One Piece: From the Rocks Era to King of the World

Chapter 246 Gold-Eating Ant King
"Sail!"

Soon, they arrived on the Hades. Yadina had prepared everything on the ship and was just waiting for Li Yuan to say something. The Hades would start immediately.

Hades looks bulky in this huge steel battleship, but it is very fast when sailing on the sea. Currently, the fastest ship in the world is Hades.

Hades sailed directly into the calm zone near Wano Country. With the seastone inlaid under the ship, Hades did not need to worry about attacks from sea kings at all.

"Husband, we have been searching for various islands in the Calm Belt over the years, and almost all of these islands have very rich resources. Now the Calm Belt can be said to be a resource library that is constantly waiting to be developed!"

Yadina lay lazily in Li Yuan's broad arms, drawing circles on Li Yuan's chest with her fingers as she narrated.

Although the Wuji Pirates have sold many ships that can sail without wind, and even many forces have mastered this technology.

But this technology has its limitations. Only those who possess powerful domineering Haki can rely on this kind of ship to sail in the calm zone.

Those who do not have the domineering aura that can intimidate the sea kings, even if their ships can only sail in the calm belt, will not dare to enter the calm belt, because that is the nest of the sea kings and the chance of being attacked by the sea kings is very high.

Currently, only the Wuji Pirates have mastered the technology to embed seastone on the bottom of the ship, and it has not yet been made public.

In other words, the only force that can develop the resources of the many islands in the Calm Belt is the Wuji Pirates, and at most a Golden Lion, who also likes to go to the Calm Belt to steal islands.

Over the years, the Promise Pirates have dispatched many ships to search for islands in the Calm Belt, and they mark down any they find.

On the surface, it seems that the territory and power of the Wuji Pirates have not increased over the years, but in fact, the territory of the Wuji Pirates has been constantly increasing.

"These resources are all raw resources. Only by converting them into commodities and then selling them can we maximize profits. Is our Wuji Pirates preparing to enter the Four Seas recently?"

Li Yuan rubbed Yadina's hair and said.

"Well, Sister Xia Qi's intelligence network has covered three sea areas. We can contact other forces in the four sea areas through underground forces. Then we will transport them from the Calm Belt to the Four Seas for sale."

"This will save a lot of transportation costs and allow us to develop our own caravan and network. We don't need to rely on others to do everything, which can easily lead to us being strangled."

Yadina said.

The others she was talking about were those people from the underground forces. After leaving the New World, the products of their Wuji Pirates would be sold by the underground forces.

Because the area outside the New World is the territory of the Navy and the World Government, once the Infinity Pirates blatantly start selling goods, many people would simply not dare to cooperate with them.

Even the World Government and the Navy will crack down on the caravans of the Promise Pirates, so they need to be sent to underground forces to sell, because there are illegal and dark transactions there.

Today, the Infinity Pirates have the closest relationship with Umit, the shipping king in the underground world. At the same time, Umit also relies on the Infinity Pirates to expand his business. For example, his transport ships have already spanned many places between the New World and the Four Seas.

But Yadina feels that Umit is not on the same page with the Promise Pirates yet, and that the transportation and sale of all goods cannot be handed over to Umit.

"I'm afraid it won't be that easy to open up our caravan. If we enter the Four Seas, we will be targeted by the World Government and the Navy."

Li Yuan smiled.

Li Yuan had no objection to Yadina's arrangements. After all, Yadina was now a qualified manager. For many things, Li Yuan only gave the general direction and Yadina could do things very well.

"Husband, have you forgotten? We have a space scroll. With the space scroll and Sister Xia Qi's mirror world, it's very easy to send the goods to any place we want."

"When the time comes, we will train a group of people in the Four Seas to specialize in transportation and trade with the forces in the Four Seas. We will not let those merchants know about the mirror world. They will only be responsible for trade."

Yadina said confidently.

"I see. This is indeed a lot simpler. However, we must keep it confidential and don't let outsiders know about the mirror world."

When Li Yuan first asked Xia Qi to create the mirror world, it was for the purpose of developing intelligence. Now, there is no problem for Yadina to use it to transport goods.

"We've arrived at Gravity Island!"

Li Yuan and Yadina chatted and soon arrived at the Gravity Island.

There are many tall trees on this island, but these trees grow in a crooked shape, obviously bent by the strong gravity.

"Brother, brother, it's delicious!!"

When the boat approached the Gravity Island, Yin Wa opened his mouth wide and saliva seemed to be flowing out, but unfortunately, he had no saliva to drool.

"Husband, I will go with you."

Yadina held Li Yuan's hand and walked onto the Gravity Island with Yin Wa.

"Roar!!!"

However, just as they arrived on the island, a three-meter-tall cheetah rushed out of the forest.

The ferocious cheetah moved at a very fast speed, and its claws shining with cold light pounced towards Li Yuan.

"Husband, let me come!"

Upon seeing this, Yadina immediately rushed out excitedly, and with a shave, she came directly to the side of the cheetah.

"Explosive shave!"

The armed color domineering aura covered her jade feet, and with a split kick, she kicked the cheetah dozens of meters away.

"Uh-huh!!!"

The next moment, a five-meter-tall tiger suddenly rushed out of the forest and pounced towards Yadina.

"Give me a sigh!"

However, facing this sudden attack from the tiger, Yadina did not dodge at all. Instead, she focused her eyes, and an invisible spiritual power instantly surged into the tiger's heart. "Bang!!"

The tiger, which had been extremely ferocious just now, suddenly fell to the ground, kneeling in front of Yadina with weak limbs. People who didn't know would think that Yadina had the domineering aura that frightened it.

"Husband, let's just ride it in."

Yadina happily trotted towards Li Yuan, like a little girl who wanted to show off herself.

When Yadina first followed Li Yuan, she could be said to be just an ordinary witch and had never received any training.

But since following Li Yuan, she began to exercise her body like Lazili. Later, Lazili prepared various medicinal baths, and Yadina also used them.

With the arrival of the gravity bracelet and the fighting pyramid, Yadina also often went to the fighting pyramid to hone herself.

She has now mastered dual-color Haki and possessed the Wisdom Heart Fruit, and is no worse than some captains of the Wuji Pirate Group.

Even though she was a civilian staff member, she still insisted on exercising because she knew that even if she didn't need to fight, she could at least protect herself and not let Li Yuan, who was fighting on the front line, worry about her safety.

"Okay!"

Li Yuan walked forward with a smile, sat on the tiger's back, and Yadina sat in front.

"Little tiger cub, let's go!"

Yadina was as happy as a little girl. She patted the tiger's head. Then the tiger stood up and carried Li Yuan and Yadina towards the forest.

At this moment, Yadina was like a girl riding a tiger, wandering freely in the forest with her man.

Whenever he encountered ferocious beasts, Li Yuan didn't have to take any action, as Yadina could deal with them alone, making Li Yuan feel like a gigolo. It seemed that being protected by his woman was also a good experience.

However, as they got closer to the center of the island, the gravity became stronger and stronger, and the tiger carrying them could no longer hold on.

"Let's go downstairs."

Li Yuan said as he looked at the tiger that was almost unable to walk.

"OK then!"

Yadina said regretfully.

"The gravity here has reached 15 times. It seems that the gravity of the gravity island here is very high."

Li Yuan said in surprise.

"Roar!!!"

Just when Li Yuan and the others wanted to keep going, three huge figures, almost eight meters tall, rushed over from the front, including a golden lion, a black gorilla, and a huge python.

These three giant beasts all exude a faint aura of the beast king, and most importantly, they actually know how to use Armament Haki. Although it is not profound, it is undoubtedly Armament Haki!

"Yadina, let me do it!"

Seeing these three big guys, Yadina immediately wanted to rush up and give it a try, but was stopped by Li Yuan.

Seeing Li Yuan stopping her, Yadina did not continue to act.

"Your Majesty!"

However, Li Yuan himself did not take any action. His domineering aura directly suppressed the enemy. In an instant, his unparalleled spirit enveloped the entire island.

All the beasts on Gravity Island knelt on the ground, trembling with fear.

The three giant beasts that wanted to attack just now fell to their knees with a thud, not even daring to raise their heads.

"Roar!!!"

However, just when Li Yuan thought that nothing was wrong, a violent and violent aura of the beast king suddenly surged from the depths of the forest. It was also a domineering aura of the king, and it was the domineering aura rising from the body of the beast!

"call out!!!"

I saw a dark golden figure with a metallic luster flying low and fast. It was a giant ant five meters tall, but its body was covered with various metal armors like an exoskeleton.

The two pairs of metal wings on its back allow it to fly, and its sharp mouthparts and limbs are full of power.

The power of ants themselves is very strong, not to mention the gold-eating ant king which is so huge!
"Gold-eating ant king? Or a gold-eating ant king with wings? Let me see how strong you are, the beast king!"

After seeing the gold-eating ant queen, Li Yuan immediately became interested. This was the first time he had seen a beast king with both armament color and domineering color.

Li Yuan did not use his domineering power or the Seven Star Sword, he just raised his fist and punched forward.

"boom!!!"

The huge gold-eating ant king's forelimbs covered with armed color domineering were hit hard by Li Yuan. The rapidly flying body was instantly knocked back hundreds of meters by Li Yuan's punch, and stopped only after crashing into several large trees.

"This power is really strong. Even if it is not as strong as the captain of the Giant Pirates, Touri, it is not much different. What's more, it is under the condition of more than ten times the gravity."

Li Yuan nodded with satisfaction.

After the gold-eating ant king, who was knocked away by Li Yuan's punch, turned over, its injured forelimbs quickly secreted a strange substance to repair its wounds.
