After the inauguration ceremony, the first joint meeting of pirates kicked off, although the pirates were not in shape, but Yalei still hoped that the meeting would be formal, at least not like a troublemaking rally. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In order to get off to a good start and show off the majesty of the commander-in-chief, the black-haired knight and his friends put together three plans to raise the level of the meeting.

First of all, personal hygiene, the participants of the meeting, regardless of men, women, old and children, even if they jump into the sea, must wash themselves clean, and never allow pirates with dirty whips, foul smells, and fleas in their clothes to enter.

It's just that there are only a few pirates who pay attention to personal hygiene after all, and if you want them to be obedient, you still have to pull the tiger skin banner.

They thought about it, and the only thing that could make this rabble obey was the Pirate Code.

So, after careful study by a group of "Codex scholars", they successfully extracted the meeting etiquette set by Captain Jack that year, and made this series of research results public.

Captain Jack's exact words in the Codex are - you need to keep your ears up and listen carefully when the captain speaks, and if you feel sleepy, wash your face, otherwise Lao Tzu will break your legs.

After word-for-word scrutiny and careful study by "Codex scholars", the translation is as follows:

When the admiral and captain give a formal speech or lecture, the pirates must abide by etiquette and bathe their bodies with water beforehand, otherwise they will be punished according to the regulations.

Of course, in the public version of the proclamation, there is only a translation and not the original version, at least in Yare, they have no problem seeing the tiger skin.

After comparing the known version with the original version passed down by word of mouth, the pirates subconsciously felt that the translated version was more reliable.

Captain Jack, who wrote the pirate code in their hearts, left behind a legacy of treasures, and laid the foundation of mankind in the uncharted seas, is a solemn and wise legislator, a cruel and ruthless pioneer, and an immortal legend admired by all pirates.

Of course, the laws formulated by his old man are very high, and the reason why he has become so "popular" here must be that there must be a mistake in the translation of the code passed down by word of mouth!

Captain Jack, who has a majestic and tall image, should be the translated version of this style when he speaks, Blackbeard, the first commander of the Combined Fleet, not to mention anything else, has a good eye.

So the pirates were forced to take a bath in their own clothes.

The second is the personal attire, which, in Yare's view, is a big surprise for such a serious, solemn historic occasion to get into a bunch of colorful and fancy dresses.

However, pirates just like fancy dresses, especially slightly famous pirate leaders, if you don't be maverick, you will be looked down upon by your peers.

In order to deal with their thoughts, the black-haired knight and his friends turned up the "Pirate Code" without saying a word.

The "Codex Scholars" lived up to expectations, and after tireless research, they finally found Captain Jack's exact words about the dress code for the meeting in the Pirate Codex.

Jack's exact words on the ship were as follows - we are pirates, and we can do whatever we want at sea, but on land, especially when we get together, it is better to dress modestly, otherwise we may risk going to prison.

In fact, the original scene of this passage is when Captain Jack took his younger brothers ashore to prostitute himself, in order not to attract the attention of the strip, he secretly instructed everyone.

Although this phrase did not have any special meaning at the time, or even just a casual remark, this did not prevent the loyal flocks of legendary pirates from recording it.

When they arrived at Yalei, they naturally had to combine Captain Jack's majestic image and a little bit of their own political needs to carry out a series of goodwill packaging.

The translation is as follows:

Ceremonies such as gatherings, alliances, and elections of pirates are very important, and whether the venue is at sea or on land has a completely different meaning. Land gatherings are solemn and sacred, all people should choose a plain and upright attire, and those who violate the rules and regulations should be punished by detention.

As for what to wear, Yalei also has a unified standard - a white formal dress with the logo of justice embroidered on the back.

After the pirates accepted the first decree, it was easy to accept the second decree, and anyway, the pirate council uniformly issued uniforms without spending a penny of their own money.

Finally, there is the issue of discipline in the meeting, although the black-haired knights are not very demanding, they are only asked not to make trouble, and they can line up in order to enter and exit.

But it is difficult to achieve such a goal alone, who does not have three or five enemies and one or two rivals among the pirates in the uncharted sea?

In the event that two people meet and get into a fight, and then call friends, help, and release a cloud-piercing arrow or something, it is not delusional that a historic meeting will become a big scuffle.

How to solve it?

Yalei and his little friends thought about it and opened the Pirate Code again.

The "Codex Scholars" were as powerful as ever, and after their meticulous deliberation, Captain Jack's "golden words" hidden in the Codex were once again revealed.

Captain Jack's exact words are like this - the sail mast is aligned, it will boost your morale, and at the same time inflict invisible oppression on the enemy, and we need to keep it that way as much as possible. Whoever breaks the formation will be punished, and I will whip them until they are silent.

This quote was originally a quote from the experience of the legendary pirate in the sea battle, telling his subordinates the importance of fleet formation and how to deal with fools who can't sail ships.

But now, after careful analysis by scholars, it has become the decisive evidence of his emphasis on the importance of order.

The new translations are as follows:

All pirates should keep this in mind, as sinners who disturb the order of major occasions and create panic and chaos will be whipped to death.

Captain Jack's tiger skin, coupled with the title of commander of the Combined Fleet, combined with the strength and achievements of the Blackbeard Pirates, the powerful majesty of the three fermented together effectively curbed the discontent of the pirates. Even if they are dissatisfied, under the suppression of righteousness and law, they can only remember this life-threatening decree with their hearts.

......

The first joint meeting of the pirates was held in a rotunda on the top floor of the House of Commons, and was entirely made of marble and paved with inlaid stones. The space is large and tall, the entrance and exit passages are with round arches, and the outer wall of the hall is a large circle, divided into four floors, and you have to look up to see the top. The lower three floors are all one-color round arches and columns, surrounded by layers of stands, arranged all the way to the top, and the upper floor has only small rectangular windows and flutes.

There are murals, statues, and utensils of the highest standard.

This simple contrast makes people feel that this building is a whole piece, and invisibly renders the atmosphere of "unity", "union" and "strength".

Of course, the vast majority of pirates don't have this artistic cell, and for them there are only three impressions here--the groove is so big! the groove is so high-grade! I can come here and pretend to be a force!

For Yalei, it is already very satisfying to be able to make this impression on them.

In the center of the hall at the bottom, beside a huge circumferential stone table, it was now filled with elite pirates from all over the uncharted sea.

Although the strong sunlight outside had illuminated every stone, there was no light in the hall, only a natural ray of sunlight hanging from the vault, and the dust rose and fell in the soft light, contrasting sharply with the surrounding darkness - which invisibly increased the sense of sacredness and solemnity of the meeting.

The Black-Haired Knight, as the commander-in-chief of the Combined Fleet and the current titular chief of Uncharted, sits first and foremost in the northern part of the Round Table, with his back to Captain Jack's huge mural. Whitebeard sat to his left, and Kaido, scarred and wrapped in white gauze, and Redhead sat directly across from them with expressionless faces.

All the pirates under their command are seated in the first layer of the stands, except for the pirate captains and elites of the four major pirate groups who sit in the second layer of the stands, the respected old pirates, big businessmen, and island kings sit in the third row, and the potential of the pirate star, the upper echelon of the islanders, doctors, and navigators sit in the fourth row.

Yare sat at the center of the round table, with his back to the mural of Captain Jack climbing the pea, and a pillar of light shining down from the dome, reflecting the fierce face, which also looked majestic and imposing.

According to the will of the black-haired knight, the charter of the meeting was also based on conciseness and efficiency, and after the concise statement of the representative of the Pirate Council, it was directly the speech of the commander of the combined fleet.

In the hall of the room, there was a buzz of questioning between the gray marble columns, and in the midst of many fearful eyes, the voice of the commander of the United Fleet of the Pirate Council solemnly declared:

"With the authorization of the Pirate Council, I, Blackbeard, Edward Dickey, will once again announce the formation of a united fleet, and all those who participate in the meeting, every pirate ship in the Uncharted Sea, will be part of this fleet in wartime!

I pledge to follow the principle of self-government of all pirate groups in peacetime and never violate the right of all pirates to freedom. ”

After announcing the composition of the Combined Fleet, the black-haired knight raised his right arm with a solemn face, pointed his index finger at the resolute and brave face of Captain Jack in the mural behind him, and began the second paragraph of his speech without interruption:

"Since Captain Jack, the legislator, pioneer, pioneer, and great One Piece King, has led his subordinates to tear apart the mysterious sea from the siege and intimidation of sea demons and ghosts, and to establish this paradise of pirate glory from blood and corpses.

We have gone through one great division after another, endless internal friction and dumping have lost countless wealth and power, our borders have come to a standstill, and we are surrounded by wolves.

Now that the evil fruit has sprouted, they have joined hands, and they are coming!

Despicable ghosts, lowly remnants of the sea, they have made an evil alliance to destroy our territory, to plunder our wealth, and they want to decorate their courtyards with human flesh and blood!"

After reading this paragraph, Yalei raised his head and looked at the pirates who were gradually quieting down in the hall, his eyes shining with a scorching and sharp light, and shouted in a tone full of inclammation and demagogy:

"I, Blackbeard, the pirates who have inherited the glory and will of Captain Jack, hereby ask all of you to stand up, swear to me with your fingers on your sword and raise your right hand - never forget the sacrifice and pioneering of your ancestors, arm yourself with their spirit, and jointly protect our territory, our maritime frontier, and our future!"

"We swear!"

The pirates in the first row, who had been rehearsed in advance, stood one after another, pressed their swords in their left hands, clenched their fists in their right hands, and began to chant aloud the oath with the pirates.

The pirates in the second and third rows hurriedly stood up, imitating the mannerisms of the front row, and recited the oath.

The pirate novas in the last row took the initiative to stand up, their faces full of fanaticism and enthusiasm as they looked at the commander-in-chief, and shouted in a voice that almost overwhelmed the first three rows:

"We swear! We swear! We will never forget the sacrifice and pioneering of our ancestors, arm ourselves with their spirit, and jointly protect our territory, our maritime frontier, and our future!"

"Very well, please take your seats again. ”

The black-haired knight pressed his hands and motioned for them to sit back in their seats, giving him a perfect score for his performance.

At the same time, judging by the performance of these four rows, the future of the uncharted should be in the fourth row, and only this group of people sincerely shed their blood and sacrificed for the imaginary community in their hearts - this is a sign of the cohesion of national consciousness.

Once a group of people has gathered the will of the country, then their power will increase dramatically, and compared to the first three rows (excluding Kara), who think they are old and stable and indifferent and numb in essence, this group of young people is the pillar of the rise of the Pirate Federation.

......

At the moment when the pirates formed a combined fleet, the other forces in the uncharted sea also entered a sensitive cup period because of this sudden change.

It had barely risen over the distant horizon, and golden light filled the sea, but a large expanse of the Ghost Islands was shrouded in an incomparably deep darkness.

The black canopy, the black islands, and the black hull make it impossible to distinguish where the sky is and where the earth is, and where is the dangerous and deadly ghost fleet.

“......”

Under the silent command of the superior undead.

Tens of thousands of skeletal hoplites, Death Knights, armed to the teeth and armed all over their bodies, converged into a black tide and began to march in line towards the deepest part of the darkness in the distance.

The tens of thousands of troops did not make any reply, only the sharp sound of the blades of their weapons frantically rolled over them, and the neat steps that made the earth tremble.

The legion, composed entirely of the dead, was like a row of iron walls, advancing with a crushing momentum, and the whole army converged into a suffocating invisible coercion, causing the sunlight in the sky to turbulent and retreat.

The speed of the army's advance was constant, and the powerful negative energy converged into black smoke, following them in unison, releasing strange dark ripples from various corners of the legion, like layers of night waves, covering the entire army of the undead. (To be continued.) )
