Lord of the Holy Light of Pirates

January 1517st, in the Haiyuan calendar.

The cold winter has not passed yet, but for some reason, the weather is exceptionally sunny.

On the pier of Donghai Windmill Village, a seventeen-year-old boy was standing. He was wearing a beige jacket, revealing his strong chest muscles. He had a silly smile on his face and was waving to the people who were saying goodbye to him on the shore. : "Hey! Sabo, Luffy, I'm sorry, I'm going to sea first!"

Today is his birthday, the day he turns seventeen, and it is also the day he goes to sea.

Among the villagers, standing at the front, one on the left and one on the right, was a young man wearing a blue vest and shorts. He was a few years younger than Ace. He had a straw hat on his head and shouted: "Hehe, be careful. , Ace!”

Next to him, another young man with slightly curly blond hair, wearing a blue shirt and a tie neatly tied around his neck, who was the same age as Ace but a few months younger, also waved and shouted, "In a few months, I will go to sea." Don’t let me catch up with you in the coming days, Ace!”

"That's for sure, Luffy, Sabo!"

Ace, the eldest of the three, finally went to sea successfully at the age of seventeen, and Sabo, the second oldest, will also go to sea three months later.

"I won't lose!"

"Take care ah!"

"One of the three naughty brats is finally gone, now we are free!"

The residents of Windmill Village shouted blessings. Maginot, who knew the danger of pirates because of Shanks' incident, smiled a little reluctantly and prayed silently in her heart, "Everything must be safe, Ace!"

Watching Ace's boat gradually move away, Sabo suddenly turned around and made a fist gesture to Luffy, "Luffy, today's training hasn't started yet!"

Snapped!

Luffy punched his fists, making a crackling sound, and made a fighting posture, excitedly saying: "Come on, Sabo!"

Ace, who began to wander on the sea, looked at the newspapers collected by Windmill Village in his hand. Some were recent and some were from several years ago.

When he was having trouble with Luffy and Sabo, he didn't have the habit of reading newspapers. A few days before going to sea, he asked Maginot to help her collect newspapers as intelligence.

"The Fourth Emperor Roy suddenly appeared in the first half of the Grand Line, captured Long, the leader of the revolutionary army, and handed him over to the government for unknown reasons!"

"The Beast Pirates Flame Calamity and Yasuo fought fiercely. The outcome was not decided, but they were attacked by the Nine Snakes Pirates who arrived for support. They were defeated and fled!"

"The Whitebeard Pirates have lifted their alert status, and their fleet of forty battleships has begun to disperse across the Grand Line and the New World!"

Looking at these newspapers whose publication dates were either a few years ago or recent, Ace was filled with yearning.

This is the top pirate.

"Yoshi, first recruit some like-minded companions, and then go visit the man who takes care of Luffy!"

Ace tossed the newspapers and threw them all into the sea, but he didn't know that the man was long gone.

……

Three months later.

In a very similar scene, Sabo is standing on a small boat with the abbreviation "SB" of Sabo's name floating on it. This is the same scene as Ace's parting!

"Goodbye, Luffy, I will wait for you on this sea!" Sabo waved and shouted.

"You have to take care of yourself, and you must run when you encounter an enemy you can't defeat!" Maginot held her hands to her mouth and shouted with a twinkle in her eyes.

"Ah...thank you, Miss Maginot!" Sabo hesitated for two seconds before accepting this strange blessing.

Compared to Ace, Sabo was much smarter in intelligence gathering. He collected all the newspapers for three consecutive months and slowly sorted them out while sailing.

"The Four Emperors Kaido and Roy fought again. The two have fought for more than a hundred times. Kaido was defeated again and ran away! Kaido has regarded Roy as his old enemy!"

"The ace Z of the Holy Light Pirates led his noe garbage disposal team to defeat the remnants of the former Wald pirate group. Everyone except the vice-captain Binjack was killed, and Binjack was sent to Impel Down!"

"Jesus Bu, Lucky Lu and other former remnants of the Red-haired Pirates formed the Seventeenth Fleet of the Whitebeard Pirates, with Lucky Lu as the captain!"

"The rich man Gilder Tezoro joined forces with King Shichibukai Doflamingo and Torrega to build the world's top entertainment city [Gran Tezoro], becoming another major entertainment city in the new world besides the Yonko. power!"

"The revolutionary army dragon overthrew the three kingdoms under the government's management, with a bounty of billion beli, approaching the Yonko!"

Looking at these news headlines that told about the real big events, Sabo became very interested in the last one, "A revolutionary army that subverts the government and manages the kingdom?"

……

"This is an invitation letter written by Lord Tezzolo himself, please appreciate it!"

In the new world, in the sea area of ​​​​Aldimi, Tanaka, who is Tezoro's confidant, handed a letter to the golden sword Ivalis who was patrolling nearby, and then left quickly, not wanting to stay for a moment!

Ivalis looked at the gold-plated invitation and said, "Isn't Tezolo the original owner of the fruit we robbed a year ago?"

"He has built the world's best battleship, and it is also the world's top entertainment city. Maybe he wants the Four Emperors to reward him, buy connections, and allow him to do business?" Beckman analyzed from the side.

Ivalis put a stack of invitations into his cloak pocket and said, "Let's go back and ask Mr. Roy what he means!"

On the other side, Roy received news from Luo that he had obtained the teleportation fruit.

"I'll give you that fruit to eat. I'm afraid Crocodile doesn't have any subordinates who trust it, so I kept it until now!"

Roy held the microphone, and on the other side of the microphone was the person he decided to have the ability to transfer the fruit, the chief priest of Aldimi Cathedral, and one of Roy's fanatic followers, Countess Liadrin, who has now Is a paladin.

After making the decision, Roy gave her the teleportation fruit. She was someone who would never betray anyone. It would take at least two months to get here from Alabasta, where Roy was, and Liadrin and others were needed. That’s it.

"Lord Roy!"

A request came from the stairs. Roy turned the microphone and looked outside. Ivalis was walking in with a gold-plated letter.

From the shoulder-length blond hair at the beginning, to the middle-parted blond hair now hanging down the waist, the hair is getting longer and longer, and he has formed his own pirate group, the Golden Sword Pirates.

Ivalis walked to the steps of the throne and threw the letter accurately onto the small wine table next to Roy's left armrest.

"This is?"

Roy took the letter in his hand and looked at it. There was a line of words "Establishment of Gulan Tezoro" written on it, hoping that Mr. Roy would appreciate it.

"I'm not the only one who was invited, right?" Roy read the letter once and threw it aside.

"Yes, I saw it in the news before. This ship [Gran Tezoro] is a neutral zone recognized by the world government. Neither the navy nor the pirates can fight on it. In other words, there are other navies and pirates. possible!"
