Chapter 140 The Birth of an Actor,
The next morning, Garin called the top leaders of the Flame Dragon Kingdom to the administrative center for a meeting. Garin said with a serious face: Recently, no one has come to our Flame Dragon Kingdom to sell devil fruits. This is not acceptable. We must stand up. Senbert also looked puzzled and said: Captain, how should we stand up?
Garin said seriously: We need to intensify publicity. I will take pictures to let those people on the sea know that our Flame Dragon Kingdom uses real money to purchase devil fruits. George looked puzzled and said: How should we shoot the video?
Jialin smiled wickedly and said: Of course we have to find actors to take pictures, preferably actors who play themselves, to create public opinion and let everyone on the sea know that we are serious about purchasing devil fruits.
Barbero was also puzzled and said: Lord Yan Di, I don't understand how to create public opinion! Garin thought to himself: Isn't public opinion simple? Just throw money at it, just pick a title, isn't it? In the world of pirates, there are more people who are greedy for money. Garin smiled and said: Put all my money on the square, take out all the gold and Bailey, we have to show our muscles,
A ten-kilometer cordon has been set up in the square of the Flame Dragon Kingdom, with thousands of city defense soldiers standing guard. Bills worth 10 billion Baileys are placed in five piles, and gold, gold coins and jewelry worth more than 30 billion are placed in the square. There are also many gold ornaments, all placed in the square. Garin sits on the golden seat, and behind him are a dozen staff members holding cameras and taking pictures of Garin. Garin is still facing the camera at a 45-degree angle, looking very handsome.
Then an old man, who looked to be in his seventies, holding a pineapple-shaped devil fruit, walked up to Garin and said respectfully: Lord Yan Di, I don't want to go out to sea as a pirate. I want to sell you the devil fruit. I want 500 million. Garin took the devil fruit with a smile on his face and said: Your devil fruit is worth at most 100 million. I will reward you with 500 million, a total of 600 million. Then more than a dozen staff members carried the 600 million Baileys to the old man. The old man stood in the Bailey pile, laughing crazily, and shouted: 600 million, 600 million can't be spent in a lifetime, I'm rich, thank you Lord Yan Di,
When all the cameras were turned off, the old man said: Lord Yan Di, how was my performance just now? Jialin smiled and said: Wow, you performed really well, it was really great, I want to give you a chicken leg. The old man smiled and said: Thank you Lord Yan Di, thank you Lord Yan Di. Jialin smiled and said: George, take me downstairs to get the chicken leg. George took out 200,000 Baileys and handed them to the old man.
Then after the old man left, a middle-aged woman with a child came. The middle-aged woman was holding a red dragon fruit-shaped devil fruit in her hand. She shouted miserably: My husband died a tragic death as a pirate, leaving us an orphan and a widow. How can we live! This is my husband's legacy. She handed the devil fruit to Garin, who said seriously: Auntie, this devil fruit is worth 200 million. I will take it for 1 billion. Then the woman's face changed at the speed of light. She laughed and said: 1 billion, I have 1 billion, I can't spend it all in my lifetime, thank you, Lord Yan Di, I will sell the devil fruit to you.
Garin gave a look to Barbiro behind him, and Barbiro, with dozens of staff members, carried a large pile of Baileys and brought them to the woman with the child. The middle-aged woman lay directly on the Baileys and laughed loudly, saying: I have 1 billion yuan, I am rich, I want to find a young handsome guy,
When all the cameras were turned off, the middle-aged woman walked directly to Jialin, and said with a smile: Lord Yandi, how was my performance just now? Jialin complained crazily in his heart: I asked you to perform, not to surpass! I almost believed it. Jialin said again: Auntie, your acting skills are really great. You are better than the old man just now. Counting you and your son, I will give you 400,000 Baileys. The middle-aged woman smiled and said: Thank you Lord Yandi, remember to call me next time there is such a good thing. Jialin smiled and said: Don’t worry, Auntie, even if you don’t say it... I will call you. The middle-aged woman was delighted, took her child, received the chicken leg and left.
Garin said seriously: Barbiro... from now on, just take pictures like this, save the videos, make the photos, and advertise that our Flame Dragon Kingdom is buying back devil fruits at five times the price, and it's fair to everyone, first come first served. Garin added: Remember to rate the Bailey... banknotes behind me, and rate the picture. This pile of Baileys worth more than 10 billion should be rated as at least 50 billion. Barbiro said with an expression of "I understand", "Got it, Lord Yan Di, I'll send it to Morgans when it's done, and let him promote it on the sea." Garin knew that Barbiro understood, and that was enough.
When Jialin returned home, he saw Hancock cooking in a bright red cheongsam, which was exactly the same as the empress in the original book. Her proud breasts looked good in any clothes. Jialin picked up Hancock directly. Hancock looked shy and said: It's daytime now. Jialin said seriously: Don't worry. Hancock blushed and said: Jialin, is this really okay? Jialin looked excited and said: What's wrong with this? The stupid bird king of Wano Country opened a harem in the temple. I will only favor you, why not? Jialin took off the apron on Hancock and immediately entered the state of Dengzhaolang.
Rayleigh and Xia Qi came to Gaya Island. Rayleigh looked at the construction of the Kingdom of the Flame Dragon and was very shocked. He said: "Galin is really a talented guy. When Roger and I came to Gaya Island before, it was all occupied by pirates. Although Roger and I defeated those pirates, it was useless. Mogu Town was soon occupied by other pirates. But now it can be said to be a paradise on earth."
Xia Qi smiled and said: Look at those civilians, they are all very happy, everyone seems to be very motivated. Rayleigh looked at those tall buildings and was very shocked. He said: We really underestimated the boy Yanlong. He didn't sell the Yan Emperor for money.
Xia Qi also smiled and said: This city is worthy of being called the paradise of happiness on the sea, and there is no need to pay the heavenly gold. Brother Jialin is really amazing. Rayleigh and Xia Qi walked and visited all the way. The two came to the administrative center square.
Rayleigh sighed and said: It's really too prosperous. When I came here before, there were basically no buildings here, just some dilapidated residential houses. Now it has become the Yanlong Castle, and there are four government buildings. I also saw several mermaids working as waiters, and there is also a recycling station filled with gold and Bailey.
Xia Qi smiled and said: "How about we open a bar here? The Sabaody Archipelago is far inferior to this place." Rayleigh sighed and said: "Let's go see the little brother first." Xia Qi asked curiously: "What did the little brother Jialin say to you last time?" Rayleigh smiled and said: "He wanted to hire me, give me 500 million Baileys a year, and let me be a teacher." Xia Qi smiled and said: "Then why don't you come?" Rayleigh said with a black line on his face: "It's all because of you."
Xia Qi said directly: Let's take a look at the three sisters first. Grandma New said that Hancock has the qualifications of Conqueror's Haki and can become the new emperor of Nine Snake Island, but they were caught by slave traders because of their playfulness. Rayleigh said confidently: I have a way to help you see if that little girl has the qualifications of Conqueror's Haki.
Garin had long known that Rayleigh and Xia Qi had arrived at the Kingdom of Flame Dragon. The two came to pick up the three Hancock sisters. Garin knew that Hancock might leave, so he could only give Hancock some more soy milk, and then he brought the three Hancock sisters to Rayleigh and Xia Qi.
Rayleigh immediately activated his Conqueror's Haki and crushed the three Hancock sisters. On the Hancock sisters' side, Sandasonia and Marigold fainted immediately. Garin also knew what was going on, so he didn't say anything and just waited quietly. Hancock saw her two sisters fainted and immediately became furious and said: "How dare you hurt my sister? I won't let you go." Then her eyes were red as she stared at Rayleigh. Hancock's Conqueror's Haki emanated from her body, trying to fight against Rayleigh's. When Rayleigh saw that Hancock had awakened her Conqueror's Haki, he smiled and said: "Xia Qi does have Conqueror's Haki, and she has already awakened."
Xia Qi said with a smile: Hancock, do you know me? Hancock said angrily: How could I know you? You knocked my two sisters unconscious right away. Jialin also said: Hancock. Her name is Xia Qi, and she is the previous king of your Nine Snake Island. Hancock said with a puzzled look: You are the previous king of our Nine Snake Island. Xia Qi nodded and said: Yes... I am here to take you home, and I am going to let you take over the throne of queen.
Hancock said with a look of disgust: I won't go back, I want to stay here, there are many friends here, I want to accompany my husband, Xia Qi and Rayleigh were very shocked and said: Husband, what's the situation, Jialin said: I just got married, Hancock blushed and said: I want to be the queen of Emperor Yan, I don't want to go back,
Xia Qi said with a black face: Nine Snake Island can make you stronger quickly! Hancock said with a look of rejection: Gaya Island can also make you stronger. Xia Qi said to Rayleigh: You should think of a way quickly. If she doesn't go back, I have to go back. Rayleigh felt the pressure instantly, smiled and said: Brother Jialin, why don't you persuade her? Jialin also said with a sly smile: How can I persuade her? If you can take her away, take her away.
Lei Li said helplessly: Brother, I promise to help you complete your request, okay? Jia Lin said with a smile: Really? Then I will open a school on Gaya Island and let you be the principal. Are you willing? Lei Li said seriously: Let me think about it! Xia Qi said seriously: Promise him! Otherwise, I will have to go back to Nine Snake Island. Grandma New was angry. Lei Li said helplessly: Okay... Okay, I promise you, but we have to agree to 500 million a year.
Garin said with a smile: Don't worry, it won't be a penny less, it's just the price of a devil fruit. Garin said to Hancock again: Sister, you go to Nine Snake Island with them first, and after you become the queen of Nine Snake Island, you can continue to come back. Nine Snake Island really needs a queen. Nine Snake Island also has secret skills to make you stronger. Hancock said seriously: Garin, I listen to you,
Jialin said seriously: It won't be long before you become stronger, I will come to pick you up then. Hancock said with a smile: Got it. Rayleigh smiled and said: Brother Jialin, we are leaving first. Xia Qi said with a smile: When Hancock takes over as the queen, she will practice on Nine Snake Island for a while. After she is done practicing, you can go to pick her up.
Garin waved his hand and said: Hancock...you go experience the queen first, I will pick you up at Nine Snake Island soon. Hancock nodded and said calmly: Don't worry, Garin. Then the three Hancock sisters followed Lei Lishaqi and left. After Garin sent the three Hancock sisters away, he prepared to walk around the Kingdom of Flame Dragon and take a good look at the country he built.
Many people from surrounding countries moved to Gaya Island, and the population was increasing rapidly. According to the population statistics made by Barbiro, there were already 470,000 people, including more than 50,000 fishmen. Garin also planned to slowly send some civilians to the sky island and start the immigration plan.
Garin plans to send Caesar, Courant, Ross and others up there first, and then station a million troops on Sky Island and build his own air force base. Will the World Government dare to invade my country then? Garin thinks it is necessary. The Shandia warriors on Sky Island and the divine soldiers of the temple are very suitable to become the basic force of the air force.
There are more than 800 elite crew members on Garin's ship, as well as these dozen giant warriors, all of whom are very good targets. Garin also decided to improve the strength of the giants. He first selected the devil fruits. He still had ten bird-bird fruits, ordinary artificial devil fruits, plus the natural gas fruit, the superhuman ghost fruit, the superhuman slow fruit, the superhuman steel-steel fruit, the ordinary lizard fruit, the salamander form, and the ordinary ladybug form of the bug fruit. Garin felt that these ordinary devil fruits could be given away, and it would be useless to keep them, including the natural gas fruit given to the giant warriors. In the future, there must be at least one warrior with the strength of a general.
The superhuman Steel-Steel Fruit is also a very invincible devil fruit. If it is given to a giant warrior, he will at least have the strength of a general in the future. Garin thinks it’s better to give it away. It will definitely take some money and time to build a giant warrior.
Garin was really reluctant to give up the mythical beast fruit, the first one was too rare, and the second one, most of the mythical beast devil fruits were stronger than the natural devil fruits and the superhuman devil fruits. He must prepare them for his sons in the future. If the grade was too low, it would be useless. Garin walked to the training ground again. All the crew members were training. Senbert was also very crazy about practicing the Conqueror's Haki. The Seven Star Sword was also used by Senbert as a tool for practicing the Conqueror's Haki. He kept using the Conqueror's Haki and the sword spirit of the Seven Star Sword to fight against the willpower. Garin was also very pleased.
Garin decided to go to the Rare Beast Island, take the Beast King Horn, and then give it to Senbert to eat. At that time, he will pair it with the Dragon Fruit. Let's not talk about anything else in the future. With the double devil fruit ability, Senbert will definitely be a top-level emperor in the future. He doesn't have the strength of a genius, but I can use the devil fruit to accumulate.
