Chapter 312 News about Rocks

When everyone heard Long say that the World Government could actually mass-produce Admirals, they were all shocked and widened their eyes. Their faces were filled with disbelief, their mouths slightly open, as if they had lost the ability to speak for a moment.

After all, the admirals were the ceiling of the sea. In this vast sea world, the admirals' names were as loud as thunder, and they were the top symbol of naval power.

Each general is like a god of war, possessing extraordinary strength. Their power is enough to scare ordinary pirates and make the residents of various islands feel awe.

Whether it is the swordsmanship that shakes the world, the ability of the fruit that destroys the world, or the unfathomable domineering, they are not the heights that ordinary people can reach. They stand at the pinnacle of the navy's power and strength, like a lighthouse on the sea, guiding the direction of the navy and announcing the navy's powerful deterrent power to the pirates.

Long looked at the shocked, confused and worried expressions of the crowd, took a deep breath, as if to temporarily dispel the heaviness in his heart, and then continued: "We also heard a piece of news that the World Government has recruited a super strong man." Long's voice was particularly clear in the silent atmosphere, and every word struck everyone's heart heavily.

"Super strong?" Roger tilted his head slightly when he heard Long's words, his eyes full of confusion. His weather-beaten face wrinkled a few lines, and his eyebrows twisted together slightly.

In his understanding, he had heard of most of the strong men on the sea, and the World Government already had many powerful forces. Now it had recruited a so-called "super strong man", which made him start to think, who is this strong man? And what kind of terrifying strength does he have?

The others also looked solemn when they heard Long's words. In this ocean world full of dangers and challenges, any new changes could cause huge waves.

The mass production of admiral-level warriors is already big news that is enough to overturn the existing balance, and now the World Government has recruited another strong man who can be mentioned after him, which means that this person's strength is probably beyond imagination and is by no means ordinary strong.

It was a feeling of oppression that seemed to freeze the air. Everyone's expressions became more serious, and their eyes revealed deep worry.

"You also know this person." Long looked at Whitebeard, Roger and others and said. His eyes were deep and calm, like a bottomless lake, but under that calmness was his awareness of the seriousness of the news. Long's voice echoed in the silent environment, and every word was like a heavy hammer hitting everyone's heart.

Whitebeard and Roger looked at each other after hearing what Long said. When their eyes met, it seemed as if countless thoughts were flowing through them. It was a tacit communication, and confusion, shock, and a hint of subtle worry could be seen in each other's eyes.

Whitebeard's thick white eyebrows trembled slightly, and his mountain-like body seemed to become even more tense because of this news. Roger narrowed his eyes slightly, and his eyes became sharper, as if he wanted to penetrate the fog in front of him and find the mysterious strong man hiding behind.

Ling Tian guessed something when he heard Long's words. His eyes widened slightly, and a look of realization flashed in his eyes.

Some fragments of memory flashed through his mind quickly. Those past experiences, the legends he had heard, and his understanding of the various conspiracies of the World Government all gave him a strong premonition at this moment. He pursed his lips slightly, his expression became more serious, and he secretly thought about the huge impact this news would have on them.

As expected, Long's next words confirmed Ling Tian's guess. When Long said that name, it was as if an electric current passed through the air, and the whole atmosphere became more tense and depressing.

"He is your captain - Rocks Gibek." Long's voice was calm and steady, but this sentence was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, causing a thousand waves.

"What!" Whitebeard, Kaido, and Roger all said in unison when they heard what Long said. Whitebeard's already majestic face was now full of shock and disbelief, his eyes widened, and the wine jug in his hand almost slipped because of this sudden shock.

He could never have imagined that the old captain, the person who should have disappeared in the long river of history, would appear in this world again and be recruited by the World Government.

Kaido's huge body also shook violently, his expression was as if he had seen a ghost, in his eyes there was not only shock but also a hint of deep fear. The experience on Rocks' ship that year flashed through his mind like a slide show, he knew very well how powerful and cruel Rocks was.

Roger's reaction was no less than that. He frowned, his eyes full of doubt and vigilance. He was constantly thinking about how Rocks' appearance would bring about earth-shaking changes to the entire ocean situation.

"That's impossible. Rocks has been killed by Garp and I." Roger was the first to stand up and categorically disagree with Long's words. His eyes were firm and unquestionable, and his mind kept recalling the thrilling battle in the Valley of the Gods.

In that battle, he fought side by side with Garp. Facing the extremely powerful Rocks, they went through countless hardships and obstacles and almost exhausted all their strength to defeat him.

The battle scene at that time was still vivid in their minds, and the scene of Rocks falling in front of them seemed to be just yesterday. Although Rocks' body was taken away by others in the end, Roger was sure that Rocks had been killed by the fatal blow he and Garp had given him.

His voice echoed in the air, with absolute confidence in his own judgment.

"We don't believe it either, but according to the information we received, that person is Rocks." Long's expression was very calm, as if he had expected to encounter such questioning.

He slowly swept his eyes over the crowd, knowing that everyone's resistance to the news was due to their belief in past facts. After all, Rocks' death was already an established fact in everyone's mind, and now that he suddenly appeared again, no one would be able to accept it.

Long had long guessed that everyone would have this reaction. When he got this information, he himself had a brief moment of doubt and shock. But after multiple investigations and verifications, all the clues pointed to the mysterious strong man being the former Rocks Gibeck.

He knew that it would not be easy to get everyone to accept this fact and that he needed more evidence and explanation.

"Chief Long is right, that man is indeed Rocks." Ling Tian saw the expressions of the crowd, took a deep breath and spoke. His eyes revealed a complex emotion, both the helpless acceptance of this fact and the worry about the unknown dangers that were about to be faced.

He had been on Rocks' ship before and had a deep memory of Rocks's powerful strength. Now that Rocks appeared again, he was well aware of the huge crisis behind it.

When other people saw Ling Tian talking, they looked at him curiously. They didn't understand why Ling Tian was so sure, after all, it was well known that Roger and Garp defeated Rocks.

Long was also a little curious.
