Traveling through the heavens from swallowing

Chapter 124 What is Rocks? Is he very strong?

Boom, boom, boom, boom
He tapped his fingers on the table, stopping the first mate from crying.

"Pike Pirates, East China Sea, have you heard of the Navy, the World Government, and the Celestial Dragons?" Liu Mang asked expressionlessly.

The pirates looked at each other and nodded.

Surprisingly, it’s One Piece!

Liu Mang looked indifferent, but he was very happy in his heart.

Pirate group is a very recognizable term. Apart from having seen it in One Piece, I have never seen it anywhere else.

Add to that the Navy, the World Government, and the Celestial Dragons, and there is no doubt that this is the world of One Piece.

After traveling for a month and a half, Liu Mang finally figured out which world he was in. He was even a little moved.

One Piece is good, it just happens that the Welfare World can bring one thing back to Devouring the Star, which is a powerful devil fruit, especially one related to space and time. It is a high-end thing that will not lose its value even if used until immortality, and it will be of great benefit to his growth!
Also, the ability of devil fruits is different from that of imperial weapons. This is a kind of power contained in the human body, and it is possible that it can be brought back. In this way, by eating one and taking one with him, he will have two abilities when he returns to Devouring Star!
Or be bolder, for example, Blackbeard has a special physique and can eat three devil fruits. Can he transform himself to achieve the same effect?

This world is wonderful!
A top-notch warrior could destroy a large or medium-sized island with one all-out attack, or even permanently change the climate and environment of a region. There is no doubt that this is a strength that only high-level planetary or even stellar warriors can possess.

As long as he grows to that stage, there will be no problem in resolving the monster crisis after returning. There is even a great chance that he will directly lead humans to counterattack against monsters!

It's a nice world.

After figuring out the world, the next step is to figure out the time. Liu Mang is not a fussy researcher, so he can't remember the time of One Piece, nor can he remember many of its contents, but he still remembers the general period.

Roger became the Pirate King, and then was executed. Then Luffy went to sea and fought the Battle of Marineford. As long as he knew who was at the top of the world at the moment, he could roughly guess what period it was.

But when Liu Mang asked them if they knew Roger, everyone's reaction was beyond his expectations.

I don’t even know him!
"Roger, Gol D. Roger, the Pirate King, don't you know him?" Liu Mang asked repeatedly in disbelief.

The pirates were helpless. "Where can a pirate king come from? Captain, who can get the recognition of so many pirates around the world?"

Liu Mang frowned. Am I early again?

"Then, which is the most powerful pirate group in the world now?" Liu Mang asked.

Everyone frowned, as this involved their blind spots in knowledge. They were all ignorant little pirates in the East China Sea Paradise and they really didn't know who was in charge of the pirate world.

At this time, the first mate spoke up, "Perhaps it is the Rocks Pirates. In the New World, they are about to defeat all opponents and become the overlord of the sea. They have nearly 100,000 people under their command, and many masters. Rocks D. Gibeck is the captain of the Rocks Pirates and the strongest in the world today."

As he spoke, hatred and murderous intent flashed in the first mate's eyes. It was obvious that the revenge he was talking about was against the Rocks Pirates.

Liu Mang had a blank look on his face. He had never heard of the Rocks Pirates and had no idea what they were.

Overlord of the sea? Are there four emperors in later generations?

The strongest man in the world? Is he stronger than Whitebeard?

"Is this Rocks very strong?" Liu Mang didn't care, his tone revealing disdain.

The first mate didn't understand it very well. "Maybe he is very powerful. It is said that my hometown was destroyed by the Rocks Pirates. I went back and saw that the whole island was gone." Liu Mang was disappointed. As the strongest person in the world of this era, he must be a top powerhouse. It is not too difficult for a top powerhouse to destroy an island. It is even very simple if the ability of the fruit is suitable. This cannot be used as a basis for judging a person's strength at all.

"How is the navy's strength?"

Everyone knows this. The bald man answered first: "Captain, the navy is very powerful. There are hundreds of thousands of soldiers all over the world. Everyone is equipped with guns and there are many cannons. No pirate group can be their opponent!"

What are you talking about? Liu Mang was speechless. Can what you said be considered strength?

"Ahem, let me ask again, who is the leader of the navy now?" The little pirates couldn't understand the situation where great power belonged to one individual, so they could only ask things that they could understand.

They finally understood and started calling out names at once like counting.

After listening roughly and excluding titles such as lieutenant, captain, and various colonels, only two names caught his attention, or two titles.

One is Admiral Fuhlen, and the other is Admiral Kong.

I have never heard of the first one, but I am very familiar with the second one. Isn’t this the commander-in-chief of the three armies later? At this time, he was just a general?
It is indeed too early, and too early. Roger's execution is all a background prequel. This is a period when Roger doesn't even know who he is. Isn't this a prequel within a prequel?

By the time Roger becomes the Pirate King, he will probably have conquered the world.

Could it be that there will be no more era of One Piece and it will be replaced by Liu Mang's era?

It seems, not bad!
Now that we have a clear understanding of the information, the pirates are of no use anymore. Should we just throw them into the sea to feed the fish?
Are you kidding? How could it be so cruel? Human resources are a precious resource. It is such a waste to feed them to fish. It is better to feed them to rhubarb.

There are currently 207 members in the Pieck Pirates, with a total of more than 80 guns. Their strength is pretty good, and it is enough to stir up trouble in the East China Sea. Some naval branches do not even have 80 guns.

They were lucky. Since they established the pirate group, they had never committed any acts of burning, killing or looting because they were too rich. They met Liu Mang's conditions for recruitment. Otherwise, one or two of them would have ended up in Liu Mang's stomach.

Pique was in a coma for a whole day before he woke up. The first thing he did when he opened his eyes was to cover his right cheek. The swollen 10 centimeters high lump was shiny and painful to the touch.

After learning that the Pieck Pirates' surname was Liu, he was not too sad. He just hoped that Liu Mang would be merciful and give him a facial treatment. He promised to work hard for him in the future.

Although Pique is arrogant and irritable, and even beat his subordinates at will in the past, he is surprisingly not a bad person. At least he has no record of bullying civilians, and the enemies he killed were all killed out of necessity due to his stance. If Liu Mang had gone to prison and accepted punishment obediently, he would not have shot him.

Well, this wave of recruitment was so smooth, and none of the members deserved death. Liu Mang didn't expect that even though his strength had returned to that of a war god, he still hadn't killed a single person as a sacrifice. It was a bit of a pity.

All pirate groups have the surname Liu, and so does gold. Several hundred kilograms of gold are extremely valuable even in the pirate world, at least tens of billions of Baileys. The heads of the Four Emperors in later generations are about the same price. This starting capital is probably something that few pirate groups can match.

But this is a fund with great risks, because part of the gold on Lika Island needs to be handed over to the kingdom every year and compiled into heavenly gold.

The Feijin Kingdom is not a big country, and it has almost exhausted all its efforts to pay the Tianshang Gold every year. The gold mining industry on Lika Island is well developed, and it accounts for almost one-third of the Tianshang Gold.

If this part of gold is suddenly gone, and they are unable to pay the heavenly gold, which will cause dissatisfaction among the Celestial Dragons, then the king will just make a little effort and the stupid Celestial Dragons will directly hate them.

The wrath of the Celestial Dragons is still very terrifying in the world of pirates, and even the strongest warriors may fall into it. Liu Mang has not developed well yet, so it might be a bit exciting for him to do this now.

But it is impossible to pay back the money. Both the Feijin Kingdom and the Tianlong people are birds of a feather. Liu Mang will never allow the wealth obtained by squeezing the poor people to fall into the pockets of the exploiters!

Build a ship and set out to sea, search for the method of practicing domineering on the Grand Line. After you have mastered the magical power, you will turn this world upside down!
Liu Mang looked out to the sea and set his first goal.
