Pirates: Who is the real sun god?

"No, there is a place in the New World you can enter, it just depends on whether you can negotiate it."

After thinking for a while, Barrett spoke.

"You mean, the Central Emperor Territory."

Dragon was very clear about the world situation. As soon as Barrett said that, he realized that the Central Emperor Domain was different from the other four domains. The Central Emperor Domain had been divided before, so many large islands were vacant. The Whitebeard Pirates only occupied the most central area, and the other islands were completely left alone.

The most important thing is that if they place their base in the Central Region, it will be difficult for the Navy and the World Government to find it, and they can develop with peace of mind.

Thinking of this, Long suddenly became excited and quickly asked, "Donghuang, you are familiar with Whitebeard, can you be an intermediary?"

"No, if I show up, not only will I not be able to help you, but it will also cause unnecessary misunderstandings." Barrett shook his head. If he showed up, he didn't know what Whitebeard would think, but his sons would definitely think that he wanted to occupy the Eastern Region.

When Long heard this, he realized that Barrett was not an ordinary person, but one of the emperors of the new world. If he went to negotiate, he might not be able to get anything done, and there would be a war. Thinking of this, he became distressed again.

Barrett said, "Long, you think too much. As far as I know, Whitebeard doesn't care much about the Central Region, so there are many pirate groups entrenched in the Central Region. You go and negotiate. As long as you have enough bargaining chips, there shouldn't be any problem."

"Please give me some advice, Emperor Donghuang." Long's eyes lit up and he asked respectfully.

Barrett said, "Although the Central Region has been split up, the Central Region Continent still exists, so you don't have to think about it. In addition, there are three super-large islands in the Central Region, each of which has a large kingdom and is close to the Central Region Continent. It is the main source of income for Whitebeard and others, so you don't have to think about it either."

"Then, the only ones you can consider next are eight large islands. Two of the eight islands are close to the Central Continent, two are close to Kaido's territory, and one is close to the navy. You can't choose any of these. They are either war sites or Whitebeard's detention sites. The remaining three are close to Lingxiao, Big Mom, and Golden Lion."

"You can choose from these three, but there are pros and cons, and you need to consider it yourself."

"Three seats? Can you help me analyze it?" Long asked.

"Can--"

Barrett nodded and said, "Each of the three islands has its own advantages. The island close to Lingxiao is safe, and your development will not be disturbed, but the bottleneck is huge, because the people of Lingxiao are stable, and it is difficult for you to strengthen."

"The island near Big Mom is also peaceful. You just need to appease Big Mom and you can develop with peace of mind. However, that island belongs to the hinterland of the New World. When you develop to a certain level, you will inevitably fight with one of the two emperors. No matter who you choose at that time, your chances of winning are slim."

"The last one is an island near the Golden Lion Sea. The island is called Silverwood Island. Silverwood is one of the main materials for shipbuilding, so it is very rich in resources."

“In fact, it’s better to say that Silverwood Island is a no-man’s land than to say that it’s Whitebeard’s territory. Silverwood Island is far away from the Central Continent, but it’s close to the Golden Lion Sea, so it’s nothing.

But it just so happens that silverwood is abundant there, so the Golden Lions would go and plunder it. Whitebeard is far away and it is difficult to control them, so every time after the Golden Lions plunder, Whitebeard would go and fight when he sails out, and in the end nothing would happen. "

"However, after so many years of plundering, the silverwood on Silverwood Island has become scarce, and the Golden Lion has not been there for a long time, so it has become a chaotic place for some ordinary pirates."

"If you choose that place, you will need to start over. However, there are also advantages to choosing that place. You can easily attract civilians from the Golden Lion Sea from there to increase the population base. And as long as you control it well, you can replant silverwood and use it as a commercial support. Most importantly, it is close to the Golden Lion, so you can use it as a springboard to slowly annex the Lion Territory."

"However, the disadvantages are also obvious. Once you develop to a certain level, you will need to face the Golden Lion."

After listening to Barrett's analysis, Long fell into deep thought.

Barrett didn't bother them and just waited quietly. The reason why he recommended this was that things had been too peaceful in recent years and they had to make some chaos in the new world so that they could fish in troubled waters.

Besides, allowing dragons to develop is much more reliable than allowing others to develop. Dragons and they are natural allies.

"Donghuang, I have decided. I will choose Silverwood Island."

After a long time, Long's eyes gradually became firm. He was not a fool, and naturally knew that Barrett must have a calculation for making such a recommendation. However, after careful consideration, he found that no matter what Barrett's calculation was, the method and place Barrett said were the best ways.

"It's your choice, but if you can gain a foothold, we can become business partners." Barrett grinned.

"That's exactly what I meant." Long said with a smile.

"Okay, we've talked about it, and you've got what you wanted. It's time to fulfill your promise!" Barrett said.

Long's face froze, and he reluctantly took out a brown melon-shaped devil fruit from his cloak with a dark face and handed it to Barrett. "Donghuang, this is the fusion fruit. I'll give it to you first. I'll bring the other two to you when I get back."

"it is good--"

Barrett took the fusion fruit and put it away quickly, feeling happy. Compared with the other two devil fruits, the value of this fusion fruit was much greater.

Watching Barrett collect the fruit, a trace of pain flashed across Long's eyes, but he quickly recovered. After today's conversation, he finally found his direction and completely dispelled the fog in front of him. Compared to the devil fruit, he got more.

After a short pause, Long said, "Dong Huang, I'll leave first. I've heard so much today, and I have to sort it out, otherwise I'm afraid there will be mistakes or omissions."

As he spoke, Long handed a Den Den Mushi to Barrett. "Also, I hope I can ask you for advice in the future. I hope you won't keep it to yourself."

"No problem--" Barrett was delighted to obtain the Fusion Fruit and decisively took the Den Den Mushi.

"Thank you, goodbye Donghuang, I will tell the people below that you will be our revolutionary army in the future."

Long waved his hand and left in big strides.

The Revolutionary Army

The corners of Barrett's mouth twitched. He couldn't believe that he became a revolutionary just because he promoted the red color.

But then he thought, it would be nice to be the spiritual leader of a large team, so he put away his devil fruit and went to look for Jhin and the others with a smile.

After a while, Barrett found Jin and discovered that Jin was teaching Kuina and a little green algae-haired kid kendo, while Olga was sitting there stupidly in a daze.

Barrett didn't bother her and walked over to sit next to Olga with a smile.

Olga seemed to sense something. She turned around and saw Barrett. She was almost scared to death. She trembled all over and wanted to run away, but bumped into a pillar.

"It seems that I overexerted myself last time and have lost my memory, and there are still such serious sequelae." Barrett muttered, straightened Olga and leaned her against the pillar.

Olga's sudden action disturbed Kuina and the other two. Jin looked at him with a smile, while Kuina and the little boy with the green algae head looked suspicious and alert.

"Don't look at me like that. She is just timid and got scared." Barrett's face turned black and he glared at a few people unhappily.

"I know, I know." Jhin responded with a smile.

It would have been fine if she hadn't said anything. Once she said that, Kuina and the other two became more alert. They all held their wooden swords and stared at Barrett without blinking. Especially the green algae-headed kid, who had extremely weird eyes and stood in front of Kuina. All she heard from his observation Haki was the word "pervert".

The little kid with green algae hair was none other than Zoro in the original work. Barrett naturally knew him and recognized him at the first sight. After all, that green head shape was really unforgettable.

However, now he no longer had the desire to see Zoro as before, but instead had an urge to pick him up and beat him up.

"Jin, you are so free. Why do you want to teach these two little brats?" Barrett's face turned black. He couldn't bully Kuina and Zoro. He was afraid of being criticized, so he could only direct his spearhead at Jhin who was watching the show.

"..."

Jin was speechless. He didn't expect that he would get into trouble just by watching a show.

"Bastard, who is the little brat, you pervert, I want to duel with you." Jhin didn't say anything, but Zoro's bad temper couldn't stand it. He jumped directly in front of Jhin, gripped the wooden sword, and glared at Barrett.

"You're quite brave, kid, but can you do this?"

Barrett curled the corners of his mouth and stretched out his hand to hook his fingers. He didn't expect that Zoro was so reckless when he was a child.

"It's over."

As soon as Jin saw Barrett's look, he knew that Barrett's old problem had come back again. He quickly stopped Kuina who was about to go forward and pulled her aside to watch the show.

ah--

Zoro had a bad temper and rushed forward with a wooden sword.

"Jin, I'll take him out for some fun, don't worry."

Barrett was just about to tease Zoro, and when Zoro rushed over, he picked up Zoro and flew into the sky.

"Zoron—"

After being stunned for two seconds, Kuina cried and shouted to the sky.

"Kuina, that kid is fine. The boss knows his limits."

Jin rubbed his temple and comforted Kuina with a helpless look on his face.
