Chapter 740 Daxia Empire

By the time the Straw Hat Pirates completed a circle and returned to Twin Capes, they could no longer recognize it.

[Inverted Mountain] no longer exists, and [Twin Capes] is naturally gone too. It has now become a huge island, serving as a cargo transit station, and trade is very prosperous.

Labu, which has remained here for many years, has become a tourist attraction. Legend has it that anyone who sees Labu will get good luck.

Labu's deeds have spread widely, attracting many people to travel here.

After more than 50 years, Brooke saw Rab again and couldn't help crying.

The [World Government] has perished, the [Red Earth Continent Tunnel] has been fully opened, and ships can travel freely.

The journey of the Straw Hat Pirates came to an end, and Brook got off the ship here.

Afterwards, Chopper, Sanji, Usopp, Zoro, and Luffy also returned to their hometowns.

Jinbe and Franky drove the "Sunny" to the "Seven Water City".

Afterwards, Jinbei embarked on his journey home alone.

Nowadays, the mermen and mermaids no longer need to live under the sea. They have built a new home in the autonomous region planned by Xia Jieren - [New Fishman Island].

The Straw Hat Pirates are temporarily disbanded. They agree to rest for a while before continuing their adventure.

On the way home, Luffy and the others felt that the world had changed a lot.

The originally somewhat simple village has now grown to the size of a town and has become visibly prosperous.

Luffy and his friends warmly welcomed their return.

Time flies and flies by.

In the blink of an eye, half a year has passed since the battle of [Mariejoa].

[Red Earth Continent] no longer exists, and the world now has a geographical structure of five continents and tens of thousands of islands.

There are four continents in the east, south, west and north, and a central continent centered on the original [Marijoa].

In the center of this world, Xia Jieren ordered Kerrigan to recast the Void Throne and build a palace that far surpassed [Marijoa].

The news was not deliberately concealed. After hearing it, many people frowned, thinking that the [Netherlands Kingdom] had a trend of transforming into a [World Government].

However, Xia Jieren's construction of the palace did not bring any adverse effects to the world, so everyone just let it go and wait and see.

Finally, three days ago, the magnificent and majestic [Purple Sky Dragon Palace] was completed.

[Purple Sky Dragon Fault], this is the name given by Xia Jieren.

Zixiao symbolizes mystery and dignity, while Longque refers to the gate of the palace where the dragon lives. The overall implication is that the palace is like a dragon soaring into the sky, with extraordinary momentum.

Xia Jieren looked down at the entire palace complex and was very satisfied: "Kerrigan, get ready. In fifteen days, prepare for the coronation ceremony."

"Yes!"

Now that the palace has been built, Xia Jieren should officially announce the birth of the [Great Xia Empire].

As soon as the news came out, the world was in an uproar.

"I can't wait any longer!"

"Finally... history is about to open a new chapter!"

"..."

People cheered and were full of anticipation.

Many people with decent financial resources rushed to the Central Continent to witness this grand event with their own eyes.

海圆历1526年11月11日，大夏历1年1月1日。

The Central Continent was crowded with people, gathering in front of the altar, waiting for Xia Jieren to appear.

Not long after.

Xia Jieren, wearing a black robe and a crown on his head, walked up to the altar with steady steps.

Offering sacrifices to heaven and ancestors, and announcing the establishment of the Great Xia Empire.

There was a burst of cheers from the audience.

Seeing this scene, Xia Jieren's mouth curled up slightly, and he began to understand why so many people wanted to be emperor.

Afterwards, Xia Jieren entered the [Purple Sky Dragon Palace], sat on the void throne, and received all the guests.

[Straw Hat Pirates]...now called [Straw Hat Adventure Group], former navy generals such as Sengoku and strong people such as Rayleigh.

Allowing them to attend the founding ceremony is also meant to deter them.

After receiving everyone, Xia Jieren was exhausted. He was not physically tired, but mentally exhausted.

"I'm really not suitable for this kind of thing." Xia Jieren sighed.

At this time, Litt, Robin and other girls came together.

"Jieren, you look really handsome today!" Litte praised with a smile.

"Yeah yeah!"

Robin, Nami and other girls echoed.

Hearing this, Xia Jieren smiled bitterly: "Don't praise me, I feel embarrassed. This kind of thing is too tiring, I'll leave it to you in the future, Lit."

"What nonsense are you talking about! You are now the emperor of the Great Xia Empire, how can you be so reckless!" Litte rolled her eyes.

"Then let's leave it to Weiwei. She has also been a queen." Xia Jieren set his sights on Weiwei.

Hearing this, Weiwei quickly waved her hands to refuse: "No! I can't do that!"

Since the [Alabasta Kingdom] was integrated into the [Netherlands Kingdom], Vivi has felt a lot more relaxed and often comes to Xia Jieren's side. After a while, the relationship between Xia Jieren and Vivi is just a natural thing.

The same goes for Rebecca. She often visits her aunt, so how could she run away?

As for women like Tashigi, Ain, Gion, and Tina, we have to mention the unspoken rules of the workplace.

You know what, it’s really full of fun.

Looking at the many beauties in front of him, Xia Jieren's lips curled up.

"What are you grinning about!" Nami leaned closer and asked suspiciously.

Xia Jieren smiled even more and said meaningfully, "I am happy today. Let's celebrate together tonight."

Noticing Xia Jieren's evil smile, the girls seemed to understand something, their cheeks turned red, and after looking at each other for a few times, they became even more embarrassed. They looked at Xia Jieren angrily and said in unison: "Get lost!"

Although the girls refused verbally, their bodies were particularly honest at night.

It is not an option to be dishonest. With Hancock and Baby5 as accomplices and an insider, the women can only obey.

another beautiful day.

……

The next day, Xia Jieren sat on the void throne and yawned in boredom.

The Great Xia Empire was under the overall management of Kerrigan, so Xia Jieren had it very easy.

Suddenly, Xia Jieren frowned, feeling like someone was spying on him.

"Master, this should be an ability related to time and prophecy!"

Xia Jieren nodded slightly, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he said lightly: "The unknown future is more exciting. What's the point of knowing the result now?"

Xia Jieren waved his hand, and Kerrigan immediately understood what Xia Jieren meant, and used the power of the [Fruit of Destiny] to conceal her fate.

Looking down from the upstream of time, everything is hazy.

After the founding ceremony, the Great Xia Empire ushered in even more rapid development.

All industries are booming and basic education is widely popularized.

The former powerful men began to lead a leisurely life, and Kerrigan never relaxed her surveillance of them.

As expected, there are still some people who want to stir up trouble.

Kozuki Momonosuke and Kozuki Sukiyaki frequently go to [Fur Island] in an attempt to seek more power.
