I Have Been Sleeping Among Pirates For A Hundred Years

A small island in the sea of ​​Gaia.

"Captain Teach, do you really want to do such a dangerous thing?"

Fan Oka asked unhurriedly, carrying a sniper rifle.

"What does it matter? If you are lucky enough, you can meet that man on the island in front! Luck, maybe it will be on our side, thief hahaha!"

Marshall.D. Teach looked at the newspaper in his hand with excitement.

In his eyes, there is something called "ambition".

"let's go!"

The helmsman, Badgers, hammered each other with both fists, "Captain Teach is the nemesis of all power users! No matter how strong the opponent is, in the end, they are still Demon fruit power!"

"Ahem, it's too dangerous..."

Du Q coughed violently and lay weakly on the horse, "I hope I won't die of illness before reaching the end of this journey..."

The strange and ugly pirates walked forward while chatting and laughing.

…

Warhead Island.

"Zhan Momomaru, what are you doing?"

Vegapunk took time out from his rare busy work and was sitting in the reception room to rest.

"Uncle Vegapunk, I won't tell you that I am watching a major news. After all, I am the most stern man in the world!"

Zhan Momomaru said with his back to Vegapunk.

"What news?"

Vegapunk picked up the teacup on the table.

"It's a pirate known as Blood Eye who has been resurrected."

puff! !

Vegapunk suddenly spit out a mouthful of tea and said excitedly: "Show me the newspaper quickly, what's going on!"

He took the newspaper from Zhan Taomaru's hand and took a long breath after reading it: "Sure enough, he is back."

The original blood sample in Vegapunk's ongoing "Green Blood Experiment" is the great pirate who disappeared a hundred years ago.

After those original conjectures were confirmed by this news, his thoughts at this time became even more chaotic.

"Uncle Vegapunk, do you know him?"

Zhan Taowan said curiously.

"In the past era, no one did not know him. Many of the things he did... can be said to have changed the world."

Vegapunk's eyes were confused, "Even the subject of 'the boundary between flesh and machine' that I have devoted myself to studying for so many years was deeply inspired by his blood factor theory."

Zhan Taowan looked surprised: "Is he really that powerful?"

"His achievements in exploring the mysteries of the human body can be said to be unprecedented."

Vegapunk said slowly, "Do you know why he was able to cross a hundred years and reappear in the world?"

"Why?" Zhan Taowan asked.

“Because he discovered a mysterious substance that rests in the human blood, the life factor. A sufficient amount of the life factor will produce a qualitative change and extend the life of its host.

Unfortunately, the total amount of life factors in each person's body is fixed and does not change from birth.

When I was young, I conducted experiments and found that different life factors in people's bodies would repel each other and could not coexist.

But he should be different.

If my guess is accurate, the Devil Fruit ability born from desire allows him to transform other people's life factors for his own use.

This should be the reason why he has never aged. "

"Is that...eternal life?"

Zhan Momomaru was immersed in Vegapunk's words.

"Whether you can live forever, no one knows."

Vegapunk shook his head slowly, and his divergent thoughts made him think of another thing, "And..."

Zhan Taomaru asked: "What else?"

Vegapunk glanced at Zhan Momomaru: "I can tell you, but you must not talk nonsense everywhere."

"Don't worry, Uncle Vegapunk, I am the most strict-tongued man in the world!"

Vegapunk nodded and continued: "He also dug out another power in the blood, evil spirit."

"Evil spirit?"

“It is diametrically opposed to the life factor that remains in the blood, which is a kind of spiritual energy that is constantly flowing in the human body.

In my sample of one hundred observations, I found two who were able to master this magical power through special training.

However, once the person who masters it uses this evil spirit, it will cause bad luck in a short period of time and even threaten his life...

It is a force that is more inclined to 'death'. "

While speaking, Vegapunk himself seemed to have fallen into some kind of deep thought, muttering to himself,

"Life and death are the greatest mysteries of the human body, and he seems to have understood..."

…

Red Line, Holy Land Mariejois.

The Five Elders, the most powerful people in the world government, were standing or sitting in the splendid hall. An official was half-kneeling on the ground, reporting the intelligence he had received.

"What, you mean redhead?"

The old man with a straight beard said in surprise.

The Marine sergeant said respectfully: "Yes, we are already starting to make a move."

"It can't be that he took action himself, right?"

The bald old man wearing glasses said.

The official said: "Yes, the envoy was sent indirectly."

"However, it is still too dangerous for Whitebeard to come into contact with red hair." The blond old man said with a serious face.

"That's true." The bald old man nodded with both hands.

"Once the redhead takes action, he will be a very hot potato, but he is not a man who will change the world for his own selfish desires."

The white curly-haired old man clasped his fingers together, "Let's hold still for now and observe for a while before talking."

"...There's one more thing." The official swallowed nervously.

"Is there anything else?" the curly-haired old man asked.

"Kaido and Charlotte Linlin also communicated yesterday."

After saying this, the Five Elders all frowned.

If Kaido and Charlotte Linlin really come into contact, the impact will probably be greater than the red hair's actions.

This matter had to attract their great attention.

"Inform Sengoku to send additional manpower and let New World's Marine closely monitor their actions." The bald old man said.

The curly-haired old man added: "Let CP0 also take action. They are better at doing these things. This signal is too dangerous. We must prepare for the worst."

The old man with a straight beard looked at the newspaper in his hand and said solemnly: "In the final analysis, everything is attributed to this man. His mere appearance has already made the sea turbulent."

"The matter has come to this, there is no point in talking more, let's talk about Shichibukai's successor first."

The bald old man wearing glasses said seriously, "If the small hole is not repaired, it will turn into a big hole sooner or later."

"That's right."

The blond old man frowned, "Once the camps of the three major forces collapse, it will directly have an impact on the world. We must maintain a balance of power."

The official said: "Yes, I have summoned the Shichibukai for this reason, but I don't know how many will come. After all, pirates are all arrogant guys..."

…

The conference hall in Pangu City.

Bartholomew Bear sat quietly on the sofa, browsing the books in his hands.

"How on earth can we control the Demon fruit power as well?"

Doflamingo sat on the balcony, murmuring and playing with the thread in his hand.

Under his control, two generals wearing Marine cloaks pulled out the swords from their waists with strange expressions.

"Doflamingo, it's you who did it. They are all good kids, please spare them."

Crane Vice Admiral glanced at Doflamingo.

"Good boy? Officer He, I really lost to you. In this case, let's finish the matter quickly so that this boring party can end, fufufufufufu!"

"How unbecoming is it to have a fight in the conference room!"

Sengoku opened the door with some displeasure.

Crane Vice Admiral looked up: "You were criticized by Commander Kong, right?"

"Let's not mention this for now."

Sengoku walked to the seat and said, "Let's start the meeting... If we wait any longer, no one will come. It's already unexpected that two of six will come."

He sat on the chair and was about to speak when a whale shark wearing a patterned bathrobe, Jinbei from Seven Warlords of the Sea, walked in slowly on wooden clogs:

"Sorry, I came a little late because something happened on The Fish Men Island."

Seeing the visitor, Doflamingo suddenly became interested and said with a joking smile:

"Unexpectedly, Jinbei, who has always been a loyal sea hero, is also interested in the successor of Seven Warlords of the Sea. Is there someone he wants to insert? Could it be the Fire Fist of the Whitebeard Pirates?"

Jinbei ignored Doflamingo's eccentric words and just said calmly: "I'm not the only one Shichibukai has come, there are others."

As soon as he finished speaking, a tall figure who was humming slightly followed Jinbei into the room, pointed at a Marine wearing a cloak of justice, and said in a sharp voice:

"The light here is so dazzling! Hey, that boy, pull down the curtains for me. I hate brightness, and where should my position be?!"

The person who started shouting as soon as he entered the door and made the entire conference room noisy was none other than the current Seven Warlords of the Sea, Gekko Moria.

Sengoku's brows twitched slightly, a little surprised.

How come Jinbei, who has never been interested in power, and Gekko Moria, who has been staying in the Devil's Triangle for who knows how many years, are here?

Now, there are the four Seven Warlords of the Sea...

Over the years, this scene has only appeared during the first official Shichibukai meeting.

"Fufufu, Gekko Moria, what kind of dark and damp wind was it that blew you out of the smelly ditch in the Devil's Triangle?"

Doflamingo looked askance at Gekko Moria, changing the object of his ridicule.

"Heavenly Yaksha, you are not trying to provoke me into doing something outrageous, are you?"

Gekko Moria sat on the seat, folded his hands behind his head, and the old god said,

"I don't have such thoughts, but you'd better not mess with me, otherwise I won't promise to turn all your citizens into my zombie specimens, hehehehe!"

"If you can do it, let's try it, Fufufu!"

Doflamingo had a charming smile on his face, "If you interfere with me, I will kill you without hesitation, and the world government can't protect you, I said so!"

"... After listening to it for a long time, it was just boring conversations. Could it be that I went to the wrong place?"

The man carrying the world's most powerful black knife slowly walked from the door, "Everyone here must have a reason to come. Don't let this meeting lose its meaning."

"...I didn't expect you to come too?"

Sengoku looked at Mihawk, known as the "World's Greatest Swordsman" and the current Seven Warlords of the Sea, and felt even more incredible.

A strange smile appeared on Doflamingo's lips: "What the hell, the most unlikely person is here."

"What's all the fuss about? I'm just here to listen. I'm a little interested in the Straw Hat Pirate that the council will discuss this time."

Mihawk looked indifferent, "Besides, you all have the same purpose as me..."

"Now that everyone is here..."

Sengoku watched everyone take their seats, "Then let the meeting begin. Regarding the subsequent succession of Seven Warlords of the Sea Crocodile, if you have any candidates in mind, you may wish to recommend them."

However, there was no incessant talking or even quarreling in the conference room. There seemed to be a strange tacit understanding. Everyone looked around, closed their eyes, or lowered their heads. Everyone was bored and silent.

Sengoku frowned. The reason why these big pirates came to Mariejois so proactively was obviously for one thing.

But why did they not take a position on Shichibukai's succession?

"Since you don't want to discuss it, I will reluctantly propose a candidate so that this issue can be ended as soon as possible."

Jinbei crossed his arms over his chest, "I have heard of a pirate named Edward Weibull..."

Before the words could be finished, the door of the conference hall was violently pushed open, and everyone's eyes couldn't help but fall on the visitor.

The current Seven Warlords of the Sea, Empress Boa Hancock, who is tall and has a peerless appearance, walked in and glanced at everyone with a cold look: "...has the meeting started?"

When everyone looked at her, she tilted her head back and picked her index finger with extreme contempt:

"But with such a beautiful Aijia, even if you are late, you won't have any complaints!!"

"Fufufu, another freak!" Doflamingo smiled strangely.

"Surprising..."

He raised his eyes and looked deeply at the woman in the purple cheongsam. As Marine's chief adviser, she knew the other party's secrets that could not be told to outsiders. Therefore, she was even more surprised by the other party's arrival.

After all, she had left indelible psychological scars when she was a girl, and now she is willing to come back to her old place again. She is probably under a psychological pressure that ordinary people cannot imagine.

Was the Seven Warlords of the Sea really enough to bring her here?

"The topic of today's parliament should be to discuss that man. We can continue now."

Boa Hancock sat on a seat next to Jinbei, crossing his legs elegantly, revealing his flawless calves and snow-white ankles.

All members of Seven Warlords of the Sea are actually here! !

Sengoku glanced back and forth in disbelief, shook off a certain thought that flashed through his mind, and said with a serious face:

"So... Jinbei, please continue. Your recommended candidate is Edward Weibull?"

"Edward Weibull?"

Boa Hancock suddenly frowned and interrupted the topic coldly, "The Aijia are not here for such a boring man. The Aijia just want to know if the news in the newspaper is true?"

After the words fell, everyone else looked up.

"I should have said this a long time ago! Hehehehe!"

Gekko Moria's sluggish look suddenly cheered up, "That man is in the Gaya Sea now, right? After you Marine arrest him, where are you going to throw his body? Give me his skeleton, even if it's just the skeleton!" "

"He is not someone who will be arrested lightly."

Jinbei answered calmly, "At that time, his strength was unparalleled in the world."

"But that was just 'in the beginning'. How many percent of his original strength can he have now?" Mihawk asked.

"Fufufu, they are all restless guys,"

Doflamingo laughed wildly, "Are you going to provoke him? You may end up with a tragic end, and there won't even be anyone to collect the body!"

"I want to try,"

There was a hint of seriousness in Mihawk's eyes as he said, "...what is the power that surpasses all humans in the world?"

"snort……"

Doflamingo snorted, "Madman."

"The Ai family is not interested in fighting and killing. The Ai family only wants to know, is the Xue Tong really...resurrected?"

Boa Hancock nodded slightly and glanced at Sengoku with a condescending expression.

"I see."

Only now did Sengoku realize that his previous guess was correct. The reason why these pirates were willing to come here...

There is only one reason.

Sengoku couldn't help but feel a little annoyed when he thought of Xue Tong.

Not long ago, he was scolded by the commander-in-chief Kong.

The reason is that after seeing the newspaper, he strongly advocated a heavy reward for the wanted blood-pupil Joel, but Commander Kong did not think so.

Now the red hair is ready to move, and Charlotte Linlin and Kaido have also begun to communicate. This sea is sending out signals of extreme danger all the time.

If we push Xue Tong into the hostile camp, it will only plunge the World Government into a quagmire that is hard to figure out.

Once the balance of forces among all parties is broken, the 'future' will only collapse into a mess.

"How could Xue Tong's identity and location be exposed? How do your Marines do things!"

"Also, you can't even understand the current situation. You've been serving as marshal for so many years in vain!!"

Commander Sora's roar echoed in his mind again. Sengoku couldn't help but take a deep breath. Faced with several eyes in the conference hall falling on him at this moment, he looked back at each one expressionlessly:

"I have no comment about the blood pupil."
