Chapter 173: It Feels Better to Curse People!
Even if he bribed the officials, the notice he got only allowed Moria to follow the rules and not to go beyond the rules.
Obviously, if Moria wanted to take unconventional measures, he would be hit by the World Government.
But if he didn't use unconventional measures, how could he integrate the Seven Water Cities in a short time?
Although Moria could achieve his ultimate goal by taking his time, it would be too slow, and Moria didn't want to wait that long.
In any case, Moria had to take down at least a large shipyard so that he could effectively carry out the next step.
But a good cook can't cook without rice. If he waited for a year or two, Moria would naturally have the confidence to do it, but if he wanted to complete it in a short time, Moria really couldn't think of any good way.
If he couldn't do it himself, he could only ask for help, and in this Seven Water Cities, the most powerful force was still the World Government, so the best way was naturally to start from this aspect.
However, in this regard, the World Government may not only not provide any help, but will obstruct behind the scenes. After all, the Seven Waters City was originally the territory of the World Government. Now, Moriah, you said you want to turn it into your sphere of influence. How is this possible?
No matter how stupid the World Government is, it will not do such a stupid thing. Besides, the World Government is not stupid and has made Moria suffer losses many times.
Although it is definitely impossible on the surface, Moriah can use the World Government secretly, such as the Tom incident this time.
The World Government's judicial ship is also coming soon, so Spandam has also started his plan to frame Tom.
The design drawings of the ancient weapon Pluto, no matter who hears this news, this is a shocking thing!
In the next few days, Moriah started a normal inspection plan in the Seven Waters City, visiting the acquired shipyards one by one, inspecting the normal work, and greeting the shipbuilders.
It can be said that Moriah's reputation in the Seven Waters is still very high. After all, it is the time when the Seven Waters is in a trough. Moriah's horror three-masted sailboat renovation plan has brought vitality to the Seven Waters. After all, Tom has not built the sea train yet. This is why Moriah is allowed to expand his power in the Seven Waters.
In the following days, Moriah was normal. He just talked about cooperation and inspected the business. Even the acquisition of the shipyard was stopped.
Until the judicial ship of the World Government came to the Seven Waters.
As one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Moriah listened to the trial of Tom on the side. At the same time, he also saw Tom throw out the sea train plan, which reversed the situation in an instant and became the hero of the Seven Waters.
It has to be said that Tom deserves to be known as the world's number one shipbuilder. The sea train plan is simply an epoch-making feat.
Moriah expressed his support for this matter on the spot, and said that he would help Tom, giving money and people to carry out the sea train plan.
Of course, Moriah also had his own conditions. He had to build a sea train road from the Seven Waters to the Devil's Pass to promote exchanges and cooperation between the two places.
In this way, this trial ended in a very satisfactory process.
For Moriah's unremitting support for him, Tom could certainly see that Moriah must have taken a fancy to his sea train technology. After all, the shipwrights sent by Moriah asked questions and took notes and took photos at any time.
However, Tom did not intend to hide it. After all, the Seven Waters was thanks to Moriah. Not only did it bring huge orders, but also, because of Moriah, the pirates were not as rampant as before, and the Seven Waters could continue to prosper.
The opening of the sea train from the Seven Waters to the Devil's Pass can greatly promote the prosperity of the Seven Waters. Tom had no reason to refuse.
Devil's Pass is the checkpoint that Moria had set up on the waterway of the Magic Triangle some time ago. Because of its horrific architectural style and the death of all pirates who caused trouble, this pass has sunk countless pirate ships, so it is called Devil's Pass by pirates.
Moria just laughed it off after hearing this. Devil's Pass is Devil's Pass! If even this can be called Devil's Pass, then what should the New World be called?
If you can't even bear this, then don't dream of going to the New World.
However, for pirates, this is Devil's Pass, but for civilians and merchants, this is simply a paradise, where they can be free from the harassment of pirates, and even let pirates do things for you.
So, for a while, Moria's Magic Triangle attracted a large number of tourists and many businessmen. At the same time, there are many pirates who stayed because of the mission system, making the Magic Triangle, which has always been very deserted, gradually prosperous.
It can be said that the establishment of this toll gate not only brought income to Moria, but also intercepted many pirates and attracted many people, allowing Moria to gain multiple benefits at one stroke, which can be said to be a huge profit.
The bad reputation among pirates, get out of the way!
The truth is that there is profit.
Of course, more profit will naturally make people jealous. The World Government called and asked Moria to cancel this gate, saying that it affected the freedom of navigation.
Having dealt with the World Government for so long, Moria certainly understands what the World Government is thinking.
But those few days were the time when Moria devoured the shadow and was most affected by it.
After all, this is a kind of mental torture, and pirates are originally some unruly people. Under the influence of their consciousness, Moria has been very irritable these days, which is normal.
As soon as he received the call from the World Government, Moria cursed directly:
"You said it affects the freedom of navigation, where does it affect it? On the contrary, it protects the safety of navigation for everyone. So many people and businessmen are full of praise. Which eye can see it?"
"Are you blind!"
"Moreover, I have taken over many bounty missions on pirates from the Navy. Every month, I have to hand over a large number of pirates to the Navy."
"It's ridiculous for you, the World Government, to do this!"
"You said to cancel it and cancel it. Don't I have face?"
"Okay, since you want to cancel it, then cancel it, give it to me. Look at this!"
"There are many pirates stranded in the Magic Delta. After the checkpoints are closed, you can deal with so many pirates by yourselves!"
"Besides, I was extorted a large sum of money by your World Government a while ago, and my pockets are empty. Now you come again, do you really think I'm easy to bully!"
"I wanted to be a good person, but in the end, your World Government forced me!"
"Is it so difficult to be a good person?"
"Don't force me, even rabbits will bite when they are anxious!"
At this point, Moriah, who was arrogant, hung up the phone directly.
On the other side, the officials of the World Government were constantly thinking in their minds.
Yes! Moriah is a pirate, not a navy or a security officer. It's good enough to do this, and it can't be demanding.
And if they really start fighting, Moriah is not so easy to deal with. If not handled properly, it will cause chaos, so they hurriedly report to the Five Elders.
Here, after cursing, Moria felt refreshed, and even the speed of swallowing shadows increased a lot.
Sure enough, cursing is still more comfortable!
