Chapter 182: Minor Conditions Of World Government (Forth Automatic)



Chapter 182: The Small Conditions of the World Government (Fourth Update Requested)

The leader of the delegation that has arrived this time is none other than Spandam!

Spandam, the head of the secret special agency CP9, directly under the World Government.

He is also the one who, over a decade ago, obtained the golden Den Den Mushi authorization to initiate the Buster Call from the former Marine Admiral Sengoku, and destroyed Robin's hometown, Ohara.

At the same time, he was also the one who initially issued a bounty on Robin.

"To think they sent him, what is the World Government thinking?" Zhao Xu thought to himself, but he was also helpless.

This time, the World Government has come up with a rare good move - they did not reveal Saitama's true identity and instead presented him as the commander.

There is no way Zhao Xu's intelligence network could penetrate CP9.

Of course, it seems that Spandam is no longer a member of CP9 now, and it is unknown whether he has been promoted or demoted. In any case, his official identity is that of a government official.

As soon as he got off the ship, he revealed a flattering smile.

"This is the Queen of Wanokuni... Oh, you should be addressed as General Kozuki Hiyori, right? As the leader of a nation, you truly possess extraordinary charisma and charm as a woman."

"You must be Lord Joutenmaru, your act of loyalty and righteousness has spread throughout the countries within the World Government's jurisdiction. Many kings lament, 'Why don't I have a warrior like this under my command...'"

"And this must be Lord Zaraki Kenpachi, the man who defeated the legendary Four Emperors. Just by getting close to you, there is an overwhelming aura that strikes fear into the hearts of the weak..."

Before Kozuki Hiyori and the others could say anything, he spoke without hesitation.

Various flattering words came out of his mouth, and his expression was extremely humble, filled with admiration.

If Zhao Xu didn't know who he was, he would almost believe it!

"He really is a bootlicker... these flattering words..." Zhao Xu's mouth twitched, and the disdainful expression of Zaraki Kenpachi he was portraying was written all over his face, completely ignoring Spandam.

He didn't care, as if he was accustomed to being a sycophant. He shamelessly boasted about the people of Wanokuni from beginning to end.

Even Kaido's subordinates were shamelessly praised by him.

Kozuki Hiyori, being relatively young and with less experience in external exchanges for Wanokuni, blushed instantly from being praised, and invited him back to the capital, Flower Capital.

This time, the Marines did not enter through the hidden cave in the waterfall, which is Wanokuni's only safe passage, but rather used the method of the giant carp's eyes.

It was quite troublesome, and there was still some distance to the capital.

They had been on the road for quite some time, and Spandam's flattering words never stopped.

Moreover, they were all different, and it was impressive that he had such a vast vocabulary.

Arriving at the Shogun's Castle in the capital, Spandam finally revealed the purpose of the World Government's delegation.

-- To invite Wanokuni to join the World Government!

Joining the World Government is not just a matter of nominal affiliation, but also comes with a series of rights and obligations.

Trade, communication, taxation, and protection of the kingdom...

In reality, although the World Government is often portrayed as the antagonist, many countries actually want to join the World Government.

Because it has a considerable positive impact on the economy and politics of a country!

Of course, there are also disadvantages, such as having Celestial Dragons above your head.

However, Celestial Dragons, who reside in Mariejois, only occasionally cause trouble for your country, so it's a minor issue.

From a global perspective, there are many benefits to joining the World Government.

So why can't all countries join the World Government?

The reason is simple: joining the World Government requires paying a celestial tribute.

The celestial tribute is ostensibly money given to the Celestial Dragons, but apart from their own expenses, it is also distributed to the Marines as military funding.

That's why the Marines are so passive and have to obey the commands of the Celestial Dragons, and even the Admirals have to act for the sake of the Celestial Dragons.

The amount of celestial tribute is actually quite large. For example, countries like Alabasta, which have a poor economy, often have to allocate thirty percent of their national fiscal revenue as celestial tribute.

...Please give me flowers...

Even Alabasta, with its vast territory and large land area, still...

It's not that other countries don't want to join, but they can't provide such a large amount of wealth as celestial tribute!

Fishman Island, for example, has many fishman slaves owned by the Celestial Dragons, so why did the Fishman Island still join?

Because joining the World Government, even if we exclude the huge celestial tribute, is still beneficial for the country!

Kozuki Hiyori and Sakebi Maru exchanged a glance, a hint of joy flashing in their eyes.

They had long discussed the future of Wano Country and naturally considered joining the World Government.

To establish a country, you must join the World Government!

"Especially now that Wano Country lacks food, we can just receive assistance from the World Government!" Kozuki Hiyori thought to herself, but she remained calm and began to negotiate with Spandine.

However, to everyone's surprise, even though Kozuki Hiyori made some outrageous demands in the treaty, Spandine agreed without hesitation.

This includes, but is not limited to, the upcoming assistance from the World Government, support in establishing a complete diplomatic system for Wano Country, and exemption from celestial tribute for ten years...

These favorable conditions are like putting delicious food right in front of Wano Country.

Of course, it's not that there are no conditions at all.

"As a return for agreeing to these conditions, we would like to ask for the help of Lord Zaraki Kenpachi." Spandine smiled and said softly.

"What kind of help?" Kozuki Hiyori's face instantly changed, despite being impressed by the superior conditions offered by the World Government.

"Please have Mr. Zaraki Kenpachi participate in our next suppression operation, targeting a dangerous individual. Of course, this is for us powerless people. It's nothing for someone like you!"

Spandine boasted, his eyes secretly fixed on Zaraki Kenpachi.

Kaido and Sakebi Maru narrowed their eyes.

"So the World Government is here for him!"

...The mountain.
