Pirate Lord of Darkness

Chambord Islands.

Compared with the collapse and chaos that had existed for a long time, a new order has been re-established in just a few months.

This is all because of one man, Ian Novoa, the new Commodore and now the veritable controller of the Chambord Islands.

No matter openly or secretly, no one dares to offend Ian Novoa. Those who offended him have now been destroyed or suppressed, and the remaining forces dare not touch Novoa's brow.

After restoring order, the Shampoo Islands began to prosper again. This situation satisfied the World Government, and no one in the Navy could do better than Novoa.

After all, stability and order are what they need. Even if Novoa has legal actions that touch the nerves of the navy, they acquiesce to it and pretend to turn a blind eye.

Even if it is a complaint, it is harmless to Novoa. First of all, he has not made any big mistakes, and secondly, he has connections with the World Government.

Novoa's daily exercise was to develop his Devil Fruit abilities. After stabilizing the Shampoo Islands, he didn't take action many times, unless there was chaos somewhere or some arrogant pirates caused trouble.

Since joining the Navy, in order not to be exposed, Novoa has not contacted the Night Pirates, and the Night Pirates have not contacted him.

There must be people from the Navy who pay special attention to Novoa around him. Perhaps they are not wondering whether Novoya was inserted by other forces, but they just need to pay attention to Novoya's behavior and whether he will go too far.

Although Novoa's behavior was very measured and on the surface, there is no guarantee that Novoa could not control it and went too far, and would be able to stop it as soon as it was discovered.

You know, Novoa is now one of the richest navies, with a fortune of over 1000 million, and the most accurate information is that it exceeds [-] million.

This is the wealth that Novoa has collected in just a few months.

Those who are close to red are red, and those who are close to ink are black. Novoa naturally gathered a group of his cronies around him, who were infected by his style of conduct and personality charm.

Following Novoa, life is much better than other navies. If you have extra money, you can save a small treasury if you don't squander it easily.

Of course, it was also necessary to train his own elite troops. Novoa knew this and was not too laissez-faire with his subordinates, and was ruthless during training.

Novoa knew that he was a thorn in the side of the Navy. As for the internal intelligence of the Navy, he could not actually get much information. Most of it could be obtained with the abilities of the Night Pirates.

In addition to important information at critical moments, he can only have access to it when he truly becomes a senior officer of the Navy Headquarters.

As a nail, it is necessary to be strong. At the same time, it also needs an army, that is, a naval branch.

What would happen if a navy branch suddenly rebels during a war and is attacked from behind when it is hard to guard against it?Or destroy the navy's logistics base?

After all, the Navy has now become self-sufficient. In addition to having no source of money and relying on military expenditures from the World Government, the Navy has opened up a large amount of farmland and grown a lot of food. It has already produced harvests in the past two years.

In the future, the development of naval food bases will be further expanded.

After all, compared to ordinary people, the navy also has a great advantage in planting and is more efficient. It will be very simple to draw a group of people after a while.

Treat this as one of the training items, and you can ultimately gain the joy of harvest, and on the other hand, enhance the cohesion of the navy.

Now that obvious results have been seen, the Navy will definitely invest more.

The Navy is changing and changing within it, and Novoa can even see the possible impact in the future. It is foreseeable that the Navy is restoring its strength and becoming stronger.

From his position, although the Dark Night Pirates did not look for him, he did not take the initiative to contact the Dark Night Pirates. After all, before joining the navy, he had a phone bug in his hand to contact the Dark Night Pirates, and he also learned about the Dark Night Pirates. The pirate group is placed in the front half of the Grand Line where the eyes are.

And Novoa also recorded what he saw, the changes in the navy, and his guesses about the future, in very detail, although it may not be of much use.

Waiting for a time, he will send out the information. As for the time, it will be when the navy returns to the new world.

After all, the naval power of the new world is nothing to fear compared to pirates. The highest combat power is only one vice-admiral.

Only two or three years were not enough to restore the navy's strength, but Novoa could feel the thriving and positive atmosphere inside, and the overall atmosphere was excellent.

He did not expect that the Navy could adjust in a short period of time and join the Navy before its lowest moment. Novoa could clearly understand this and even experienced it along the way.

Only with the concerted efforts of the top brass of the Navy and the entire Navy, the Navy came out of its trough. After all, the difficulties faced by the Navy at the beginning were very heavy, and the military expenditure provided by the World Government alone was far from enough.

However, losing Sihai also reduced part of the navy's consumption.

It took two years to even get out of the trough. Now the navy has not long come out of the trough. Although it has worked hard to master the first half of the great sea route, it only masters [-]% of the sea area.

The most important force is focused on protecting the franchised countries and the waters near the franchised countries.

After the Golden Sea Battle, the importance of the franchising countries has been greatly increased compared to the past. Except for the franchising countries of the four seas that have separated from the World Government, the franchising countries in the first half of the Great Line have actually become tougher.

The right to speak in world conferences has been greatly improved.

This can be seen clearly from the World Conference that just ended.

However, with the gradual recovery of naval power, the navy will increase its efforts to deal with pirates in the coming days.

This is all foreseeable. It is the intelligence that Novoa obtained from within the navy, and many people in the outside world have made similar speculations based on the changes in the situation and the recovery of naval power.

In fact, the navy has been very low-key in the past two or three years. In addition to protecting the participating countries, it has been restoring its strength.

The reason why the navy's strength is slow to recover is also due to the World Government. The heavenly gold received by the World Government every year has been greatly reduced. It is under financial and economic pressure. It is short of money, so how can it focus on the navy.

Except for the first year, the navy's military expenditures were reduced a lot in the next two years because it saw that the navy was growing its own food and had achieved results.

The Red Earth Continent is still in chaos and has not stopped. They are sucking blood without restraint. Even in the areas still under their control, the number of people is constantly decreasing, and the wealth they gain is also decreasing.

There is also a secret push by the revolutionary army to carry out fierce resistance. Even though the world government has vigorously suppressed it, under the brutal rule, people who cannot bear it leave in large numbers and join the rebel camp, setting off another rebellion. Resist.

This has a huge drain on the world government's finances, not even lower than the amount of military spending given to the navy.

A large number of residents of the Red Earth Continent in the Valley Territory began to pour into the world. Human power and potential are infinite. The principle that man can conquer nature was revealed and inspired under further pressure.

On the red earth continent, there are four "ladders" connecting the four seas from top to bottom.

What a spectacular sight this is, people are constantly going up the ladder to the four seas.

This is a road soaked in sweat, and it cost countless blood.

According to speculation, in building this "ladder" that can be said to be a safe passage, the residents of the Red Earth Continent paid more than 400 million casualties, and the real death toll was actually much higher.

Perhaps their actions touched the world. Many civil organizations around the world, and even the Kingdom's military, etc., spontaneously helped them. It only took two years to build these four ladders from hell to heaven.

Among them, many strong people have joined, such as the "blind swordsman" Yixiao who shined in the sword competition. It is with the help of these strong people that these ladders can be born in a short period of time.

Maybe Sihai is not the so-called paradise, but for those who come down from the Red Earth Continent, it is no different from paradise.

The Red Earth Continent is too chaotic, with wars and chaos. Even if there are resources, they are in the hands of a small number of people, or they are prepared for rebellion.

How many people starve to death?In this case, even the revolutionary army cannot take care of everything.

In just over three years, more than 5000 million people have died in the legendary paradise. This is a terrifying number.

The evil of human nature is undoubtedly revealed on the Red Earth Continent, and it is gradually turning into hell.

The hard red soil cannot even be cultivated, and it is difficult to survive without the sufficient resources of the sea.

It is precisely because of this that more people are fleeing the Red Earth Continent. The Red Earth Continent is gradually transforming into a place of contention between the revolutionary army and the world government, and will eventually become a battlefield between the world government and the revolutionary army.

Due to the reason why the Golden Sea Dragon took action and the downturn of the World Government after the Golden War, the Revolutionary Army took this opportunity to increase the chaos in the Red Earth Continent and cause trouble to the World Government.

The revolutionary army is no longer hiding in the dark on the red earth continent. It resists the world government by supporting arms, providing supplies, and even high-end combat power, and gradually begins to come to the forefront.

Many residents who came down from the ladder cried with joy.

The establishment of the ladder to heaven is undoubtedly an epic moment worthy of being recorded in history.

The financial consumption is much greater than the heavenly gold obtained, and even some treasures have to be sold in the beginning to replenish the financial resources.

The world's nobles still maintain the most luxurious life and enjoy a lot of wealth.

Due to the chaos in the sea, the World Government has restricted the Celestial Dragons from leaving the Holy Land.

The Celestial Dragons also have to live, and their biggest pastime is slaves. The number of slaves has been greatly reduced and consumed. The Celestial Dragons are in urgent need of high-quality and large numbers of slaves.

The life of a Celestial Dragon cannot be without slaves.

Even if there is something wrong with the World Government, it still has huge influence. The World Nobles are still the World Nobles. This has not changed and they have the highest rights.

Although the slave trade has been hit to a certain extent, it still has a huge market, and huge profits also attract countless slave traders.

Many pirates also work part-time as slave traders.

The Celestial Dragons, a group with a long history, still maintain a slave culture and are keen on raising slaves of various races, including humans. As part of the slave culture, slaves raised by the Celestial Dragons will have their names branded on their bodies. It is the mark of the "Heavenly Dragon's Hoof" and serves as proof that the slave is an "inferior human being".

No matter what race you are, no matter how high or low your original status is, whether you are a criminal, a businessman, or even a prince, after being branded by the Tianlong people, you will have only one status—slave.

Slaves are the spiritual food of the Celestial Dragons. It is conceivable that although the Celestial Dragons are suppressed by the World Government, a large number of slaves are sent to the Holy Land through various channels.

The Tianlong people want high-quality slaves of all races.

During these days, the Tianlong people who were rarely seen came to the Shampoo Islands one after another.

Due to the stability and order of the Chambord Islands, the World Government has relaxed the "descendence" of world nobles.

The Tianlong people, who had been depressed for a long time, each brought enough Baileys and wanted to buy a large number of slaves in the Chambord Islands to replenish their "inventory."

Naturally, a lot of things happened, which caused Champaody Islands to panic, but in the end they were all suppressed and nothing happened.

This is naturally the role that Novoa plays in it, and the reason why the Tianlong people can come to the Shampoo Islands is also because Novoa manages the Chambord Islands very well.

This is also the reason why Novoa is favored by the World Government, and even has a relationship with the Celestial Dragons. After all, before going to the Shampoo Islands, the Celestial Dragons did not know everything. After going back and forth, Novoa's name was included The ears of the Celestial Dragons are even somewhat famous among the Celestial Dragons collective.

A large number of slaves were transported to the Chambord Islands and then bought by the Celestial Dragons. The slave traders made a lot of money. The strong purchasing power of the Celestial Dragons also raised the slave trade in the first half of the Great Line.

The slave trade all over the world began to be suppressed. After all, with the establishment of a new order, some of the rules of the old order would naturally be squeezed.

"It's really disgusting!" Novoa thought in his heart as he welcomed the Heavenly Dragons to leave with a smile on his face.

Watching the troops of the Celestial Dragons leaving, the agents protecting the World Government, and the large number of slaves in cages and wearing slave collars.

There were too many slaves to fit on one ship, so two ships were needed.

You can imagine how quickly the Draco slaves are consumed.

While receiving and protecting the Celestial Dragons, he could also get some information from their mouths. In the hands of the Celestial Dragons, it was normal for several slaves to be killed in a day, and there were even dozens or even hundreds of slaves.

Underneath his calm face, there was anger hidden in Novoa's heart. He had never forgotten that he was once a slave. If he was unlucky, he might be transferred to the hands of the Celestial Dragons.

"Go back!" Novoa gave the order as he watched the Draconian ship leave his sight.
