Chapter 185: Moria's "Dream of King"
"Hehe~"
"As expected of the Pirate King Roger's shipwright."
Moria, who was hung up, was not angry at all. Instead, he admired Tom's unyielding spirit.
Just now, Moria had a phone call with Tom.
Ask if you need help. If you agree to Moria's request and buy all the shipyards in the Seven Waters together, Moria will rescue Franky. At the same time, he is willing to let Tom serve as the director of the shipyard.
In short, as long as Moria agrees, there will be no problem in saving Franky.
However, people like Tom, who put their own life and death aside, naturally cannot be bought by Moria.
Rightly rejected Moria's request.
Since Moria did not use the encrypted Den Den Mushi during this call, the content of this call was eavesdropped by the spies of the World Government.
And then, it was reported to the Five Elders.
The intelligence department did not dare to be careless about Moria's ambition to annex the Seven Water Cities. After all, they had been blamed by the Five Elders for Crocodile's incident, and this mistake could not be made a second time.
"Build a kingdom?"
After receiving the intelligence from the CP organization, the Five Elders finally figured out Moria's idea.
Moria's purpose of attacking the Seven Water Cities was put aside.
Based on Moria's actions during this period, it can be said that he suddenly changed from an unforgivable villain to a wise and virtuous good man. Such a change was so great that the Five Elders had to be extremely vigilant against Moria.
After all, for these big pirates, the so-called putting down the butcher knife and becoming a Buddha on the spot is simply impossible.
And now, Moria finally exposed his final idea.
This made the Five Elders feel relieved.
I'm not afraid of you having any ideas, I'm afraid you have no ideas and look like you have no desires.
It turns out that becoming a king is Moria's final idea.
Indeed, it is not surprising to have such an idea. On the contrary, there are many people who have such an idea.
After all, the nobles are still very few, and their identities are still very precious.
However, it is the first time in history that a pirate has become a king.
After getting Moria's idea of becoming a king, the Five Elders began to discuss. Combined with Moria's actions during this period, the Five Elders finally confirmed that this information was correct.
During this period of time, Moria has been constantly building his image as a "good man" among the people. At the same time, he has been constantly conducting business cooperation with various countries to deepen relations. Moreover, the Moria Pirates can no longer be called pirates. Whether it is its system, training, or all aspects of life, they are completely carried out in the form of the army.
All of the above behaviors prove Moria's purpose.
This time, Moria wants to take over the Seven Waters City for the shipbuilder resources of the Seven Waters City. After all, the intelligence clearly states, "Build a huge maritime kingdom." To achieve such a goal, a large number of ships are needed. Naturally, Moria will set her sights on the Seven Waters City.
From the perspective of the World Government, it is undoubtedly very beneficial for the government to let Moria form a kingdom and join the World Government. The Five Elders also hope to see such a situation.
However, hope is one thing, and reality is another. Even if the Five Elders think that it is a good thing for Moria to form a kingdom and join the World Government, they will not watch Moria take control of the Seven Waters City.
After all, this is the territory of the World Government, and it will not be controlled by others.
Moria must be beaten, at least, Moria cannot be allowed to get it so easily.
Shortly after Moria ended the call with Tom, that night, Moria received news from Spandam.
This is what Moria wants to achieve. Establishing a kingdom can be said to buy time for himself and strive to develop power.
Although the identity of Shichibukai can be said to be perfect, there are still more or less restrictions. After all, the world government cannot let you expand your power unscrupulously. If it is a kingdom, there will naturally be no so many restrictions.
Whether it is Shichibukai or the king, Moria has only one goal, that is, to continue to develop, make himself stronger, and make the power he controls very powerful.
Of course, the Five Elders will never easily agree to Moria becoming the king, and even obstruct it, but Moria doesn't care. It's okay to keep dragging it. As long as the time comes and he has enough strength, identity and so on are not important.
And now it seems that Moria's goal is very successful. The news sent back by Spandam, who is controlled by the Shadow Technique, is the best proof.
According to Spandam's news, CP0 has replaced him to find the design drawings of Pluto, and his task has become to obstruct Moria's shipyard acquisition plan in the Seven Waters City.
According to Spandam's plan, he would directly purchase the shipyard in the name of the World Government to compete with Moria and leave him no way out.
It must be said that Spandam's brain is very bright. Moria really has no way to deal with such an open conspiracy.
However, if you want to play, play bigger.
Anyway, Moria has already controlled Spandam with the Shadow Technique. Since they are all on the same side, then who wins and who loses doesn't matter?
Moria is now worried about how to start the era of "steam navigation"!
After all, if I, with my little arms and legs, really become the leader, I'm afraid I will die.
Now, let's hand over this task to the World Government!
Steam technology is already something that can be dispensable to the World Government, but it is a revolutionary change for the pirate world.
Let the World Government be its own gravedigger!
Moria handed his initial idea to Spandam, believing that with his own wisdom and the foundation of the World Government, these problems will be perfectly solved.
I can just hide behind and develop quietly.
However, the Five Elders sent CP0 to take over Spandam's work, which made Moria feel that the situation was a little beyond his control.
After all, when he was in the Seven Waters City, he had already secretly had two quasi-generals. Now, the World Government has sent people over, which has caused a lot of trouble for Moria's plan to steal the Pluto design drawings.
He was still too impatient. If the plan was more thorough, or if he waited until the plot began, wouldn't the Pluto design drawings be easy to get?
But time waits for no one, and if he really waits until the plot begins, what's the point?
In short, the arrow is on the string and has to be shot.
Moreover, even if he can't get the Pluto design drawings, the World Government also wants to get them.
As long as the news spreads, the whole world will be crazy about it. By then, even the World Government may not be able to get any benefits.
