Chapter 257 Pirates seeking the country

Even Ian couldn't help but shudder at the thought of the possible consequences.

Fortunately, fortunately, I didn't think of changing the route at the last moment, and landed on the island as planned.

"Tell me carefully!" Ian also sat down and said: "What is going on on this island? Since you have a mission and are waiting for me on this island, how can you get involved in this island?" Go into the battle? Also, where are Hutao and Yaldi? Didn't they follow you, or did they say they were separated from you? "

Konanayi originally wanted to narrate, but at this moment, Zeke and the others found this room, and Konanayi could only shut up temporarily.

"Captain, there are no other survivors in the village!" Zeke reported to Ian, and then glanced at Konanayi curiously.

Ian also knew what they were thinking, so he introduced: "This is Konanayi, who is my companion. It was with their help that I was able to learn about the navy's movements in the Holy Land Mariejoia."

When Zeke heard this, he immediately stood in awe of Konana. In fact, when they escaped with Ian, Zeke and the others discovered that Ian was communicating with someone through the phone bug. At that time, they guessed that Ian might have a companion. Yes, I didn't expect to meet them here. After all, Konanayi can be regarded as their benefactor.

Through the conversation, Konanayi also knew that this was Ian's crew, so he nodded towards them as a greeting.

Everyone sat down around Konanayi and listened to her story. In fact, not to mention Ian, everyone was confused about the situation on the island.

"Hu Tao, Yardi and I landed on this island a month ago!" Konanayi said: "Calculating, it should be half a month after the Salamis incident. After this island, we originally lived in the city waiting for you, but then something happened, we rescued a man who was being chased by pirates, and under his guidance, we came to this village."

"Rescue people?" Ian asked doubtfully, "Is there any connection with today's incident?"

"Listen to me!" Konanayi said: "Rescuing people is actually nothing, but we found out later that this man turned out to be a miner who escaped from the mine."

As Konanayi told it, Ian and the others gradually understood what was going on.

It turns out that this island is a well-known country of gemstones in the New World. It produces some rubies and emeralds. Although the output is not large, it makes the people on this island live a very prosperous life.

The population on the island is not large. Because of the production of gems, most of them are miners. This small country was originally one of the countries joining the World Government. However, because it is in the middle of the New World, there is no navy stationed here.

However, what is unexpected is that about eight years ago, a big pirate suddenly came to this island. With the help of his pirate group, he launched a sneak attack and entered the palace, killing the king of this country. Got rid of it!

Needless to say, what happened next was that the big pirate took over the country and took the position of king.

Originally, this kind of thing was absolutely not allowed by the World Government. At that time, the World Government considered sending the navy to capture this pirate, but what they didn't expect was that the Pirate King actually went to Mary Jo Ya, after returning, he became the king of this country. Although the World Government did not express its position, it did not send any more navy, which was equivalent to acquiescence.

This reversal is really confusing to the citizens of this island. Although they know that the pirate king may have reached some agreement with the World Government, they are unable to do anything because they do not know the details.

After all, the country established on this island has a short history. Unlike a thousand-year-old country like Alabasta, the royal family has been deeply ingrained in the minds of the people. But for ordinary people, they actually don’t care that much about who is the king. If you have force in your hands and cannot resist, then it is okay to obey him, as long as it does not disrupt people's lives.

However, who knew that soon after the pirate king came to power, he announced that all the mineral veins on the island would be nationalized, and all miners on the island must serve the country.

He sent out men to capture adult men on the island and use them as miners, and then assigned them to mines to dig for ore.

Having lost their personal freedom, the people who were treated as miners on the island had to work a lot longer every day. Not to mention the heavy manual labor, the remuneration they received in the end was pitifully less than before. And even if the work was completed, These miners were not allowed to go home, but were gathered together and under unified supervision.

This is actually no different from being a slave...

As time passed, the people gave up and wanted to resist. As a result, the pirate king actually bribed many pirate groups to work for him and used pirates to suppress these miners.

& nb

sp;This situation lasted for eight full years. All those who were captured for mining were tortured until they became inhuman. During this period, some miners also escaped to the sea and wanted to seek help from the navy. However, Some of them were caught up and intercepted by the pirates. Occasionally, some did escape. Even if they approached the navy, they would find excuses to shirk them and then ignore them.

After the people on the island discovered this situation, they finally despaired. They knew that the navy could no longer count on them and could only rely on themselves. So in secret, the miners began to secretly unite and planned to launch an uprising and overthrow the navy. Thief King.

Konanayi and the others didn't understand the situation, so they happened to choose such a time to land on the island, and the man they rescued turned out to be one of the leaders who organized the miners to revolt!

And the reason why he was hunted down by the pirates was because there was a traitor within the organization, and he was exposed!

He and dozens of miners realized that something was wrong, so they killed the guards and ran out. However, as they were passing through the city, they were overtaken by pirates hired by the king. A fierce battle started in the city, and the rest of the people were killed. He died, and he was also seriously injured. He was discovered by Konanayi and the others, and they rescued him. Konanayi escorted him back to the village of this secret stronghold, leaving Hutao and Yardi to continue waiting in the city. Ian.

As a revolutionary soldier, Konanayi sympathized with the miners' suffering, so he was willing to help them if he could.

However, the time she was there was really unlucky. The man she rescued was in a coma for three days. It was during these three days that the pirate king was also ready and began to deal with him. These miners who wanted to resist him launched a bloody crackdown.

The time happened to be last night!

Due to the betrayal of the informer, all the hiding places of the rebellious miners were exposed. The Pirate King hired a large number of different pirate groups as his thugs and began to attack these hiding places. These miners were originally just ordinary people with weapons in their hands. It was so pitiful that it could not be the opponent of the extremely vicious pirates who had been fighting on the sea for a long time. Therefore, after a little resistance, the miners' front collapsed.

When I came here, if the pirate king had some conscience, he would just arrest him again. However, since the pirate king had a wronged country, he had always been vigilant. If there was such an uprising, he would Very angry, he ordered all the miners who participated in the uprising to be killed.

As a result, the first tragedy in the island's history occurred. The frantic pirates faithfully carried out their employer's orders and massacred the miners on the island.

Thousands of miners were targeted for massacre indiscriminately. Although the miners tried their best to resist, they still couldn't defeat the pirates who were fully equipped with weapons and cannons. In the end, they had to fight and retreat. They wanted to retreat to Escape by sea.

As a result, when they first went to sea, they met the pirates who were following them, so the two sides started another fierce battle at sea.

This time it was even worse. Naval battles were a common occurrence for pirates. Although the miners gritted their teeth and killed many pirates because they had no way out, they were still wiped out in the end...

This is what happened. The village where Konanayi was located was one of the miners' secret hiding places. As a result, it also attracted the pursuit of pirates. Although Konanayi also helped the miners resist these The pirates were helpless and outnumbered. In the end, they were caught off guard and were chopped down to the ground by a pirate from behind...

If Ian had come an hour or two later, Konanayi might have died from excessive blood loss.

Listening to her story, Ian and the others remained silent.

It wasn't until the end that Ian frowned and asked, "Strange, with just some gems, can this pirate king bribe the World Government and let them indulge here?"

"Yes, if the gems produced on this island are really of such great benefit, wouldn't they arouse the interest of the Four Emperors?" Zeke also asked.

When Konanai was narrating just now, Ian interrupted and asked a few questions. He learned that the pirate king here was actually a big pirate with a bounty of 340 million, but he seemed to have nothing to do with the Yonko Pirates. Implicated, this island is not the jurisdiction of any four emperors.

This is what Ian finds most strange. Normally, a place that can produce gems will arouse the covetousness of the four emperors, right? No pirate has trouble with money.

"I've asked the miners here!" Konanayi shook his head and said, "Actually, there are very few gemstone veins on this island. After so many years of mining, they have almost been exhausted."

"Then why are these miners imprisoned and allowed to mine?" Ian asked puzzledly.

"Because the pirate king doesn't seem to want a gem mine!" Konanayi groped around on his body for a while, took out a small white crystal, and said, "What he wants seems to be this thing!"
