Chapter 271: Negotiation

"I am Karl, and this is the Empress of Amazon Lily, Boa Hancock."

Gan Fall looked at Hancock in surprise, and then looked at Karl's hand hugging Hancock with a strange gaze.

This woman is the Empress, then you are... the Empress Consort?

"I am Gan Fall. What do you want from me? Just say it."

Karl smiled slightly: "Straightforward! Then I'll say it directly."

"Tomorrow, Enel and his priests and God's soldiers will leave the Sky Island."

Gan Fall's expression changed, and he shouted in disbelief: "Young friend, what did you just say? Enel is leaving?"

Come to think of it, he really did hear thunder today. He thought Enel was using God's judgment to judge those who didn't obey him again, but he never thought that Enel would leave tomorrow!

"What meaning would there be in me lying to you? Otherwise, how do you think I found you?"

"Did... Enel tell you? That's right, his Mantra is enough to cover the entire Sky Island. He must know I live here."

"Is he really leaving?"

To better explain this problem and avoid wasting words, Karl directly held the Wado Ichimonji.

*Swish~*

A black-purple flying slash shot straight into the sky.

Gan Fall didn't even react. He only saw Karl move his hand, and then... looking at the sky, the clouds were cut open...

"This, what kind of power is this! Could it be, you, you defeated Enel?"

"That's right. You don't need to know the specific situation. You just need to understand that Enel and his people will leave tomorrow. Before we take over the Sky Island, you will manage it, can you?"

Is this another 'God' eyeing the Sky Island? Gan Fall thought to himself.

Seeing Gan Fall's expression change, Hancock said indifferently: "After we take over the Sky Island, Angel Island will still be managed by you. What we want is only Jiayadao."

"Jiayadao?"

Karl added: "That is the Upper Yard you call the Holy Land. By the way, I forgot to tell you, we come from the Blue Sea."

Blue Sea? Gan Fall suddenly remembered a person—no, a group of people. They also came from the Blue Sea.

"You are from the Blue Sea? Many years ago, a group of people from the Blue Sea also came here. By the way, the leader was called Gol D. Luo Jie. Do you know him?"

Hancock looked at Karl in surprise and whispered: "Isn't Luo Jie that Pirate King? He also came to the Sky Island?"

"He's the Pirate King, it's not strange that he came to the Sky Island."

"Pirate King? So he was already that powerful?"

Karl said indifferently: "He's dead, dead for many years."

"Ah?" Gan Fall looked incredulous. Although he hadn't seen Luo Jie for a long time, his conversation and demeanor made Gan Fall remember him vividly to this day. How could such a man die so early?

Karl waved his hand: "Alright, the topic has drifted. I'll ask you one more time: after Enel leaves, are you willing to manage the Sky Island for us for a period of time and become the ruler of the Sky Island again?"

Gan Fall looked at Karl with burning eyes and agreed without hesitation.

Before Enel came, he was a God who loved his people, leading the residents of the Sky Island to live a happy and healthy life until God Enel appeared with his priests and God's soldiers.

Even so, he didn't give up hope and used his remaining strength to silently save the people and govern the country.

Now, the opportunity was right in front of him. Even for the sake of the people of the Sky Island, he couldn't refuse.

"Very good, Gan Fall. From tomorrow on, the Sky Island will be temporarily managed by you. After her people move over, the Sky Island will be renamed Amazon Lily, and Angel Island will belong to Amazon Lily, but you will still be the manager of Angel Island."

Facing the big pie Karl drew, Gan Fall just smiled lightly: "Thank you for your trust, young friend."

"Since that's the case, we won't disturb you anymore. You prepare yourself, we're leaving first."

"Uh, young friend Karl, are you going to...?"

Karl turned his head and smiled: "Don't worry! We're just going to stay at Angel Island for one night. We'll come to find you again tomorrow. After all, we still have many things we want to ask you."

Gan Fall breathed a sigh of relief, but when he saw Karl and the others preparing to leave, he hurriedly shouted: "Wait a moment, young friend Karl!"

"Is there anything else?"

Gan Fall took a deep breath and told the story of the Shandians.

400 years ago, after the Upper Yard was brought to the White-White Sea by the Knock-Up Stream, the Sky Islanders, who had never seen land, regarded it as a Holy Land and invaded the Upper Yard, renaming it 'God's Island'.

The expelled Shandians launched a 400-year war against the Sky Islanders to take back their homeland and ring the Golden Bell again to fulfill their promise to Noland, until Enel arrived and used his powerful strength to suppress the Shandians, turning the conflict between Sky Islanders and Shandians into a conflict between priests and Shandians.

Originally, with Enel's strength, he could have easily wiped out the Shandians, but to temper the priests and God's soldiers under his command, he just ignored them. Anyway, no matter how they made trouble, as long as he made a move, everything would be silenced in thunder.

"Shandians? That's a trouble..."

The Upper Yard is the future Amazon Lily, so it's naturally her territory. How can others snore on the side of one's couch? According to her thoughts, she definitely wanted to drive all the Shandians out.

However, she doesn't need to think about these things now, just ask Karl.

"Mm, I know. Anyway, we will stay here for a while. We will solve the Shandians' matter, you don't need to worry about it."

Gan Fall frowned, thinking Karl wanted to wipe out all the Shandians, and persuaded him with unbearable heart: "If possible, I can talk to them. Wouldn't it be better to end the 400-year war without a fight?"

Karl snorted: "400 years, have you solved it?"

"Mind your own business, Gan Fall."

After speaking, Karl took Hancock, rode Raven, and flew toward Angel Island, leaving Gan Fall sighing in place.

"Darling, you aren't really planning to... do that to all the Shandians, are you?"

Karl shook his head: "Probably not. Let's try courtesy before force. At worst, send them all to Jiayadao below."

"Hee hee, that's true. Hey, I heard them say there is a lot of gold on the Upper Yard?"

Karl said exaggeratedly: "That's for sure. You know Shandora is known as the Land of Gold! Gold can be piled into mountains, you say, is there a lot?"

"My God! Then aren't we rich?"

Karl teased: "Yes, you'll be a rich woman then. Maybe I'll have to rely on you to support me!"

"Is that so? Then how many Berries does it take to keep you? I'll start with ten years!" ===== CHAPTER 273 =====
