King Arthur, Apprentice of Roger’s Company Chapter 168

May.

Time flew by.

Clap!

Clap!

A figure dressed in a漆-black suit walked step by step along the road. He wore a snake mask, making it impossible to see his face. Aside from judging him to be male from his suit, everything else was indiscernible.

“Snake.”

“Hmm.”

Another voice came, from a figure also dressed in a漆-black suit, wearing an ox mask. Hearing the call, Snake merely nodded coldly, saying frigidly, “Ox, have you found the intel?”

It was a question, but through such a terrifyingly cold voice, it became a dreadful statement, devoid of any emotion. Perhaps, this was how it would be for those with emotionally detached hearts.

“No.”

Ox shook his head, saying coldly, “The Britannian sea area is impossible to enter. There are only two ways in: either through the Calm Belt or through the New World. But no matter which method, there are people guarding it, and they will immediately launch an attack upon entry. Moreover, everyone in the Britannian sea area is fixed, all bearing marks, making it impossible to enter.”

“I understand.”

Listening to Ox, Snake nodded and said, “I will report this matter to the higher-ups, but no matter what, even if it requires immense effort, we must integrate people into the Britannian sea area. This world does not allow any place to exist that is not under our control.”

“I know.”

Ox also nodded coldly.

Snake and Ox, their eyes cold, exchanged glances and then left separately. It was as if they had never been there. As they departed, even every footprint and every movement on the island seemed to have never existed. Everything seemed to have never existed, showing that the two were absolutely top-tier agents, incredibly outstanding in their ability to conceal themselves!

Of course!

This only showed that they belonged to the CP organization, but not CP 0. Instead, they were part of another special CP organization. As is well known, the CP organization is an intelligence organization, and CP 0 is known as the Shield of the Celestial Dragons, bearing such a title, they are called the Celestial Dragons’ lackeys.

And!

Snake and Ox, their branch, is known as the Spear of the Celestial Dragons. They are legendary hunters, also lackeys of the Celestial Dragons. No matter the time, anyone who dares to challenge the Celestial Dragons, even those of noble status, will be dealt with cleanly by their hands, with no one knowing who took action.

This is their power. They hide in the shadows, wearing漆-black suits and animal masks, like terrifying venomous snakes. They wait for the opportunity to strike a fatal blow, obeying their master’s commands. No matter the opponent, they will never hesitate to deliver a fatal strike!

The assassination organization of the CP, known as the Spear of the Celestial Dragons, has never been widely known in the sea because they are venomous snakes hidden in the shadows. All who have seen them are already dead, so there will be no leaks whatsoever.

…

Arthur didn’t know that Britannia had been targeted by such people, but he probably guessed that Britannia had been targeted by the CP organization. This was nothing to him; the CP organization had always wanted to infiltrate the Britannian sea area.

It’s just!

This was his kingdom. If the CP organization were allowed to infiltrate, then would it still be his kingdom? Because of this, Arthur had always been very strict in guarding against these things. Whether it was ships brought back from trade or civilians coming, he could only say that with the special power contained in Britannia Island, those with special ideas were truly too much.

Five months!

These five months had been very peaceful for Britannia. Everything developed steadily: strength, combat power, economy, population, all aspects were improving comprehensively.

After all!

With no shortage of money to begin with, the revival of myths brought by Britannia Island had now given birth to many resources. The entire Britannian sea area, apart from Britannia Island, had 35 islands, and each island had precious special resources. And once these resources were exploited, how enormous would the profits be? In fact, this was already an unquestionable matter.

Clap!

Clap!

Arthur, accompanied by Agravain and Bedivere, walked along the road and asked, “Has it been confirmed?”

“Yes!”

Agravain nodded seriously and said, “Your Majesty! It can be confirmed that there are at least a dozen or more factions secretly observing us in the outer reaches of the Britannian sea area, looking for an opportunity. However, there is no action at present, only quiet observation.”

“Hmm!”

Arthur nodded and said, “For now, don’t mind these people. Their eyes are impossible to clean up. If you clear this batch, another batch will appear. Just leave them there. Keep track of all their positions, after all, knowing everything is better than the problems caused by knowing nothing.”

“Yes!”

Listening to Arthur, Agravain immediately nodded seriously.

Arthur continued to ask, “Has Shipwright Tom returned?”

Bedivere reported, “Your Majesty, Shipwright Tom should arrive in the Britannian sea area in three days.”

“Hmm!”

Arthur nodded. Five months ago, before he returned, Shipwright Tom had returned to Fish-Man Island for some reason. It was said that because of the Sea Train, Tom remembered some research blueprints he had left there. If he brought them back and studied them carefully, he should be able to conquer the Sea Train. Likewise, Arthur also attached great importance to Shipwright Tom.

After all!

A person who once built pirate ships for the Roger Pirates was very dangerous! A slight oversight could lead to a huge accident. Because of this, such a situation absolutely required vigilance. If there was any slack, it would become very troublesome. Because of this, when Tom returned to Fish-Man Island, Arthur had Galahad send him back. Likewise, Galahad would also return to Britannia, and the matters of Fish-Man Island would be left to Gareth.

“Oh, right.”

“How has the situation on Fish-Man Island been these past five months?”

Arthur stopped, having returned to the courtyard. He sat down on a chair prepared in the backyard. Because he didn’t like black tea, his little maid had prepared green tea for him, and he simultaneously asked Agravain.

Hoo~~~

Quietly savoring the green tea, feeling its bitterness, Arthur slightly narrowed his eyes. It was truly comfortable. In these five months, he had been mastering his further advanced Red Dragon bloodline and also mastering the power of the island. This explosive growth in power required time for him to grasp. Otherwise, even a slight problem could be fatal in battle. Because of this, Agravain had been responsible for all the work during these five months.

Agravain respectfully reported, “Your Majesty! The situation on Fish-Man Island has completely stabilized. The Fish-Man Knight Order has gradually grown. In addition, the Knight Order formed by 100, 000 Fish-Men has become increasingly outstanding under Gareth’s training. Under the protection of Galahad and Gareth, Fish-Man Island’s trade is now perfectly maintained. Furthermore, all pirates on Fish-Man Island also abide by the rules, replenishing their supplies and then leaving.”

“Hmm!”

Arthur also nodded seriously to this, and continued to instruct, “Pay attention! This matter must not be taken lightly. As for pirates! Never be careless with them, they are a type of lunatic creature, remember that!”

“Yes!”

Agravain immediately nodded and said, “I will inform Gareth of this matter later.”

Arthur took another sip of green tea and continued to ask, “Keep talking! How are the other situations?” (For exhilarating novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

“Your Majesty!”

“Over in Wano Country, the overall situation is completely stable. Without external pressure, both the training of the two knight orders and Lady Kouzuki’s control over Wano Country have been very fast. Moreover, the armor, greatswords, and spears forged in Wano Country have already been completed and shipped to Fish-Man Island. The knight order in Wano Country, primarily composed of samurai, has also been outfitted with armor. The armor for the Britannian sea area should arrive in about a day, reaching us tomorrow.”

“Hmm~~~”

Arthur pondered for a moment, then continued, “Bedivere, you will go to receive them tomorrow. There must be no problems with these forged armors!”

“Yes!”

Bedivere respectfully lowered his head, placing a hand over his chest, which was a standard knight’s禮. Indeed, as Arthur said, the probability of problems occurring was very low, but even a slight probability must never be taken lightly. This was a matter of utmost importance. Therefore, in all these aspects, if there was any carelessness, the loss of money would be a minor issue, but the loss of time and the replenishment of the enemy’s forces would be the major issues.

Don’t underestimate these armors and weapons. You know, in ancient times, secretly possessing a knife might not be a capital offense, but secretly possessing armor was! From this, one can see how astonishing the importance of armor was! In addition to this, there were many other reasons. It can be said that under these numerous reasons.

If these things were lost, they would only increase the enemy’s strength! Such a situation was simply unacceptable to Arthur. At the very least, Arthur would absolutely not allow it.

“Continue!”

After arranging this matter, Arthur continued to issue orders.

Agravain continued to report, but the following reports were simpler, more like routine daily reports, just simple updates. Basically, they were very easy matters, and Arthur dealt with them while drinking tea. Soon, everything was handled.

“Hmm!”

Arthur nodded and said, “The rest are minor matters, no need to be overly vigilant!”

“Yes!”

Agravain nodded respectfully, and at the same time, continued, “Your Majesty! It can now be confirmed that among the countries participating in this war against Britannia, in addition to the superpower led by the Iron Empire and ten empires, there are also numerous other countries. We have currently confirmed a total of 21 countries.”

“A total of 32 countries!”

Arthur’s voice was calm and gentle as he said, “That’s truly a powerful force. One who doesn’t know might think I’m some terrifying monster, like the Rocks Pirates or Captain Roger’s Roger Pirates.”

“Hehehe~~~”

Arthur chuckled faintly, “Such a situation is truly interesting! No one knows what the outcome will be, but one thing is certain: things will only get more interesting from now on. Beneath this calm lies an endless storm!”

The Great Pirate Era erupted!

Now!

It was still in its rising period. Countless pirates sailed out, pouring into the Grand Line and the New World. Innumerable wars were breaking out daily throughout the New World. No, no! It should be said that wars were breaking out daily throughout the entire world. Under the terrifying wars, it seemed as if everything was about to be swept away.

And under such a terrifying war situation, many situations had become completely different, and naturally, everything had become different.

Because of this!

The current situation was truly different, especially with the chaos of pirates, which made individual countries seem very peaceful. However, behind the seemingly calm facade, there was actually extraordinary chaos!

“Hmm~~~”

“Oh, right!”

Arthur asked, “Are there any news of other pirate crews? Also, can you confirm who is behind contacting so many countries this time?”

“It can be confirmed!”

Agravain said seriously, “Your Majesty! The person behind contacting so many countries this time is Charlotte Linlin. She contacted these countries behind the scenes to form an expeditionary force against Britannia.”

“Hehehe~~~”

Arthur chuckled faintly, crossing his legs, and said, “Truly! I completely guessed it! That madwoman Linlin truly can’t stand losing even a little bit! I took her treasure from her treasure vault back then, and now she’s using favors to try and annihilate all of Britannia.”

Arthur shook his head with emotion. Charlotte Linlin, through her own marriages or her children’s marriages, had connections with numerous forces in the world. Moreover, Linlin was an excellent woman; many times, she would make others owe her favors, such as Kaido, Shiki, Newgate, Wang Zhi, John, Silver Axe…

And so on!

All these people owed Linlin favors, and when brought out at a crucial moment, those favors could be very important. As for whether they would repay them? Don’t be silly! For pirates, they might be cunning and treacherous, but if they didn’t even do what they promised, that would be too disgraceful, truly bringing shame upon themselves!

Because of this!

Linlin possessed a large number of favors, and this time, she even directly activated so many favors just to destroy him.

“Well!”

“After all, no one knows what that madwoman Linlin will do, but since Linlin is the one organizing it, then this matter won’t be that simple.”

A cold killing intent emerged, Arthur’s eyes were unusually sharp. Are you kidding? He couldn’t say he was an ungrateful person, but he was definitely not someone who would wait meekly if you came looking for trouble.

Don’t be silly!

Arthur wasn’t that kind of person. On the contrary, Arthur was someone who, if you came looking for trouble, would absolutely not show mercy and would kill you.

“Big Mom Pirates!”

“Charlotte Family!”

“Hmm~~~”

Arthur slightly narrowed his eyes, pondering in his mind what his chances of victory would be if he were to truly attack Whole Cake Island and start a war! After all, attacking and defending brought different situations. In defense, he could exert 200% of his power, while in attack, at most 80%!
