Chapter 431: The Daily Intrigues of the 5 Old Stars
Chapter 431 The Five Elders' Daily Intrigues
When the fleet that Gion was in set sail from Marinford and traveled in the opposite direction along the Grand Route in a mighty manner, the entire ocean was caught in a huge whirlpool of public opinion.
As everyone knows, Admiral Momosa has semi-retired from the Marine Headquarters, and his title of admiral was forcibly removed by the exasperated Five Elders long before Lex started the era of his great rise and returned to the world.
However, now the great fleet of the navy, headed by Gion, is flying the flag of Marinford high, and the Chief of Staff of the Navy Headquarters, Tsuru, is also traveling with Gion, and they are rampant on the Grand Line without any scruples.
For a while, the name Taotu·Gion became the most searched topic in Qinghai, and the deeper information was dug out by those who were interested.
It seems that Leon Lex and the World Government have made concessions to each other and their relationship has eased.
However, these deeper-level games are not directly relevant to most people in the world. Everyone just likes to watch the fun and join in the fun but does not like to get involved in trouble. That's all.
……
Between powers——
"Gion left on the fleet of the Navy Headquarters, and Tsuru went with him. The reason given by Sengoku was that he was going to the South Sea to discuss cooperation matters."
Mercury revealed the truth this time.
However, this kind of deceptive lies is obviously not the truth. The truth is often hidden beneath appearances. It depends on whether you can see through the appearances and the truth.
"It's not a collaboration. Maybe it's a private matter between them. It shouldn't be a big deal. If it's a business matter, it wouldn't be so loud. It's just to give He a reason to leave the headquarters."
Saturn was the first to express his opinion. After the legendary tough king Old Mars and the legendary smart Jupiter died in battle one after another, Old Saturn became the mainstay of the world's highest power today.
After all, the remaining few can't be said to be ugly, but they can also be described as traitors.
Mercury nodded when he heard this, and then looked at Jialin Sheng and Old Venus, wanting to hear the traitor's opinion:
"What does Saint Garin think?"
Feigaland Galinsheng, with his legs crossed high and his eyes narrowed, did not seem anxious or impatient after hearing that he was honorably named, and replied calmly:
"There are always some things on the sea that we cannot fully understand. Since this matter does not directly affect our interests, let's just let it go."
Mercury smiled with a fake smile:
"Haha, let it be. Jialin Sheng is really wise. He is worthy of being the world's highest power with young and promising talents."
Go with the flow, young and promising, these two contradictory words are obviously not suitable to describe a person at the same time. This is Mercury's mockery of Galin Sheng.
It is impossible to get Jialinsheng to give some constructive suggestions. Who can we count on such a traitor?
Moreover, he was a legendary traitor king like Garin Sheng who had stabbed the Holy Land twice.
Mercury moved his contemptuous gaze away from Galin Sheng and turned to look at Venus.
This was also a legendary traitor known to the Holy Land. He was the one who was said to be closest to Lex among the Five Elders. It was unknown when such a rumor first spread in the Holy Land.
It is said that Lord Venus is actually Leon Lex's spokesperson in the Holy Land, and is the world's highest authority supported by Lex within the Five Elder Stars.
Although such rumors were only quietly circulated within the Holy Land, they were hard to avoid being heard, and the other Five Elder Stars had also heard about them to some extent.
Venus has always scoffed at these unfounded doubts.
He considered himself to be the most loyal person to Lord Im in the Holy Land, but loyalty did not mean stupidity. He was by no means a reckless man like old Mars, nor was he Jupiter, who claimed to be wise but was actually as stupid as a pig.
He is a unique Venus, with his own life creed and a set of unique rules of conduct.
Noticing Mercury's silent gaze, Venus also coughed lightly:
"Ahem, I do know a thing or two about Gion's Grand Line cruise."
Mercury immediately caught the unusualness in Venus's words and asked:
"Do you know the inside story?"
Venus looked a little unhappy. This Mercury had always claimed to be the leader of the Five Elders and the most loyal believer of Lord Yimu, but in fact he was just a fool with no brains. Venus held the First Generation of Kitetsu in his arms and explained calmly:
"I don't know the inside story, I just have some guesses. What you don't know is that in two days, it will be Gion's birthday. As Gion's sworn sister, Tsuru naturally has a reason to attend Gion's birthday party, but as the core of the headquarters, Tsuru cannot leave his post without permission, so he made an excuse."
After hearing Venus' explanation, Mercury immediately understood.
This is closer to the truth.
But... why does Venus know Gion's birthday and even the time so clearly? ! ~
Mercury looked unhappy and started to question the culprit:
"I see. I was wondering what was going on. Or maybe Saint Izambaron was very insightful. But...why do you know so much about Gion's birthday? Did Leon Lex invite you?"
In Mercury's opinion, even if Leon Lex really had some unclear relationship with old Venus, he would not directly invite Venus who was far away in the Holy Land to attend Gion's birthday. The last question he asked Venus was just a kind of irony to Venus.
But who would have thought that Venus's answer the next moment would leave Mercury dumbfounded on the spot.
"Invite? Saint Vauchuli, please give me your opinion. Lex did invite me and even gave me a reason why I had to go. I was troubled recently and didn't know how to tell you about this. I never thought Saint Vauchuli was so prophetic and had already guessed it. I really admire you."
!!! ~
At this moment, not only Mercury, but also old Saturn was a little confused on the spot, not buddy~
Lex really invited you to Gion's birthday party?! ~
He didn’t even invite the legendary traitor king, Garin Sheng. The entire holy land, the huge Marijoa, and the nineteen Celestial Dragon families only invited you, right?
Six hundred and sixty-six, I don’t even want to act anymore~
You might as well reveal your name and say that you really are the spokesperson supported by Lex within the Five Elders as rumored in the Holy Land. Maybe everyone will feel better this way.
At this moment, even Jialin Sheng couldn't stand it anymore. He spoke up:
"Saint Izambaron, it has not even been a year since the last war, the Holy Land is still licking its wounds, and the World Government hates Lex to the core. Isn't it a bit inappropriate for you to attend the banquet now?"
Eight years ago, when Rex hosted the Pentles World Expo, he invited Venus as a special guest to attend the banquet in the New World. However, at that time, Rex and the Holy Land were still in an ambiguous period. The two sides used and deceived each other, so it was understandable that they did some superficial work.
However, now Lex has already overturned the table, and he and the Holy Land are ready to wipe you out sooner or later. If you attend Lex's banquet now, I'm afraid it's not just a banquet, but a surrender to the enemy, right? ~
Of course, Jialin Sheng did not say these truths directly, but asked them in a more tactful way. The other four highest powers in the world were waiting for Venus's answer.
Venus was stared at by several people, but she did not feel uncomfortable at all. She remained calm, holding the First Generation Kitetsu, and said slowly:
"Lex wants his son Leon Oleini to meet Lord Yim, and Lord Yim agrees. This time I am going to the banquet to escort Oleini to the Holy Land to meet Lord Yim. I don't think you would want Lex to come to the Holy Land in person."
This reason is full of weight and rationality.
This involves Lord Im, Lex, and Oleini. If Venus doesn't go to escort Oleini personally, then I'm afraid Lex will have to come in person.
But now, once Lex stood in the holy land, even if he just stood there quietly, it would be enough to scare 99% of the people in the holy land to death.
So Venus naturally had to take the initiative and take on the responsibility of escorting Oleini.
Once this reason came out, even if everyone had doubts in their hearts, it was inconvenient to continue asking questions.
Mercury deadpanned:
"In this case, I hope you can complete your duties and not cause any unnecessary trouble."
