Six Paths of Pirates

Chapter 184 The Beginning of an Era
The world spent hundreds of days and nights peacefully after that shocking war, and now it is 1522 in the lunar calendar.

It is rare for the powerful forces entrenched in all parties to make no moves during this period. Although people are a little unaccustomed to it, they don't care much. Only the big shots who really stand on the high ground can clearly know that an unprecedented storm is brewing secretly, and this The great changes that are destined to take place will profoundly affect the future of the world and the destiny of the world no matter what form it presents.

While the dark tide is raging, the big shots are also waiting and watching, because the two forces that really stir up this storm are existences beyond their reach.

It was against this background that a man who had faded from his youth and childishness landed on the Chambord Islands again after two years.

Today's people don't know that the great wheel of the times has begun to collapse at this moment because of this tiny part. This young man, who was once called a momentary situation, but has been forgotten by many people, will inadvertently attract those who have long been entangled. But it was the unbearable power that caused a unparalleled storm to land on this world ahead of schedule.

Chambord Islands number 70 to 79. This area is dominated by hotel streets. Correspondingly, there are many taverns and restaurants. Therefore, it is the best place for people to gather, talk and exchange information.

"Hey, have you heard, today is the pirate group... what is it called? Oh, oh! Straw Hat Boy, the day they reunited, his crew has been appearing on the island since the morning." In a certain tavern, a man sitting at the bar raised his glass and said to the drinking buddies in the room.

If it were two years ago, such news would have attracted everyone's attention and endless discussions, but now, most of the drinkers are still drinking on their own, and only a few people raised their heads to respond to him.

Moreover, even those who took up the topic, their reactions were no longer as curious and excited as before, and their words were full of indifference and alienation.

"The Straw Hat Pirates? It's rare news in this dull and boring day, after all, it's hard to see pirates on the island now."

"Who said it wasn't? I think Marshal Akainu moved the naval headquarters to the New World, which greatly reduced the radiation and control over Shambord. For a time, except for the naval base on Island 66, almost all of the island became Illegal zone. I thought that I would not be able to live here in the future. I was about to leave, but the big battle on Sulph Island happened. The chaos on the island stopped for most of the time, and the number of pirates remained It keeps decreasing until it looks like this today. Who can believe that this place was famous as the place where the pirates started again two years ago?"

"Hahaha! That's right, the place of departure again is a name I haven't heard for a long time, because the new world ahead is no longer dominated by pirates, and what is left for them now is the first half of the great route. "

"The term "Paradise" in the first half is finally worthy of the name today. Now, perhaps the so-called era of great pirates is coming to an end."

Hearing that the few people in the tavern were about to divert the topic in a few words, the man at the bar came in again, and said with a smile: "Hey, hey, I'm talking about the straw hats, why are they talking so much? Far?"

Hearing this, a man below patted his forehead: "Ah! Yes."

But then he couldn't help saying: "But what else is there to talk about about pirates now? To be honest, I don't know whether to admire their courage or lament their stupidity for the Straw Hats. Instead of going to the front with fear and frustration, it is better to go back to the first half or nest in the four seas and have a good time."

"That's it."

"That's right!"

After the man finished speaking, the drinkers who answered the conversation also echoed.

Seeing the reactions of the drinking buddies, the man chuckled and shook his head, and said nothing more, because his thoughts were actually the same.

The days of discussing pirates with excitement or fear have long passed. In the past, people were so keen to understand the adventures of pirates because of the huge power of pirates, especially the emperors who appeared among them who could forcibly shake the navy. Emperor, but people today already know that pirates are no longer qualified to stand at the top, and the corresponding attention will naturally decline or even disappear.

This phenomenon has developed to the extreme, and there are people who assert that the era of great pirates is coming to an end, because pirates are gradually weakening, and because the glory of the founder of this era, Goldo Roger, has been overwhelmed and covered up .

The king of Dressrosa, Uzumaki Nagato of the "Six Paths", after the battle of Sulph Island, the legend of this man has surpassed the so-called One Piece!
It's no wonder that people outside the "paradise" have gradually lost interest in the topic of pirates. Even the man who first brought up the topic of straw hats here stopped talking, and silently drank alcohol in his seat.

As a result, the Straw Hat Pirates, who were supposed to attract the attention of the crowd and even cause disturbances, gathered again, but now they received nothing but the indifference of the islanders.

But after a two-year absence, the joy of meeting the companions again washed away all these complicated thoughts and emotions. The first time they met each other, they were full of excitement and excitement.

"Ah! Usopp, long time no see! What, it's become stronger!" In a coffee shop, Nami saw her partner and hugged him directly into her arms.

"Of course it's strong." Usopp pulled his head out of the mountains with great difficulty, compared himself with his right thumb, and said proudly, "Sorry, I have already graduated from the weak trio of you and Chopper. No matter Whatever happens, I will have no fear, I have become such a fighter!"

On one coast, the rivals of the pirates also met together.

"Stop wandering around the island, Lu Chi Luzaotou, everyone will gather soon, so stop talking nonsense and follow me back to the boat!"

"Ah? You are the seventh to arrive, yet you still dare to show off in front of number one, you idiot Kappa!"

Of course, it wasn't just them, the rest of Robin, Chopper, Franky, Brooke and others also reunited sooner or later, and then all rushed to gather at Island 17 where the Sonny was moored.

However, things are not really that simple.

Even if ordinary people gradually no longer care about the dynamics of pirates, the navy, which flaunts itself in the name of justice, will never let them off easily.

Naval Base 66.

A stout man wearing a bellyband stood at the gate of the base, and behind him stood ten people who were taller and stronger than him. What was even more incredible was that the clothes and appearance of these ten people were exactly the same. !
The leading man is Zhan Momomaru, Vegapunk's former bodyguard, and behind him is the pacifist, the masterpiece of the world's number one scientist.

However, in the capacity of Zhan Taomaru, such a large number of powerful weapons have been assembled, which is still not the main force and leadership of Naval Base 66 today.

The reason why Zhan Taowan stood here was to wait for the person coming at this time.

Seeing a raging fire falling in front of him, after confirming the identity of the other party, Zhan Taomaru saluted and shouted: "Report, the navy Zhan Taomaru and the pacifist troops are already in place, please order, General 'Jiang Ying' !"

The flames dissipated, and a man with a stern face appeared here. He was wearing a plaid coat and dark sunglasses on the bridge of his nose. Who else could it be if it wasn't Virgo?

In the scorching air, he said coldly: "Very good, follow me immediately and arrest the Straw Hat gang!"
