Pirates: Building High Walls Starting from the East Blue.

Chapter 536 Aftermath

This is the East China Sea, on the bustling Goya Island.

"Boom!"

With a loud bang, an old wooden house trembled violently, and countless wood chips and dust fell to the ground.

Although it looked like it was about to collapse, it remained firm.

At this time.

"Crunch!"

The dilapidated door was opened.

Two burly figures covered their noses and mouths as they walked in. They saw the person still lying on the bed, scratching their belly and remaining unmoved by the noise. The person even made smacking noises as if they had eaten something. The two men shook their heads helplessly.

He then moved closer to the figure lying on the bed and shouted, "Garp, do you still want your donuts?!"

As these words fell.

The figure, who had been fast asleep, suddenly jumped up, his face showing no trace of sleep. His eyes blazed as he scanned his surroundings. "Who dares to eat my donut? Don't they know I even took down the World Government?"

"Nobody eats your donuts, and besides, what kind of donuts do you have here?!"

"?!" Hearing the voice, Garp snapped out of his daze, looking at the two figures in front of him with surprise. Then, he said irritably, "It's you two old geezers! Honestly!" Yawning, "What do you want from me?"

"I just came to see you out of boredom!" Sengoku, with his white hair, shook his head helplessly, then chuckled and said, "Ever since that battle, we've all retired. Zephyr thought we should all get together one last time, so I came over! But I didn't expect you, old man, to still be sleeping like before!"

"I'm bored too, aren't I?"

"Actually, if you guys are bored, you don't have to retire," Zeff said cheerfully, adding, "I'm sure Sakazuki and Kuzan would be very happy!"

however.

"No need, no need!" x2

In response to Zephyr's words, Sengoku and Garp chuckled and waved their hands, saying, "We're all remnants of the old era, it's time for us to retire, and besides..."

Then, with a sigh, Sengoku said, "That kid's gone, what are we still doing there?"

In that battle, the World Government displayed terrifying combat power. Just when everyone thought they couldn't win, the leader of the East Blue Navy stepped forward and displayed a power that was also like that of a god.

Ultimately, he led them to victory.

They then began to eliminate all forces causing chaos on the seas, starting from the four seas and advancing step by step towards the New World, finally unifying the seas.

But not long after that, the kid said something like he got promoted and was leaving, which was hard to understand.

"I was worried that Chief Xia Che would become a new god, but I never expected that kid wouldn't even be from this sea." He shook his head with a wry smile. "And he ran away so decisively, so cleanly!"

"They were really clean, and they even took so many female officers with them!" Garp next to him picked his nose. "They almost paralyzed the East China Sea Navy."

As soon as he said that...

"..." x2

Sengoku and Zephyr couldn't help but twitch at the corners of their mouths.

I have to say, that's absolutely true!

Immediately afterwards...

"I wonder where that kid ran off to?" Zefa said with a hint of regret, then gritted his teeth and said, "Luckily, that kid took Ain with him, otherwise, no matter where he hides, I'd beat him up!"

"You old codger are no match for that kid now, not even if you transformed into that pink dragon!"

"That's right, Zephyr, you'd better not embarrass yourself. But I must say, Zephyr's pink dragon is actually quite cute! Hahaha!"

"..."

Upon hearing the words of his two old comrades, Zefa immediately became furious.

Hearing the last sentence in particular made him furious, his face turning red. Then came a string of things like, "That's the power of a Devil Fruit, not something I can choose!" and "You guys are so superficial. What does color matter? Strength is the most important thing!" He also sternly rejected their unreasonable request to transform again.

Amidst the bickering, the three exchanged a glance, then burst into laughter, letting out hearty cheers.

They looked at each other...

I never imagined they would end up like this.

"Alright, let's stop arguing!" Sengoku said cheerfully. "By the way, Garp, why hasn't your house been demolished yet?"

"Why would I tear it down?" Garp chuckled, picking his nose. "I'm saving it for my two adorable grandsons!"

"That grandson who owes nearly 30 billion?"

"Grandson? What grandson? I have no grandson! I take back what I just said, I take it back!"

"..."

Seeing Garp's swift and decisive reneging on his promise, Zephyr was speechless, but he still shook his head and said with a smile, "Let's go! Tsuru and the others are already waiting for us at the bar!"

"The cranes are here too? Could it be that Sakazuki and the others are here as well?"

"They're too busy to come!"

"Oh, is that so? How pitiful! Hahaha!"

Bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, the three of them walked towards the bar in Windmill City, laughing all the while.

……

On the other side...

The three men, too busy to come over, were working while muttering curses, "That bastard ran away so easily!"

"That kid's always been like this! He just ran a little faster this time!"

"Hey, wasn't it supposed to be an easy job with double pay? How come I can't finish all the work? Maybe I should just retire!"

"No!" XN

Upon hearing Borsalino's words, everyone glared at him angrily. Borsalino, frightened, quickly waved his hands to indicate that he would not retire, and only then did everyone look away.

then.

I looked once again with a sense of melancholy at the mountain of official duties piled up before me.

Since the World Government was destroyed, the East China Sea Navy has become the new ruler of this sea.

only.

Unlike the World Government's ruling style, the East China Sea Navy did not allow those countries and forces to remain, but instead placed all the islands and sea areas under its control... Oh, right, it should now be called the New World Government.

A unified world government was established, with officials and representatives for each sea area. The affairs of the sea were jointly managed by the representatives, officials, and leaders of each sea area.

The new leader is Kuzan.

However, whether it is a representative, an official, or a leader, none of them can inherit the position, especially leaders who cannot be re-elected.

Therefore, this place not only includes high-ranking officers from the former East China Sea Navy, but also representatives from various islands.

"Erubaf wants to build a sea train to their island to boost their impoverished economy? Who came up with this idea out of thin air?"

"Erubaf is poor? Don't be ridiculous! And don't they know how old they are? Having transport ship routes is enough!"

"The Pirate Guild wishes to change its name to the Adventurers' Guild and to revise its rules and regulations accordingly! Okay!"

"A royal restoration on Glenya Island? What idiot would dare cause trouble at this time? Aren't they afraid of death? Deal with them severely!"

"Laugh Tale..."

Upon seeing the submitted matter, everyone was stunned, and their faces showed a complex expression.

"Is it open now?"

Unexpectedly, Laugh Tale, once the ultimate destination sought by everyone, has now become a popular tourist attraction on the coast and the most anticipated destination to open to the public.

They've already laid out a sea train there, and they've also invited Rayleigh, the former vice-captain of the Pirate King, to be their spokesperson.

This is unbelievable!

"Laugh Tale? I'll be on vacation soon, I'll go check it out!" Kuzan said with an expectant smile. "I wonder what the Pirate King's expression would be if he were still alive and saw Laugh Tale in this state?"

As soon as he said that...

The crowd, who had been sighing, suddenly burst into laughter.

That would be really interesting!

only.

Kuzan, who was also smiling, noticed Sakazuki, who was staring intently at the documents in his hands. Puzzled, he leaned closer and asked, "What's wrong? Is there some trouble?"

As he spoke, he leaned closer to take a look and seemed to see something, and was immediately stunned.

"Local officials colluding with the navy to exploit the local people? Is that so hard to solve? Just send people to suppress them."

"No, that's not what troubles me, it's what worries me..." Sakazuki sighed, his voice filled with complex emotions, and said, "In the end, some of us will fall and become like the World Government again!"

As soon as he said that...

The crowd, who had been laughing heartily, suddenly froze, frowned, and fell silent.

It must be said that Sakazuki's words also left them feeling confused.

Although Chief Xia Che talked about developing the economy, improving transportation, and establishing oversight, no one knew what the future held.

however.

Just as everyone was silent and worried.

"Hey, what are you all worried about!" A lazy voice rang out, immediately attracting everyone's attention.

Borsalino, who had been slacking off, stretched and chuckled, saying, "We just need to do our job well. As for the problems that follow, others will take care of them. Don't forget what Chief Shache said..."

He glanced at the crowd and said slowly, "Wake up! There has never been a savior on this ocean..."

At this point, the somewhat confused crowd perked up again, their faces beaming with smiles, and solemnly remarked together.

Wake up! There is no savior in this ocean; the only one who can save you is yourself!

"Hahaha!"

A series of hearty and resolute laughs echoed throughout the conference room.

Everyone had a determined smile in their eyes.

That's right, there is no savior in this film. There is Joey Boy, there is Chief Shacher, and there will be another person who dares to stand up against injustice.

The seeds have been sown. If future generations are oppressed and still dare not resist, waiting for the next savior to appear, then they deserve to be bullied!
