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

Chapter 389: Pirates Occupy the South China Sea
"Bah, Kaido, you destroyed my kingdom. I will never surrender even if I die!"

Edmundo is a prince who grew up in the palace. Even though he is not the king of this kingdom, the king of this kingdom is his father. He loves this kingdom deeply and there is absolutely no way he will surrender to Kaido!

"That's such a pity!"

Kaido didn't hesitate at all and killed Edmundo directly when Edmundo made his choice.

If it were an ordinary time, he might have the patience to spend more time to subdue the other party, but now is not an ordinary time.

Now the entire South China Sea is under the occupation of many pirates, even though the area allocated to him by Li Yuan is very small compared to the entire South China Sea.

But for the Beasts Pirates, it is very big.

He needs to occupy all these territories in the shortest time possible. Even if he cannot occupy them, he must eliminate the strong and unstable factors in these territories, and then continue to occupy the next island.

Otherwise, if he moves too slowly, other big pirates who move faster will come and occupy the territory originally allocated to him.

Don't think that Li Yuan talked about dividing the territory at the beginning. If you are slow and it is occupied by other pirate groups, then you can only hold it in and wait until the entire South China Sea War is over before you can take it back, because now is not the time for internal fighting. If you are slow, you can only blame yourself for your bad luck, or you can only blame yourself for being weak.

But after the South China Sea War is over, it will be almost impossible for you to take back those territories from other big pirates, because they have done this many times in the New World, and they almost never succeeded.

So Kaido now just wants to occupy these territories as quickly as possible and absolutely not leave any unstable factors.

"Captain, the palace has been captured, and the treasure is being transported to our ship. We have also found a number of ships here, which will allow us to expand our fleet again."

"Quinn is recruiting some guys who are willing to join us and can be used as cannon fodder in the war."

Not long after Kaido defeated Edmundo, the entire kingdom was occupied by the Beasts Pirates, and Jin flew over to report to Kaido.

“Uh-huh, not bad, not bad. Let’s plunder the treasure first, send some people to occupy this place, and then continue to occupy the next place. The rest of the messy things can be dealt with after everything is over!”

Kaido said excitedly immediately after hearing King's report.

It has been a long time since the Beasts Pirates occupied the territory of World in the New World and have not expanded their territory. Now Kaido just wants to expand madly, recruit as many subordinates as possible, and get more treasures!

The Beasts Pirates are frantically attacking kingdoms and occupying territories in the South China Sea. Other pirate groups are not slow either, with the Sky Pirates and the Infinite Pirates even faster in occupying the South China Sea!

With the advantage of flying, the Flying Pirates, Golden Lion directly transported his forces to one kingdom after another. After arriving at a kingdom, he would leave some of his men behind and let those men occupy that kingdom.

Then the Golden Lion flew away with the rest of his men. When he arrived at the next kingdom, he dropped off some of his men.

What follows is a continuous cycle until all of your subordinates are sent out to conquer the kingdom.

The Golden Lion returned to the kingdom where he had initially placed his men. When he returned here, his men had already captured the king.

Next, Golden Lion will transport his men here to other kingdoms to continue the attack, and the speed is extremely fast.

If his subordinates encounter a powerful enemy that they cannot defeat, the Golden Lion can arrive to provide support as quickly as possible.

The Wuji Pirates, thanks to their powerful intelligence network, were able to accurately dispatch individual cadres and even captains to lead a group of personnel to capture the kingdoms and islands in the South China Sea.

The network formed by Xia Qi was controlling the progress of the entire attacking force, and had made all the members of the Wuji Pirates work perfectly, just like the basic gears under the entire huge machine, occupying the territory of the South China Sea belonging to the Wuji Pirates with the least force, the fastest pace, and the highest efficiency.

There are even some places where the Infinite Pirates don't even need to send people to occupy them, because the flags of the Infinite Pirates have already been hung there. This is a method that belongs only to the Infinite Pirates. "Husband, it seems that our Infinite Pirates are the fastest. Maybe before the support from the World Government arrives, we can occupy all the territories."

Xia Qi and Li Yuan were both in the cabin of Hades. In front of them was an electronic screen.

On the screen was a nautical chart of the entire South China Sea. There were small dots on the chart, representing the islands of the entire South China Sea. Several black lines divided the entire South China Sea, which happened to be the territories previously divided out for each pirate group.

The white dots on the chart represent unoccupied areas, and the black dots represent occupied areas.

Relying on Luowang's intelligence network, every time an island is occupied, the white dot will turn black.

In just one day, one-third of the white dots belonging to the Wuji Pirates' territory have turned black, which means that one-third of the territory has been captured by the Wuji Pirates.

Among the territories of other pirate groups, the Flying Pirates were the fastest, and one fifth of their territory was occupied by the Golden Lion.

The other pirate groups are still very slow.

The biggest obstacle to occupying these territories is distance. It is still very difficult for many pirate groups to occupy these islands across such a long distance in such a short time.

Only the Hiku Pirates have the advantage of flying and are a little faster. The Infinity Pirates have a fast ship, strong intelligence, and a large number of cadres, so they are faster than the Hiku Pirates.

"How long will it take for the World Government and the Navy to reach the South China Sea?"

Li Yuan asked.

It is easy to occupy these islands, but it is not so easy to defend them. The World Government is not a pushover. Only then will the real war begin.

"It will take at least three days."

Xia Qi replied.

"Three days? That's enough!"

Li Yuan said with narrowed eyes.

At the speed of the Wuji Pirates, they will be able to completely occupy the territory in two days. At that time, they will be able to spend one day to concentrate all their combat power to fight against the World Government and the Navy!
"My dear husband, almost all the high-level forces of the navy have been dispatched this time. Even the Admiral of the Navy, Sengoku, will be leading the expedition personally. In addition, the Seven Warlords of the Sea are also here."

"We don't know how many top combat forces the World Government will send at this time."

Xia Qi continued.

"The Five Elders will never dare to appear in front of me, so the only ones they can send out are the top powerhouses they have trained in the past few years and the original powerhouses of the Tianlong people!"

"No matter what, we have the advantage, and the Tianlong people will not send out all the top masters. At most, they will send out half of them."

Li Yuan said confidently.

He knew the Celestial Dragons too well. In their eyes, their own safety was the most important thing. It was impossible for them to send out all their forces to protect themselves for the World Government. Especially after the last Marijoa explosion, they became even more vigilant.
