Chapter 987: Sorry, but the president asked me to do this!
The end of 1520 in the Haiyuan calendar.
It has been almost half a year since Kira and others came to this world. All the wizards who came to this world are now living in an orderly manner in the Fairy Kingdom.
Ever since the signpost text and ancient characters were exposed, the pirates' drama has been changing almost every two or three days, but until now, there has been no confirmation that the last piece of signpost text is in Red Hair's hands, on the island of Elbaf.
The giants are also divided into different tribes and kingdoms. These large and small tribes and kingdoms together have more than 8,000 warriors of appropriate age. Although there are occasional disagreements between the tribes, they maintain a consistent attitude towards the outside world.
All outsiders who want to go to the island, whether they are pirates, navy, revolutionary army or agents of the World Government, will be rejected by all the Titans if they cannot get their approval.
It is worth mentioning that these giants have excellent craftsmanship and their ability in forging weapons, armor and other combat equipment is even better than that of Wano Country. There are even rumors that it is a technology given to them by gods from ancient times.
Its huge size, well-equipped, fighting maniacs, long lifespan and large number of people make Elbaf the most solid fortress in the world today.
Because of the rumor that "the last piece of text is above Elbaf", Elbaf is now very exclusive, and basically no one can get close except for the old friend Red Hair.
On the other side, the Revolutionary Army found Kira.
In recent months, thanks to the crop ripening machine developed by Vegapunk, the Fairy Kingdom has become the world's number one grain producer and exporter. With the development of maritime transportation, the pressure on many countries that were originally struggling to survive has been greatly reduced. In addition, the kingdom welcomes everyone and everyone can settle down, making its global influence far ahead of other countries.
The Revolutionary Army had mixed feelings about the Fairy Kingdom's actions.
The good news is that those who originally had no hope of survival can finally survive; the bad news is that, as a result, no one will think of rebelling against the world government anymore.
Kira's answer to this is -
"Since you can't live in your original kingdom, then come live in our Fairy Kingdom!"
"Other countries cannot afford to pay the Heavenly Gold and cannot defeat pirates, but the Fairy Kingdom has a vast territory, abundant food, low taxes, a good economy, convenient transportation, and a wide variety of goods, so pirates dare not invade. If they feel that the journey is too far to come, we will regularly send people to various parts of the world to recruit people, and space magic will be used to transport them for free."
"When the Fairy Kingdom has more than 50% of the world's civilians, we ourselves will be the World Government! And the current World Government will be a group of commanders without troops!!"
"Maybe even less than 50% of the world's population will be killed. Now those high-ranking officials of the World Government and those Celestial Dragons will starve to death first!!"
The revolutionary army that came to the door was speechless and then ruthlessly driven out by Kira.
They didn't even dare to take action within the Fairy Kingdom, because everyone knew that this was the territory of the Fairy Guild, and if they took action against the people of the Fairy Guild, they would have to endure the revenge of all the members of the guild!
An organization that is too large will certainly have a mixed bag of good and bad people, so Kira appointed some powerful and just people, or people who can be controlled, as the "mayors" of various cities, including: the former admiral "Aokiji" Kuzan who resigned from the navy and defected, the "blind old man" Issho who took the initiative to defect one day, and the "black-armed" Zephyr who was dissatisfied with the second generation of Shichibukai...
These mayors are directly responsible for the areas and subordinates under their jurisdiction, and Kira will also go on "incognito visits" in disguise from time to time. Once he finds any bad apples that damage the image of the organization and go against the purpose, he will immediately beat them up and kick them out of the guild to serve as a warning to others.
Over time, there were no more villains who dared to bully the weak.
Of course, the peace of the Fairy Kingdom is also closely related to Vegapunk's development of scientific research and technology. After all, science and technology are the primary productive forces, productive forces determine production relations, and the economic base determines the superstructure...
Thus, after the problem of food and clothing was solved, a system that was obviously more perfect and more acceptable than the "World Government" was born in the Fairy Kingdom.
…
If you look from above, you will find that the Fairy Kingdom is made up of cities, pieced together by bridges or narrow land, and each city has a huge building with a numerical sequence as a mark, just like the Sabaody Archipelago.
In the process of integrating other islands into the Fairy Kingdom, since some islands are relatively large in area, Kira will appropriately divide them into two or more cities for the convenience of management. Therefore, up to now, the city numbering of the Fairy Kingdom has reached 187.
Among these cities, several are very special.
One of them is Eggman City managed by Vegapunk. The technology here is epoch-makingly different from that of other cities. It was discovered and restored by Vegapunk from ancient ruins, but most of it is not yet popularized to the entire population.
In order to cater to Kira's requirements, many projects have been suspended. Now he is no longer researching high-end technology, but technology that benefits the people.
The other is Cake City, which was originally called Cake Island. Its current mayor is Irene, and most of the wizards of "Fairy Tail" live here.
In order to remember his youth that has never passed away, Kira specially remodeled Cake City to look like Magnolia, with similar streets, churches, orphanages, playgrounds, shops, taverns... every corner is designed to be almost the same as Magnolia.
But compared to life here, everyone still misses the old days more.
Especially after Kira built Natsu's thatched cottage and Lucy's rental house in front of them, everyone wanted to go back even more eagerly - they didn't know why they wanted to go back so much, they would have to pay rent to live in a house when they go back, but here they can live for free, isn't that good?
On this day, under the pressure of the wizards, Kira had no choice but to tell everyone the truth.
" Everyone , I'm very sorry, there's something I've been hiding from you for a long time!"
"Actually... I already have a way to get back to Ascalante!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the originally noisy tavern immediately became quiet. Everyone widened their eyes and looked at Kira in disbelief, as if they wanted to eat him alive.
"What did you just say?!"
Kira lowered his head and drank juice without saying anything, looking very guilty.
"Say that to me again, you bastard!!"
Laxus, who had the most bad temper, was the first to rush up, rolled up his sleeves, and looked like he was going to have a big fight. "You just said that you obviously have a way to go back, but you have been pretending to be helpless against us all this time?!"
"Calm down, Laxus! I know you must want to go home now, hug the president and tell him how much you miss him, but I think I can explain this matter..."
"Stop talking so much!! Who wants to do something that disgusting?!"
"Kira, you should give us an explanation!!"
"That's right... since there is a way to go back, why should we stay here?!"
"Just shut up. You drink wine every day, flirt with pretty girls, and even asked a girl from the fur tribe for her phone bug number yesterday. Now you have the nerve to ask why?"
"Great! Now... no! We'll go back the day after tomorrow... uh... a week later! During this time, I'm going to buy some more souvenirs!"
"By the way, let's bring some souvenirs to the first generation..."
Knowing that there was a way to go back, everyone in the tavern couldn't sit still. After being here for half a year, they missed Magnolia terribly and wanted to go back to their own home right now.
"Everyone listen to me, once we go back, we can never come back here again!"
"Ah, this..." Everyone suddenly fell silent. They had stayed here for half a year, and when they were told that they had to leave and never come back, they were somewhat reluctant to let go.
"But Ascalante still has the president waiting for us!"
"That's right! Ascalante, Fiore Kingdom, Magnolia, Fairy Tail, that's our home!!"
"We have been here for almost half a year, and we don't know how long Ascalante has been there! If the speed of time in the two worlds is too different, maybe by the time we return, the president will have already..."
"Don't say unlucky things! The president's magic power is so high, he must be very long-lived. I think he can at least live to the age of Volod-senpai!!"
After a discussion, everyone turned their attention to Kira.
But Kira's next words left them stunned.
"As for the president, you don't have to worry. In fact, he came here a long time ago, but he has been enjoying himself somewhere and has not contacted any of you except me. He asked me not to tell you that there is a way to leave here."
“…Huh?”
"What did you just...say??!"
They had never imagined that the person who betrayed them would be the president they loved, trusted and missed the most? ! !
We were so worried about him, afraid that he would grow old alone without anyone to take care of him, but he had already come here?! He was still enjoying himself secretly?! He still refused to tell us his whereabouts?! He even asked Kira to hide the way back??!
Sorry, we were too sentimental!
"You better explain it to me!!"
Laxus's eyes and tone became even more hostile than before, but this time Kira keenly sensed that this hostility was not directed at him.
It's just like a poor child complaining that his grandfather doesn't love him~
"Ah~ I really can't do anything with you guys..."
Kira almost laughed out loud in his heart, but he pretended to be helpless on his face and sighed heavily in front of everyone: "Well, the truth is this..."
