I am a Celestial Dragon!

Buzz….

Accompanied by the sound of ancient chimes, Gawain slowly woke up from his twilight.

Before he opened his eyes, Gawain felt that the voice in his ears was not right. He vaguely felt that he might have returned to the Xianyang Palace in his dream.

And when Gawain opened his eyes, what he saw was indeed the palace soaked in ancient atmosphere, and the black and gold woven fur clothes on his body.

"call……."

Gawain sighed leisurely, and narrowed his eyes in understanding.

It seems that the way for him to return to this palace is not through the so-called sleep and dreams, but through coma!

After all, the previous battle with Garp was the second time Gawain fell into a coma due to serious injuries after coming to the world of One Piece.

However, the way he came back always made Gawain feel a little unfriendly.

If he could only return to Xianyang Palace if he was in a coma, it would be a bit unsafe. With Gao Wen's current status, frequent comas were not a good thing.

Thinking of this, Gawain raised his eyes and looked around. He felt that since this palace appeared again and again, it meant that this was not a dream, but something real that could help him.

In other words, this is the golden finger that I got after traveling through time, but because I was too successful, I never used the golden finger.

As for now, Gawain always feels that since it is Goldfinger, the way to enter the palace should not be so primitive.

All this should be the reason why he knows too little about Xianyang Palace!

Thinking of this, Gawain continued to look around. He wanted to observe the nearby environment first, and then continue to study the imperial edict he saw in Xianyang Palace last time.

But the moment he looked around, Gawain was stunned!

At this moment, Gawain was really stunned, because unlike the last time, he was not the only one in the palace this time!

To his left and right, and around him, there were countless figures, looming in the current palace in the form of mist!

This is not the reason why Gawain is dazed. The reason why he is dazed is not because there is a figure below.

Instead, Gawain actually knew all the figures below him!

At this moment, on Gawain's left side, countless people were lining up one after another.

Standing at the front of the queue on the left is actually Mr. Rayleigh, whom Gawain has always trusted! ! !

And standing below Rayleigh is Yixiao, below Yixiao is Zefa, below Zefa is Xiliu, and below Xiliu is Big Bear!

That's right, most of the male officers on the Black Bird are standing on the left hand side below Gawain. Their figures are as misty as clouds and mist, and at the same time they are vaguely clear as two-point projections!

As for the right hand side below Gawain, there are naturally a group of women led by Gion.

There were men on the left and women on the right, and the formation was extremely standardized. This also made Gawain understand something in an instant!

In Gawain's eyes, he did not see the shadow of Sand Crocodile Crocodile in the crowd.

Among the women, Nami and Nokigao did not appear.

Obviously, these shadows seem to represent that the people who appear here have made up their minds to follow themselves completely to a certain extent.

Not to mention whether these figures have any other functions, their appearance alone has allowed Gawain to find a way to use them.

Because of these shadows, Gawain can almost perfectly judge whether his subordinates are loyal or not!

Gawain has always been a person who is good at seizing opportunities. Even if there are no opportunities, he will create them.

So when clues worth using appear in front of him, Gawain will naturally not let go of every point worth using.

So in just a moment, Gawain decided that after leaving Xianyang Palace, he would win over the Sand Crocodile.

If he can't appear in Xianyang Palace five times or three times, haha...

Without improving Wen's judgment on the sand crocodile, he raised his eyes and continued to look around him.

Since there are many people standing in the queue of ministers below, there should be room for others to stand in this palace.

Sure enough, on the left side of Gawain's throne, Lu Qi stood respectfully, making Gawain smile softly. Lu Qi seemed to be regarded by Xianyang Gong as his bodyguard, and he was also the kind of personal guard.

Kalifa stood on the right hand side of Gawain's throne, seemingly acting as a female official.

Thinking about it, it's true that Lu Qi and Kalifa were extremely loyal to the Tianlong people. After meeting Gawain, Lu Qi's attitude towards Gawain was indeed different from the people below who were ministers.

Although it is not certain how Xianyang Palace made the judgment for its subordinates whether they were ministers or personal guards.

But Gawain had some understanding based on mere guesswork.

For ministers, they will obey their orders, but their obedience has a precondition, and the prerequisite is that they will not do anything that will completely tear the ministers' bottom line.

This is the subject. Although the subject is obedient to the king, the relationship between the subject and the king is closer to that of a collaborator, both at home and abroad. It is just that the king takes too much initiative in this kind of cooperation.

As for the first-class guards, they can be called diehards!

What if Gawain ordered Rayleigh to kill Ace for no reason, or kill Shaqi.

It was obvious that Rayleigh would not listen to orders.

But if Gawain orders Luqi to kill Kalifa, or orders Luqi to kill Kaku, or even kills the pigeon on Luqi's shoulder that depends on each other for life.

In short, people like Lucci and Kalifa can accept and carry out any order from Gawain.

This is the difference between a die-hard loyalist and a courtier.

Gawain will not make any different definitions for everyone because of this difference. Even Sand Crocodile, Gawain will not be dissatisfied because he did not appear here, let alone the difference between a die-hard loyalist and his subordinates. .

For Gawain, those who obey can be exploited, and those who disobey can also be exploited.

Those who are loyal can be used, but those who are disguised are better used.

Even the enemy can use it, right?

Thinking of this, Gawain ended his examination of many figures. He lowered his head and finally looked at the cases in front of him.

Different from the last time, this time there were no posts about the deceased emperor on the cases.

This time, the only thing that appeared on the table was a map with a faint light!

The moment he saw the map, Gawain's face tightened slightly. He picked up the map and looked at it thoughtfully.

At this moment, the map in his hand exactly depicts the world of One Piece. Gawain clearly saw the four seas and the Great Route, as well as the new world that Gawain had not been to yet.

But it is a pity that the maps at this time are all ambiguous for all the islands that Gawain has not visited, and there is no detailed record on them that Gawain expected.

Gawain's plan to rely on this map to clarify the geographical locations of many islands in the pirate world completely failed.

However, on the map at this time, all the islands where Gawain passed and planted flags were extremely clear at this time, and even emitted a slight red light!

The red light formed a line, extending from the New World to the four seas before ending. After all, Gawain did not plant a flag in the East China Sea. He and the Five Old Stars only agreed on the control of the Grand Route.

As for the islands and countries where Gawain planted his flag, there were also many surprises among them.

Islands without a country, such as Changhuan Island, or islands like Sky Island, which are completely ruled by Gawain in the name of monarch.

While they emit red light, there are also small golden black birds hovering on the background of those islands, flying endlessly.

Except for the islands directly ruled by Gawain, the other islands just glowed with red light.

After seeing the map clearly, Gawain's smile became even brighter. This map was even more useful than the figure below.

So far, the figure can only distinguish the loyalty of his subordinates. Regardless of loyalty or not, Gawain has the confidence to control his subordinates. Loyalty or not is not important to a qualified emperor.

But this map….

Gawain felt that if the difference between the Xuanniao and Wuxuanniao islands on this map could distinguish the hearts of the people in various places.

Then this map can really be called a powerful tool for governing the country!

A king is not moved by one person.

Whether a person is loyal or not should not be the king's main issue.

The popular sentiment of a city or a place is the most useful measure for the king.

Whether the decree is smooth, whether the people can accept the decree, whether anyone is inciting the people's hearts, etc., there are too many things that Gawain can use.

But even so, Gawain still felt it was not enough!

I saw him speaking softly to the map after looking at it carefully.

"Doesn't it have other functions, Xianyang Palace?"

Yes, he is still looking for instructions on how to use his golden finger.

Accompanied by his voice, the map in his hand suddenly changed. Soon, the map disappeared from the scroll in his hand, and was replaced by three categories.

Gawain took a quick look and realized that these three categories were...

"territory"

"Portal"

"monarch"

That's right, there are only these three options.

Gawain focused his attention on the map, and suddenly, a new map different from the one just appeared suddenly appeared.

This time, the map is not a sea, but a black void.

In that corner of nothingness, a lonely planet was slowly rotating.

Looking at the planet, Gawain's mind gave the order to watch.

Suddenly, the previous map of the pirate world appeared in Gawain's eyes again.

In this regard, Gawain already understood the meaning of the territory, and because of this understanding, Gawain's heart could not help but beat violently.

That’s right, this map only prepares a corner of the One Piece world!

This is a map that may be used to record the world!

Since there is room for recording, this Xianyang Palace must not just end up in the world of pirates!

For just a moment, Gawain's eyebrows were extremely intense. Although the world of pirates is already exciting enough, why don't we want to get more! ! !

For a moment, Gawain quickly exited the layout option and opened the subsequent portal option.

But after opening the portal option, all Gawain saw was a solitary sentence.

"The monarch has not yet unified the current world and does not have the conditions to open the portal."

This simple sentence caused a meaningful smile to appear on Gawain's lips. He gritted his teeth and took a long breath.

Unification? This is reasonable. After all, the palace I am in is the famous Xianyang Palace!

Since Shang Gong's reform, every monarch sitting in Xianyang Palace has always had the idea of ​​unification.

If we didn't fight for the victory of the six kingdoms, how could there be generations of virtuous kings, up to the First Emperor, who would fight for seven generations?

After Gawain gritted his teeth, he resolutely closed the portal interface. Don't be reluctant to let go of what you haven't got yet. Having a goal is enough!

Unify the entire sea...?

Just what I want!

After silently making a firmer decision, Gawain finally looked at the monarch's options.

Facing Gawain's field of vision, the scroll in his hand changed rapidly, and then five columns of large text appeared.

"Monarch: Gawain"

"Bloodline: Taihao"

"Talent: King's Blood"

"Destiny: Black Bird"

"Sixth House: None"

Looking at the above options, Gawain frowned slightly. Does he have Taihao blood? Does this mean... that he is a descendant of the White Emperor?

The Destiny Black Bird could understand, but he didn't know that he was able to own this Xianyang Palace because of his descendants from Taihao and the Destiny Black Bird.

Or because he is a descendant of Taihao, the destiny black bird. Does your golden finger show Xianyang Palace?

These two points may seem similar, but they are so different that Gawain cannot help but consider them.

And my own talent...

Gawain was thinking, what does this talent mean, and what does the king's blood mean?

Just as Gawain was thinking this, the words "King's Blood" on the scroll quickly expanded and turned into a series of explanations.

There were a lot of words explaining it, and after Gawain read it carefully, he came to his own conclusion.

The so-called king's blood refers to the king's instinct that can drive his ministers like blood.

This kind of drive is not something that makes people bow down and worship, but that the king can, to a certain extent, possess the talent of all his ministers becoming one!

That's right, king's blood is to turn the talents of the so-called king's ministers into blood and fill it into the king's body so that the king can drive and use it!

In other words, before Gawain knew it, he had inexplicably obtained the combined talents of his ministers!

This point made Gawain let out a heavy breath. No wonder since the more men he had, Gawain felt that the effect of his training was better, so that he became stronger faster than everyone imagined.

Obviously, he and everyone on the ship had received gravity training, but while everyone was making slow progress, Gawain had almost reached a state where even the Shichibukai would be difficult to defeat.

This is the talent given to Gawain by Wang Xue, a talent that he is not qualified to use if he doesn't work hard, but once he works hard, he can quickly cross the heavenly gate!

And this is different from the talent Gawain originally thought.

Gao Wenwen believed that his talent should be used to control his subordinates.

But his talent is used to strengthen himself?

Gawain seemed to understand something, as if this was the talent that the king of the fairy kingdom should have!

Controlling people's hearts is the lifeblood of human emperors.

The king of the immortal kingdom should naturally break away from the mentality of a mortal and think of becoming an immortal and becoming an ancestor.

Thinking of this, Gawain let out a leisurely breath.

It seems that in addition to unifying the pirate world and opening the portal to the heavens.

Don’t slow down your workout for a moment!

Because becoming stronger is the ultimate reminder that Xianyang Palace gives you! ! !
