Gawain stood on the bow of the Blackbird and gently raised his right hand.
"set sail."
He said a brief sentence, and nearly 600,000 people aboard and on board the Black Bird began to move!
Pulling up the anchor, turning on the power, the soldiers raised their weapons one after another, some raised their guns, some raised their swords.
Even the ordinary service staff put their right hands on their plump chests at this moment.
Their eyes were sincere and blurred, and they kept chanting the word "Sail" silently in their hearts.
And this is the change that Gawain has brought to the Black Bird in the past two months.
To put it more complicatedly, a war with a massacre nature, almost destroying the country, made Gawain's fear in others continue to increase.
To put it simply, it is...the emperor's power is too great!
Feeling the slow movement of the ship, Gao Wen pursed his lips indifferently and looked into the distance expectantly.
Noticing Gawain's movements, Gion and Hancock, whose hair was shaped into a woman's bun, gently held Gawain's arms.
Just listen to Gion whispering.
"Sir, now that we're going to Mariejoia, shouldn't it be time to start an era that truly belongs to us?"
"Of course."
Gawain nodded, his smile gradually deepening.
It has been a full year and nine months since I came to this world.
I finally took the most important step!
At this moment, as time continues to increase, materials from all over the world have been gradually mobilized and improved.
At the same time, at least more than sixty sections of sea trains in different directions are under construction!
This number is still increasing, and it is expected that it will not be until two years later that the production capacity is too low to expand the scale.
But at that time, what the Black Bird needed was still not resources, because the resources in this world were too abundant.
As long as you are willing to put in the effort, it will be almost impossible for resources to become scarce in a short period of time.
By then, what Gawain will probably lack will be direct wealth such as money, which is the way to continue mobilizing global resources.
so…….
Gawain always takes a look at the information related to Tezolo in his free time recently.
That guy is getting fatter and fatter, so we'll just wait two years before we give him a good chop!
In addition to economy, what Gawain lacked even more was military strength.
Note that military strength is not just about the number of strong men.
In the world of One Piece, the number of strong men determines the direction of the war. The side with more strong men is almost impossible to lose, while the side with less strong men can only win by cheating and exploding seeds.
But the military is different from war. The military strength Gawain needs is not just the soldiers needed for war.
His vocabulary also includes a series of important personnel such as the public security organs, prosecutors, and law enforcement agencies.
In other words, Gawain lacks enough police officers to supervise the entire Grand Line, and lacks enough practitioners to spread the laws and regulations of the Blackbird system.
Let's put it this way, Gawain lacks civil servants.
There is also a lack of troops stationed in various places!
Gawain, who has yet to fully stand on the stage, cannot yet completely unfurl his own banner and start a war against many kingdoms in the new world.
Therefore, the way he ruled the countries along the Grand Line could only imitate the United States today.
In fact, he could not even imitate Britain because he did not have the political status to make the country a colony.
In short, he wants to recruit troops, a large number of troops!
therefore…….
Gawain sets his sights on the starting point of the Great Route!
After he completely blocked the Grand Line, tons of pirates were destined to be stopped by them every year.
At that time, we will try our best to recruit those pirates and give them a more meaningful job and life.
Therefore, in Gawain's plan, at least one gentle and attractive monster must be placed at the starting point of the Grand Line to control the situation.
There is no doubt that Rayleigh got the job. In the next two years, the old man will personally sit at the starting point of the Great Line as the second-in-command of the Black Bird.
They didn't intend to give the pirates any chance, so they simply expanded the lighthouse in Culokas.
While it will be transformed into a great maritime train route and a four-sea link terminus, it will also become a secondary headquarters and troop transfer center for the Blackbird Alliance Army.
Of the nearly 350,000 veteran warriors on board the Black Bird, at least 150,000 will stay at the entrance to the new world. Each of them will become at least one squad leader in the future, and at the same time, one person will lead nine people.
Expand the Black Bird's troop strength to more than twenty times.
Of course, although Rayleigh was rich in experience, he ultimately lacked a bit of sinisterness and ruthlessness.
This old man is getting older and has a senior mentality. Especially towards the little pirates, he has a playful mentality.
In order to prevent Rayleigh from being trapped by too many newcomers, he also let too many newcomers go.
Gawain arranged for Crocodile and Zefa to be stationed together, and also handed over the three brothers Ace, Sabo and Luffy to Rayleigh.
Rayleigh was Ace's godfather, so it was just right for him to discipline them. Zephyr also felt that the complex environment near the Upside Down Mountain was more suitable for him to discipline new students.
By the way, Zefa's deep hatred for pirates also destined him to be much more cruel and thorough in this job than Rayleigh.
At the same time, the existence of Old Yin Beep (silenced)... the master of strategy Crocodile also ensures that the vicinity of the Upside Down Mountain will not be surrounded by too many conspiracies of the kings of the four seas.
With this lineup, Gawain asked himself that even if the Yonko Pirates came in, they would not be defeated easily.
Not to mention the young pirates from all over the world.
Come to think of it, Crocodile and Zefa had no problem matching the big signboard.
After Ace got Prometheus, his strength continued to increase, and he was already at the level of a regular imperial deputy. Yamato may not be his opponent.
Although Sabo didn't eat the fruit, his strength gradually increased after experiencing Zefa's teachings.
As for Luffy, haha, his reputation as the Son of Destiny is in vain. He is already in second gear now, and third gear is probably not far away!
With such a lineup leading the millions of soldiers that are expected to expand within a year, even if they gather one of the world's most powerful forces to attack, they will not lose for a while.
The Vinsmoke family also unified the Western Sea for a period of time.
Although it is impossible for the team led by Rayleigh to fight against an entire sea, if they just resist, they will not be easily defeated no matter what.
In addition to Upside Down Mountain, Gawain also left a large number of troops in Alabasta.
Alabasta's geographical location is approximately in the middle of the Grand Route. At this time, Alabasta is also developing a sea train plan to connect the Grand Route horizontally.
That’s right!
The Grand Line does indeed have routes, and the fierce ocean currents do not allow the vast majority of ships to cross the routes and sail between different routes at will.
But the sea train is not that troublesome. Frankie said that it is not a problem at all.
Faced with a tsunami thousands of meters high, the sea train has no problem.
Can the strong currents still stump us?
Therefore, Yixiao led Shiliu and Doflamingo to station in Alabasta.
They will preside over the construction of the horizontal sea train in the future, so as to bloom from the midpoint and radiate the influence of the Black Bird to the entire great sea route as quickly as possible.
Of course, it couldn't be just three people who did this. The three of them also brought most of their subordinates with them.
For example, the Baroque Studio in Crocodile.
Or perhaps Doflamingo's family power.
There is also the Black Ice Platform of Robluqi, which is also mainly stationed in the middle section of the Grand Route.
The functions of these three organizations are all biased towards espionage investigation and covert agencies.
Although they do not belong to the same division, the work of integrating the Grand Line cannot be completed by individual divisions.
You have to keep up with the logistics, right?
Therefore, although the captains were stationed separately, the thirteen divisions were actually split into three parts, and were placed respectively with the Upside Down Mountain, Alabasta, and Shampoo Fishman Island as the centers.
In addition, since Yixiao and others are mainly operational agencies, their overall job is to investigate the chaotic situation in the countries within the Grand Line and intervene as appropriate.
Therefore, there were not many soldiers sent to them.
There are only about 70,000 people. Although this number will increase, it is still the smallest in size.
As for the remaining approximately 180,000 troops, there are also all the remaining strong men.
Ah.
Gawain personally led Gion and Mihawk to suppress the Chambord Islands and Fishman Island!
Compared with the Four Seas and the Grand Line, the New World is too powerful, really too powerful!
You know, in the new world, even miscellaneous soldiers are likely to have at least one color of Haki.
If it were the Grand Line, not one person in ten thousand might know the domineering power!
Luffy, who was in third gear, couldn't even penetrate the defense of Kizaru's little fat guy.
Although the little fat guy's strength is pretty good, there is no doubt that Luffy does not understand that armed sex is the true meaning.
People who are domineering will fight people who are not domineering. It can almost be compared to the Straw Hats two years later fighting the Straw Hats two years ago.
It is no exaggeration to say that they will win quite easily two years from now. Zoro from two years from now can even kill Luffy from two years ago in minutes...
Therefore, the main military strength of the Black Bird is used to deal with possible impacts from the New World.
After all, without a steady stream of pirates to serve as new blood, all walks of life in the new world would suffer heavy losses.
At that time, when the order to block the Grand Line was first announced, the pirates in the New World might not have any opinions.
But wait until two or three years later, when they truly realize the importance of new blood.
By that time, even if Gawain, Newgate and Shanks reach an agreement, there will definitely be a battle between them!
Because the remaining Three Pirate Emperors are, in the final analysis, the three spokespersons for the pirate industry!
Whitebeard does not want to fight, but can all his sons accept future losses?
If they can, can Blackbeard?
If Blackbeard can do it, can Whitebeard's fleet do it?
If Red Hair can do it, can the kingdom where he collects taxes?
Not to mention, although the Three Pirate Emperors are powerful, the New World is really not theirs.
The water in this world is very deep, and there are always some people who are not outstanding, but their strength is not even worse than that of the Four Emperors!
How did Huzi become the Yonko?
Because he and Kebi solved Honeycomb Island together and occupied Honeycomb Island, he truly sat on the throne of the Four Emperors!
Who controlled such a good place before him?
Rocks' man, Captain John!
After all, Rocks is only a child of the times for a few decades. In the past eight hundred years, there may be many stubborn forces entrenched in the most dangerous new world.
Of course, even if the new world is dangerous, Gawain feels that he, Gion and Mihawk can completely defend it.
But they not only have to guard against the new world, they also have to guard against...Marie Joa above them!
You know, although most of the navy secretly defected to Gawain.
Except for the Warring States generation, almost all the three great generals in the new era were Gao Wen's men.
But the ultimate master of Gawain is only one generation, and there are two generations above them!
The combat power of Sengoku and Garp has not weakened much yet. At this point in time, there are still four years before Luffy becomes the fifth emperor.
Four years later, Garp landed on Beehive Island and punched out an overlord-colored black flash that was hundreds of meters away!
With this kind of domineering look, she might even be able to compete with the redhead for the most domineering look.
Four years later, he would have such fighting power, let alone him now.
Even with Kaido's physique, Mihawk's swordsmanship, Thunder's speed and Gawain's own overlord quality.
Gawain doesn't even think that he can definitely beat Garp now.
After all, although he has a lot, the time he has is too short. He still needs to grow, grow rapidly!
With Garp's combat power, although Sengoku is weaker than Garp, it's not too much weaker.
There are also special characters like Crane in the navy of the same generation, and their strength cannot be underestimated!
But that’s not the key, the key is that the steel frame is empty!
!
This old guy is obviously the teacher of Garp and Sengoku, and he is almost a hundred years old now.
But he looks younger than Garp!
Although he has not asked the Five Old Stars, Gawain is very suspicious that for special outstanding individuals, the Five Old Stars must have used the means of immortality as an incentive.
Are all Cyborg Kong's contemporaries really dead?
Did Cyborg Kongzhen become the last old-era navy and serve as the commander-in-chief of the three armed forces as a remnant of the era?
What's more, although the three current generals of the Navy are able to help.
But when they faced a series of seniors such as Garp, their combat power would naturally be cut in half.
Garp and the others are not Zefa, and they will be treated specially by their disciples.
Facing the elders who have committed no crimes, it is impossible for the three current generals to use their full strength.
In addition, Vegapunk's plans continue to unfold, and the Pacifists continue to deepen and strengthen.
Coupled with Yin Mu, who is above the Five Old Stars, Gawain still doesn't know what kind of trump card she holds.
For various reasons, Gawain had to regard the Five Old Stars as his imaginary enemy.
Now he believes that Wulaoxing will not be his enemy, and those elders love him very much.
But what about Yoon Mu?
Gao Wen didn't know if one day he would suddenly become a picture of Yin Mu piercing him.
He didn’t know if he would become the light that Yin Mu wanted to extinguish!
Therefore, Gawain not only put all his combat power in Chambord, he also planned the next reinforcement work.
Next, he is going to see Barrett, he is going to find the green bull, and he is going to take Bai Xing to have a good talk with the Elephant Lord.
However, although those things are urgent, they are not particularly urgent.
In Gawain's heart, his most urgent matter at the moment is...
He can no longer stand a door that opens a small gap!
Although there are still many things to do in the future, now is Gawain's rare respite.
No matter what, he must bring Kaido's leadership and strength.
