From Pirates to Sweeping the Worlds

"You can't protect the Golden Bell with your strength!" Xia Jieren said bluntly at the beginning.

Upon hearing this, Gan Fore and the elders were all silent.

Although I don't want to admit it, this is the fact.

The crowd watching, whether they were members of the God Team or the Guerrillas, all lowered their heads in silence, with unwillingness written all over their faces.

Taking in everyone's expressions, Xia Jieren felt secretly proud.

He decided to add fuel to the fire.

"As long as those people on the sea know the existence of the Golden Bell, they will come to snatch it at all costs!"

"Humph! We Shandians will never surrender."

"That's right!"

"In the name of the great warrior Kalgara, we will resist to the end."

"..."

The warriors of Shandia were immediately excited.

The elder remained silent. After a while, he looked up at Xia Jieren and said, "Sir, please speak directly if you have anything to say."

"In that case, I won't hide it!"

"I want to recruit you!" Xia Jieren directly stated his purpose.

"Impossible! The Shandian people will never surrender!" Before the elder could say anything, Wepa jumped out and refused.

Many of the Shandia people looked at him with hostility.

Xia Jieren remained calm, still maintaining a decent smile, waiting for the elder's answer.

The elder stared at Xia Jieren, thinking quickly.

After a while, the elder asked in a quiet tone, "What if we refuse?"

"It doesn't matter!" Xia Jieren said nonchalantly, as if whether the Shandians surrendered or not was a trivial matter.

Everyone present was stunned. They obviously did not expect Xia Jieren to answer like this.

To be honest, Xia Jieren really looked down upon the power of the Shandian people.

The purpose of subjugating the Shandians was just to obtain the Golden Bell in a reasonable way.

Even if they didn't agree, Xia Jieren could still spread the news and intervene when someone came to snatch the golden bell.

"Submit to me! This is your chance. It depends on whether you can seize it."

"Now, the Great Pirate Era is surging, and the war is ongoing on the sea. I believe that it won't be long before even Sky Island will be involved in the war."

"By then, you will have to face waves of vicious pirates."

"If you don't have enough strength, you will die and your clan will be destroyed."

Xia Jieren admired the Shandia people's loyalty and righteousness, so he gave them a few more suggestions.

"So what!" Weipa still refused to accept.

"Wepa, calm down!" Gan Fowle tried to dissuade him.

Weipa glanced at him coldly and said coldly: "Don't order me around!"

"If the Shandia tribe submits to you, what price will they have to pay?" The elder looked at Xia Jieren seriously.

"There's hope!" Xia Jieren thought, and then he replied, "We don't need to do anything special, we just need to protect the Golden Bell."

"Is it that simple?" The elder was a little bit unbelieving.

"To be honest, the power of your Shandia clan is dispensable to me!" Xia Jieren inadvertently said a very cruel fact.

But he didn't notice it at all, and continued: "Even after you surrender, I will send some forces to stay on [Sky Island] to protect your personal safety."

"You know, once you ring the Golden Bell, the pirates on Gaya Island below will immediately know the location of the Golden Country."

"They will rush to board the Sky Island and grab the gold!" Xia Jieren glanced at everyone with a smile.

After a long silence, the elder said solemnly: "Okay! We, the Shandia clan, submit to you."

"Elder..." Weipa said reluctantly.

"Wepa, once the lights of [Shandora] are lit, our mission will be completed, and we won't have to fight anymore!" The elder stared at Wepa with an extremely serious look in his eyes.

"A wise choice!" Xia Jieren's mouth curled up slightly.

Led by the elders, all the people of Shandia paid homage.

Xia Jieren quickly helped the elder up and signaled that this was not necessary.

After dealing with the Shandians, Xia Jieren turned his attention to Gan Ful.

Seeing this, Gan Fore knew it was time for him to make his own choice.

Immediately, he smiled bitterly and said, "I don't think I have any other choice!"

"We [Kingdom of God] will also join your army." Gan Fore bowed slightly to Xia Jieren.

"Good! Good!" Xia Jieren cheered repeatedly, and it was obvious that he was very happy.

"From now on, you two must get along well with each other. The affairs of [Sky Island] will be left to you two." Xia Jieren ordered.

"Yeah! x2" The elder and Gan Fore nodded slightly.

Weipa said unhappily: "The people of Sky Island drove us out of our homeland for 400 years. How can we forgive them so easily?"

"That's right!"

"Yes!"

"..."

The Shandia people echoed.

Gan Foer said guiltily: "I don't want to refute the mistakes of my ancestors."

"If you are not satisfied, you can take my life anytime you want!"

"Lord Gan Fol!" the members of the God Team shouted with emotion.

The way everyone in Shandia looked at Gan Fowle also changed slightly.

At this time, Xia Jieren stood up and said, "Okay!"

"That's it!"

"Both the people of Sky Island and Shandia are tired of war."

"And...if my measurements are correct, the Sky Islanders and the Shandians have the same ancestors."

"What!" Xia Jieren's words were earth-shattering, leaving everyone present dumbfounded.

"Really?" Gan Fowl asked excitedly.

Robin stepped forward and said, "It should be true."

She pointed to the wings behind everyone and said, "The Shandians had this culture before they arrived at Sky Island."

"This shows that you have the same culture and most likely the same ancestors."

"However, I don't know in which era, Shandia's ancestors left [Sky Island] and came to [Qinghai] to reproduce and thrive."

After listening to Robin's explanation, the God Team and the Shandians looked at each other with complicated feelings.

The enemy that we have fought for 400 years might actually be our compatriots.

Everyone didn't know what to say.

Weipa was also rarely silent.

Xia Jieren smiled and took over the conversation: "So, you two should get along well!"

"[Apa Yaduo] will continue to be a holy place in the future. The people of Sky Island and Shandia can enter and exit at any time."

"However, it is best to choose a place to live outside of [Apa Yaduo] and preserve the ecology of [Apa Yaduo] as much as possible."

"The Golden Bell will be returned to the Shandora ruins, and I will be responsible for sending people to repair it."

"In addition, I will dispatch more than 10,000 combat units like flying dragons to guard the Sky Island."

Xia Jieren said a lot in one breath.

I looked around and saw no one raised any objections.

Finally, Xia Jieren announced: "Three days later, call all the Shandians and Sky Islanders to gather in [Shandora] and ring the golden bell."
