Chapter 612 2 years
After Marco guided Vic and others to the place arranged by Whitebeard, he turned into a blue phoenix with fire and flew away. Then Rebecca used her ability to put the island into the sea.
Of course, the sea water in the chosen place is not that deep, and there must be a support point underneath, otherwise the island will sink directly. Few islands can float directly on the sea.
With Whitebeard in charge, Mantis did not stay here for long, and soon left Whitebeard's territory with Vic and the others.
Although Vic and his crew have left Whitebeard's territory, they are still in the waters of the New World. They went to the first half of the Grand Line originally to invite Mantis. Now that they have succeeded, Vic has no intention of returning to the first half.
The warship was converted into a pirate ship and returned to the sea from the sky. Only then did the information about Wick appear on the desk of the World Government again. They had been looking for Wick and his men for more than a month, and the five knights of the Knights of God had already gathered together, waiting for the information from the World Government to deal with Wick.
But who would have thought that Vic and his gang had disappeared for so long, and when they reappeared they had already arrived in the New World, so the five of them immediately led their agents to the New World. The Knights of God had suffered repeated defeats at the hands of Vic, and they were determined to get back at him no matter what.
With the intelligence capabilities of the World Government, as long as they don't deliberately cover up, they will basically be discovered by their agents as soon as they show up. With Vic's current strength, there is definitely no need to deliberately cover up, so their whereabouts were quickly locked down.
It didn't take long for them to be found by the five-member group of Divine Knights. Knowing that the people of the Divine Knights did not abide by any rules, Vic did not let Rebecca and the others get close to these people, lest they become his weakness. He directly let Rebecca take the pirate ship and leave using her ability, while he himself went to meet them.
Because Vic had already made arrangements at a long distance, even if these Celestial Dragons were very fast, with Vic taking the initiative to attack, they would not be able to bypass Vic and intercept the pirate ship.
In addition, their target was originally Vic, and now they have five people, so they don’t care much about Rebecca and the others leaving.
Rebecca and the others have seen Vic's current strength, so they are not very worried about Vic. They had besieged Vic together before, but were easily defeated by Vic and had no idea of Vic's strength.
Although there were five enemies this time, Vic was very different from before and he remained firm in the face of the siege of five people.
Although Vic has the ability to kill one or two Divine Knights with his full strength, as he thought before, he can no longer kill Celestial Dragons at this stage. He needs to accumulate strength.
Therefore, Vic only used the five of them to hone his own moves, reactions, domineering power, etc., and when the gains from the battle were enough, he would simply flee far away.
However, the fact that he cannot kill the Celestial Dragons does not mean that he can be easily provoked. Victor continued to launch revenge on other bases of the World Government.
In the eyes of the World Government, they felt that they had seen Wick's limit because of his performance. As long as the Five Knights worked harder, they would be able to defeat Wick. Wick retaliated in other places because he could not defeat these five people.
However, after Vic took his revenge, he disappeared again, which made the five-member group furious and caused the World Government to suffer heavy losses again.
When Wick's pirate group revealed their whereabouts again, the World Government immediately received the information. It can also be said that Wick deliberately exposed his whereabouts, because after destroying the stronghold, he took all his companions to Titan Island for training, and he himself went to Thunder God Island for training.
After a period of training, he had gained a lot of insights and accumulations, and needed to find someone to verify them in actual combat. The five-man group of the Knights of God were the most suitable targets. Not only could he refine his own moves and abilities, but he could also learn the advanced use of the Six Styles from them. It could be said to be a matter of killing two birds with one stone.
This time the result still ended with Vic's "hasty escape", but Vic's revenge came exceptionally quickly. Several more strongholds were destroyed by Vic, and the resident personnel suffered heavy casualties!
Vic would show up every once in a while, and then have a fight with the five divine knights who came to visit him, and finally pretend to be defeated and retaliate against the World Government's base.
During these days, two years passed unknowingly. During these two years, many major events happened. At the beginning, ordinary people were still watching Vic's performance with relish and were deeply shocked by his boldness in repeatedly provoking the world government. However, as such things happened more and more, people got used to it!
In addition, Charlotte Linlin has been expanding her territory and power. After so many years of accumulation, she finally has the qualifications to be on par with Whitebeard, so she is also given the title of Emperor of the Sea by the World Government.
The two sea emperors intimidated the New World. Under such pressure, the navy had to respond. Even though the World Government was very dissatisfied with the navy, Akainu, Kizaru, and Aokiji were still promoted to admirals of the navy under such circumstances.
But the good times didn't last long. Kaido saw that Big Mom, an old woman, had become the emperor of the sea, so what else could he lack? So he stepped up his exploitation of Wano Country, and a large number of weapons and sea tower stone products flowed to various countries in the New World.
These forces that relied on Kaido to provide weapons to build their empires have also joined Kaido. Kaido's strength in the New World has quickly expanded and has attracted the attention of the World Government.
During these two years, Vic obtained an ancient book that recorded how to practice hypnosis. Vic, who had long wanted to learn about this subject, naturally would not let it go. With the blessing of his proficiency and talent, Vic learned it quickly.
Combined with the use of Observation Haki, he can already create illusions in other people's minds. In fact, after comprehending the Observation Haki that can foresee the future, he can now create illusions, but without the blessing of hypnosis, the illusions he creates are somewhat abrupt and stiff, and can easily be noticed and seen through.
But with hypnosis, he can bring people into the illusion world he has woven with just a little verbal guidance or some kind of action or suggestion, without any abruptness or unnaturalness.
This is a series of scenes with cause and effect, and plot development, which gradually leads people to the scene that Vic wants. This is the most unpredictable.
Because there is a step-by-step foreshadowing, it will not arouse suspicion. Vic wants to say that illusion plus hypnosis is really an illusion! It can make people immersed in the world he weaves and cannot extricate themselves. This is a very scary ability that can shape a person and destroy a person!
