The situation in the new world is unpredictable.

Under the leadership of Akainu, the navy attacked in four directions, swept in all directions, and even the famous sea thief "Hungry Wolf" Deng Laben was killed on the spot, and the Thunder Army shook the whole world.

This made the pirates of the New World deeply understand a truth.

Your uncle is still your uncle.

Although the navy was defeated twice in a row at the hands of Rhodes, and even the marshal was defeated on the spot, its huge size and terrifying lineup were incomparable to any force.

walked a green pheasant, came the green bull and the vine tiger, even if it is not the old Warring States Karp, there are still four peak combat powers such as the red dog and the yellow ape, and the peach rabbit and the tea dolphin are not easy to mess with!

And what's even more terrifying than that.

The navy did not rush forward with merit, but made steady progress and worked step by step.

They built one steely fortress after another, subdued neutral islands, and created supply points, demonstrating an organization that the pirate warlords simply couldn't match.

"The storm is coming......"

A sea thief muttered softly, his gaze on distant Dressrosa.

Because everyone knows that once the red dog gains a foothold in the new world, the first one to encircle and suppress will inevitably be the dragon slaying sword.

This is not only because the Dragon Slayer Sword Hao has repeatedly provoked the Navy and the World Government, but also because the Dragon Slayer Sword Hao is still just an emerging force, whether it is military strength, allies and connections, etc., it is far from the Four Emperors.

Even in addition to the strength of the Dragon Slayer Sword Hao himself, Dressrosa can't even match the Blackbeard Pirates, and the location close to the front end of the New World is also one of the reasons!

And Dressrosa at this time.

The highest point in the King's Heights.

Facing the rising sun, Rhodes glowed with a golden glow, which was not only the brilliance of the sun, but also the light of the power of faith.

The two fused together, making Rod's not tall figure, look like a giant standing up to the sky from a distance, so that the people of nearby Dressrosa were in awe.

"Whew."

After a long time, Rod slowly opened his eyes and exhaled.

This breath rushed out like an arrow, stretching for tens of meters, making a hissing sound in the void, as if shooting through the air.

"Armed ......"

Rod slowly stretched out his palm, and as soon as his mind moved, a large amount of armed color domineering appeared and attached to his palm.

It can be seen that the improved armament color is black and inconspicuous, but it has a molten sense of flow, which is very strong.

"This state should be a step stronger than Zhiping, and it is very close to the peak level of armed color domineering."

Rod clenched his fists and felt the armed color of his palm, revealing a hint of thought.

In the battle of Punk Hazard, the power of faith gained was a lot, but it was not enough, and it was not enough to evolve the body to the next stage, so Rhodes used it to strengthen the armament color.

Reining in his domineering armament, Rhodes slowly got up and looked into the distance with his hands in his hands.

From his point of view, Dressrosa is almost all under his feet, and there is a sense of detachment that he has everything under control and overlooks everything.

He lowered his gaze slightly and looked at Dressrosa.

With Rhodes' defeat of Akainu, his prestige was shattered, and Dressrosa's underground trading market gradually recovered and became hot.

In this troubled world, the most important thing for transactions is to have a secure and strong enough intermediary.

Previously, the Don Quixote family relied on Doflamingo's status as a Draconian.

And Rhodes relied on his Megatron strength and prestige.

As for the threat of the Navy, those who are engaged in underground trading, will not care.

Of course.

Rhodes also set several bottom lines, such as prohibiting the slave trade.

With these merchants coming and going, Dressrosa's economic situation has risen dramatically, and the people's faces are full of smiles and relaxation, and they are living and working in peace and contentment.

Pity.

They don't know what kind of crisis Dressrosa is about to face.

Rhodes shook his head inwardly and turned his gaze slightly, looking at the sea in the distance.

"Navy ......"

He muttered softly, and a little urgency rose in his heart.

The power of the navy is too huge, holding high the banner of justice and backed by the world government, the power it has is that even the Four Emperor Pirates can barely resist.

Once Akainu finishes sorting out the Navy Headquarters, Dressrosa is bound to face the biggest challenge.

If you face the challenge of the navy with the current strength and power, there is almost no second outcome except defeat and flight.

The deployment of the combat power of the first marshal and the three generals is not at all something that Rhodes' side can resist, let alone the old opponent CP0, who is very likely to participate.

"If you are an ordinary person, in the face of this kind of situation, I am afraid there is nothing you can do at all. And my words, it seems, can still struggle a little? ”

Rod smiled slightly, bitter and happy.

It's not a question of self-confidence or not, but a clear understanding of oneself and the gap in power.

If Karp Sengoku also comes, it would be better for him to open the door as soon as possible.

"No wonder Blackbeard did not hesitate to risk entering the Advance City, but also to gather a large number of partners, without enough strong subordinates, it is impossible to deal with a strong navy."

Advancing City is not easy to break into, Magellan's strength is extremely strong, and the ability of the poisonous fruit is even more effective in a sealed environment like Advance City, and the Blackbeard Pirates in the original book were almost wiped out.

But there is a lot of risk, and there is a lot of benefit.

If it weren't for Rhodes, Blackbeard would have almost become the biggest winner of the Top-Up War with those partners, and later replaced the Whitebeard Pirates as the new Four Emperors.

"What's the solution?"

Expanding power is nothing more than cultivating and soliciting.

It's obviously too late to cultivate.

Can only solicit.

There are too few peak powerhouses in the field, and they have been swept up by the world's conscription, and the rest are even rarer, and they may not necessarily join if they are found.

Then you can only settle for the next best thing and recruit some special combat forces.

"Fur Clan, Giant Clan......"

……

A few days later, the Royal Palace of Dressrosa.

Rhodes is receiving an unexpected guest.

"Giggs, it's not a smart man's choice to take refuge in me now."

The person who came was the original owner of Aurora Island, Giggs, a scientist who studied explosives.

The magnetic bomb he developed was very powerful, more than several times more powerful than ordinary explosives.

"Sending charcoal in the snow is better than icing on the cake."

Giggs's eyes were calm, but his heart was quite helpless.

Aurora Island is near the entrance of the new world, not far from the Navy Headquarters, and has a lot of resources, so it is of course one of the targets of the Navy.

Giggs was forced to flee, gritted his teeth, and simply went straight to Rhodes.

He felt that Rhodes, a mysterious man, should not be easily defeated by the navy and had a great future.

“……”

Rod knew it, but he didn't debunk him, but just smiled and said: "In this case, go to the scientific research department to report, I will provide you with enough scientific research funds." ”

The addition of Ryan Giggs was a bonus.

It also allowed Rhodes to find another direction to expand his power.

Technology!
