"Boss, Elmaru Oasis has arrived!" Swordsman Ike respectfully said to Meng Yi beside him.

He was originally a pirate, in order to avenge others, he killed the captain of the first team of the security brigade by himself, and was rescued by Meng Yi later, and now he is the security captain of the restaurant on the sea.

But because this is Alabasta, for unnecessary trouble, he wears a mask even in the sea restaurant.

As for why the two of them are here, we have to start talking about it a few days ago.

After King Cobra went back, he gave up the seawater converter according to what Meng Yi said. Although Princess Weiwei and others were extremely puzzled, the king didn't explain it, so they couldn't ask more questions.

Then Meng Yi's life returned to calm, but although the turnover has been growing slowly, Meng Yi has not received any tasks for several days in a row.

Mission rewards are a big help for Meng Yi to become stronger, so in order to accept the mission, Meng Yi began to disembark and wander around.

Although in this way, he can occasionally receive one or two tasks, but it is still too slow. The real way to quickly receive tasks is to deal with people from the original plot.

However, except for the senior agents of the Baroque Work Agency, he has basically seen all the characters who appeared in the Alabasta Kingdom.

Just when he was considering whether to go to those senior agents, he suddenly remembered that there was another force in Alabasta that he had neglected, and that was—the future rebel army!
Although there are quite a few people in the rebel army, there are not many people with real names and surnames. Among them, the leader Kosha cannot be ignored!

The playmate of Princess Weiwei when she was young, she was like an angry youth, and also a young man who loved the Alabasta Kingdom from the bottom of her heart.

In addition to Kosha, there is also his father, Doto, the city lord of Juba, who is called by Lu Fei as the dry uncle!
So in order to trigger the mission, Meng Yi took Ike, and the two went to Juba.

As for the restaurant on the sea, everything is running smoothly now, even if Meng Yi leaves temporarily, there will be no problem.

"Let's fix up here, replenish some supplies, and then set off!" Meng Yi stretched his waist and set foot on the port of Elmaru Oasis.

"Okay, boss!" Ike nodded, and followed Meng Yi's instructions to buy supplies and camels.

It would be very tiring to move forward in the desert without camels. Even though Meng Yi's physique has improved a bit now, he would not want to suffer if he could avoid this kind of hardship.

Not long after, Ike found Meng Yi who was drinking in a tavern, leading two camels full of supplies.

"Oh? Are you ready? Then let's go! I haven't been to Yuba yet! I heard it's well developed there!" Meng Yi said with a smile as he drank the barley wine in his glass.

"Brother, it is not a good choice to go to Yuba now! You must know that there has been no rain in all parts of the country for more than a month. Except for the port city that has not been affected for the time being, the rest of the cities are not very good. Good!" The uncle on the side shook his head and said.

Before Ike came over, Meng Yi had been chatting with this uncle, so he interrupted when he heard that Meng Yi wanted to go to Juba.

"Eh? Didn't Yuba rely on the oasis to build it? There shouldn't be a shortage of water there, right?" Meng Yi asked in surprise.

Because he is usually in Rohala, the biggest impact on the lack of water is that the price of drinks has increased. As for the others, he really didn't feel it.

"The oasis... also needs to be supplemented by rainwater! Otherwise, even the oasis can't withstand the whole city!" The uncle shook his head and said with a sigh.

Meng Yi was silent and did not speak, got up and settled the drink money of himself and the uncle next to him, and then took Ike to leave.

Although he always knew in his heart what the citizens of the Kingdom of Alabasta would face next, but when he actually faced it, he still couldn't bear it.

Suddenly he didn't want to go to Yuba anymore, because if that kind of tragic scene appeared in front of him, he didn't know if he could face it.

"Boss..." Ike seemed to see that Meng Yi was in a bad mood, so he said softly, "Shall we still go to Yuba?"

He thought that Meng Yi went to Yuba to do business. Now that he heard this kind of news, it was obvious that the business might not be done!
"Let's go!" In the end, Meng Yi decided to go and see for himself to see what Yuba had become.

The two ran towards Yuba all the way, and it took almost half a day to arrive at Yuba.

Unlike the dilapidated city he imagined, although Juba was plagued by drought at this time, it did not knock down this young city.

It's just different from the bustling port city. Although there are many people in the city, none of them have smiles on their faces.

"Let's go, let's visit the city lord here first!" Meng Yi was silent for a while, and walked directly to the center of the city.

"Stupid! The oasis of Yuba is going to dry up soon. If you don't take advantage of the fresh water, move it immediately. Do you want everyone here to be buried with this city?"

"Yuba will not lose to this kind of weather!"

Before the two of them got close, they found that the front of the City Lord's Mansion in the center of the city was surrounded by residents, and there were faint sounds of quarreling inside.

After Meng Yi approached, he realized that it was a short and fat man in traditional Alabasta costume who was arguing with a young man.

And Meng Yi recognized the two at a glance.

It was the goal of his trip, Kosha and his father, Doto, the lord of Juba.

"Task [-]: Stop the quarrel between the two! Reward for completing the task: One-hour turnover acceleration card!"

"Task 1: Let the two quarrel! Reward for completing the task: random basic attribute +[-]!"

The first time he saw the two of them, the system generously gave the task, which made Meng Yi happy, and secretly praised himself for coming here this time.

But after seeing the task, the happy mood was compromised.

"The system is telling me to sit on the sidelines, don't meddle in other people's business!" Meng Yi frowned at the task given by the system.

If you just watch the two quarreling like this, you will obviously lose a good opportunity to get close to them. Although you can still develop a relationship with them afterwards, it is obviously not convenient at this time.

"Why are you two arguing at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion? And it attracts so many onlookers, doesn't it seem very good?" After thinking for a while, Meng Yi finally chose Task [-] and stood up and said.

"Who are you?" The young man Kou Sha frowned and asked with displeasure.

Looking at Kou Sha, who had dark tea-green short hair and an obvious scar on his left eye, Meng Yi smiled and said, "I'm just a businessman, just passing through Yuba! I originally wanted to visit the city lord, but I didn't expect to see him Now that the two are arguing here! The City Lord’s Mansion frowned and said that it also represents the face of the Alabasta Kingdom, and the two are arguing here, isn’t it a bit inappropriate?”

Facing Meng Yi's statement, Kou Sha was stunned for a moment, seeing the people around him, he remained silent and did not refute.

It's not that he also felt that it was not good to quarrel in the City Lord's Mansion, but that he felt that he had already affected others, so he didn't continue to quarrel.

"Sir, I am the city lord of Yuba, Duo Tuo! I'm so sorry to make you laugh!" The fat uncle Duo Tuo came over and said with a smile.

"Eh?" Meng Yi pretended to be surprised and looked at Duo Tuo, and said, "It turned out that the city lord was in person, sorry!"

"It's okay, you're right, it's really wrong to argue here!" City Lord Duo Tuo shook his head and replied.

"Once the task is completed, start the follow-up task, and the reward will be settled after completion!"

"Task [-] follow-up task: understand the reason for the quarrel between the two, and give reasonable suggestions! Reward for completing the task: a recipe that will glow!"

The tasks of the system will either not come, or two will come once they come.

Looking at the follow-up mission that popped up, Meng Yi could only pinch his nose and admit it.

"If you don't mind... May I ask why the city lord is arguing with this big brother here?" After looking at the mission requirements, Meng Yi asked pretending to be curious.

"Ah~" the city lord of Doto sighed, and said, "It hasn't rained here for more than a month! Although Yuba was built on the oasis, it has been raining for more than a month in a row, even if it is the storage capacity of the oasis. , and it is already somewhat unable to satisfy the daily life of the residents! Therefore, he suggested that while there is still fresh water, let some residents take refuge in other cities, which can not only reduce the pressure on Juba, but also protect the people from water shortage. Impact!"

"So that's it!" Meng Yi nodded and said, "This big brother's suggestion is very good! I don't think anyone would be willing to bring everyone back after everything returns to normal, right?"

"The benefits of doing this are indeed obvious, but there are also disadvantages!" City Lord Duo Tuo shook his head and said.

"Hmph! Isn't it because you are the city lord, evacuating the people, and doing things like evacuating the people will affect your face? Why do you say it so high-sounding?" Kou Sha on the side didn't have the slightest awareness of being the lord of Duo Tuo and his father. It's called sharp.

"Asshole! Am I that kind of person?" Sure enough, after hearing this, the city lord of Duo Tuo immediately became furious, and shouted: "Now that the entire Alabasta kingdom is not raining, where do you plan to move people? What's the use of moving to another city besides bringing disaster to other cities?"

"And you said to transfer some people? Who will go first? The elderly? Children? How far can they go? Where will they go? Without the care of their families, how do you let those elderly and children survive? Die on the road or die in another city ? How will you explain to their families then?"

The city lord Duo Tuo is the lord of the city, and he considers things more comprehensively than a stunned young man like Kou Sha.

The surrounding people also lowered their heads.

If it is possible to relocate, they all want to relocate first. After all, the oasis of Yuba can't last long!
Hearing Doto's questioning, Kou Sha was speechless for a while. He just thought that this could not continue like this, but he didn't expect that there were so many problems in it.

"Then what should we do? We can't all wait here to die, can we?" Kou Sha's tone softened and he said.

"That's why I started to organize people recently. Let's dig it ourselves! Since there is an oasis here, it means that there is an underground river. When the water source is found, all problems will naturally be solved!" Duo Tuo sighed, Said.

In fact, he himself knows that this kind of thing is full of uncertainties, and it is completely just luck.
