Pirates: I Created the Murloc Empire Single-handedly
Chapter 14 Blackmailing King Liku
The next day.
Vegapunk came to his office. .
"Haha, I actually prepared a fake. What a careful guy!"
He came to the desk in front of the console, and his fingers inadvertently touched a blank drawing on the desk. It seemed that someone had written some words on it.
Vegapunk took out a pencil and scribbled on it. After reading what was written on the paper, he couldn't help but smile.
…………
Three days later, in the afternoon, a certain sea area in the new world.
A black rubber inflatable boat drifted on the endless blue sea.Lying on the boat was a burly fishman with light blue skin, a lifeless expression on his face.
Three days ago, Aaron immediately escaped from PH Island after obtaining the Phantom Beast Devil Fruit, and couldn't wait to return to Fish-Man Island.So he put on his diving suit, plunged into the deep sea, and dived to 3500 meters below the sea surface in one breath.
then……
There's no after that.
He couldn't get down.
The water pressure in the deep sea is extremely high. In previous lives, the water pressure at a depth of 3500 meters could not even support some nuclear submarines.
The reason why the fish people can live in the deep sea is because their bodies absorb seawater and the internal and external water pressure is balanced, so they are not affected by the huge water pressure.
Aaron was wearing a diving suit, and the air pressure in his chest was much less than the water pressure in the deep sea.After diving to a depth of 3500 meters, he could no longer hold on, so he surfaced.
It didn't matter that he couldn't return home. The most terrible thing was the strange and unpredictable bad weather in the new world.In the next few days, Aaron deeply understood how terrifying the sea in the new world is!
A 200-meter-high super tsunami...
Giant hailstones taller than mountains...
Tornadoes, maelstroms, storms, abnormal currents, not to mention those sea beasts that suddenly emerge from the sea, ready to eat people.
Danger after danger appeared again and again, which gradually depleted Aaron's energy and patience.
Just the day before yesterday, his rubber diving suit was torn. As a result, Aaron could no longer go fishing in the sea, and he suddenly lost his food source.
Finally, Aaron couldn't help it anymore.
"Gou Ri's system, get out of here... I won't do it! First he was put in jail, then he was a guinea pig, and now he can't even return home. This is a naked act of abuse of the master!"
"Forget it if you don't give the protagonist a halo, but are you going to play with me like this?"
Aaron regretted a little. Why did he give up the luxurious life of a billionaire and choose to accept this time travel challenge?
So what if you save the fishmen, what if you become the Pirate King?Does it have to be more fulfilling than a life surrounded by beautiful clothes and beautiful women?
"A sense of accomplishment... a damn sense of accomplishment. If it weren't for this ethereal thing, I wouldn't have chosen to travel through time..."
After the scolding, the depressed mood was relieved, and life still had to go on.
Aaron rubbed his eyes, turned over on the boat, held the boat with both hands, stretched his head into the sea, and took a swig of seawater.
Murlocs who have adapted to underwater life also need to drink water. As mammals, they rely on their powerful kidneys to excrete the salt in the seawater they drink into their bodies. This is also one of the innate skills of the murlocs.
"Huh? It smells like blood..."
Just after taking a few sips of sea water, Aaron's long nose smelled a faint smell of blood from the sea water.
Sharks have a very keen sense of smell and can smell blood from several kilometers away.As a sawtooth shark, Aaron also inherited the shark's keen sense of smell.
It smells like blood, and [-]% represents food!
Thinking of this, Aaron immediately became excited.I saw him lying on the rubber boat, stretching out his two slender arms as paddles to stir the water.
Half an hour later, an island appeared in Aaron's field of vision.
"Hmm, this island looks familiar!"
This is Dressrosa, the land of love and passion, a tropical island with a resort style.
Surrounded by mushroom-shaped rocks hundreds of meters high, the entire country stands like a giant bowl in the sea of the New World.The center of the giant bowl is a tall city wall that runs through the entire island. In the center of the city wall is a high ground, where Dressrosa's palace is located.
"What? It's actually a group of fishermen killing fish on the pier... I thought there was food."
"But, it's a blessing in disguise for me."
Aaron stood on the top of the mushroom-shaped rock on the coast, overlooking the entire island. The architectural style full of Western European style, as well as the bullfighting arena near the palace heights that resembled the ancient Roman amphitheater, gave people a strong exotic feel.
"Hahaha, what a picturesque country!"
Such a beautiful scenery made his gloomy mood for the past few days disappear.
"It's a pity that this country will fall into Doflamingo's hands in two years... Huh? Wait, can I make a fuss about this matter?"
As his eyes rolled, Aaron immediately had an interesting idea in his mind.
That night.
At the height of Dressrosa Palace, King Riku Dold III finished his busy day of government work and returned to his bedroom.Not long after he lay down, the huge window in the bedroom opened with a creak, and the cold air from outside blew in and made the drawn curtains bulge.
"who is it?!"
King Riku suddenly opened his eyes and sat up alertly.
"There's no need to shout so loudly, I'm not here to kill you, His Majesty King Riku!"
A tall figure jumped down from the window sill. With the moonlight coming in from the window, King Riku could see that the man had a long, jagged nose and a mouth full of sharp teeth, which was terrifying.
"Let me introduce myself. I am Aaron, a man destined to become the King of the Sea! I am here today to save this country, King Riku!"
"The man who wants to be Aquaman? Save the country?"
King Liku frowned.
"If you have anything to say, you might as well just say it!"
"How refreshing! Since His Majesty King Riku said so, I won't beat around the bush anymore!"
Aaron spread his hands and said: "I received news that a pirate named Donquixote Doflamingo is preparing to seize this country! And I, Aaron, happen to be a pirate too! So I came here , prepare to exchange this news for some rewards from His Majesty King Liku!"
"Don Quixote?!"
Upon hearing this surname, King Liku's heart trembled suddenly.
As the current king of Dressrosa, he naturally knows what the four words Don Quixote represent. That is the last name of the previous royal family that ruled Dressrosa 800 years ago!
"Where did your news come from? What do you want from me?"
Aaron grinned and said: "Does it matter where the information comes from? As the leader of a country, you should have some channels to obtain information! You might as well verify it first! Doflamingo has a bounty of more than 3 million. The big pirate is very famous in the North Sea!"
"As for what I want to get?" Aaron stretched out three fingers and said, "3 million Beli, I need a reward of 3 million Beli!"
"3 million Berry!"
King Riku was shocked by the opponent's lion's big mouth, and immediately bargained: "Dressrosa has always been a poor country, and 3 million beli is really beyond the limit of what I can bear..."
"As the king of a country, he doesn't know how to make money. No wonder Dressrosa has always been so poor. Let me give you two ways to make money! Your Majesty King Riku!"
"First, issuing national debt in the name of the king means borrowing money from all citizens!"
"But the borrowed money must be repaid, so I have a second plan, which is to issue lottery tickets in the name of the king!"
"A lottery ticket is priced at 500 berries. If you can sell 1 tickets, that's 500 million berries! You only need to use one-fifth of it, which is 100 million berries, as a bonus, and the remaining 400 million is Pure profit!”
"Issuing once a month, 1 times a year, that's 12 berries! If half of the citizens of Tokushima can participate, it will be a net profit of hundreds of millions of berries every year! A mere 4800 million berries, You can make it back in just a few years! And I don’t need you to take out 3 million beri in one go. You just need to pay me in installments within three months. I’ll pick up the first installment of 3 million beri tomorrow. what do you think?"
Aaron talked eloquently and gave his suggestions.
"Lottery, isn't that gambling? If half of the residents of Dressrosa are addicted to gambling, then what future does this country have?"
As the king of a country, King Liku naturally had some knowledge. He saw through the essence of the lottery at a glance and immediately refused again.
Aaron's face turned cold.
"I call you Your Majesty politely, but do you think I'm easy to talk to? You old guy, don't you think I'm joking with you? I only want 3 million Beli and you refuse in every possible way. How much do you know? What will Flamenco do to you?"
"Based on what I know about him, that guy will definitely ask for 100 billion beli from you! You will definitely not be able to come up with such a large sum of money yourself, and you will have to borrow it from all the citizens! I know you deeply If you are loved by the people, they will definitely lend you money! Then, you have been completely fooled by Doflamingo!"
"That guy is a person with the ability to control the Thread Fruit, and he has the ability to control other people's bodies! When the time comes, he only needs to move his fingers to control you, and those king's troops will kill the citizens who trust you! Old man, Children, pregnant women, and the people who trust you will be hacked to death one by one. No matter how you beg for mercy, it will not help..."
"When the anger of all the citizens is burning, you, King Riku, will become an old madman who everyone screams for beating! At that time, Doflamingo will appear with his men and kill you to pieces. If you stay, you can easily win the trust of all the people! As for what will happen to you and your family, think about it yourself!"
Aaron vividly described the scenes that would happen in the future, which made King Liku tremble all over, sweating, and chills running down his back.
"That's enough, stop talking. I believe you are the one! 3 million berries, right? I will give you the money, but I also hope you stay away from my family!"
King Liku was full of fear for Aaron who could appear in front of him mysteriously.
"Hehehe, congratulations on your wise decision! As for your family, not only will I not harm them before I get the money, but I will also protect them!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Aaron disappeared.
If it weren't for the two windows in the bedroom that were still open and the cold wind blowing from outside, King Liku would have almost thought that the previous scene was an illusion.
Raising his hand to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead, King Riku murmured.
"Aaron...a man destined to become the King of the Sea..."
Vegapunk came to his office. .
