One Sword Superman of One Piece World

Chapter 577 Return to the Holy Land! (Two in One)

Even in the territory of the New Navy, Red-haired Shanks was calm and composed.

He and the New Navy had different demands and goals. Under the leadership of Zephyr, the New Navy hoped to inherit the will of Jiguo Yuanyi, and everything they did was to overthrow the rule of the Celestial Dragons.

However, there was a huge gap between the facts and reality. Without Jiguo Yuanyi, the New Navy had no way to suppress these powerful people in the New World.

Although the development of the New Navy seemed good in recent years, in fact, they were also restricted everywhere and deeply trapped in the quagmire of the New World.

At present, Shanks could even see the future of the New Navy. When Zephyr and Yixiao's generation grew old, once the New Navy had no successors, this huge force would probably be completely overturned in just a few decades.

And such problems would never happen to the World Government and the Navy Headquarters.

Shanks' understanding of the Celestial Dragons was even better than that of Zephyr and others.

During the long history, the biggest reason why the Celestial Dragons have been able to maintain their status and suppress countless strong men who tried to resist them is because the person who led the Celestial Dragons has never changed.

And it is the person hiding behind the Celestial Dragons who is one of the reasons why the World Government has always been strong.

Shanks once naively thought that a man like Tsugokuni Yoshiichi would definitely bring great changes to the world.

But the ending disappointed him after all.

And it was precisely because of Tsugokuni Yoshiichi's death that Shanks made up his mind completely. If the destined person did not appear, he would continue to be active in this world as a pirate and would never show any intention of resistance from beginning to end.

When the destined person appears, he will help.

Although Shanks and Buggy did not board Raftel with the Pirate King Roger, due to Shanks' special background, Roger had given Shanks a request before his death.

When Shanks thought of the innocent kid to whom he gave the straw hat, his eyes were filled with expectation.

"You will control the territory captured by the Red Hair Pirates."

"Red Hair Shanks, is that all you want?"

Zeff had a slicked-back hair and wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. His gentle appearance matched his burly figure inexplicably, and he exuded the temperament of a refined and wise general.

He spoke in a calm tone, and there was an inexplicable power in his words.

Shanks heard Zefa's words after a brief trance. He also looked at the people opposite him, shook his head gently, and said with a smile:

"Haha, of course it's not just that."

"The territory we seized is controlled by our Red Hair Pirates. This is a matter of course."

"If you want to cooperate with our Red Hair Pirates, you New Navy will naturally have to pay other prices."

"It's called cooperation, but I think both of us understand that it's your New Navy that needs our help."

"How can you ask someone to do something without paying any price?"

Although Shanks has a free and easy personality, he made his position clear when negotiating with the New Navy on behalf of the Red Hair Pirates.

Although his Red Hair Pirates are elite pirates, it does not mean that his power is only limited to the crew of that ship.

For example, Erubaf of the giant clan, there are many forces in this new world that have turned to their Red Hair Pirates, hoping to get the protection of the Red Hair Pirates.

Shanks always welcomes those "weak" forces that he hopes to be protected by. The Red Hair Pirates have even given back a lot of the wealth they have gained from robbing other pirates to some small countries under their control.

Their Red Hair Pirates are obviously one of the four emperors at the top of the New World, but the crew on their ship are all dressed simply. It is probably difficult for others to imagine that such a simple person is one of the four emperors.

If there is a chance to cooperate with the New Navy and make a fortune from the New Navy, Shanks will never miss such an opportunity.

Unlike the forces and countries controlled by his Red Hair Pirates, the New Navy is also building the economy as much as possible to support their huge army.

Desolo, under the name of "Golden Emperor", is madly making money outside. In addition to the surplus for his own needs, the rest of the money he earns is basically subsidized to the New Navy Headquarters.

And it is precisely because of Desolo's terrifying ability to make money that the New Navy can develop smoothly.

The head of the family, Zephyr, naturally knew that the money of the new navy was hard-earned. Hearing Shanks' words, he narrowed his eyes slightly and waited for Shanks' next words.

To the outside world, Shanks has always been a relatively mysterious person. No one knows what their Red Hair Pirates are pursuing.

Zephyr is no exception. He and Shanks have not had any in-depth contact. He doesn't know what kind of person the other party is. Therefore, when negotiating with the other party, he has always been very vigilant.

After a pause, Shanks' eyes suddenly revealed a look of nostalgia:

"Speaking of which, I once had a friendship with Yunyi."

"I admire him very much, and even. I once admired him a little."

"I once thought that he gave birth to someone who could change the world. Back in the East China Sea, I even thought about helping him find a certain devil fruit."

"Haha. I didn't expect that fate plays tricks on people."

"Even men like him are dead."

Shanks had a look of sadness on his face, and when he heard him mention Sikoku Enichi, the faces of several members of the New Navy became ugly.

The death of Tsukuni Enichi is a pain that cannot be talked about for the senior leaders of their new navy.

Several senior executives looked at Shanks with a dangerous look. They didn't like someone talking about Enichi Tsukuni in front of them, especially since the other person was a pirate.

"I know far more than you think."

"Even I know Enichi Jiguo as well as you do."

"Although my goals are different from those of your new navy, in general they will not conflict."

"I just want to ask one thing!"

"How did Jiguo Yuanyi kill the Five Old Stars?"

"Kill Saint Izanbalon V. Nasshoulang!"

The people present were either the top brass of the new navy, or the core members of their red-haired pirate group.

To these people, there were some things Shanks didn't need to hide at all.

Hearing Shanks' direct question, the people present had different expressions. Some people in the red-haired pirate group had never heard of the Five Old Stars at all, and they naturally had no idea about the name mentioned by Shanks. Don’t understand.

The expressions of several senior officials of the New Navy also changed slightly. After looking at each other, their gazes towards Shanks became extremely solemn.

The existence of the Five Old Stars is not a secret in the new navy, but the people who know this name are basically generals with the rank of lieutenant general or above.

This is because their naval system is related to the world government system. People in other than their system should have no way to learn about the information about the Five Old Stars.

In particular, Shanks actually knew the specific names of the Five Old Stars. He even knew that Saint Izambaron V. Nasjuro died at the hands of Enki Kokuen.

In the battle that took place on the Starting Island, the people present were either high-level officials of the World Government or high-level officials of the New Navy.

It’s impossible for the other Five Old Stars who survived the escape to spread the word about the death of someone with the highest authority after returning, right? !

As Shanks said, he indeed knew much more than Zefa and the others imagined.

"."

Several people in the New Navy fell into silence at this moment, everyone was thinking about the background and intention behind Shanks' words.

Will the news of the death of the Five Old Stars leak out from their new navy?

If it didn't come from their new navy, it must have come from the mouths of the surviving Five Old Stars themselves.

Then Shanks’ identity and stance are worth pondering.

Zefa stared at the young man across the conference table, with his hands on his chest, feeling very defensive in his heart.

After a brief thought, he spoke very decisively:

"I have no idea what you're talking about, Red-Haired Shanks."

"Our new navy can accept your previous conditions. The islands captured by your red-haired pirates can be controlled by your red-haired pirates."

"If you are willing to cooperate on this, then both of us can reach an intention to cooperate."

“As for the rest”

"If you, the red-haired pirates, have other ideas, I'm sorry we can't continue to cooperate."

With that said, Zefa stood up from his seat, turned around and walked towards the door of the conference room.

Just when Zefa opened the door and was about to leave, Shanks suddenly stood up:

"Mr. Zefa, do you really don't know or you don't want to say it?!"

"It's just a piece of information. Do you need to hold it in your hands?"

"Or do you mean you don't trust me?"

"If both of us cannot even achieve the most basic trust, is there any need for so-called cooperation?"

Shanks' words sounded more or less like coercion, but unfortunately, he chose the wrong target for coercion.

Zefa turned sideways slightly, glanced at Shanks without saying anything, opened the door and left.

Shanks wanted to continue to say something, but Mihawk, who had been silent until now, suddenly stood in front of Shanks:

"trust."

"Weak people need so-called trust when they seek partners."

"We do not have unconditional trust in our partners, and similarly, we never ask our partners to have unconditional trust in us."

"The basis of cooperation is strength, not so-called trust!"

None of the senior leaders of the New Navy stayed in the conference room. Qingzhi and Yixiao also followed Zefa and left. After Mihawk left these two words, he also left the conference room and disappeared into Shank. In Si's field of vision.

Negotiations break down

Shanks could tell from the attitude of the top brass of the New Navy that the New Navy seemed to have no intention of continuing to cooperate with their red-haired pirates.

"What? These guys in the New Navy are so crazy! They are obviously seeking our cooperation."

Jesus was a little dissatisfied with the attitude of the new navy's senior officials, and his tone was full of complaints.

His words were obviously recognized by everyone, and Laqi Lu and others also agreed one after another, obviously unwilling to stay here to see the face of the new navy.

Vice Captain Beckman behaved much calmer, or he knew more things than ordinary crew members.

Seeing the senior officers of the new navy leave, he approached Shanks and said with a smile:

"Shanks, you are still too impatient."

"I said let's take it step by step. Without the basis of cooperation, asking such questions rashly will inevitably arouse suspicion."

"What should we do next?"

Hearing Beckman's slightly teasing words, Shanks suddenly laughed in a short silence.

"Hahahahaha!"

"It's really a misstep!"

"Well~ There's nothing we can do about it. In this case, let's try to cooperate first."

"Those islands must be taken eventually. The route to Raftel must be controlled in our hands!"

Shanks said to the crew members nonchalantly. Seeing his nonchalant look, the crew members also laughed.

The cheerful and open-minded Shanks has always been their backbone. They will not mind anything that the captain doesn't mind.

When the negotiations between the new navy and the Red Hair Pirates "broke down", Tsugikoku Yoriichi and Oliva, who set sail from Pluto, were also "drifting" on the sea.

Sailing life is not boring for them. The two of them also fished and chatted during this period of time, and their understanding of each other was also deeper.

As time passed, the boat they were riding on was getting closer and closer to the holy land of Marinjoa.

After sailing for almost half a month, the Red Earth Continent also appeared in their sight.

On this day, the weather on the sea was not good, the morning fog was thick, and the Red Earth Continent in the distance was looming in the clouds and mist, and it was not clear.

Standing on the deck, Jiguo Yuichi watched the record pointer in his hand slightly tilted up towards the sky, and he also understood that their destination was finally coming.

Along the way, Jiguo Yuichi's food and accommodation were all on the boat. The limited number of times he passed by the island to replenish supplies was also handled by Oliva, and Yuichi never showed up.

Now, I can finally add some different experiences to my ordinary life.

"Oliva, after I leave, you don't have to wait here, go directly to the Sabaody Archipelago."

"After I leave the holy land, I will contact you with a Den Den Mushi."

Tsugokuni Yuichi and Oliva obviously had a plan in advance. Hearing this, Oliva smiled and nodded: "Don't worry."

As he spoke, Tsugokuni Yuichi's figure turned into a golden stream of light and shot directly towards the Red Earth Continent. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from Oliva's sight.

Looking at the golden light disappearing from his vision, Oliva bowed slightly in the direction of Tsugokuni Yuichi and whispered a blessing:

"I wish you good luck in martial arts."
