Since the events of the Great Incident, the world has thought that nothing major will happen at the end of this era of pirates.

Everyone spent this time quietly, waiting for the G11 branch of the Navy to be laid in the New World, ushering in the "first year of the Navy" in the true sense.

After all, even the "strongest" Whitebeard has sunk in the sand at the Navy Headquarters, achieving the name of Canglong, and now in the sea, there is no force that can compete with the navy and the government.

But who would have thought that less than three months after the big event, a terrible wave would quickly detonate the whole world!

Thousands of pirates frantically flocked to the intersection of the Red Earth continent represented by the Chambord Islands, bringing countless wars and deaths to the islands they passed.

It was a turmoil that amazed the whole world!

Because it is no longer a certain force or person to challenge the government, but countless pirates and careerists have joined forces to form a temporary alliance of interests against the government.

It is rare for the pirates who are attacking each other to unite and come to the end of the first half and the beginning of the second half to confront the navy that is waiting for them.

All kinds of things are made of pure gold!

At this moment, on the island near Chambord, on a pirate ship, several pirates gathered.

Chambord was blockaded by the navy, and most of the pirates camped on these islands before they were sure to do so.

"Do you say, is pure gold real? It is said that it has the value of buying the world, but why didn't you see the Golden Emperor coming? ”

"Probably, it's because he's not bad for money......"

“……”

Shut up if you can't chat!!

"Speaking of which, I've heard something different."

"Oh? What is it? ”

"Did you notice? The guys who passed us two days ago are not pirates...... So I went out to inquire and found out that everyone had actually been deceived! ”

"What? Pure gold is fake!! ”

"What's the hurry, I haven't finished yet!"

The man rolled his eyes impatiently and said, "What I want to say is that in fact, the greatest value of pure gold is not whether it is worth it or not, but that it can make people immortal!" ”

"Eternal life...... Immortal?!! Really? ”

"Of course it's true, otherwise how could those big guys make a move? Although they are not as good as the Golden Emperor, they are not short of money! ”

"No wonder I always think some guys don't look like pirates, I see!"

As the turmoil intensified, the "true value" of pure gold gradually spread to the entire group of pirates, although some people suspected that someone was playing tricks on them and deliberately stimulating them, but more people believed that it was real.

Otherwise, it is not clear why all the world's famous bigwigs have sent people this time?

The World Government, as the holder, is well aware of this, and pure gold does have that function.

But they simply can't compromise because of the threat of a pack of hyenas.

The two sides were in a stalemate in the waters around Chambord, relying on Marin Fodo to build a defensive circle and prepare for a big battle.

……

New World, near Isle of Thor.

"It's really a big deal!"

Ron put down the phone bug and said to the lieutenant generals, "The marshal informed me just now that more than 13,000 pirates have gathered on the outskirts of Chambord Land, ready to take it. ”

"Shhh...... So much?! ”

The flying squirrel and the others widened their eyes.

On the way back, the Demon Slayer ordered the fleet to take on the main escort duty, and the pirates who dared to peep along the way were all destroyed under naval fire.

But compared to the pirate group gathered in the first half of the moment, the attacks they encountered were only a drop in the bucket, and they were not worth mentioning.

"Not only that, but there are also more than three thousand unknown groups joining in, faintly showing hostility."

Ron continued.

"This is a huge battle that has twice as many participants as in the last New World War and the top war combined!"

"The headquarters has been dispatched with the whole army to cooperate with the air commander to build a defensive circle around Chambord...... As you know, once those guys are red-eyed, it's not impossible to kill the holy land along the bubble elevator. ”

"So what do we do? Ron. ”

The flying squirrel said solemnly: "With your ability, you should be able to leave with pure gold, right?" ”

Pure gold must not be allowed to fall into the hands of pirates!

This is no longer simply a battle for treasure, but an authoritative issue of the face of the government and the navy.

If they choose to compromise this time because of the collective rebellion of the pirates, then all the efforts and sacrifices they have put in before will be in vain.

"It's possible, but it's critical...... It depends on how the five old stars choose. ”

Ron smoked his cigar silently and looked up in the direction of the Red Earth.

……

At the same time, the "Holy Land" Mary Joy, the room where the five old stars are located.

"These bastards dare to threaten us?!!"

The five old swordsmen were furious and threw the documents in their hands all over the ground.

It was an agreement written by the giants of the dark world, who were unwilling to fight the government to the end, but they would not let go of pure gold easily.

So they offered to exchange the benefits.

You don't need all of them, just a few of them.

We are willing to give all kinds of benefits in exchange, and it doesn't matter if we bow down, otherwise ...... Since you want us to die, don't think about it!

This is the usual coercion tactic of the dark world.

Only this time, the target they set their sights on was the world government that ruled the world, and the crown that would remain eternal for 800 years!

The Five Old Stars were furious because of this.

I can only sigh that the temptation of pure gold is too great for those old guys!

The big ones dare to take risks and threaten the government, and the big ones dare to make deals with the five old stars.

It is only when man is faced with death that he realizes how much he desires to live.

Especially for those who are in high power, there are also rights, wealth, status, and so on that they can't let go.

This is the reason why Rob Lucci gave up on continuing to look for pure gold in the original book.

Because he clearly understands that although the world government is the nominal "ruler of the world", its authority comes entirely from the unshakable combat power of the "Holy Land".

Their deterrent power throughout the world is radiated from the Red Earth Continent by the Navy Headquarters and the huge combat force corps of the Holy Land.

However, in such a large area of the world, there is not much left of this deterrent out of the great shipping route.

Positions like the Four Seas can only be maintained by the naval branch at most.

For many places, it is beyond the reach of some whips.

So, this makes the sea full of various forces that support the army and respect themselves, and the five old stars are helpless about it, as long as they don't touch the red line, they can turn a blind eye, which is equivalent to dividing the princes and going their own way.

If these giants know that pure gold is in existence, the rebellion of the princes is enough to upset the balance of the world!

Same with Lucky.

Outsiders only saw the strength of the government and the unprecedented strength of the navy, but Ron saw the most deadly problem of the world government from the era of pirates caused by Roger.

That is, the centralization is unstable!

Their dominance is not recognized by the whole world, both non-member and non-member countries.

Some of the fringe areas even go so far as to know only who the king of the island is, but not the existence of a world government.

Like the Qin Shi Huang period he knew, it seemed to be in power, but in fact, the binding force on the local area was negligible.

In addition, the inhumane harsh government system of heavenly gold has increased the probability of civil rebellion.

Otherwise, where would so many pirates go to sea?

If the centralization of power is stable and the people live and work in peace and contentment, I am afraid that if someone wants to go to sea, they will be tied up by their families and surrendered as soon as possible.

A good hand plays like this.

In this regard, Ron can only say that he deserves it!

Roger's era of pirates aroused the common people's yearning for freedom, allowing ambition to break the shackles of fear that shackled them and made them dare to confront the authority of government.

Ron only needed to light a fire to make this wave of rebellion take root...... And pure gold is the flame he chose.
