Pirate Warm Sea

Chapter 384 The Covenant
Regarding Joel's title, Shanks was noncommittal, although he didn't think so, but what he had been doing all along was to maintain the delicate balance between the new world and the world government?
The world government needs the new world, and the new world also needs the world government, and the two complement each other.

"Unable to solve the Age of Discovery, the world government can only find a way to lead the pirates from all over the world to the great route, lead them to their control area, and then exterminate them." Shanks said.

"If it can't be dealt with, we will drive them to the new world and let them make trouble by themselves, trying to be quiet."

"As long as there are pirates, people's attention will be on exterminating pirates. As for whether the world government is qualified or not, no one cares."

"So I never worry about whether the new world is still there. Even if it falls into the monitoring range of the navy, the new world will definitely exist. I just worry about you and your personal safety."

"After this big battle, can you still survive?"

What Shanks said surprised Joel, worried about me?Immediately smiled, sipped the tea in the cup, and asked: "Do you think Big Mom can kill me, Kaido can kill me? Or is there a mysterious master in the World Government who can kill me?"

"Im can kill you!" Shanks' words made the atmosphere freeze immediately.

Joel put down his teacup, he had to admit that Shanks was right, Lord Im, who is the Lord of the World and God of Darkness, could indeed kill him.

"Shanks, you are worrying too much!" Joel seemed to be comforting himself, and said with a smile, "Master Im is among the flowers of Marie Gioia, how could he come to kill me?"

"Roger, isn't Whitebeard so strong that he didn't even make a move?"

"You are different!" Shanks interrupted Joel, and said, "Whether you admit it or not, what flows in your body is the blood of the Carolingian family, the blood of the Sky and Guardian family. He can let it go." A new overlord of the world has appeared, but this overlord must not let his surname be Carolinian!"

"I didn't expect you to be so worried about me?" Joel looked into Shanks' eyes and smiled unexpectedly.

"Because I see in you the hope of overthrowing the world government!" Shanks said decisively. Under Joel's surprised eyes, he looked at his broken arm and said, "Originally, I pressed the treasure on the road. Flying, but the development of the situation is too fast."

"I can't wait for him to grow up. Next year, the year after, and three years at the latest, these things will be understood. I can feel it."

"Now I can only choose you, and put the treasure on you!"

Joel stared at Shanks dumbfounded. He originally thought that the prince of face came to Djoser to make himself face him, and called a truce, but he didn't expect that he came to add fuel to the fire!

"I was in total shock!" he said.

"Actually, when I came here, I had two plans. If you are just the leader of the D family, to repeat what your father did, I will not help you. I will let you fend for yourself and wait for Luffy to grow up. " Shanks explained.

"But if you are not, you have your own plans, and I would be happy to help you to become the real king, and let you have the capital to resist the world government, and even destroy it!"

"I know, but please keep this matter a secret for now. I don't want to really attract Mr. Im. I can't beat him." Joel replied.

"Naturally, I have one last question." Shanks asked.

"You ask."

"How's your relationship with that guy?" Shanks finally said what he was most concerned about.

"Relationship, relationship—" Joel touched his chin carefully, he had to say, and of course he couldn't say all of it, "Maybe it's better than Lockes back then, at least my subordinates won't split before the war , I wish I could die."

After thinking about it, Joel decided to use Lockes as a shield, as if he had said a little bit, but it was nonsense if he took a closer look.

But it sounds different to Shanks. He can confirm that Joel does have the heart to be Rocks, and it is good to have this heart.

"I see!"

This concludes the meeting.

……

……

When Joel returned to the study, Shanks had already left Mystril with his people. Of course, his itinerary was not intended to be kept secret.Big Mom and Kaido learned about this at the first time, which made the hopeless war even more elusive.

The lobbyists set off from Cake Island to those forces that are still on the sidelines, hoping that they can join the Rocks Alliance, at least not let them fall into Joel's pocket.

But although this war is dangerous, anyone with a discerning eye can see the result at a glance. The hope of winning here in the Rocks Alliance is really slim, and even the Rocks Alliance is filled with a negative attitude.

"He's gone?" Wei Xi'er got up and asked.

"Let's go." Joel sat on his chair, hugged Vixier into his arms, and asked, "What are you looking at?"

Wei Xi'er found a comfortable angle, curled up in Joel's arms, and replied: "It's not a big deal, Qi Wuhai will arrive in Mystril tomorrow."

"This is the last support army on our side. It's just a pity. I don't know why only two people came, Hawkeye and the Empress. Leaving aside Whitebeard II, neither the Tyrant Bear nor Death Surgeon Luo came."

“The system is dead in name only.”

"Oh, that's right." Wei Xi'er suddenly looked at Joel and asked, "I heard that this empress is the most beautiful woman in the world. I don't know if it's true."

"It's really beautiful." Joel nodded and admitted, "But it's not as exaggerated as being number one in the world. My Xi'er is more beautiful than her if others don't say it!"

Wei Xi'er was still unconvinced when she heard the first half of the sentence, but when she heard the second half, her face turned red all of a sudden, and she said like a mosquito, "Really?"

"The biggest advantage of me is that I never tell lies!" Joel Zaimai boasted with a shameless smile: "Actually, the most terrifying thing about her is her sweet fruit. Once you covet her beauty Thoughts will be petrified by her, it is really powerful."

"But if you don't covet her, then this fruit is no different from being useless."

"Then are you the former or the latter?" Wei Xi'er asked curiously with her eyes wide open like a curious baby.

"The latter, her sweet fruit is really useless to me." Joel laughed.

"Hey, I believe you!" Wei Xi'er put her arms around Joel's neck with a smile on her face.

……

……

Thinking of the absurdity of last night, Joel froze on the bed thinking about life, and now he is in the sage mode.Beside her, her slender body was half exposed and half hidden.

Qiaoer pulled the quilt to cover Wei Xi'er, got up and got out of bed, and suddenly felt a sense of emptiness under her feet, as if she had been hollowed out.

He smiled helplessly, he didn't seem to have done anything too outrageous, why is his body getting worse and worse?
Originally thought that after Xiti left, his body had improved a lot, so why is there another Wei Xier who is as powerful as Xiti now?

By the way, are they really human?
Shaking his head, Joel changed his clothes, finished washing, and walked out of the room.At breakfast time, Robin told Joel Shichibukai had arrived.

Joel nodded, the arrival of Hawkeye and the Empress meant that all participants in this war had arrived.Suddenly, a biting chill penetrated into his body.

"Hiss—" Joel trembled all over.

Turning his head to look, Meglin was wearing a white dress and sat coldly on his right hand.The maid immediately served her breakfast, and she ate it expressionlessly.

In Joel's body, the flames of the sun fruit rose, driving away Glenn's chill.What kind of kung fu is she practicing, why is she getting colder and colder?

Originally, it was just a cold attitude, but now the whole person is like the real Wannian Ice.

"Are you still used to living in Mystril these days?" Joel asked.

Meglin picked up the coffee, her silver eyes were full of silence, then she nodded slightly, answering Joel's question.

"Let's say something." Joel leaned over and said with a smile, "I haven't heard you speak since I'm fine. If you don't speak for such a long time, be careful that you really won't speak later!"

Meglin looked at Joel coldly, her silver pupils seemed to be covered with ice, and Joel's golden pupils seemed to be burning with flames, and the two looked at each other like this.

After a long time, Meglin turned her head away, dodged her eyes, and slightly parted her red lips, "You want to care?" With that cold voice, those who didn't know it thought there was a big feud between the two of them who killed their father!

"Megline doesn't want to talk, why do you insist on forcing her?" Wen Yan, dressed in a concubine red dress, walked into the restaurant side by side with Gion, and sat next to Megline.

"Where's Shi Ni, that brat?" Joel looked left and right, and asked when he didn't see Shi Ni.He knew that ever since Shi Ni accompanied Wen Yan back home, the relationship between the young couple had grown by leaps and bounds, and they were stuck together like glue all day long.

Wen Yan took a sip of tea, her expression was as usual, no special reaction to Joel's teasing.Joel nodded when he saw this, it seems that this pair of mandarin ducks has really achieved a positive result.

"I went to receive Qi Wuhai earlier, it seems that he wants to compete with Hawkeye." Wen Yan tore open the bread and ate it in small bites.

"Discussion?" Speaking of this, Joel looked at Gion and asked, "Sister, did Hawkeye ask you to discuss swordsmanship?"

"Huh——" Chief Gion let out a breath, and put a greeting card on the table, "I received it early in the morning, and said it was to fulfill the agreement two years ago."

Joel remembered that when he was still in the East China Sea, it was Gion or Major General, and the two had a friendly "exchange" of swordsmanship.And agreed to fight again in the future, but both sides seem to have forgotten, until today this matter was brought up again in Mystril.

"How about it, can you beat it? Shall I help you explore the sword move first?" Joel asked with a smile.

"Only you?" Gion gave Joel a blank look, it wasn't that she looked down on Joel, but Joel's swordsmanship was not enough for him in terms of swordsmanship alone.

Shaking his head and denying his thoughts, fighting spirit was ignited on his face, and he replied: "Just right, I also want to see how far my sword skills are from the world's number one swordsman!"

"Maybe after this sparring, my sister will become the number one swordsman in the world!" Joel flattered her with a righteous and flattering expression.

Besides, if you flatter your sister, can that be called flattering?
"Stop talking nonsense here to make me happy!" Although Gion said so, she still smiled happily, and she was very confident in her swordsmanship.

In fact, there has been a saying in her heart for a long time. Compared with the previous three generals, some people think that the three generals of their current class are too weak.

However, following Joel's shocking sword in Dressrosa, and the magical soldiers on Meglin's Cake Island not long ago, people gradually recognized the strength of the two of them.

Among the three, only she has not had the opportunity to show her strength so far. Many people think that she is not worthy of her name.She also wanted to use this sparring with Hawkeye to block someone's attack.

"It seems that my sister is confident!" Looking at the smile on Gion's face, Joel knew that she was still very confident in her own strength.

Speaking of which, no matter what, Gion is also a justifiably promoted admiral, so it is impossible to be afraid of Hawkeye.

After breakfast, everyone left in a hurry. Only Meglin continued to refill the free coffee leisurely, as if drinking poor Joel.

"Is there anything you want to say to me?" Seeing that Meglin didn't intend to leave, Joel sat with her until the end and asked after everyone had left.

Meglin put down the coffee in her hand and nodded.

"Let's all back down," Joel said.

The attendants all retreated upon hearing this.

"Go ahead."

"After this war..." Meglin's silver eyes shone with silver light, and she asked, "Is the service agency going to be an enemy of the navy?"

"How come!" Joel said with a smile: "The service agency is a bounty hunter organization, not a pirate. It is a supplement to the justice of the navy, not an opposition."

Meglin shook her head, "Although I don't understand politics, I still know that after this battle, you will become the biggest enemy of the world government."

"You are guilty not because you want to rebel, but because you have the ability to rebel."

Joel didn't answer, just drinking the hot tea in his cup.

"Then what if..." Meglin asked hesitantly, "If I was ordered to fight you, what would you do?"

"I haven't heard you say so much for a long time." Joel changed the topic with a smile.

"Answer me." Meglin would not be influenced by him.

"Don't worry, I've already lined up. The navy won't move the service agency yet." Joel looked into the silver eyes and said, "If you really come, I'll run away!"

"In terms of escape speed, you will definitely not be able to catch up with me, just like before!"

"Puchi—" Suddenly she smiled ice-snow, and Meglin smiled slightly. Amid Joel's wide-eyed surprise, she returned to her icy look.

"Then who do you think will win in the end?" Meglin asked again.

Joel pondered for a while and said, "You know, I don't want to lose to you! I'm number one in the elite training camp now, and I'll be number one in the future!"

"Always be number one!"

Meglin raised her chin upon hearing this, and replied proudly: "No, I am the number one, and I will take back my position. You'd better be your second child obediently!"

"Then we'll wait and see!" Joel looked at Meglin expectantly and stretched out his right hand.

Meglin looked at it, and finally stretched out her right hand and held them together.

"Hiss—" It's really cold.
