Pirates: Hades!

A few days later, after a fierce battle, the top 16 of the four major regions of the Kendo Tournament have been born.

This means that the regional competition is officially over.

The final 64 will compete for the title of the world's number one swordsman.

Those who can reach this step are all strong men whose reputations resound through the sea.

Even if they were originally unknown, they are now well-known.

The appearance of a peerless dark horse and many young figures make people look forward to the development after the top 64.

The attention of the sea seems to be attracted by Paros Island.

The shadows in the dark gradually begin to cover the core territory of the Tyrant Dragon Pirates, Dragon Island.

The backstab of the Tyrant Dragon Pirates many years ago caused the World Government to lose a top combat force.

How can the World Government forget such a blood feud?

It has always been the World Government that calculates others, but it did not expect to be calculated by a mere junior.

Even the Five Elders felt gloomy.

Recruiting soldiers from around the world, searching for the signpost stone, and targeting the Tyrannosaurus Pirates are what the World Government is currently doing.

Of course, it's not just because of hatred.

The Tyrannosaurus Pirates banned the World Government from buying seastone.

Although the World Government can still buy seastone through the underground world.

But not only is the quantity small, but the price is very expensive.

It is far less easy than when it cooperated with the Kingdom of Chronos and the Eternal Kingdom.

At present, it can also be purchased secretly from the Kingdom of Chronos and the Eternal Kingdom, but the quantity is not much.

How can the World Government endure such humiliation for a long time?

The news that there is a large seastone mine on Dragon Island spread across the sea.

There is even a fear that other forces do not know the value of the seastone owned by the Dragon Kingdom, and it is secretly rumored that this seastone mine is worth 5 trillion Baileys.

Even the World Government does not know how much seastone the original Wano Country has.

However, according to the data after the survey, the seastone veins contained in Dragon Island account for more than 90% of the entire sea.

Seastone is a rare mineral that can only be produced in a unique environment.

Although there are seastones in the sea, there are too few of them.

And it is difficult to mine. It is not as large as Dragon Island, which can be mined directly in the open air, and the cost is low.

Of course, this is the seastone mine that has been discovered.

There may be places in the sea where there are seastones, but they have not been discovered.

In Hades's opinion, the world government is still too conservative.

But in terms of value, seastone is only one-tenth of gold.

Today, one ton of gold is equivalent to more than 3 billion Baileys.

And Bailey is still depreciating at a slow rate.

The world government needs Bailey for development, so a plan to control the depreciation of Bailey was formulated at the World Conference.

A plan lasting more than ten years.

This level is acceptable to the member countries.

It will not affect the stability of the sea too much.

So there is no objection, and they can also prepare to minimize losses and even make a fortune if they get this news in advance.

In a dozen years, one ton of gold will be equivalent to 5 billion berries.

This is the simple price of seastone ore.

If the seastone is purified, its value will be multiplied several times and equal to gold.

But no one is so stupid as to take the trouble to sell the purified seastone.

Even so, 300 million berries per ton is an unimaginably high price.

This is just the normal price in the market.

If the Kingdom of Chronos trades through the Black Carbon Family, one ton of seastone will only cost 100 million or 200 million berries.

And if the World Government buys it through the underground world, one ton of seastone will cost about 400 million or even higher.

The gap is huge.

In particular, the World Government will definitely buy dozens of tons at a time.

The price paid is too high.

In the future Battle of the Top, the huge encirclement will be covered with a layer of seastone.

In order to build such a huge project, at least hundreds of billions of berries are needed for construction alone.

The hardness of seastone is comparable to diamond, and it has super high practicality.

Many sophisticated instruments also require seastone materials.

For top forces, seastone is a strategic material, not just for restricting people with special abilities.

The World Government has no intention of destroying the Tyrannosaurus Pirates, which is difficult to do.

However, they must break the deadlock of being blocked.

They can buy more and cheaper seastone mines.

If a large amount of seastone flows into the market, the value of seastone will definitely decrease.

Therefore, the World Government needs to let the pirates fight among themselves.

Interests move people's hearts, and he does not believe that other bigPirates can let go of such a huge cake.

There will definitely be a chaos in the end.

By selling seastone, the Tyrant Pirates can earn nearly tens of billions of profits every year.

This is when most of the seastone is purchased at low prices by the Kingdom of Chronos and the Eternal Kingdom.

The Black Charcoal Family also gained a lot of benefits from it.

And it is not easy to mine seastone.

Obviously, this is just the beginning.

As Hades thought, the value of the seastone mine on Dragon Island is low.

According to calculations, there are about 50,000 tons of seastone on Dragon Island.

Even if it is calculated at 50,000 tons, according to the current market price of seastone, the value of this seastone mine is as high as 15 trillion Baileys.

Except for Dragon Island, the seastone mines found in the sea so far are only hundreds or thousands of tons at most, which can be easily mined out.

It sounds small, and it is true.

Basically, only volcanic landforms can find a little.

Soon, there were rumors that the seastone mine on Dragon Island was worth 10 trillion berries.

A few days later, it became 30 trillion berries.

The news spread more and more terrifyingly.

Even the World Economic News Agency was "bought" by the World Government and published this news on the front page.

Even the Kendo Conference was ranked second.

"Is it finally time to take action?"

Hades listened to the news from the Netherworld, and his heart was not stirred at all.

He also knew that the World Government would not give up the news that "Black Dragon" was backstabbed, and would take action sooner or later.

Besides, the World Government needed more seastone.

The value of the seastone mine was of no reference value to Hades.

Because the value of seastone has actually been declining over the years.

Forces like the Kingdom of Chronos have already stockpiled a large amount of seastone.

The demand for seastone is not that urgent.

Moreover, in the past twenty years, before cooperating with the Eternal Kingdom and the World Government, the Kingdom of Chronos had been continuously obtaining a large amount of seastone through the Black Charcoal Family.

At that time, the value of seastone was much cheaper than it is now.

Even if there was a demand, there were not many forces that used it.

There were also relatively few people who knew about seastone.

With the large-scale excavation of seastone and the changes in the situation of the sea, the demand for seastone has also increased.

This has led to the rising price of seastone.

At least it has doubled.

Now, even Hades hopes that the price of seastone can be reduced.

Once the Tyrannosaurus Pirates have an accident.

With the further mining of seastone, various forces can unite to suppress the price of seastone.

More than 10 trillion Baileys sounds a bit scary.

But how long will it take to mine the seastone mine? At least decades, or even longer.

Ordinary people cannot mine seastone, which is comparable to diamonds, even if there are more people.

It requires a strong person with certain strength.
