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

Chapter 378: The four admirals of the navy and the pirates want to invade the South China Sea?
Marine Headquarters, Marineford:

More than 50,000 elite navy officers from the headquarters were all present. They stood solemnly below and looked up at the platform in front of them. On the platform stood four tall figures. They were none other than Munis and others, who were known as the four natural monster vice admirals of the navy.

Now the four of them all had solemn expressions. Even the wretched Borsalino didn't dare to show his wretched smile at this moment.

"My dear colleagues, since our navy was founded..."

The Admiral came in front of Muniz and the other four, and began his speech in a passionate and solemn voice facing the crowd of sailors. He talked about the founding of the navy, its hardships, glory, efforts, etc. This speech lasted for a quarter of an hour.

Borsalino and others in the rear of the Warring States period were listening to this magnificent speech with great inner torment. Even though they were obviously sleepy, they had to pretend to be listening attentively.

Not only Borsalino and his men, but even many of the navy officers standing below looked drowsy. After all, they had listened to too many speeches by Sengoku, and he almost made them fall asleep every time.

The most outrageous thing was that Karp, who was standing in the front row, fell asleep while standing!
But Garp was standing straight, not snoring, just with his eyes closed. Except for Sengoku, Kuzan and the other four people standing on the stage, no one could notice that Garp was asleep!
"I really envy Vice Admiral Garp's amazing sleeping skills!"

Garp's performance made Kuzan and Borsalino on the stage envious. If they had this kind of skill, and improved it a little bit so that they could sleep with their eyes open, then it would be a perfect super skill.

In the future, you can sleep without any worries while slacking off at work, listening to the marshal’s speech, attending naval meetings, etc.!

"In the name of the Admiral of the Navy, I declare that the achievements and strengths of the four Vice Admirals, Muniz, Sakaski, Kuzan, and Borsalino, have reached the standards for promotion!"

"From today on, Vice Admirals Munis, Sakaski, Kuzan, and Borsalino will be promoted to admirals of the navy. Their code names are Red Scorpion, Akainu, Aokiji, and Kizaru respectively!"

"Our navy will usher in its most glorious moment in this generation. The four admirals will work together to suppress the sea, eliminate pirates, and uphold justice!"

After Zhan Guo finished speaking, he immediately awarded medals to the four new generals behind him.

After hearing Sengoku finish his speech and prepare to award medals, even though Kizaru and the others already knew that they would become admirals, they were still excited deep down in their hearts.

The news that four admirals suddenly appeared in the navy was spread throughout the world the next day.

"The Navy has finally stood up. With four great admirals, they will surely launch a large-scale operation to clean up pirates in the four seas. This is great!"

"Humph, aren't these four generals the four who were previously known as the Nature Monster Lieutenant Generals? They were just average when they were Lieutenant Generals before, and now that they've become generals, they're not much stronger."

"The navy has finally risen. There are four admirals. There has never been such a thing before!"

"This is the age of pirates. The navy is just struggling to survive. I can't see many naval branches in the South China Sea now."

"."

After the news spread, people in many bars around the world were discussing the navy. However, many people did not support the navy. After all, over the past decade or so, the navy had been gradually declining. Every time they faced the big pirates of the New World, they only captured one big pirate, John, and had no other achievements. Instead, they suffered more defeats.

“Hahahahaha, can those four little natural navy brats all become admirals? The threshold for becoming an admiral is too low nowadays!”

After reading the report, Golden Lion said with great disdain.

Now in the navy, the only two guys he can look up to are Sengoku and Garp. Those four little brats are not taken seriously by him at all.

"Captain, our Sky Pirates have reached their limit. The territory in the New World is limited. If we want to continue to develop, we need more territory, or weed out the rubbish in the pirate group."

Reinhart said.

The Flying Pirates do not have the same strong ability to make money as the Wuji Pirates, although the Golden Lion often goes to other seas to steal some territories and puts them back in its own sea to increase the number of islands and resources in its own sea.

But this method is ultimately limited. Now the Flying Pirates have expanded to their limit, with more than 400,000 pirates under their command, which is more than the number of the Rocks Pirates at their peak. You can imagine how terrifying this number is!

But a large number of people means that they are difficult to manage, and various problems arise internally. They need an opportunity to unite and face the outside world to resolve these internal conflicts.

The best way is to expand territory or start a war. Either way can ease this internal conflict.

The reason why the Infinite Pirates, which has a number several times larger than that of the Hiku Pirates, does not have such problems is undoubtedly because the Infinite Pirates have an excellent manager, Yadina, who is able to solve such internal problems.

Another thing is that the Wuji Pirates have a huge amount of funds to support those members, and what's more, the Wuji Pirates are no longer limited to the New World, but are secretly expanding their territory to all corners of the world.

"Hahahahaha, it's been so many years since the Flying Pirates expanded or launched a war on a large scale. In that case, let's act together this time!"

"I want to both start a war and expand my territory!"

"It just so happens that the Navy is in its heyday, so we can use the Navy's influence to assert the reputation of our Sky Pirates!"

The Golden Lion smiled confidently.

"Captain, what do you mean?"

Reinhardt asked shrewdly.

"Here, our current territory is closest to the South China Sea across the Calm Belt, so we will attack the South China Sea and take it down!"

The Golden Lion pointed at the world chart and said with a fiery look in his eyes.

"Captain, with the strength of our Feikong Pirates, I'm afraid we can't take over the South Sea, unless we contact the Wuji Pirates and other pirate groups in the New World."

The entire South China Sea is much larger than the New World, and it is also the back garden of the World Government. The difficulty is extremely great.

"Hahahahaha, of course I know I can't eat it. Those guys in the New World are probably facing the same dilemma as our Flying Pirates."

"They wanted to expand but couldn't. Now we're giving them a chance to expand. How could they refuse?"

The golden lion laughed.

Golden Lion immediately took out Den Den Mushi to contact other pirates in the New World, and the first one he contacted was naturally Li Yuan, because Li Yuan was his most important opponent!

"Hahahahahaha, Golden Lion, I'm very interested in your proposal!"

"Nanhai, huh? Then let's join forces. It just so happens that I haven't really taken action in all these years. I'm itching to chop people down!"

Golden Lion's proposal is indeed in line with Li Yuan's idea. After years of development, the Wuji Pirates have become bloated, and a war is needed to make the Wuji Pirates stronger.

"Hahahaha, if that's the case, then it's settled. I'll go contact those other guys!"

After hearing Li Yuan's answer, Jin Shizi was in a very good mood. He liked Li Yuan's straightforward character. He said to join forces and start a war! "Husband, how do we fight this war?"

Xia Qi was beside Li Yuan, so naturally she heard what Golden Lion said.

"Prepare a map of the area of ​​the South China Sea countries under our control, and then plan several routes for capture. I will take over the most South China Sea territory in the shortest possible time!"

Li Yuan said.

This time, he attacks the South China Sea and seizes the territory, but he has no intention of returning it to the World Government. Instead, he is planning to incorporate it directly into the territory of the Infinity Pirates.

After all, this action is different from the time when Rocks invaded the four seas. Last time, Rocks just robbed a wave and left, but now he and Golden Lion both intend to directly occupy the South China Sea and tear it away from the hands of the World Government.

"No problem. We secretly control many countries in the South China Sea. We have consciously connected the territories of these countries. As long as our fleet of the Wuji Pirates goes there, they can hang the flag of our Wuji Pirates without fighting."

Xia Qi said confidently.

"This matter is of great importance. Pirates in the New World need some time to prepare. Let's start preparing as well."

Li Yuan nodded.

All the pirates in the New World should participate in this operation. After all, this is a rare opportunity. Once they miss this opportunity, it will be difficult for other large pirate groups to expand their territory.

After all, with the Hiku Pirates and the Wuji Pirates occupying two-thirds of the New World, other pirate groups cannot avoid these two legendary pirate groups if they want to expand, but they do not have enough strength to shake the rule of the two legendary pirate groups. So occupying the South China Sea now is their biggest opportunity for expansion.

"Mom, mom, my children have grown up and can expand my territory for me!"

"Ugh, ugh, ugh, ugh, war is coming, the era of the Beasts Pirates has arrived!"

"Gulala, I have more children, and I need more territory to support them."

“Hahahahahaha, of course I, Wang Zhi, must enter the South China Sea. Once I get to the South China Sea, I won’t be suppressed by Li Yuan and the Golden Lion anymore!”

"."

Sure enough, just as Li Yuan thought, faced with the temptation of expanding to the South China Sea, none of the great pirates in the New World could withstand this level of temptation.

At their current level, they are no longer pursuing material life, but spiritual life. Expanding territory, occupying resources, collecting wealth, and realizing their ideals are what they pursue.

Following the call of Li Yuan and Golden Lion, all the pirates in the New World were mobilized. They began to gather their troops, build ships, and prepare to invade the South China Sea at any time.

The current Calm Belt is no longer a threat to these pirates who possess the Conqueror's Haki. As long as they can intimidate those Sea Kings, the Calm Belt will allow them to travel freely.

Therefore, even without the Golden Lion leading them, they could cross the calm belt and reach the South China Sea on their own.

Holy Land Marijoa:

When the pirates in the New World were in turmoil and preparing to invade the South China Sea, the Five Elder Stars had not received any intelligence. After all, their intelligence network in the New World was not as good as before.

And now, they are looking at the intelligence of the four admirals of the navy and the Self-Defense Forces.

"The Self-Guardian Army is getting stronger and stronger. Although we have suppressed its development over the years, we cannot eliminate it. Those guys have now truly shaken our foundation. I don't know how many kingdoms in the world have been influenced by them."

Said the Scientific Defense God of War, Satan.

"It has now been found out that the leader of the Self-Guard Army is Drago, the son of the Navy hero Garp!"

"Now that the Navy has four great admirals, let the Navy handle the affairs of the Self-Defense Forces!"

Said Saint Peter, the God of Agriculture.

The demands of the four admirals of the navy were made to be reluctantly agreed to by the Five Elders after Sengoku used a series of means and external pressure, but while they agreed, they were somewhat worried that the navy would be out of their control.

Especially after they found out the relationship between Garp and the leader of the Self-Defense Forces, this worry was undoubtedly exacerbated, so they thought of letting the navy deal with the Self-Defense Forces.

"We cannot let the navy act alone. We must let them cooperate with the World Government's actions, and Garp cannot be involved in this operation."

"This time, let the four admirals of the navy go together, together with our world government's army and CP, we must completely wipe out the Self-Defense Forces!"

Said the Financial Martial God Nasu Juro Sei.

"The reason why the Self-Guardian Army can develop so fast has a lot to do with the support of the Wuji Pirates. After all, the weapons used by the Self-Guardian Army are all the weapons of the Wuji Pirates. It is because of these weapons that the power of the Self-Guardian Army has become stronger. When we deal with the Self-Guardian Army, we have to be on guard against the Wuji Pirates intervening."

Said the God of Justice, Vochuli Saint.

"Then let Garp and Sengoku be ready to take action at any time. We don't need them to deal with the Self-Defense Forces. We only need them to deal with the Infinite Pirates who may take action at any time."

The environment warrior god Ravinder Saint said,

Ravinder Sheng is the new environmental martial god elected by the Celestial Dragon family.

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

"."

"What? All the pirate groups in the New World have made unusual movements. They are all gathering troops in large numbers!"

However, just after the Five Elders decided on the action to deal with the Self-Defense Forces, they received the latest intelligence from the New World Pirates.

If only one or two pirate groups had unusual movements, they would not care too much, after all, there are always some pirate groups that are restless, but they cannot affect the overall situation. But now, all the pirate groups have made unusual movements. This situation has only happened a few times in the past, and each time it caused heavy losses to the World Government.

This time all the pirate groups in the New World once again made unusual movements at the same time, and the Five Elders had to take it seriously.
