Pirate: I'm just slacking off, do you really think I'm a noob?

Long grabbed the bald man's shoulder and said:

"I'm very sorry. Swole didn't mean to laugh at you just now. If you think it's inappropriate, I will ask him to apologize to you."

"But if you do it again, I won't be polite."

Long looked at the bald man who wanted to resist and said seriously.

Although Crow's devil fruit ability is a bit tricky, Long has experienced many battles when he was in the navy.

If he hadn't held back just now, the bald man might have been captured by him long ago.

The bald man felt the pressure from Long and naturally didn't resist.

"My name is Crow."

The bald man said his name and gestured to Long.

"My name is Monkey D. Long."

Long said easily. He had some good feelings for the person in front of him because he felt that they were the same kind of people.

"I'm sorry for the rudeness just now, Mr. Crow. I'm Swole."

Sswole bowed to Crow embarrassedly and apologized.

"Find a hidden space. This place has attracted other people's attention."

The sound of the battle just now has made some miners in the mine look over here.

"Come with me."

The crow gestured to everyone, and then walked towards another mine.

The mines here are very winding, and many of them are not recorded on the route map of the mines.

But the crow seemed to be familiar with the route, as if he had been to these mines many times.

Finally, after following the crow for ten minutes, several people saw a small house deep in the mine.

"Come in and chat, Mr. Long."

The crow took the initiative to invite, and Long followed him in without doubt.

The small wooden house was crowded with five strong men.

Long and Swoll of the Self-Guard Army, as well as Crow and two cadres of the Miners' Association.

"Okay, this place is safer, you can talk with confidence."

The crow still said in a low voice.

"My name is Monkey D. Long, the leader of the Self-Guard Army, and I traveled all the way from the East China Sea."

"Our organization is to make those people oppressed by the World Government and the World Nobles stand up."

"Self-Guard Army?"

The crow was a little surprised by the name.

After Long briefly described it to Crow, Crow nodded and said:

"It's an interesting idea."

"It's your turn."

Long looked at the several people from the Miners' Association in front of him.

"We are workers from the steel factory and members of the Miners' Association."

"The reason we came here is because you just joined in the past few days and started to inquire about various news. Naturally, we have to come and take a look."

"Steel factory?"

Long showed a trace of doubt on his face. He didn't know about the steel factory.

Coal and Iron City is divided into two parts. One part is the coal mining area responsible for mining coal resources, and the other part is the steel factory specializing in smelting iron ore.

Long had heard of the steel factory mentioned by some people, but due to the obstruction of the high wall in the middle, the workers on both sides were actually unable to contact each other.

"No, if you are really workers from the steel factory as you said, how did you get here?"

"Because according to the information I have inquired in the past few days, the two areas are not interconnected."

Long frowned and asked this question.

"You can't communicate with each other, but in fact, there are still many places where the two parts are connected. For example, the supervisors in the coal mines are actually workers in the steel factory."

"What? The supervisors in the coal mines are actually workers in the steel factory?"

Long was very surprised.

"Yes, the steel factory selects three or four hundred workers every week to work as supervisors in the coal mines. This is a good thing. The remuneration is similar to that of the steel factory, but basically no effort is required."

The crow explained to Long the connection between the coal mines and the steel factory.

"Who are the supervisors of your steel factory?"

Long asked again.

"The supervisors of our steel factory are basically natives from the four major port cities, and only a few are lifelong supervisors."

After the crow finished speaking, Long fell into deep thought.

He didn't know whether it was the idea of ​​the nobles of the Kingdom of Eryokabu or the idea of ​​the World Government.

But there is no doubt that this divisive method was used very well.

Compared with the workers in the coal mines, the workers in the steel factory are treated better and have more abundant food.

Let the workers from the steel factory come to the coal mining area as supervisors. The long-term working environment will cause the people in the coal mining area and the supervisors from the steel mining area to confront each other.

This is the root cause of the division of the two groups that are most likely to unite.

Let people living in other parts of the kingdom be supervisors, which further divides the connection between the workers and the masses.

Add to that the tall and big city walls and thousands of soldiers holding long guns and short cannons.

Reduce the scale and frequency of the uprising as much as possible.

"But a new question has arisen. You should not come here as a supervisor."

"If I were the one who formulated this plan, I would definitely restrict the freedom of entry and exit of the steel factory workers."

"Otherwise, this plan based on the lack of information exchange between the groups will fail."

The dragon showed a very interested smile and looked at the crow, and continued:

"Since it is a plan based on this theory, it is necessary to control the time of the supervisor's coming and going. As far as I know, the supervisor's time in the morning and evening is fixed. All supervisors must leave after this time."

"At this time, theoretically there shouldn't be any supervisors in the coal mine."

Long's words made Crow sweat coldly.

He didn't expect that the tall man in front of him could make so many inferences with just a few words.

The most important thing is that these inferences are very close to reality.

"It seems that Mr. Crow is still reluctant to believe us."

Swoll shrugged and said.

Crow also calmed down and said to Long and Swol:

"No way. I have too much on my shoulders. Before we establish complete trust, I can't guarantee whether you are members of the CP organization."

Long laughed heartily:

"Hahahaha, in the conversation just now, I have come to the conclusion that you are the leader of the Miners' Association, and your purpose is to launch a people's uprising."

"If we are really from the World Government, we would have arrested you for this alone."

Crow found it difficult to understand why the man named Long in front of him could have such a high IQ.

In a sense, if Long is a member of the World Government, then the workers' uprising in the Kingdom of Eryokabu is like a joke in his eyes.

He can easily find the key figures of the uprising and have the strength to get rid of them in one fell swoop.

Seeing that Long was so wise, Crow was shocked at first, and then said with a complicated expression:

"Mr. Long, your words are very touching to me. But I carry the hopes of too many people, so I can't fully trust you for the time being."

"I hope you can understand my approach. I'm very sorry."
