The sunlight shakes as the air fluctuates, creating a dazzling flash of scales that fades as the air calms down. In the dark clouds of rolling smoke and dust, mud and gravel fell, and the figures of the two confrontations gradually became clear.

“......”

The red-haired gaze flickered as the smoke and dust dispersed, and there was no other expression on his face except for concentration, and he slowly lowered the arm holding the sword, his fingers rotated the hilt, and the blade flickered and fell into the scabbard with a "bang".

"Aren't you going to fight?"

The black-haired knight stared at him intently, his voice revealing a bit of unfinished business.

"The battle between us is indistinguishable in a short period of time. ”

The redhead shook his head, glanced at the bluestone castle in the rear, and quickly returned to Blackbeard's body, speaking in a calm and calm voice:

"I heard that you and Whitebeard joined forces to integrate each other's markets, and also created your own manufacturing industry, driving out the middlemen who were knocking on the bone and sucking the marrow. As a human in the uncharted zone, I'm genuinely glad for what you've done, but as the captain of the Red-Haired Pirates, you do make me feel threatened. ”

"Threat?"

Yalei just smiled and said disapprerovingly, "You're too worried, personally, I'm very welcome to have you join us." ”

"After I join, it won't be okay if that guy Kaido doesn't join, right?"

The corners of the redhead's mouth turned up slightly, and a smile bloomed on his face, but there was a sharp glint like a needle in his eyes: "And then, Blackbeard...... Now that you've integrated the uncharted market, what's next?"

"What's next?"

The black-haired knight restrained his smile, his deep eyes were bottomless, and he slowly spread his hands:

"Yes, of course...... Go with the flow. ”

"Your going with the flow makes me feel uneasy. The redhead narrowed his eyes, straightened the tip of his nose and sniffed the air in front of him, and sighed softly:

"The air here smells of ambition. ”

"Your sense of smell is very acute. ”

Yalei stared at the other man with a slight gaze, and he began to realize that he seemed to underestimate the acuity of the person in front of him.

"You're also very honest. ”

The redhead continued to stare at him, and his gentle voice suddenly became very harsh:

"If you think that you can annex the uncharted sea in this way, you are going astray, and once the pirates fight among themselves, it will inevitably cause the undead and sea demons to peep...... By that time, you will have nothing left!"

"Looks like you don't understand what I mean. ”

The black-haired knight waved his hand, a confident smile on his face:

"A unified market, a unified voice, and a unified power don't have to fight to the death. We can keep the current line-up, we just need to make a little bit of a change to create a platform for each other to work together. ”

"What do you mean?" a hint of doubt flashed in the redhead's eyes.

"The Pirate Council. ”

Yalei looked at the other party's expression, and said directly to the point:

"We can form an authoritative government and work together to govern the Uncharted, and you, me, Kaido, and Whitebeard will have equal rights to issue decrees through consultation. This is the general trend of the uncharted, the threat of the undead is increasing day by day, and if we don't unite, we will be defeated by each one day. ”

“......”

The redhead lowered his gaze silently, was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked, "Four people, this delicate number of equal strength, don't you think there will be endless ruffles?"

"As long as we are united, the number of seats can be increased at any time. ”

The black-haired knight said without hesitation: "Even if it is an endless fight, it is better than the current state of being divided, at least in the face of the crisis, we can integrate our forces in time." ”

The red-haired gaze flickered slightly, staring at a stone under his feet, and suddenly chuckled:

"I have to admit it...... This is the best way for Kaido and me to get out of our current predicament, but ......"

Before he could finish his words, he raised his head like lightning and cast his gaze in the direction of Bluestone Castle. There, a huge and majestic wave of life swept out like a violent tsunami, and the birds and sea beasts within a radius of ten miles scrambled to flee from their nests as if they were going berserk.

......

A tall, strong man in leather armor with an angular face led Aree and the redhead into the inner courtyard of the castle, and then knocked on the bronze door of the fence gate.

In the short waiting time, the black-haired knight clearly felt an extraordinary wave of life, like magma rolling deep in the center of the earth, as if it could tear the earth apart at any time and incinerate everything.

Soon, the door opened, and Are's eyes flashed with anticipation, and he walked into the inner courtyard side by side with the redhead.

Then, they meet Whitebeard, a sea thief who is completely different from the usual!

He stood under a towering pine tree, his tall back casting darkness on the ground, and although he did not show any hostility, the huge life fluctuations still threatened the grass and trees of the courtyard, making him bow his head unnaturally.

Whitebeard's face was full of concentration, and although the short hair under the black turban was gray, it was like his own body, exuding a vigor that did not match his age.

Hearing that the comer was approaching, the sea thief turned his head and cast his gaze on the redhead. And this line of sight is so sharp that it can almost stab blood, making the other party have the illusion of a sharp sword sashimi.

"Redhead, I was a little surprised by your visit today. Whitebeard opened his mouth, revealing neat white teeth, his voice was full of anger, and his words were calm and powerful, not at all like a seventy-year-old man.

Looking at the sea thief with a strong and arrogant breath of life, the red-haired almost doubted his own perception, forcibly suppressed the surprise in his heart, and said in a plain tone:

"I'm just curious about the rumors that you've teamed up with Blackbeard, and I can't help but come and see for myself. ”

"Gooha!"

The sea thief raised his head and laughed, and the kind of stinging gaze shifted to the other party: "When you were outside just now, you have already met Blackbeard, right, what is the result of the discussion?"

“......”

The red-haired brows tightened, feeling an aggressive momentum from the other party, his eyes glanced at the smiling and silent blackbeard, and let out a heavy sigh of relief:

"I'm willing to join you. ”

"Haha!"

"Gooha!"

Blackbeard and Whitebeard looked at each other and smiled at the same time, and the whole castle shuddered with a deafening laughter that made the whole castle tremble slightly.

On this day, thanks to the addition of red hair, the trend of economic consolidation in Uncharted became irresistible. Soon after the news of the triumvirate alliance spread, Kaido, the last powerful monster, had to announce that he had joined the Pirate Council a few days later.

Since then, the markets of Uncharted have been completely integrated, and the initial economic integration has been completed. (To be continued.) )
