One Piece: Fist of the World

Prodians Kingdom.

This is a neighboring country of Dressrosa and also a member of the World Government.

There are three countries on the island where the Prodians Kingdom is located. The Prodians Kingdom is the strongest. The other two countries have always joined hands to fight against it. At one time, they almost captured the fortress of the Prodians Kingdom with their army. Fortunately, with the help of King Riku, their country was saved from defeat.

After that, the three countries signed a friendly treaty and there has been no conflict for more than ten years.

However, all this changed five years ago.

Five years ago, Dressrosa suddenly changed, King Riku was overthrown, and Doflamingo became the new king of Dressrosa.

After that, the Prodians Kingdom, which had been peaceful for more than ten years, suddenly began to have friction with the other two countries. The friction became more and more serious and soon evolved into local conflicts and even small wars.

However, under an invisible black hand, the war between the three countries has always maintained a balance. There has been no full-scale war that has swept the country, nor has there been a winner. Even the peace talks are always interrupted by various accidents.

In this way, the battle between the three countries lasted for more than four years.

The Kingdom of Prodians, the fortress in front.

King Elizabello II, wearing a crown, stood on the fortress, his red and blue cloak fluttering in the wind, revealing his strong muscles.

"Does the Kingdom of Leon want to make peace?"

Elizabello II looked outside the fortress.

A few days ago, Elizabello II received news that Doflamingo was defeated by Tyrant Rod, and King Riku returned to take control of Dressrosa. Elizabello II was happy for his old friend from the bottom of his heart, and he was eager to defeat the other two countries and end this war that lasted for more than four years.

Not long after that, Elizabello II clearly felt that the offensive of the Kingdom of Leon, which had been provoking the battle, had slowed down.

The Kingdom of Leon was originally the weakest of the Three Kingdoms, and had always been supporting the Kingdom of Merkson. But for some reason, it was quite active in this war, and the military strength it showed was completely inconsistent with the national strength of their country.

Elizabero II has always suspected that there is some force supporting the other party in secret.

But it doesn't make sense. If there is really someone plotting behind the scenes, just a little more power is needed to defeat the Kingdom of Prodians.

But the Kingdom of Leon did not, but adjusted their military forces according to the war forces invested by the Kingdom of Prodians, so that this war has always maintained a state of neither winning nor losing.

Until these two days, it was obvious that the attack power of the Kingdom of Leon suddenly decreased, and today it even issued an application for a ceasefire, so that Elizabero II, who was sitting in the capital, rushed to the front fortress.

"Humph, let me see what conspiracy he has!"

Elizabero II snorted coldly, and then took the military advisor Da Gama and some of his personal guards to the place of negotiation agreed by both parties.

A moment later, in a temporary shed, Elizabello II frowned and looked at the man opposite.

"Baquan Rhodes!"

After saying the other person's name in a deep voice, Elizabello II glanced around vigilantly.

"Why are you here!"

"In short, the war between you was provoked by the Don Quixote family. Now the Don Quixote family has been destroyed by me. I don't like the things he used to do."

Rhodes slowly poured himself a glass of wine and looked at the sturdy king in front of him.

The arms business is an important source of funds for the Don Quixote family.

And if you want the arms business to be prosperous, is there any better way than to provoke a war?

Not only in the Kingdom of Prodians, but also in the New World and even the whole world, there are many wars provoked by the Don Quixote family.

Countries fight to the death, countless soldiers die on the battlefield, and the Don Quixote family makes a lot of money from the arms business.

After taking over everything from the Don Quixote family, Rhodes didn't need to do anything. As long as he maintained the original situation, he could continue to sell arms around the world and make a lot of money.

But Rhodes didn't like it.

Although he didn't have much sense of identity with this world, and had no ambition to save the world, he didn't like this way of provoking wars and selling arms to make money.

He had his own way of doing things.

"I see!"

Being able to become king, Elizabero II was naturally not a fool. After hearing what Rhodes said, he immediately figured out the reason for everything.

No wonder the military forces between the three parties have always maintained a balance, and the war has never ended. It turns out that this is the result of someone manipulating behind the scenes.

"So, what is your purpose?"

After figuring this out, Elizabero II looked at Rhodes again.

The other party must have other things, otherwise he wouldn't come here in person.

"Just to discuss a cooperation."

Rhodes didn't speak. Bakara, who was standing beside him, took out an agreement and explained it to Elizabero II.

"You have to sign a contract with Baquan Security Company, and then you can fly our flag, and Baquan Security Company will be responsible for your security issues."

"As for the cost, based on the calculation of 50,000 beli per person per year, your country has a population of about 200,000, which is 10 billion beri per year."

"How about, as long as you pay 10 billion beli every year, the security of your country can be guaranteed."

With a smile on her face, Baccarat was thoughtfully calculating for Elizabello II.

"With the protection of Baquan Security Company, the military expenditure your country saves every year is almost enough to pay for this expense, not to mention that the laid-off soldiers can still go to work and earn more wealth."

"Are you kidding me?"

Elizabello II's face turned cold.

How could he agree to the other party's request?

If the country's military is abolished and the country's security is completely entrusted to others, is this still his country? Is he still a king?

"The Kingdom of Prodence is a member of the World Government. Does the Shichibukai want to usurp the country?"

"You won't forget what happened to your predecessor, Shichibukai Crocodile!"

Elizabeth II threatened Rhodes.

More than half a year ago, the World Economic News broke the news that Crocodile intended to usurp the country. After that, he was deprived of the title of Shichibukai and regained his identity as a pirate.

Does this Dominant Fist Rhodes also want to do the same thing?

"Oh oh oh~"

Baccarat pretended to be surprised and pushed up the glasses she wore specially to suit her status as secretary.

"How can we usurp the country?"

"We are an official security company established by the World Government!"

Elizabello II's heart sank.

He knew very well about the World Government's urinary nature, and it was really possible that this was something the other party would do.

As long as it is in the interests of the world government, they will never care about the life and death of these participating countries.

"I heard that you have a King's Fist move?"

Rhodes suddenly looked at Elizabeth II and asked.

According to rumors, Elizabello II mastered a powerful move called the Fist of the King, which could instantly penetrate the enemy's fortress with just one blow. Even if he was as powerful as the Yonko, he would still be hit. Killed on the spot.

It was because he heard this rumor that he came to the Kingdom of Prodence. Otherwise, he could just send others over.

"After all, this world still relies on fists to speak."

"Let's do this. I'll give you time to accumulate strength. If you can hurt me, I will reduce your fee to 100 million beli. How about that?"

"no problem!"

Elizabello II showed a confident smile on his face and agreed directly without waiting for the military advisor to speak.

Strategist Vasco da Gama hesitated for a moment, then said nothing.

According to the conditions stated by Ba Fist Rhodes, no matter what, Prodence Kingdom will sign an agreement with their security company. The difference is only the cost.

He deliberately wanted to point this out and renegotiate the terms.

However, in the news that came before, the Fist Lord in front of him defeated the Yonko Kaido head-on!

If the news is correct, facing such a strong man, they have no room to resist.

On the contrary, if the information is incorrect, the other party does not have such strong power.

Then, with the King's Fist of the King, he might be able to defeat the opponent with one blow!

In the adoring and expectant eyes of the Prodence Kingdom soldiers, Elizabello II waved his fists and performed warm-up exercises. As he moved, Rhodes could feel that there was a force in his body. He recovered bit by bit, and his powerful momentum gradually gathered as he warmed up.

It's just that it's too slow!

The accumulation of that power was too slow. Rhodes went from being very excited at the beginning, to boring, and then to drowsiness. It was not until he leaned on the chair and took a nap that he was gently shaken awake by Baccarat.

"The warm-up is complete."

Rhodes stood up and looked at Elizabello II. Feeling the aura emanating from him, he finally became interested.

"You have to think carefully, do you really want to accept my fist?"

Elizabello II's body was steaming with heat. After completing the warm-up, terrifying power accumulated in his body, causing his body temperature to rise a lot, and the heat was dissipated from his body.

"If you are beaten to death by my fist, don't regret it!"

"You are a little too confident."

Rhodes clenched his fist suddenly, and the air in his hand was squeezed out with a roar. After the battle with Kaido, Rhodes' body became stronger, and he could even detect a ceiling, which was the limit of physical strengthening.

As the battles progressed, his domineering energy was tempered and became stronger. The moment he clenched his fist, the domineering energy emerged from his body and flowed on his arms.

Facing the legendary "King's Fist" that could kill the Four Emperors with one punch, Rhodes did not rely on his strength, but used all his strength.

"bring it on!"

As Rhodes finished speaking, Elizabello II punched out his fist. Terrifying black lightning suddenly appeared in the air. Powerful power instantly burst out and was released unreservedly towards Rhodes.

boom! !

Under the violent impact, the hastily built shed was torn apart in an instant, and the terrifying punch plowed a deep mark on the ground, spreading all the way into the distance.

"Hoo~~ho~~ho~~!"

Ilizabello II bent down slightly, as if he had lost all his energy. He raised his head stubbornly and looked at what was in front of him.

This was the strongest punch he had ever made. Even if there was a mountain in front of him, it would be reduced to ashes by that blow.

"It's powerful!"

A voice came from the smoke in front of him, making Elizabello II's pupils dilate instantly.

The smoke dissipated, and when he saw Rhodes' appearance, Elizabello II was even more shocked.

No injuries!

He took on his strongest punch ever, and except for the slight damage to his clothes, Rhodes was actually unscathed.

"However, with just this level, there is still a long way to go to kill the Four Emperors."

Rhodes' domineering aura burst out from his body, as if the impact of the materialization set off a wave of air, blowing away all the smoke and dust around him. Rhodes walked in front of Elizabello II and took the gloves off his hands.

"The conditions are the same as before, hurry up and sign the agreement."

"If anyone dares to invade in the future, just contact our Baquan Security Company directly."

Putting away the gloves and saving them in his cupboard, Rhode patted Elizabello II on the shoulder, then turned around and walked towards the port.

The agreements with the other two countries had already been signed. When Elizabello II also signed the agreement, the entire island would be under the rule of the Rhode Pirates.

And the other countries around have also arranged other members of the pirate group.

In this way, the preliminary plan is completed.

With Dressrosa as the center, nearly ten islands have all been flagged by the Rhode Pirates.

However, such occupation is still a bit too superficial and formalistic.

Although it is true that money can be received from these countries, simply making money is not Rhode's purpose.

He needs to rule these places more deeply, so that these countries and people will become a community of interests with him. In this way, even if he leaves the Seven Warlords of the Sea in the later period, these countries and people can become his power reserve and provide him with a steady stream of combat power.

And if you want to do this, you need a huge industry that can involve all islands and countries.

Through a huge industry, all these countries are included, and they all become a link in the entire industry. Only in this way can these countries and people be tied to themselves.

And there is one industry that can meet such requirements that Gray has always been thinking about.

Shipbuilding industry!

Bakara handed the agreement to Elizabero II, and without waiting for him to say more, he turned around and left after leaving a Den Den Mushi, and quickly followed Rhodes.

What should be said has been said, and what should be shown has been shown.

If Elizabero II still can't see the situation, the next time he comes with the agreement will be the employees of the Baquan Security Company employed by the other two countries.

As a country that has not signed an agreement with the company and threatens the safety of the company's customers, Baquan Security Company has to take some actions to prevent it from happening.

"Any response?"

Rod looked at Bakara who followed him.

"About letting Franky join the shipyard we are planning!"
