Familiar Faces Emerging One After Another
After casually mentioning this San Juan Wolf, Ortolan continued watching.
Article 3: A rebellion has broken out in the Romerik Kingdom within the jurisdiction of the G-12 Marine Base in the New World.
Former national Army Commander Avalo Pizarro launched an armed coup, beheaded the country's king, and declared his rule over the Romerik Kingdom.
It's actually quite normal that things have come to this point, because the Romerik Kingdom is not Affiliated Nation of the World Government, so the World Government will not guarantee the rights and interests of the royal family of that country, and no one will care if something happens.
Such countries are prone to rebellions.
After Pizarro came to power, he issued a series of tyrannical decrees, which led to a deterioration of the domestic environment and widespread suffering among the people. He was also known by the people as the 'Evil King'.
However, this step actually has nothing to do with the World Government or the Marines, such as Ortolan.
Until the G-12 Marines fleet headed to the Romerik Kingdom for resupply, Pizarro, for reasons unknown, detained the G-12 Marines fleet in the port, on the grounds that he suspected the G-12 Marines of secretly helping former royal members evacuate the Romerik Kingdom.
When Ortolan saw this place, he was quite surprised.
How dare this guy?
You should know that when he was the base commander, the various kingdoms within the G-5 jurisdiction treated the G-5 Marines like royalty, afraid that if they offended them, it would lead to some unpleasant incidents.
This Pizarro guy, how dare he seize the fleet at the G-12 Marine Base?
However, this also proves that, apart from G-5, the Marines originally had little deterrent effect on the people in the New World.
The same applies to the G-12.
In the past, this situation might have been resolved through negotiations between the G-12 Marines base commander and other inter-agency discussions.
However, times have changed.
The New World is now in the Marines era of Ortolan, and the base commander of G-12 is Vice Admiral Momonga!
Lieutenant Vice Admiral Momonga came from G-5. He worked with Ortolan from scratch to make G-5 big and powerful. During his tenure in the New World, he was always the one bullying others. Who dared to bully him?
So when the Momonga learned that someone had seized his fleet, he was very shocked!
Who? Who dares to be so bold?!
Don't you know that Admiral Ben is now the governor of the New World? Don't you know that I, the Momonga, am Admiral Ben's trusted and beloved general?
You dare mess with me?
Upon learning of this situation, the Momonga immediately mustered its troops and, with the large fleet from the G-12 Marine Base, headed towards the Romerik Kingdom.
The Momonga had no intention of negotiating with this Abaro Pizarro. The moment the fleet arrived, it sank the entire national fleet of the Romerik Kingdom. Subsequently, the G-12 Marines surrounded the Romerik Kingdom and recaptured the fleet and Marines they had seized.
The Momonga did not stop the operation. Instead, it went along with the will of the people and declared that the ruling class, led by the evil king Abaro Pizarro, was illegal and that Abaro Pizarro was a false king!
Abaro Pizarro was a tough guy, choosing to fight against the Momonga. In the end, the two fought for two days and one night, Vice Admiral Momonga, who used a variety of abilities, finally suppressed the guy.
Currently, Avalo Pizarro is being held in a prison at the G-12 Marine Base, and the Momonga is considering sending him to mine in the Calm Belt.
At this time, the G-12 Marines has taken over the Romerik Kingdom and found a tenth in line to the throne from the remnants of the former royal family, making him the king of the Romerik Kingdom again.
Then, taking advantage of this opportunity, the Momonga began to implement the old strategy of 'Marines reserves' in the Romerik Kingdom, intending to develop the G-12 Marines territory towards the state of G-5!
He's very familiar with this; he picks it up extremely quickly!
The new king of Romerique ascended the throne entirely through the help of the flying Momonga, so of course he wouldn't object to the Momonga's arrangements.
Moreover, because the incident was so heinous, it also drew the attention of some neighboring countries. After learning about the tragic beheading of the former king, they also hoped to receive Marines protection, and the Momonga intended to promote this policy.
Simply put, the Momonga is also going to develop a new G-12 Marines!
"One by one, they're all starting to pop up?" Ortolan said with a sigh as he looked at the internal publication.
Perhaps it was because the time was almost up, or perhaps for some other reason, but recently, he has been able to see faces and figures from his memories through various channels.
Like this so-called "Tyrant King Abarro Pizarro," and the former "San Juan Wolf."
Not only them, but the next news item in the internal publication is about this year's Supernovas, the Great Tumbler, Basque Jotte, whose bounty is 246 million Beli.
The internal publication even featured a wanted poster of him. When Ortolan saw the poster, he felt that this guy was very young. Then he saw the age listed below and realized that the kid was only twenty-one years old.
Then he realized that the guy was only thirty-eight years old when he appeared in the novel.
As this year's Supernovas, this guy is quite brave. After entering the New World, he clashed with G-1's Marines. Stolobey was completely helpless against him and failed to capture him. In addition, two of his warships were destroyed.
The Great Tumbler then entered the territory of Crush Strike Smoker, Shichibukai, to challenge Smoker.
This is not a strange phenomenon. In fact, every year, newcomers entering the New World enjoy challenging the strong in the New World.
However, some people choose Great Pirate like Whitebeard, Big Mom, Kaido, while others choose the Shichibukai.
Some people even enjoy challenging G-5 or Ortolan.
In fact, after serving as a base commander in the New World for so many years and now rising to the rank of Admiral, Ortolan has never actually seen any rookie pirate who could truly challenge him.
Generally, when they choose to challenge G-5, they are usually defeated by Momonga, Kajiki, and others.
The Great Tumbler boldly announced that he would challenge the Shichibukai, Crush Strike Smoker.
Then, on the sixth day after entering Smoker's territory, he was found by the unusually irritable Smoker, and the two sides fought for less than a night.
The Great Tumbler was almost smashed to pieces by Smoker, and it was only thanks to the desperate rescue of his men that he was able to escape from Smoker's clutches.
Stolobey at G-1 base is now aware of the situation and has assembled a pursuit fleet to hunt down this Great Tumbler, preparing to capture him while he is injured by Smoker.
Two weeks after the Great Tumbler challenge, Whitey White Bay, the independent captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, was also challenged.
To be precise, they were ambushed.
Unlike Great Tumbler, who loudly announced his challenge to Smoker, the two-year-old Supernovas, Katrina Deppon, has been in the New World for two and a half years.
After lurking in the New World for so long, she ambushed Whitebeard Pirates Bay, the independent captain of the White Bay Pirates.
The result was that Whitey Bay lost. White Bay was once a combat officer on the Whitebeard Pirates' ship. Later, he gradually built his own pirate crew, which was very powerful. He fought many peak battles with the young Whitebeard, including the fierce battle with the Roger Pirates.
She has extensive combat experience. Although she was ambushed by the Crescent Hunter Katarina Devon on an island, she still managed to counterattack, defeating and suppressing Katarina Devon.
She imprisoned Devon on her pirate ship, intending to give him as a gift to her father, Whitebeard, to see if he would be willing to accept such a decent new member.
However, halfway through, Katrina Depon escaped her restraints and disappeared.
As Ortolan read the news in the internal publication, he kept sighing with emotion.
It's not that this situation hasn't happened in previous years, nor is it that New World is particularly lively this year.
In fact, the New World has always been like this. It's just that in the past, people like them who caused trouble had no impression of Ortolan. Now, it feels like seeing an acquaintance in the newspaper.
Therefore, Ortolan felt somewhat emotional.
