Chapter 121: Three Hundred Million Belly
Queen Sarie, who was covered with flesh and blood, fainted instantly.
"Stop!"
At this time, an anxious voice was heard from the side of the palace.
Outlook III, who had hurried over, looked at his adopted son lying on the ground with his head smashed. His face was extremely ugly, and he shouted angrily: "The Kingdom of Goa is part of the affiliated country of the World Government. Do you know what you are doing?!"
"Don't even mention you. Even if it's pirates from the Grand Line or a warlord, once they are confirmed to have the intention of stealing the country, there is only one thing waiting for them, death!"
Kuro's expression remained unchanged: "Then do you know what this guy did?"
"It's just a few ordinary people's lives…"
"Ordinary people?"
Kuro raised his eyebrows, the bloody Cat Claws in his hand flashed with a cold light, and he said lightly: "You treat them as slaves, but Gawain treats them, and us, as human beings."
"In addition…"
A hint of sarcasm gradually appeared on Kuro's face: "The World Government shouldn't care about the succession to the throne, right? Otherwise, how could the Kingdom of Goa fall into your hands?"
"Whether it's the king who died inexplicably or the princes who died one after another, they are all obvious doubts, aren't they?"
Outlook III secretly thought that something was wrong, but his face remained calm as he denied it: "I don't know what you're talking about."
Kuro's expression remained unchanged. He turned and looked at Outlook III in front of him with a playful look.
He suddenly gave up the idea of killing him on the spot.
After all, even if Outlook III was killed here, what would happen is just another person ascending to the throne.
But if Outlook III is allowed to stay here and succeed to the throne, and they have something on him, then there will be much more room for maneuver.
Thinking of this, Kuro looked at Outlook III and smiled: "Whether it is or not, you know it in your heart."
"Besides, Sterry is dead, and he has no offspring. With your skills, if you can do something about it, the throne can be yours, too."
"Besides, I heard from Gawain that you should have another son, right? A son with your blood flowing in his veins."
"Is his name Sabo? His current strength is much stronger than you think. According to Gawain, he is even stronger than him."
Sabo's face instantly appeared in Outlook III's mind, and he said angrily: "You mean the rebellious boy who lived in the garbage mountain and associated with the untouchables?"
"I absolutely cannot agree with this! Such a person has no right to be a noble!"
"He is a born inferior, a reptile! He cannot be the king of this country!"
Outlook III became so angry that even Kuro was a little surprised.
After all, no matter from which perspective, it is better for a son with one's own blood to inherit the throne than an adopted son who has no blood relationship and looks like a good-for-nothing at first glance.
However, he was not concerned about Outlook III's family affairs; he only cared about the interests of the Pirate crew and the stability of the rear base in East Blue.
"I have no interest in your family affairs. I am just telling you this fact."
Outlook III fell silent, but his eyes still revealed unspeakable anger.
Apparently, even after so many years, his anger towards Sabo has not dissipated with time.
But after all, what lies before him is the most powerful pirate in the East Blue, and it also concerns his own secrets, so he has to treat it with caution.
After a while, Outlook III said: "Can you really guarantee that my affairs will not be known by the World Government? Will it not be made public?!"
After hearing those words, a smile appeared on Kuro's lips.
The fish has been hooked.
He naturally knew what Outlook III was worried about.
However, as long as they pay the Heavenly Tribute on time, the World Government will not take the initiative to intervene in matters such as usurpation of power.
However, once it is brought to the surface, it will concern the reputation of the World Government, so it must be dealt with even if it is time-consuming and laborious.
"Of course, after all, we don't want to drag you down with us to destruction."
Kuro spread his hands and said calmly: "Besides, the purpose of our trip is to get back the money that belongs to Raven Harbor."
When the Raven Harbor was mentioned, Outlook III turned to look at Sterry's body; his eyes turned cold and were filled with unspeakable contempt.
"Really."
"I shouldn't have expected too much from you."
"Sabo, that rebellious son, has no faith in being a noble of the kingdom, and you are simply stupid."
"I've told you long ago that as a King, you shouldn't give up your credibility for a little bit of profit."
"Now, it seems that putting my hopes on you is really not as good as doing it myself!"
Outlook III then turned to look at Kuro and said: "Now we can talk about your conditions."
"Snort."
Kuro snorted coldly and said: "Repay the debt owed to Raven Harbor."
Outlook III nodded: "That's not a problem. After all, the Kingdom of Goa owes you this."
"Anything else?"
Kuro continued: "Raven Harbor is going to hold the East Blue Martial Arts Tournament soon and needs to raise some sponsorship money."
After speaking, Kuro held up three fingers: "Just give me three hundred million Belly!!"
Outlook III did not answer immediately but narrowed his eyes and fell into deep thought.
Even a mediocre person like Sterry was promoted to a high position by him, which shows that he has all the necessary skills, foresight, and decisiveness.
At this moment, he could see the deep meaning behind the Martial Arts Tournament at a glance.
"Using the name of the Martial Arts Tournament, you will attract the attention of the whole world and completely dominate the commercial areas of Raven Harbor and the surrounding areas."
Kuro was surprised, then his eyes instantly became dangerous, and he even began to think about whether he should get rid of the man in front of him right now.
After he spoke, Outlook III looked at Kuro.
To be honest, Outlook III didn't even dare to raise his voice when speaking to this man who exuded the same kind of aura from head to toe.
To be truly assured that the man would not shut him up forever...
"I want to invest in it!"
"I want to own a portion of the shares of the Raven Harbor Martial Arts Tournament!"
"You know, as long as I have full control over the Kingdom of Goa, I will be able to help you avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble."
The ability to see the potential benefits of the Martial Arts Tournament so quickly is there is only Gawain!
The scene became quiet for a moment.
Only Gin slowly walked to Kuro's side, with Sterry's blood dripping slowly from the Tonfa in his hand.
Pah! Pah! Pah!
"Deal!"
With Kuro's affirmative answer, Outlook III also breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Gin with lingering fear.
He knows that if Kuro had said no, the man with the devilish look on his face would kill him in an instant, just like Sterry, who was lying on the ground cold.
The Kingdom of Goa issued an obituary, King Sterryi accidentally fell to his death, and his father, Outlook III, will inherit the throne.
The next day, the son died, and the father succeeded him, and the whole country was in an uproar.
Even nobles from several towns raised the banner of rebellion at the same time and led their armies to attack the capital of the Kingdom of Goa.
For a time, the entire Kingdom of Goa was shrouded in the shadow of war.
