New World, on an unknown island.

A cold wind howls on the winter island, with the occasional snowflake falling.

The strange climate of the New World is deeply reflected at this moment, and it is not yet winter, but it is already like the middle of winter, and the temperature has reached minus 230 degrees. People didn't want to be outside, so they all shaved their heads and drilled into the house.

O'Henry's Tavern, the only place on the island where you can buy alcohol, is more lively than usual. In the small space, there were sixty or seventy people, most of whom were men with broad shoulders and round waists. They drank and shouted in the lights, and the waves they set off could still be heard quite clearly, even from hundreds of meters away.

In the noisy crowd, there are two guys with extremely special temperaments. They sat quietly in the corner of the counter and whispered and laughed, with the volume controlled softly, perfectly blending in with the noisy atmosphere of the neighborhood.

"I didn't think I was even ranked in the top 30 in the world, but I always thought I could be in the top three! Hahahaha! ”

The red-haired young man on the left smiled, his smile was silly, but it was very relatable, giving people a hearty and warm feeling, "Speaking of Beckman, what are your rankings?" ”

"91,"

The young man on the right, Beckman, with a cigar in his mouth, replied, "It's about what I expected." ”

"Tsk, you only have 91, it seems that almost all of the strong people in this strongworld are strong......"

"That's for sure, after all, these 5,000 people, including us, are all handpicked by this phone bug family...... Even monsters like Whitebeard can only be ranked 7th, and Katakuri, who is known as the highest masterpiece of the Charlotte family, is ranked 21st......"

"Whitebeard? Katakuri? These two names are them."

Shanks suddenly realized, "Indeed, 'family is the most precious treasure' is the most suitable character of the old man Whitebeard, and 'favorite doughnut' does correspond to the preferences of the Katakuri that circulated in the New World......"

"That's right,"

Beckman nodded, "By the way, the "immortal bird" ranked behind you should be the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, Marko, and the "Hawkeye" next to Marco should be the recently famous swordsman Mihawk......"

"Mihawk? The young swordsman who is said to have never been defeated in Paradise? ”

"Yes, that's him."

"He's about to enter a new world, tsk, I'd love to try it out against him...... Hahaha, this is the so-called swordsman's instinct! ”

"That's why I said I don't understand you swordsmen......"

"Then again, Beckman, I think we red-haired pirates are going to fight for this number one throne!"

Shanks suddenly said solemnly.

"The name of the first? Well, it does help our pirates increase their visibility and prestige...... It's rare that you have a good proposal, Captain. ”

"Well, that's why it's the same, but I don't think that's why we should strive to be the first."

“…… On the other side of the sea is Ralph Drew? ”

"That's right, on the other side of the sea is Ralph Drew!"

Shanks shook the glass in his hand, the pale golden liquid reflecting psychedelic colors in the dim light of the bar.

“…… Shanks, do you know what that mysterious reward is?! Is it really related to the final island that One Piece Roger once arrived at?! ”

Even a wise man like Ben Beckman, who "has not changed since the Red Continent collapsed", could not help but lose his temper after realizing that the so-called mysterious reward might be directed to the highest target of all the pirates, Ralph Drew.

"No, I don't know, Beckman,"

Shanks shook his head, "But I do know that Captain Roger once lost a permanent pointer to Ralph Drew......"

“！！！”

……

The week following the "Battle for the Top of the Forbidden City - Ralph Drew" event and the "World Leaderboard" event was undoubtedly extremely difficult for the 5,000 StrongWorld closed beta players - these "Chosen Ones" handpicked by Polusalino have their own special characteristics in the real world. They are either strong people, powerful nobles, or important players in the pirate world who will make great achievements in the future...... In short, no one will easily accept that they are left behind the other 4,999 people. Even Bucky, who is in last place, has a desire for the first place.

Moreover, many of these 5,000 people are already beginning to realize that this game is not just a simple game, but the ultimate secret that has a good chance of leading to the world......

This mentality has led to fierce competition for these 5,000 people - according to the statistics of Porusalino's back-office, during the week, each account spent an hour more online every day than before.

And, due to the rules set by Polusalino for team points bonus, among the 5,000 people, except for Hawkeye, who has no friends in reality, the rest of the people chose to team up to play in order to get more points.

And when most people choose to team up, the single-player player experience will be relatively poor, and the chances of different teams colliding with each other will be greatly increased - for example, the day after the event started, the "Navy Headquarters Strategy Game" team composed of Polusalino and Sakasky, Sengoku Marshal, Vice Admiral Karp, and Kuzan collided with the five-member team of the Whitebeard Pirates three times in succession.

Pirates and navies are absolutely antagonistic in reality, and the game is no exception. Moreover, due to the particularity of the Whitebeard Pirates, although the navy hates them in reality and regards them as great enemies, it is not easy to attack them or confront them head-on.

But it's not the same in Strongworld - the in-game duels basically don't have to think about the real-world consequences, so both sides have the only goal of teaching each other and winning.

Rao is Polusalino played a lot of MOBA games before the crossing, and he is still shocked by the intensity of these three rounds: both sides have basically used up the number of "Millennium Dragon Armor" (resurrection armor), and the duel time is even fuller. However, in the end, his navy side was still superior and won the three-game duel.

And if in the past, such a game victory was to make the Warring States Marshal and others feel particularly happy, but now, "a game victory is equivalent to adding a lot of points, and it is more likely to win the mysterious reward of revealing the secret of Ralph Drew" - such an equation has been deeply rooted in the hearts of all of them.

Therefore, the Marshal of the Warring States, who led the Navy Headquarters to "fight" against the Whitebeard Pirates and achieved major strategic results for the first time, simply stopped suppressing the excitement and pleasure in his heart, and directly released himself and provoked on the public screen:

[Everyone] my subordinates are really too worrying (Admiral Sengoku):

"Ralph Drew and Onepiece are real! It's a pity that it seems to be closer to our navy, Newgate~ Goo-la-la-la! ”

The words of the marshal of the Warring States can be described as full of mockery, and for a while, the marshal's office in the Marinfando fortress building was filled with a cheerful air.

Polusalino laughed even more, and he almost couldn't take care of himself - he remembered the first half of the sentence very clearly, and it was clearly what Whitebeard himself said in the future top war in the original plot!

The famous line was said by the opponent in advance......

……

It turns out that although they have never been exposed to the Internet and online games, the creativity of the people in the world of pirates is also quite good - not only did many internal beta personnel spontaneously play the tower pushing game into a "big smash braw", but there was an extremely bad "substitute fight" incident on the side of the Holy Land Mary Joy.

The boss of this "surrogate fight" incident is one of the world's nobles, Stippid Sheng, and the surrogate he hired is a CP0 agent who is responsible for protecting him.

As the most well-known Kaizi group in the entire pirate world, the world nobles naturally became the members of the closed beta selected by Polusalino - after all, most of them are stupid and have a lot of money, and when they buy things, they only buy expensive ones and don't buy the right ones, and they are topical in themselves.

Studidssaint is one of the world's nobles chosen by Polusalino, but unlike his compatriot Leander Palace, a game-savvy and wise politician, Stippid behaves like his name in Strongworld - stupid.

In the ten rounds, the Sti Pedro will lose at least nine of them, and eight of those nine games will be because he himself is too stretched.

Can the dignified nobles of the world, the descendants of the great Creator, endure this anger of losing again and again? Of course, that can't be tolerated, and Staupid is eager to follow the phone bug to get all the teammates who can't lead him to win to eat the gun.

But it's a pity that he is not Polusalino, and he can only think about such a thing as "beating people along the network cable", and then vent his anger on the slaves around him.

Playing the game - losing - punishing the slave - playing the game again - losing again - punishing the slave again...... This cycle continues until the world leaderboard begins.

Looking at his world ranking of 4995, Stupid Saint finally couldn't bear it anymore - why could his noble world nobles only rank 4995?! And the Fool Saint next door is ten places higher than him?!

Angry and unwilling, Stippid Saint vents his anger by frantically abusing slaves, and on the other hand, he gives his CP0 guards the task of improving his rank or being fed to the mermaids.

Where do these CP0 guards know how to improve his ranking, they haven't even experienced a strongworld duel. In desperation, the CP0, who was the lowest status in the guards, fought a game for Stopid with the belief that he would die.

This fight is terrible - this CP0, who is good at seeing and hearing domineering, unexpectedly found that he is actually very good at playing this game, and after encountering enemies, he can always rely on his excellent domineering to react first, and rely on small moves to avoid the enemy's non-directional moves...... His well-trained body is almost capable of manipulating it......

In the first game, win; In the second game, win; In the third game, lose; In the fourth game, win ......

When this CP0 guard reported the situation to Stippia, he had actually helped Stippid win a full seven games and only lose one!

Now, not only did he not have to lose his life, but the CP0 guard was also rewarded and praised by Studpied, and urged him to keep up his efforts.

Unfortunately, the ranking of Stipid Saint swooped up like a rocket, and this situation only lasted for half a day before it came to an end - Porusalino noticed that the account was performing abnormally.

After a little look at the recent record and game performance of this account, combined with the previous situation of this account, Polusalino immediately decided that this world nobleman should have hired a substitute to fight.

If it is placed in the world before Polusalino travels, once the substitute is discovered by the game operation, then the ban must be an indispensable punishment - but there are exceptions to everything, the goose factory has Xinyue members, and the strongworld also has world nobles. Although they are all players, they are very different from normal players......

So, Polusalino was decisive...... Banned the account of this Stippid for 100 years!

What? The world's nobles need special treatment as a happy member?

I'm sorry, but Polusalino was one of the ordinary players before the crossing, and he has long despised (envied) this kind of privileged rich player from the bottom of his heart. And now that he has crossed over and become the mastermind behind the scenes, he naturally turned over as a serf and sang, and took revenge on all the anger and unfair treatment he had suffered in his previous life.

Joy Member? The aristocracy of the world? One side is strong?

Sorry, fair! Fair! It's fucking fair!

As for whether they will give up or something, Polusalino is not worried at all - as a monopolist, the phone bugs have never worried about not having users!

And that's exactly what happened - 100 years after discovering that his account had been banned, Stippid Saint angrily hit one of his nearest servants with a musket he carried, then threw the phone bug into a fish tank full of piranhas, and finally he began to think about how to start a strongworld account again......

There are only 5,000 closed beta accounts, this is what the announcement said, is it possible that he can really only wait for the open beta?

Stippid fell into an incomparably depressed state, and the butler beside him immediately rolled his eyes and stepped forward to flatter:

"Don't make yourself unhappy because of this little thing! After all, there are so many things that are worth your time...... I heard that there are new slaves in the slave market, do you want to buy some slaves to relax? ”

"...... to buy slaves?"

What the butler said was what Stippid was most interested in on weekdays before the phone bug changed, and his eyes couldn't help but narrow. Because of his obesity, his eyes were like two thin slits cut in the skin with a knife, greasy and disgusting.

"Is there any new slave over there that is worth buying? Fish-people? Or the Giants? Or is it the fur people? ”

"I heard that there are several female ** subordinates from Amazon Lily,"

The steward replied respectfully, "You know, these slaves are from the Amazon, the daughter country of the windless zone, and they are all natural warriors, and they are extremely difficult to catch, and the rarity is also extremely high......"

"Rare slaves? I like it! ”

Studpid only paid attention to the words "extremely rare" that the butler said, and instantly became interested, "Go now!" I'm going to buy slaves! ”

"Yes!"

The steward couldn't help but laugh - the Draconians never pay attention to the process of payment when buying slaves, and they, the stewards, can often eat with their mouths full of oil in places that the Draconians can't notice......

(It's the same as last time, take 20%...... But when you think about it, 25% is pretty good...... ）

……

Boya Hancock, born on September 2, 1493 in the sea calendar, has just turned nine years old this year, and is a trainee crew member of the Nine Snake Pirates, the world-famous daughter of the pirates. About a week ago, she went out with the Pirates for the first time, along with her two younger sisters.

Unfortunately, on her first voyage, she was captured by cunning slavers on the ship of the Nine Snake Pirates, along with her two younger sisters.

Although they are not as rare as mermaid slaves and giant slaves, the female warriors from the Nine Snakes are also a very sought-after commodity in the slave market, and the bold slave traders belong to the kind of warriors who can go to the trouble for high profits.

Risking their lives, they succeeded this time, and Hancock and his two sisters were sent to a slave auction house in the Chambord Islands.

If the normal process is followed, they will be bought by the noble class of this world at the slave auction in the Chambord Islands. However, the owner of the auction hall was very discerning - Hancock's outstanding appearance and the tanuki wooden sign around her neck that did not look like an ordinary object made him think that the little girl and her sisters should be important characters from the daughter country.

An ordinary female slave may only be able to sell a few million Baileys, a female slave from the Nine Snakes may be able to sell tens of millions of Baileys, and a female slave sister with status from the Nine Snakes - 100 million Baileys, no, hundreds of millions of Baileys!

In order to maximize profits, the owner of the auction house did not remove the tanuki wooden plaque around Hancock's neck (to prove his identity), nor did he auction her and her two sisters on the spot, but sent them to the most special slave market in the world, the Mary Joya Slave Market.

"I don't know how much the dragon people will quote for my goods these days...... 300 million Bailey? Or 500 million Baileys? ”

The owner of the Chambord Slave Auction House thought so.

……

The three Hancock sisters were taken to the Mary Joy's slave market in a comatose state, and when they arrived, they were locked up in a separate warehouse.

When the effects of the coma drug administered by the slave traders wore off, the three sisters came to their senses and immediately curled up together in fear.

"Eldest sister, what should I do?"

The youngest sister, the orange-haired Marigeld, trembled and grabbed the corner of Hancock's coat, "Can't we go back to the Nine Snakes?" ”

It's not just that he can't go back—though he hasn't experienced the life of a slave, Hancock shuddered when he thought of the fate of the people on the merchant ships who were robbed by the Nine Snake Pirates.

She was terrified, but as an older sister, she knew that she had to comfort her two younger sisters who were more scared than herself. Hancock was about to speak, when suddenly, the door to the warehouse was pushed open.

Looking at the man who pushed open the door and seemed to block the light seeping in from the doorway, Hancock's body trembled at first, and then a trace of determination and ferocity flashed in his eyes.

"Sonya! Mary! Come on! ”

I am my sister, and my sister has to stand up when she is in danger!

"Die! Bastard! ”

With a coquettish shout, Hancock's petite body suddenly advanced like a black cat, and almost instantly approached the body of the man who pushed the door open. Although he is young, as a Nine Snake warrior who has received various combat training since he was a child, Hancock's combat skills are definitely not bad.

Being petite is sometimes an advantage, and Hancock wants to use it to sweep the visitor to the ground and then take advantage of the opportunity to let his sisters escape.

"It's worthy of being a high-end product from Nine Snakes!"

The man's response to Hancock's attack was a finger, the index finger of his right hand, gently erected and a block forward.

"What?"

Hancock's attack instantly stalled, and his body seemed to be blocked by an invisible wall, completely unable to advance even a centimeter forward.

"Being hungry for so long and still having such vitality, the people of Tianlong will definitely like it! They like the most vigorous goods that can be played for a long time! ”

The man laughed, and with a flick of his index finger, Hancock's body was instantly bounced back, and he fell heavily to the ground and rolled for a long time before hitting his two younger sisters.

"Big sister! You okay? ”

"Damn, this is domineering?!"

The man obviously didn't want the goods to be damaged, so he kept his hand, and Hancock didn't do any damage, and rolled over from the ground and got up.

As a citizen of the Nine Snakes, who has the highest degree of domineering popularity in the world, and is also a trainee crew member of the Protector Pirates, Hancock naturally understands what domineering is. So she also knew how strong the domineering level of this man was in the understatement—this was definitely not the level that the three of them could fight.

"With such an armed color domineering intensity, you are definitely not an ordinary slave trader, who the hell are you?!"

"Edward, that's right, you three are high-grade goods from the daughter country!"

The man looked at the three sisters as if he was looking at Jin Shan, "I was in a coma when I came, so I didn't know anything?" It's okay, so that you can directly accept your fate......"

"What the hell do you mean?!"

Although inexplicably frightened, Hancock bravely stood in front of his two younger sisters who were trembling.

"Then I'll tell you,"

The man's perverted grin, "This is the center of the world, the Holy Land of Maryjoya, not the Chambord Islands where you were before. Here, you will welcome your future masters, the nobles of the world! ”

"I'm just an ordinary servant who takes care of the goods for the nobles of the world, and the reason why I'm a little domineering is just to better manage your ......"

"Don't show such a scared expression, laugh at a ~ A lifetime of slavery is about to begin~ Hahahahahaha!"

The man laughed and left, leaving some food for the three sisters - female slaves in a state of starvation, the price would be affected.

"What to do, sister? Are we really going to be slaves to the Draconians for the rest of our lives? ”

Sonia trembled, the brutality of the Draconians even though they were far away in the windless zone.

Hancock didn't know what to say, and subconsciously touched the tanuki wooden sign hanging around his white neck - it was the amulet that her mother had asked her to carry on her body since she was a child, saying that if she was in danger outside, she could touch the wooden sign and pray to the tanuki god Blue Fat, and then a light would turn into a humanoid warrior to rescue her.

(A warrior who can turn into light...... Whoever you are, please save us! ）
