Pirates: I am Sukuna, killing people indiscriminately

"Since we can't run away, why don't we just open the castle gate to welcome the killer? No matter what he wants, as long as we have it, we will give it to him. We are so obedient, no matter how cruel he is, he will not kill us."

"Hehe..., after the killers leave satisfied, no matter how much you lose, King Wapol, we can use the excuse that the kingdom was looted by the killers to increase taxes on the residents of the Drum Kingdom. And maybe the killers don't ask for much. Not only will you not lose money, you can also squeeze a lot of money out of those civilians," Cro-Marimon said with a sly grin.

"You still have a way. You are worthy of being my appointed affairs officer. Humph, no matter how much the killers plunder, I will squeeze more out of those civilians. Moo, haha..." Wapol laughed.

Cro-Malimon quickly complimented him: "King Wapol is right. We should exploit them severely. This will let the residents of the Drum Kingdom know that no matter what happens, you are the king of the Drum Kingdom."

On the icy road leading to the Drum Kingdom Castle, two strong bulls were carrying Rody and his party, moving towards the kingdom castle at a high speed.

"Dr. Ms. Kuleha, why don't you drive the ox cart to point out the direction? Is it really okay to let those two oxen carry us forward by themselves?" Nami asked in surprise in the carriage.

"Hey, hey, hey... don't worry. Those two bulls and this ox cart all belong to Dalton. When Dalton was the captain of the Kingdom Guard, he often drove this ox cart back and forth between the Kingdom Castle and the Drum Kingdom. He is very familiar with the road to the Kingdom Castle, so even if no one is driving the two bulls, as long as they know that they are going to the Kingdom Castle, the bulls will pull people there on their own."

"I remember now, Dalton. I met him when I was young and accompanied my father to the World Conference. I remember that Mr. Dalton seemed to be the captain of the King's Guard of the Drum Kingdom."

"But, you said it was in the past? Does that mean Mr. Dalton is no longer the king's guard?" Vivi asked doubtfully.

Hearing this, Dr. Kuleha was silent for a while, then sighed and slowly said, "A few years ago, Wapol enacted an inhumane law to hunt down doctors, which caused the once great medical power to gradually decline, and even fell to the point where no one could treat the sick people."

"Dalton also rebelled against Wapol's brutal rule, but his rebellion failed and he was imprisoned by Wapol. Until the Blackbeard Pirates attacked the Drum Kingdom some time ago, Wapol, as the king of the Drum Kingdom, chose to flee to the sea with his trusted subordinates and become a pirate."

"It was precisely because Wapol and his men escaped that the people of Magnetic Drum Island had the opportunity to rescue Dalton from prison. However, Wapol had only been a pirate for less than a month after escaping from Magnetic Drum Island, and he actually returned to Magnetic Drum Island, delusionally wanting to continue to be the king of the Magnetic Drum Kingdom."

"Damn it, how can a guy like this become the king? A king should be someone who can bring peace and hope to the people." Listening to Dr. Kuleha's narration, Vivi felt extremely angry.

In Vivi's opinion, the king is the person who brings hope, happiness, and peace to the country and the people, and is the person who carries all the good wishes of the people and the common people and moves forward.

"Oh, you have such faith and awareness, and you have even participated in the World Conference. It seems that your identity, little girl, is not simple."

Upon hearing this, Vivi, who was extremely angry just now, suddenly fell silent and said with a depressed look: "To be honest, Ms. Kuleha, I am actually the princess of Alabasta, but our country is still in civil strife."

"Oh, since your father can raise a princess with such faith and awareness, I guess he is not a cruel king. Is there any external factor?" Dr. Kuleha asked in surprise.

"Of course, my father is definitely a good king who loves his people like his own children. The civil strife in Alabasta is manipulated by a mastermind. After a long investigation, we found that the mastermind behind the civil strife in Alabasta is Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea," Vivi said solemnly.

"The Shichibukai are not easy to deal with."

"But as the princess of Alabasta, why would you stay with a wanted criminal like Rody?" Dr. Kuleha asked puzzledly.

"This..." Vivi looked at Nami with hesitation.

"Hehehehe...if it's inconvenient to tell you, you don't have to answer." Dr. Kuleha waved her hand and said indifferently.

"Actually, it's okay for me to tell you, Ms. Dr. Kureha. Vivi asked Rody for help in dealing with Crocodile, the mastermind behind the civil unrest in Alabasta, in the name of the Princess of Alabasta. But after the incident, Alabasta must pay us 15 billion Beli as a reward," Nami explained.

"So that's how it is... Alabasta is truly a happy country, with such a king and princess... Even if there is temporary chaos, the dawn of happiness will eventually come," Dr. Kuleha exclaimed.

"Okay, the small talk is over, the kingdom castle is ahead," Rody said while standing on the top of the carriage outside the ox cart.

When everyone was riding on the ox cart, Rody jumped directly onto the roof of the carriage and stood on the roof all the way, watching the snow scenery of Drum Island. Naturally, Rody also heard the conversation in the carriage.

But for Rody, the king that Vivi mentioned was nothing more than a puppet bound by the emotional shackles of the people and the masses.

A true king should be the only one who is above everyone else. No matter whether he is kind or cruel, he should rely on his absolute power and right to exercise his absolute will and make everything in the world run according to his will. However, Rody was not interested in talking about this with Vivi.

The ox cart slowly stopped in front of the castle gate. Rody jumped down from the roof and looked at the castle gate. There were two neat rows of guards standing on both sides of the gate. The fat Wapol led his two subordinates on the left and right. They were the affairs officer Cromalimon with a big afro, and the staff officer Jace with thick wavy lips and long arms. The three of them stood at the gate of the castle with a fawning look on their faces, smiling disgustingly at Rody.

Nami and the others also got off the carriage and were stunned to see such a scene. Then they gathered around Rody and looked at Wapol and his gang with disgust.

But when Cromalimon, the administrative officer in Wapol's group, saw that Rody and his men were all looking at him, he immediately became alert and waved to the guards standing on both sides of the castle gate. The guards immediately straightened their chests and shouted, "Welcome the great killer Rody to your loyal Drum Kingdom."
