Kizaru is dead.
The death of a naval admiral must be an event that shakes the entire sea.
From decades ago to today, the Admiral has always been known as the World Government's highest combat power, standing at the top of the sea. Even Zefa, the weakest among them, has not died yet and is still alive on the sea.
In comparison, pirates continue to have people die, like Roger, the Pirate King, and Rocks, who almost ruled the entire Grand Line earlier.
The reason is not that pirates are weaker than navies.
It's because the navy has become more institutionalized. Pirates often find it difficult to die well. There are always times of old age and aging, and there are always times when they are weak and have no one to protect them. However, every general in the navy is at his peak during his tenure. .
From the age of forty to fifty, his physical fitness has reached its peak and will not decline. He has experienced countless bloody battles, has rich combat experience, and has reached the peak in almost all aspects.
In the future, when you are over fifty or sixty years old and your condition begins to decline, you will often retire and no longer serve as a general.
So it is too difficult to kill a general...
Generals serve at the peak of their lives, and they often do not deliberately take risks. Even for a major event such as the siege of the Four Emperors, they must come up with the safest plan and send more than twice the opponent's force to carry out the siege. .
can now.
Kizaru is dead, an admiral in his prime.
At this time, the government even wanted to erase Kizaru's name from the sea, but they couldn't do it, because a dignified admiral couldn't make the information about him disappear completely anyway.
Since the Summit War, the power of the world government and navy has begun to decline. This has also led to an increase in the number of pirates and an increase in various vicious incidents around the world.
To the entire world, Ron and Albarez had done a bad thing. However, during this process, Albarez relied on a unique commissioning mechanism to maintain the stability and stability of the sea.
When one falls and one falls, and they cancel each other out, the situation in the world is not actually getting worse.
The only thing that has changed is that the power of the government and navy has declined, while Albarez has become famous around the world, so much so that it has spread to every corner.
this time.
The effects of Kizaru's death will be the same.
The prestige of the government and navy will once again decline, while the Albarez Guild will further rise. The number of crimes in the sea areas ruled by Albarez has dropped sharply.
…
New world.
Somewhere on the sea.
"Qi hahahaha... I killed a general."
Blackbeard held a newspaper, opened his mouth, revealing his chipped front teeth, and said: "You guys, you have to work harder. Get the powerful Devil Fruit and create an invincible force. We and those Sooner or later there will be a war!"
There is only one king in this world!
Blackbeard knew that Ron's purpose was probably not the Pirate King, but no matter what Ron's purpose was, Albarez was obviously climbing to the top.
There is only one in the highest position, and there is no room for two people.
In other words, the world will definitely usher in a final battle to determine the true king of the sea, and before that, he must do everything possible to improve his power.
"There shouldn't be a new world coming in a short period of time."
Lafitte was also reading the newspaper. He held a mahogany cane, smiled and said: "They have seized part of Tezolo's funds. They should continue to compete with the government for Tezolo in the next period of time." His legacy...should we also get involved?"
"No, let them grab it."
Blackbeard grinned and said: "When you reach the top of the sea, there will be as much treasure as you want. What we lack now is not that kind of thing!"
"How about... next, are you going to find Whitebeard?"
Ame no Shiru was sitting not far away with a cigar in his mouth, wiping his sword. At this moment, he turned his head, looked at Blackbeard, and spoke in the smoke.
Blackbeard narrowed his eyes and smiled, something light reflecting in his deep pupils.
…
New world.
Aboard Moby Dick.
Whitebeard was sitting in the middle of the deck, holding a huge wine jar in his hand, putting it to his mouth and taking a sip while dropping the newspaper in his other hand.
"That brat Kizaru was killed."
When Whitebeard, Roger, and the Golden Lion fought against each other in the sea, Kizaru, Aokiji, and others were only lieutenant generals and Garp's followers.
"That guy... really made a comeback."
Marco held the newspaper and said: "It's a good thing that he reappeared. It can draw enough energy from the government. In short, we still have a cooperative relationship."
If Ron and Albarez want to conquer the world, there will definitely be a war between them, but in any case, they are currently in a cooperative relationship.
At least until Kaido, Red Hair and the other six emperors are dealt with, Ron will probably not conflict with them, so the cooperative relationship can continue to be maintained, which is beneficial to both parties.
Whitebeard's hidden injury was cured by Mansheli, but due to age, Whitebeard's condition was still slowly declining. Marco knew very well that Whitebeard would fall from the strongest position in the world sooner or later, but by that time, Ai Si should have grown up too.
He turned to look at Ace who was not far away.
Nowadays, Ace has experienced the growth of the War on the Top, and has gone through several fierce battles with the Blackbeard Pirates. His current strength has vaguely surpassed him, and is no worse than the Tea Dolphin and Peach Rabbit during the War on the Top. , even if you really compete with a general, you may not lose in the end.
"That guy..."
Ace was also reading the newspaper, his expression changing.
He and Ron had encountered each other more than once. The first time was when he was captured by Ron, who was still a naval admiral, and the second time was when he was rescued by Ron during the War on the Summit.
He didn't know how to evaluate it, but in short, he was not an enemy now.
"Dad, do you want to take advantage of this moment to settle the score with Blackbeard?"
Ace put down the newspaper and looked at Whitebeard.
The experience of the war made him grow a lot. Although he was still passionate, he was no longer so reckless. He realized some of his shortcomings and mistakes.
"good."
Somewhat beyond Ace's expectation, Whitebeard simply agreed.
Marco and others were also slightly surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, they felt it was reasonable.
Now that a general in the Navy has died, and it is the time of handover between the old and new marshals, the navy must be in chaos, and there will definitely be no room for participation in the war in the new world.
Kaido, on the other hand, has been in subtle conflict with the Red-haired Pirates recently, and most likely cannot participate. BIGMOM has not yet returned to the Grand Line... Now is indeed a time to settle accounts with the Blackbeard Pirates.
…
After a few days.
The Whitebeard Pirates were dispatched and met the Blackbeard Pirates somewhere in the sea. They had a fierce battle. The battle shocked the entire new world and attracted the attention of countless forces, who were frightened.
The final result was that Blackbeard escaped from the battlefield, and his villain king and Bagis died in battle... At the same time, the Whitebeard Pirates also lost a captain of the 12th Division.
The result of this battle shocked the world.
The Blackbeard Pirates, like Albarez, are recognized as one of the three weak emperors, but this time the head-on battle with the Whitebeard Pirates was almost evenly divided!
Although it ended with Blackbeard escaping, there is no doubt that the current Blackbeard Pirates are truly qualified to fight the top forces.
Whitebeard, Blackbeard, Kaido, Red-haired Shanks and Ron.
The structure of the six emperors, three strong and three weak, lasted for less than a year before it was broken. Now only the BIGMOM pirate group is still hanging on, and the rest have gradually shown a situation where it is difficult to distinguish between strong and weak. .
In this sea, it is impossible to predict who the final winner will be.
When Whitebeard was looking for trouble with Blackbeard, the Albarez Guild was indeed competing with the World Government for the property and resources left by Tezolo.
It is obviously impossible to snatch the Gulan City where Ron is sitting. The government cannot send enough troops to deal with Ron, so the only things that can be fought for are various entertainment industry districts scattered around the world, which will be sealed by the government. and collection.
When Nami returned to Alabasta in the giant ship of Gulan City, nearly a month had passed.
so far.
Tezzolo's inheritance was almost completely divided, and Ron got most of it, accounting for about nine percent of the world's Baileys.
The World Government got a small part of it, taking away about 6% of the world's Baileys. Of the remaining 5%, 3% was divided up and stolen by numerous underground forces, and the other 2% It was completely lost due to confusion.
Nine percent seems to be less than half of Tezzolo's total assets, but in fact this number is so huge that it is almost difficult to calculate, far exceeding what Doflamingo's Don Quixote family left behind. Those properties are not on the same level at all.
This 9% of funds can be said to have turned Albarez's money into a number. Even if he buys all the sea tower stones in the world, it will be enough.
…
Albarez Guild Headquarters.
In the room on the top floor, Ron was sitting on the sofa, discussing with Nami Robin and others about the establishment of Albarez Bank.
Owning nine percent of the world's wealth, although this fund is huge, if it is left untouched, it will gradually disappear with the passage of time, ten or twenty years. After all, these are pure properties, and Not like Tezzolo who controls the entertainment industry around the world.
The entertainment industry is definitely not suitable for it. On the one hand, it requires the ability to take both black and white, and on the other hand, it also requires special talents to manage it. Karina may be able to do a little bit, but it is impossible to do what Tezzolo did. kind of degree.
When Nami no longer knew how to use so much money, Ron briefly mentioned the concept of banks.
With Albarez's current status, it is not a big problem to establish a bank in the sea area he rules. As for opening a bank to the entire Grand Route or the whole world, that is not possible. However, the current situation is that in his own There is no problem with circulation within the ruled sea area.
For example, the BIGMOM Pirates once established a unique system of their own in the seas of all nations, exchanging lifespan for residence rights and so on.
Situations that completely break the original environment and system can occur and maintain a certain degree of stability, let alone things like banks.
"This is the specific situation... "
Ron wrote something on the paper with a pen, and finally put down the pen and said: "Let's try it out in this format. It will also be beneficial to the development of Alabasta."
"Huh..."
"This kind of plan is also conceivable. Ron, you are really suitable for governing the country."
Weiwei sat opposite Ron. When she heard this, she couldn't help but exhale. Her eyes flickered at Ron, showing a hint of admiration.
At first, she was shocked when she heard Ron's plan, but if she thought about it carefully, with Albarez's name and the credibility of the Alabasta government, it was not difficult to maintain such an organization. It is easy to gain the trust of the people.
And once funds are allowed to flow, the effect will be earth-shaking changes.
"Governing the country... let's forget it."
Ron smiled, shook his head and said, "I don't have that much time and energy to manage a country's affairs, and I never planned to rule the world or anything."
"Okay, that's it for now. You can discuss the rest. I'm going to study new magic."
