The True Path of Pirates
Chapter 468 Confrontation·The Strongest
On the red earth continent, the Holy Land Marie Joa.
No matter what drastic changes occur in the outside world, there will be no ripples in the air in Mariejoia.The Tianlong people living here are enjoying the luxurious life that belongs only to them as usual.
However, for the top level of the world government, the five old stars who control the destiny of the world, the recent events have been beyond their control, and this group of people who are accustomed to controlling others and controlling everything feel extremely troubled.
In a vibrant courtyard full of all kinds of exotic flowers and plants, the Five Old Stars sat around a table and quietly looked at the documents on Table Mountain. Everyone's expressions were not very good-looking.
"Navy...Humph, I really didn't expect that guy from the Warring States Period to be very courageous."
"So I said a long time ago that there is no need for those so-called 'kings' in the navy! These guys are just born to cause trouble!"
"You can't say that. At least he did a good job in the past few decades. And that 'd' who doesn't obey discipline really needs to be controlled by Warring States."
"But this may not be bad. At least now we understand who the government's enemies are."
"You're right. Now that they've made their move, we just need to take the next step."
The five people expressed their opinions on the recent events. After venting their anger, the two people regained their composure and began to think about solutions to the problem.
"Let's end the discussion here. What is the opinion of 'that adult' above?"
"What? Have you alerted the superiors?"
"There is really nothing we can do. After all, the impact has spread. Coupled with the previous incidents, the situation is already very unfavorable to us."
The calm white-haired old man sitting among several people, who seemed to be taking the lead, finally spoke up. At the same time, he handed the manuscript paper hidden in his arms to everyone, so that everyone could take a look at it in person.
"So that's it. Is this a test for us?"
"Don't think too much, for adults, the whole world is just a 'game'. Maybe, adults are just a little tired of the peaceful world."
"Benjamin Ryden...we did underestimate him, always have. But unfortunately, he is not 'that person' after all..."
"We old guys also have to move and do it ourselves. Let's just think of it as stretching our muscles. We can no longer let the P organization do it alone."
"Well, I understand, that's it."
The five people looked at each other, then took a copy of the document from the table. After confirming that it was correct, they left the courtyard and headed towards their respective residences.
And as they left, the courtyard became quiet again.It's just a pity that such a beautiful and precious courtyard doesn't even have a dancing butterfly...
...
"The King's Shichibukai" refers to seven extremely powerful pirates. Each of them possesses extremely powerful strength, as well as terrifying rumors that make ordinary pirates change their minds.Maybe some arrogant pirates will talk behind their backs that they are the "running dogs" of the navy, but the number of pirates who dare to challenge them is always much less than those who gossip, and they have basically left the world completely.
Because of this, when several "King Shichibukai" came to the first half of the Grand Route, the pirates' dissatisfaction became more and more intense, and they cursed more and more. However, their The body is very honest and has begun to consciously move towards the fourth route.
After pirates from other routes swarmed into the fourth route, the already lively route became even more lively.
On the one hand, more intensive pirates have brought more battles, whether between pirates and pirates, or between pirates and navies, or even plunder and occupation caused by pirates, which have brought great harm to those weak countries and islands. Disaster has come.
On the other hand, pirates also brought more business opportunities, allowing countries and traders with certain strength to gain more benefits and make a lot of money.
Similarly, the islands on the fourth route also quickly "adapted" and changed their original industries one after another to obtain the wealth they plundered from this group of plunderers.The tavern industry is naturally one of the rising industries. Many powerful pirates have simply entered the "business" market and become qualified "boss".
On the fourth route, Chang Lian Chang Island, a newly opened tavern quickly filled up, and even the specially-made extra-long benches were filled with people.The pirates also drank wine and complained about the atrocities of the navy.
"Damn it, those guys from the Navy - when I recover from my injuries, I will definitely deal with them! Just wait and see!"
"Who says it's not the case? I thought that the big shots in the 'New World' would react a little bit, but I didn't expect that they didn't make any movement at all. They had a totally nonchalant attitude!"
"This is not bad. If you look at the bastards of the 'Shichibukai', they are completely 'cooperating with the tiger'. They have really become the 'lackeys' of the navy. They actually work with the navy to suppress us. They are simply a bunch of stupid dogs!"
"'Hasso the Stormtrooper,' Moriah the Moonlight', 'Tyrant' Bartholomew Bear and 'Empress' Boya Hancock!"These guys occupy four routes: 2, 6, and 7!I was living a happy life, but I had already forgotten all about the honor of being a pirate! "
"These guys are not worthy of being pirates! Brother, I toast you! For pure pirates!"
"For pure pirates! Do it!"
Pirates are the easiest profession to "satisfy" in the world, and also the least easy to "satisfy".They can be grateful for everything because of a drink, and they can also be disappointed after robbing a country... In short, they are the most selfish and greedy guys in the world, representing another kind of less pure "evil".
However, countries and islands on other routes have truly gained long-lost security. They work hard and gratefully in production, and enjoy the hard-earned "peace".As the materials produced were consumed at an accelerated rate, their income and life even became better.
And those Shichibukai seemed to have really changed their nature. They just sent their subordinates to collect protection fees that civilians could afford, and did not disturb their lives at all. This was simply "awesome"!
Just like the "opposite" of pirates who yearn for freedom, there are always a group of people in this world who like to do easy and ordinary things, get more or less reward, and "enjoy" such a peaceful life.Those in power love this kind of people the most, so if they can be more satisfied by paying a small price, the people in power will naturally not be stingy at such a small price. After all, when the work efficiency increases, the "rewards" that can be harvested "That's more!"
In this process of constant change and stability, time is also passing by, "pushing" the world forward.
In just half a year, the entire world became completely stable.Whether they are pirates, navy, civilians, or nobles, everyone has accepted this changed world.And those who cannot accept it and indulge in the "old era" all day long have also been severely beaten by the "era" and have become spectators or "silent spectators."
In the same six months, as the navy became more and more stable, the world government began to become "turbulent".
When the navy completed its rule over the first half of the Great Line, the World Government also took advantage of the limited naval force to complete its rule over the three sea areas of the East China Sea, the South China Sea, and the West China Sea.In today's three sea areas, P organization branches under the government and naval branch bases dedicated to the world government have been established one after another.
Unlike the navy, the World Government's base does not make any big moves, and it does not even have any control over the waters near the base.Gradually, the pirates and gangsters also discovered the difference between this group of "navies". It turned out that they were all just "blind men".
However, the government's purpose has indeed been achieved. Their purpose is not to manage a certain area well, or even to obtain benefits, but simply to check and balance!If the limelight is too much, the navy, which has "superior achievements", will lose the opportunity to continue to develop.
The government has many other ways to target the navy. In addition to controlling territorial boundaries, the government's "world conscription" also seems to be intended to bypass the navy.After receiving simple training, the new recruits recruited this year were directly stuffed into the "Sanhai" base and became veritable "caretakers".And those who are determined to join the navy are also secretly assigned to certain "operable" naval bases, instead of choosing independently as before.
Facing the power of the World Government, the Navy was neither humble nor overbearing, and used various methods to secretly accumulate its own strength. Since then, although the confrontation between the World Government and the Navy has not broken out, it has become a foregone conclusion.
However, except for Archie, for everyone else on the "Benjamin", the undercurrent of the first half of 53 did not have much impact on them.During the period after the Beihai War, Admiral Bai Long seemed to be recuperating and became "quiet" again.
But what is completely different from the past is that everyone on the sea firmly believes that Bailong is by no means silent, but is brewing a more terrifying storm...
On the day, month and month of the 53rd year of the Haiyuan calendar, the White Dragon Admiral's ship appeared.
"These two financial reports are from Beihai and Fishman Island respectively. I'm not very clear about it, but I asked my little sister to help with the calculation carefully. There should be no problem."
"Well, there won't be any problem with them, but I'll let Monet take a look later."
"These are the new recruits that 'Lao Ba' and the others recently recruited from various countries in the North Sea, Fishman Island and Jiuli Country. Not only are they of high quality, but there are also many good 'seedlings'. I will arrange to recruit them over after a while. "
"Leave these to Zorn, we will get busy soon."
In the captain's room of the warship, Vicky and Dadi were sitting around the table. They were drinking tea and reporting the recent situation to Ruiden.Ruiden just glanced at them briefly, then put the two important documents aside casually, looking at them with a smile.
Although Vicky has become a lieutenant general and Dadi is 3 years old, in Ruiden's eyes, neither of them seems to have changed much. They are still the same as before - a child who will never grow up, and a child who will never grow up. The uncle who is not young is really interesting.
"Get busy? What are you busy with?"
"Speaking of which, we have been quite busy, especially Archie. I haven't seen him in the past six months."
The two of them didn't notice Ruiden's playful look, or they were used to it.Relatively speaking, the "busy" in Ruiden's words attracted their attention more, and also made them feel an excitement that had been silent for a while.
"Don't worry about Archie, he'll be fine at all. As for 'busy'... After all, I've recovered from my injuries, and it's time to do some serious work."
Redon slowly stood up from his seat, his loose robe opened slightly, exposing his neck and chest.Although the mark was very faint, under the full sunlight, the large burn could still be vaguely seen, covering almost his entire body!
Vicky and Dadi also glanced at him subconsciously, and their expressions suddenly became a little heavy, as if they were thinking of what happened a few months ago.Ruiden chuckled lightly, just put the general's cloak next to the seat on his body, then took the lead and walked out of the room to look at the vast sea.
"Vicci, call on Rona, we are ready to go!"
"Huh? Is it just us? Why are you so anxious?"
"Yeah, don't you have to wait for Archie?"
The two of them quickly followed Redon's footsteps and followed him out of the room.Facing their questioning, Ruiden just raised his arm and took out a very "fresh" piece of paper so that they could see the content on it - "The banquet is about to begin"...
...
At the same time, in the waters of the "New World", the huge whale-shaped ship-"Moby Dick" is also filling up its sails and heading towards the entrance of the "New World".
Different from the past, there are only a few people on this ship that symbolizes the supreme "honor" today, but they are the strongest people from the world's strongest ship group!
The leading captains of the Whitebeard Pirates - Marco, the captain of the first team, George, the captain of the third team, Sachi, the captain of the fourth team, and Bista, the captain of the fifth team!This is the strongest combat power of the Whitebeard Pirates!
However, the faces of the captains were all ugly at this time. After much hesitation, Marco stood up and walked up to the tall figure.
"Dad! Please allow me to say one more thing. The venue for the duel is actually the Thunder Island of Radamandis. This is unreasonable in any way. This is not a fair duel at all!"
"Yes, Marco is right, think twice, Dad!"
"Dad!"
After Marco finished speaking, the other captains hurriedly walked to his side, expressing their anger and concern.But the tall man still drank the wine happily, letting the wine drip down his curved white beard.
"Gla la la la! Fair? To that kind of brat? No need! I'm - Whitebeard!"
No matter what drastic changes occur in the outside world, there will be no ripples in the air in Mariejoia.The Tianlong people living here are enjoying the luxurious life that belongs only to them as usual.
