Pirates: Who is the real sun god?

The next day, the sky was about to brighten and the sun had not yet risen, but under Morgans' operation, the whole world once again started live broadcast. People all over the world woke up from their dreams, looked at the big screens in various places, and paid attention to a newborn behemoth.

At this time, in the center of Iliad, there is a luxurious palace. The palace is on a high platform, which is the highest position in Iliad.

In front of the palace, Barrett, wearing red armor and a golden cloak, stood at the forefront of the palace. Jhin and Delia were half a body length behind him respectively. Johnson and others all changed into new clothes, and stood behind them all in high spirits and excitedly.

The area below the palace was already surrounded by people, and it was bustling with noise and noise.

However, the people looking at Barrett on the podium had different expressions, some happy, some resentful, some excited, and some hateful.

"Johnson, Ares raises the flag."

Barrett looked into the distance and saw the sun completely fall off the mountain and rise from the east. The corners of his mouth curled up and he began to give orders.

"Yes, boss."

Johnson and Ares ran swiftly to the flagpole in the center of the palace and quickly raised the former flag of heaven.

The flag quickly rose into the air and fluttered in the wind. The divine bird on the flag seemed like it would break away at any time and soar in the wind.

"Should we start?"

“Is our country going to be replaced soon?”

"Augusta National is going to be a thing of the past."

"..."

As the flag rose, the people below became more sad and more excited.

"Everyone——"

Barrett leaped to the mid-air and paused, looking down, and said loudly, "I think everyone knows me. Some people call me the devil, and some call me the East Emperor, but from today on, I am the Lord of Lingxiao, the Sun God Emperor."

"I declare that the Lingxiao Empire will be established with Helios Island as the center of the Lingxiao Empire, Iliad as the imperial capital, and the surrounding islands as the foundation."

The Sun Emperor

The Sun Emperor

As soon as these words fell, countless people bowed and shouted “Sun Emperor”.

Barrett was hanging high in the air, accepting thousands of salutes, domineering and noble, like a god.

This scene shocked everyone outside the screen, and made them think that this is what a real man should do.

Immediately afterwards, Barrett stood in the air and started promoting the new army. The names of General Jiuyang, General Twelve Moons, and Thirty-six Tiangang Generals spread throughout the sea. What's more, a large number of people went out to sea, wanting to come to the Eastern Region to compete for general positions.

The people at the Navy Headquarters and Mary Joa had gloomy faces, gritting their teeth as they watched Barrett on the screen. Barrett had completely stolen their system and expanded it to show off his grandeur.

A few hours later, the live broadcast ended, and the Lingxiao Empire was officially located in the east of the New World. Although there was no congratulations from the other four emperors of the New World, there was no disruption from the navy and the world government, and the entire process of nation-building went very smoothly.

Afterwards, Barrett summoned the leaders of the countries in the Eastern Region and personally appointed Sai Li and others to their positions. After discussion, only the independence of the six countries outside Rock Island was retained and they became affiliated kingdoms of the Lingxiao Empire. However, the six countries had to pay tribute every year according to the size of the country, ranging from 500 million to 2 billion. Other countries were all transformed into cities of the Lingxiao Empire.

At this point, Lingxiao incorporated more than a dozen islands, and the entire Lingxiao Empire had forty-eight islands. The population base reached 300 million, making it the largest country in the world.

Finally, Barrett appointed mayors of various cities, issued new laws and taxes, and all the royal families whose titles had been revoked were left behind, leaving it to Johnson and others to eliminate hidden dangers.

By the time all negotiations were completed, it was already early morning the next day.

The Barrett couple and Jhin's family hurriedly handed over matters to Sally Johnson and others, and then went home to sleep.

-

Time passed, and in the blink of an eye three years had passed, and it was now 1510.

After three years, the world situation has not changed much. Except for the change of the Navy's marshal, the three monsters and Fujitora becoming the admiral, there have not been many changes. The other four emperors are still stable, and the other pirates are just making small moves.

And the Lingxiao Empire was secretly developing in such a stable environment.

Barrett made a deal with the Golden Lion and used the Golden Lion's ability to integrate Lingxiao's islands. Except for Leah Island, Rock Island and Thunder God Island, other islands were integrated into sixteen new large fused islands.

Combining the memories of his previous life with the actual situation, Barrett developed commerce and agriculture, set up hospitals, orphanages and various institutions, and at the same time improved the treatment of soldiers, putting the entire Lingxiao into a period of rapid development.

Under this subtle influence, the people of Lingxiao have come to accept the Lingxiao Empire and regard themselves as Lingxiao people.

With this recognition, the military's recruitment work proceeded rapidly. In just three years, the navy had reached 200,000 people and the army had reached 80,000 people.

This is the result of Jhin's forced order to stop conscription. If he continued to recruit, a full army of 500,000 would be a piece of cake.

Everyone's strength has also improved significantly. Among them, Johnson has achieved the fourth stage of Armament Haki, and his overall strength has reached that of a junior general. He was the first to be promoted to Nine Yang General, ranking after Jhin.

Xiliu and others were stimulated. Xiliu also broke through to the great swordsman in one fell swoop half a year ago, and comprehended Ryuo, becoming a general-level strongman and the third Nine Yang General.

Jinbe also came from behind and reached the fourth stage of Armament Haki, becoming the fourth Nine Yang General.

Relatively speaking, the talents of Ares and others are much worse, and their strength has not improved much, only hovering at the level of quasi-general.

Enelu, Simba, Arlong, and Lime Jones are even more extraordinary. In just three years, both their fruits and domineering abilities have been greatly improved. Among them, Enelu is the most abnormal. A month ago, with the help of the Thunder Fruit, he cultivated his observation Haki to the top level. However, unlike the original, Enelu's derived ability is not the mind-reading ability in the original, but the ability to predict the future.

Moreover, with the assistance of Barrett, he developed the BUG move of the electromagnetic gun. Although his armament color did not reach the fourth stage, with the assistance of the fruit, his overall strength reached the admiral level and he became the fifth Nine Yang Admiral.

Simba and his two companions also became Lieutenant General Mingyue.

The newly joined Weipa and others also comprehended the dual-color domineering power and controlled the fruit through hard training, and became Major General of the Stars. Cloe, with his intelligent mind, won the trust of Barrett and Jhin, and was specially appointed as the chief of staff of the Lingxiao Army, with a position equivalent to that of Lieutenant General Mingyue, and formed a general staff.

Finally, after three years of development, the strength of Lingxiao Empire has been greatly enhanced. Among them, there are five generals including Jiuyang and Jin, five lieutenant generals of Mingyue, and the largest number of major generals of Fanxing. Many newcomers have emerged from various armies, and there are now twenty-five of the thirty-six generals.

However, relatively speaking, Barrett's plan to go to Sky Island to practice can only be put on hold temporarily.

He flies high into the sky to practice every day, and the effect is not bad, just a little tiring. In the past three years, he has been able to absorb the sun's rays for two hours at an altitude of 20,000 meters. His strength has increased a lot again. According to his estimation, he is no weaker than Kaido in terms of physique. Even if his armament domineering is not as good as Garp, it is not much different from Whitebeard and others. The fruit is only one step away from awakening.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that there were several good news during this year.

The first thing is that after seeing the prosperity of the High Sky Empire, Neptune and Otohime found Barrett on Fishman Island and were willing to take the initiative to remove the title of the kingdom of the Fishman Kingdom and migrate the fishmen to the High Sky Empire. This time they even brought their two-year-old daughter, Poseidon Shirahoshi.

After careful consideration, Barrett let Neptune retain the Fish-Man King and lead a group of fish-men to continue to guard Fish-Man Island.

He generously took out a medium-sized island next to Helios, named it Fishman Port, as a habitat for the fishmen.

Moreover, after getting along with each other, Delia liked Xiao Baixing very much and adopted her as her goddaughter. She even built a large swimming pool for Xiao Baixing outside Lingxiao Palace.

Because of this, Barrett often complained about Delia's waste of time and money.

The natural result was that they were attacked by a large army led by Delia. After all, Little White Star looked just like his father and mother and was very cute.

However, Barrett also liked Shirahoshi very much. He ordered that he be canonized as Princess Yuyang, and asked Jinbei to find several powerful fishmen to protect Shirahoshi.

After all, Little White Star is not only cute, but also has an extraordinary status and is very important.

The second thing was Johnson. With the help of Delia and others, he finally found a female warrior with giant blood to marry and gave birth to a child, whom Barrett named Jason with a sense of humor.

The third thing is about the younger generation in the family. In the past three years, Barrett has intensified his training efforts. After three years of hard training, the group of little brats have become much stronger and their strength has improved greatly. The most gratifying ones are the Xingyu brothers and sisters, and little Yanyue. During the three years of training, under the pressure of Barrett's Dominant Color, they have awakened their Dominant Color one after another, which made Barrett and Jin happy for a long time. However, Yanxing and Yanri are a little worse. Although their defects have been made up by Jin's ancestral blood, they are still a little worse in talent and have been beaten many times for this.

However, Jin has a total of five children. Little Yanluo, born to Achina, is gifted. After his bloodline was replenished, he became gifted. Once, when he was fighting with Shirahoshi for a toy, the two little brats awakened their domineering color at the same time.

Everyone was surprised and speechless at the same time.

The last thing made Barrett happiest. After years of searching and exploring, half a year ago, the merman finally found the giant lantern fish. However, it was not convenient for Barrett to leave, so he asked several mermen to follow and keep an eye on the whereabouts of the lantern fish.

As soon as I have free time here, I will go looking for lantern fish.

In general, everything was moving in a good direction. The only regret was that when Enel and Ares went to find Germa, they were stopped by the Navy and the World Government, and Vinsmoke Judge took away along with the research materials.

This also made Ling Xiao far behind in weapons research.
