The noise in the bar died down quickly because Meg Nelson came out.
Meg Nelson was a middle-aged man with long hair and a somewhat gloomy and artistic temperament. He wasn't particularly handsome, but in this world of pirates, he was considered one of the most handsome ones.
However, what he said next was not as refreshing as his appearance.
He was holding a long sword that had been unsheathed, and there were some dark red blood stains on the blade.
Meg Nelson looked at Duncan, who was dressed as a seriously injured person, and said,
"You know what? You are the second colonel to replace me in Roguetown. Do you know how the first one died?”
As soon as these words were said, whether it was Clive, Duncan, or the few lieutenant colonels in the team, all their expressions changed drastically.
That was because…according to the information they received from Sengoku, the colonel before Clive died in a sudden storm. The colonel was a demon fruit ability user, and his strength was not outstanding. The survival rate of the ship after it sank was indeed not high, so Sengoku did not pay too much attention to it.
But now it seemed that this incident was also planned by Meg Nelson.
With that, Meg Nelson swung the knife in her hand and slashed at Duncan.
Duncan smiled and shouted,""Iron!"
The knife collided with Duncan's neck and sparks flew.
"What?!" Meg Nelson was shocked. Anyone who wasn't a fool knew that this was a trap.
At this moment, the three lieutenant colonels hiding in the team also took off their disguises and put on a cloak of justice. In an instant, they subdued Meg Nelson's subordinates.
Duncan, on the other hand, took down the artistic middle-aged man in front of him in a few rounds.
Meg Nelson, who was originally not inferior to Duncan, had less than 10% of her strength left due to years of neglect.
The onlookers who saw the sudden change in the situation also became chaotic.
After all, Meg Nelson, the local emperor, had been bossing around here for several years. The sudden fall of her power made them a little flustered.
Clive knew that he needed to go out and take charge of the situation. He put down his glass, pressed a 1000 dollar bill under the glass, and walked out.
At this time, Meg Nelson, who was pressed to the ground, also said to Duncan,
"Good method, as expected of an official personally sent by the headquarters to take over."
Duncan smiled and increased the strength of his hand."Kid, you talk a lot, but…"
" However, he's not the one taking over. It's me." Clive walked in front of him and took off his cloak, revealing the cloak of justice and the tassel that symbolized the lieutenant general's title.
Seeing this, Meg Nelson's pupils constricted.
Lieutenant General, no wonder my plan went wrong. Why would the headquarters send a lieutenant general to Donghai?
At this moment, someone bought a newspaper from a passing newsbird. Then, his eyes quickly darted to Clive, who was not far away.
Seeing his friend in a daze, his companion could not help but glance at the newspaper. Then, his expression was the same as his companion's.
However, before they could be surprised for too long, Clive calmly said something surprising.
" I was entrusted by the general of the Warring States Period to deal with the corruption of the Eastern Sea Navy during my one-year term. If anyone wants to report it, they can put the letter and information into the mailbox in front of the naval base in Roguetown. My subordinates will watch this mailbox day and night. If anyone dares to obstruct this operation..."
Clive paused for a moment and looked at a mountain in the distance. After accumulating some power, he slashed out with full force.
The golden sword light tore through the sky and earth. In an instant, it slashed up the small mountain, smoothly cutting off half of the mountain's peak.
And that half of the mountain was also cut into pieces by the biting cold sword qi, not leaving a trace behind.
Although Clive had never seriously practiced swordsmanship, the skill of Susanoo's fruit, the sword of the grass, allowed him to do what only a great sword master could do.
"Like this mountain!"
With the roar of the mountain collapsing, the scene was completely silent, and one could hear a pin drop.
Clive looked at the trembling Meg Nelson and said,""As for you…"
He turned around and looked at the crowd." Your life and death will be decided by the people present. I'll vote first. I support killing. What about you? Who agrees and who disagrees?"
The crowd did not react at first. They just looked at each other. Everyone was stunned by Clive's hand and did not dare to speak.
But soon, someone spoke up.
"He killed my mother and daughter! He must die!"
"He took my property!"
……
Voices like this kept ringing out, and the boiling resentment of the people, which had been suppressed for many years, completely erupted at this moment.
Clive sneered as he looked at Meg Nelson, who was being stepped on by him, and said with a hint of mockery,
" It seems that your reputation isn't that good. Goodbye, Colonel Meg Nelson."
Then, a spiraling ball appeared in Clive's hand. He ignored Meg Nelson's pleas and pressed it directly on his head.
In an instant, even the red and white matter after Meg Nelson's head shattered was torn apart and destroyed by the strong wind of the Spiral Ball.
Seeing Meg Nelson's death, Roguetown cheered.
Clive exhaled and said to Duncan beside him,""Go to the warship and bring everyone down. Control all the low-level officers who are close to Meg Nelson. Roguetown will be under martial law for three days. No one is allowed to enter or leave."
"Yes, sir!"
" Oh right, select a few resident representatives and identify the few people who bully the people the most. Remember, we don't need evidence."
"Understood."
Clive looked at the Roguetown base behind him. He was glad that he did not join the navy here, but at the No. 14 naval base near Tapu Town. It was a base built on an island chain and was the dock of the East China Sea Navy.
If he were to join the navy for convenience, he would definitely become a pirate.
Of course, he went to Base No. 14 because they only needed to build ships and did not need to take on additional combat missions.
