Arceus' Pirate Journey

"So...you want the Nine Snakes to become your vassal?"

"That's about it. It's not surprising in the world of pirates, right? Some people want to fly our flag but haven't had the chance yet."

The Beasts of today are not the warmongering Beasts of the original timeline. In terms of logistics development, the Beasts' territory is even better than BIG MOM's territory.

In a sense, they are a small world government with absolute power over the islands they rule.

And Olga was not joking. There were indeed people who wanted to fly this flag but had not had the chance yet.

"This kind of thing..."

Guroliosa was thinking about how to reject the other party. She couldn't possibly merge Nine Snakes into a force that was very unfamiliar to her just because of a few words. However, a cadre from the other party personally said such a thing and directly explained the new technology of the navy ships.

Since the navy can do it, then those who sell seastone can naturally do it as well. The Nine Snakes are no match for the navy, nor are they a match for the hundred beasts.

Moreover, it was too difficult to relocate the entire clan. At this time, Guluoliosa did not expect that Olga meant to move the island directly.

"Don't be so anxious. This is just a suggestion. In fact, you have another choice. The so-called Seven Warlords of the Sea of ​​the Navy have not yet been fully recruited."

The concept of Seven Warlords of the Sea was proposed very early. Many years ago, Crocodile won the position of Seven Warlords of the Sea because of his battle with Barrett.

Its purpose is to balance the forces on the sea. As legitimate pirates with legal rights to plunder, naturally not just anyone can be elected as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Sufficient prestige and strength are what the World Government values. Crocodile was invited to become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea because he met these requirements. He also accepted the invitation for a special purpose.

"The Seven Warlords of the Sea..."

"That's right. In the first half of the Grand Line, this identity is the best cover. After obtaining the legitimacy of the World Government, ordinary pirates will not be able to deal with you."

"What is your purpose?"

"Friendly assistance, such as holding social gatherings from time to time, and the Shichibukai should also be able to access some special information, and we need that information.

At the same time, as mentioned at the beginning, you may hesitate now, but after a while you may take the initiative to join. "

Guroliosa did not give any response to Olga's words. What she was talking about now were all possibilities in the future. Even she could not directly deny the possibility of such a thing happening. Moreover, the two suggestions made by Olga were indeed very important to Nine Snakes.

Without the protection of the Calm Belt, they would have to find another way out.

The idea of ​​moving directly is not considered for the time being, but the location of the Seven Warlords of the Sea also makes Guroliosa feel very troubled. After all, the Seven Warlords of the Sea are not cabbages that can be obtained just by wanting them.

"If you agree, we have a way to help you get started. If all goes well, the World Government will soon send you an invitation."

"Thank you for your suggestion. You should take a rest after coming from afar. There are some things that I need to discuss before I can give you a reply. You can take this Excellency to rest for a while."

People did come, but it was Hancock. She has been outside since she came back. She also has a certain status in Nine Snakes. When she left Nine Snakes, she was the strongest warrior of the new generation.

"Come on, Sister Olga, I'll take you to experience the Nine Snakes' mountain spring baths."

Chapter 403: A planned drama

"Huh, it's really comfortable here, don't you think so, Elizabeth Yin?"

"Indeed, it's different from the hot springs in Wano Country."

In the bathhouse of Nine Snakes, all kinds of women are enjoying their life inside, including the King Kong Barbie, the petite loli, the big sumo wrestler, all kinds of women can be seen in Nine Snakes.

Yin Lizabeth and Olga were almost inseparable, and Yin Lizabeth had no interest in her egg, which seemed to be unable to hatch for a while.

This is related to the reproductive ability of the basilisk lizard itself. It lays small numbers of eggs and has a long incubation period. This factor has a lot to do with the basilisk lizard being defined as extinct by the outside world.

The unique geological environment created a completely different experience, but the only problem was that she was very dissatisfied with the sign next to her.

"The water ahead is deep..."

"No, kid, there's deep water ahead. You should wait two years before swimming there."

The influence of pure gold still exists. Although she has been growing slowly over the past decade, it is much slower than that of a normal person.

Her face had lost some of its childishness and was gradually becoming more like her mother's, but her figure had hardly developed at all.

"I'm not a kid, I'm 25."

25 are based on an eight-year basic cycle, plus the nearly 17 years since they left the belly of the sea king, so if you calculate her real age, even Guloliosa would have to call her sister.

When faced with negotiations with some so-called senior people, Baishou always sent Olga to deal with them, as relying on seniority to bully others was ineffective against her.

In a few words, the lake drove away the other bathers, and Hancock appeared here again, but unlike before, she had a python wrapped around her body.

"Sister Olga, this is Salome, my friend."

Many Amazon Lilies carried a snake, and Hancock's python with a white background and red flowers looked very beautiful among those snakes. Because there was no mark of the Celestial Dragons, the three sisters walked here nakedly. Anyway, the Nine Snakes had no men.

Her development is much more advanced than Olga's, the biggest difference being that she can float.

"Nice pet, it seems to be good at swimming?"

"Well, Salome loves swimming."

"That's a good hobby. Such partners are very important for people with special abilities."

After all, pirates are sailing on the sea, so there must be certain preventive measures against falling into the water. Almost no ship would do such stupid things that only people with special abilities can do. In that case, if the ship sinks, everyone can say goodbye together.

As a person who cannot fly, Olga relies on Inlisabeth to prevent herself from falling into the water. Both the basilisk's ability to run on the water and the Chameleon's ability to glide and dive can effectively prevent such things.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have soaked in the bathroom to the point where only her head was exposed. That feeling of powerlessness would cause her body's reaction to become very slow if she really encountered danger.

However, danger sometimes comes quietly. For example, for her, Hancock is a danger now.

"Wait, what do you want to do?"

"I'll rub your back for you."

"Hey, I've told you so many times, keep your hands to yourself!"

Because the water was too deep, Hancock's little trick was partially successful, but the gap in strength was there, and Olga soon successfully counterattacked. Yin Lisabeth did not intervene in the playfulness here. After all, it was not dangerous.

...

The next day, some dark circles could be seen under Guroliosa's eyelids. It seemed that she did not rest well. However, she had already made a decision. Relocation was too dangerous, and the Seven Warlords of the Sea was a good idea.

"What do you want to do?"

"Are there any rules for the succession of the emperor of your Nine Snakes?"

"Amazon Lily selects several candidates for the emperor in each generation. These are powerful young warriors. Hancock was originally a candidate for the emperor's successor."

It is very consistent with the culture of pirates. The emperor does not have to be of the same lineage, but he must be strong. Only in this way can a pirate nation survive.

"That's much more convenient. We can push Hancock to that position."

"But isn't that decided by the World Government?"

"Yes, it is decided by the World Government, but there are too many vacancies in their so-called Shichibukai now, so they are probably looking for more candidates."

This is indeed the case. When the Seven Warlords of the Sea system was proposed, the situation in the ocean was not so chaotic. However, with Roger opening the Great Pirate Era, and the emergence of the emperors of the sea who have reached the top today, the World Government has also begun to increase its efforts in this regard.

"They need deterrence. Is there any pirate today who is more intimidating than the Emperor of the Sea? So as long as Hancock can demonstrate her fruit ability during her maiden voyage discovered by the World Government and defeat a strong enough enemy, the invitation will come soon."

"you mean..."

"Let's put on a show. As a senior cadre under the Emperor of the Sea, this victory is enough. However, there is a question, that is, whether Hancock can become the emperor of the Nine Snakes and whether she can bear the position of Shichibukai."

The position of Shichibukai is no joke. Although it is not as easy to challenge as the position of Emperor of the Sea, it also requires real strength.

According to the normal timeline, she took over the position of Shichibukai shortly after becoming the Emperor of Amazon Lily at the age of 18.

And she was 15 years old this year, although she was three years younger, but her original three years as a slave had been spent in normal training.

Even if she ate the fruit earlier in the timeline when she was a slave, the purpose of the Celestial Dragons was not to let her petrify others. If we have to talk about strength, she is actually not much different from the 18-year-old in the original timeline, and has already reached the lower limit of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

However, Guroliosa is not sure whether Hancock is worthy of the position of Shichibukai and Emperor of the Nine Snakes.

Finally they reached an agreement, after which Nine Snakes would test Hancock's strength in their own way, and after confirming that she could do that, they would notify the Beasts and agree to the other party's request.

Amazon Lily is an entire country, and there is nothing wrong with not putting all your eggs in one basket.

Olga also left Amazon Lily with Hancock's farewell, and the ship of the Beasts headed north towards the North Sea.

After sailing for a while, they were close to the waters of Frevans, but the atmosphere here was completely different from what Yamato had imagined.

According to the records in that atlas, there should be a constant stream of ships entering and leaving Frevans, but right now the area is very deserted, with no ships entering. Even ships flying other flags have to undergo detailed inspection before leaving...

Chapter 404: The Tragedy of Frevans

There were search ships scattered on the sea, and the people on them were wearing heavy chemical protective suits and gas masks like the biological and chemical troops, as if they were worried that there were some dangerous goods on the ship.

On the bow, Yamato, holding a telescope, was a little confused about all this.

"Strange, isn't it said that this country has a thriving tourism industry?"

But this time no one answered her. This was the biggest difference between her voyage and the previous ones. The ordinary crew members on the ship would listen to her orders, but these people were just ordinary gift givers at most. Neither Arceus nor Olga would interfere.

Arceus was worried about accidents, while Olga was worried because her ability was the most convenient to use. When there was no direct combat, no one's ability was better than Olga's.

Yamato will sail alone in the future. Arceus's requirements are not high, but at least she must be able to survive alone. She can't be like Luffy, who would have ended up in that bucket if he had had a little less luck.

She is not required to master all the skills, but she must have basic judgment.

"Forget it, never mind, just keep moving forward!"

At the same time that Yamato made the decision, Olga also received instructions from Arceus and put a cross on a small notebook. It was obvious that this behavior was not recognized.

Yamato didn't know that someone was secretly grading her where she couldn't see, and this grade would affect her future courses and sailing time.

However, those people did not check the ship, because the standard for the waters near Frevans is now set as allowing entry but not exit, and they searched the outgoing ships only because they were worried that some Frevans people would follow them out.

Following Yamato's orders, the navigator and sailors on the ship continued to operate the ship. They were not worried at all that Yamato might cause trouble, as there were still people on the ship to support them.

However, as the voyage continued, there were many more crosses on the notebook.

"Master Arceus, I think Miss Yamato.. just needs more practice. After all, this is her first time commanding something like this."

"No, in this respect she is very similar to Kaido, but Kaido is too lazy to use his brain, and she is basically hopeless in this respect."

However, when she was docking, she finally got a mark other than the fork. At least she learned from the previous practice and hid the boat in a hidden place and then took a small boat to dock. The place where the boat docked was not Frevans, but a neighboring country of Frevans.

Because the port of Frevans has been blocked, and it was its neighboring country that did it.

Freifans is surrounded by the sea on both sides and its land area is not large. In contrast, its neighboring countries are all of large size, so it is easier to find a docking location here.

The people on the boat did not follow them, even Olga and Arceus had already hidden themselves. From the moment they docked, this was her journey. Apart from Maria and Robin, Diancie was the only one by her side.

Pokémon is also one of her powers at this time. The reason why she only brought Diancie is because Diancie's ability is more convenient in mining, and Quinn's chemistry class is still of some use.

Moreover, Diancie is much stronger than other Pokémon.

Yamato has basically failed in sailing, as she has no talent in this area, and her next goal is to see if she can successfully enter Frevans without Olga's help.

Frevans was not only blockaded at sea, but also surrounded by barbed wire on land. Guarding soldiers could be seen at intervals. This was because Frevans's platinum lead disease had broken out.

Although platinum lead has its uses in various places, it is a toxic mineral.

This poison will not harm the user, and will not be released if it is not mined, but once it is mined, the toxins contained in it will affect everyone in the area.

As early as a hundred years before the platinum and lead industry began to develop in Frevans, the world government's geological exploration team had explored this place and discovered the truth about platinum and lead.

However, in the face of huge profits, the world government and the royal family concealed all of this and forced ordinary people in Frevans to join the platinum and lead industry, constantly mining platinum and lead for them.

The people gained a lot of wealth, the per capita income of Frevans rose sharply, and the national happiness index also rose for a time, but they didn’t know that this money was exchanged for lives, not the lives of one or two people, but the lives of everyone.

The toxic content of platinum lead is very small, and this is exactly where platinum lead is most dangerous. This trace amount of toxin will continue to accumulate and will be passed on to future generations, making their lives shorter and shorter.

Today, the mining of platinum and lead has a history of almost a hundred years, and the accumulation of platinum and lead has reached the point where problems may arise.

Due to the cumulative characteristics of platinum and lead, three generations of a family became ill almost at the same time, white spots appeared on their body surface, and the whole family died in pain. Many families could not even find someone to collect the bodies.

This disease is like the South China Sea Emperor Fever of the past, with no cure. Now no doctor knows how to treat platinum-lead disease.

Moreover, neighboring countries treated the disease as an infectious disease and blocked all areas of Freifans, and anyone who tried to go out would be shot.

The royal family escaped with the help of the World Government, but ordinary people could only wait for death.

The World Government and these royal families all know that platinum-lead disease is not contagious, but is just a very deadly mineral disease, but they choose to conceal this truth because they still need people to mine platinum and lead for them.

If this news were to get out, the mining of platinum and lead would become very difficult. As long as all these people died and were disinfected, ordinary people would think it was safe.

New people will come to settle in the deserted Frevans, and in view of the huge profits, some people will continue to mine platinum and lead.

In this way, other royal families can continue to reap the benefits, the world government can continue to obtain platinum and lead, and make a fortune in the transportation industry, and the lives of ordinary people are what they give up.

Yamato hadn't decided what to do next, and her years of education had played a role. Faced with this strange Frevans, she did not rush in, but decided to investigate the situation first before going in.

However, at this moment, something happened within her sight that was hard for her to accept. Some people from within the barbed wire were moving towards the border. They were unarmed and seemed to be asking for help, but the soldiers outside seemed very scared and repeatedly ordered them to retreat.
