Pirates: Honest Men in the Navy

Three Fortresses of Justice? Deep Sea Prison? Impel Down City.

This is the nightmare place for all criminals and villains.

And among them, the sixth level, the infinite hell, which is not known to ordinary people, is even more so.

The dark space is filled with silence, like a real netherworld.

Shanks, who was imprisoned here, shackled as usual, woke up from his sleep in a daze.

He could no longer tell the difference between day and night, nor did he know how long it had been since he was captured, let alone what happened to his friends now.

Every day is spent in such a muddle-headed way.

Sometimes, Shanks would also think about how to escape from here.

But for hundreds of years, there has been no major problem in the deep-sea prison. It is like a shackle that makes people despair, tightly locking the ambition of the prisoners, the ambition called freedom.

Even Shanks is no exception.

Yes, he couldn't imagine how to escape from here.

Falling into this hell and dying silently may be the best ending for him.

But today, something unexpected seemed to have happened, because after he opened his eyes, he found an additional figure in the originally empty cell opposite.

Is he a new prisoner?

In my impression, there was originally a person being imprisoned opposite him, but that person committed suicide more than two months ago, and it has been vacant ever since. I don’t know which unlucky guy it was...

Shanks, who had just woken up, was still a little confused, but his ears received a familiar yet unfamiliar voice.

"Hey, Shanks, are you awake?"

Shanks was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up, and with a look of surprise, he looked at the cell opposite and said:

"Mr. Vice Captain!? Why are you here too? This is really great..."

However, as soon as he finished speaking, he realized that what he said was not quite right, so he quickly explained:

"No, no, it's not good. I mean I'm glad to see you, but I don't want to see you here..."

That's right, it was Rayleigh, the old hapless man, who was imprisoned in the cell opposite Shanks.

After the entire battle on Jam Island, he was the only one who became the clown in the end, which made Rayleigh extremely embarrassed.

Good guy, a group of protagonists were not caught, but he entered the Impel Down City as a free agent.

This is so...

"Although I really don't want to see you here, it's really unlucky." Rayleigh complained.

At this time, Shanks also woke up from the dazed state of just getting out of bed, and he would not say any more ridiculous words.

He asked with some curiosity: "Vice Captain, how did you get in?"

"Hey, isn't that a coincidence? Just like you, he was caught by that bastard Louis." Reilly said with a smile.

I have to say that this old guy Rayleigh is quite open-minded. Even in this infinite hell, he doesn't show any signs of decadence.

Maybe it's because he just came in not long ago, so he hasn't really experienced the feeling of despair.

"It's actually that bastard Louis?" Shanks said in surprise.

Seemingly remembering something again, he then shook his head and sighed: "We, the Roger Pirates, really have a fateful conflict with him..."

After hearing this, Reilly glanced at the cell next to him and looked at the figure sitting silently inside, seemingly meditating. Then he nodded and said, "Yes..."

Douglas Barrett.

Naturally, he was also imprisoned in this infinite hell.

But after all this calculation, the Roger Pirates, including three big bosses, were all imprisoned in Impel Down City, and they all fell into the hands of the same person.

Therefore, what Shanks just said is not a problem.

What's more, their former captain, Pirate King Roger, theoretically fell into Louis' hands.

Looking at it this way, Louis almost single-handedly destroyed most of the strength of the Roger Pirates.

"Boring. I felt your boredom when we were still on the ship. I didn't expect that we haven't seen each other for so many years. Even though we met here again, you are still so boring, Reilly..." Barrett said in a very disdainful tone. said.

Riley was already used to Barrett's tone, so he just smiled and said:

"This is not the tone that should be used to reminisce about the past. We have all fallen into the same situation. Why should we be so indifferent? It's better to get along well."

"Hmph!" Barrett snorted coldly and ignored Reilly.

Then he stood up, put on the shackles, and started working out, doing push-ups and squats, all in one go.

Reilly was in another cell, watching this scene with some surprise.

But Shanks explained with a smile: "Don't be surprised. In a few days, deputy captain, you will get used to it. This guy is always so restless."

After a slight pause in his tone, Shanks's face darkened a lot, and he continued: "But I think he is right. In this damn hell, if you don't find something to do for yourself, it will be very difficult. You’ll go crazy soon…”

However, Shanks' self-regulation ability is still very strong, and then he laughed and said: "In this regard, I can be regarded as your senior, vice-captain, the prison you live in now, his previous owner , he was swallowed by infinite despair and darkness and committed suicide..."

Rayleigh looked at Barrett, then at Shanks, then smiled and said, "Thanks for the advice, senior..."

"Hahahahaha..." Shanks laughed.

In fact, every prisoner who has just arrived in Impel Down City will think about the same question.

That's how to get out of this damn hell.

Barrett was like this, and later Shanks was the same, and now Rayleigh is also thinking about this issue.

He even discussed it with Shanks openly, causing wanton ridicule from countless prisoners around him.

However, the final answer is...

No solution!

For hundreds of years, no one has escaped from here. The golden lion Shi Ji who once caused a craze here also fell at the last moment.

The arrival of this hope, and then the feeling of despair, killed the idea of ​​​​escape for most of the prisoners here.

Leaning against the cold wall, Reilly thought of something and suddenly laughed.

"Vice Captain, what are you laughing at?" Shanks asked curiously.

Lei Li smiled and said: "I have a hunch..."

"What hunch?"

"It won't take long, three years, or five years, this prison, this hell, will become lively, hahahaha, by then many acquaintances may come in as guests.

If that's the case, it doesn't seem to be unacceptable. "Reilly's laughter was still there and he said with great expectation.

"If that's the case, I won't be lonely anymore. I really hope that Bucky guy can come in and keep me company..." Shanks smacked his lips.

At this time, Bucky, who was still fooling around in the fish pond in the East China Sea, sneezed and felt a little strange.

Who is talking about him?

If he knew that it was his good brother Shanks who was praying for him to be caught in Impel Down, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit two ounces of blood.

But having said that, given his threat level, he probably won't be able to enter the sixth floor of Impel Down City, and he might even be dragged directly to the Windless Zone to mine...

So theoretically speaking, even if Bucky enters Impel Down, he can't be cellmates with Shanks and the others.

…………

The time comes to the end of 1514 in the Haiyuan calendar.

The aftermath of the battle for supremacy among the pirates of the New World has finally dissipated.

Although, everyone knows that the big winner behind this war is the navy.

But this war ultimately rewrote the pirate pattern in the new world.

Big? Mom? Charlotte? Lingling.

Beasts? Kaido.

Whitebeard? Edward Newgate.

King Shichibukai? White Hunter? Smoker.

In today's era, in this new world, the four of them have become out-and-out top players in the pirate camp.

Although judging from the results of the war, Smoker can barely be regarded as a 'winner'.

Charlotte Lingling, Kaido, and Newgate are the losers.

However, due to various reasons such as strength and background, Smoker failed to catch up with the so-called loser. On the contrary, it was only after catching up that he finally managed to be on equal footing with the three of them.

For this, we need to rely on the support from Mary Joa behind us.

On the contrary, although Charlotte Lingling, Kaido, and Newgate lost the war, except for the navy, the maritime overlord, no one else in the New World could do anything to them.

The pain caused by the defeat forced the three of them to give up the idea of ​​continuing the war. They could only silently lick their wounds, accumulate new strength, and wait for the new situation to change.

In this way, the pirate pattern in the new world suddenly became clear.

In the past, Newgate dominated the New World and dominated the situation.

Up to now, the four major forces are divided into one party, and no one can do anything about anyone else's situation.

Gradually, the world calls Charlotte Lingling, Kaido, Newgate, and Smoker...

'One Piece Four Emperors'!

It is believed that the four of them are the top figures among pirates in this era.

Once this statement appeared, it was quickly recognized by more people.

So ever.

At this point, the era of the four emperors in the New World has officially begun.

…………

The first half of the Grand Line, somewhere in the sea.

On a naval assault boat from Marineland, Louis was sitting on the deck with a small pony, a fishing rod in his hand, and was fishing leisurely.

Next to him, there was a small table with juice, wine, pastries, and a phone bug on it.

"So, instead of being your Yonko in the New World, what are you doing in the East China Sea?" Louis tilted his head and took a sip of juice, and asked the phone bug with a smile.

That's right, over there at the phone bug is none other than the Yonko, White Hunter Smoker, who is currently in the limelight.

He is also the only man who, as the King of the Shichibukai, ranks among the four emperors.

From a macro perspective, Marie Joa is quite satisfied with Smoker being able to become the Four Pirate Emperors.

Because in the view of Marie Joa's senior management, the current Shichibukai Organization has, to a certain extent, achieved the significance of balancing the situation in the sea.

Smoker was able to seize a quarter of the New World Pirates as the King's Shichibukai. This undoubtedly increased the weight of the King's Shichibukai.

As for Louis, although he had already had some suspicions that Smoker could reach this point with the support of the navy.

But when Smoker really became the fourth queen, he was still very emotional.

Three years and three years, if the network is not closed, I will become the boss!

Could it be possible that the casual joke back then could actually come true?

Later, the three Newgate families will definitely be dealt with by the navy who breaks free from the shackles.

And by then, maybe Smoker might actually become the second Pirate King? !

Thinking about it again, it is even more interesting to think that Shanks, who was supposed to be sitting on the throne of the Four Emperors, is still imprisoned in the city.

Listening to Louis' inquiry, Smoker smiled and said on the phone: "It's nothing, I just went to the East China Sea to discuss a business, and that guy Dorag asked me to meet..."

"Ah, that's it. Let me think about...the Kingdom of Goa, right?" Louis thought about it for a while, and then asked.

More than three months ago, an incident involving a change of kingship occurred in the Kingdom of Goa.

The original old king finally died in depression due to physical reasons and the Tianlong incident.

The great nobles of the Kingdom of Goa, the Altluk family, took over the royal power of the Kingdom of Goa and became a new generation of royal family.

After the Altluk family came to power, they carried out a large-scale 'reform'. Of course, this kind of reform was not just about drinking tea and having a meeting, but it was filled with blood and fire.

In itself, the Altluk family is a deep-rooted noble class in the Kingdom of Goa, and now they have taken refuge in the boss Dorag because of Sabo.

As a result, this reform, with Dorag's support and arrangements, was quickly carried out.

Although this reform was full of blood and fire, it was not that extreme.

In fact, this is Dorag's new attempt in the Kingdom of Goa.

He did not slaughter all the nobles, nor did he directly delegate power to the people at the bottom. He only got rid of some bad policies in the kingdom and changed many national policies.

And Smoker's arrival this time is to negotiate a big deal with Dorag.

On the surface, it is a cooperation negotiation between the Good Luck Lai Group and the Goa Kingdom.

However, in fact, this is a business cooperation between the four emperors of the new world, Smoker, and the world's most vicious criminal, Dorag, and the organization behind him.

Dorag, who has achieved initial results and tasted certain benefits, is undoubtedly ready to copy this model.

Grasp the royal power with one hand and the people with the other.

Both hands must be grasped, both hands must be hard!

He has to take both paths.

Without chatting for too long about Dorag, Smoker changed the topic: "By the way, General, that guy Doflamingo has arrived in the new world. I guess he will make some moves soon. I talked to him before He discussed many things on the phone bug. But seriously, is this guy really worthy of our trust?"

"Who knows, but at least at this stage, our interests are the same. As for the trust you mentioned...take your time, this thing never appears out of thin air." Louis said.

After a short pause, the fishing rod in Louis' hand trembled. Seeing this, he laughed and said, "Okay, I won't tell you more, my fish is hooked!"
