From Pirates to Sweeping the Worlds

Chapter 401: Floating Fruit x Expansion of Territory

After being happy, Karp asked, "Well... did you give it to me?"

"Ah... I gave it to you!" Zhan Guo sighed helplessly, "If I don't give it to you, it will not only affect the reputation of the navy, but also destroy the bounty system."

Then, he changed the subject and said, "But I didn't give you all!"

"On the grounds that the body was incomplete and difficult to identify, we only gave half, which is 15 billion Baileys!"

"What a greedy little guy!" He couldn't help but sigh and was extremely speechless about Xia Jieren's behavior.

If the Kingdom of the Netherlands was poor, that would be understandable.

But the Kingdom of the Netherlands is extremely rich, and Xia Jieren is still taking advantage of the navy to take advantage of it, which is too much.

Garp continued to laugh heartlessly.

However, Zhan Guo felt a vague sense of uneasiness in his heart, and this feeling decreased instead of increased as time went by.

For some reason, he had a strong premonition that in the future, the [Kingdom of the Netherlands] would create huge waves.

The Golden Lion was defeated by the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and the news swept the world like a hurricane.

Countless people who knew the name of Golden Lion Shiki were shocked.

【New World】.

Moby Dick.

"Is this the end of your ambition, Golden Lion?" Whitebeard murmured in a low voice, holding a wine barrel in his left hand and a newspaper in his right hand.

Around them, members of the Whitebeard Pirates were also discussing the news enthusiastically.

However, judging from the smiles on their faces, there was no sense of grief at all.

【Demon Island】

"What a shame, Golden Lion!" Kaido opened his drunken eyes, threw the newspaper to the ground and continued drinking.

【Cake Island】

"Well, well, well, Golden Lion is already old, but he was defeated by a little brat like this!" Charlotte Lingling didn't care about the news of Golden Lion's death.

"The Kingdom of the Netherlands? A country in the West Sea? How could it defeat the Golden Lion?"

"Some despicable means must have been used."

"Right! I think so too!"

"So what! The winner is the king, the loser is the bandit!"

"From now on, the Kingdom of the Netherlands will be famous all over the world!"

"..."

The people in Xihai are all proud that there is such a country in Xihai.

But the mood towards other forces in the West Sea, such as the Kingdom of Flowers, the five major mafia families, the West Empire, etc., is not so good.

Although they don't say it, in the hearts of many forces, their vigilance against the Kingdom of the Netherlands has been raised to the highest level.

Everything has two sides, there are disadvantages, and of course there are advantages.

For example, now that the [Netherlands Kingdom] has become famous, the secret actions of various forces have tacitly decreased a lot.

As the saying goes, the king of hell is easy to meet, but the devil is difficult to deal with.

Dealing with minor matters such as pirate attacks also requires the [Kingdom of the Netherlands] to expend a lot of energy.

An unknown island.

Indigo, a trusted subordinate of the Golden Lion Shiki, and a gorilla dressed as a baby stayed here briefly.

Isn’t it ironic!

After the death of Golden Lion, the Flying Pirates fell apart.

Now, he and a gorilla are the only ones willing to avenge the golden lion.

For pirates, the actions of the other crew members of the Flying Pirates were undoubtedly wise.

It’s okay to share wealth, but you need to think twice about sharing adversity.

"Damn it, damn the [Kingdom of the Netherlands]!" Indigo stared at the newspaper with hatred and said hatefully.

"No! I can't cause any harm to the Kingdom of the Netherlands by myself. I need to find a more powerful backer to continue my research!"

"This way, one day..."

Thinking of this, he called out, "Gorilla, let's go!"

Then, the man and the gorilla boarded a simple small boat and sailed towards the blue sea again.

On the other hand, Xia Jieren refused all interviews.

At this point, he couldn't help but sigh: "It's true that when you are famous, you are prone to gossip!"

Today, his behavior is seriously inconsistent with his desire to keep a low profile.

With this in mind, Xia Jieren decided that after returning to the Kingdom of the Netherlands, he would stay at home for a while, waiting until the world had forgotten about him before going out to travel.

After the Dragon God returned to the Kingdom of the Netherlands, Xia Jieren lived in seclusion and did not care about worldly affairs.

The popularity of the Golden Lion and the Kingdom of the Netherlands lasted for less than a month, and few people mentioned it anymore.

While Xia Jieren was happy, he also felt a little disappointed: "People are so forgetful!"

Emotions come and go quickly.

He was quickly distracted.

Because, the massive work of expanding territory began.

After careful selection, Xia Jieren chose a bug man named "Ariely" and ate the superhuman Float-Float Fruit.

Ariely did not disappoint everyone's expectations. After a period of adaptation and training, he can now skillfully use the power of the Float-Float Fruit.

Even moving an island would not be a problem at all.

So, Xia Jieren began to search for uninhabited islands in the sea.

A total of 1203 uninhabited islands have been discovered in the West Sea, but most of these islands are deserted and small in area, with the largest island being less than 100 square kilometers.

It makes sense. If there were a large island, it would have been occupied long ago, so there would be no chance for him to get it.

After finding a suitable target, Ariely set out.

With the blessing of Xia Jieren's "Divine Seal", one island after another was transported back to the [Kingdom of the Netherlands] and placed in designated areas.

Netherlands, north coast.

"It would be nice if there were Tu Tu Fruit or Shi Shi Fruit." Looking at the rugged ground, Xia Jieren was inspired.

The worker bees are also very efficient in leveling the land, but it is still a little bit inferior to the devil fruit ability.

The Tu Tu fruit has not appeared for hundreds of years.

The Stone-Stone Fruit has been eaten by Saka, a senior official of Doflamingo's family.

Therefore, Xia Jieren could only sigh in despair.

Afterwards, Xia Jieren hatched another 100,000 worker bees and joined the army to level the land.

Tear down mountains, fill in gullies, plant trees, build roads, immigrate people, build towns...

Everything is developing in an orderly manner and in a good direction.

A large number of islands are shipped back every day.

This situation lasted for about half a month.

Today, the Netherlands has more than doubled in size, totaling square kilometers.

With so much additional land, the manpower and material resources needed to develop it are not a small amount.

But for the Kingdom of the Netherlands, this is a piece of cake and just takes a little time.

Next, the [Kingdom of the Netherlands] needed to digest the newly added land, so Xia Jieren called Ariely back.

After this period of training, Ariely has become more adept at using the Float-Float Fruit.

Although it was called back, the search for the unowned island did not stop there.

Xia Jieren's forces are all paying attention to the ownerless islands in the five sea areas.

As long as the Kingdom of the Netherlands needs it, we can move it immediately.

[Kingdom of the Netherlands] Such a big move certainly cannot be hidden from the eyes of the world.
