Pirates: Your Emperor is Back!

"You lost, let's play again?"

Rowan rearranged his pieces, then rubbed his shoulders, took off his eagle-shaped helmet, and put it aside.

Everyone finally had the opportunity to observe Rowan's true face in a relatively stable environment.

It was indeed a face that was exactly the same as in the records.

A firm and angular face, a peaceful smile, and sharp eagle-like eyes.

Indeed, it lives up to the almost exaggerated praise in the history books!

But at this time, everyone obviously cares more about what Rowan just said—

"The meaning of the name Ryan Rowan is far beyond your imagination."

Crocodile frowned, thoughtfully.

Cobra asked directly, "Lord Ancestor, what are your plans?"

Rowan touched his chin, dropped the first piece of the new chess game, and said with a smile:

"Dragon people are very troublesome things. The reason people fear them is not the dragon people themselves, but the world government behind them."

"Therefore, whether it is to conflict with them or kill them directly, there will be no less trouble in the future."

"But ah, Cobra, I'll teach you one thing—"

Rowan said slowly:

"Dead, there are only two possibilities. Either it is very useful, or it is completely useless."

"If that Tianlong person died here, he would be the second kind of useless person."

"But living people can always be somewhere between useful and useless, so there is a lot to do."

As soon as these words came out, the other three people present fell into contemplation.

Weiwei scratched her head. He was still young and couldn't understand Rowan's words very well. He just felt that he didn't understand much, but it seemed to make sense.

Crocodile curled his lips in disdain. As a pirate, he did not fully agree with Rowan's approach.

Replay the situation at that time.

If Rowan is turned into Crocodile, and he must save people from the muzzle of the dragon, Crocodile may choose to secretly use the gravel to fly the lead bullet, and then stab the rescued in a non-lethal location. A wound came out.

Afterwards, he threw the two of them down together, creating the illusion of being killed, to appease the Tianlong people.

In this way, it is the least noticeable and the most stable.

But Rowan's approach was obviously a little too flamboyant, and Crocodile was more sure of his previous feelings because of this—

What an unpleasantly conceited old monster!

As for Cobra, after thinking for a while, he probably understood Rowan's thoughts.

"Lord Ancestor, you don't plan to hide your resurrection... no, rebirth... no, awakening... not right..."

Cobra said several adjectives one after another.

Rowan waved his hand helplessly, "Just wake up."

Cobra then continued:

"Master Ancestor, don't you plan to hide the news of your awakening from the World Government?"

Rowan raised his eyebrows, "Why hide it?"

"Because the current world government... has changed."

Cobra has participated in many world conferences, so he has a good understanding of the world government and the thoughts of each member country.

"The primary purpose of the world government must be to eliminate the unstable factors that may threaten the rule of the world government, rather than to accept an 'ancient man' who has just awakened."

Rowan grinned.

"Indeed, the world government will definitely try to do this, but if this unsettling factor cannot be eliminated, they will definitely try to calm him down."

Cobra frowned slightly, puzzled.

Rowan continued to explain: "In the past, there were many countries that signed a permanent non-aggression pact with the emperor of the Alabasta Empire—that is, me, either voluntarily or by force."

"Um?"

Cobra was stunned, guessing that Rowan was trying to use a covenant to restrict the actions of the World Government.

However, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, does that really work?

Crocodile was even more straightforward, shook his head and smiled and said, "Hey, don't you think that the World Government is a group of good gentlemen who abide by the covenant?"

"of course not."

Rowan shook his head with a smile, and corrected: "They are a bunch of bad gentlemen who are very good at 'using' covenants."

"Pfft!"

Vivi was amused by Rowan's statement, and both Crocodile and Cobra seemed to have thought of something.

"That Heavenly Dragon will bring my news back to the Holy Land Mary Joa, and of course the World Government will not easily accept a person who died once 800 years ago."

Rowan's fingers swayed slightly, and a chess piece flipped back and forth in his palm.

"Therefore, they will choose to try first."

"The result of the temptation will determine whether the covenant is a waste of paper or will continue to take effect."

After the words fell, the pupils of Cobra and Crocodile were trembling slightly.

They didn't expect that in a short period of contact, Rowan could actually count on this step!

Is this the legendary emperor who led an army of iron cavalry across the world 800 years ago?

Cobra paused for a while, and finally said with bitterness and helplessness, "Master Ancestor, when are you going to re-enthrone?"

As soon as these words came out, it was Rowan who was suspicious.

He was a little surprised and said, "What is the enthronement?"

Cobra thought that Rowan was testing himself, so he answered honestly: "After you died in battle, the ancestor Neferutari was crowned as a king according to your arrangement, and then the empire was changed to a kingdom."

"Now you are resurrected... You are awake. According to the agreement, the country of Alabasta should still belong to you."

Speaking of which, Cobra looked a little reluctant.

He is not reluctant to take the throne, but to his people.

In the end, Cobra bowed his head and asked:

"I hope you can treat this country kindly!"

But contrary to everyone's expectations, Rowan waved his hands again and again, "No, no, you are the king of the kingdom. It's business as usual."

Cobra was a little surprised, even Crocodile couldn't help but be curious. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com

"why?"

"I can't handle the internal affairs!"

Rowan scratched his head and smiled helplessly: "That's how it was back then. My main external affairs were Neferutari to help with domestic affairs, so I was relieved to hand over the throne to him."

"But..." Cobra wanted to say something else.

Rowan understands that the king in front of him has been uneasy about the Alabasta Empire being changed into a kingdom.

He was worried that the emperor of his empire would be dissatisfied with this, and then he was furious.

Rowan's son fell, and he won another game of chess.

He patted Cobra on the shoulder, got up and said with a smile:

"What Neferutari does is just a difference in concept, there is no right or wrong."

"besides-"

"I am the emperor of the empire, not the king, and I don't want to be a king."

Cobra pondered the Rowan words.

After a moment of silence, he asked, "Lord Ancestor, what are we going to do next?"

"Wait."

Rowan smiled and replied, "Wait until the world government sends someone to test it, and then let the world government take the initiative to 'remember' the covenant."

…

How long will it take?

Luo Wen estimated that it would take at least three to five days, including the time for communication and travel.

But on the second day, Cobra suddenly received a report from the port town of Yaruja.

He also had the report handed over to Rowan.

The content of the report was something that Rowan never expected.

There are indeed outsiders who have come to Alabasta, but they are not from the World Government.

It was a refuge ship full of refugees—

Murloc refugees.
