One Piece: Kaido the Beast Playing House

Chapter 736: Flower King's Palace

"What happened? What happened?"

In the palace of the capital of Flower Country, King Ramen was anxiously asking his ministers. He was indeed capable, but he was definitely not capable of being the king of a country. If his elder brother had not died of illness, he would never have been the king. As a result, he had just ascended the throne for a few days, and such a big thing happened.

"Your Highness, the situation is still unclear. Six of the Eight Treasures Navy are clearly on our side. Only the Second Treasure Navy and the Eight Treasures Navy are a little uncertain. But please rest assured, even if these two navies really surrender to that villain, victory will definitely be ours."

Faced with Ramen's question, the courtiers in the palace looked at each other, and finally an old minister with a gray beard came out and said.

"My dear, it's not that I don't trust you, but this thief who I don't know where he came from actually claimed that he was the son of the remnant of the previous dynasty. Now people are panicking, and the Ministry of Industry is unable to produce weapons for a while because of the previous turmoil. What can we do if this continues?" Ramen also knew that he still had the advantage in numbers, but sometimes things were not calculated that way. Although he was not a qualified emperor, he was also very clear that his family's rise to power was not glorious. It could be said that they stole the country in real life. It was completely pushed to the top by the World Government in secret. If there was no help from the World Government, they would never be able to rise to the top. So when they came to power, they killed the royal family of the previous dynasty and their followers. Even the people who mentioned the previous dynasty were all sentenced to death. However, although these methods allowed them to temporarily secure the throne, they also indirectly made them unpopular. This is why the Babao Navy was established like pirates, or pirates, because they did not rise to power normally and did not have a sufficient foundation. They could only win over these soldiers as much as possible and give them great power. In addition, they left all the looted property to themselves, except for a small part given to the court. This also led to the fact that the Babao Navy was nominally affiliated with the court of the Kingdom of Flowers, but in fact, they were completely Jiedushi, and their power was terrifying.

"Your Highness, don't worry. Although those thieves are powerful on the surface, they actually have no foundation, only dozens of ships, no supplies, and no reinforcements. We can completely drag them to death!"

At this time, another guy with a hairstyle very similar to Ramen came out of the team of courtiers in a suit of iron armor and said. This person is Ramen's cousin and the current leader of the King's Army of the Kingdom of Flowers - Chaomian.

"Yes, Brother Chaomian is right, it makes sense. Indeed, those traitors have no backup supplies, we just need to hold them back!"

Ramen was overjoyed when he heard Chaomian's words. That's right! Those guys only have a few boats. If they hold on, they will starve to death in less than half a year. As long as they leave, the crisis will be solved, and then I can ask the World Government for help.

"I dare not. This is an idea that Your Highness has had in his mind for a long time. I just helped to say it out."

Chaomian's eyes flashed with a gleam, but he did not show any inappropriateness on the surface. After bowing, he returned to the ranks of courtiers. However, from the eyes of the people around him, he knew that his goal had been achieved. If the king Ramen's family can sit, then why can't Chaomian's family sit? As long as this incident is over, everyone will know that it was the strategy proposed by Chaomian that won this battle. At that time, he will force the palace with a big trend, and this country will definitely fall into his hands!

"No, no, no, meritorious service deserves reward, but I have not decided what reward to give for the time being. Besides, it is not appropriate to give reward when the enemy is at hand. I will definitely reward my brother after the thieves retreat. Then, all the nobles, follow the strategy of Chaomian brother and do not stop the wooing of Erbao Navy and Babao Navy. At the same time, strengthen the strategy of closing the country. Except for Babao Navy, no one can go to sea! Let those traitors starve to death on the sea!"

Ramen tried to put on a winning attitude as much as possible and said.

"Your Highness, I have something to say but I don't know if I should say it or not."

At this time, an old minister came out and said.

"My dear minister, you can say it."

If Ramen has any merit, it is that he listens to advice. He knows that he is not a qualified leader, so he always respects what others say, especially those old ministers.

"That's right, Your Highness. Although General Chaomian's strategy is indeed very good, we cannot help but prevent the other party from jumping off the wall in desperation. In my opinion, we still cannot stop purchasing weapons in the underground world. We have too few weapons now, and the weapons in the Babao Navy will not be willing to support us, so we must be prepared." After the old minister finished speaking, he looked at Ramen, hoping to give an answer, but before Ramen said anything, another minister was not happy and walked out to say. "Your Highness, General Chaomian's strategy is enough for us to survive this crisis. The Ministry of Revenue does not have enough Bailey. The reason why we failed to purchase weapons in the underground world several times before was because those guys who forget their principles for the sake of profit are ready to blackmail us. If we continue to purchase weapons, I am afraid that people's livelihood will be unstable!" "Nonsense! My country of flowers is vast and rich! There are mountains of gold and silver! Did your Ministry of Revenue take kickbacks!" Before the minister of the Ministry of Revenue finished speaking, the chief minister of the Ministry of War on the other side came out and shouted.

"Stop talking nonsense! All our officials in the Ministry of Revenue are honest and dedicated to their duties! How can I be slandered by you!"

When the Minister of Household Affairs heard what the head of the Ministry of War said, he immediately said angrily.

"Am I talking nonsense? Huh! Who doesn't know that all the officials in your Ministry of Revenue are full of fat heads! Don't say anything, just say it to yourself, the minister in charge. Can you see your feet when you lower your head now? Your Highness, I, the Ministry of War, are in charge of weapons. Manufacturing, what happened back then is indeed the responsibility of our Ministry of War, but now that the country is in crisis, soldiers cannot be without armor. Your Highness, please put the country and the country first and never stop purchasing weapons!"

The head of the Ministry of War mocked a few times, then turned to face Ramen and said.

"Your Highness! Don't listen to what this reckless man says! There is really no Bailey left in the Ministry of Finance! If you don't believe it, your Highness can go to the treasury to see for yourself. At the moment, the treasury is really full of gold except for the last bit of gold in the bottom of the box to prevent problems. I can’t get any money out, and this year’s annual gift is a problem!”

The Minister of Household Affairs also said to the ramen.

"Sour! Who do you think is reckless!"

The head of the Ministry of War was a soldier, and he could not urinate in the same pot as other civil servants. Moreover, he hated being called a foolhardy man, so he immediately pointed angrily at the head of the Ministry of Household.

"I'm talking about you! The money we used to buy things in the underground world was heavenly gold! You know what the money is used for! Don't you still want to act rashly! Now that there is a better solution, heavenly gold must not be touched Yes! Don’t forget! The reason why we are in this situation now is because the world government was dissatisfied with us because we did not pay enough money last year, so there is no navy to come to our aid. Do you want to continue? Do you know what a sin it is to completely lose your status as a member of the World Government?"

After all, the Minister in charge of the Ministry of Household Affairs is a scholar. In terms of military force, he is inferior to the Minister in charge of the Ministry of War. However, as the saying goes, civil servants kill people with their mouths. In just a few words, he put a big label on the Minister in charge of the Ministry of War. The minister in charge of the Ministry of War pointed at him and could not say a word.

"You! You you!"

"Okay! Stop arguing! This is the court! This is not a place for you to quarrel!"

At this time, Chow Mian came out and shouted. After all, Chow Mian was a relative of the emperor, and he was also a person with military power. After he said a word, the Ministry of Revenue and the Ministry of War naturally could not say anything more.

"Your Highness, in my opinion, what the Minister of Household Affairs and the Minister of War have said is reasonable. How about taking two measures at the same time and continuing to buy in the underground world, but if there is no suitable price, never make a move?"

Chow Mein said to Ramen.

"This is a wonderful plan. Chow Mian is indeed my great minister. Just do as General Chow Mian said and let the court go."

After Ramen said this, he turned around and left. This court meeting really made him feel painful and happy. Although he had countermeasures for the current situation, the quarrel between these people really gave Ramen a huge headache. It's better to go back to the harem and take a rest.
