East China Sea.

Somewhere on the sea, a small sailboat was sailing downwind, and six men were sitting on board.

"Are you really planning to go on the Great Voyage with five people?"

Sanji took a puff of his cigarette and looked sideways at Luffy to the side.

Luffy stretched and grinned, "Ah, I really want to bring Nami back quickly and then leave immediately." ”

"Don't look down on the sea so much."

Sanji retracted his gaze, although he didn't know much about the Great Route, but compared to Luffy, who had a tendon, he still knew very well the terrifyingness there.

Luffy held his chin and said, "If you have all the partners, it's no problem to go to the Great Voyage, because it's a paradise." ”

"Paradise? It's a pirate grave. ”

Sanji strange way.

Luffy smiled and said, "Uncle Boss told me when I left the restaurant, and some people call the Great Route a paradise!" ”

Just as Luffy was laughing, there was a somewhat terrifying voice from Zoro's little brother Johnny next to him, "You guys are so naïve!" Big brothers! ”

Johnny had a trace of sweat on his forehead, and looked at Luffy and the others with great solemnity: "Big brothers, I don't know much about the Great Voyage, so let's just say that this time, if you know this aspect, Big Brother Zoro will definitely come back with us!" ”

"It's time to eat, so let's do it."

Luffy stretched and ignored Johnny's words.

Johnny glared, "Listen to me!" ”

"Do you know why the Great Voyage is called the Pirate Grave? Because there are three major forces there, and one of them is ...... Your Majesty's Seven Martial Seas! ”

"Seven Martial Seas?"

When Luffy and the others heard this, they couldn't help but look over.

Johnny held up a finger and said with great seriousness: "That's right, it is the seven pirates recognized by the World Government, the Seven Martial Seas are engaged in plundering the vassal countries and other pirates that are not under the World Government Alliance, although they are called the lackeys of the World Government, they are very strong!" ”

"The Eagle Eye that defeated Brother Zoro is one of the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty!"

Zoro leaned against the edge of the ship's plank, his eyes flickering slightly.

It hadn't been long since his injuries had been treated, but because his vitality was strong enough, a shallow layer of scabs had formed under the bandage.

"Are there still six people as strong as that Hawkeye?!"

Usopp was startled, and couldn't help but show a hint of horror.

A trace of sweat overflowed on Johnny's forehead, and he said, "This is just one of the three major forces, and the other of the three major forces is the Navy Headquarters!" ”

Everyone present had dealt with the navy to a greater or lesser extent, and Luffy had also fallen out with a naval colonel with Zoro before, so he was not too surprised to hear this.

Johnny looked at Luffy and the others, took a deep breath, and said with an extremely depressed expression:

"And in addition to the Seven Martial Seas and the Navy, the third remaining force is ...... Four Emperors! ”

Johnny, who is a pirate hunter by profession, is undoubtedly much more professional than Zoro, who became a pirate hunter halfway to make money and eat because he got lost and had no money, and has a lot of knowledge about the major forces and pirates from all walks of life.

"Four Emperors?"

Sanji let out a puff of smoke.

Johnny said in a deep voice: "That's right, those are the four most terrible pirates in the world, even the world government and navy have nothing to do with them, and the people who provoke them without exception all end miserably." ”

"Their power is so great that they can rule a sea area, like emperors, so they are called the Four Emperors!"

"It's amazing."

When Luffy heard Johnny's words, he couldn't help but be a little excited, and said, "It's decided, we'll set off as soon as we get Nami back!" ”

Burst!

Johnny almost spurts out a mouthful of old blood, and he wants to pick open Luffy's head to see what's inside.

"Hey, hey! Do you know how terrifying the Four Emperors are? That Kaido legend has an immortal body, and that ghost hand, and his strength is recognized as the strongest in the world......"

"Eat, eat!"

Luffy didn't pay attention to Johnny's words, stood up a little excitedly, and walked to the cabin, while Zoro and the others took a look and followed into the cabin.

……

This is the village of Cocosia in the northwestern part of the East China Sea, and Nami's hometown, which is currently ruled by the fish-man Aaron.

In the wind and sunshine, a small sailboat slowly sailed towards the island.

In the boat, two figures sat facing each other, one holding a wooden staff with his eyes closed and two scars on his eyes, while the other was flat and leaning against the side of the boat.

"Well, it doesn't seem to be too late, there hasn't been an attack yet."

Getting closer and closer to the island, Rhodes stood up and looked in the direction of Cocosia Village from a distance, and when he saw and heard it, he easily judged that this place had not been attacked by fierce beasts.

Due to the large scope of the East China Sea, even though the Golden Lion raised the banner of the 'Flying Pirates' and recruited a large number of pirates to join, it was still not enough for his slaughter plan to cover the entire East China Sea.

The attack of the mutant beasts started from the southwest of the East China Sea, and this Cocosia village is a sea area in the northwest.

The Golden Lion's plan is to create terror through massacres to intimidate the world government and rule the entire East China Sea before expanding to other seas.

And Rhodes knew from various intelligence that a sea area not far from Cocosia Village had fallen, and Cocosia Village was likely to be the next target of the Golden Lion.

The golden lion flew in the sky, and no one could find where the others were, but since he was going to attack, it was impossible for him to hide in the sky all the time, and he still had to come out after all.

Rhodes doesn't plan to run into the sky to find a mess, since the Golden Lion's plan is to rule the East China Sea, and this Cocosia Village is already the next target, just need to wait here for the rabbit.

"The government and navy should also know about the intelligence we have obtained."

Fujitora sat on the side of the ship, holding the staff knife in his hand and slowly spoke.

Rhodes said indifferently: "It's okay to know, I only plan to settle an old account with the golden lion this time, if they dare to come over and make trouble...... Then pack it all together. ”

Speaking of this, a faint edge flashed in Rhodes's eyes, which belonged to the Four Emperors and belonged to the domineering of the strongest in the world.

What about the Seven Martial Seas, and what about the Admiral?

He wants to settle accounts with the golden lion, and whoever dares to meddle in will clean up together!

"It's still as domineering as ever."

Fuji Tiger smiled.

He didn't know very well the contradiction between Rhodes and the Golden Lion, but just looking at Rhodes' attitude, he knew that it must be a mortal enemy, and there was no need to ask the reason at all.

Moreover, the large-scale massacre of the golden lion in the East China Sea and the terror also made Fuji Tiger unhappy, so he learned that Rhodes was going to the East China Sea and asked him to follow, so he came immediately.

"Hmm...... Well? ”

Rhodes smiled, and his domineering spirit dissipated instantly, but at this time, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a ship appearing on the sea in the distance, and couldn't help but be slightly surprised.

That ship is...... The Golden Merry?
