Karakuri Island.
Mio approached the port of Meg Kingdom with the ship.
It's more convenient for Mio to not be a pirate at this time, at least he doesn't have to worry about being hunted by Marine when he lands on the island.
After getting off the boat, Mio walked ahead and Erica and Warwick followed closely behind them, and the group of three headed towards the capital of the Meg Kingdom.
This is just a border city of the Meg Kingdom, and there is still a distance from the capital of the Meg Kingdom.
Fortunately, there are vehicles in the Meg Kingdom, a kind of artificial carriage, and a special road to the capital.
It is not too slow, and it only takes half a day to reach the capital of the kingdom.
People come and go.
Some of these people are pirates and most of them are businessmen.
Although there is friction between the kingdom of Meg and the Future Country Baldimore, and war may even break out, it may be dangerous for these merchants, but there are still enough interests to drive them.
After booking an artificial carriage, the three of Mio headed for the capital.
It was almost late at night. It's time to get to the capital.
As the capital of this country, it is undoubtedly very prosperous.
Especially in this capital, people who come and go can see the nobles at a casual glance. There are several slaves beside the nobles. They are luxuriously dressed and wore gemstones and jewelry. They are treated respectfully along the way.
Although it was late at night, Mio also saw a few nobles and even ordinary people who had been made things difficult for. Seeing this made Mio couldn't help but sigh. It is no wonder that so many people have joined the revolutionary army.
It's not just because of the pirates.
...
The three found a hotel in the capital to stay.
Then Mio let Warwick out to inquire about the situation.
On the other hand, he picked up the phone in the hotel room, and after a moment of contemplation, he called Doflamingo's phone.
He needs Doflamingo to help him collect something.
Soon, the phone was connected.
Doflamingo's evil laughter came, as if he had forgotten Mio's information.
"Hey, my friend, do you want to make another deal?"
"Of course."
Mio said with a faint smile on his face, "I need two things.
One is strange insects, as long as they are special or powerful insects.
The second is Devil Fruit.
Although the latter is a bit difficult, I would like to use the Donquixote family in North Blue.
It shouldn't it be too difficult to collect a few Devil Fruits, right?"
"Insects and Devil Fruit." Hearing that, Doflamingo was a little surprised. Devil Fruit is okay, but what is the purpose of collecting insects?
But Doflamingo didn't ask much, just chuckled and answered, "Hey, of course, I will find you when I have news, but the price of Devil Fruit is not low."
"Don't worry, I can afford this little money." Mio said.
Although he may not have enough money now, he might be able to do so by then.
He still has a way to make money.
"Then let's talk again at that time." Doflamingo said with a smile, then hung up the phone.
Mio also put away the phone and sat cross-legged on the bed, waiting to get up.
Erica is also in Mio's room, but at this time she is holding a book and reading it. The content of the book is related to cooking. She is learning cooking. She reads it very seriously. She occasionally had a tangled look on her face, it seemed that she had encountered some problems.
Ten minutes later.
There was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
The door to the room was pushed open, and Warwick, wearing a black cloak, walked in. A pair of scarlet pupils were eye-catching under the cloak.
"Master, Warwick has found a place."
"Oh? Where?" Mio got up and asked with a smile.
"It's in that direction, not far." Warwick pointed in a direction, and he couldn't tell the specific place.
It happened that this time was a good time, so Mio looked at Erica and shouted, "Erica, we should go now."
"Okay, Master." Erica closed the book, put it in her pocket under her cloak, and then put on the cloak.
The three of them walked out of the hotel, led by Warwick, into the night and headed towards their destination.
The three of them were fast, and within ten minutes, they arrived at their destination. Just like Doflamingo said, this place is really easy to find, because it's right on the edge of the king's city, and there are many guards around the country, the number is at least about three hundred.
Moreover, these National Defenders are well equipped, and it is definitely impossible to make a forcible attack.
After all, although these three hundred National Defenders do not pose much of a threat to the three of Mio, once there is a disturbance, the entire capital's army may be able to do so.
When they come here, they may have to face three thousand or even thirty thousand defenders.
The three people stood on a house and blended into the night well, making them hard to notice.
Mio sat down cross-legged, staring at the guards of the country, frowned slightly, after thinking for a moment, looked at Erica, and said, "Erica, can you make some movement to attract the attention of most people in this city?"
"Yes, master." Erica nodded softly, her voice soft.
"Then I'll leave it to you." Mio smiled after receiving Erica's answer.
"Um."
Erica took off the cape draped on her head, and the pair of tentacles on her forehead began to sway slightly. Erica's eyes closed tightly, and the tentacles seemed to be sending out some information.
Seeing this, Mio couldn't help but think of one of Erica's abilities, and a look of expectation appeared in his eyes.
Soon.
Buzzing.
Buzzing.
Mio's ears trembled slightly, and he heard a small sound, like the ground shaking.
Squinting his eyes, Mio looked into the distance, his eyes flickered and surprise appeared.
Although the night was dim, Mio could still see dense black shadows attacking and pouring into the city in the distance.
That's... ant colony.
The quantity was terrifying, like a black sea, in Mio's sight, a house was swallowed in an instant and turned into nothingness.
"Erica, just make some movement, don't cause too much killing." Mio reminded.
Erica nodded in response.
Soon.
The three hundred or so National Defenders not far away also attracted attention, and calls for help began to sound all around.
The horrible number of ants swallowed almost everything passing by, but under Erica's instructions, they did not hurt anyone, otherwise an unknown number of people would die in the hands of the ants.
This is Erica's ability.
Ant king.
Can order the colony of ants.
Seeing the power of this ability at this time, Mio had to sigh, this is a very terrifying ability.
If he encounters an invincible opponent on land in the future, Erica's ability can completely reverse the situation.
After all, even Warlord-level powerhouses will have trouble when seeing the horrible number of ant colonies. If it is the type of ants on the Insect Island, even Warlord-level existence will turn around without hesitation and run away.
Only Admiral level people can ignore these and not be afraid.
