Chapter 419: You Are Saiyans, and I am Frieza
Chapter 419: You Are Saiyans, and I am Frieza
The cape shrunk, allowing the Doom Star to land in the center of the town, and his men jumped off the ship, starting to wander around this tree-surrounded town.
The entire town was walled, with the entrance located at the tail of the Elephant King. However, Sage bypassed it by descending from the sky.
The town at the center was nestled among the clouds, as the Elephant King towered high, and this misty town was also called 'Cloud City' by the Fur Tribe.
In terms of diameter, the entire town spanned a thousand meters, a considerable size, and could be considered a large city on the open sea.
Near the Elephant King's head was the Whale Forest, the holy site of the Fur Tribe.
This was also the place Sage was heading to.
The Fur Tribe's submission to Sage was optional; he didn't mind either way.
For this type of stubborn species, Sage usually didn't bother with them; he didn't have the time to play the game of conquering them.
Because he himself was a stubborn one, he understood what it meant to be stubborn.
It wasn't a matter of hitting a wall and suddenly realizing the truth; it would take a decade or two to change a stubborn mind, and they might even convince others instead.
Sage wasn't a bloodthirsty person, but he wasn't merciful either. However, unless necessary, he was also reluctant to kill.
He was just a pirate, not a murderer.
He didn't want to massacre, but he could still cause an instant explosion.
It was simple and easy.
Fortunately, they surrendered in time, and everyone was happy.
"If you had done this earlier, we wouldn't have had to fight at all. Did you really want me to put on a dazzling fireworks display, Pedro San, Sicilian San?" Sage laughed as he spoke to the lion and leopard accompanying him on the way to the Whale Forest.
After the surrender and the flag-planting, Sage didn't need any information from the Fur Tribe. He headed straight to the Whale Forest, accompanied by Lily and two so-called second-generation Fur Tribe leaders.
One was the captain of the Doglan Musketeers, and the other was the leader of the Cat Viper Rovers, both qualified to inherit their positions. After their retirement, they were already considered de facto successors.
"Your Excellency."
Pedro paused and said, "Why are you so sure that what you're looking for is in our Zouwu? We believe that no information has been leaked."
At this point, it would be stupid to say that the Fur Tribe was unaware of the Historical Monument.
He just didn't understand why Sage was so certain.
Not all Fur Tribe members knew about this matter. Many knew that the Whale Forest was a holy site, but they didn't know about something like the Historical Monument.
Only those with higher status knew these secrets.
As for Sage's captain, the Black Cat Fur Tribe, he didn't even acknowledge the existence of Zouwu, acting as if he were visiting for the first time and thus wouldn't know.
"Maybe I was born knowing it, hahaha."
Sage laughed and said, "Rest assured, I don't really care if you hide or reveal information. I didn't expect anything from you anyway. As for your loyalty, I don't care if it's genuine or not. Just serve me."
"If you do well, Pedro, I'll help you reclaim your life, which is like a flickering candle in the wind."
"You..."
Pedro was stunned. "How did you know?!"
"The remnants of Big Mom's power on you are visible from afar, and that's not good. You can't show fear to that old lady."
Sage laughed and glanced at Sicilian, saying, "Both of you, serve me well, and you'll have everything you desire."
Pedro remained silent, but Sicilian was deep in thought.
They did have ambitions; it wasn't like they didn't.
When Pedro set sail with Brook, Laboon, and Laboon's brother, they had the idea of finding the Historical Monument, but they also wanted to make a name for themselves.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have named their pirate crew so grandly.
Their crew was called the Knox Pirates, or Knox, Rox, with the same pronunciation.
Did they really have no ambitions? As for Sicilian, while he valued friendship, he was also a strict and powerful person who considered some words as signs of weakness.
Words like gentle, love, child, sugar, and honey, representing weakness, innocence, and goodness, were not to his liking.
For the younger generation, if he heard them uttering such words, he would personally throw them into deep valleys and cliffs to toughen them up.
In essence, Sage came here to subdue them, and he didn't cause much bloodshed.
This guy was one who showed mercy; otherwise, he wouldn't have bothered with persuasion and would have destroyed them from the start.
It was also because Sicilian realized this after the battle that his resistance wasn't as strong. Although he wasn't sure what it was like under the rule of this Pirate Emperor, judging by the man and his crew, they seemed to be bold and unconstrained.
Especially before they set off, Sicilian saw the pirates who came down from the ship, and they didn't harm the Fur Tribe members. They even shared resources with them, items the Fur Tribe had never seen before.
It seemed that after submitting and pledging their loyalty, they truly believed they were part of the same group.
Aside from Duke Doglan and Cat Viper Boss, who were still resentful, the rest of the group's fear of Sag originated from the initial invasion and the tension during the battle.
After confirming that no one had died, they also ascertained that the Fur Tribe had no ill intentions towards them. Although the tribe possessed the power to destroy them, their inaction still left the group in fear, albeit not to the point of terror.
"Can we survive on the open sea as well?" Sicilian asked.
"In the World Government, you are priced the same as the Longarm and Longleg Tribes, fetching up to 700,000 belli. I don't know if you can survive on the open sea, but in my territory, you'll live happily," Sag assured them.
"But we can't do anything except fight," Pedro added.
The Fur Tribe, being self-aware, were not a productive people.
Their meat came from the food that splashed up with the seawater during the Elephant King's twice-daily water sprays, while their vegetables and fruits were produced in the forest. Aside from these, there were no other signs of production.
The Fur Tribe preferred cooler temperatures and were unsuited for hot climates, so they could only stay in places with suitable or slightly colder climates.
They had always lived on Zou, not only due to tradition but also because there was a possibility that the vast sea was not suitable for them.
"Indeed, to some extent, your habits are similar to the Celestial Dragons. You both dwell in high places and rely on sustenance. Moreover, you are both ancient races that have survived for at least hundreds of years. What secret compels you to dwell in such high places?"
Sag laughed, "Well, they rely on other nations, while you rely on this elephant. But it doesn't matter; your entire tribe is born warriors, and during the full moon, you can even transform. You'll be very useful."
With numerous examples, he easily devised a plan for utilizing the Fur Tribe.
An entire tribe of warriors, transforming during the full moon...
That sounded very familiar!
Treating the sea as the universe and islands as planets, the Fur Tribe could be like Saiyans.
Sag didn't mind playing the role of Frieza, using the Fur Tribe as his weapon. Although he wasn't at the level of clearing an island of its inhabitants and then selling it to someone else, he could certainly use them as a specialized combat and robbery force.
When facing defiant islands, sending a few members of the Fur Tribe and having them transform during the full moon would surely get the job done, right? As for internal resistance within the Fur Tribe,
Sag was merely playing the role of Frieza; he wasn't Frieza himself. The Fur Tribe didn't have any legends of a Super Fur Tribe, so if they stubbornly sought revenge, he could easily wipe them out.
"We've arrived."
As he spoke, Sag stood on the ground, gazing at the massive tree ahead, resembling a whale. He waved his hand at the group and said, "Step aside. I'll destroy it."
He couldn't remember where the Red Historical Monument was mentioned in the main text, but it didn't matter. Destroying everything here would naturally reveal the Red Historical Monument.
The hardness of that thing was far greater than that of a tree.
"My lord, let me do it," Sicilian suddenly stepped forward, took a deep breath, and said, "Since you're certain that what you seek is here, please don't destroy our holy site. I'll willingly offer you the Red Historical Monument."
Now, there was no point in doing anything else.
Sag was determined to obtain that object, and they had already reached their destination. It was best to be straightforward.
Sicilian and Pedro exchanged a glance, and the latter nodded, closing his eyes and accepting this outcome.
Sicilian stepped forward, searched around the massive tree roots, and opened a secret door, revealing a relatively spacious wooden chamber.
As they entered, they saw a bird-shaped emblem at the far end, and beneath it was a square stone identical to the one in the Storm City Palace's training room, also engraved with incomprehensible text.
But it was red.
"Is that the Guide Marker?" Lily murmured.
"Ah, the Guide Marker. Big Mom has one, Kaido has one, and I obtained this one from Zou."
Sag approached the Red Historical Monument, caressing the engravings on its surface and looking up at the emblem above. "The Kozuki Family, a lineage of stonemasons with techniques surpassing those of the present. They could carve on indestructible stones. I can't understand why ancient things always seem to surpass modern technology, but it doesn't matter. With this, I'll solidify my name as the Pirate Emperor!"
How could a Yonko not have a Guide Marker?
He wasn't like Whitebeard, who had no interest in Laugh Tale.
"With this, no one can go to Laugh Tale without my knowledge! Hohohoho!"
Whether it was a coincidence or not, he now had a Guide Marker. Since he was a pirate, he wanted that treasure too.
Regardless of fate, everyone would have to go through him. Who knows who will snatch it in the end!
