Chapter 223 Roundtable Conference
The news of Rocks' death spread throughout the world in a short period of time.
All the news about the Rocks Pirates' attack on the Valley of Gods was replaced by this incident.
Under the influence of the World Government, everyone knows about it overwhelmingly.
The news publicized the hard work of the World Government and the Navy, exaggerated the crimes of the Rocks Pirates, and stood on the moral high ground.
He never mentioned the losses suffered by the World Government in this battle, nor about the existence of the "King of Heaven".
This may seem ridiculous to some.
It has to be said that this approach is very effective, and only a few people know the truth after all.
The prestige of the world government and navy has greatly increased.
The death of Rocks D. Gibek made the people who had been harmed by the Rocks Pirates and the chaos of the sea over the years shed tears of emotion.
The loud cheers of gongs and drums make people seem to see the beautiful and peaceful days coming in the future.
This is just the normal operation of the world government, turning black into white and bad into good.
However, without Roger's participation and other influences, the outcome of this war has changed a lot.
At the very least, the title of "hero" has nothing to do with Garp. He did not defeat Rocks. Rocks died under the bombardment of the "King of Heaven".
However, as the absolute main force in the fight against Rocks, Garp was also within the scope of the World Government's propaganda, and his popularity among the navy and even the world skyrocketed.
But the final result, the shocking casualties after statistics, made them really unhappy.
The Battle of the Valley of Gods was over, and they still couldn't relax.
In the vast four seas and the first half of the Great Route, there are a large number of pirates and countless messes that they need to deal with.
At least until order is restored in the Four Seas and the first half of the Great Line, they will not be able to counterattack the New World.
The Navy also needs time to regain strength.
Especially the World Government, which suffered the most losses, cannot recover even in twenty years.
Before they had much rest, the franchise countries had already begun to press.
The death of Rocks is a matter of joy.
However, there is no very direct connection with the interests of the franchised countries.
Pirates are ravaging the sea, waterways are severely damaged, merchant ships are constantly being plundered, and even the kingdom's territory is attacked by pirates.
These truly touch upon their fundamental interests.
The navy simply cannot refuse the needs of the participating countries.
In the past two years, if the alliance countries had not increased the share of heavenly gold and the world government's military expenditure for the navy had increased a lot, the navy would have been able to recover quickly.
Have enough troops to support the entire sea.
Only by stabilizing their basic base can they redirect their energy back to the new world.
On the other side, the headquarters of Rocks Pirates, Honeycomb Island.
Many members of the Rocks Pirates have returned.
Beehive Island also gathered a large number of Rocks Pirates members, as well as countless treasures.
The atmosphere of the entire island is a bit weird, maintaining a delicate balance.
But in the next moment, it might turn into a burning explosive barrel.
Rocks D. Jiback, the captain who founded the Rocks Pirates, has died.
Before Rocks died, he personally announced that the Rocks Pirates were officially disbanded.
Without the suppression of Rocks, almost all the ambitious pirates and cadres began to feel swollen.
Sitting on the Beehive Island with countless treasures, once the Rocks Pirates lose control, the entire island will turn into a slaughterhouse and a hell on earth.
And this is what no one wants to see.
Pirates are wary of each other, worried that others are eyeing their treasures.
It is the core cadres who will determine the island's next fate.
The calmness on Beehive Island is a little strange. Everyone is waiting for the final decision, which may very well be related to their next fate.
Beehive Island, a paradise for pirates, now seems to have turned into a forbidden land, and most of the forces that do not belong to the Rocks Pirates have been expelled directly.
The entire island has been completely blocked except for the Rocks Pirates.
No pirate ship can get close. Once they get close, they will be attacked and destroyed by the Rocks Pirates indiscriminately.
No one dares to touch the Rocks Pirates' bad luck at this time.
The moment has come to decide the next fate of the sea.
The tall, skull-shaped building in the center of Beehive Island.
In the hall that serves as the meeting place for the Rocks Pirates.
Huge round table.
The thirteen squad captains sat in their own seats along the table.
Nowadays, one of the most critical figures is missing, and that is the empty seat at the head, which belongs to Rocks D. Jiback's throne.
There were only thirteen of them present.
The rest of the cadres, the mid-to-high-end combat forces, all stay outside the core of Honeycomb Island, and no one is allowed to get close.
"What's next?"
"Death Gun" Leon frowned and looked at the figures.
Yes, what should I do? Rocks is dead.
"It's natural to disband. Among the people present, there should be no one who will obey anyone, right?"
Hades chuckled.
As soon as he finished speaking, several angry eyes fell on him.
"Hey, Hades, why didn't you join the battle? If you and the Titans take action, we will definitely not lose this battle."
Zach slapped the table with his big hands and stood up.
You must know that he was very aggrieved, and his life was almost in danger.
What followed was a series of glances.
Hades didn't care. "Of course I joined the war. I will control the process of the war. Besides, Roger is here."
He explained briefly and didn't take Zach's words to heart.
This reason is an explanation for them. The shocking collision between Hades and Roger was felt by many strong people in the Valley of Gods.
"It's Roger's aura." Newgate said something for Hades. Newgate, who had fought with Roger, obviously knew Roger's aura.
"Let's talk about business."
Everyone looked at each other, and just as Hades said, no one present would surrender to anyone.
It is inevitable that the Rocks Pirates will fall apart next.
But in their hearts, they are actually ready.
However, just after the war, the Rocks Pirates immediately disintegrated and started fighting among themselves, which was obviously not a good thing.
Lone Rangers like "Death Gun" Leon don't need to care, they just need to watch the show. No matter what happens next, it has nothing to do with him.
However, he also wanted to see what would happen next.
Interested, more people chose the latter.
