Pirates: The biggest scum in naval history
Chapter 191 The Island of Coins
New world.
Island of Coins.
This island was originally a deserted island, but due to its unique geographical location, it was located at the convergence point of many trade routes in the New World waters. Due to the needs of trade and supplies, a prosperous business gradually developed.
Because of this, this island later became a territory that many forces in the underground world and pirate groups competed for. After all, the more prosperous the place is, the more money, intelligence and resources flow. In other words, it is a huge island. Interests.
After more than ten years of strife, contention, and war, this island experienced countless wars and was captured by the dark emperor of the underground world - Lou Field. It developed rapidly under the latter's vigorous promotion and is now It has become a well-known financial port in the New World waters.
Countless banks, large and small, have branches here. Various news organizations, chambers of commerce, casinos, and commercial facilities are everywhere, and there are many high-rise buildings.
In terms of topography, due to the continuous reclamation and expansion of Lou Field, the "King of Loan Sharks", the aerial view shows a vague appearance of huge coins. Coupled with the huge amount of financial business circulating here every day, the island's original The name has been gradually forgotten by people.
Everyone habitually calls this island "Coin Island".
…
On the deck of the warship, Darren looked through the intelligence documents handed over by the Warring States Period, briefly understanding the information about the golden island on the distant sea.
"So, overall, this is a rich island?"
Darren summed it up succinctly.
Warring States nodded and said solemnly:
"'The King of Loan Sharks' Lou Fielder... This guy controls more than 50% of the loan sharking business in the underground world. The banks and banks he controls are called 'money lockers'. There is even a saying in the New World - 'Feldlar' The shit that comes out is gold'."
"Although it is a bit exaggerated, it is enough to illustrate this guy's resources and strength."
Darren rolled his eyes and said with a half-smile:
"I'm very curious, how on earth does this extremely rich guy survive in the new world?"
Warring States shook his head and sighed:
"This guy serves more than just chambers of commerce, fleets, and pirates... It is said that many of the World Government's participating countries have cooperative relationships with him. After all, any force may encounter an emergency situation like capital turnover. So no matter how chaotic the new world is, it has nothing to do with this Island of Coins."
“This island, like a peaceful place in the storm, has remained standing.”
"So there are also a lot of lawless people and dark areas gathered here."
Darren was stunned.
If there is such a relationship, it would be understandable.
Otherwise, if such a big and fertile cake is placed in the New World, it will be difficult for those greedy guys to resist taking a bite.
As for the cooperation between the countries joining the world government... Although he doesn't know the inside story, Darren can probably guess that it is probably related to Heavenly Gold.
The world government collects huge amounts of heavenly gold from members of the participating countries every year.
But not every member of the franchise country can pay on time. After all, climate, business, war and other reasons will lead to instability of domestic tax revenue.
But the world government's attitude towards heavenly gold cannot be postponed.
As a result, many members of the member countries who are in financial distress can only use their fiscal revenue as collateral to borrow loan sharks from the 'Island of Money' to pay enough heavenly gold.
If you operate in this way, although you will have to pay high additional interest, it will at least give members of the participating countries room to survive.
Just listen to the tone of the Warring States Period...
Darren glanced at Seng Guo cryptically.
Could it be that the Navy Headquarters also borrowed loan sharks from Lou Field as a supplement to military expenses?
"What's that look in your kid's eyes..."
Sengoku rolled his eyes angrily.
Naturally, he noticed Darren's strange gaze and laughed and cursed:
"Although the Navy is short of military spending, it is not going to the point of borrowing loan sharks!"
Porusalino, who was next to him, said abruptly:
"After all, we can't afford such high interest rates..."
Darren:…
Warring States Period:…
"Ahem...Boy Darren, are you sure the source of this information is trustworthy?"
Warring States coughed twice and changed the subject without blushing or heartbeat.
"General Warring States, the information should be fine..."
Darren nodded,
"Although it is only a small-scale auction, many prominent forces in the New World have received invitations."
Speaking of this, his tone was slightly cold.
"But this also means that our operation this time is very likely to encounter many unexpected enemies."
Warring States's face also darkened, and he was obviously aware of this problem.
Since it is an auction in the underground world, and it is a powerful and precious Devil Fruit like the Momo Fruit, it will naturally attract countless forces to compete for it.
After all, the name of "World Destroyer" Bundy Waldo is placed here. It can be said without hesitation that no matter which force obtains the Momo Fruit, it will add an extremely powerful fighting force!
Large pirate groups, chambers of commerce, powerful countries... It is conceivable that this auction will never be so "peaceful".
All of this puts the navy at an extreme disadvantage.
Think about that image for a moment:
In the bustling auction, many powerful pirates and dark forces were bidding enthusiastically, and then a group of navy suddenly appeared...
By then, their navy will definitely become the target of public criticism!
Once they take action, the pirates and dark forces will definitely target the navy as soon as possible!
Whether the Momo Fruit can be obtained is one thing, but being caught by the navy is another matter.
After a period of silence, Warring States slowly exhaled and said in a deep voice:
"No matter what, Darren boy, our primary target this time is Golden Lion Shiji."
"Momo Fruit must not fall into his hands!"
Darren raised his eyebrows:
"So what you mean is..."
Warring States considered it and said:
"If possible, try to obtain the Momo Fruit in a peaceful way. After all, there is a high chance that there will be members from World Government member countries at the auction..."
"So we bid as normal according to the auction process?" Darren was a little surprised, "Then how to arrange the funds..."
Warring States glanced at him:
"The funds of this headquarters are tight, so this task will be left to you."
His expression was calm and composed.
Darren:…
"Sengoku General, I don't think the situation will remain controllable."
Darren thought for a while and then said:
"Since the Golden Lion's goal is the Momo Fruit, it is naturally impossible to obtain it in a peaceful way due to his character... He is a real pirate, so he will naturally act in a pirate manner."
Warring States pinched his temples with a headache.
He also took this factor into consideration.
"Do you have any good suggestions?"
Darren did not answer immediately.
He looked through the intelligence documents in his hand, a sneer gradually appeared on his lips, and suddenly asked a seemingly unrelated question:
"I heard that in this Island of Coins, almost the entire city is made of various coins?"
"Yes, after all, that guy Lou Field is very wealthy...wait, what do you want to do!?"
Warring States replied subconsciously, but he immediately noticed something strange and his expression changed slightly.
Darren said with a half-smile:
"Didn't you say that many pirates and dark forces will participate in the auction?"
"This time we... let's just catch them all."
