The Pirate Incarnate as Thunder

Chapter 469 New World Pattern [-]

The Broken Monk Pirates, deck.

"When I arrived in the New World a year ago, I was very high-spirited and tried to kill some big pirates to become famous in the world. But I soon learned a lesson in this sea area."

After eating and drinking, James, a former village teacher with a seaweed haircut, started talking, while Ulki and all the members of the ship were the observers.

"Teacher James, what's the point?"

The little monk Ian asked James a slightly naughty question, which made James say something meaningful: "Here the ruler rules, the dominated struggle to survive, and the weak who refuse to be dominated, like me, will lose everything." Then he tried to escape."

Urki, who was sitting cross-legged at the front of the crowd, touched his chin: "It's interesting that even if you have passed out, you are still subconsciously talking about escaping back to the first half of the Grand Route."

"That's the best place for the weak to survive."

After sighing, James changed the topic: "Let us continue the topic just now. There are three forces that dominate this sea now. Everyone calls them "Two Emperors and One King""

"Words from the Two Emperors"

"It should be "Whitebeard" Edward Newgate, "big Charlotte Lingling."

“Then the remaining ‘king’ is the ‘Thunder God’ Reg. "

James's pause allowed everyone to make supplementary remarks. James, who entered teacher mode and science popularizer, nodded: "There is no dispute about the first two. The last one, everyone calls him "bow down." "The King of". "

Aphra immediately became angry: "King Reg has rescued so many refugees and captured so many pirates. He is a great man. Why should he be given such a derogatory nickname?"

As soon as Aphra's words came out, there was a dead silence on the deck. They were also part of the pirates, and they were the ones officially wanted by the World Government.

This little nun is always so innocent and so kind that people are often speechless. She was exiled from the monastery because she secretly released a little pirate, who is now Ian: but the more she is like this, the more she wants to be protected. Woolen cloth

"cough cough, cough cough"

Although the contact time was not long, James, who had coaching experience, could still see Aphra's character, and hurriedly coughed to break the awkward atmosphere: "Because the king of Reg doesn't just mean that he is a king, but also a king." It is another identity of "The King's Shichibukai". I think everyone knows about the battle that took place on the Red Earth Continent last year. "

Everyone nodded in unison, and James did not show off and said directly: "Ever since the golden lion that dominated the waters of the New World, with the fall of the "Red Soil Battle", it was gradually forgotten by people, replaced by the "Lightning and Magatama" The "Kingdom of Heaven" flag was flying in the wind on the many islands he left behind. Most people believed that the two emperors were indifferent because they had the support of the World Government behind them. "

"Fart and call Nawu"

Ulki, who cursed, immediately proclaimed a Buddha's name: "The World Government has never sent a single soldier to achieve the status that Thor has today. He relies on his friendship with the world's most powerful country, "Elbaf". Only with the support of all citizens and soldiers of the Kingdom of Heaven can we gain a firm foothold in the new world."

"Captain Ulki is right."

James nodded, his expression darkened: "We had the same idea, so Captain Pula and the others all died, and I was the only lucky person to survive. The reason was that we wanted to rob a merchant ship, but we were driven away. The Kingdom of Heaven’s warships were defeated, and if it hadn’t been for a hailstorm at the end, I probably wouldn’t have survived.”

"Mr. James, please forgive me"

At this time, Aphra suddenly became considerate. She did not say that they had brought it upon themselves, nor did she take pleasure in their misfortune. Instead, she sincerely clasped her hands in a prayer gesture.

"Being a member of the pirate corps but not having the heart of a pirate as a nun really makes people feel redeemed."

"Thank you."

He also responded with sincere thanks to James, suppressing the surging emotions in his heart, and continued: "Nowadays, Thor's sphere of influence can be said to be prosperous. People living there do not need to pay heavy taxes, nor do they need to worry about pirate attacks. They only need to work hard to build their homes, work hard to learn knowledge and practice physical skills, so as to become self-reliant."

Pah, pah, pah. Ulki, who was the first to applaud, led the others to move as well.

After the fierce applause, Ulki, who had been impressed by the "electoral system" implemented by Reg for a long time, said with a proud face: "Mr. James, the Kingdom of Heaven is my hometown. There is no need to introduce it. Let’s talk about the other two sea emperors.”

"Okay, let's talk about Whitebeard first."

After Gudong and Gudong drank some water to moisten their throats, James pondered for a moment and organized his words before speaking: "When the name "Whitebeard" is mentioned, what do you think of?"

"Benevolence and Righteousness"

Everyone's unanimous voice made James suddenly realize that they are really a group of lovely pirates. He nodded with satisfaction: "Once someone breaks Whitebeard's benevolence, he will definitely be greeted by death, even if he is a Celestial Dragon."

Urki frowned: "We have heard about Whitebeard's horror too many times. It's just that the Celestial Dragons will be afraid of him if they don't see him."

"The only man among the Whitebeard Pirates who can compete with Roger, the Pirate King."

"Undoubtedly the strongest in the world."

"He is the man closest to "one piece". "

James' three consecutive sentences were so decisive and conclusive that Ulki and the others opened their mouths, but could not say any words: because this is the fact.

Seeing everyone's silence, James began to follow suit: "To be more specific, the pirates in the new world are completely different from the pirates in the Four Seas and the first half. First of all, the scale. Is there a blackboard?"

James stretched out his finger and waved it in the air, then committed the old habit and Aphra stood up: "Yes, I bought it specially when I taught you how to read. Please wait a moment."

Not long after, James, who was setting up the blackboard, took chalk and wrote Whitebeard's name on the top of the blackboard, and added the title "Dad" in brackets: "In the Whitebeard Pirates, all of them will call him " Dad". "

Sah, sah, James, who was writing quickly, then wrote thirteen names under Whitebeard's name: ""Phoenix" Marco, "Diamond" Joz, these 13 direct captains plus other members, these troops alone , is enough to attack the navy headquarters, and Zhi"

James drew a horizontal line under Thirteen's name, and wrote a series of pirate group names below: ""Swordsman of Love" Delakhi, "Walrus" Eruwan, "Big Vortex Spider" Si Couyard"

When the names of dozens of pirate groups appeared densely on the blackboard, a dead silence fell on the deck, and there was even the sound of swallowing saliva. It turned out that the Whitebeard Pirates were so powerful, so powerful that no one could even challenge them. Don't even dare to rise

"I don't know the exact strength of their troops alone, 3 or 5. It is these people, coupled with Whitebeard's force, that they dominate the vast territorial waters and are not known by pirates, but by the world. He is the emperor of the sea."

"Teacher James has so many Whitebeard's men, how can they operate for this? Just relying on plundering won't work at all, right?"

The young monk Ian once again mentioned the key part of the problem. James looked like a coward: "Good question. The reason why they can maintain the operation of the big pirate group is by paying tribute."

"pay tribute"

"To put it simply, it means paying protection fees."

Ulki explained casually for those who didn't understand, and James immediately added: "To be specific, it ranges from the trade of goods, the arrangement of port workers, the catering industry and other legitimate industries, to the hosting of casinos, flower streets, entertainment performances, bodyguards ,as well as"

James paused for a moment, his expression slightly complicated, but he continued: "As well as the smuggling of weapons and the provision of troops for war, it can be said that all economic matters within territorial waters are inextricably linked to the Whitebeard Pirates. Of course, There are exceptions, which is to only borrow Whitebeard's flag, so that you only need to pay a certain amount of Bailey regularly to maintain relative independence."

"Is this still a pirate?"

“Too professional”

"It's not an exaggeration to say it's a country, right? The world government doesn't care about the navy, right?"

James' words caused an uproar in the crowd. After discussing with each other, they also understood that the pirates in the four seas and the first half of the Grand Route he mentioned before were indeed different from the pirates in the New World, or that their pirate behavior was compared with that of the other party. It's almost like playing house.

"It's not that I don't care, it's that I can't interfere. In the new world, even the franchising countries will be protected by them once they plant the flag of Whitebeard. Even if the navy passes by his territory, they must pay tolls, otherwise they will be ignored. Mercilessly drive away or even sink warships. If anyone dares to invade the island guarded by this flag, even if he escapes to the ends of the earth, he will be found by Whitebeard's captains and pirates, and then killed."

"Gudong"

James's 100% affirmative tone made everyone swallow their saliva. No wonder the "Murloc Island" with Whitebeard's flag is so peaceful. It turns out that this all depends on Whitebeard's reputation.

Ulki frowned: "It is said that the Navy is the largest pirate gang in the world, but in the New World, they have no sense of existence. Aren't there several naval branches starting with "g" here? They have nothing to do."

"The establishment of "G Branch" is just to occupy strategic locations. The most important thing is the world conference held every four years. It is usually used to escort some dignitaries who come to the new world. In the end, the so-called Navy Headquarters is just a service. It's just the military power of the world government. "

James spoke so eloquently that Ulki had to be convinced: "Is the other sea emperor Big also so powerful?"

"Charlotte Lingling's words are fundamentally different from Whitebeard's power."

Whoa, whoa, whoa. After picking up the blackboard eraser and erasing the previously written name, James wrote the word "All Nations" in the middle of the top: "The nature of the Whitebeard Pirates is, in a sense, more like " "Mercenary" The relationship between the payer and the employer is relatively equal, but Big Mom is different. This cunning female pirate has established a real country. "

Aphra, who was originally quiet, suddenly asked: "When we were in the "Paradise" in the first half of the World, we always heard rumors that the lives of the residents there were very similar to those of the residents of the Kingdom of Heaven.Teacher James, is this true?"

Swish James did not answer directly, but erased all the kingdoms and re-wrote "Totland", and wrote Wanguo in parentheses after the name: "The Kingdom of Totland is the dream country established by Auntie herself. , with more than 30 islands, millions of people, and dozens of different races living there.”

Afra's eyes flashed: "There are dozens of different races in the dream country"

"The people living in Totland are indeed very similar to those in the Kingdom of Heaven, but they are fundamentally different."

James, who was holding a piece of chalk, drew a vertical line directly under "Totland" on the blackboard, wrote "Lifespan" and then said: "Living in the Kingdom of Heaven only requires you to abide by the "Cloud Law", but in Totland To live in Lan, you need to pay 2 months of your life every year. "

Urki's face became solemn: "Is it possible to pay for something like lifespan?"

"The soul fruit can easily play with other people's souls. Auntie has this ability. It is said that a great pirate who killed countless people went to Cake Island to meet Auntie. He was shocked by the opponent's aura and lost all his possessions in an instant. life."

There was even a look of fear on James' face when he replied.

"This is a desecration of life"

In the same opinion, Aphra and Urqui think that if their lifespan is taken away, it means that their souls no longer exist.

Although there are huge cognitive differences. For example, Sister Aphra believes that people who have lost their souls cannot go to heaven, while Monk Urki believes that people who have been deprived of their lives cannot have an afterlife after reincarnation.

"It is unforgivable. This is a sin ten or a hundred times more serious than killing."

"Auntie must be punished"

"Even if we pay the price with our lives"

Facing these people who were suddenly filled with righteous indignation, James wisely did not speak. This is faith.

"Everyone be quiet and continue to listen to Mr. James' speech."

Urki immediately stopped everyone's behavior, but the "fire" in his eyes betrayed him. He was eager to fight, and tried to beat Big Mom, the demon who blasphemed life.

James stared deeply at Ulki and spoke slowly: "If the big family built by Whitebeard is the kind without blood relations, then Auntie rules the country entirely by blood relations."

James picked up the chalk again and wrote the common titles of "husband, son, daughter" on the blackboard: "There are more than 120 aunts in these direct relatives alone. If you include those who are related by blood and spouses, No one knows how many, and it is thanks to these relatives that her rule in Totland is as stable as a mountain."

Ulki gently twisted the red rosary beads on his chest: "What about strength?"

"There are hundreds of people with abilities who have eaten Devil Fruit, and the army like Whitebeard starts with tens of thousands. There are also plants, animals, and even furniture that she personally gave souls to. They can all be counted as a fighting force. Although she herself Not as powerful as Whitebeard, but the gap won’t be too big.”

"all these are"

"It is recognized that like Whitebeard, this is the prestige she has accumulated over the years."

James who spoke looked at Ulki again but found that not only did he not flinch in his eyes, but his expression became firmer: This is the scary thing about faith.

Faith can make people fearless of life and death, and moving forward bravely can also make people crazy and lose their minds.

"Mr. James, please give us some useful advice."

"Is it useful?"

"Then let's talk about it individually and in detail. Everyone else should go their own way and don't disturb the two of us."

Ulki, who saw James' hesitation, stood up and ended the conversation with a wave of his hand. He happened to have some other questions that he wanted to ask the man who claimed to be a "country teacher."
