Pirate of Darkness

"It's finally time." Shanks raised his glass.

This was a grand banquet to celebrate the red-haired pirates becoming emperor, and their goal was finally achieved.

You can relax, after all, this year has been very tiring. Although he was the one who took action, the other members' minds were always following him.

Shanks can also breathe a sigh of relief. Forced by the times, he has not been able to travel well at all.

From evading Garp's pursuit to increasing strength, training under Rayleigh's guidance, to occupying territory in the new world, becoming the overlord of one party, fighting against numerous pirate groups, and fighting against the Demon Pirate Group.

In order to become an emperor, he continued to accumulate strength, and now he finally succeeded.

Some things had to be done. What he wanted most was to travel on the sea. Then he finally had the opportunity to return to the way he was when the pirate group was first established.

"But we can't relax. Those monsters are each stronger than the last. There is still a gap in our strength." Beckman reminded from the side, so that Shanks could not stop.

"Yes." Shanks nodded, his face a little solemn. He had personally fought many monsters. He knew clearly that they were stronger than imagined.

Especially Big Mom, the weird gravity suppression made it very difficult for him to fight, and he was unable to show his speed advantage.

Coupled with bigmom's terrifying strength, powerful strength and physique.

There are also two powerful Homiz, Thunder and Fire. The cloak behind him has strong defensive power. He is a Homiz and can protect Big Mom independently, weakening his offensive advantage and making it difficult for him to hurt Big Mom.

This made him feel as if he wasn't fighting with one person, and that's why he lost in three days.

Kaido is equally powerful.

Shanks guessed that his current combat power was probably equivalent to that of Kozuki Oden when he fought Kaido.

Oden's physique is stronger and his swordsmanship is superior.

But Shanks' Overlord Color Coil is even more powerful. His swordsmanship has been inherited from Rayleigh, and combined with Overlord Color's domineering energy, the power is not weak with the increase.

Just focus on strength, not sharpness.

Although powerful,

It can cause injuries to Kaido, but it cannot directly break Kaido's defense like Kozuki Oden and cause heavy damage to Kaido.

Facing Kaido, who has a strong physique, dragon scale defense, and super defense, it is difficult for him to cause direct damage to Kaido.

In other words, the effect is not as strong as Kozuki Oden's swordsmanship.

What's more, Kaido's strength seems to have improved compared to before.

The behavior of seeking death is becoming more and more intense, and it is used as a test subject for Quin's Plague Virus to develop the fruit's adaptability.

Swim in lava, crawl in the deep sea, or be shocked by powerful electric currents.

Instead of committing suicide, Kaido found a better way to improve his strength, which also benefited from the powerful power of the Beast Pirates today.

Whitebeard also gave him a great sense of oppression, an absolutely terrifying power.

But at the same time, Shanks also felt Whitebeard's weakness. The battle with the Dark Emperor was indeed Whitebeard's peak period.

The last Ares, I have to say that the first powerful enemy, was the only one without weapons among the several powerful enemies he faced.

His powerful physical skills, monster-like physique and resilience are not much weaker than Kaido's.

Although he does not have Kaido's elemental abilities, Ares is a killing machine, especially when he transforms back into the ant king form, every part of his body is a weapon.

Compared to other top powerhouses, Ares gave him a stronger sense of crisis. Without using Haki, his physical strength was terrifyingly strong. Four sharp claws attacked at the same time, making it difficult for him to react.

The domineering power of seeing and hearing had to be used to the extreme.

The terrifying power was even greater than that of Big Mom, Kaido, and Whitebeard, making Shanks dare not continue to confront them head-on.

He spends most of his time resisting or avoiding, trying to avoid direct confrontation, because Ares's power is so powerful. That simple and ultimate power is beyond imagination.

The influence of Shanks becoming emperor has not ended so soon.

This incident was basically on the front pages of the world's media.

In this process, battle after battle demonstrated the absolute power of pirates. Each force was terrifyingly strong. These big pirates stood on top of the world.

The momentum of the pirates is gradually increasing, and the pirates are having a carnival, and the navy will naturally be negatively affected.

East China Sea, Windmill Village, Luffy, who is eleven years old, wearing a straw hat on his head and holding milk, is celebrating happily in the bar, together with Ace and other villagers in the bar.

Now Luffy is not a newbie who doesn't know anything. He has not let go of the important image battles. Every time he and Ace snatched the money, he invested it in purchasing the images.

Especially the free important live broadcasts and the battles where Shanks becomes emperor, Luffy will not miss them.

However, based on his vision, it was difficult to see the specific battle conditions of these monsters. He just felt that the battle was very fierce, and he needed to understand the specific situation through the slow-down battle commentary after the battle.

Before Shanks left Windmill Village, he didn't know that Shanks was such a powerful pirate, as well as the various members of the Red-Haired Pirates.

After that, Luffy has been paying attention to the red-haired pirates, the battle for the emperor, the war with the devil pirates, and now the battle to become the emperor. After many battles, even Ace can't Prevent.

Besides, Ace didn't want to miss it. They hadn't gone to sea yet, and the best way to understand the outside world was to watch the images.

Their dream is to become the Pirate King, so these monsters in the new world will be their imaginary enemies. Isn’t it reasonable to know the strength of the enemy?

However, they all know that there is a huge gap in strength between themselves and those real monsters now. It is a sea area where monsters gather, and they are not even qualified to set foot on it with their own flags.

"Red-haired Shanks? It's a pity that we don't have a chance to meet. I will definitely visit after I go to sea." Ace had a smile on his face. He was three years older than Luffy and was already fourteen years old. They decided to He went to sea at the age of seventeen, only three years after Ace went to sea.

"Well, Ace, say hello to Shanks for me then. I won't be able to go to sea for another six years." Luffy nodded, wishing that he would grow up quickly and time would pass by quickly.

The Emperor of the Sea, if you want to become the Pirate King, you must defeat them.

The Big Mom Pirates, the Beasts Pirates, and the Whitebeard Pirates who may have the Signpost Stone are known to have the Signpost Stone.

Even the Red Hair Pirates and the Night Pirates need to be defeated in order to become the Pirate King.

Currently, their mission is to improve their strength and keep fighting.

They have seen the cruelty of the sea. Among the red-haired pirates, several members familiar to Luffy died in the war with the devil pirates.

Luffy didn't want this scene to happen, and he was ready to wake up and die on the sea.

Similarly, Ace is also under a lot of pressure because he wants to surpass Roger. The strength displayed by those monsters is indeed beyond his reach, and he needs more efforts to improve his strength.

Without enough strength, his wish cannot be realized at all.

Thanks to his hard work and the training of Garp who comes back every once in a while, Ace has strong potential. Although he is only fourteen years old, Ace is already a little monster. After fighting again and again, Luffy is no match at all.

Each of these battles was fierce and had widespread consequences.

Some important information was also revealed and became known.

Even if there are only battle images and no dialogue, under the analysis of a group of masters, they can still get a rough idea.

The Navy and the World Government pay special attention to this, because the power displayed by the pirates is indeed terrifying and puts a lot of pressure on them.

"How's it going?" Sengoku asked He looking to the side in the Navy Headquarters conference room.

"Well, that's almost it." He nodded and said softly, still remaining calm, but there was a hint of fatigue in his words.

She hasn't had a good rest these days.

But there is no way. Intelligence analysis is the job of the staff department, and the workload is huge. Based on the power displayed by these new world monsters this year, combined with the intelligence recorded in the past, a summary is made.

She is the busiest among the staff.

In the huge conference room, most of the senior navy officials were present, and branch and base directors like Novoya were also called to attend the meeting.

Three generals, including Sakaski, were also present.

The power of the New World Navy has shrunk somewhat. The attack by the Big Mom Pirates a year ago and the destruction of the G2 branch made the Navy realize that the New World is still a world of pirates.

The power of just one Big Mom pirate group is very terrifying, and they can easily destroy a fortress just by thinking about it.

The most important thing is that the Big Mom Pirates suddenly appeared, and by the time they reacted, it was already too late.

If the information about the Big Mom Pirates had been known in advance and the navy had been prepared, this would not have been the result.

Although he was very angry, the navy still endured it and did not launch a war against the Big Mom Pirates.

"Listen carefully, what I'm going to talk about next is the information about these monsters collected by this department."

The light dimmed slightly, and the figure of red-haired Shanks appeared directly on the huge screen.

"Red-haired Shanks has proven his strength through battles this year and has become the new emperor of the sea in the new world."

"The captain of the Red Hair Pirates. When he was young, he was a trainee pirate on board the Roger Pirates. He has strong overall strength."

Shanks has no shortcomings, his strength is all-round, and he is very powerful in all aspects.

The reason why they were defeated was that they were somewhat weak compared to those monsters with innate physical strength.

But Shanks's advantages are also very obvious.

"The red-haired Overlord is very powerful. He is an anomaly in this regard. He has super destructive power. In terms of the Overlord's entanglement, he is better than many pirates and is temporarily under the Dark Emperor."

Because the Dark Emperor is also an anomaly, the navy also has some records on the special features of the Overlord's color.

Both of them possess innately powerful overlord colors.

He didn't think that the red-haired one was stronger than the Dark Emperor in terms of the intensity of the Overlord's domineering power, at least the current red-haired one was still not enough.

"As the youngest sea emperor, Hongfa's strength is temporarily ranked last among them, but with strong potential, in the next few years, Hongfa's strength can be expected to continue to improve, so we need to be vigilant."

"The bounty is set at 3.2386 billion beli, and it will be announced after the meeting."

Then, the screen changed to BigMom's figure.

"Bigmom Charlotte Lingling, the captain of the BigMom Pirates. According to intelligence, she has revealed a fourth Homitz, which is the red cloak behind her. It has strong defense and can flexibly change its shape."

He said, pressing the button twice, and the screen changed to Big Mom's figure in battle, with the main close-up right behind Big Mom.

The cloak, like an invincible defense, blocked Shanks' attacks time and time again.

The Navy does not know information about gravity because gravity is invisible unless one of them experiences it.

"Bigmom has changed a lot. His fighting skills, strength, physique, and domineering have all been enhanced to a certain extent, which is completely unexpected."

"Next is Kaido. We already know him relatively well, and his combat power has improved to a certain extent."

Kaido often comes to the Navy to provoke him, and the Navy Headquarters' information about him is not out of date, so he passes by quickly.

The figure of Whitebeard appears.

"Whitebeard is a little old, but he still maintains a very strong combat power. In a few years, our opportunity may appear."

Whitebeard's strength has begun to decline, and anyone with a discerning eye can see it.

This maritime legend is already a sixty-four-year-old man.

They could hear the meaning in He's words. The current structure of one emperor and four emperors was a great threat to the navy. If this structure was to be broken, Whitebeard would probably be the breakthrough.

But not now, we still have to wait.

Even so, many marines were still in high spirits, imagining what a great honor it would be for the navy if they defeated the Whitebeard Pirates.

In fact, the situation is not that optimistic, because now there are five real kings in the sea, and even if one falls, there will still be four.

And there are many powerful pirates below, and new emperors may be added soon.

More importantly, the Night Pirates currently have a hostile relationship with the Whitebeard Pirates. They have experienced wars and have basically no friction with other forces.

Under such circumstances, the alliance between the Big Mom Pirates and the Night Pirates is simply unstoppable.

What's more, the Night Pirates' own strength is very terrifying, and the war with the Whitebeard Pirates is as easy as training.

"The fierce god Ares, a real monster, the third in command of the Night Pirates, possesses terrifying power. In terms of pure strength, no one can match him. He is the strongest in the world."

During the introduction, some intercepted battle videos were also played so that they could feel it more directly. They were basically Shanks and his group's battle clips. This was the latest and most valuable.

This kind of introduction is mainly for the top strong men in the navy, or close strong men. It is difficult for others to resist these monsters, and they are just delivering food.

Seeing the power of these monsters, even Sengoku and Garp are under a lot of pressure, let alone the three generals, which means Porusalino may be able to relax.

He did not introduce the overall strength of these pirate groups. This is also a secret in the navy and will not be easily known to ordinary senior officials.

Once it is said, it will greatly damage the confidence of many navies, because the strength of each pirate group is very terrifying and has many powerful cadres.

One pirate group is fine, but if two pirate groups unite, it will be difficult for the Navy Headquarters to sustain itself.

Even if victory is achieved in the end, the navy will not have much strength left.

During this year, in addition to the red-haired battles with various monsters, a lot of things happened.

The most eye-catching thing is the screening of Pirates of the Caribbean 2. The price of the movie ticket has not changed. It is still 10,000 Baileys, which is equivalent to a piece of branded clothing.

Immediately afterwards, there is the epic blockbuster "Blue Dragon vs. Black Dragon" released by the Beast Pirates. The movie ticket price is 3,000 Baileys, which is a more appropriate price.

The most important thing is that this film does not have as big an influence as Pirates of the Caribbean, and it cannot be compared with Pirates of the Caribbean in terms of sophistication.

Before promoting the film, the film needs to be appraised to determine how much the tickets are worth.

This still gives the Beasts Pirates some face, otherwise the price would be even lower.

Because according to the requirements of the World Cinema Association, the price of a movie ticket should not exceed 3,000 beli.

Pirates of the Caribbean is a special case.

Because movie tickets are cheap, they can be easily sold, allowing people to have spare money to come and watch them, and speeding up the development of the film and television industry.

Even with the guidance of the Night Pirates, the Double Dragon Battle is still eye-catching in the eyes of professionals. It can be said that there is no acting skills. Many people are attracted to it because of the battle between the two sides.
