One Piece: From the God Valley Era

The New World, Beehive Island.

Xiaqi's Bamboo Pole Bar.

Beehive Island, which had quieted down after the God Valley incident, was once again in an uproar. Shakky returned there and was greeted with cheers from the crowd.

But one person was still sweating profusely: Wang Zhi, who was in charge of guarding Beehive Island.

It was he who colluded with outsiders to leak information, leading to Malone's death and Shakky's abduction.

Now that Xia Qi is back, she might even know what he did back then.

There are no secrets in this world.

If the Celestial Dragons' hunting trip to God Valley could be exposed, then their collusion with outsiders is even more likely to be revealed.

So he's terrified now, afraid that Xia Qi and the others will find out about this, and then he'll be finished.

Rocks, Rayleigh, Roger and others will definitely not let him off the hook; his fate will be dire.

Even pirates dislike traitors.

However, since Xia Qi and the others returned, there had been no unusual activity, which put his mind at ease.

Good, it hasn't been exposed yet.

After realizing this, Wang Zhi breathed a sigh of relief, his usual smile returned, and he started joking and laughing with everyone.

Then...

"Huh? Rocks, you're going to disband the Rocks Pirates?" Wang Zhi stared at the man in front of him in horror and disbelief.

Upon hearing this, Rocks took a sip of his drink, put his arm around his wife Alice, and held his son Teach: "Yes, Wang Zhi, I'm not going to be a pirate anymore."

"The Rocks Pirates have disbanded, and I'm just back here to retrieve some of my belongings."

"They really disbanded!?"

Wang Zhi was still a little skeptical, but after seeing the two people beside him, he began to believe it.

Even if it's because of family, this news is still too shocking.

The Rocks Pirates, at the height of their power, are disbanding—this is explosive news that could shake the entire world.

When Shakky disappeared last time, the world economy came to a standstill for a week. Even if the disbandment of the Rocks Pirates wasn't as powerful as Shakky's, it could still cause turmoil throughout the world.

The Rocks Pirates were the undisputed rulers of this era.

Of course, in this oppressive era, the Rocks Pirates may not be as popular as Shakky.

"Yeah, it's really over, I'm not kidding," Rocks said. "You've seen what I look like, I'm not fit to be a pirate anymore, so I'm preparing to leave Beehive Island."

"This place is yours."

"However, if you want to stay on Beehive Island temporarily, you'll have to rely on your own strength."

Beehive Island is a benchmark for pirates in the New World. Almost every pirate who comes to the New World will come here to broaden their horizons, as if it were a pilgrimage site.

When Shakky arrived here, it reached its peak. Every pirate wanted to come, and even some ordinary people wanted to catch a glimpse of Shakky's beauty.

Therefore, Beehive Island is of great significance to the pirates.

Now that Locus doesn't need Beehive Island anymore, others will want it and take it for themselves.

And this is a fierce battle between dragons and tigers.

"You guys fight it out, I have no interest in this place," Acnoya waved his hand and was the first to speak.

Beehive Island is very meaningful to pirates; they could even use its flag to recruit soldiers and horses, but he doesn't need it at all.

The era of Rocks has passed, and a new era has begun. New pirates need new rules.

As long as they are pirates under my command, they will all be guaranteed a minimum income, ensuring they won't starve. I train them as professional pirates, not as a bunch of rabble.

Acnoya needs to rival the Navy; only in this way can they grow into a large and powerful pirate crew, instead of operating like a family workshop.

Only in this way can you achieve your goals.

Although he doesn't have that much money right now, he knows where to find it.

That's right, it's a Sky Island.

All that gold on the Sky Island was unclaimed; once he arrived, it would be his. Coupled with his savings over the years, he wouldn't lack the funds to get started.

Gloria, Stussy, and Kaido remained silent; they were all allied with Acnoya and not involved in the distribution of Beehive Island.

"Gulalalala, I don't need it either, you can take it yourselves if you want it," said the white-bearded man.

He has decided to form the Whitebeard Pirates with this pineapple-headed guy and then take on many adopted sons.

"Mmm~~mmm~~" Charlotte Linlin said, "I will build my own kingdom, I don't need Beehive Island."

Her goal is for all races to live together, which requires a large island; this island is too small to be suitable.

She has already discussed with the longbread baker about finding an island and building her own country.

This country will be called the Kingdom of Ten Thousand, and she will be its queen, ruling this kingdom.

Apart from Acnoya, Whitebeard, and Linlin, the other members of the Rocks Pirates remained silent.

It's clear that they all have their own ideas about Beehive Island.

Although Lockes has given up, Beehive Island still has value, and they must get their hands on it.

He was determined to win the Golden Lion, in particular.

He needs to use Beehive Island as a bargaining chip to attract pirates to gather here and then turn them into his subordinates.

This way, he can quickly expand his Golden Lion Pirates.

Everyone else shared the same idea, wanting to quickly accumulate strength.

In the new world, strength is everything. You can get anything, even if you slap the World Government in the face, you can get away with it.

The fact that the Rocks Pirates returned unharmed is the best proof of this.

This has led some people to become arrogant.

"Hahaha, since that's how it is, then you can do whatever you want." Lox stood up and said, "I'm not going to bother you any longer."

"Roger, I'm planning to come over and have a chat with you. You don't mind, do you?"

He planned to stay on Roger's ship for a while, and then leave after Acnoya had dealt with Wano Country.

He trusted Roger and Rayleigh's character, and Shakky would also be on Roger's ship. They were all old acquaintances, and they could look out for each other. He didn't need to worry about his wife and children being betrayed.

Hearing this, Roger was somewhat surprised: "You actually want to come to my side? We're enemies."

“That was before. Now I’m a father and a husband,” Rocks said. “So, will you let me on board?”

"Of course!" Roger grinned. "I couldn't be happier."

"But you're probably only staying for a short time, right?"

"Yes, I'll stay for a while."

"Okay, just let me know when you leave, but you have to follow the rules!"

The Rocks Pirates are the Rocks Pirates, and the Roger Pirates are the Roger Pirates.

"Of course, I'm the most law-abiding person."

"Then I'll be relying on you for the next while, Captain Roger!" Rocks smiled.

"Haha, no problem, no problem!"

Roger burst into laughter at the word "Captain."

There's nothing more gratifying than having the captain of an enemy ship call you captain.

"Then Rocks..."

Acunoa also stood up.

"I should go too."

"Well, Acnoya, good luck."

"Thanks."
