One Piece: From the Rocks Era to King of the World

Chapter 188: Chapter 188 Selling the Ship



"Thank you, husband!"

Looking at the devil fruit in Li Yuan's hand, Yadina didn't act pretentiously and took it and ate it directly.

Since this was given to her by Li Yuan, she naturally would not refuse.

"How about it?"

Li Yuan looked at Yadina and asked curiously.

"Well, it seems that I have become much faster at thinking, and some of the difficult

problems I had before don't seem so difficult anymore."

Yadina tilted her head and thought for a moment before answering.

"Then think about it now. How are you going to deal with my attack next?"

Seeing Yadina's cute and silly expression, Li Yuan seemed to have discovered a new world.

In the past, Yadina was always gentle and virtuous, but now her cute and adorable appearance attracted all his attention.

"My two sisters are still here!"

Seeing Li Yuan's anxious expression, Yadina blushed immediately and looked at Lazili and Xia Qi beside her.

They had never experienced a situation like this, where they were fighting with Li Yuan while their two sisters were watching.

"You guys chat first. Lazili and I will leave first."

Xia Qi looked at Yadina and Li Yuan and immediately wanted to make room for them.

"Don't worry, Xia Qi and Lazili will also join the battle!"

But just when Xia Qi and the others were about to leave, they were stopped by Li Yuan. You know, they have never done this kind of simultaneous multi-person combat before. It was also the first time for Li Yuan to fight one against three.

Even so, with Li Yuan's current physique, plus the free change of the size of the life returned, combined with the various moves he has learned over the years from his previous life, he can still defeat Lazili and the others in the end!

With the birth of the winners of the New World War, the Wuji Pirates and the Feikong Pirates, the other defeated pirate groups fought a war for half a year.

The pattern of the new world was finally settled, and the time came to the year 1489 in the Haiyuan calendar.

The New World Pirates are headed by the Infinity Pirates and the Hiku Pirates. These two pirate groups are the largest, belong to the first tier, and are known as legendary pirate groups.

Although the Roger Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates are individually very powerful, the New World emphasizes dominance, and they are generally judged by the size of the territory they occupy.

In addition, the Roger Pirates were too low-key and had no intention of showing their strength in this new world war, so naturally they were forgotten.

John, Silver Axe, Wang Zhi, Brandon and Wald, who are losers, show signs of uniting.

However, today John contacted Li Yuan once, which was rare.

"Yohahaha, Li Yuan, long time no see!"

John's voice came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi.

"John, why are you contacting me?"

Li Yuan looked at the Den Den Mushi in surprise, which had turned into John's avatar.

"Yohahaha, nothing much, I just feel like we haven't been in touch for a while, so I wanted to come over and ask how you've been doing lately."

John chuckled.

"If you're alright I'll hang up. I don't have time to chat with you!"

Li Yuan lay on the lounge chair, leisurely opened his mouth and ate a grape that Lazili had peeled for him, his eyes still watching Chi Tong and the others who were playing in the water on the beach in front of him.

He was just enjoying the leisurely life after the training, but he didn't expect that John, this unromantic guy, would call him.

If it weren't for the fact that they had worked together before, he wouldn't have answered the call.

"Yohahaha, Li Yuan, you are still so impatient. I told you directly, what do you want in exchange for selling that steel battleship to me?"

"It's not just me who wants this. Wang Zhi, Silver Axe, Brandon, and Walder all want this

too."

"I'm here to talk to you on behalf of the four of them and myself."

John said bluntly.

"Oh? Are you trying to threaten me by saying this?"

"Since you want it, then join forces and come to my Infinite Sea. As long as you can defeat my Infinite Pirates, not to mention the Iron Battleship, you can even take my Hades!"

Li Yuan sneered.

As losers, Silver Axe and Brandon would never attack the Wuji Sea unless Li Yuan forced them into a desperate situation.

If only John, Wang Zhi and Wald came to attack his Wuji Sea, Li Yuan would not be afraid of

them.

Just by listening, he knew that John was exaggerating.

"Yohahahaha, the war in the New World just ended, how could we possibly start a war again."

"We just want to purchase steel battleships in a peaceful way."

"Li Yuan, just tell us what you want in order to sell the Iron Warrior to us. Don't just say perfunctory words because the technology is not mature yet.'

||

John saw that talking big didn't work, so he came clean. They just wanted the steel battleship. "Hahahaha, John, business is business, why are you talking so much?"

"I just can't understand. My steel battleship is just a little stronger than your ship. Why do you

insist on buying it?"

Li Yuan smiled.

"Li Yuan, you are pretending to be ignorant. Everyone in the world knows that your Hades can be driven without sails, and its speed is much faster than that with sails!"

"If we could have such a steel battleship, we could directly cross the Calm Belt from the New

World to plunder the four seas!"

John said through gritted teeth.

As losers, their territory in the New World is much smaller than that of the Wuji Pirates and

the Hiku Pirates.

A smaller territory means less protection fees received.

If they want to get more territory, they can only rob it, but they can't beat the Hiku Pirates and the Wuji Pirates, and they can't defeat other big pirates either.

If this continues, the Hiku Pirates and the Wuji Pirates will slowly distance themselves from them due to their territorial advantage.

After seeing Li Yuan's Hades, they saw an opportunity to cross the Calm Belt and enter the Four Seas without the need for the Golden Lion's abilities.

The Four Seas are much larger and richer than the New World, and are regarded as a back garden and wealth base by the world government and navy.

When they went to plunder the West Sea with Rocks, they realized how rich the four seas were.

So John suddenly had an idea and came up with this idea.

As for the sea kings in the calm belt, they are not a problem at all for these powerful pirates who possess the domineering aura.

"So that's what you were thinking. However, you should know that to build a ship like the Iron Battleship, you need a lot of steel and ore."

"There are other shipbuilding materials. I think there are a lot of these resources on your

territory."

After hearing John's words, Li Yuan's eyes lit up.

It seems possible to drive these pirates to plunder the world, as long as we provide them with

ships that can cross the doldrums.

The New World is only half of the Grand Line, and its territory is very small. Compared with the oceans of the entire world, the New World is a remote place.

But it was in this remote place that many of the world's most powerful people were born, and the World Government wanted to lock these top powers who did not submit to them in the New World with the help of the Calm Belt.

As long as these pirates cannot leave the New World, they will not be able to cause any shake

to the foundation of the World Government, and the World Government will always be

invincible.

Li Yuan was looking forward to what kind of chaos would occur in this world once the Calm Belt was unable to restrain the great pirates of the New World.

"What resources do you want? Give us a list and we can sell them to you at normal prices."

John said directly that he knew that if he wanted to buy the steel battleship, he would have to pay something, and as long as Li Yuan did not ask for too much, they would agree to it.

"No, John, not the normal price, but a price thirty percent lower than the normal price."

Li Yuan said with a smile.

If you don't make money, you're a bastard. He won't buy it at the normal price. Anyway, he is not begging them. Normal business strikes are still necessary, otherwise he would be

unworthy of his profession as a pirate.

"30%? Impossible, at most 20%!"

Hearing Li Yuan's direct and loud words, John couldn't help but swear.

"Okay, 20% is 20%! If you want to get the steel battleship quickly, then quickly send all the

materials to Thomas Island in the Wuji Sea."

"You guys discuss the specific order matters among yourselves, and then contact the person

in charge of Thomas Island."

Li Yuan said.

"Yohahaha, Li Yuan, I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation!"

"But Li Yuan, you shouldn't tell anyone that we are going to plunder the four seas."

Hearing Li Yuan's words, John burst into laughter.

"John, look at what you said. After all, I am a pirate, how could I possibly reveal it to others?"

"Besides, I have to thank you. You gave me an interesting suggestion. The New World is too small, but the Four Seas are very large and rich."

Li Yuan also laughed. After that, he hung up the phone directly, not wanting to continue

chatting with John.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Li Yuan, are John and his men really going to plunder the world?"

Yadina next to her asked curiously.

"That should be the case. Now the central and front parts of the New World are occupied by

our Wuji Pirates and Feikong Pirates, so they don't need to worry about harassment from the navy."

"But at the same time, it also prevented them from expanding their territory. If they wanted more wealth, they could only quietly collect protection fees from their territory and develop

commercial trade."

"But as pirates, they rarely know how to develop commercial trade, so choosing to plunder

the world is also a way out."

Li Yuan said.

"Is that so? Then I'll arrange it and have the people at Thomas Shipyard build a ship for

them."

Yadina nodded.
