One Piece: Divine Bird Phoenix

On the calm sea, a small sailboat with a pirate flag was swaying with the waves.

On the deck of the pirate ship, Enelu's fingers flashed with lightning, and large pieces of thunder scattered out, constantly piercing the hearts of the pirates.

Seeing that Enelu was having fun, An reminded him: "Don't kill them all, leave a few

to drive the ship."

"Tsk! What a trouble."

Putting away the thunder in his hand, Enelu walked forward, leaving behind corpses and trembling pirates.

The pirates who survived by chance found that the devil had left and ran into the cabin in a hurry.

...

Two days later.

On the deck of the pirate ship, An punched Enelu to the ground, while pointing out his shortcomings.

"Don't rely too much on the power of the devil fruit. Use your observation Haki more. You also need to exercise your physique more. It hasn't been long since you've exhausted your physical strength."

Faced with An's humiliation, Enel's face turned red but he didn't say anything to refute. Compared with the last time he was killed instantly, this time he really realized that he was too weak. During the whole process of the competition, he didn't even touch the corner of the opponent's clothes. It was really embarrassing.

"Okay, let's stop here today!"

Living on Sky Island for a long time, no one has ever guided him to practice. Enel's strength has greatly exceeded An's expectations. Next, he only needs to strengthen his physique and domineering.

"What is that!!" The pirate on the watchtower suddenly exclaimed.

Looking in the direction of the sound, the sea in the distance was covered by endless fog at some point. Under the gray-white fog, everything looked so gloomy and terrifying.

"What is that?"

Sweating profusely, Enel got up from the ground at some point, with alertness in his eyes.

It has been about ten days since he came to Qinghai, and he has seen a lot of strange weather. For example, islands with snow all year round, seas with frequent thunderstorms, and strange weather where it was sunny one moment and suddenly turned into night the next.

"Devil's Triangle Sea Area!"

It is covered by fog all year round. It is said that there are demons living in it, and ships that enter it are dead or alive. Even if a ship occasionally floats out, no one can find a living person on it, not even a corpse.

"Hiss!"

Taking a breath of cold air from his mouth, Enelu hurriedly ordered the pirates to avoid this sea area.

Before the pirates took action, An interrupted directly: "Don't turn around, just rush in, our target this time is the demon inside."

"An, your target is Gekko Moria, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea?" Yixiao, who had remained silent since leaving Mogu Town, suddenly asked.

Knowing that the other party was referring to something, An responded calmly, "Uncle Yixiao, you also know Moria."

Yixiao nodded slightly, and then said, "The purpose of my going out this time is to understand the system of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. It can only be regarded as an accident to go with you."

"So that's the case. What do you think of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Uncle Yixiao?"

"I don't know. So far, I have only seen Crocodile, the Seven Warlords of the Sea. I also have a question in my heart. I hope you can answer it, An."

"Uncle, you want to ask me why I didn't kill Crocodile and let him stay in Alabasta."

Seeing that An spoke his mind at once, Yixiao nodded solemnly, "Please tell me."

"In fact, this is very simple, it's just that the living Crocodile has greater value. A hero like him will abide by his promise. This is why I let him stay in Alabasta."

"What is the value of a living Crocodile?" After thinking a lot, Yixiao asked directly without thinking about the answer.

The air around Zhou Sheng became stagnant, and An's atmosphere became serious. After a pause, the girl spoke in a low voice.

"Uncle Yixiao, if I tell you that there will be a war that affects the whole world in the future, and Crocodile plays an important role in it, would you believe it?"

"A war that affects the world?"

"That's right! After this war, the whole world began to go berserk, and a wave no less than the death of Pirate King Gol D. Roger was set off. A new round of pirate hegemony on the sea began to fight again, and the whole sea will fall into chaos again, and you and I can't stay out of it."

"That's why I left Crocodile. I need power, more power, to protect civilians in this chaos, and by the way, completely end the pirate era and let this sea return to what it should be."

A blue fish jumped out of the sea, and An caught the flying splash and threw it back into the sea.

"This sea likes quietness!"

"An, why do you think such a war will happen?" Yixiao couldn't imagine what kind of war could cause turmoil in the entire pirate world, so he had to ask directly.

I complained silently in my heart, I can't tell you that I saw it on the video. In a flash, An had already thought of a way to explain.

"Uncle Yixiao, how long has the throne of the Pirate King been vacant?"

Although I don't understand why An asked this, I still answered honestly, "It's been 17 years."

"Yes, 17 years!"

"This peak that countless pirates are rushing to, no one has reached the top for 17 years!!"

"In these 17 years, because the four emperors, Whitebeard, Kaido, Big Mom, and Red Hair Shanks, have restrained each other and ruled the entire New World, no one has been able to become the Pirate King."

"But time will keep passing, the four of them will grow old, and new pirates will continue to emerge. When the newcomers' power exceeds that of the old ones, a new struggle for hegemony will start on the sea."

An's explanation was like a thunderbolt, instantly breaking Yixiao's doubts.

"The old king died, and the new king ascended the throne."

"This is the most chaotic time, just like the death of Gol D. Roger, it took 17 years to calm down."

Seeing Yixiao's slightly worried expression, An smiled and comforted: "Uncle, don't worry so much. Since I can think of this, I am naturally prepared."

"Of course, if Uncle Yixiao has not joined the navy at that time, you can go to the East China Sea Windmill Kingdom to find me."

...

East China Sea, Windmill Kingdom.

After sending away the officials of the World Government, Heath showed a satisfied smile on his face. Although it cost a lot of money and promised to pay a large amount of Tianshangjin every year, the Windmill Kingdom finally became a member of the World Government.

At the side door of the King's Hall, Xi Lun strode out, "Brother, the kingdom's newest warship has been built, do you want to go and see it?"

"Of course I have to go and see it, this is our future power to maintain world order."

At the kingdom's military port, two new warships loaded with the latest scientific research results of the Ministry of Science were docked steadily at the dock.

After many updates and iterations, the kingdom's warships are now no different from the navy's warships in appearance.

After reviewing the performance of the warships, Xi Si nodded with satisfaction and ordered Xi Lun on the side: "Find a remote island and start mass production of warships for me."
