The Great Pirate Era.
The great seas surge and churn, powerhouses destroy and annihilate, each fighting their own battles. It's utterly—
Demotivating!
I, Russil Kuro, age tw...
The chaos on the high seas is escalating, and battles between the navy and pirates are becoming more frequent. In the New World, on the Grand Line, and across the four seas, battles are taking place every moment.
The New World lost two of the new Four Emperors, while the Navy suffered a defeat at the hands of Akainu. Neither side was satisfied with the outcome and both wanted to prove that they were the stronger one, leading to an escalation of the battle.
And throughout the entire ocean, wherever there was power, a group of strange people arrived.
They clamored to overthrow the nobles and kings who were bad to the people, appearing on every island in varying numbers, and started wars. Most of them appeared on the battlefields where the revolutionary army was located, helping them fight against the royal army and the CP.
It's said that... it's called something like "regiment", but nobody in the sea cares; most people think it's the work of the revolutionary army.
The revolutionary army has revealed their true colors!
As the sea grew increasingly chaotic, a major piece of news spread throughout the ocean.
Red-Haired Shanks is about to be executed by the new Marshal Golden Lion!
Execution?!
Is the last of the Four Emperors finally going to be brought up to enhance his prestige when he first took office as Marshal?
If Shanks is to be executed, does that mean the Red-Haired Pirates will have to go all out and fight the Navy?
But does the Red-Haired Pirates still have that ability now? Their captain has been captured.
The news wasn't as sensational as the chaos at sea; it was just something to hear. Most people are now involved in the war and don't have time to care about such things.
The new headquarters was now completely empty. All the people living there had been evacuated, and the numerous ships that had been docked there had also left. Not only this place, but all inhabited areas around the headquarters had been forcibly evacuated, causing the surrounding seas to gradually become less populated.
The two large archways of the new headquarters were forcibly demolished, turning the area into a giant plaza. A steel execution platform is currently under construction in the plaza and is still incomplete.
At the port, some naval personnel were on high alert, seemingly welcoming someone.
These naval personnel were not from headquarters; their uniforms bore the insignia of a milky-white shield on the chest, and they stood there expressionless. In contrast, some naval officers were stationed at the front.
The headquarters still needs people to handle affairs for the time being. These officers haven't left yet, and they are also responsible for reception work.
Welcoming the arrival of the Seven Warlords of the Sea...
A large warship sailed in from the sea and docked at the port.
"Miss Tina, these are our flowers!"
After a group of sailors came down, Zango and Finbot, both wearing heart-shaped sunglasses, each held a bouquet of flowers and ran up to Tina, who had just come down, and said in unison.
"unnecessary."
Tina ignored them and said indifferently, "Throw away the flowers, Tina doesn't need them."
Black lines appeared on Zango and Finbodi's bodies, and they stood there, bent over, frozen.
"Haha, these two navy guys are really interesting."
A voice came from behind Tina, and a half-fish man with a long mustache walked over with a polite smile and said, "Miss Tina, your subordinates are quite interesting."
“You can call me Lieutenant General Tina, Joe Rudolph. Alright, you’re at headquarters now.” Tina crossed her arms, moved the cigarette dangling from her mouth, and exhaled a puff of smoke.
"Alright, Lieutenant General Tina, then I won't bother you any longer."
Rudolf placed his hand on his chest, bowed to Tina, and walked towards the headquarters building.
Tina watched his retreating figure, shook her head, and murmured, "This is the last one too, is it really okay...?"
The Seven Warlords of the Sea, as forces under Clow Reed's command, were naturally also summoned this time.
Kuro gave them two choices: either come alone, or bring their men along. Of course, it didn't matter if they lived or died; there weren't so many concerns on the battlefield.
The Seven Warlords of the Sea reacted differently, but they all agreed to come.
Tina's task was to pick up Rudolph, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.
Guided by the other naval officers, Rudolf entered the headquarters building and soon arrived at a large hall. In the hall, there was a huge round table with naval officers standing by. They were all somewhat nervous, and some even had sweat on their foreheads.
Several people were sitting around the round table.
A man with slicked-back hair, a stitched scar on his nose, and a gloomy face was biting a cigar and swirling a glass of wine in his hand.
'The Emperor of the Desert' Shah Crocodile.
On the other side was a man with his legs crossed, wearing high heels, and a scarf around his neck that covered his mouth.
Those slightly upward-slanting eyes were filled with indifference.
Charlotte Katakuri, the current captain of the Big Mom Pirates.
Next to Katakuri sat an elegant woman, upright but far from the table, seemingly unwilling to sit with them. Her face was full of disdain and arrogance, yet she was an incredibly beautiful woman who made it impossible to be angry with her. She wore a long robe that was almost slit from the waist, revealing her slender legs. Her graceful posture was captivating.
Empress, Boa Hancock.
Meanwhile, on the other side, a big red-nosed man was stuffing himself with food. When he saw Rudolf's gaze, the red-nosed man looked up, chewing his food while grinning maliciously at him.
A thousand taels of silver, Pakistan.
And there was the man wearing a napkin, cutting his steak in a perfectly normal way.
White Admiral, Sam William.
And there was the man sitting at the round table, legs crossed, his hat covering the upper half of his face, seemingly resting, and the extremely long black knife beside him.
Hawkeye, the world's number one... second greatest swordsman, Jorakeel Mihawk.
"Looks like I'm the last one."
Rudolf smiled, found a seat at the round table, and said to the navy officer standing beside him, "Could you please give me a bottle of rum?"
“I’m not late, after all, the person in charge hasn’t arrived yet.” William smiled at him.
"ah..."
Rudolf nodded, glanced at them again, and said, "General Jinni... no, he's marshal now, hasn't he arrived yet?"
“He won’t wait for us; we should be waiting for him,” Katakuri said calmly.
"whispering sound..."
Hancock scoffed in annoyance, subconsciously biting her thumb. "Hasn't that man arrived yet? I have so many questions to ask him!"
Upon hearing this, Mihawk slightly raised his head but remained silent.
Bucky paused for a moment while eating, then buried his face even lower.
At the round table, some were eating, some were posing, and a strange silence fell over them.
"Oh, everyone's here."
It wasn't until a voice rang out that everyone started moving again. William and Rudolph turned around and saw a man gradually walking out from another corner of the hall.
The man, dressed in a gold suit and wearing a navy cloak that was much larger than before, walked toward the round table and said, "I thought some of you wouldn't come."
The current Admiral of the Navy, Jin Ni.
