He would have to get his fortune told later.
His secretary, Qikara, came into the office and handed him some documents. "Good, these are the recent developments in the North Blue. Please take a look."
"..."
The thick stack of documents made Good's head ache a little more.
"Anything important?"
"Two matters are relatively important."
Qikara picked up the topmost document.
"Avalo Pizarro, the [Corrupt King] from the North Blue, returned to his country and seized power by force. He is now ruling as a tyrant."
"Tell Aokiji to handle it."
Good gave the order.
The North Blue was too shallow to accommodate big fish.
Capturing the Corrupt King would make for excellent publicity, but the man's ability was powerful. Ordinary people really could not handle him.
Aokiji would probably have to go in person.
Qikara nodded and brought up the second matter.
"The Lubni Kingdom, one of the World Government Member States, contacted us. Its king wants to sell us his country for 50 billion Beli."
"Huh?!"
Good froze.
What the hell? Selling his country?
Qikara explained, "Good, this isn't particularly unusual. Buying and selling kingdoms is quite normal among the nobility."
"Normal?"
Good gave her an odd look.
How was that normal? It clearly wasn't.
Although he had little hope for the moral standards of royalty and nobles, selling their country outright and running away was far too inhuman.
Qikara hesitated, then asked somewhat uneasily, "Good, have you heard of the Celestial Dragons' Native Hunting Competition?"
"I've heard a little."
Good frowned.
Qikara explained, "The Celestial Dragons hold a hunting competition every three years. They choose resource-rich unaffiliated nations and slaughter all the natives. Afterward, they sell the islands to nobles who want to establish new kingdoms, or develop them themselves."
"So that's how it works."
Good understood.
