Chapter 723 Extra: Three Little Leeks, your killer is back!
While Xia Qi was carefully calculating how much a Celestial Dragon corpse was worth, Adrian took a brand new stack of "World Economic News" on the bar, shook it, flattened it, and started reading.
Although he had just seen the news about the Revolutionary Army taking the blame in the World Economic News, he only noticed the headlines and didn't see much of the specific content.
Rayleigh, Fisher Tiger, and the three Hancock sisters looked at the Draco corpses on the ground, as well as the other Draco corpses that most likely existed but had not been taken out, and their minds were full of questions. Asked, but seeing the white ghost focus on the newspaper, several people still refrained from asking questions.
Never mind how White Ghost dared to kill the Celestial Dragons, nor how many Celestial Dragons he had killed.
It’s the Celestial Dragons anyway!
No matter how many people die, just die!
Even the mature and prudent Pluto maintains this attitude.
"...After in-depth investigation by our reporter, it was learned that at XX on XX day, the leader of the Revolutionary Army and the most vicious criminal in the world, Dorag, led the top cadres of the Revolutionary Army..."
Adrian read the headlines on the front page of the "World Economic News" at a glance, and then roughly flipped through the information in the following newspapers, roughly confirming one thing.
Morgans, who calls himself the "word DJ" and is the majestic king of the dark world, has almost no idea about what happened in Mariejoia before!
All these things mentioned in the "World Economic News" are FAKENEWS!
If the big news bird just dumped Fisher Tiger's blame on Dorag and other revolutionary troops, Adrian would not be unable to understand.
After all, compared to the latter, the identity of the fish-man explorer is too insignificant.
Simply put, it’s not enough to attract readers’ attention!
But the problem is...
There is no news about Adrian himself in the World Economic News!
Can you believe this?
These dead Tianlong people in the strong city fortress are all crying!
In fact, Adrian misunderstood Morgans on this point.
As the president of World Economic News, Big News Bird likes to stir up trouble at certain times and tease the sensitive minds of Dahai readers.
For example, in the original work, this big news bird once reported the death of Saab, the chief of staff of the Revolutionary Army. (Suspected false alarm, let’s wait for the old thief Oda to bury it)
But at certain important moments, Morgans will still uphold the most basic "authenticity" quality of a journalist.
Especially when Adrian is in the news.
The big news bird still remembers White Ghost's casual rescue of him during the War of All Nations! (Of course, it is also possible that the opponent let it go. In that battle, Adrian killed several so-called kings of the dark world and almost shuffled the entire dark world)
And to be honest, as the president of World Economic News, Morgans, who controls countless news birds, his intelligence gathering ability is also the best in the sea!
Although Morgans was not in the Holy Land Mariejoia when the battle took place that day, he was by no means ignorant of the fighting situation in the Holy Land!
At the very least...
The big news bird knows about Adrian's fight with someone high up in the World Government! (Although he does not know the true identity of the ‘senior’)
However, when Morgans was about to beautifully exaggerate what White Ghost had done, he would use the World Economic News to spread it to the entire sea.
Wulaoxing directly issued an order, ordering "Shijing Daily" not to include any content about the White Ghost in its news reports!
As for the reason?
The World Government does not want Im's existence to be known to the world.
What's more...
A legendary pirate broke into Mariejoia head-on and fought with the gods behind the World Government for several days. Not only was he not defeated, he actually escaped successfully...
If such reports were spread, wouldn't the majesty of the world government simply collapse to the bottom of the sea?
Back then, when the Golden Lion "bravely broke into the Navy Headquarters" for Roger, wasn't he also defeated and sent to Impel Down again?
It is precisely because of this that there is no news description about Adrian in the World Economic News.
As for Fisher Tiger, the real "initiator", he was not reported by the World Economic News. This was purely due to the "help" of a certain yellow-suited lieutenant general at the Navy Headquarters who did not want to be named.
What?
Is this red fish-man the culprit behind the "Marie Joa attack"?
Isn't it a slave that escaped in the chaos?
Although the strength is not bad, it is just like that.
What kind of fish-man karate, what kind of two-color domineering, what kind of fruit-squeezing...
I haven’t seen them at all~
And tell the truth.
Compared with what Adrian, Dorag and others did on the core battlefield of Mariejoia, Fisher Tiger's "guerrilla-style" wandering battles on the periphery were indeed very inconspicuous.
Not even the World Government itself was aware of the existence of this fish-man explorer.
Invisibly, Fisher Tiger dodged a bullet.
As for whether he will continue to form the "Sun Pirates" in the future, whether he will continue to be wanted by the Navy Headquarters, and whether he will continue to die in the hands of the Navy...
Then it depends on Fisher Tiger’s own choice.
Adrian put down the World Economic News in his hands out of boredom.
At the same time, Xia Qi behind the bar had also completed the calculation of the value of the Tianlong people's corpses - who knows how she calculated it.
The living Tianlong people were auctioned once, but the auction value was also difficult to measure. (The Chambord Islands banned the slave trade for three years, and the Marshal of the Navy Headquarters lost face)
And the dead Tianlong people...
"Ninety-five million Baileys!"
Xia Qi quoted her price.
"Really this price?"
Adrian's expression became strange inexplicably.
"I've never done this business before, but the price... should be about the same!"
There was obvious uncertainty in the tone of the landlady Xia Qi's voice.
There are not many people on the sea who dare to offend the majesty of the Celestial Dragons. After all, offending the Celestial Dragons is in a sense directly equivalent to throwing a general in the face.
But what Xia Qi can be sure of is that there are absolutely countless people in the sea who hate the Tianlong people!
They dare not provoke the living Tianlong people.
But the corpse of the dead Celestial Dragon...
Don’t you dare to vent your anger?
As long as the intelligence information about the sale of corpses is concealed more closely, and the identity of the buyers is more strictly verified, so that this business cannot be discovered by the world government, then it can be done!
And it’s a huge profit!
"Okay, nine thousand five, just nine thousand five."
Adrian shrugged and did not discuss the price of a melon and two dates with the landlady Xia Qi.
"How much do you want to charge?"
The proprietress Xia Qi took a deep look at this strange man. This old man who had traveled across the sea for decades had developed a feeling called "admiration" for a man in his life.
"How many do you have?"
When she said these words, an indescribable sense of absurdity emerged in the heart of the proprietress Xia Qi, mixed with some unknown secret excitement.
This is a Celestial Dragon!
"At least two to three hundred, I haven't calculated it carefully." Adrian said uncertainly, "I can only judge that more than half of the Draconians in Mariejoia are here with me."
Bang!
Bang!
Bang! X3
Reilly fell to the bar floor.
Fisher Tiger fell to the bar floor.
The three Hancock sisters fell to the bar floor.
Boom! Boom!
The proprietress Xia Qi put her hands on the bar to prevent her from falling like the others, but her legs were also shaking and weak.
Over, over half?
Do you have any words?
The proprietress Xia Qi trembled and followed the white ghost to make a deal. The savings in the rip-off bar were not enough to support the purchase of so many Tianlong corpses.
Adrian very considerately "keep the account" and wait until the proprietress Xia Qi finds a buyer before giving him the money.
"...By the way, are you still doing business with the CP0 chief here?"
After groping for a long time in the stronghold, Adrian suddenly found a Yao Yao Man who had been knocked unconscious by him and sent in.
Xia Qi was already numb.
So many Tianlong people have died, what does a mere CP0 chief mean?
Isn't it a monster that's on the same level as Old Thunderhead in his prime?
Hehe, hehe...
"Dead?"
"No, this one is alive."
Adrian didn't take out the ibuprofen for the time being. If this guy comes out later and wakes up on his own, there might be another battle. Trouble!
"It's alive... Haha..." A very stiff smile appeared on the face of the proprietress Xia Qi, "You old man, do you think this tavern of mine can lock up a master of this level?"
< br>
"Find sea-floor stone handcuffs... Actually, they can't be locked up. Forget it, we'll find a way to deal with it later." Adrian couldn't make up his mind for a while.
All Draco corpses have been sold.
Smash four big holes in the rip-off bar and earn more than 30 billion beli!
Adrian's mood improved a lot.
He also purchased some information from Xia Qi about the location of the uninhabited islands in the New World and the Windless Zone, and gained several permanent pointers.
Pluto, who had been demented for a long time, finally found an opportunity to intervene.
"Is this how you plan to avoid 'that one'?"
"Yes, to be precise, it's the former."
Adrian clapped his hands, feeling relaxed and planning to leave the rip-off bar.
"The uninhabited island in the windless zone is a gift I just thought of and planned to leave to the CP0 chief."
After all, he was a strong man above level 100. Adrian was unwilling to return him directly to the World Government.
The back of [Gate of Underworld] is a good place to go, it’s quiet and you won’t be escaped.
But the problem is...
Adrian was not sure whether sending ibuprofen into the [Gate of Hell] would directly kill this super blood cow.
Where in the underworld is a place where living people can stay?
After thinking about it, the uninhabited island in the windless zone is barely a suitable place.
As for the uninhabited islands in the New World?
Adrian plans to bring some sand sculptures who are not afraid of death.
By the way, complete the career advancement mission of [Sea Emperor].
Little leeks!
Your big killer is coming back! (End of chapter)
