Pirates from island owner to king

Although Wang Hai did not personally use Golden Finger to confirm the strength of the two, he could basically judge from the intelligence that the strength of the two had reached an exceptional level.

Moreover, this is not the upper limit for the two of them.

If the two of them join the Peace Island Kingdom, with the help of his golden finger, there is no small chance that they will reach the exceptional level with their potential.

In short, Wang Hai analyzed the purpose of the world government's genius competition.

On the one hand, it is to divert everyone's attention from the destruction of Wano, especially the massacre of civilians. The World Government does not only care about the views of the Peace Island Kingdom.

There is no way to ignore the opinions of ordinary people.

Today, the world government also needs to stabilize the hearts and minds of the participating countries.

Once a major chaos occurs in a franchised country, it will more or less affect the world government itself.

At this time, of course, the World Government also realized that continuing to ignore the life and death of ordinary people in the franchise countries would only push the franchise countries into the abyss of subversion.

Without the joining countries, the world government itself will be more or less affected.

Especially among the franchised countries, there are some who are not weak. Once they give up completely, they will only push these franchised countries into the camp of the Peace Island Kingdom.

In this way, the Peace Island Kingdom will become stronger.

The world government can also predict what kind of situation that will be.

Even the top leaders of the World Government, with Tianlong as the core, believe that they have the most powerful force and the most means of production in the World Government.

However, it is not easy to create a situation where everyone is the enemy.

So even if you don't care and look down on it in your heart, on the surface, the World Government cannot directly abandon many of the participating countries at this time.

Therefore, in order to stabilize people's hearts, the world government needs to divert the attention of ordinary people.

In fact, to a certain extent, with the launch of the Genius Competition, the World Government has also diverted the attention of many people.

Of course, the purpose of holding the Genius Contest is not just to divert the attention of ordinary people and stabilize people's hearts.

This is also a real way to select talents and a way to win people's hearts.

These talents and strong men selected by taking advantage of profits may not be very loyal and reliable, but they can at least be used by the World Government.

Not only is it a genius competition, Wang Hai and his think tank have analyzed various intelligences and concluded that the World Government is ready to make a desperate move.

Not only facing the threat of the Peace Island Kingdom, but also the so-called crisis of destiny.

Before the critical moment arrives, everything the world government is doing now is preparing for war.

It seems to be winning over people's hearts and stabilizing the joining countries, but in fact, it is ready to abandon these joining countries at any time and go into battle lightly.

Having dominated the sea for 800 years, there is no shortage of smart people at the top of the world government.

However, they have always been in a monopoly position in the past, so as long as it is not a life and death crisis, the top leaders of the world government do not particularly care about many things.

Even though they knew that there were many problems within the World Government, they still had various interests and the belief that they had a critical moment to suppress everything.

Therefore, for many problems within the world government, the top leaders of the world government, headed by the Five Old Stars, mostly turn a blind eye and close one eye.

Until now, the moment of crisis has finally arrived, even if the reaction is a little slow, coupled with the impact brought by the Peace Island Kingdom, it is somewhat unexpected.

However, this still does not make Wulaoxing completely overwhelmed or lose confidence.

If that were really the case, today's world government would have fallen apart long ago.

The truth is there isn't.

As the top leaders of the world government, headed by Wulaoxing, began to pay attention to it, it seemed that they did not do much, but in fact they started to deal with the problem in a big way with strong tactics.

For the franchised countries, a talent competition was concocted to select a group of elite talents and strong men.

This group of talents, in the hands of the top leaders of the world government, was directly exploited.

On the surface, it diverted attention and stabilized people's hearts.

In fact, it was arranged into the navy and a special operations force directly under Wulaoxing was established.

Obviously, they have made plans to completely take back control of the navy.

At the same time, if this group of talents and strong men, after the war between the World Government and the Peace Island Kingdom, the World Government wins, they can become the new kings and nobles of the franchised countries.

Become a tool that has always been controlled and used by them.

Wang Hai will certainly not allow the world government to prepare for war with peace of mind.

The Peace Island Kingdom itself, while actively preparing for war, has increased its support for Dorag's team.

Let more countries that join the world government get rid of the oppression of the world government as soon as possible.

It turns out that establishing credibility is often more difficult than breaking it.

If the world government hadn't relied on the influence of ruling the sea for 800 years, it might not have been able to last even half a year.

Even so, in just half a year, with the strong support of the Peace Island Kingdom, more than fifty participating countries broke away from the World Government and became new countries.

The original kings and nobles had either fled long ago or been overthrown and executed.

Today, under the World Government, there are less than a hundred remaining member countries.

Nearly half of the more than 170 participating countries have been lost.

Among them, the West China Sea and the South China Sea basically have no countries joining the World Government.

Even the remaining participating countries are all worried and want to break away from the corrupt rule of the World Government as soon as possible and join the camp of the Peace Island Kingdom.

On the Peace Island side, this is certainly not done simply to cause trouble for the World Government.

It is also to rescue the civilians of these participating countries from the hands of the World Government and prevent them from being used by the World Government to threaten themselves when war breaks out.

Not only that, when I saw the World Government deploying special operations forces in the navy, it actively contacted the doves in the navy.

The target is not only high-end combat forces such as Garp, but also a large number of middle-level and basic managers, as well as some elite naval talents.

Although in the original plot, there are no new people appearing in the navy.

At least, there is no one among his peers who can compete with the protagonist group.

However, this does not mean that there are really no geniuses in the navy.

As a complete talent screening agency, the Navy recruits a large number of talents from the participating countries of the World Government every year.

Among them, there is never a shortage of true geniuses.

However, it is different from Luffy’s generation of Pirate Supernova.

The navy's training system is more of a steady and steady approach.

It can be seen from the navy's past, even Garp Warring States, and Ao Pheasant Kizaru and others.

Basically, they start to show their prominence when they are over 20 years old, and they start to reach the peak of their strength when they are in their 40s and [-]s.

Basically, people who really grow to their peak are around 50 years old.

Logically speaking, a navy with a more complete and sound training and upgrade system should be more likely to grow to the top.

But the fact is quite the opposite.

in fact.

This is not difficult to understand.

It's not that Garp Sengoku, or Kizaru Aokiji, and others are any less talented than the Pirate Emperor.

In fact, except for some talents, such as Kaido and Big Mom, or Wang Lufei’s protagonist halo.

In fact, aside from these, everyone is pretty much the same.

To be able to become a top powerhouse, one's talents in all aspects are basically top-notch.

In the end, the reason why the two parties grow at different speeds is actually because of the different growth environments.

To put it simply, pirates are like wild beasts and navy are like domesticated hounds.

Although this statement is not enough to fully explain it, it can still tell a few things.

As beasts, pirates' living environment is more difficult, the pressure is greater, and the probability of elimination is also the same.

Pirates not only have to face the pursuit of the navy, but also the pursuit of bounty hunters, and face the rejection of most ordinary people.

The former results in most pirates having no fixed abode and can only wander on the sea.

The latter makes it more difficult for pirates to obtain supplies, thereby increasing the difficulty of survival.

For this reason, some pirates initially went out to sea and became pirates, perhaps due to forced reasons, but slowly, as time went by, they were assimilated into real pirates.

In addition, because of wandering on the sea, pirates need to face crises on the sea.

This crisis comes from the lack of supplies, attacks by sea kings and sea beasts, dangerous natural climate, various diseases and natural disasters, etc.

It can be said that without sufficient strength and physique, going to sea is simply courting death.

For these reasons alone, most pirates have been eliminated.

The remaining pirates who can survive and explore the Grand Line are naturally the elite among pirates.

However, this does not mean that they will be safe.

If we say at the beginning, they only faced the pursuit of the navy locally, that is, from all over the world.

Then after entering the Grand Line, they began to face the pursuit of naval elites.

Basically, they all start at the school officer level, and then there are general officers.

Before entering the new world, not only the navy, but also the Shichibukai were woven into a large web.

Basically only a few people want to get through, relying on luck, more on luck plus strength.

Basically, only the pirate group that becomes a supernova every year can truly qualify to enter the new world.

After arriving in the new world, the challenges we faced were still many and difficult.

Not only has the relatively stable Pirate Emperor pattern been formed, there are still a lot of pirates fighting for the territory left by the Pirate Emperor.

The natural living environment in the new world is even more difficult. Simply sailing on the sea by boat is unreliable. Unless you are a top powerhouse, in most cases, you can fight against various natural disasters with human power.

Or, have overlord luck and top-notch navigation skills.

Otherwise, you need to find a stable location first.

As a result, pirates still need to face brutal fighting among their peers.

Even if you obtain a station and want to hold it, you will still have to face challenges from fellow pirates of the same generation, as well as a steady stream of new pirates.

In short, pirates do seem to be free, not bound by any rules, and sail freely on the sea.

However, the real pirate life is obviously not as leisurely as the protagonist team.

The protagonist team is more like an adventure group, or even a travel group.

Real pirates are either fighting or on their way to fight almost every day.

To be able to fight in such an environment is basically to reach the top early.

Because if you want to grow steadily, there are no such conditions.

In other words, as long as you grow slowly, you will basically become a stepping stone for others.

Therefore, as long as you investigate, you can find that the strongest among the pirates, with the same level of strength, basically reach their peak at least ten years earlier than the navy.

However, this is not entirely without risks.

Too many fights, unless one is extremely talented and has an inhuman physique, most of them will leave hidden wounds. At their peak, they cannot compare with the navy.

Just like Whitebeard, although his physique is at monster level, it is still inferior to Kaido's mother.

Therefore, it is natural that he was covered in injuries and was not as good as Sengoku Garp and others at his peak.

This is more than just a pot of shaking fruit abilities.

In fact, although Auntie is extremely talented, she also has some problems in this regard.

Auntie only has talent, but she doesn't put much energy into improving her own strength.

When you reach the age where you can have children, you are either giving birth to a child or on the way to have a child.

It can be said that most of life is spent carrying children.

This also led to the fact that even though she was extremely talented physically, her peak period was relatively short.

Even the peak strength has not reached the top level, and there is a certain gap compared to Kaido.

Looking back and looking at the Navy, it is not difficult to understand why the Navy generally enters its peak age at an older age.

In fact, this is normal for the Navy.

Compared to pirates, the navy is undoubtedly much less stressed.

Especially for talented geniuses, they can be selected to enter the headquarters of Marineford to receive education and training at a young age.

After completing their studies, there will be seniors who will take them out to sea for internship. Most of the pirates they deal with will not be beyond their own capabilities.

This is not something that pirates can do. Pirates often face the possibility of facing someone stronger than themselves.

So in order to survive, they did everything they could to maximize their potential.

As for the new recruits in the Navy, after they have practiced for a period of time under the leadership of their seniors and have enough experience, they will be assigned to take charge of their own affairs and truly graduate.

Even so, they followed a step-by-step approach to deal with pirates within their capabilities, improving step by step.

In addition, on the sea, the equipment owned by the navy is often steel battleships equipped with guns.

Whether it is dealing with pirates, sea beasts, or sea kings, or fighting against the natural climate environment, the ability to withstand risks is also better.

In addition, supplies and materials are easier to obtain and often better used than pirates.

Under such circumstances, the Navy's probability of elimination is relatively small and its growth is more stable, but the speed is inevitable and slower.

In short, there is no shortage of geniuses in the navy.

Moreover, compared to the geniuses selected in the genius competition, geniuses in the navy often choose to join the navy because they have a certain sense of justice.

They have not yet been fully integrated into the navy and world government systems. If they can be poached, they will undoubtedly be a good force.

The most important thing is that Wang Hai does not want to watch such a group of talents remain in the hands of the World Government and be used as cannon fodder.
