I can only achieve nothing and become the Pirate King.

Chapter 593: All Rocks

Conquer, conquer, and fucking conquer!
Rule, rule, and still fucking rule!

There were deaths at the World Conference, the Revolutionary Army surrounded Marijoa and cut off the Celestial Dragons' food supply, and the allied countries cut off their supply. In the chaos of the world, the first half of the New World seemed much more monotonous.

The navy has neither the spare energy nor the willpower to fight against Sage, who is only thinking about continuing to expand, taking the island's rich resources and population, and converting them into productivity.

As for overproduction, there is no need to worry about it.

Because the population is indeed not enough. For an ordinary island that doesn't even have a kingdom system, it would be a blessing if it has a population of 10,000. Most of the time, the population is around 3,000 to 5,000.

With such a small number of people, it is not enough to develop the local resources of the island, let alone significantly expand Sage's productivity.

But overall, it is better than a chaotic world.

"How's the contact with the people in Alabasta going?"

In the large bathroom in the palace.

Sager was still leaning against the bathtub to take a bath, but this time he did not look back. He stood up in the smoke, asked the maids to wrap a bath towel around him, walked out of the bathroom, and looked at Lily who was coming towards him.

"I haven't contacted you yet, but there is something you need to decide personally."

Lily was holding a notebook. Unlike the dresses she always wore before, this time she was wearing a black secretary dress. The hip skirt only reached her thighs, revealing her plump and round thighs, which reflected luster even in the mist.

The upper body looks very upright but not shaky because of the tight shirt that wraps around the peak but is supported by the formal suit outside.

Sager brushed past her and walked to the lounge outside the bathroom, reclining on the luxurious gold-rimmed sofa.

Lily approached with her legs crossed, first going to the wine cabinet and picking up a bottle of red wine, "Musigny, please?"

As Sager nodded, she opened the bottle of red wine which normally costs 500,000 Baileys, and this ten-year-old bottle has a market price of 2 million Baileys. She picked up another wine glass and poured a glass for Sager, saying:

"Palu discovered the navy preparing to use force on an island and has arrested them. Should we negotiate with the navy or execute them on the spot?"

She reported in detail the navy's plan to plunder places where human rights were not respected.

These navy guys, since they involve colonels, are different from the usual situations where they are defeated or killed on the spot. Since they have been captured, they will be used accordingly.

They are no longer ordinary pirates.

"Is there such a good thing?"

Sager said with a smile: "This is so simple. Start a live broadcast and distribute newspapers. Send out all the islands that are not member countries to the underground world one by one, report in detail, and then execute them in public."

"We must make it clear what the stakes are and let those people know that the World Government will not only ignore them, but will harm them. But it's different here. No matter who he is, no matter what he has done, as long as he doesn't violate my rules, I will take him in and I will give him a job to do."

"Those guys who hate chaos and pirate attacks"

Sager picked up the wine glass and drank it all. "Let them choose for themselves. If neither side can beat them, they might as well find one to join."

"Understood. I'll arrange it right away." Lily nodded.

"Let the Cross Guild know about this. They will definitely be willing to do it."

Although they don't have many channels, they also have their own printing industry. In addition, the Cross Guild now has a good influence in the world, and Lao Sha and his team have channels. Even if they can't spread it all over the world, at least it can affect a large area.

In addition to connecting the population of Alabasta, he could also make people yearn for his place, and it would be best if this could be achieved by going out to sea.

No matter what, those who can reach the new world are definitely not weak.

……

The first half of the Grand Line, Nine Snake Island.

"I'm old."

Rayleigh, with white hair, stood in a ruin and shook his head. "Although Blackbeard retreated due to the threat, I may not be able to defeat him alone."

Beside him, Hancock, who was wearing a high-slit cheongsam with the thighs slit all the way to the base of her thighs, bit her thumb with a gloomy look on her face.

As soon as the resolution to abolish the Seven Warlords of the Sea was abolished, people came to attack this side immediately. Hancock didn't care at first. She didn't know about other people, but the reason why the few people she knew, including herself, were able to become Seven Warlords of the Sea was not because of fame, but purely because of their strength.

But unexpectedly, Blackbeard came and attacked her. She didn't even have time to release her ability before she was attracted and strangled by the neck. If Rayleigh hadn't arrived in time, it would be hard to say what the outcome would have been.

But that guy finally left with a naval colonel. The colonel was tough enough to exchange himself for the remaining captured sailors and left with Blackbeard.

"The question now is, Hancock, what should we do."

Granny New walked over to Hancock with her cane, looking at the ruins and sighing, "The world has changed dramatically, and the legal position to protect our country has disappeared. Now we must make a choice, otherwise we will be attacked by three parties."

"The navy, pirates, and those hunters who covet the Nine Snake Island." Grandma New said in a low voice.

"Oh? Your judgment is correct." Rayleigh smiled and said, "Long time no see, Guroliosa."

"Roger is dead, why don't you go down and accompany him! Also, my name is Granny New now!"

The short New Granny glanced at Rayleigh with disdain, "Stop calling me by that name. It's all history, just like you."

They had fought a good battle in the battle of God's Valley, and even though it had been so many years, there were times when she couldn't help but reminisce and feel disgusted at the same time.

It was this guy and his captain who defeated their invincible Rocks.

"Three parties?" Hancock raised her head and looked at the sky.

If she was alone, this matter wouldn't matter at all. The worst that could happen was that she would just continue to go out to sea.

But as the queen of Amazon Lily, she must be responsible for the people of the entire island.

Moreover, the navy and pirates are easy to deal with, but what they are afraid of are the third parties, those who covet the Nine Snake Island.

The island of Nine Snakes is inhabited by women, and is also a mysterious island in the eyes of the world. An island full of women will naturally attract the attention of others. For the sake of this mystery, they will risk their lives to enter the island of Nine Snakes. As long as they catch one...
It’s probably just too expensive!

Hancock, who had once been a slave, knew this very well.

The queens before her, the previous generation, and the previous generation, were unable to solve this problem. It was only after the position of Shichibukai came into being that the problem was alleviated.

But now, is it going to happen again?

No matter how unique the geographical location is, it cannot satisfy people's greed.
"Now, we have three options."

Granny New held up three fingers and said, "Submit to the World Government, pay at least 10 billion Heavenly Gold every year, and become a legal country." "Impossible!" Hancock refused directly.

Not to mention that there is no such thing as money on Nine Snake Island. They have been living by plundering for generations. Even if they want money, they have to have something to sell, right?

What can you sell?
Huge beast?

Or local fruit?
It's impossible for them to earn so much in a year. This is just the tax, not to mention their own living expenses. They can't even starve to death.

Besides, she has a bounty on her back, so if she has this idea, she will probably get into trouble first.

"Hancock, listen to me, things are different now. The Revolutionary Army launched the Eight-Nation Revolution and refused to pay the Heavenly Gold to the World Government. If we surrender now, with your strength, the World Government might agree. As long as we become a legal country, our people will have 'human rights', and your bounty will be revoked, as long as..."

"As long as I kneel down to the Celestial Dragons?!"

Hancock said coldly: "Even if I die, I will not do this! Stop talking!"

"Then the second one."

Granny New bent her second finger, "Join the Scourge."

Hearing this, Hancock and Rayleigh were both stunned.

"Act of God."

Rayleigh stroked his white beard and nodded. "It's a good idea, but the geographical location is not good. We are separated by a red earth continent."

With how powerful they are, the Calm Belt isn't a problem, but the key is that even if they cross it, it's useless because the natural barrier is blocking their way. There is no other way except to go to Fishman Island.

But they cannot leave this island. They have lived here for generations and will not evacuate.

"The Scourge has a way. If you join him, he will definitely welcome you. Although there are some risks, with the help of the Four Emperors' reputation and you, Hancock, the navy will not easily make any moves. But there is also a danger. That is, once a war breaks out, we will be the first to bear the brunt. But the good thing is that, apart from the navy, anyone else who dares to covet this island will be punished by the Scourge."

Granny New still has some confidence in natural disasters.

That guy is the most powerful pirate. Not only that, he definitely has connections in the underground world and is the leader. No matter whether they are pirates or slave traders, they are all afraid of that guy.

"Do not."

Hancock shook his head and said, "I heard that under his rule, everyone has to work and pay taxes for him. Those who live there are not so much freedom as another kind of slaves. They seem free, but if they leave without permission, it will be worse than death. Sarge is just a second type of Celestial Dragon."

"Besides, that guy is also profit-oriented. If there is no benefit, he will not agree so easily! I know the fur tribe. They just surrender to Sage and sell their fighting power in exchange for Sage's support. I don't want this country to become like that."

What else can pirates talk about if not interests?
Benevolence and righteousness?

Benevolence and righteousness should also be placed below interests.

A pirate who values ​​benevolence and justice is an individual, while a pirate who values ​​interests is a group.

Sager has built up such a powerful power at such a young age, he can't be an idiot.

Moreover, the geographical location is also very important. Nine Snake Island cannot obtain the powerful productivity in Sag's territory, and it does not want all the members of Nine Snake Island to work for Sag!
"the last one."

Granny New held up her third finger and said, "Join the Cross Guild."

"Ok?"

Hancock frowned, "The power founded by that red nose?"

"Yes, 'Senryodo' Buggy, he is also one of the 'Four Emperors', but the difference is that he does not have the ruling power as strong as Calamity, and is more inclined to the alliance. Otherwise, Crocodile and Hawkeye would not have joined. You are also one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. If you go there, you will also become a member of the alliance. With the powerful strength of the four of you, by then... Rayleigh, what are you laughing at?"

Granny New glared at Rayleigh who was laughing in the middle of his conversation.

"Bucky!"

Rayleigh laughed: "Nothing, just surprised. The former trainee sailors have become the most famous sea emperors one by one."

"Yes, he is indeed a crew member on Roger's ship. The other one is Shanks, who used to be a trainee crew member under you. They are both very powerful. If you know about Buggy, you can tell me about him." said Granny New.

"Um"

Rayleigh looked up at the sky, smiling and thinking, and after a long while he said, "Well, Buggy is actually good at water battles. If he is in the water, he has the same sea power as the fishman."

"Huh? Isn't he a person with special abilities?" Hancock frowned.

"Yes."

Rayleigh shrugged, "So, I was also quite surprised. Anyway, if you want to contact the Cross Guild, it would be a good idea. Mihawk and Crocodile are all Shichibukai like you, so you should have common topics."

Granny New nodded in agreement, but Hancock was a little perceptive.

Mihawk, Crocodile.
Why no mention of Bucky?
Come to think of it, is that guy really that strong? He could actually be above those two arrogant guys and become the president of the Cross Guild.
"If we join the Cross Guild, we will still have the conveniences mentioned before. The Cross Guild threatens the entire navy. At the same time, as one of the Four Emperors, that force can also protect us from the threats of slave traders and other pirates." said Granny New.

The pros and cons of all three parties are all here.

The world government is the most stable, but Hancock needs to put aside his dignity, and the people of Nine Snake Island will be safe, but they will starve because of the problem of heavenly gold.

The natural disaster side is the best, but also the worst. Maybe everything has been solved, but it requires risking your life, and when the navy wants to deal with them, Nine Snake Island will be the first to bear the brunt, and the risks encountered at that time may be even greater.

The Cross Guild was not stable, and the treatment was not that good, but the risks and threats were reduced to a medium level. But the most important thing was that she still had power there.

Hancock put down her bitten thumb and shouted, "I can join the Cross Guild! They will definitely need strength. If so, I will definitely not be rejected!"

The bounty navy force certainly needs more forces to join, and it is an alliance, so it doesn't have to be there all the time. It just needs to maintain the alliance relationship.

Granny New looked at Hancock who had made the decision and sighed, "They are all like Rocks."

Blackbeard occupied Beehive Island, his former home, and used the power of the Pirate Center to attract all pirates.

Natural disaster, on the other hand, possesses the most powerful military force and influence, and is also the most powerful Rocks at one time.

The Cross Guild, which brings together powerful pirates as an alliance, is also a kind of Rocks.

She had experienced that era and knew how powerful Rocks was at that time. Now, each of these powerful pirates had chosen one of them and established his own power.

After thirty-eight years, the former pirate group was resurrected in a different way.
