Chapter 841: Discovery, Danger Approaching
For the next Mansion, Dragon repeated the same operation.
He would knock out the servants inside the Mansion, and if there were people with relatively strong strength, he would deal with them first.
After dealing with everything, Dragon began plundering the treasure.
In terms of efficiency, Dragon simply couldn't compare with Ignis.
In fact, as he became more familiar with the operation and the internal layout of various Mansions, Ignis could even guess which Areas held precious treasure.
He could directly lock onto these Areas.
As for the small amount of treasure he might miss, Ignis didn't care either.
This resulted in a significant increase in Ignis's efficiency.
By the time he had finished plundering five or six Mansions, Dragon had only just finished plundering one Celestial Dragon Mansion.
The large amount of treasure didn't make Ignis feel excited.
He had seen plenty of treasure.
Back when they stole the Heavenly Tribute, they obtained a large amount of treasure.
The Sound Nest hasn't even finished spending it all yet.
With the boom in various industries, the Sound Nest's development continued to accelerate.
Every year, they could obtain a large amount of profits.
To be honest, stealing the Celestial Dragons' Treasury didn't actually bring much help to the Sound Nest's development.
Only Devil Fruits might be somewhat useful, capable of increasing the combat power of their Subordinates.
And the Sound Nest didn't lack combat power either.
Ignis himself.
Goenitz, who hid his identity and was a Core Member of the Flying Pirates.
Powerful Clones.
Zero Garp and True Zero.
His younger brother, Abraham.
"King of Underground Fighting" Rugal.
Buckingham Sarama, who had not yet developed.
The Sound Nest possessed quite a few powerful combatants and Elite members recruited in previous years.
They were dispersed around the World, helping the Sound Nest's rapid development.
The Sound Nest had only been established for ten years, but Ignis could confidently say that the Sound Nest was already a World Top Power.
Of course, this was not the Sound Nest's limit.
Ignis's long-term plan for the Great Sea required even more ample time.
And the Sound Nest's elite combatants also had enough time for growth.
However, he was willing to weaken the World Government.
Suppressing the Celestial Dragon Family's economy.
Even suppressing the Revolutionary Army.
The Revolutionary Army posed a great threat to the World Government, and the same was true for the various Superpowers.
Since that was the case, why did the various Superpowers still need to support the Revolutionary Army's development?
And also suppress the revolution?
Because the Revolutionary Army is an important chess piece for the various Superpowers to deal with the World Government.
But they also couldn't let the Revolutionary Army develop too quickly, so suppression was needed.
More importantly, the Revolutionary Army needed to be within their control.
This was where the conflict lay.
Regarding the Revolutionary Army, some Superpowers were still very fearful.
They were afraid that if the Revolutionary Army accidentally lost control, they would raise a wolf that would bite them back.
After all, their Leader was Monkey D. Dragon, the best candidate for Fleet Admiral after Sengoku.
Therefore, it was necessary to infiltrate the Revolutionary Army as much as possible, grasp the Revolutionary Army's lifeline, and possess the ability to bring about the Revolutionary Army's downfall.
Also, to prevent the Revolutionary Army from developing too quickly, the various Superpowers only provided support through channels for some personnel, grain, and munitions.
They would not propose any suggestions regarding organization structure or revolutionary ideology.
They completely let the Revolutionary Army develop on its own.
Regarding the current Revolutionary Army, Hades still didn't think highly of them, in various aspects.
Except for having a few powerful combatants.
After the Sorbet Kingdom King was overthrown by the Revolutionary Army, the Revolutionary Army was simply unable to carry out effective political reforms for the Kingdom.
They thought changing the King would make the Kingdom better.
In reality, it simply couldn't last, and the Kingdom remained as it was before.
In terms of governing the nation, the Revolutionary Army couldn't find the problems and had no solutions.
They only knew how to resist; this had no future.
The Member Nations previously overthrown by the Revolutionary Army had now all been successfully restored with the support of the World Government.
Even those ordinary Kingdoms either changed Kings, or the entire Kingdom faced downfall, being invaded by Pirates during the Great Pirate Era and becoming a scene of chaos.
The Revolutionary Army's resistance, instead, brought greater chaos.
They were too naive.
However, this kind of Revolutionary Army was exactly the Revolutionary Army they needed.
If talent appeared who could make the Revolutionary Army develop rapidly, the various Superpowers would kill him immediately.
Using the World Government's strength, or taking action themselves.
Approximately three hours had passed since Dragon arrived at Mary Geoise.
This wasn't a long time.
Yet Dragon had only finished plundering four Mansions.
Not every Celestial Dragon Mansion had a large amount of treasure.
The internal Treasury of some Mansions where few people resided was completely empty.
Dragon unluckily encountered one such Mansion, wasting a large amount of time in vain.
And at this time, Dragon targeted the next Mansion.
Having learned from the previous lesson, this Mansion looked significantly more luxurious.
Just like before, he quietly infiltrated.
However, what he didn't know was that this Mansion bore the mark of the Ferrand Family.
Furthermore, this was the Ferrand Family's Core Mansion.
He had only been inside the Mansion for three seconds.
Inside the Mansion, a gorgeously dressed Celestial Dragon opened his eyes.
He understood his own home too well.
The change in the air's flow speed let him know that someone had secretly infiltrated.
"Is it an outsider?"
He didn't think this was someone from another Faction within Mary Geoise.
After all, everyone knew that the Ferrand Family was different from those weakened Families; it was one of the Celestial Dragon Families that absolutely could not be provoked.
Figarland Nowen Saint's figure quietly disappeared from his original spot.
He had no plan to alarm the intruder.
Anyone who dared to invade Mary Geoise at this time was definitely not weak in strength.
Most importantly, he had to protect the Family's future well.
Most of the Ferrand Family's Mansions were in this Area, and the residences of the younger Children within the Family were not far.
Only a small portion of them attended the banquet; most stayed in their own Mansions.
Compared to treasure, he valued the Family's future more.
Especially his own older brother, Garling Saint's Child, Ralph.
The Ferrand Family's strength quickly took action, taking Family Members away from the Mansion to avoid danger.
At the same time, they secretly contacted other Celestial Dragons.
The cautious Dragon didn't dare to release too much Observation Haki and didn't sense that danger was approaching him.
