One Piece: From the God Valley Era
Chapter 51, History? Money's all it takes.
After the Kozuki clan perished, Wano Country also disappeared into the annals of history.
Wano Country was officially renamed Dragon Ball Country, and Acnoya became its king.
Although he is called a king, he is actually an armed regime, a country where Acnoa has all the power. His power is even greater than when the Kozuki clan was in power. He is omnipotent and can do whatever he wants.
After all, this isn't my own country, so I can just graffiti on it and not be afraid of offending anyone.
There's no one he can't offend; they all need to carefully appease him, fearing he might suddenly unleash a bloodbath.
Sometimes, it's not so bad to be a heartless demon king; they won't test you.
Because trying it could really kill you; I'm not kidding.
However, the upheaval in Wano Country did not attract the attention of neighboring countries.
Located deep within the New World, Wano Country has very few countries, though there are quite a few towns. Due to its isolationist policies, the outside world knows very little about Wano Country, and some people don't even know that such a country exists.
Only after getting lost at sea and drifting here did they realize that there was a Wano Country here.
Acnoya has changed the policies after becoming the king of the Dragon Ball Kingdom.
Stussy served as the foreign ambassador to maintain contact with the outside world, and he didn't care whether or not diplomatic relations were established with other countries.
Once we have enough strength, we'll conquer Wano Country first, then we won't have to worry about establishing diplomatic relations.
However, one thing to note is the giants' kingdom of Elbaf, which is also located deep within the New World.
The person now known as the world's strongest is not Locus, but Harald, the King of Elbaf.
However, Rocks is not necessarily weaker than Harald, because some of his deeds have been buried by the World Government.
Furthermore, giants have always been synonymous with power, so people subconsciously believe that Harald is the most powerful man in the world.
But if it really comes down to a fight to the death, the outcome is hard to say.
And now, Harald has started to act as the World Government's lackey in order to become a member state of the World Government. Last time, they even blocked their ship, preventing them from going to the West Blue.
As things stand, Elbaf is unlikely to establish diplomatic relations with them, and Akunoa doesn't seem to care much about it.
Given the current situation, they are bound to have a war with Elbaf, so they are not friends, but enemies.
Unless Harald abandons his status as a member state and returns to his original position as King of Giants.
However, Harald, in an attempt to atone for his sins and influenced by the World Government, has become mentally unstable.
He even willingly allowed Im to mark him, only realizing his mistake at the last moment and letting Loki kill him.
This also earned Loki the infamy of being a patricide.
Closer to home.
Although Wano Country is not well-known in the New World, the news of the regime change still caused a stir in the New World, and the level of discussion rose sharply.
And Stusi, the diplomatic ambassador, also appeared in the newspapers.
And the person who started all of this was Morgans.
This kid seized every opportunity he could get his hands on. He was willing to publish any news, especially big news, in the newspapers, and he was also doing his best to develop his own war correspondents.
This is one of the reasons why Morgans was so successful.
This guy truly hasn't forgotten his original aspirations.
But this guy also started the trend of clickbait headlines, taking an unconventional approach.
In addition, the administrative system of the Dragon Ball Kingdom was gradually established.
Acnoa did not choose the original crude and simple system of Wano Country, but instead divided it into sections, using the system from his previous life.
It is proceeding in an orderly manner.
Gloria was in charge of this reform.
After all, she had been a king and had experience, and with Acnoya's help, everything was not a problem.
The Dragon Ball Kingdom is also developing in a positive direction.
......
New World. Euro Jackson.
Roger, Ridley, Jabba, and Rocks were sitting on the deck drinking and looking at the newspaper that had been delivered that day. It featured a picture of Stussy, who was as handsome as ever, and even had a dashing air about him.
"Hahaha..." Rocks took a sip of his drink and laughed loudly, "Acnoa is really capable, he's already taken care of Wano Country."
"So, the red Poneglyph has fallen into his hands. Roger, you're in for trouble."
David's family knew about the Poneglyphs, and during the time they were on the ship, he also explained this to Roger and the others.
Therefore, Roger needed to obtain the red Poneglyph if he wanted to become the Pirate King.
"Troublesome?" Roger grinned. "Then let's fight Acnologia, using the Red Poneglyphs as the stakes!"
"A wager?" Lockes looked puzzled. "You don't understand this guy at all. He wouldn't wager something like this."
"Huh, why?"
"Because it's his stuff, why should he use it as a wager, and you need to pay a high enough price to start this gamble."
"He'll definitely ask for an exorbitant amount then, I know that guy too well," Rocks teased, patting Roger on the back.
In his memory, Acnoya was this kind of person—not talkative usually, but capable of saying surprising things at crucial moments.
Moreover, they value money highly.
The same thing happened when he asked Rayleigh for money in God Valley.
"I still owe this guy a few Devil Fruits," Rayleigh said with a smile.
He wasn't going to give money, but rather a Devil Fruit, in order to show his sincerity.
After all, money is something you can just rob, and 500 million Berries isn't a huge amount.
But Devil Fruits are different; they're highly sought after, costing a hundred million or even more.
So he planned to collect three to five Devil Fruits and use them to pay off his debts.
But so far, his progress is only one step.
They only collected one Zoan-type Devil Fruit.
"Giving him money is the same thing, he won't mind!" Locke said.
"No, I can't afford to lose face like that!" Rayleigh's attitude was firm.
It's just a Devil Fruit, nothing compared to Shakky.
If it weren't for Acnoya, Shakky wouldn't be like this.
He was genuinely grateful to Acnoya.
So we only cherish things after we lose them, and that's exactly how Rayleigh is.
Unlike Acnoya, which gets straight to the point and appeals to both the heart and the body.
"Haha, then you've got a lot to do," Rocks said. "Roger, so my suggestion is to just give this guy money or a Devil Fruit. He'll definitely agree. As for the amount, you can call him and negotiate."
"After all, this thing can be copied and sold in bulk."
"Huh? How could this be?!" Roger exclaimed in alarm.
"Why not? You expect this guy to just give you the red Poneglyphs?"
"You think too highly of him!"
