One Piece: Rise of an Empire

After Des walked out of Xiali's cafe, he didn't gather with the Straw Hats. Now that he was here, he didn't need the help of the Straw Hats to get back to the sea. After all, Murloc Island was his territory.

Des looked towards the Dragon Palace in the sky, and muttered to himself: "It's time to meet an old friend."

--------

"Damn it, let go of Miss Mermaid!"

At this time, the Straw Hats have met their enemies, but this time it is not the murlocs they used to be, but a group of pirates who came to the murlocs to catch the mermaids.

Seeing the beauty of the mermaid being captured, Sanji, who obeyed the chivalry, was the most angry. At this time, his body was already burning with flames.

These groups of pirates were already nervous when they saw the Straw Hats. As pirates, they certainly knew the value of mermaid beauties. Since they came here, how could they not catch a few beauties, but they knew more about the Straw Hat Pirates, the pirates who made a fuss two years ago.

"Don't come here! Otherwise, I will be rude to her!"

The pirate leader threatens the Straw Hats by grabbing the mermaid's neck.

This group of pirates has nearly a hundred people, and they hold nine beautiful mermaids in their hands.

Now that they have hostages in their hands, Sanji certainly can't bear to see the mermaid girls get hurt.

"Damn it, if you have the ability to fight, what's the point of threatening us with hostages?" Sanji shouted.

"Hahahahaha, we are pirates!" The pirate leader shouted.

But the smile of the pirate leader stopped immediately, because two arms grew out of his body.

"Crack!"

Nico Robin, hiding behind the Straw Hat Crew, smiled.

hostage?

nonexistent.

For this kind of pirate who is not strong, even if there is a hostage in his hand, he will not be safe.

Those pirates holding hostages were all eliminated by her ability.

The other pirates watched their leader being dealt with, and rushed towards Luffy and the others.

"Damn it, they actually killed our boss, we want to avenge our boss!"

The pirates took out their weapons and rushed over, but they were too weak for the Straw Hats two years later!
After a while, the pirates were all dealt with by the Straw Hats.

"Thank you!"

A beautiful mermaid came over and said to Luffy and the others.

Before Luffy could speak, Sanji, whose eyes became heart-shaped, grabbed the mermaid's arm first, knelt down on one knee and said, "As a knight, how can I hurt such a beautiful lady like you? You're welcome, my lady mermaid."

Soronami gave a look like I don't know this guy, and Robin looked at Sanji with a smile.This kind of behavior is not surprising to them.

The people on Fishman Island are more cheerful.

"As expected of my knight!" Miss Mermaid said to Sanji with a smile.

When Sanji heard this, he turned into stone.

"I... I... Now that I have been recognized!"

Dragon Palace.

"Your Excellency Des, it's been a long time." Neptune saw Des in front of him with an incredulous expression.

"Yeah, we haven't seen each other for many years." Des said with a smile.

Now the fishman island, Princess Otohime and the princes are all in the fishman island of Daxia, while King Neptune and the mermaid princess are in the current seabed.

"What do you want to ask for this time, Your Excellency Des?" Neptune asked. After all, Des is such a busy person, it is impossible to come here without something.

Des shook his head and said, "This time I really just passed by, but now the Fishman Island under the sea is quite deserted."

"That's right, most of the residents of Murloc Island have already moved to Daxia, and the murlocs have developed very well in Daxia, so compared to the land, they will definitely not choose the seabed." Neptune said.

In fact, they have selfish motives in not leaving. If Mermaid Island is completely transferred, then they are really just people from Daxia, and he knows that Des is not just a king, but also a powerful pirate. In the future, a big war will definitely break out.

If Daxia wins this battle, it doesn't matter if Murloc Island is merged into Daxia, but if this battle is lost, Daxia will cease to exist, if all of Murloc Island is now transferred to Daxia.In other words, murlocs will not exist in the future.

These are the results that Neptune found Xia Li to predict, plus Neptune's own cognition.

However, even if Des didn't understand this, wouldn't Linlin understand?
But Des didn't care.

"Hahahahaha, it doesn't matter if you are on the bottom of the sea, the surface of the sea will soon be uneven. Compared with going on land, the bottom of the sea will be relatively peaceful now." Des laughed.

Neptune was surprised. If the person who said this was a small person, there would be nothing wrong with it, but if it came from Des, then it was true.

"Is the war about to start?" Neptune asked, he was not ignorant of things on land.

Des nodded.

"The World Government, the Navy, the Revolutionary Army, the Five Emperors, the new era, and the comeback old guys like the Red Earl."

"If the Murloc Island wants to be preserved, your approach is right." Des laughed.

"New Era? Is the New Era qualified to challenge you now?" Neptune asked. He had no doubts about the strength of the Five Emperors, and they were still at their peak.

Des shook his head and said, "Not now, but it will be there soon. The change of the times cannot be changed, even stronger than Whitebeard can't escape the change of the times."

Neptune nodded.

"Let's not talk about it. The Straw Hat Boys are now on Murloc Island. Please tell them for me, and I will leave first. Thank them for their smooth sailing."

After speaking, Des was ready to get up, and Dess didn't need to stay here.There are still many things to do back home. If Des remembers correctly, Linlin once told him that after entering the new world, Luffy's first force should be Doflamingo.

Now the navy is also ready to move. Regarding the Qiwuhai, the navy has long planned to get rid of this system, and now that it has experienced conscription in the world, the navy has even stronger forces than before.

Qiwuhai should not exist for too long.

Des should also prepare well.

"How did Lord Des leave? After all, you didn't wear it?" Neptune asked.

"Hahahaha, Neptune, you still don't understand my strength."

Des finished.The devil fruit ability was activated, and trees kept wrapping Des's body, and then, a layer of plated ship membrane appeared.

bump-----

In everyone's line of sight, a star-like object flew from the palace on Murloc Island into the sea.
