Chapter 113 Tepruto
Princess Alice's "plea" had a good effect. The eldest princess of the Kingdom of Vera has a very high reputation among the people, and everyone sees the injury she suffered this time.
Therefore, even those who still doubted the king and were dissatisfied temporarily accepted Alice's request.
Although the spies installed by Richardo and Tepruto in Ebinski Port spared no effort to incite the crowd, they did not dare to be too obvious in the face of the general trend. Finally, they seemed to have received another call bug, and then quietly retreated, presumably receiving some signal.
The unprecedented turmoil at Ebinski Port has finally come to an end.
Princess Alice, who persisted until the crowd dispersed, finally couldn't hold on anymore and fainted. Then, she was put on the bed by two doctors and received emergency treatment.
As soon as she woke up, Princess Alice impatiently asked to see Profik and others.
……
"Mr. Profic, if you hadn't been here today, I really don't know what would have happened." Alice was lying on the hospital bed, covered with a white quilt, and was undergoing a blood transfusion. Her tone was weak and her face was pale. Due to excessive blood loss, her skin looked pale and transparent. But the appearance of the whole person is even better.
Thinking of today's experience, Alice was still frightened, so she couldn't stop thanking her.
Faced with Alice's gratitude, Profik felt a little "deserved". After all, their motives for helping Princess Alice were not simple. To a certain extent, it is to increase the chips for becoming a Shichibukai.
"When we see rough roads, we should help each other, but we really don't deserve the princess's gratitude." Profik decided to stop the topic of thanks for the time being, "It's not the time to relax yet."
"what do you mean……"
"Is it possible that someone will come to Port Ebinski to cause trouble?" Before Princess Alice could finish her words, Josephine took over the conversation. Maybe she was too nervous today.
Morana still maintained his hostility towards Li Sefen: "I heard that politicians should be able to 'keep their expression unchanged even when the mountain collapses'. How can you actually become the mayor of a city like you?"
In her opinion, Li Seifen's performance today was too weak and completely inadequate to shoulder the responsibilities of a city councilor.
Needham shrank his neck back in fear and did not dare to speak. He has seen how powerful Morana is. When Profik was speaking on the terrace, Lisefine had just shouted the word "pirate" when Gao Shifu held her head down. Then, he was beaten violently by Morana, who forced him to cooperate in inviting Alice to give a speech on the balcony.
"Miss Morana, please don't criticize Mr. Lee Seifen harshly." Princess Alice stepped forward to speak for Lee Seifen. She was amused by Morana's unique way of speaking, so she imitated and said, "I I heard that ‘there are specialties in the arts’, and Mr. Li Sefen always gets the first place in every performance evaluation!”
"Mr. Lisefine, don't blame Miss Morana," Alice turned around and persuaded Lisefine, "Mr. Profic, Miss Molana, they are not bad people..."
After Josephine calmed down, Alice looked at Profik again: "Mr. Profik, please continue talking."
"I have just interrogated Juales, and that guy has a lot of useful information." Profic continued what he just said, "Those pirate groups that attacked villages and towns are indeed connected with Richardo. They The reason for doing this is to put the blame on your father."
"Now, their conspiracy to incite the people has been destroyed," Profic analyzed, "if your father is indeed a benevolent monarch..."
Alice immediately said: "Of course! My father would never do anything to betray the people."
"Then," Profic stood up from his seat, but his voice sank, "If they want to win, there is only one way left..."
……
Aston.
"What should we do?" Richardo sighed, he underestimated Princess Alice's influence among the crowd. The news coming back from Port Ebinski clearly showed that Princess Alice successfully returned to Port Ebinski and even gave a very successful speech to the crowd. At present, the protests at Ebinski Port have been successfully quelled.
Richardo sighed regretfully and sat down on the sofa: "I didn't expect it! Just one conversation..."
At this moment, he even had the idea of retreating. If he stopped at this moment, could he still be his own duke?
Seemingly sensing Richardo's thoughts, Tepruto said: "Don't think about unnecessary things. Alice and Isabella will not forgive you for your mistakes. Don't forget their attitude towards pirates." ! From the moment you choose to cooperate with us, you have only one way to go to the end."
As soon as Tepruto opened his mouth, he blocked Richardo's last escape route. Unlike Richardo, Tepruto did not feel sad about the failure of the plan. On the contrary, he was even a little happy.
Richardo looked at Tepruto, and he suddenly understood. Tepruto had been cooperating with him from the beginning, hoping to reveal the fact that Richardo was cooperating with the pirates to the people at the critical moment in order to destroy it. idea of his plan.
"I'm afraid, even if Profic's group of guys hadn't intervened, you wouldn't have let my plan succeed, right?" Richardo suppressed his anger and asked, "After all, in this case, all I can rely on is It’s just you.”
But now I understand, it's too late.
"Are these things still important now?" Tepruto did not intend to hide his thoughts anymore. In his opinion, Richardo's plan to use the pirates to cause trouble and frame the blame on Isabella III was not at all It's not clever either, and it will be leaked sooner or later. With the turmoil in Port Ebinski subsided, it was no longer possible for Richardo to ascend the throne by gaining prestige through "mass movements".
The only way before him was to ascend to the throne by force. The only high-end force that Richardo can use is Tepruto and his group. Once Tepruto officially enters the game, it will be difficult for Richardo to get the support of the World Government, and there is a high probability that he will only be able to rely on Tepruto. In this way, there is a high probability that the Kingdom of Vera will actually fall into the hands of Tepruto.
After seeing through Tepruto's plan, Richardo said coldly: "Don't forget that we are prosperous now, and the overall situation is still uncertain. You can't betray me!"
"Don't worry about this. You and I will both prosper and suffer. With me by your side, you will definitely be able to ascend the throne of the 'King of Vera.'" Tepruto said gloomily.
I'm afraid it's because of you that my great cause has come to a halt!
Richardo slandered, but he didn't dare to say anything more. If Tepruto was forced to fall out on the spot, he would still be the one to suffer. Therefore, although he was somewhat dissatisfied, Richardo had no choice but to continue to rely on him.
"Then what should we do now?" Richardo almost had his dissatisfaction written on his face. He stared at Tepruto, as if this way, the big pirate would be unable to do anything again. .
"There is only one way!" Tepruto said firmly, his tone seemed a little excited, obviously he was overjoyed that his goal was about to be achieved, "immediately raid the royal city of Villa, control the king, force him to write a suicide note, and pass the throne to you."
"You want to..."
Richardo clenched his fists and stood up from his seat suddenly. His veins were exposed, and he stared at Tepruto with a gaze that seemed to be capable of spewing angry flames.
Raiding the palace and controlling the king is easy to say but not so easy to do. Not to mention others, just Araki, the leader of Vera's army, is not easy to deal with. Richardo had seen Araki's abilities before. This man was highly skilled in martial arts and had the courage to be unstoppable. No one can take him down except Tepruto.
Such a plan is no different from a force attack.
If he really adopts it, I'm afraid he will never be recognized by the World Government and will have to rely on Tepruto for the rest of his life.
I am the Duke of Vera, how can I let others bully me like this?
He trembled with anger and seemed to want to refuse. But in the end, the noble Duke slumped back on the sofa, letting the soft sponge engulf his fat body.
