When the villagers saw Char and Shanks embracing each other, they were stunned and asked in confusion.
"Because they are brothers!"
Beckman, with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, explained to the villagers.
"Eh?!"
As Beckman finished speaking, everyone present was stunned.
"Shanks is a descendant of the original twenty, a child of the Figarand family who was lost to the outside world. In other words, he is a Celestial Dragon..."
At this point, Mihawk added.
"Shanks is a World Noble?! This is truly earth-shattering news..."
As Mihawk spoke, even the village chief of Windmill Village widened his eyes.
"In short, I hope you can keep my background a secret!"
In response, Shanks added a comment to everyone present.
"Your background is completely unimportant!"
"Anyway, now that I'm here, let's have a party!"
Char responded loudly.
"Oh!!"
As soon as Char finished speaking, Shanks' crew got to work.
"Hey! I'm your captain..."
Shanks looked at the crew behind him, who seemed to forget everything else at the mere mention of a party, and said helplessly.
"Hahaha! Who cares about you!"
Shanks' crew laughed loudly at him.
The atmosphere gradually became lively...
Meanwhile, a Mythical Zoan-type Human-Human Fruit, which Shanks had left behind on the bar counter at Makino's tavern, was in disarray after sensing Char and his Logia-type Dark-Dark Fruit...
"Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap..."
"No, I haven't even left the starting area yet! Stop messing around!"
For a moment, Nika Fruit, who was always laughing, seemed to lose his ability to laugh.
the other side.
The Dark-Dark Fruit that Char always carried seemed to sense something strange: "There seems to be some strange guy nearby! I think I smell destiny! Hmm, it's definitely someone familiar! But it's not a big deal, this season I, the Sky Generation, am terrifyingly strong."
Chapter 118 After Nika was captured by Char! Dark-Dark Fruit: Sweating buckets, aren't you, Nika!
Each Devil Fruit possesses its own unique consciousness.
The Nika Fruit's consciousness is the most active among them...
For the past eight hundred years, since the initial twenty people founded the World Government and ruled the world!
The government has never given up on the idea of reclaiming this Devil Fruit!
However, every time the government secretly carries out a plan or mission to retrieve the Human-Human Fruit, Mythical Zoan type, Nika form, various unexpected events occur...
Sometimes, the agents who find the Nika Fruit will inexplicably provoke powerful figures on the sea, and will eventually be successfully intercepted by them!
Despite the agents' careful maneuvering, avoiding all the powerful individuals...
It could also be quite absurd, such as encountering an incredibly rare storm or some other extreme weather event on the way to the Holy Land with the Nika Fruit...
Ultimately, the warship carrying the Devil Fruit disappeared into the vast ocean.
Eight hundred years of failure...
This has completely shattered the mentality of the Five Elders!
So much so that when the Five Elders heard from their own agents that these agents had inexplicably encountered the Red-Haired Pirates while retrieving the Nika Fruit, and that 'Red-Haired' Shanks had stolen the Nika Fruit, the Five Elders did not show any dissatisfaction or surprise. Instead, they showed an expression of "I knew it."
Holy Land Marie Gioia.
"The retrieval of the Nika Fruit has failed once again..."
"As expected! That legendary Devil Fruit possesses its own consciousness, and we simply cannot retrieve it using conventional methods..."
"Unless we personally go down to the lower realm and, the moment we find the Nika Fruit, use the teleportation array to send the fruit back to the Holy Land and hand it over to Lord Im."
"Scientific Defense God of War" Jaigolusia Satan Saint first sighed with a weary and helpless expression, then spoke softly.
"Then let's go down to the mortal realm ourselves! Anyway, with Xia here in the Holy Land, we don't need to worry about it. As long as we retrieve the Nika Fruit, the prophecy made by Joy Boy back then will become a complete and laughable joke from beginning to end!"
"Environmental God of War" Marcus Mazsan spoke with a cold expression, his arms crossed in front of him.
"Once Char returns from the lower realm, we'll take action ourselves..."
"Legal Martial God" Topman Vochuli Saint nodded slightly.
"Joey Boy?! I wonder if Joey Boy can really appear before Lord Im once again, just as he predicted back then..."
"Financial God of War" Izambaron V. Nassshuro touched his bald head, his eyes showing a hint of worry for Joy Boy.
"No matter what! We must do everything in our power to stop Joy Boy's return!"
"Our rule over this world, that of the world's nobles and the great Celestial Dragons, will never end in this era! Even if Joy Boy returns, it doesn't matter. Let the already dead Joy Boy die again..."
Shepard X. Pitt Saint, the "God of Agriculture," was absolutely resolute in his attitude.
Inside the conference room in Pangaea City, the Five Elders gathered, discussing the matter of Joy Boy and the Nika Devil Fruit! The things they were discussing were top-secret, even among the Celestial Dragons, and not to be overheard or pondered by unimportant outsiders…
Fortunately, the security work of the Holy Land has now been handed over by the Five Elders to those pacifists who were personally created by Char and are specifically for the Holy Land!
Protecting the core of Pangu City, and specifically obeying Lord Im, are the ten Seraphim experimental subjects originally created by Char, modeled after the Great Bear, codenamed S-Little Bear...
In addition, the safety of the other Celestial Dragons in the Holy Land was ensured by Char's creation of a total of one hundred third-generation Pacifistas, modeled after Kuma!
These pacifists tirelessly guard the key gates of the holy site day and night to prevent outsiders from intruding into this sacred place.
Because the security of the Holy Land was changed from silver-armored knights to pacifists, the secrecy of the Holy Land was greatly improved!
This also broadened Lord Im's sphere of activity beyond the flower garden and the throne room—places that ordinary people rarely visited!
At least within the entire Pangu City, Im can now come and go freely at any time without worrying about being discovered and thus facing the risk of his identity being suddenly exposed.
Just after the agents escaped from the sea, they reported to the Five Elders that the legendary 'Gum-Gum Fruit' had been stolen by Shanks ten days earlier, and that their warship had been sunk by Shanks, thus causing the operation to fail!
East Sea, Dong Island, Goya Kingdom, Windmill Village.
After Char and Shanks recognized each other as brothers, the Marines and agents that Char brought along got mixed up with the pirates under Shanks' command, and then went together to the only tavern in Windmill Village, Makino's shop.
"Drink up, brothers..."
In an instant, the atmosphere in the entire shop became lively...
Of course, this is because the macchino shop has very limited space...
So, those who entered the shop with Char were only a group of CP0 officers in white suits, Marines with the rank of Vice Admiral or higher, and Char's wife and children...
So, at the moment, Char's side only has forty or fifty people.
However, those who remained were all elites...
As for the other naval personnel and agents, they all remained on Char's warship. Char's intention was for them to first go to the capital of the Goa Kingdom to resupply their warship.
"Om..."
So after Xia and the others entered the tavern, the warship sailed away with a whistle.
In the tavern.
Shanks watched the government warships sail away into the distance, a hint of envy slowly flashing in his eyes. He looked at Char and asked, "Hey! Brother! Those warships of yours don't look like sailboats that move by wind power at all!"
"Yes! The navy and the government haven't used sailing ships for a long time..."
"Currently, the government's warships are mainly powered by four energy sources: electricity, platinum and lead, oil, and the versatile seastone!"
"Among them, the warships that use sea stone as their propulsion power source are the fastest of all warships! At full speed, they can circumnavigate the entire East China Sea in a single day!"
Char looked at Shanks and explained.
"Huh?!" Shanks was taken aback at first, then gasped in shock and exclaimed, "Doesn't that mean that if the Navy uses these warships, they can wipe out all the pirates in the four seas in a short time?!"
"Hehe! Theoretically, it's indeed as you say!" Xia Ya chuckled and shook his head, saying, "However, using Seastone as fuel for warships seems a bit too wasteful no matter how you look at it! After all, the regenerative capacity of Seastone is extremely limited! Every time it's consumed, it's almost like the world is permanently losing a portion of its resources! So, considering the cost, the government only builds a very small number of these warships, supplying them exclusively to high-ranking government officials, like myself..."
"Phew! Thank goodness, thank goodness..."
"If these warships were mass-produced..."
"Then there's really no way for us pirates to survive!"
After listening to Char's words, Shanks first sighed, looking relieved that the government couldn't mass-produce such monster warships. Then, Shanks looked at Char with a smile and said softly.
"Hehe! That's why I'm looking for a new energy source that can replace Seastone as an energy source! In addition, I'm fully supporting the World Government's research on engines. I'm sure it won't be long before the government or other naval warships will also have the formidable mobility to rival Seastone warships!"
Char chuckled softly at this, then spoke quietly to Shanks.
"Forehead……"
