With the strongest bloodline, it’s not too much to have more children, right?

After the Rocks Pirates disbanded, there were three overlords of the New World.

The most powerful Flying Pirates occupy one-fifth of the islands in the second half of the New World.

The Flying Pirates are led by Shiki the Golden Lion, whose bounty is 4.5 billion berries. There are ten major fleets under them. The captain of the First Fleet, Crusher Carnit, has a bounty of 2.7 billion berries. Even the captain of the Tenth Fleet, Queen of Thorns, who has the lowest bounty, has a bounty of 1.15 billion berries.

Although the Hiku Pirates have not yet reached their peak, they are already the undisputed overlords of the New World.

The second force is the pirate alliance composed of the John Pirates, the Silver Axe Pirates and the Wang Zhi Pirates, which jointly occupied the first half of the New World centered on the Beehive Island.

Captain John offered a reward of 3.9 billion berries, Silver Axe offered a reward of 3.8 billion berries, and Wang Zhi offered a reward of 3.58 billion berries.

Although the three of them have more high-end combat power than the Flying Pirates, they are not of the same mind after all and dare not confront Shiki head-on.

Finally, there is the Roger Pirates led by Roger, but this group of people has no fixed place to live and does not occupy any island.

The remaining middle section of the New World is divided up among countless pirates, including Charlotte Linlin with a bounty of 3.9 billion, Whitebeard Newgate with a bounty of 4 billion, Evil Dragon Jarren with a bounty of 3.5 billion, Void Walker Abberline with a bounty of 3.3 billion, Silver Emperor Philip with a bounty of 3.1 billion... and many other powerful pirates.

The ocean is much more severe now than at the beginning of the story. Just look at the strong men who appeared later, the old Whitebeard, the golden lion Shiki who lost both legs but still had a rudder stuck in his head, and the aunt Charlotte Linlin who neglected training. Only Kaido can uphold the face of the pirates.

But at this time, Kaido was still on the road to becoming stronger and his bounty was only 1.2 billion, so he was not considered a big pirate.

…………

In an unknown sea area of the Grand Line, a small golden spaceship entered a fog.

Zell and his group put on nano armor and flew down from the sky. After they left, the spaceship disappeared into the sky.

This is a technology invented by Hurley that combines transparent technology to make ships invisible.

Pikachu stood on Zel's shoulder, Suicune stepped on the sea and followed Zel and the others, and Lina and Alisa put on nano armor and flew in the sky.

"As expected of the armor made by Miss Hurley, it's so convenient."

No matter how many times she experienced it, Lina was always amazed by the nano armor.

Following the instructions on the map, Zel discovered a devil fruit in the fog, and decisively led everyone to explore.

After flying for a few minutes, we finally found a small island ahead.

"Captain, where is this? It feels so eerie."

Lina hid behind Zel and looked carefully at the fog-shrouded island.

Zell took out the Book of Omniscience, thinking about getting information about the island, and opened the book.

In order to make the Book of Omniscience truly omniscient, Zell made a special trip to O'Hara over the past two years to collect a large number of books.

O'Hara's books covered a variety of topics, and Zell wanted to see if there was any information about the island.

Open the Book of Omniscience and there is only a short sentence.

"An island hidden deep in the mist, a paradise for snakes and a graveyard for travelers!"

The content is very simple. It seems that this island is very secretive. Not many people have been here, or rather... not many people have successfully left.

"S~"

As Zel and the others walked forward, the sound of snakes spitting out their tongues began to be heard from all directions.

Ze'er and the others stopped, as they were surrounded by a dense swarm of snakes.

However, no one was afraid of this horrific scene.

Zel's domineering aura radiated outwards, and the entire group of snakes was instantly annihilated, without a single exception.

Zell and his group continued walking calmly on the road as if nothing had happened.

After about half an hour, we finally saw signs of human habitation.

The pale buildings scattered here and there looked particularly creepy.

Click.

One of the doors opened and a little boy's head appeared.

The boy's skin was pale, like a patient who had been in the ward for a long time.

The little boy waved to Zel and the others, motioning them to come over.

Without hesitation, Zel, who was very confident in his own strength, led everyone directly into the house where the little boy was.

There was not only the little boy in the house, but also many skinny people, some sitting or lying, with empty eyes and not saying a word.

"Are there any new people here?"

A short and thin old man saw Ze'er and his group and spoke.

Seeing the old man's regretful expression, Zel asked, "Grandpa, can you tell me what this island is like?"

The old man sat down and began to explain, "This is an island where once you enter, you can never leave. It is shrouded in mist, and countless snakes breed here. The Lord of the Serpents will not allow anyone to leave."

Zel was confused and asked, "Why doesn't the Lord of Serpents allow anyone to leave?"

The old man raised his head, his eyes wide open, making people feel creepy: "Will herders let the cattle and sheep go?"

Zel also understood that this so-called Lord of Snakes should be feeding on humans, and these people are his food.

"With so many people, can't we escape?"

Lina asked from the side.

But the old man seemed to have gone crazy, and kept repeating "I can't escape, I can't escape!"

The little boy who brought Zel in explained that the Lord of Snakes could communicate with all the snakes on the island, and anyone who tried to leave would be eaten.

Can I communicate with all snakes through brain waves?

Zel suddenly thought of the many snakes he encountered when he landed on the island. It seemed that the so-called Lord of Snakes should have noticed him.

Zel had already detected a large number of life forms approaching here, and hurriedly called everyone out.

When I opened the door, I found that snakes kept emerging from the fog, and there were even quite a few snakes nearly a hundred meters long, and there were all kinds of snakes.

A "hiss~hiss~" sound was heard, and the people hiding in the house wailed in despair.

"Here it comes again, it finally comes!"

"Just die, I can't bear it anymore."

A mad man couldn't stand the atmosphere and ran out desperately, but was soon knocked to the ground by a group of snakes.

However, the snakes did not do anything to the man. They just dragged him up and walked towards the fog.

"One more day to live!"

Many people breathed a sigh of relief and were happy that they were not selected.

The little boy next to Zel explained, "Every day one person is taken away and sacrificed to the Lord of the Serpents. The snakes won't attack us."

One a day?

This also explains why some people are still alive. It seems that the so-called king of snakes should not be very big.

"Captain, what should we do?"

Lina looked up at Zel. The oppressive atmosphere made her feel suffocated.

"Let's go and see what kind of person this Lord of Snakes is."

The few hundred survivors watched Zell and his men walk away, and someone couldn't help but say, "How arrogant! Even a pirate with a bounty of 500 million berries couldn't defeat the Lord of Serpents."

However, some people still have a glimmer of hope in their hearts.

"I wonder if they can attract the attention of the Lord of Serpents, like that pirate three years ago. If so, maybe we have a chance to escape."
