Crocodile. He should just let the rumors flow."

Sindori said calmly, "We have opened the mouths of the two guys who spread rumors. They received the mission from a certain force in the underground world..."

"A certain force in the underground world?" Kong Ming's eyes narrowed, "Do you know who assigned the mission?"

"That force's channels are very confidential, so..." Xin Duoli answered with some embarrassment.

"My requirements are too high..." Kong Ming said calmly, "The Commercial Investigation Bureau has only been established for a year, and it is quite large now. As for those traditional forces, they will not be able to get involved for a while. Sand is normal too."

"I'm sorry, Master, I'm not capable enough."

"This has nothing to do with your ability, and even if you run away, a monk can't run away from the temple." Kong Ming pushed up his glasses, and a cold light shone. "Which dark force channel did this mission go through?"

"Jack!" Sindori replied without hesitation.

"It turns out it's him," Kong Ming shook his head and stood up. "Then let's find him, Sindori..."

"Here, Master!"

"Send someone to tell Jack, either he will tell me who is behind it, or he is the one behind it, let him choose one!"

"Understood, Master!"

"Also, the sand crocodile that just sat back and watched the rumors spread cannot be let go so easily..."

Kong Ming tapped his forehead with his hand.

"Inform Jesus Bu to go to Alabasta and ask the sand crocodile to give me an explanation. If he dares not to give me an explanation, let Jesus Bu directly give an explanation to the sand crocodile."

After hearing Kong Ming's words, Xin Duoli hesitated.

"Master, after all, Crocodile is also one of the Shichibukai. According to the regulations of the World Government, Jesus is not allowed to attack Crocodile, who is also a Shichibukai."

"We are businessmen, when did we become accomplices of pirates?" Kong Ming sneered, "Tell Jesus Bu not to worry about this, Sand Crocodile dares not to give me an explanation, then give him an explanation!"

"Yes, Master!"

Kong Ming moved his hands and feet and felt that his condition had begun to return to normal!

Very good. I persisted in the River Styx for half an hour today, and my mental power increased by less than 1%...

What a speed!

If you continue at this speed, I believe that you will truly become an epic mage soon.

Styx is such a wonderful place!

Of course, Styx is not without its shortcomings.

According to the conclusion of Kong Ming's field test, the mental power gained by Kong Ming's washing by the Styx River has more 'impurities' and is not as easy to use as the mental power increased by his own meditation.

But Kong Ming can still go to the Void Storm to blow the wind...

Take a bath in the River Styx, and then go to the void to blow the wind...

The former increases mental power, and the latter purifies mental power.

What a perfect match!

Rapidly increase strength without toxic side effects...

There are no downsides other than both procedures being extremely painful!

"Right..."

After seeing Sinduoli, Kong Ming remembered the task he assigned to Sinduoli again.

"What's going on over at Kongdao now..."

"The situation is not very good," Sindori answered truthfully. "The so-called 'god' Gan Fule on Apayado's side is okay, but the group of Shandia tribe guys in Yunyin Village are not. Very easy to talk to."

Kong Ming pushed his glasses gently. "We can just set up a location in their village and buy those special shells, right?"

"They are very stubborn..." Sindori looked indifferent, "In my personal opinion, it is a good idea to kill all the Shandia people."

"Violence is indeed a very convenient method..."

Kong Ming thought about it seriously, "But there is no need to go to extremes for such a small matter. Let's leave this matter to my students, even if it is their recent study and practice."

"Yes, Master, I will notify them shortly."

"There's no need to go to Saab..."

Kong Ming tapped his temples a few times with his fingers, "That kid has been busy in school recently with the apprenticeship of the mage. Don't inform him about this matter. Leave it to Kuina, little Usopp, little Luffy and the others. Lead the team!"

"Yes! Master!"
