From Pirates to Sweeping the Worlds

This time, they stopped at one spot and lifted the cover on the ground.

After a moment, a big hole appeared in front of them.

Hydra jumped down first, followed closely by the other two insect men.

"Got it!" Suddenly a surprised voice sounded.

Hydra looked over and the corners of his mouth suddenly curled up.

He said happily: "Haha~, great! I didn't expect it to be successful."

As he spoke, Hydra took a strange-looking fruit.

Judging from its appearance, this is obviously the secret treasure of the sea - the Devil Fruit.

Hydra looked at it for a while, then ordered, "Let's go!"

So he and the two insect men climbed onto the back of the flying dragon and disappeared in the snow and wind in the blink of an eye.

Returning to the headquarters of the Hydra Group, Hydra couldn't wait to report the good news.

Hearing this, Xia Jieren was overjoyed and said, "Haha~, I didn't expect this method to work! I'm so lucky."

At the beginning, Xia Jieren coveted the fruits of the surgery.

But unfortunately, things developed so quickly that the Hydra group never had a chance to take action.

In desperation, they could only quietly place a large number of fruits around Minin Island, hoping that after the death of the person with the ability, the devil fruit would be reborn on these fruits.

This is very luck-consuming.

But judging from the results, Xia Jieren was obviously successful.

No need to guess, Xia Jieren also knew that the devil fruit with sky blue arabesque pattern in the photo was that devil fruit.

There was only one Devil Fruit user who died on Minien Island, and that was Don Quixote Rocinante.

Then the name of this devil fruit is obvious.

Parahuman-type Quiet Fruit!

"My Lord, I will immediately let the airship worm transport the Serenity Fruit to you." Hydra said.

Xia Jieren smiled and nodded.

Suddenly, he seemed to have thought of something and asked, "Oh, right! Have you found Luo?"

"No!" Hydra shook his head and explained, "When we went there, he had disappeared."

"Really?" Xia Jieren felt a little regretful.

He still coveted the Operation Fruit. Although the Operation Fruit was eaten by Luo, Xia Jieren didn't mind taking Luo directly under his command.

Luo has a high talent for medicine, which should be of great help to the forces under Xia Jieren's command.

And the means to regain Law's favor is actually not difficult. All we need to do is let him see the hope of destroying or defeating Doflamingo.

Of course, if he couldn't see this hope, even if Xia Jieren and others saved him, he would not join Xia Jieren's army.

Somehow, everyone in the D clan is a bit "arrogant".

"Pay close attention to his information and report to me immediately if you find anything." Xia Jieren gave another instruction and then hung up the phone.

Xia Jieren was very happy after obtaining another devil fruit.

But before Xia Jieren could be happy for long, bad news came.

"My Lord, members of CP5 have appeared one after another in the Kingdom of Jade, the Kingdom of Bakt, and the Kingdom of Lidi." Kerrigan reported.

Xia Jieren frowned and asked, "What does CP5 want to do?"

Kerrigan shook her head and said, "It's not clear yet. We are investigating it intensively."

"At present, a large number of reconnaissance spores have been released in the three countries of Jade Kingdom, Bakt Kingdom and Lidi Kingdom. I believe we will know soon."

Xia Jieren nodded slightly, and he suddenly felt a storm was about to come.

I wouldn't say I was scared, it's just that the feeling was a bit uncomfortable.

Sure enough, three days later, Xia Jieren's feeling came true.

"You mean that CP5 is colluding with the nobles of the Jade Kingdom, the Bakt Kingdom and the Lidi Kingdom to suppress the Netherlands Kingdom." Xia Jieren asked in astonishment.

Kerrigan nodded affirmatively: "That's right!"

Afterwards, she released the intelligence she bought from the World Government to corroborate each other.

Xia Jieren believed it on the spot.

He was confused and asked, "Uh~, why does the World Government suddenly want to suppress our Netherlands Kingdom?"

Kerrigan explained helplessly: "There are many reasons."

"We got news from bribed World Government officials that the White Tiger Chamber of Commerce of our Netherlands Kingdom has already controlled 70% of the trade in the West Sea."

"The World Government does not allow the White Tiger Chamber of Commerce to continue to expand, so they are suppressing us."

"However, judging from the conversations between CP5 and royal nobles from various countries."

"In addition, the Dutch daily newspapers, the Dutch army, and other countries' lack of understanding of the internal situation of the Kingdom of the Netherlands are all contributing factors."

Xia Jieren scratched his head and said puzzledly: "I can understand the last two reasons, but how did the Dutch Daily provoke them?"

As soon as he finished speaking, several articles suddenly appeared in front of Xia Jieren.

Xia Jieren took a quick look and soon understood why.

These articles published by the Dutch daily are all articles such as "encouraging the people to take charge of their own affairs."

It’s no wonder that these princes and nobles are so angry.

Once these inflammatory articles become known to the people of their country, a rebellion would be the least of their worries and they would most likely be overthrown.

After knowing the reason, Xia Jieren muttered: "These princes and nobles are so petty and have no tolerance for others."

"CP5 is the same. Just for such a small matter, they want to suppress the Kingdom of the Netherlands."

"Isn't it just some inflammatory articles? What's wrong with that?"

"The Dutch army has only grown by another 200,000 men? What's the matter?"

"And isn't it just killing some of their spies? What's wrong?"

Xia Jieren just thought they were making a big deal out of nothing.

"My Lord, what should we do?" Kerrigan asked Xia Jieren about his decision.

Xia Jieren said lightly: "What else can we do? If they provoke us, we can just fight back."

"Yes!" Kerrigan agreed directly.

Xia Jieren now has a lot of confidence and is not afraid of what the World Government is doing in secret.

And he believes that the world government is unlikely to take action personally.

In the final analysis, the world government is strong but also "weak".

As long as they want to maintain the fragile world peace, they are unlikely to directly target the Kingdom of the Netherlands.

Now, the only thing Xia Jieren is worried about is that the World Government may have other tricks up its sleeve.

After thinking for a moment, Xia Jieren gave up decisively.

"Planning before taking action is not my style at all," Xia Jieren thought.

......

As time went by, the atmosphere in several countries near the Upside-down Mountain in the West Sea gradually became strange.

The number of ships entering and leaving the Jade Kingdom, the Bakt Kingdom, and the Lidi Kingdom suddenly increased.

"The World Government will actually provide them with so much help." Xia Jieren said in surprise when he heard the news.

In Xia Jieren's impression, the world government should be a stingy type that is unwilling to spend a penny, and forced buying and selling is what it should do.

Kerrigan corrected him, "Master, you are biased. You may have been misled by the performance of those useless Celestial Dragons."
