Pirate Hero Advent - Chapter 222

c221 war of two

For creatures in the natural world, “seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages” is an instinct imprinted deep in the soul. Human beings can overcome this instinct through long-term exercise, but it still exists anyway.

…

Dressrosa – this is a very lively country, the so-called “land of love and passion” is exactly what it is, and passionate people can be seen on almost every street.

Now, in several streets, people have witnessed things they can’t understand.

For some unknown reason, the people on these streets quickened their pace, and the idea of ​​leaving here quickly came into their minds.

Some people who had no time to leave also walked into the shops on both sides of the street.

They don’t even know what they want to buy, but their bodies are repeatedly conveying a message——

Don’t set foot on the street in front of you.

Curious about this, some people contacted their friends through phone bugs and learned that this happened to far more than one street.

After they integrated the information, they finally discovered something, but this discovery made them even more confused.

There are dozens of “frightening” streets, and each of them is connected together. Starting from a street near the port, it extends all the way to the hinterland of Dressrosa, where the royal family is located. “King’s Heights”.

That’s one way.

A road leading directly to the highlands of the king; it is also a road that people dare not tread.

“Hey, hey, what happened?”

The young man forcibly stabilized his trembling legs, looked at the deserted street in disbelief, and was puzzled.

On the contrary, an old hunter lit himself a bag of cigarettes and recalled: “When I used to hunt, I had a similar feeling.”

“In the mountains, you sometimes see a road made of bent weeds, and experienced hunters can tell what kind of animal came out of that road.”

“If it is a wild boar, then congratulations, you will have a lot of harvest today.”

“And if it’s a man-eating tiger that’s going out that way, you’d better turn around immediately and go down the mountain in the opposite direction.”

“I once encountered the kind of road that was crushed by a tiger, and the feeling at that time was similar to now.”

The old hunter took a puff of cigarette, frowned and asked in doubt: “Could it be that some beast has slipped into the city?”

Such a question is just one of countless speculations, and people are wondering what happened.

And soon, they got the news.

On the deserted road, there are only two men walking side by side.

They are the “beasts” in the old hunter’s mouth.

“That man is… [BOSS] Lynn Barek? He’s a wanted man with a bounty of 800 million Berries!”

A passing pirate held a wanted warrant and said in shock, “Who is that big guy who can walk side by side with a criminal of Lynn’s level?”

They are just ordinary pirates, and Barrett’s activity is already a matter of the last era, so they don’t know the specific identity of Barrett.

However, even if they don’t know about Barrett, they can still tell from the aura exuded by Barrett that the man is a beast that is no less powerful than Lynn Barrett, or even surpasses Lynn Barrett!

The two of them are starting from the street near the port and heading towards King’s Heights.

The “creatures” in Dressrosa sensed the road they passed or were about to pass, and they had already prepared in advance and actively avoided it, thus forming a spectacle that the street was empty.

That is the biological instinct of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.

…

Lynn and Barrett walked side by side, two completely different auras spread out from their bodies, and the surrounding air seemed to be distorted.

Both of them were silent for a long time.

Suddenly, Lynn spoke, breaking the silence.

“It’s a conspiracy.”

“The world government wants us to lose both and then do something, they’re using you,” Lynn said.

Barrett grinned when he heard that, and said with a smile, “Ah, I already knew this, so I don’t need to emphasize it.”

After all, Douglas Barrett was also a member of the Roger Pirates, and the ups and downs along the way also exercised his strategic vision.

Therefore, Barrett is by no means a reckless man without any schemes, but rather than conspiracy, Barrett prefers to rely on his own powerful strength.

“But, so?” Barrett raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: “What does that have to do with the battle between us? Or, do you have any solution?”

While talking, the two had passed through more than a dozen streets, climbed up a large slope, and after turning around a few times, they finally arrived at their destination—the King’s Heights.

This is the seat of the Dressrosa Palace, located at the highest point of the Dressrosa Kingdom.

In the future, after the Don Quixote family captures Dressrosa, it will be transformed into a place similar to a resort center, but now it is still a standard palace-like building, and the overall decoration is quite simple.

At this moment, all the other people in the King’s Heights had already evacuated, and there was no one to guide Lynn and Barrett. The two of them walked straight to the center of the King’s Heights, where there was an extremely wide square.

Both felt that there was no need to say much, but there was always something to say before going to war.

Lynn shrugged and replied:

“The solution is actually very simple, as long as one person simply admits defeat, then we can beat up the World Government and the Don Quixote family together.”

Hearing this, Barrett suddenly burst out laughing, and Lynn did the same.

The laughter of the two spread far away, as if they heard some kind of particularly funny joke.

After the laughter had almost stopped, Barrett grinned and asked, “Admit defeat? Will you?”

Lynn shook his head, “I won’t, will you?”

Barrett said, “Me neither.”

Lynn said, “Then let’s fight.”

Barrett said, “Okay.”

…

Marlin Vandeau, Naval Headquarters, Marshal’s Office.

At this moment, Admiral of the Navy [Smart Admiral] Sengoku was clutching the receiver of a phone bug.

The person on the other side of the phone bug was the big man who was the commander-in-chief of CP0 at that time.

Judging from the position, Sengoku’s status is higher than that of CP0’s commander-in-chief, but the CP0’s commander-in-chief is extremely mysterious. Even Sengoku has never seen his real face, so he can only be contacted through phone bugs.

At this time, Zhan Guo looked a little angry, and growled at the phone bug:

“After all, Dressrosa is a member country of the World Government and belongs to the jurisdiction of the Navy, so I hope you can explain clearly why you have to mobilize so many people to Dressrosa!”

“Not only CP0, but also other numbered CP organizations, as well as some guards… The manpower you have mobilized is enough to start a war in terms of combat power. Are you trying to make civil strife happen in the allied countries?”

“Before you mobilized the felons in the city of advance, and now you are concentrating your combat power on Dressrosa, what are your plans!”

After the words of the Warring States Period were finished, the commander on the phone bug said slowly:

“Calm down, Sengoku Marshal, I will explain it clearly to you, but before that, I want to correct a mistake in what you just said.”

The CP0 commander said: “Did you think that the battle between Lynn Barek and Douglas Barrett was just an ordinary battle? You were so wrong.”

“Those are two men who can forcibly defeat the Demon Slaughter Order on their own. If we want to deal with them, even if we deploy an army from a whole country, it’s not enough!”

“War? You are right about this, Marshal of the Warring States Period.”

“The battle between the two of them is a war between two people!”
