Chapter 239 Alice's Request for Help (Additional Update 13)

Robin emerged from the woods and came to Qingmu. He looked at the bodies on the shore below and blinked.

"what happened?"

"The pirates are coming."

Aoki said concisely and concisely.

Robin suddenly realized: "No wonder I just heard what sounded like a cannonball!"

"What's the result?" Aoki asked.

Of course he was not asking about this battle, but the results of the ruins investigation.

Robin shook his head: "There is nothing related to Devil Fruits in this ruins."

"What a pity!" Aoki shook his head calmly: "Then let's be next."

Alice stood on the shore with her arms folded across her chest, making an exaggerated arc. Her eyes were unfocused and she didn't know what she was thinking.

At this time, Huck came over.

"General...general!"

Alice came to her senses.

"What are the casualties?"

Huck smiled: "Thanks to the general, no one died. Although a few people were seriously injured, their lives were not in danger."

"Very good!"

Alice breathed a sigh of relief, and a smile appeared on her face.

Huck looked excited.

“More importantly, the ships were saved, and there were two of them!

Now is the vacuum period of the enemy's power. Not only can we escape from the island, but we can also completely get rid of the enemy! "

This is not the kind of garbage they built, but a pirate ship that has been proven to be able to sail in the new world!

Alice was silent for a few seconds.

"Huck, where can we go after leaving here?"

Huck said without hesitation: "No matter where you go, it's better than staying here."

Alice asked: "What about Etania?"

The excitement on Huck's face slowly dissipated.

"General, there are some things that cannot be done by humans!"

Alice took a deep breath and turned to look at the sea.

"Huck, I decided not to leave for the time being!"

Huck frowned, already having a premonition of this.

"Your Highness, Aitania's matter is irreversible, but as long as you are alive, there is hope for Aitania!"

Alice's tone became stronger.

"I have decided on this matter! It just so happens that there are two ships here. Those who want to leave can take one of them!"

Huck's expression changed greatly, and he lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, I definitely don't have such thoughts, I just..."

Alice interrupted.

"Huck, I don't blame you. What I just said is true. You have done enough to be worthy of me and Etania. I will never stop anyone who wants to leave!"

Huck said seriously: "Since His Highness has decided, we will naturally follow His Highness!"

Alice nodded slightly and said nothing more.

night.

"That is a ruins from 100 years ago..."

Robin told Aoki about the interesting discoveries in the ruins and her next plan.

Dang Dang Dang.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.

Aoki walked over, opened the door and saw the red-haired and busty Alice.

However, today she was alone, without her subordinates.

Aoki led Alice into the room, and Robin poured tea.

"This is black tea from the West Sea. General Alice can try it."

"Thank you!"

Alice picked up the cup and took a big gulp. She was obviously not a tea drinker.

Aoki said: "Congratulations to General Alice for your great victory today."

Alice put down her tea cup.

"Thanks to Mr. Aoki, without Mr. Aoki's help, even if we could win, the casualties would definitely be very serious!"

Aoki glanced at her: "My help? Did General Alice misunderstand something?"

Alice smiled.

"I have been unable to do anything well since I was a child. I cannot learn court etiquette. I know nothing about running a country. I cannot understand strategies. My only advantage is that I am good at fighting.

Of course, in this sea, the strength I am proud of is not worth mentioning.

However, I was not unaware of the accidents that occurred during the battle.

There was obviously a big problem with the deaths of the two pirates. I checked their bodies afterwards and found traces of needle punctures on their bodies.

Combined with the location, it can be judged that it is basically consistent with the accident that happened during their battle. "

Aoki said with a smile: "It's just a little effort, the fundamental reason is that the general is strong enough. Don't take it to heart, general, just treat it as a reward for the supplies you gave us before!"

Alice stood up from the sofa, walked to Aoki, and suddenly knelt down.

"Mr. Aoki, please save my father! Save Etania!"

What she wore was not revealing at all, but her figure was so explosive. When she knelt on the ground and squeezed lightly, she developed an astonishing curve.

Aoki said: "General Alice, you should get up first! You said you wanted me to save Etania, but you must first tell me what happened to Etania."

Alice looked a little sad.

“Actually, I am the princess of the Kingdom of Etania.

About two years ago, a large-scale insect infestation broke out in the kingdom, causing almost no crops to be harvested across the country and plunging the people into extreme poverty.

Therefore, we did not raise enough heavenly gold to be removed from the world government. "

Hearing this, Aoki had already roughly guessed how things would develop next.

This world is full of pirates.

Countries that join the World Government are relatively safe with the protection of their navy.

And if a country does not have the protection of the navy and is not strong enough, it will be miserable and may become a paradise for pirates.

This is the punishment of the World Government on those kingdoms that did not join the World Government for various reasons, and it is also a warning to the member countries.

If they do not obey the orders of the World Government and do not pay the Heavenly Gold on time, this is their fate!

This makes people have to suspect that the proliferation of pirates is likely to be allowed by the World Government.

Of course.

Since Roger opened the Age of Discovery, the situation has begun to go beyond the control of the World Government.

Alice continued to tell the story, and Aoki and Robin fully understood the truth.

Similar to Aoki's guess.

After being removed from the World Government, the number of pirate attacks on Etania increased rapidly.

The already bad situation quickly collapsed.

Ambitious people and conspirators appeared one after another, the border was endlessly plundered, and the entire country was in danger.

Relying on Alice's power, they barely survived for two years.

Until not long ago.

An extremely powerful pirate group came to Etania.

Their leader is stronger than Alice.

Having lost the last guardian, Etania fell completely.

In order to leave a spark, the king ordered Alice to take a group of people away.

Aoki was silent.

In fact, he had already noticed Alice's identity and saw that they were fleeing.

Although he did not deliberately push it, this was indeed the situation he wanted to see.

Under Alice's nervous gaze, Aoki raised his head.

"I can help you, but not for free."

Ellie said without hesitation: "I can bear any price!"
