Pirate: I am invincible if I like farming.

The new world is in turmoil at this time, when the real heroes are vying for the throne.

As powerful as the Four Emperors, they were constantly facing provocations from a large number of pirate forces, and they all began to shrink their sphere of influence. After all, there are many strong and heroic people this time.

I don’t know if it was Finn’s words that awakened the big pirates who came out of Impel Down City, and pointed out the direction of realizing the original dream in their hearts.

The aloof red Baloric Redfield, World Destroyer Vardy, Evil King Avalo Pizarro and others have all found their own territory.

Most of them followed the example of Kaido of Wano Country, stationed in existing countries or regions in a similar capacity as Lord Protector, providing them with the protection of force, and at the same time developing their own power.

After all, in the current new world, there is no check and balance of the navy, and the law of the jungle is completely interpreted, where the weak eat the strong and the strong are respected.

Not only did the presence of these big pirates not cause any resistance among the local residents, they were even welcomed and supported in some places.

Of course, it is also for those pirates who think about a long-term win-win situation, and those unattractive little pirates who only want to burn, kill and rob are definitely not included in this list.

It seems that everyone has realized that now they must either submit to the stronger one or stick together to keep warm and jointly fight against the power of the four emperors, otherwise it will be difficult to survive for a long time.

For a time, it was clear that the new world arms race was over, and the era of going it alone and fighting in small groups was over.

After all, even if he is as powerful as the Four Emperors, he still has a horde of subordinates.

In particular, the strength of the Four Emperors Shanks had been clearly demonstrated to them as early as when Malinfando fought against Finn. He was so powerful that few could match him.

However, we should not underestimate every powerful person who is famous in the sea. Many people are the strongest in an era, and they all have their own special skills.

Such as Momo Fruit, Island Fruit, etc., the abilities are all kinds of strange, and the ability itself is very beyond the standard. Combined with the ability user himself, it can completely display unimaginable combat power.

Of course, forming cliques to form forces is a general trend, but there are still alternatives. Douglas Barrett doesn't care about forces or partners. He only believes in his own strength as always.

After all, this is the seed that was planted in childhood. He pursues the supremacy of power. After a series of betrayals, he can no longer trust anyone, especially the weak, and it cannot be changed in a short time.

He wants to be the strongest, and then he won't have to rely on anyone, and he can surpass everything and gain everything with his own strength.

However, on the way to becoming the strongest, a young man like Finn appeared who was stronger than him. This also made him clear his stage goal. He must surpass Finn, otherwise he would not be the strongest.

But in the short term, it was obvious that he would not be able to beat Fein. They had fought against each other before, so it was impossible for him to not know this.

So, he proposed another real peak showdown two years later.

Finn agreed without hesitation, and in front of everyone, he spoke out his bold words. If he lost, he would give Atlantis to him and be willing to become his subordinate.

Such a huge gamble surprised everyone, but seeing Fein's unquestionable attitude, no one tried to persuade him. After all, Fein was now a super powerful man with a bounty of 50 billion.

Everyone began to look forward to who would be the strongest in two years, and they were all inspired by Finn's pride and confidence.

But how could Finn be unprepared? How could he not be able to defeat Barrett in two years? Wouldn't that be an insult to the qualifications that are proud of the past and the present? Wouldn't that be an insult to the word "exaggerated"?

To put it bluntly, this is actually a game that can demonstrate Finn's own courage and put Barrett on the fire. It also forces Barrett to show his courage and make the same commitment.

Finn knew very well that he would not lose. With such a zero-risk and high-reward thing, how could he not give it a try? By then, he had both recruited people and gained fame, which was like killing two birds with one stone.

Sure enough, this trick worked for Barrett, who made the same decision without hesitation. People who believe in the supremacy of power ultimately choose to believe in their own power.

He lost before because he did not show his due strength. The long-term detention made him very weak, but this was an excuse that he could not express. But he knew exactly what was going on.

Therefore, he was full of confidence in himself during this two-year appointment. I believe that as long as he fully exerts his strength, he will not be afraid of anyone.

After all, he is the "descendant of the devil", a hero known as the "successor of the devil".

After the agreement, the two conducted their own practices in different places in Atlantis. Of course, Barrett is purely practicing spiritual practice, while Fein is practicing spiritual practice while building the country.

What will happen in two years' time? Who will win in the end? But it made everyone on the island very excited and couldn't wait to wait and see.

However, how would they know that this was just a careful plan by the time traveler, and the result was already determined! ! !

……

After the Battle of Marinefando, the Whitebeard Pirates were severely weakened and were forced to re-plan their sphere of influence, retaining only half of their previous territory as their sphere of influence.

The main reason is that only half of the pirate group's formation is left, and it is difficult to replenish personnel in a short period of time. After all, this is an era where heroes compete for the throne, and all major pirates are recruiting troops to expand their power.

If you can't recruit people, you won't have the extra strength to guard so many territories. What's the use of taking over a territory that you can't defend.

Besides, Whitebeard himself knew very well that he was already old and could no longer fight on the battlefield like he did when he was young, and could only serve as a nuclear deterrent.

And now those who are pouring into the new world are all big pirates who have been famous for a long time. They have already been famous in the sea before, and they are not afraid of his intimidation at all.

Therefore, Whitebeard knows the situation better than anyone else. Now, he just wants to protect the remaining sons and smoothly pass the Whitebeard Pirates to Ace, his most valued son.

Whitebeard is no longer obsessed with the territory. Besides, the territory he owns now is enough to support the remaining staff.

Taking the initiative to give up unguarded territory leaves space for those big pirates to live and avoid unnecessary conflicts. It can be regarded as taking retreat as a way to advance, and it can also be regarded as the best choice at the moment.

Of course, this cannot be said to be that the Whitebeard Pirates are weak. No one dares to mess with them now. After the Battle of Marinefando, their reputation has once again spread all over the world.

Their power is at the peak of their power, but Whitebeard knows that this is just a matter of burning oil and flowers, and there is not much time left for them.

At this time, Ace seemed to have truly changed as a person. Perhaps it was due to the fact that so many brothers lost their lives to save him from Malinfando, that he felt very guilty and remorseful.

Every day, he either does strength training or is drilled by Whitebeard. From time to time, he was beaten by the team captains. Life was miserable, but he enjoyed it.

Ace knew that this incident was because he was beaten and arrested by the navy because of his lack of strength, which ultimately led to heavy losses to the Whitebeard Pirates.

So many people died for him, which was such a heavy pressure for a young man with strong self-esteem. Anyway, now he feels that he has no shame to show up everywhere.

He has become paranoid and believes that it is his own lack of strength that has led to such a tragedy.

Besides, he has always dreamed of becoming the strongest and surpassing Roger, and this incident has further strengthened his heart.

Ace now finally feels his responsibility and understands that the Whitebeard Pirates need him to take over.

It is impossible to leave this matter to anyone else, cannot refuse it, and no one can replace him.

Because it is impossible for others without the domineering domineering spirit to hold up the banner of the Yonkōri.

This unforgettable experience shattered the boy's innocent fantasy and brought the man completely into this real and cruel world.

Perhaps all that is needed for a boy to transform into a man is one unforgettable thing.

……

Of course, one person ushered in the fate of Luffy and Rayleigh, the master and disciple, meeting again.

Maybe it's the will of D that Luffy carries, maybe it's Roger's prophecy, or maybe it's the inheritance of Shanks' Straw Hat, but Rayleigh doesn't want to see such a good idea go to waste.

In this battle with Marinefando, Luffy saw the cruelty of the world. However, for him, this war was not enough to be unforgettable.

Because none of the people who died were his acquaintances, friends, or relatives. To him, the war was just a drama.

But Luffy also understands that his strength is not enough, so he trains hard every day, but without systematic teaching, his growth rate is extremely slow.

He once asked Fein for advice, and Fein always taught him everything without reservation. However, Finn himself is a dabbler. He is good at actual combat, but not good at teaching.

How could he compare to Rayleigh's experience and knowledge? He was just cheating.

The reunion of Luffy and Rayleigh is undoubtedly fate. Under Rayleigh's careful guidance, how will Luffy grow?
