Chapter 584 Two Years and the Farewell Concert [1/3]
Chapter 584 Two years and the farewell concert [13]
"King of Soul Farewell Concert!"
The Chambord Islands, originally an island where entertainment and criminals coexisted highly, became extremely calm in an instant after this banner was posted, and the crime rate plummeted to zero.
It's not that this banner has any magical power. Of course, some pirates are attracted by the banner, and they don't care about their "career" for a short time. Instead, they are looking for scalpers to buy tickets, which leads to no time for conflicts or crimes.
But the more important reason is that along with this news came another news, that is, all members of Zhan Ye Detachment will participate in this concert.
Even though when the news first came out, there was still a full month before the start of the concert, but since that day, there has been no more crimes in the Chambord Islands.
Even some crime reporting areas, such as bars and coating factories, have undergone large-scale renovations, replacing walls with bullet holes or logging marks.
Even a group of pirates wearing clothes with skulls printed on them spontaneously borrowed tools and materials to maintain the Chambord Islands. Their life skills before going to sea were fully utilized in this short month. come out.
Some repair the ground, some act as carpenters, helping residents and merchants renovate houses and public facilities here, and some use their artistic talents to help repaint the buildings on this island.
Even the graffiti of skulls that could be seen everywhere in the past have now become seagulls or doves of peace. The pirate ship in the coating factory also silently removed the skull flag, replaced it with brand new white sails, and repainted the hull.
With the approach of the concert, the clothing industry and hairdressing industry of the Chambord Islands have ushered in unprecedented business opportunities. Countless pirates have bought decent clothes, which are messy, colorfully dyed and even tied with all kinds of strange clothes. The braided hair was combed back into a civilized look.
Some of them even pretended to wear plain glasses.
A group of people imprisoned by muscles, with neat oiled hair and decent suits, practiced walking on the street, put away the steps that their relatives did not recognize in the past, and as the practice deepened, it was like the whole city was full of bodyguards in suits.
Even quite a few pirates, during this month of helpfulness and self-denial, began to doubt whether the life of pirates is really happy.
After all, they dressed in tattered clothes, walked with disrespectful steps, and bought on credit everywhere, and all they got were disgusted and fearful eyes.
However, since they started helping these people, they have felt grateful eyes and sincere smiles from people for a long time.
Countless pirates broke their defenses after a certain child said "Uncle, I will learn from you to help others when I grow up", crying in the middle of the night, re-assessing their past, whether it is really the life they pursue.
Even, in order to prevent some new pirates from tarnishing this city of entertainment that had been transformed into civilization with great difficulty, the pirates spontaneously formed a defense fleet to prohibit those newcomers from setting foot on the Chambord Islands.
Even if some newcomers wisely expressed that they would abide by the new rules of the Chambord Islands, after evading the attack and coming to the Chambord Islands, they still need to go through the three stages of bathing, haircut, and buying new clothes.
Even so, they cannot be free, and must pass a series of etiquette examinations before they can be approved to enter the Chambord Islands.
In just one month, the Chambord Islands have been transformed into a city of civilization and order that perhaps even Marin Vanduo can't keep up with. Even this kind of order seems absurd to the entertainment industry in the Chambord Islands.
Some CPs who just came to the Chambord Islands and want to investigate the sudden change here feel like they have returned to the headquarters of the CP. This steel-like order and silence is really like the headquarters of the CP.
Two hours before the concert, in the afternoon, four warships slowly approached the Chambord Islands, but instead of sailing to the No. 60 island port where the naval station is located, they docked directly at the No. 30 island port.
It's closer to the bubble dome, so you don't need to walk too much.
"This is the Chambord Islands? Did you go the wrong way? I remember that the Chambord Islands don't look like this?"
When Schuyler saw the Chambord Islands in front of him, he was a little stunned. From the day the Chambord Islands were established to the present, there has never been a day when the Chambord Islands have been as brand new and tidy as they are today, right?
Nurkic also had a hint of amazement in his eyes, and said: "Although I have heard it mentioned by other detachments, this change is too great, and the entire Chambord Islands has been renovated."
It's hard to believe the Chambord Islands in front of you. After all, even the branches and leaves of the Alciman mangroves have been pruned, which is very beautiful.
If it weren't for the banners of "King of Soul's Farewell Concert" that can be seen everywhere, I am afraid that Nurkic would have to ask people to check whether he has gone the wrong way.
"Wow~"
Suddenly, some noisy voices came from the port below. Skyler frowned, but raised the corner of his mouth and said, "I know these pirates."
She just wanted to say that these pirates must want to make trouble, and she planned to find an excuse to clean it up, but when she looked down, she had to stop talking.
"Welcome Vice Admiral Schuyler and his naval colleagues to the Chambord Islands!"
Seeing the huge red banner pulled up by hundreds of pirates, Skyler didn't know what to say for a moment, and Nurkic's face became a little exciting.
This is a pirate? Is this Nima a pirate? !
"Bang bang bang~"
The next moment, the cannon rang, but this time, everyone was not so nervous. After all, whether it was the Zhanye detachment or the several detachments that came together, they were all very familiar with the sound of artillery.
Although it sounded like a cannonball, it was obviously not. They saw colored balls flying into the air one by one, and then exploded, causing countless colored papers to fall.
The corner of Skyler's mouth twitched, and he said, "Nurkic, to be honest, go and check to see if we've gone the wrong way."
Nurkic also had a complicated face. Looking at the bright and sincere smiles on the faces of the people in suits and leather shoes below, Nurkic could hardly believe that this was the Chambord Islands.
"Forget it, let's go down, if they really want to do something, then clear this place. If they don't make trouble, then so be it, give Brooke a face."
Skyler sighed and shook her head. She didn't know what attitude to use when facing such pirates.
But fortunately, it was her strength to be expressionless. She led the Zhanye Detachment, landed from the Zhanye Detachment warship, and set foot on the port of the Chambord Islands.
At this moment, Skyler keenly saw that many pirates took half a step back subconsciously. This feeling of fear made Skyler feel a little bit of nostalgia.
At this time, the pirates on the other three warships saw the Zhanye detachment coming down, and they all left the warship one after another. Ace, Luo, and Kuina all led their respective detachments down.
"That's the general?!"
Just when the pirates thought that Schuyler was the only important event, a man wearing a cloak of justice and a cane followed Guina's detachment to the Chambord Islands.
After the first person noticed, countless pirates reacted, this is the new general who became a general last year and has not yet officially appeared in front of the world-Fujitora!
Fujitora tapped the ground lightly, and said to Kuina beside him: "If pirates all over the world are like this, then our just cause will be complete."
Kuina nodded. If pirates all over the world are so civilized and humble, then maybe the world in her heart where crime can be eradicated without killing will really come.
Fujitora's expression was filled with emotion. Originally, he just came to watch a concert of his friends and colleagues, but he didn't expect to see such a dramatic scene. What a surprise.
Schuyler didn't bother with these pirates either, but led the team to walk towards the road. The pirates tactfully gave way to a wide enough road, and with a bright smile, they sent the navy into the Chambord Islands.
The shock was not over yet. When Skyler led the crowd to the bubble dome, they fell into a shocked silence again. There were only a few entrances, and they all lined up in a serpentine line in an orderly manner.
Not to mention a concert attended by a group of pirates, even if all civilians participated, it would not be so civilized, especially the serpentine team was formed spontaneously instead of being restricted by guardrails.
Moreover, an entrance is reserved in the middle, and no one enters through this entrance, even if there is no need to queue at all.
Seeing the arrival of the navy, the staff in charge of ticket checking at the entrance also greeted Skyler on their own initiative, and said enthusiastically, "Vice General Skyler, and everyone, please come in quickly."
Skyler nodded and looked at Nurkic. Nurkic took a step forward and took out a package ticket. The seats for the concert are round, 3/4 are open as seats, and only 1/4 is open. 4 is the background.
The seats were further divided into nine areas, and the Zhan Ye detachment directly bought out one of them. The area that was originally enough to accommodate ten thousand people now only needed to accommodate more than four thousand people.
However, the tickets were bought by Skyler by name, and the organizers dare not say anything nonsense, and at first they thought there were only 1,000 people coming, but now more than 4,000 people have come, which is already beyond the organizers' expectations.
At least there won't be too many vacancies now, and it won't be too embarrassing to take pictures by then.
After checking the tickets, Skyler and the others stepped into the bubble dome. The one closest to the center of the stage is a standing ticket, with a circle of solid railings, which may be convenient for the audience in the innermost circle to dance.
The seats for Skyler and others were not on the innermost floor. After all, Skyler didn't intend to face the stereo directly, and he didn't intend to stand foolishly for hours.
When Schuyler and others came to the large area under the leadership of the staff, Schuyler, who was supposed to find a place to sit down, stopped and turned to look at a corner.
It was the outermost circle and the cheapest place. At this time, there were not many people entering the venue. Skyler's eyes passed over the audience looking for seats, and stopped on a stone pillar.
At this time, a figure walked out from behind the stone pillar. He seemed to have sensed Skyler's gaze. When he came out, he slightly lowered his head towards Skyler, and pointed at the position of his temple with two fingers of his right hand. It was a virtual hat-off ceremony. .
Skyler's actions naturally made Nurkic, Jingping and the others react. They looked in the direction Skyler was looking at at the same time. An old school-style and elegant old man leaned on crutches. stand.
"Red Earl Redfield."
Nurkic narrowed his eyes slightly, not knowing why the Red Earl was here, but Skyler didn't give an order, nor did he act rashly.
"I didn't notice any malice, maybe it's just the audience."
Fujitora also came over at this time, and said softly, Skyler nodded, and said, "Well, I feel the same way, since today is a vacation and Brook's concert, everyone can be more casual."
After finishing speaking, Skyler also moved in the direction of the Red Earl, and copied the action he just made. Beside the stone pillar, seeing that Skyler did not destroy Brook's concert in order to arrest him, the Red Earl's face appeared smile.
He knew that his coming was a very dangerous thing for him, but this was Brooke's farewell concert, so he had to come.
Fortunately, Skyler also seems to understand romance very well, and did not behave inappropriately at this moment.
But the Red Earl didn't intend to let more people see him. After the face-to-face meeting, he returned to the stone pillar. Even though he bought a ticket, he didn't want to be among the crowd.
Because that would destroy the purity of the concert, and now he just wants to watch his idol's last performance quietly, so that he can end the journey of nearly two years.
Listening to hundreds of concerts in two years is enough for him to remember for the rest of his life.
When Skyler and others sat back in their seats, it was getting close to the start of the concert. Skyler chatted with Fujitora while drinking a drink:
"You still refused to let that clown Bucky become the king Shichibukai, may I ask why? After all... he shouldn't pose any threat, right?"
Fujitora thought for a while, and said: "I don't understand this person at all. Those who dare to stand on the top of the wave must have their own merits, but Bucky... But the objection of the next person seems to be useless."
"Maybe you are worrying unnecessarily, maybe it's just that Bucky is lucky?"
Skyler tried hard to recall, after Bucky became Shichibukai, he didn't do anything except set up a logistics company, right? In the end, it seems that Fujitora also promoted the abolition plan of Shichibukai.
If nothing else happened, Bucky should return to Advance City.
But Skyler also frowned at this time. After all, "no accident", it seems that it is difficult to happen to Bucky the Clown, but she didn't think for long, and shook her head.
"In two months, the World Conference will be held. Sakaski seems to be planning to bring the three generals there. Do you need me to impart some experience to you?"
Skyler asked in a provocative tone, Fujitora smiled slightly and said, "It's just Mary Joya, it's not like I haven't bombed with meteorites before."
"Haha! That's right, if you plan to copy it, remember to call me in advance and I'll support you!"
Only then did Skyler recall that Fujitora was the one who dared to use meteorites to wash the ground in Mary Gioia, so he didn't have to worry that he would become cowardly in Marie Gioia.
"However." Fujitora thought for a while, and said: "Marshal Sakaski said that because of the CP0 chief, the CP operation was suspended for a while, and now the alliance countries are not stable.
Perhaps the World Conference will be postponed for some time, and it should not be long. After all, the chief of CP0 has already taken office, and at most it is waiting for two or three months to rectify. "
"Who knows?"
Skyler shrugged. This time she was not arranged to go to the World Conference. After all, the twenty-five new branches of the New World have just been built, and the various routes have not been really sorted out.
Therefore, as the first base chief of GN-25, Skyler will not have much time, even if she does not need to do the work by herself, but the detachment is very busy.
The same is true for Ace and Luo. This time, Skyler only took three days of personal leave to participate in Brooke's farewell performance, and he has to return to the new world tomorrow.
Kuina is not busy. After all, she did not enter the New World, but was stationed in the original Marin Fanduo. Regardless of her strength or qualifications, she is still a little short of entering the New World.
"There's a lot going on this year, New World seems to be preparing for some kind of pirate party, and someone discovered a flying island in the East China Sea.
With the addition of the Red Earl, it seems that Lieutenant General Schuyler will not be too boring in your next days. "
Fujitora noticed that Skyler seemed a little listless, so he said to her, Skyler nodded, took another sip of his drink, and said:
"That's right. If there's no fun, I'd like to kill the emperor of the sea to kill some time."
In the whole world, maybe only Skyler dared to brag about this kind of bullshit. Fujitora, who has lived in Zanya Detachment for many years, also knows Skyler's character, and knows that she is not joking, so if he has Thinking said:
"After the World Conference, the navy will have money, or the plan of the New World. I feel that the boring life is coming to an end. Maybe the general will be out of the field next time."
"Better."
Skyler nodded, and wanted to say something, the lights in the bubble dome suddenly turned off, and the special bubble dome secreted by the Alchman mangrove was also closed by a curtain at this time.
The concert scene, which was originally extremely bright, became very dim. Except for the signal lights of some equipment and the cheering objects in the hands of fans, it was basically pitch black.
"Ten! Nine! Eight"
The speakers arranged in all directions of the venue also heard the countdown at this time. The female voice seemed very immature and full, and listening to it was also a kind of enjoyment.
Although Skyler didn't like the atmosphere of the concert very much, he was not talking at this time, but quietly looked towards the direction of the concert stage.
"Two! One! The concert is about to start, please put the phone bug to sleep or silent mode. You can record and video, and you can sing and sing as much as you want.
Don't be shy, avoid, hurt, influence yourself or others, and don't do shameful things. Please enjoy this performance. "
"clatter!"
After the words were finished, several spotlights were cast on the center of the stage, where stood a pair of skeletons wearing sunglasses, wearing a long white leather cape, holding an electric guitar in their hands, and a microphone stand in front of them.
"Woo~"
"Wow~"
In an instant, countless applause and cheers rang out, and the audience with the support sticks and support cards in their hands waved them vigorously, as if trying to attract the attention of the skeleton on the stage.
Layer after layer of sound waves echoed in the venue, but the skeleton never moved. Even a small part of the audience began to wonder whether it was Brook, the king of soul, or a skeleton?
Skyler showed a smile at this time, and said, "Brooke is so coquettish."
Nurkic and the others, who were also cheering at first, froze when they heard the adjective from their own official, but after thinking about it, they cheered even louder. After all, Brooke is really flamboyant!
The cheers never stopped, forming a stark contrast with Brooke who had not moved. One minute, two minutes, until twenty minutes, when the cheers were hoarse, Brooke under the spotlight suddenly raised his head.
"Woo~"
"Wow~"
A small move swept away the tiredness of the twenty minutes, and everyone shouted again. This time, Brook didn't make the audience wait any longer.
"Da~da~"
His right foot tapped the floor lightly, and the radio spread the rhythmic treading sound, and Brooke also spoke, saying in a deep voice: "Life is music! Baby!"
Different from the hoarse and soft words, the sharp distorted guitar sound sounded almost at the same time. After twenty minutes of silence, the king of soul finally showed his charm.
The music, which was like the whisper of an ancient god, attracted even Skyler, who is not a music lover, his body swayed gently with the music, and Fujitora, a very calm general, also used his blind stick again and again. Hit the ground.
"For the new world~"
When Skyler came back to his senses, he found that the audience was already singing in chorus, and even Nurkic, who usually didn't even have time to drink a glass of water, could easily sing along at this time.
Skyler didn't know if it was Brook's magic, or Nurkic secretly practiced singing,
On the stage, Brook was no longer alone. The entire band had also come to the stage to accompany Brook.
Skyler took a deep breath, suppressing an emotional restlessness. I don't know if Nurkic is secretly practicing songs, but it is true that Brook's music has magical powers.
Even she, and Fujitora can be waved thinking, which is really terrible, especially Brook is not using the fruit ability now, or his music is the best expression of the fruit ability.
Deus, next to Ace, was already kneeling on the seat, singing and shaking the support card in his hand.
There was no talk of relaxation in the venue at all. From the moment the music started, the venue became a boiling pot. Except for the girl with two-color hair who would sing a little calmer when Brooke was changing clothes, there was no pause at all.
It was three hours, and one hour had passed since the scheduled time for the concert. Brook had already returned twice, and the cheers still did not stop.
Amidst the cheers, the original slack lights gathered again. Everyone knew that Brooke was about to return to the arena again. Everyone burst into cheers, and even Skyler yelled twice.
Brook, who returned to the stage, changed into a long cape again, but the style seemed to be a little different. His sleeves did not pass through the sleeves, and the cape was just draped over his shoulders, with epaulettes on his shoulders.
This is the Naval Justice Cape!
Brook didn't have a guitar in his hand, and the band had all gone backstage. Brook came to the microphone stand and said, "I want to keep singing! But, sorry."
"Woo~"
Cheers rang out, and Skyler even heard several female voices yelling things like "Love me and don't go away."
Brooke let out a "yo ho ho ho ho" chuckle, and then said: "I'm sorry, I made an agreement, it's time to leave this stage, if I can't see you again in the future, you can't see me again
Let me love each other to the bottom of my heart baby! ! ! "
Amid the unprecedented cheers and applause, Brooke, without any accompaniment, raised his hand and began to beat the beat, then waved his hand to direct the crowd, and sang himself: "Yohohoho~ yohooo~
yo ho ho ho ~ yo ho ho ho ~
"
After one song was sung, Brook turned around and never looked back, leaving only the word "justice" on the back for all the audience.
