One Piece: Invasion of the Heavens

Shanks left, but Shitian had a lot to figure out.

Shitian stood on the deck, watching the Red Foss go away, and asked Margao next to him: "Why is that red-haired guy so crazy? Did we do anything recently to irritate him?"

Margao scratched his hair and said: "Probably not! We have no other actions recently except preparing to participate in the Pirate World Expo, let alone the red-haired pirates."

Although Shitian was disgusted with Shanks' self-righteous attitude, he also knew that he was not someone who was looking for trouble. So Tokiten wanted to know what happened that made Shanks willing to risk a war with the Whitebeard Pirates to say something like that.

At this moment, Jozi came over and said, "Captain, the newcomer will be arriving soon. Why don't you go and take a look?"

"Newcomer?" Shi Tian asked with a big question mark above his head, "What newcomer?"

Generally, there are several situations when new members of the pirate group join.

One is that the pirate group takes a fancy to someone during the adventure and invites them to board the ship. Most of the main members of the Whitebeard Pirates and the Red-Haired Pirates boarded the ship in this way.

The second situation is that the pirate group recruits defeated enemies. There are indeed many people who join after they can't defeat them. For example, many of Kaido's pirates have challenged him.

And there is another situation, which only applies to famous pirates. For some purpose, these big pirates will use their fame to summon pirates on the sea to form a large fleet to act together.

There are very few incidents where Luffy becomes the leader of a large fleet because of one incident.

But the Whitebeard Pirates have been parked on an uninhabited island recently, and there are no other challengers after defeating the strange monks Ulki and Hawkins. Shitian has not invited other pirate groups to join forces.

Where do the so-called new people come from?

Margao slapped his head and said, "I almost forgot about this. Didn't you say before that it was necessary to absorb some fresh blood?

So I asked each captain to find some talented young people in our territory. They should have brought over all the young people who were willing to join us. "

Shitian was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said: "I just said casually at that time, why are you so serious and mobilized the entire pirate group to do it?"

Margao sighed and said, "Don't I also think what you said makes sense?"

Jozi said in confusion: "Isn't it just recruiting new people? Why are you so responsive?"

Shi Tian looked at him and said, "I think I know why the red hair came to me."

Shitian finally figured everything out, and the red-haired man thought that the big move of the Whitebeard Pirates was to recruit new people this time.

You know, although pirates are the main enemies of the World Government. But when it comes to dealing with issues related to pirates, the World Government has never been as serious as it is with O'Hara or the Revolutionary Army.

On the one hand, they cannot prevent the emergence of pirates. Even if they clean up this group of pirates, new pirates will appear.

On the other hand, the group of pirates exists around the core of the captain. Humans are fragile creatures. They will bleed and be injured when attacked, and they cannot avoid aging due to the passage of time.

As long as there is no leader, the pirate group will not be able to survive, just like the disbandment of the Roger Pirates. After all, not every pirate group on the sea has a successor who sometimes cheats like the Whitebeard Pirates.

So generally speaking, the change of times is often accompanied by the falling of the flags of the old pirate groups and the raising of new flags.

The reason for this phenomenon is related to the way pirates absorb new blood. Those three methods all rely on the captain's personal strength and charm. That's why the tree fell and the hozens scattered.

Of course, pirates in the chaotic camp would not have the concept of systematically training newcomers. Therefore, most newcomers will form their own pirate group to go out on adventures.

Some time ago, many older pirates applied to Shitian, hoping to retire and leave the Whitebeard Pirates.

It may be that the changing times have made these people feel a little lost, so they chose to leave. Shitian was not a BIGMOM. He did not embarrass those people and sent them away after clinking glasses with them.

And just after that, Shi Tianyou lamented about the aging population of the Whitebeard Pirates. Unexpectedly, Margao heard this and actually launched a big operation to recruit new members.

This really exceeded Shitian's expectations. Shitian had never thought of developing the Whitebeard Pirates into an organization that could be passed down from generation to generation. It was also in order to have free adventures with other people that Shicai took over the position of captain.

But the action of recruiting new blood, especially the action of the Whitebeard Pirates, still stimulated many people.

This will give many people the feeling that time is increasing in power and big action is about to take place. Who on the sea can ignore the actions of Shitian, one of the Four Emperors, especially the leader of the Whitebeard Pirates, who is recognized as the strongest pirate group?

No, the red-haired man who was always nosy came to him. There is no need to guess at Shitian. The World Government must have held many meetings recently to discuss how to deal with this crisis.

Jozi understood the whole thing after Margao explained it to him. He scratched his head and said, "What should we do? Everyone has sent new people over. We can't send them back again!"

Shi Tian rolled his eyes at Qiaozi and said, "Of course not, what will other people think of us if we do this? We are the Whitebeard Pirates, such a trivial matter means nothing!"

Now that everyone has sent over their favorite newcomers, let’s go take a look together! "

With that said, Shitian grabbed his white feather fabric and headed down the deck.

On the other side of the desert island, several small Moby Dick boats were parked on the shore, and there were many people standing on the beach. The captains stood aside, talking to each other.

Bista glanced at the newlyweds on the beach and said, "Thank you, the newlyweds look very energetic!"

Sachi crossed his arms and said, "I wonder if there is anyone with good cooking skills who can be recruited into our fourth team."

Atmos, the captain of Division 13, nicknamed Buffalo, laughed and said, "What, Sachi, are you old enough to train your juniors?"

"That's long-winded!" Sachi laughed and cursed, but did not refute.

"The captain is here!" Someone shouted, and then everyone's eyes fell in the direction of the sound.

Especially the newcomers standing on the beach. A large part of the reason why they are willing to join the Whitebeard Pirates lies in that man.

Shi Tian walked through the crowd, and in the direction he walked, everyone subconsciously moved out of the way. Shitian walked up to everyone step by step.

The beach that was so lively just now suddenly became quiet. Shi Tian stood at the front, with all the captains lined up behind him.

These people who came to join the Whitebeard Pirates had their own purposes, and many of them even had the intention of gaining fame from Shitian.

The captains knew this very well, but they still brought them to Shi Tian. Because they had faith in the timing, and things turned out just as they expected.

Just standing there, Shitian overcame everyone's little thoughts.

"Everyone, there is no need to introduce yourself. Everyone knows who I am. First of all, welcome to our Whitebeard Pirates.

Our father once said that all people are sons of the sea. This is exactly what our Whitebeard Pirates have always believed.

Therefore, everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates is family. So there are not many rules in the Whitebeard Pirates, but there is only one thing that is absolutely prohibited. That would be to take action against family members, and it would be unforgivable to violate this taboo. "

Saying that, Shitian released his spiritual pressure. Although the spiritual pressure was only controlled to a certain level, it still caused these newcomers to suffer a lot.

Shi Tian nodded. As expected of the seed players selected by each captain, not one of them was directly overwhelmed by Shi Tian's spiritual pressure.

Shitian suddenly smiled, and then the spiritual pressure he released suddenly increased. This time, someone finally couldn't bear it anymore, and someone fell to their knees in sweat.

But there were still many people who gritted their teeth and persisted in not falling down even though they were already a little dizzy. Only then did they realize how big the gap existed between the Four Emperors and them.

The captains all knew how terrifying Shitian's spiritual pressure was, so they couldn't help but whisper among themselves.

Thatch said: "The captain's spiritual pressure is even more terrifying, but it is too heavy for these newcomers!"

Margao said: "What are you talking about! The captain is testing these newcomers. Watch carefully. This is the most direct way to let these newcomers show their true abilities."

Margao said that some newcomers also thought about it. When the spiritual pressure increased, they knew that if they wanted to get a higher status in the Whitebeard Pirates, they would have to persist longer.

Therefore, these newcomers refused to give up and challenged their limits one after another.

Shitian smiled, and his spiritual pressure rose again. In just a moment, more people fell down, and some even lost consciousness because of their forced persistence.

At this time, only a few people were still standing. Shi Tian was also a little surprised. It seemed that he had really found a few good seeds this time. This kind of intensity of spiritual pressure cannot be endured by ordinary pirates. I didn't expect these newcomers to be able to persevere.

Originally, Shitian wanted to stop here, but when he saw the three people still standing, he couldn't help but want to test their limits.

Strong spiritual pressure was released, and two more of the three fell down, leaving only the only one standing.

Suddenly, a powerful momentum was released from the young man.

Shi Tian said with some surprise: "This is really unexpected, a person with the qualifications of a king actually appears."

This newcomer actually awakened the Overlord's Haki under Shitian's spiritual pressure.

Shitian withdrew his spiritual pressure and said with a smile: "Not bad, very good! Then from now on, everyone can get along well and have free adventures on the sea together!"
