The "End War" has ended, ending with the defeat of the "Blackbeard Pirates" and the surrender of the "Whitebeard remnants" to the "Davy Jones Pirates".
In more than a year since his rise, Davy Jones has continuously stirred up the situation, defeated many famous figures, and unsurprisingly became the focus of the world.
People began to speculate about how big the appetite of this "King of Hell" is, and who will be his next hunting target?
"Beasts" Kaido?
"Red-haired" Shanks?
Wang Zhi?
"Old Shichibukai"?
Even...the World Government and the Navy Headquarters?
No, no, no, this may be too scary and too illusory.
Even the revolutionary army determined to overthrow the "Celestial Dragons" has accomplished nothing for so many years. How could they, a group of pirates, accomplish such a big thing?
More importantly, the "Celestial Dragons" are the "descendants of the Creator." What would the world be like without them?
Many commentators expressed their uneasiness in editorials and began to urge the Navy Headquarters to do something practical and eliminate the "Davy Jones Pirates".
However, the Navy Headquarters turned a deaf ear to all external comments and was still making small-scale internal changes, recruiting and training new recruits, and replenishing manpower.
Just kidding, if we really follow what those people said, the Navy Headquarters would go head-to-head with the "Davy Jones Pirates" right now, and the best outcome would be to lose both sides.
Time passed by like this little by little.
In mid-July, the "King of Hell" Davy Jones returned to the terrifying ghost island, the center of his vast territory and power, and was preparing to carry out drastic reforms in the power structure again.
Some people may think that "stability" is the most important factor for a separatist power, but Davy Jones does not think so.
Instead, he agreed that it was obviously more important to constantly destroy the sense of comfort and reorganize and divide the intricate factions under his command.
The "pyramid structure" that was reformed before the "Silent War" with Charlotte Lingling, as the "Davy Jones Pirates" grew in power and the enemies changed, it was time to make appropriate changes.
In the eyes of Davy Jones, his pirate group should be like his tentacles, able to change at will, either soft, hard, elongated, or shortened...
He held a quill full of thick ink and wrote a line of words, a circle, or a cross on the yellowed manuscript paper.
He would occasionally call "Sand Crocodile" Crocodile and "Sea Knight" Jinpei to ask for advice.
This took him quite some time.
When Davy Jones was thinking quite intently, he heard a knock on the door of the room.
He knew without looking up that it was "Iron Rod" Arrita.
"Come in."
Arrita walked in, closed the door with her backhand, and then walked to Davy Jones's desk. She held her white bonnet decorated with flowers under her arm and handed over a stack of rolled-up paper with both hands respectfully.
"Captain, this is the latest reward order issued by the Navy Headquarters about us." She said, "Please take a look."
Davy Jones, who has a bounty of 4.7 billion Baileys, is undoubtedly the first living pirate today.
It was precisely because the bounty was so high that it had lost its original meaning. He was not interested in how much more bounties the Navy headquarters had given him.
As long as the bounty does not exceed 5 billion beli, it is just the icing on the cake, just take a casual look.
The only pirates with higher bounties than him in history are "One Piece" Roger with 5.5648 billion beli and "Whitebeard" Newgate with 5.046 billion beli.
Both of them were famous figures before the "Great Pirate Age".
Maybe Rocks also needs to be included, but his existence has been completely covered up by the World Government, otherwise the bounty should be more than 5 billion beli.
As far as the current situation is concerned, the Navy Headquarters will not rashly increase Davy Jones' bounty too much.
They don't want to add another member to the "5 billion bounty club", which will lose the original meaning of the bounty order.
Although it doesn't make much sense now.
After all, considering the bounty offered by the "New Three Emperors", which bounty hunter in the world is so greedy that he dares to hunt them?
Sure enough, Davy Jones briefly looked at the new bounty order and found that his bounty had increased to 4.8 billion beli, which was relatively small.
Compared to the fussy search for Davy Jones's bounty, the Navy Headquarters' bounties for Crocodile and Jinbei were much more generous, each increased by 300 million beli.
As a result, Crocodile's bounty reaches 1.881 billion beli, and Jinbe's bounty reaches 1.638 billion beli.
Even if "Fire Fist" Ace and "Phoenix" Marco and other captains of the "Whitebeard remnants" joined the "Davy Jones Pirates", Crocodile and Jinbe's bounty was still as high as any other.
In this pile of bounty orders, in addition to the three of them, there are also those from Marco, "Death Surgeon" Luo, "Trickster" Crowe and "Qianliang Daohua" Bucky, and they have all increased by 50 million beli.
As a result, Marco's bounty reaches 1.424 billion Baileys, Rod's bounty reaches 820 million Baileys, Crowe's bounty reaches 776 million Baileys, and Bucky's bounty reaches 745 million Baileys.
Although the Navy Headquarters did not say it clearly, it was most likely that they had increased the bounty for this "final battle".
Although Crocodile, Jinbei and Law were not directly involved, their various maritime actions during this period were all noticed by the Navy Headquarters and were very eye-catching.
It is worth mentioning that the reward for "Red Flag" Drake has been removed.
Probably the Navy Headquarters noticed something strange about him and believed that he suffered a "curse" after being exposed and became inhuman and ghost. As a result, there was no point in placing a reward on him.
However, no one tried to rescue Drake, and the "Red Flag" had been abandoned.
Davy Jones quickly skimmed over the bounty orders and then placed them in the corner of his desk.
He raised his head and asked: "Arrita, have you made any progress in collecting information about the 'Don Quixote Family'?"
"I was about to report to you." Arrita said, "After 'Tenyasha' Doflamingo publicly announced that he had joined the 'Beasts Pirates', Violet and I worked intensively with Dres Contact the intelligence personnel of the Rosa Kingdom."
"Violet" Violet reported to Arrita not long ago on Luo's recommendation.
After a period of running-in, Arrita unexpectedly found that Violet was quite comfortable with it.
This "Violet" has a strong intelligence-gathering ability, and her "glaring fruit ability" can always produce unexpected results. The most important thing is that she is very attentive and diligent.
All in all, Arrita likes Violet very much.
"What we know so far is that Doflamingo has become one of Kaido's 'big posters', and his subordinates 'Club' Torrebol and 'Spade' Pika have joined the 'Flying Five' compatriots', and other cadres joined in the 'real fight'."
"At the same time, Jack, one of the 'big posters', 'Drought', personally led the 'Flying Five' siblings Runti and Peggy Wan, as well as several 'True Fighters', to settle in the Kingdom of Dressrosa."
"Doflamingo still has the highest control over the Kingdom of Dressrosa, but all major matters need to be discussed with Jack. Jack has veto power and represents Kaido's opinions."
Davy Jones snorted and shook his head. "Doflamingo was forced by me to lure the wolf into the house, even though he really had no better choice."
