One Piece: General Xuanming, Defeat the New World

Chapter 100: Signing an Agreement

"So what you mean is that whether it was the cooperation between the Flower Kingdom and the pirates ten years ago, or the continuous destruction of the Navy's transportation lines in the North Sea by the Flower Kingdom in recent years."

"And they openly plundered other countries and destroyed regional peace and stability. All of this was done by Qingjiao on his own initiative. It has nothing to do with you?"

At this time in the king's palace, Carsen sat down on the king's golden throne without any courtesy, and Anna also sat down on Carsen's right.

The king stood aside trembling with fear and began to explain.

Below, the king's officials at all levels and the ruling class of the Flower Kingdom were like ostriches, not daring to say a word.

They could only hope that Qingjiao would arrive in time, or that the rear admiral from the navy would let them go after dealing with the king.

I've only lived a life of luxury for half of my life, and I haven't enjoyed it enough.

Halfway through listening, Carsent interrupted the king impatiently.

Just now the king said a lot of nonsense.

To sum it up in one sentence: these things were all done by Qingjiao and have nothing to do with me.

If you're looking for someone, go find Qingjiao, don't come to me.

His Majesty the King had also read the newspaper some time ago. The legendary Rear Admiral from the Navy - Carson.

He has a terrifying record of being able to fight with the generals of the Warring States period for seven days and seven nights without being defeated.

With such strength, it would be useless even if Qingjiao arrived. Besides, this is the North Sea. The Four Seas region is the navy's base, and no force dares to come to help the Flower Kingdom.

If we continue to delay, we will have to wait for continuous reinforcements from the navy.

After some calculations in his mind, His Majesty the King no longer holds out hope for a comeback. The King is now only doing one thing -

Throw the pot, throw the whole pot onto the green pepper.

You see, although I am the king, Green Pepper is the strongest and I can't beat him, so I can't control his affairs. This makes sense, right?

"Then tell me, is this really the case?"

Carsen was left speechless by the king, and then looked up at the officials below. The invisible domineering and pressure made Carsen more solemn.

The officials below secretly groaned. They had been trying their best to reduce their presence, hoping that the major general above would ignore their existence.

But now that I've been called out, I can no longer pretend not to hear.

"Reporting to the Admiral, we don't know these things either. Maybe it is indeed as Your Majesty said."

"Yes, yes, that's it."

……

The answers of the people below were smarter than the king's. They didn't want to offend the king, nor could they offend Qingjiao. They couldn't afford to offend either of them.

So I just used the forgetfulness technique. I don’t know either. The king is right!

Carsent looked at these guys and felt somewhat helpless. He knew what these people were planning just by thinking about it.

Fortunately, Anna was not brought this time, otherwise the little girl would be traumatized again.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense."

Carsen waved his hand, interrupting the endless and meaningless words.

"Even if it has nothing to do with you, you still have to compensate for what your subordinates and your soldiers did."

"It should, it should."

Originally, Carson had no intention of moving this guy from his position as king. Anyway, the core of power in the country was always with Qingjiao, and whoever became king was just a title and had no value at all.

But since this guy is so afraid of death, we can use this as an opportunity to ask for more compensation.

"Very good, since you agreed, then take a look at this treaty and sign it if there is no problem."

"As long as you cooperate, I won't hurt you, and the position of king will still be yours."

Carson gave a good reward after a good beating.

The purpose of all actions is to seek more benefits for the Navy and the World Government.

"Okay, okay, I will cooperate."

After hearing Carsen's assurance, the king suddenly became energetic and hurriedly took the treaty from Carsen's hand.

Seeing this, the king turned bitter again.

"Your Excellency Major General, can we pay less compensation? This... this is really a bit too much."

The king looked at the treaty in his hand, unsure whether to sign it or not.

Almost every aspect of the treaty hits the Flower Kingdom's vital points.

"Pay war compensation of 1.5 billion Baileys, and assist the North Sea Navy in rebuilding its operational network, ensuring that the Navy's shipping routes will not be disrupted for any reason in the future."

"The Navy is allowed to establish a naval base in the outer waters of the Flower Kingdom, commanded by a colonel and three lieutenant colonels."

"The Navy has the right to recruit and promote troops in the Flower Country, and the Flower Country shall not block or impose restrictions without reason."

"The Flower Kingdom needs to provide the World Government with 100,000 tons of iron ore and various rare metals every year."

"The World Government will collect 30% tax on the weapons trade imported and exported from the Flower Kingdom."

"The succession of the King of the Flower Kingdom requires the consent of the World Government!"

……

It is obvious that this order was jointly drafted by the World Government and the Navy.

The Flower Kingdom was simply treated as a roasted suckling pig, and the two big men, holding knives and forks, cut it up at will.

Every country that responded to the call of the Rocks Pirates ten years ago will be liquidated.

The Kingdom of Flowers just had bad luck and was caught, that's all.

This combination of attacks has put the Flower Kingdom under a tight control in terms of politics, economy and culture.

Although the Flower Kingdom will not be destroyed, it will at least be firmly controlled by the World Government and the Navy for the next few decades.

"There is only one treaty. Just tell me whether you will sign it or not. Don't waste time!"

Carson exerted pressure secretly.

In political consultation, the party with the advantage will naturally show no mercy. Otherwise, everything must be negotiated properly. Then what is the point of having this advantage?

"me……"

The king, who was already in his thirties, was about to cry. He looked at the officials below with a sad face, but none of the officials looked up and completely ignored their king.

What a joke, if you sign it, you will be the one who gets criticized, but if we stand out and oppose it now, we will be the ones who die.

These old foxes know exactly what is important.

"I, I'll sign!"

After looking around, the isolated and helpless king finally compromised, picked up the pen tremblingly, and signed his name on the contract.

"That's great. After a while, the World Government will send someone to carry out the order. Remember to be good, or else those people in the government won't be as easy to talk to as I am."

Carsente smiled, then turned around and left the palace with the signed treaty.

Behind them, the king and all the civil and military officials collapsed to the ground, feeling relieved.

(Finally reached the 100th chapter, spread the flowers)

(Emm, but the data is still not very good. I don’t dare to start the experiment of multiple book titles. If I can’t get it up before 500,000 words, there will be no hope.)
