Pirates: Your Emperor is Back!

The alliance of pirates is the "Pirate Alliance"!

The so-called pirate alliance, as the name suggests, is an alliance between pirate groups to achieve a certain purpose.

This seems to be a very efficient and reasonable method, but it is not.

The vast majority of pirates are not "good guys" in the conventional sense, so in the pirate alliance, the goals they want to achieve are often different...

No.

Strictly speaking, the "first purpose" of most pirates is surprisingly the same.

——That is "self-interest"!

The pirates in the alliance often look for anything that is good for themselves in their actions, and work hard to push the entire alliance to develop in a direction that is beneficial to them.

As a result, the seemingly indestructible pirate alliance was essentially a loose operation that collapsed at the first moment, and could not create any waves at all.

…

Of course, this is just "most" situations.

The key to the problem is that those "very few" pirate alliances are alliances in the true sense.

The pirates participating in the alliance have clear goals and equal strength, and there is no possibility of betrayal in person.

By that time, the "Pirate Alliance" of that level will become one of the most unstable factors in the sea!

This is a situation that the world government, navy, and even other pirates don't want to see!

Of course, this naturally includes the messenger from Alabasta.

…

The messenger has served in Alabasta's army for many years and has much wider knowledge than ordinary people.

It was precisely because of this that he was so shocked by what Rowan just said!

"Who said that the only 'alliance' on the sea is the Four Seas Alliance?"

"Pirates... can also form alliances..."

——Rowan said slowly while sorting out the models of various forces on the sand table.

Of course, the messenger would not think that his ancestor was playing tricks, because he had never seen Ryan Rowan with such a frown on his face.

All along, the [Golden Dawn] Ryan Rowan gave others the impression of a smiling and kind expression.

When facing the enemy, Ryan Rowan will show a terrifying dominance that is almost crushing, but even so, he is still very at ease during the battle.

The messenger had participated in the battle in the Devil's Triangle.

Even when facing the legendary pirate - [Golden Lion] Shiji, Rowan still had that smiling expression, as if everything was under his control.

…

Of course, it is indeed "as if".

Because after defeating the Golden Lion, successfully connecting with the fish-man Tom and the [Devil's Son] Nico Robin, and then returning to the ship, Rowan had already shown a certain degree of fatigue.

Indeed, [Golden Dawn] Ryan Rowan is a legend above the sea, but [Golden Lion] Shiji is not the same?

A "legend" is a "legend" after all. It will not fade because of the long history, but at the same time, it will not become greater because of time.

"Legend" is not a fine wine!

All in all, the battle between the two legends of the sea really amazed everyone watching.

…

Time returns to the present.

The messenger saw Rowan's frown.

The other party's eyes were fixed on the sand table in front of him, as if he was thinking about something.

"Do not move."

Rowan suddenly spoke and said to the messenger: "Tell the garrison troops in various places in Alabasta to stay still and continue their defensive tasks!"

"yes!"

Today's messenger is still full of confusion, but after the conversation with Rowan just now, he can't help but feel a layer of fog in his heart.

…

In fact, in the mind of the messenger, the whole incident was actually very "simple".

The Four Seas Alliance killed the Don Quixote family.

The Don Quixote family has a deal with the Beast Pirates.

The Four Seas Alliance indirectly destroyed the deal between the Beast Pirates and the Don Quixote family, causing the Beast Pirates to suffer huge losses or completely disrupt their plans.

Therefore, the Beast Pirates will launch revenge against the Four Seas Alliance.

Kaido, the captain of the Beast Pirates, is a crazy pirate.

He did not choose other indirect means to retaliate against the Four Seas Alliance, but directly launched a large-scale war against Alabasta!

——It’s over.

It's that simple.

At least the messengers—and even most of the people who stayed in Alabasta to participate in this defense war—think so.

But now, Luo Wen's words have provided another possibility for the messenger.

This battle surrounding Alabasta does not seem to be as simple as it seems!

…

The messengers conveyed Rowan's orders to all parts of Alabasta through telephone bugs.

Such a strange order naturally puzzled many soldiers.

Guarding the Murloc Village are the warriors of the Murloc Tribe and the current King of Alabasta, Kobra himself.

The king could have entered a safe undersea refuge to escape the war, but he chose to stay here to witness the end of the war.

At this moment, the other soldiers were extremely confused about Rowan's order.

Even in the Fishman Village, these soldiers can still feel the strong presence of Rapeseed Flowers in the port city!

The kind of breath that people couldn't ignore came from afar, making the soldiers unable to take their eyes away.

"We...really don't want to go to support?"

The fishmen soldiers hesitated.

Relying on the characteristics of the fishmen themselves, the soldiers of the fishmen will gain extremely strong mobility in the sea.

Therefore, even if they travel far by sea and land, the fishmen warriors should be the first batch of reinforcements to arrive.

This is also the main reason why the warriors of the murloc tribe are only stationed in their own murloc village.

They are not selfish, but are completely confident that they can rush to the battlefield as soon as the battle breaks out!

But now, because of Rowan's order, these murloc warriors who had already prepared for support were unable to take action at all.

"Mr. Rowan..."

The fishmen warriors are waiting.

"Lord Ancestor..."

Kobra, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, was thinking.

Why did the ancestor do this?

Cobra narrowed his eyes and began to think about Rowan's intentions.

As the king of a country, Kobra certainly understands the so-called "balance".

Therefore, he is also thinking, since Rowan has shown enough strength to deal with the Beast Pirates, why does the World Government arrange for the navy to come here to intervene?

Does the World Government really want to defeat the Beast Pirates?

No, if that is the case, the balance of power on the sea will be broken in an instant!

Could it be that... there is another force planning to intervene in this war surrounding Alabasta? !

If this is the case, it can only be a force at the same level as one of the "Four Emperors"...

An unpleasant feeling came to Kobra's heart.

Almost at the same time, bursts of singing came to the ears of Kobra and everyone present.

——Is that a children’s song?
