Chapter 740: Qualifications for the Rioting Sea
“I want to take my talent to the sea!”
These are the words spoken by the "Black Emperor" Marshall D. Teach.
It is also a popular phrase in the New World in recent times.
There is never a shortage of talented people in this world, especially in the new world where many heroes compete for supremacy.
There are countless monsters gathered here.
The power disparity in the ocean is very transparent, and there are very few ignorant people.
Even "Moonlight" Moriah began to lie dormant.
Over the years, there have been many strong people who concealed their own edge and slowly accumulated strength.
It's not just the Great Pirate Era, but it has been accumulating since the Legendary Pirate Era and the Rocks Era.
Not emerging does not mean that it does not exist. There are also many who are not very famous or have only a little fame.
Hades knew how terrifying the energy contained in this sea was.
Some forces that only occupy one island should not be underestimated.
The Gallagher family today, the future Don Quixote family, actually only has one island as their territory.
This is actually enough for most forces.
Even some forces that find it difficult to compete in the space of the New World have returned to the first half of the Grand Line through Fishman Island to lie dormant and develop secretly.
The outbreak of the bloody battle led to a significant reduction in the number of pirates in the New World, especially the middle and upper-level pirates.
Coupled with the impact of the Great Pirate Era, this gave these young pirates a huge space to survive.
Now there are several more chaotic sea areas that are not occupied by overlord-level pirates.
I don’t know how many forces have emerged to compete with each other.
It is normal for an island to have seven or eight pirate groups.
A pirate group that can rule a named island is not considered a weakling in the New World.
The Great Pirate Age was an extremely turbulent time.
Especially in the New World, all seas are extremely chaotic and various forces are constantly competing with each other.
Especially the territories outside the top sphere of influence.
Even in those marginal areas, there are people competing and fighting.
The Whitebeard Pirates, for example, often need to send people to deal with, expel, and eliminate those who cause trouble in their territory.
I don’t know how many forces have emerged, and I don’t know how many forces have disappeared silently.
With the naval forces far away from the New World, some pirate groups are unable to obtain bounties even if they have considerable strength.
Because the navy's attention is not on them, unless they really come into the navy's field of vision.
The pirates in the New World are killing each other, which is what the Navy and the World Government want to see.
Since it will go on even without intervention, why bother paying Bailey for a reward?
It's a waste of money.
Although the annual naval expenditure is not small nowadays, it still needs to be carefully calculated.
A larger army, more naval bases, and more naval warships.
Money flows into water.
Therefore, the world conscription will last at least five or six years, maybe longer, or maybe shorter.
In order to better suppress this sea, the four seas are the base of this world government.
The navy needs to recruit up to a million men.
This was the navy's previous goal, but unfortunately it was interrupted by the war.
The Great Pirate Era broke out, the number of pirates increased, and the chaos in the sea gave the navy a large number of manpower.
Things are always relative.
Like the North Sea Navy, they do a good job of suppressing the North Sea and cracking down on pirates.
However, the coverage of the four seas has not yet been completed.
The large number of new recruits requires time to train.
Brand new naval bases need to be built.
All this takes time.
As for truly stabilizing the ocean and reducing the frequency of pirate appearances, this is a long-term goal.
It will take more than ten years.
Even now, the number of pirates is still expanding.
The waves of the new world are surging, but in the eyes of strong men like Hades, no matter how turbulent it is, it is just a small wave.
What is a giant wave?
When it comes to top forces, such as the previous news about the Tyrant Pirates and the Silver Axe Pirates competing against each other, it is a huge wave.
The news that "Tyrant" Zack demonstrated his unparalleled ability to cause natural disasters and attacked the Big Mom Pirates, the Five Peaks Pirates and the Demon King Pirates' headquarters one after another was a huge wave.
Even so, Teach's performance was enough to make others remember his name.
Into the ears of those top monsters.
Teach’s talent is unquestionable.
And he is very young and has gone through excellent training, rather than being a latecomer.
However, this does not mean that Teach is qualified to stand in front of those monsters.
They still don't belong to the same level.
Even standing at the top of the Sky Arena, Teach has not yet grown up.
What is growing up?
Being able to survive the hands of those top monsters can be considered true growth.
To be like "The Hades Serpent" Mobius, who could retreat unscathed even after directly provoking "Whitebeard" Edward Newgate.
Like "Speedy" Ciel, Goenitz, and Gurado, they have proven their strength on the world-class stage.
Without achievements, everything is meaningless.
The current Teach obviously does not have this qualification.
Of course, Teach knew this, and Lubbock knew it even better.
Even if Teach can survive the fierce competition, what about the other members around him?
They are still young and have not grown up yet, and the price they pay for this is totally not worth it.
Thanks to the Sky Arena, Teach's prestige in the New World is even no less than that of big pirates like "Bone Demon" Bone.
It is obviously not a smart move to become the target of public criticism when you don't have enough strength.
When faced with threats, many pirates do not mind forming alliances and joining forces to deal with those who pose the greatest threat.
Therefore, the new Black Emperor Pirates needs enough time to develop.
And Marshall D. Teach also needs to find more outstanding companions around the world to prepare for future hegemony.
The title of Black Emperor thus fell on Teach's head.
This is something they achieved themselves, and is also recognized by outsiders.
Although the navy generally does not give vicious pirates any nice and domineering names.
It's like "Straw Hat Boy", it's so perfunctory.
However, for some more recognized titles, I will not deliberately disgust people.
Especially a monster like Marshall D. Teach who has great potential.
Time will tell whether they are worthy or not.
This also represents Tiqi's absolute confidence in himself.
The name "Black Emperor" undoubtedly represents his ambition.
Just like Gallagher Carr, the title Spider King is the code name he gave himself in the Sky Arena.
