Pirates control thunder and lightning

Although Inazuma Island is a small island, its area is quite considerable, and its terrain structure is also very strange, like an altar.

The island is surrounded by a flat beach, and it can be said that the entire island is an easy place to land.

Going inland from the beach, you will pass through a forest. After that, the terrain will instantly rise like a high wall.

Climbing up the high wall is a forest, and continuing forward is another high wall-like rock wall.

The island with such a wall has nine floors. You can still see life below the fifth floor. From the fifth floor upwards, you can hardly see any green plants and creatures, and lightning will fall from the sky from time to time. There are holes in the ground. .

And as the number of layers increases, the number of lightning will gradually increase. When it reaches the top layer, it is almost a forest of thunder and lightning, which is not a place where humans can stay.

To use Simon's words to describe it, it is the best place to destroy corpses and eliminate traces. No matter what corpse is thrown in, it won't take a long time not even the bones and residue will be left.

This island was one of the many islands that Nicholas captured from Whitebeard and Charlotte Lingling.

Although the environment on the top floor is extremely harsh, the areas on the first, second and third floors can be said to be quite rich.

This island is called the Island of God's Gift by its residents, which means that it is a gift from the gods.

There are forests on the first floor, food is grown on the second floor, and although the third floor cannot be cultivated, it breeds lush grasslands.

Because natural fodder is abundant, the residents on the island raise many cattle and sheep on the third floor to meet their daily needs.

For the residents of the island, not long ago they thought that they would usher in a cruel ruler after losing the protection of Whitebeard. However, to their surprise, in addition to the arrival of a magical ship at the beginning, After staying here for a while, no one showed up again.

Their lives are still the same as before, nothing has changed much.

"Sometimes backward places also have advantages."

Simon couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the herdsmen grazing in the distance.

Simon stayed here for a while and commented on the island that ‘this is a very suitable place for retirement. ’

"I don't know how long the captain will need this time."

Simon, who was lying on the grass, looked up at the lightning-thundering mountain top and couldn't help but speak.

Since the Battle of Cake Island, Nicholas has come to this island to practice. As for the pirate group, Belin is responsible for it, and Simon is responsible for stationing here.

On this day, on the three-story grassland, flocks of sheep kept moving in one direction, making bleating sounds from time to time, which looked very abnormal.

In the center of these sheep, a huge boulder is rising and falling slowly. If you look closely, you will find that there is a man carrying a boulder under the boulder, and he is doing push-ups on the grass with his hands on the ground. .

The process of physical exercise has always been monotonous and boring. No matter what method is adopted, it is basically the same back and forth.

The most important thing about physical training is not the method, but persistence.

If you can't have the innate abnormal physical abilities like Kaido, Charlotte Lingling or even Whitebeard, then the best way is to exercise unremittingly the day after tomorrow.

For Simon, although a sniper does not necessarily have to have the same physical fitness as those abnormal ones, he must at least ensure that he has a certain ability to protect himself in close combat. What's more, close gun combat also requires a good physique. from.

And he agreed very much with what Nicholas said, that is, a sniper who cannot shoot is an imperfect sniper.

……

Just when the Battle of Cake Island ended and everyone thought that Nicholas and others would rapidly expand their power, what was unexpected was that the opponent did not make any big moves at all. They just occupied the previously mentioned areas that they wanted to seize from Charlotte Lingling and Whitebeard. several islands.

Then there was no other action.

Instead, Kaido and Big Mom started crazy expansion. Especially the Big Mom Pirates, Big Mom personally led many expeditions, and the purpose of the expedition was very clear to obtain the Devil Fruit and quickly strengthen the Big Mom Pirates. .

The Navy has made no other moves except raising the bounty for everyone in the Free Pirates. It seems that it is planning to abandon the New World and let these guys cause trouble in the New World.

However, although there was no big move, all the forces couldn't help but turn their attention to the Free Pirates, and many people couldn't help but speculate on the meaning behind this move.

After all, Nicholas's astonishing record of severely injuring BigMom himself against BigMom Garkaido, as well as the strength shown by Westad and other crew members, make people have to wonder if Nicholas is planning something secretly now.

To be honest, this doesn't seem surprising.

After all, today's Free Pirates have become one of the strongest pirate forces in the world, and they already have the capital to stand on the top stage and compete with other pirate groups for the throne of the Sea Emperor.

Not to mention anything else, in terms of the top combat power among the pirate groups, the Free Pirates are not inferior to the others.

Not only Nicholas, the bigmom who was almost the leader, but the strong man who could fight one against two without falling behind.

There is also Westad, who was able to face Big Mom and Kaido on his own in the battle on Cake Island without any fear, making the whole world look at him.

Although the strength at the middle and lower levels is not enough, this is not a problem for the pirate group with top strong men in the battle. After all, the pirates in the new world are like crucian carp crossing the river. As long as they say it, some of them are willing to join their subordinates. Inunoraku's pirate group.

After all, a pirate group with the protection of a strong man means that except for other top pirate groups, they can completely run sideways in the new world.

……

Just when the entire New World is paying attention to the Free Pirates' actions, public opinion around the world is abuzz discussing the Free Pirates' next move.

On the contrary, the Free Pirates have entered a period of extremely low profile, as if they were dormant.

This surprised many forces who had expected the follow-up actions of the Free Pirates.

After following up for a period of time and discovering that the other party seemed to have no plans to expand, many people gradually lost interest and began to turn their attention to other forces.

After all, this sea is turbulent, and every period of time there will be new people who are in the limelight, accompanied by shocking events.

And those legends that have not been heard of for a long time, no matter how famous they were, will eventually be forgotten as time goes by.

Just like Joyboy hundreds of years ago, only a handful of people today have heard of his name.

……

that's it.

Time flies, spring passes and autumn comes, and six years pass in the blink of an eye.

Before we knew it, time came to June of 1490 in the Haiyuan calendar.

Looking back on the past six years, many major events have occurred in the world, including some that have attracted the attention of countless powerful people.

Among them was the ancient saint Don Quixote Huo Ming among the Celestial Dragons who gave up his identity as a Celestial Dragon and took his family to leave the Holy Land of Mariejoia and settle in Beihai.

And the family of current Navy Admiral Zefa was brutally murdered by pirates who had escaped from Zefa when they went home to visit relatives. In anger, Navy Admiral Zefa directly destroyed the pirates who killed his wife and children, as well as the island where they docked. .

After that, he was directly transferred to the navy's newly established elite training camp to serve as the chief instructor, retaining the rank of general. It was more like protection than punishment. After all, Zefa's identity and the act of destroying the island were embarrassing.

At this point, the Navy has fallen into an unprecedented embarrassing situation, that is, the position of high-end combat general is only one person from the Warring States Period. Although the World Government and even Navy Marshal Sora have repeatedly expressed their wishes to Garp to appoint him as a general, they have all been rejected by him.

The Navy has now officially entered the mode of one marshal and one general.

Marshal Kong:...

General Sengoku:...
