Chapter 360: Damn Crocodile
"If you are afraid, just ask them to do hard labor. Move these people together, lock them up and count them. When the navy comes, let them receive them together ." Zhang Da also thought of a way to have the best of both worlds.
Ye Yan didn't have any objection, and directly called the flag monsters to come and work. Anyway, everyone would go back to the boat to sleep soon, so there was no need for the flag monsters to watch over them.
"Although it's already night, there should be someone on duty, right?" After leaving the banquet hall, Zhang Da also took out his Den Den Mushi and dialed the sea rescue number.
It turned out that there was, and the naval base that answered the call was somewhat unexpected, it was the Rogue Town Naval Base.
This call is usually connected to the nearest naval base, and the naval base closest to the entrance of the Grand Line seems to be Rogue Town.
However, this matter was obviously not something that the Rogge Town Navy could resolve. After Zhang Da explained the details of the situation, the operator said that he would immediately report it to the headquarters' intelligence department and ask them to dispatch personnel.
Therefore, Zhang Da also emphasized that there were four to five hundred criminals from the Baroque Works Society here, and these people attempted to subvert the regime of the Allied Powers.
The operator was in awe, thinking that they were worthy of being the Amber Tour Group. He would report all of this in detail, but according to his estimation, the navy ship would not arrive until tomorrow evening at the earliest.
"Let's go back to the boat and rest. We will probably have to stay here all day tomorrow." Zhang Da also called his companions to go back and picked up Tom directly.
This guy still didn't understand what was going on. He kept looking back with a confused look on his face. How did an ordinary meal turn into a fight and an arrest?
By the time everyone returned to the boat, Altria had already finished her shower and changed into her little lion pajamas. She tilted her head and gently wiped her hair with a towel, letting the towel slowly absorb the moisture from her hair.
"Welcome back." Altria said, and after waiting for a response, she looked at Zhang Daye with burning eyes, "So many criminals can be exchanged for a lot of rewards, right?"
"I think so." Zhang Da also calculated that the weapons alone would be worth a lot of money, and the gun that had eaten the Dog-Dog Fruit should be worth as much as a famous sword. But Altria's sudden concern for the bounty must have more than a simple purpose.
Zhang Da also tentatively said: "How about having a simple midnight snack to celebrate?"
"Okay!" Altria nodded immediately, and the ahoge that had just been wiped stood up lively.
"Okay, everyone, wash up if you need to, and come to the restaurant if you want to eat, and go to rest if you don't want to eat." Zhang Da also looked at Perona and Wendy, "Especially you, early to bed and early to rise is good for your health, late to bed and late to rise will not make you grow taller."
This sentence was a deadly blow to Wendy. After hearing it, she immediately went to wash up and go to bed.
Only Perona left while muttering something like "black-hearted boss cheating children". She didn't talk back directly because she had already eaten a lot of desserts today and didn't need another one. She was also afraid that Zhang Da would catch her for extra practice.
Ye Yan had eaten and drunk his fill today and had a lot of fun and games, so he didn't wait any longer and climbed directly up to the lookout room. He was still the one to keep watch at night.
The only minor incident that night was that Jackie Chan's clothes were damaged in the battle, but he found that he had no change of clothes.
Among his companions on the boat, the one who was closest to him in height was... Rui Mengmeng, who was two centimeters taller than Jackie Chan. Uncle Long refused to let her wear women's clothes, so in the end he had to ask Tom to modify Zhang Daye's clothes as an emergency measure. As for Ye Yan, that guy didn't have many normal clothes.
…
The next morning, everyone got up and did morning exercises together. The original plan was to jog around the town, but everyone was curious about the mountain not far away that looked like a cactus, so the morning exercises were changed to mountain climbing.
The flag monsters were busy all night. They not only gathered all the agents together, but also found their belongings. Unfortunately, there were not many. Most of them should have been handed over in order to "build an ideal country."
The flag monsters had been busy all night and needed to rest. Ye Yan wanted to sleep a little longer, so Shark Chili decided to stay and guard the ship, so that there would be someone to negotiate with them in case the navy arrived early.
The others jogged as usual, reached the foot of the mountain and then began to climb. When they reached the middle of the mountain, they saw the true face of those "cactus thorns", which were densely packed tombstones.
Zhang Da had known about these tombstones for a long time, so he was not surprised. Perona also had no reaction to this, after all, she grew up among zombies.
Tom was already trembling with fear, holding Zhang Daye's neck and hanging on his chest. He was most afraid of ghosts and gods , and he really disliked the atmosphere of the cemetery.
"So this is a cemetery?" Wendy whispered, "Should we not come here to disturb you?"
"I'm afraid this is not an ordinary cemetery." Maybe it was due to the instinct of an archaeologist, Jackie Chan walked to a tombstone with a serious expression, squatted down and picked up some soil:
"From the soil here, this tombstone was buried not long ago. And from where we can see, the situation looks similar. That is to say, these hundreds of tombstones, or even more tombstones in the distance, were buried at about the same time. What happened to bury so many tombstones in such a short time?"
Xia Lulu thought of something terrible: "The uncle who guards the lighthouse said that this place was occupied by a criminal gang not long ago. And this is clearly a town, but we haven't seen an ordinary person until now."
"I am not aware of any other people besides the ones who attacked us last night," Altria said.
Rui Mengmeng and Wendy's faces turned pale: "That is to say, all the residents of this town..."
Everyone looked at the tombstones all over the mountains, and the answer was obvious. After the agents of the Baroque Works came here, the residents of the small town at the foot of the mountain, as well as ordinary people in several nearby towns, were probably all buried in these mountains.
Wendy covered her mouth, feeling unbelievable: "How could this happen..."
Rui Mengmeng bit her lip: "It's too much, too much..."
Altria's expression was serious. Just because she was used to seeing life and death didn't mean she could ignore life. Such wanton slaughter of innocent civilians...
Jackie Chan said coldly: "Captain, they said yesterday that Baroque Works has another boss, right?"
Zhang Da's face looked a little grim. When he first read the comics, he took it for granted that the tombstones all over the mountains were all pirates killed by the Baroque Works, and he didn't even notice that there were no civilians.
In the past, even if you heard that a town was destroyed, or read in the newspaper that a village was destroyed, with the number of casualties, it was just a string of cold words, far less shocking than the forest of tombstones before your eyes.
A newly destroyed town lay before him. No one knew for whom the bare tombstones on the hill were erected, and no one knew whose bodies were buried in the turned soil on the ground. No one knew how many heroes had died protecting the town, and no one knew how many old, young, women and children were buried here.
Zhang Daye, whose mind was completely blank, heard Jackie Chan asking about the boss of Baroque Workshop and moved his lips:
"Damn Crocodile!"
