One Piece: Farming from the Rocks Era

In this way, both parties really live their own lives, and except for occasionally discussing philosophical issues together, they basically do not influence each other.

In another sense, it can be considered a relatively harmonious partnership.

Even so, Charlotte Lingling's continued stay on Åland Island still made Liana and Alison look at Lind with a scrutinizing eye every day.

Linde was a bit overwhelmed, and it was thanks to Charlotte Lingling that Linde had communicated with her before, and she even had a child before she was with Liana and Alison.

The two of them could still barely accept it, but if it were someone else, a Shura field might really break out, and dealing with family conflicts every day might make Lin De waste a lot of time.

After asking Charlotte Lingling's opinion, Lind sent her back to Wanguo. After all, that was Charlotte Lingling's territory, and Charlotte Lingling was also a career-oriented woman.

As for our side, the navy has such a large territory to take care of, and the navy has been staying in the Oran Sea for some time.

Without the navy stationed there, pirates in other waters outside the New World would have been in chaos long ago, and the main force among them were those who Lind had planted through the Spark Project.

So after Lind withdrew his troops, the navy also hurriedly withdrew their troops and went back to deal with public security issues. They had no mood to harass Lind.

If Zhan Guo hadn't been staying in the West Sea, Lind would have been thinking about restarting the West Sea strategy.

"We originally planned to create trouble in the West Sea to relieve the pressure on the front battlefield."

"I didn't expect to lure that old man from the Warring States period over here. The key is that he refuses to leave. If we want to start the West Sea strategy again, it will probably be a lot of trouble!"

"No, the West Sea strategy must be implemented in the Oran Sea area. The bottleneck is too obvious. Feiya, go and send a notice to all the cadres and special talents of the same level."

"Let them write a plan about the West Sea Plan, how to create trouble and develop power under the nose of the old man Zhan Guo."

As Lind continued to sign documents and issue orders.

The entire Aland Island operated in an orderly manner, while being prepared for war that could break out at any time.

On the one hand, it is to ensure the steady development of the three territories of Oran Sea, Sky Island and Magnetic Sea; on the other hand, it is to allow Lind's power to continue to infiltrate the outside and develop by taking advantage of the chaos.

......

After a brief ceasefire in the war in the New World, the battlefield began to shift to other sea areas.

After a grand banquet on Beehive Island, Rocks personally led the team and relied on the power of the Shiki Float-Float Fruit to plunder crazily in various sea areas.

They confiscated properties and destroyed countries, and frantically destroyed the member states of the world government one by one, making everyone in the world feel insecure.

Rocks is not as reasonable as Lind. He only kills the wealthy royals and nobles. Those vicious pirates may have committed any crimes during the looting process.

Rocks, whose reputation had improved somewhat because of the Dragon Slaying Order, has no chance of redemption this time. He is now the most evil and brutal person in the world.

This aroused the anger of many heroes, and even Lind was somewhat dissatisfied with Rocks's behavior and wanted to send Rocks away as soon as possible.

The World Government and the Navy cannot remain indifferent to Rocks' unscrupulous behavior and are thinking about how to stop Rocks' current crazy actions.

In the end, with the help of some "civilian heroes", he dealt a heavy blow to Rocks.

The Celestial Dragons, the navy, and civilian forces were combined to ambush a group of Rocks in one of the member states.

Rocks was ambushed and didn't have enough men with him, so he was badly beaten.

Shiki, who was the one being taken special care of, was almost beaten to death. If it weren't for Rocks who turned the tide and burst out with all his strength to cover Shiki's retreat by activating the ability of the Float-Float Fruit.

Maybe I'm really going to fail there.

Even if they escaped, the price they paid was quite painful, even more manpower was lost than in the previous decisive battle with the World Government.

The number of quasi-generals that originally reached 15 was reduced to single digits after two attacks, and there were only a dozen elite lieutenant generals left.

If not for the top general-level warriors who escaped alive, Rocks would have been so heartbroken that he could not breathe.

After this battle, Rocks no longer dared to run around with his men so arrogantly. He planned to return to Beehive Island to recuperate and replenish his troops first.

Then we can think carefully about attacking the World Government.

Chapter 155 Year 1483 of the Haiyuan Calendar

As Rocks ceased his activities and the large army withdrew to Honeycomb Island to recuperate, the whole world seemed to have been briefly paused again.

If it weren't for the large army stockpiled at the border and the small forces of the Rocks Pirates causing chaos everywhere, the situation would be almost the same as the previous Cold War.

The topography of the pirate world is such that it is difficult for a major war to break out with a battle line extending thousands or even tens of thousands of kilometers.

Unless Rocks, whose base is in the New World, is in charge personally, it will be difficult for him to gain a foothold in other seas, especially the four seas.

The same is true for Linde. In the short term, New World is relatively stable, so we need to find a new key target.

Linde placed his focus on the West Sea. Although Zhan Guo was there, it did not prevent Linde from laying stakes in the West Sea and waiting for the right time to act.

Rocks, on the other hand, focused on the first half of the Grand Line.

In early 1483, Lockes sent people to occupy the Kingdom of the Fishmen and took control of this important transportation route.

And they continued to send people to attack the Grand Line to expand their sphere of influence.

Many pirates who were originally going to be baptized in the New World got to see the style of a real great pirate in advance.

Countless so-called supernovas were forced to join the Rocks Pirates and become Rocks' minions in the first half of the Grand Line.

Replenishing the strength lost in the previous series of wars.

However, even though there are these supernovas with great potential joining, it still takes some time to redeem their potential.

Especially without as many devil fruits as before, it is unknown how long it will take to realize the potential.

It would be difficult to replenish the strong men lost. If a war were to take place with the World Government, they would be at a clear disadvantage at the level of elite lieutenant generals and associate generals.

Rocks regretted it so much. He should not have started the decisive battle with the World Government so early, and he should not have gone deep into the enemy's territory alone, which led to him being plotted against.

After all, Rocks does not have the background of a world government. After making a fortune last time, Rocks' power expanded wildly.

Little did they know that this kind of power was indeed powerful, but it had no foundation to support it. Every time those strong men were lost, they were lost. Rocks did not have enough devil fruits to quickly cultivate strong men.

Even Linde may not be able to match him in the training of reserve forces. The group of people trained before has almost consumed Rocks' reserve forces.

This has made Rocks very uncomfortable, and he can only recruit people frantically in the Grand Line and even in the four seas.

The poor tool Shiqi was once again used by Rocks to go to various sea areas to recruit pirates, bounty hunters, etc.

However, although Rocks is well aware of the trouble he is facing now, others may not understand.

We only see that Rocks is no longer hiding in the New World, but has begun to take action in other seas, expanding his territory and recruiting talents at the same time. His momentum is so huge that he seems to be ready to divide the world with the World Government.

On the World Government side, the navy is seriously short of manpower because the territory it has to manage is too large.

The group of powerful Celestial Dragons in Mary Geoise could not be deployed at all, and they did not care about the loss and chaos of some territories.

Even for the Five Elder Stars, as long as they accumulate enough strength and take down Rocks in one wave, the other losses can be made up at any time in the future.

Anyway, Rocks' current expansion speed is very limited. With the navy around, it is simply impossible to turn the first half of the Grand Line into the same as the New World.

"Let Rocks be proud for a while. Once we have sorted out our own strength and digested some of the foundation, it will be the time for Rocks to die." Satan said.

In this way, the entire year 1483 passed slowly under the appeasement policy of the World Government, and the time came to a very important node in the original work.

In one year, Rocks successfully recovered by constantly recruiting "newcomers".

And compared with a year ago, there has been another breakthrough.

Kozuki Oden and Kaido successfully broke through to the admiral level, and with internal training and external support, the quasi-admiral level strongmen successfully recovered and broke through to 16 people.

In addition to the group of geniuses who enjoyed the benefits and were given devil fruits by Rocks two and a half years ago, they made further breakthroughs after hard practice.

The rest was the help that was secretly given to Rocks by forces and kingdoms around the world.

After all, there are still many people in this world who are dissatisfied with the World Government. In the Kingdom of Flowers alone, Zhu Feng directly supported Rocks, two quasi-admiral-level strongmen, in the name of pirates.

One is Qing Jiao, the young master of the Babao Navy, and the other is Li Yunfei, the young master of the Sanbao Navy.

It can be said that there is no concealment at all, it is such an obvious support. Of course, it is also related to the fact that these two guys are rather arrogant and have a bounty on them.

Elbaf also supported a pirate group led by a quasi-admiral-level strongman.

There is also the new king of the dark world, the Azure Queen Lazli who controls the ocean currents, who also sent her younger brother, the Scarlet Prince Lapis, to secretly join the Rocks Pirates with many of her confidants.

The Kingdom of Olin also sent out its own prince Hades to lead a team of kingdom guards, who changed their appearance and joined the Rocks Pirates.

Even the Hunter's Heart Guild, which was supposed to have some conflicts with the Rocks Pirates, sent out one of their own eight-star hunters to lead the team and join the Rocks Pirates in the name of betrayal.

These are just the quasi-general-level strongmen. The number of strongmen at the next level, the elite lieutenant general and lieutenant general level, is even more terrifying.

Rocks is now too lazy to count how many forces have joined him in this year.

Rocks was also very clear about the purpose of these forces. They just wanted to consume the power of the World Government so that these local forces would have an easier time in the future.

Even in the decisive battle, if Rocks was at a disadvantage, these guys would not mind stabbing Rocks in the back to get the credit.

In addition to Rocks, the navy has also been expanding wildly this year.

With the tacit approval of the World Government, the Navy had to continue expanding its forces in the face of Rocks' offensive.

Countless passionate young people joined the navy and rose through battles with pirates.

Although due to resource issues, it is difficult to obtain enough quasi-general and general-level strongmen in a short period of time.

However, there are so many strong men at the level of major generals, lieutenant generals and even elite lieutenant generals that some senior naval officials are beginning to doubt their lives.

Are there so many geniuses in this ocean?

As expected, heroes emerge in troubled times. Before Rocks appeared, before the rise of Garp and the other two, who could have thought that so many top-notch experts would suddenly emerge in this world?

Perhaps it is because the intensity of battles in other sea areas has increased. Now the intensity of wars in the Grand Line and many places in the Four Seas can be compared with that in the previous New World. It is normal to have so many strong people.

Chapter 156 The Development of Oran Island

As the navy's power continued to grow, management problems gradually became prominent, and it became difficult for a general to manage such a large navy.

In order to appease the navy, the Five Elders had to increase the number of senior naval officials and expand the navy's organization.

Kong was promoted to the rank of Admiral of the Navy ahead of schedule, and was in charge of the Navy Headquarters and the first half of the Grand Line.

Sengoku and Zephyr were promoted to admirals of the navy, responsible for matters related to the four seas and the New World respectively.

Establish the Four Seas Admiral to oversee the defense of the four seas.

Ten base chiefs were appointed to oversee the defense of the New World and areas related to the park.

This time, the navy can be said to have won a great victory. Its power completely overwhelmed the army and air force, which had little presence to begin with, and it became the undisputed overlord of the sea.

The only problem is that the number of top powerhouses is far from enough. Facing the Rocks Pirates, they can only passively defend and are unable to launch an attack.
