"We've finally arrived at Roguetown.”
In the Eastern Sea, Ji Lingyun and Marko stood in front of Roguetown, their faces full of emotion. The two of them had made it here with great difficulty, and only they themselves knew how much hardship they had endured.
"Is Roger going to be executed here?”Marko said as he looked at the bustling Roguetown.
"Swoosh!"
The moment Marko said this, at least half of the pedestrians around looked over. Marko was shocked by this sudden change and asked,"What happened to the people here?"
Ji Lingyun quickly pulled Marko to the side and whispered,"Can't you keep a low profile? Now that Roger is about to be executed, don't you think it's a little ostentatious to mention his name here? Keep a low profile. Don't forget that our identities are also very ostentatious. If the navy finds out that we're from the White Beard Pirates, who knows how they'll deal with us.”
Although he didn't know the exact situation here, Ji Lingyun felt that it was better to be careful. Roguetown was definitely completely controlled by the navy now, and it was at the critical moment of executing Roger. The navy probably didn't want to complicate matters, but if they were too ostentatious, Ji Lingyun would definitely strangle them in the cradle.
Marko wasn't stupid. After Ji Lingyun's reminder, he also realized the seriousness of the problem. Although Roger was the main culprit, the navy definitely wouldn't mind capturing a few more pirates to establish their prestige.
"Let's find a place to stay first." "We can't expose our identities." Ji Lingyun said to Marko.”
"Don't worry. There shouldn't be many people who know me in this place. I'll be fine if I'm careful."”
Marko wasn't as famous as he was later, and his fame was only in the New World. There weren't many people who knew him in a small place like Donghai. However, he definitely had a record in the navy, so he naturally didn't dare to be too ostentatious.
Roguetown was originally a small town in the East Sea. However, after Roger became the Pirate King, the village became famous all of a sudden. Now, it had become the place where everything started and ended. The Pirate King sailed from here and ended here. Therefore, Roguetown was now filled with people everywhere. These people were all here to watch the execution ceremony of the Pirate King.
With so many people, prices naturally rose. Marko spent a lot of money to find a place to stay temporarily.
As there were still seven days before Roger's execution, Ji Lingyun was not in a hurry. Instead, he and Marko began to wander around Roguetown. Although they said they were wandering, Ji Lingyun was actually looking for someone who could help him unseal Zhan Yue.
After searching for three consecutive days, Ji Lingyun still couldn't find his target. However, he wasn't too anxious. He knew that the person he was looking for would definitely come to Roguetown and watch the execution ceremony of One Piece Roger.
On the fourth day, the bored Ji Lingyun pulled the equally bored Marko and the two of them hurriedly ran to the seaside outside Roguetown to relax. Since yesterday, the defense of Roguetown had suddenly become very strict. The navy could be seen everywhere, and these navies were also conducting strict inspections everywhere. Anyone who saw something wrong would be pulled over and questioned. In order to avoid trouble, Ji Lingyun and the others could only go out during the day and return at night.
"This group of marines is really annoying. If he didn't want people to see it, why would he carry out a public execution?”Marko complained unhappily.
"I'm guessing that the navy isn't worried about the others, but that the Roger Pirates will come and kidnap them."”
The navy must have been worried that Roger's pirates would come to save him by conducting such a large-scale search. That was the pirate group of One Piece King. Even the navy did not dare to be careless. They had to go all out.
"Didn't Roger's Pirates disband?" Marko asked. Will they come here again?"
Ji Lingyun didn't answer directly. Instead, he asked Marko,"Let me give you an example. If the person who will be publicly executed in a few days is my father, will you come back to rob the execution ground?”
"Bullsh * t, how could dad be caught by the navy? That's impossible.”Marko instantly exploded.
Ji Lingyun rolled his eyes and said," I've already said it. It's just an analogy. I'm just asking, will you come?"”
"Isn't that nonsense?" Marko immediately said. Of course they had to come. Not only did they have to come, but they also had to turn this place upside down and kill all the navy.”
"Isn't that it?" Ji Lingyun said. The navy was worried about this, which was why they were on guard.”
Marko understood what Ji Lingyun meant, but he frowned and asked,"Ling Yun, do you think the Roger Pirates will come?”
"He will come, but not to rob the execution ground, but to send Uncle Roger off.”Ji Lingyun answered with certainty.
"What logic is this?" Marko asked, puzzled. Since they were already here, why didn't they make a move? Could it be that they were afraid of death? No, that's impossible. Although those bastards from Roger's Pirates are not as good as our White Beard Pirates, they are definitely not cowards. How could they not rob people when they came?”
Ji Lingyun said," That's because Uncle Roger didn't allow them to do that. Actually, Uncle Roger is already seriously ill and doesn't have much time left. That's why he surrendered himself to the navy headquarters. Otherwise, do you think the navy would be able to catch Uncle Roger?" Since Uncle Roger surrendered himself, it meant that he had his reasons. Naturally, his former subordinates would not disobey his orders.”
"What is it? Roger turned himself in? Was he seriously ill? Ling Yun, how did you know?"
Upon hearing this news, Marko's face was filled with shock. The contents of Ji Lingyun's words were simply too shocking. The entire world knew that Roger was captured by the navy because the navy had announced this. If people knew about this, it would cause a huge commotion.
"Do you still remember the last time Roger came to look for Dad?" Actually, he had already told Dad and me that time, but Dad told me to keep it a secret, so I didn't tell you. After all, this is Uncle Roger's own secret. He can tell us, but we can't tell others.”
" If that's the case," Marko said solemnly," I'm afraid things aren't that simple. Roger knew that he was going to die, but he still turned himself in. He must have another motive."”
