All kidding aside, Rocks really asked me to be the captain!

"Guys! Today! Our Rocks Pirates! We have gathered 20 powerful pirates!"

"What is our goal? Yes! To pull those guys who call themselves gods off the stage!"

"And, after today, those of us who survive will take their place and become true gods!"

"I know that a large number of you were not pirates before! You are civilians from the countries protected by the Rocks Pirates!"

"Because of the high Sky Sutra pressure from the World Government, your country can't support such output, so the whole country has joined our Rocks Pirates!"

"But that was all in the past! From now on, you will be exempted from having the same identity rights!"

"The Rocks Pirates don't need you to toil for 12 hours only to get Bailey, which is barely enough to feed and clothe yourself! We must take back the rights, gold, and status that belong to us!"

"You've also noticed, right? In recent years, commodity prices around the world have skyrocketed... It's even reached a point where ordinary people can't even get enough to eat!"

"Do you know how much Bailey's a bottle of rum costs in those countries that are controlled by the World Government using Heavenly Gold?"

"40 Baileys! If converted into coins, this amount of money wouldn't even fit in a carriage!"

"Who is the cause of all this?"

Standing on a tall building, Rocks shouted loudly, exuding a domineering aura.

"It's a Celestial Dragon!!!"

"They destroyed our country's economy! That's why we've become such rotten people! If it weren't for Captain Rocks, we might still be begging those nobles for our pitiful salaries and food that's barely enough to keep us warm!!"

"Give the order, Captain Rocks!"

"Let's pull those damned Tianlong people down together and let them experience what it's like to work 14 hours a day and still not have enough to eat!"

“We also want to eat reasonably priced bread and drink cheap rum!!!”

"Kill all the Celestial Dragons!!!"

As Rocks shouted loudly, the blood of more than 20 pirates at the scene instantly boiled, and they waved their swords with excitement on their faces, wanting to fight hard!

The Golden Lion and others next to them also showed expectant smiles.

To them, Rocks is a crazy guy!

But as a pirate, isn't this the kind of crazy life you want?

If life is just a dull life of working day and night and then handing over your meager salary to the Celestial Dragons, then why would you want to become a pirate?

Moreover, this time, their target is directly the World Government!

If successful, their identities as pirates will be directly changed!

This incredible wealth makes the already ambitious pirates look forward to it to the extreme!

Among all the people present, it can be said that only Luohou and Whitebeard were completely indifferent.

Luohu only wants to kill the celestial dragons, all other trivial matters are not important at all.

As for Whitebeard, he has long wanted to leave the Rocks Pirates and form a team with family as the bond.

The reason why he participated in this final war was just because he wanted to repay Captain Rocks.

After all, although Rocks usually does things unkindly, the Rocks Pirates still protect his hometown Sphinx Island.

It was reasonable for Whitebeard to help this guy finish the last war before leaving the Rocks Pirates.

After all, Whitebeard also thought that he was just an ordinary pirate.

However, the world of pirates also requires justice and benevolence!

Do things with a clear conscience.

But we can’t be like those navy men who say one thing and do another, even though they know exactly where the source of the world’s evil comes from.

But they still choose to turn a blind eye and act as a front for others to protect evil!

If you say that the world ruled by Rocks is more chaotic than the world ruled by the Celestial Dragons, then it depends on one's own opinion.

After all, although Rocks is a pervert~

But they have not yet reached the point of being so cruel that they would massacre a country by force every once in a while to prove the authority of the gods!

Aren't the countries protected by the Rocks Pirates also doing well, with civilians even having an easier life than those who join the World Government?

"Alright! Guys! Let's go! Our destination is Marijoa, the sacred place of the Celestial Dragons!!!"

After delivering his rum price speech on the Sword of Gibeck.

Rocks chose the moment when popularity reached its peak and issued the order to set sail!

PS: The author's book currently has a maximum readership of only 20. The novel has entered a silent period and is expected to be out for a long time. The author's personal writing skills are not good enough, so you can only make do with it~

In addition, the author has also seen many readers discussing whether the emperor-level combat power is too exaggerated.

Here the author believes that in the Rocks era, the level of the emperors was equal. There may be a slight difference in combat power, but the absolute gap is not big~

After the three great admirals of the Great Pirate Era: Akainu, Kizaru, and Aokiji, the combat power of the admirals is weaker than that of the Four Emperors.

It can be clearly seen that in the latest plot, after Luffy transformed into the Nika form, he can already beat the reduced form into a sauce-flavored pancake with one hand and pinch the faces of the Five Elders with the other hand with ease.

Even with such combat power, Kaido, the old Four Emperors and the strongest creature in the world, was still able to beat Luffy back to his original form with one stick.

Even if they hadn't been stuck in a round-robin battle and had to waste a lot of energy to create smoke and clouds to keep an island afloat~

Kaido can easily defeat Luffy, the new Four Emperors~

Moreover, when the veteran fighter Garp fought against the former Navy Admiral Aokiji on Beehive Island, he threw a total of three punches. The first two times he directly pinned Aokiji into the pit on the spot.

The last time it was because of Xi Liu's stealth sneak attack that the fight ended in a draw, and they hit each other in the face!

From this point it is enough to see that in the Rocks era, the general emperor was an existence of the same level!

And during the Battle of Marineford, if Garp really went up to fight Akainu, Akainu would definitely die!

After all, when Aokiji was competing with Akainu for the position of Navy Admiral, it took ten days and ten nights to decide the winner!

However, a veteran navy like Garp suppressed Aokiji with just three punches and two kicks, making him unable to get up. If it weren't for Kobe, Garp would definitely be able to single-handedly conquer Honeycomb Island!

In summary, the authors believe that:

The generals and emperors in Rocks' era were of the same level!

In the Great Pirate Era, the emperors were much higher than the admirals. An admiral could not possibly defeat the four emperors. Of course, the four emperors would definitely not be able to defeat two admirals.

As for the two substitute admirals Fujitora and Green Bull, they are even weaker.

Even Green Bull could be frightened by Red Hair's domineering aura and become inarticulate. This kind of expressiveness would be quite explosive in any era!

The setting is probably like this~

There are a lot of water characters~
