Pirate's Freedom

Three days later, a reward notice sandwiched in a newspaper was carried around the world by Newsbird.

In the paradise of the first half of the Grand Line, in a tavern in the Capital of Seven Waters, a bored guest was reading a newspaper. A reward notice fell out of it. After picking it up, he glanced at it casually——

"Hey! Look at this reward order!"

"Two hundred and fifty-five million! Did this [supernova] appear out of nowhere?"

"Idiot! Look carefully! It's 25 billion!!!"

"How is that possible?! You are kidding me!!"

"Did the Navy print the wrong reward order?"

"How could a guy I've never seen before get such a high bounty?!"

"Read the newspaper quickly. This Tata Tot must have done something big!"

"...No, no, not a word, not even a mention in the newspaper."

"..." The atmosphere in the tavern became strangely silent.

……

In the New World, aboard the Moby Dick, Whitebeard was drinking and reading the newspaper. His expression became unusually serious.

“It’s really hard to laugh at!”

"Dad, what happened?"

"Marco, take a look at this reward order!"

"...a completely unknown face...and...such a high bounty?! Dad, did the newspaper say anything?"

"It's precisely because the newspaper didn't say anything that the matter seemed serious. He must have done something that the world government had to erase. It's not as simple as being strong. This guy is very dangerous!"

……

New World, Wano Country, Oni Island.

Kaido sat in the main hall, staring at the reward order sent by [Fire Calamity] Jin and the faintly smiling face on it.

"Unknown power, unknown danger, such a guy, I really want to have a fight with him!"

……

New World, Totland, Cake Island.

Charlotte Lingling put down the cake and screamed in pain as she clutched the newspaper in her hand.

"Well, well, well, well, well~~Someone out of nowhere suddenly appeared!"

"Go and investigate for me, what exactly did this guy named Tata Tot do?!"

……

Grand Line, Chambord Islands, Lao Lei, a coating craftsman, was working while looking at the newspaper in his hand. There was a reward notice inside. A guy with black hair and black eyes, somewhere between a boy and a man, tilted his face and stretched out his left hand. , his face was filled with strong confidence.

"Roger, the tide of times has certainly turned."

"If you reach the top at lightning speed, will these guys keep popping up?"

……

East China Sea, Xiluobu Village.

Shanks was lying on the grass, taking a nap under his straw hat, when a man with curly hair and thick lips came over and threw a reward notice on him.

"Shanks! Are you still in the mood to take a nap?! It's very stormy on the sea!"

"What does it matter? You can only move forward after you wake up, but it's time."

"I have decided! I want to form my own pirate group! Jesus Bu, come together!"

……

North Sea, an unknown island.

Don Quixote Doflamingo stood on the ruins of the headquarters of the local gang, covering his face with the newspaper in his hand, laughing maniacally.

"Fufufufufufufufu~~ I really want to see it! Those guys look so angry! The tide of the times is more turbulent than I imagined. No matter how high-minded the guys are, they will be overthrown if they are not careful. On the ground!"

……

Entrance to the Great Fairway, Upside Down Mountain, Twin Heads.

"Yo ho ho ho ~ yo ho ho ho ~"

"Yo ho ho ho ~ yo ho ho ho ~"

"Bring Binks' wine~to your side~"

"Like the sea breeze doing whatever you want ~ Riding the wind and breaking the waves~"

The beautiful singing came from a soundberry, and Rab stood still and listened quietly. Kurokas was still sitting on the recliner, reading the newspaper in his hand. Next to him, on another recliner , in Irene's arms, Ila held a reward notice high with both hands, staring at the familiar and unfamiliar figure above with wide eyes.

"It seems that Tata Tot is having a wonderful life. Don't you plan to go find him?"

"Waiting is part of dating, and isn't the longer the date the better?"

……

In a coffee shop.

"Jingle bell—"

Someone pushed open the store door. The store owner who was reading a newspaper behind the counter raised his head when he heard the sound and was about to get up to entertain the guests. On the newspaper spread on the counter, a reward order was blown by the wind and swayed gently...

……

In every corner of the world, discussions about Tata Tot continue. The shock caused by this bounty order continues to spread, and it is far from over.

At this time, Tata Tot, who was located in the Windless Zone, knew nothing about this. While he was enthusiastically building a home with everyone, in his spare time, he was also thinking about his next path.

Tata Tot is just 14 years old this year, but he has undoubtedly become one of the strongest players standing at the top of the world. From the bottom of his heart, Tata Tot will neither deny the role of cards nor Ignore your own efforts.

The card is like an amplifier, which can make one point gain ten points, turning his original one into ten or even a hundred, but his own efforts are the key to turning him from zero into one.

But now, Tata Tot has realized the limitations of the card. In fact, it has been obvious from the beginning. The effect of the blank card is [after clarifying the concept of ability, it captures the mental information related to the ability of the current world and imprints it on the card. Amplify the ability growth rate].

This means that the card's ability is firmly bound by the world in which it is located.

Even the return of life at full level not only gave him a huge improvement in strength, but also changed the nature of Tata Tot's life, giving him the qualifications and talents of a Yonko level.

However, at his current height, his [rapid growth period] has passed, or in other words, for the power system of this world, his end is already far away.

Thinking on the bright side, as time goes by, Tata Tot can get a blank card every year. Even if he does nothing, he can naturally become the next Whitebeard ten or twenty years later. .

But from another perspective, even if Tata Tot works hard every day, exercises his domineering and physical skills, and tries his best to eat a powerful devil fruit to develop into the state of awakening, ten or twenty years later, he will The strength cannot surpass the scope of the four emperors.

Tata Tot realized that he was now in a similar predicament as [Descendant of the Devil] Douglas Barrett - they both reached the top early, but no matter how hard they tried, they could not reach a higher level in the true sense. further.

There is no way to go further from the beginning. If you just rely on cards blindly, the limit of this world's power system is the limit of Tata Tot.

Before this, although it was not as clear as it is now, Tata Tot also vaguely realized this, so there were attempts at [Wuxian Reincarnation] and [Hegemony]. Although it was not perfect yet, Tata Tot We are indeed thinking of ways to expand the power system of this world.

But with no way forward, Tata Tot's current progress can be said to be almost non-existent. As far as [Hegemony] is concerned, if he wants to develop [Super Saiyan·Full Power] To the point that it can be activated at will and maintained for a long time. A more pessimistic idea is that by the time Straw Hat Luffy becomes the Pirate King, Tata Tot may not be successful.

This is not an exaggeration. In Tata Tot's vision, [Hegemony] is not just a defensive ability. The integration of armed domineering and one's own life cycle should provide an all-round increase. This increase is even far away. Flying above [Fourth Gear], this is the powerful ability that Tata Tot believes can expand the power system of this world.

But now, it can only be used for defense for a moment. Compared with the two, the gap between the two is as big as an abacus and a computer.

The cultivation system of Haki has appeared in the distant past, and its history is much older than the world government that has ruled the world for 800 years.

Tata Tot can imagine that when it first appeared, the system of haki must have been very crude. It was even like an isolated island. It called the hegemonic haki [Heart Network], but there was no understanding of the armed haki. Cognition has not yet explored its full picture.

Only through the efforts of generations and the continuous improvement of the Haki training system will there be guys like Roger and Garp who can reach the top without the need for Devil Fruit and just rely on Haki and physical skills.

Tata Tot once speculated that in the distant past, there must have been an era of unprecedentedly prosperous cultural exchanges. Any slight progress would not disappear, but would quickly spread across the sea amidst intensive exchanges.

Only in this way can we gather the wisdom of countless people and continuously promote the growth of the domineering system.

Only now, although the strong ones have continued to look for a way forward after reaching the peak, there have been further explorations such as [Thunder Bagua], [Taoyuan Ten Fists] and [God's Avoidance].

However, without communication and organization, these scattered and disorganized powers are just a flash in the pan, and will soon disappear into the long river of history with the death of the user.

For an ability whose name has disappeared into history without leaving any trace, even a blank card cannot capture it. Those painstaking efforts and flashes of wisdom are completely irretrievable. .

Tata Tot felt very sorry for this, and in view of his current situation, he decided to travel to various parts of the world to communicate with these guys who had made half a step forward at the end of the road.

What cannot be done behind closed doors, one can only rely on fighting to understand, to fight with equal strength against opponents, to see these beautiful flowers that bloom beside the road of the strong, and to continue to move forward in the process.

In Tata Toth's previous life, this method of cultivation had a name full of ancient meaning -

Cultivate hundreds of sutras in a furnace to achieve enlightenment.
