New World, Red Leaf Island.
In the port area, warships gathered, flags were flying, and teams of fully armed soldiers belonging to the Kingdom's naval organization boarded the warships.
War is coming!
The residents of the island and some reporters watched this scene with surprised expressions and talked a lot.
Ren suddenly turned his back and wanted to attack Auntie, which was somewhat beyond everyone's expectations.
The United Kingdom of Lionheart has always been at peace with Totland of All Nations, and there has been no conflict between the two.
There are even rumors that Big Mom once wanted to betroth Charlotte Smoothie to Renn and recruit him as her son-in-law. Although this matter has not been followed up, people in the New World generally believe that the relationship between the bloodthirsty swordsman and Big Mom is reluctant. Not too bad.
This is some evidence. When the Lionheart Kingdom holds important ceremonies such as proclaiming the emperor and conferring honors, Big Mom will send their children to attend, which can be regarded as supporting them.
However, there are no eggs, and the boat of friendship still capsizes at this time.
Everyone can't help but lament that there is really no friendship at all between countries, or between maritime overlords and maritime overlords...
"Why does His Majesty Ren suddenly want to attack Big Mom?"
Some people looked at the lively scene of war mobilization in the dock area and were confused.
Such scenes of large armies gathering are still rare, because there has not been a major war since the establishment of the Lion Heart Kingdom.
"I'm not sure, but the Big Mom Pirates are probably going to Onigashima to support the Beasts Pirates. The Kingdom sent its navy to intercept her fleet, probably to help Kuji." Someone speculated.
"Then why is Your Majesty Ren helping the Pirate Empress? I haven't heard of any friendship between them."
"Perhaps the empress asked for help from His Majesty Ren."
There was a middle-aged reporter who specialized in writing gossip news. He didn't know what he was thinking about. A greasy smile appeared on his face and he said with a lewd expression, "That is the most gorgeous beauty in the world. Her Majesty Ren is still young and cannot control her." It’s normal to live there.”
The demon king sends troops, the price of physical repayment, the fall and fall of the empress of the sea... He has already written the outline in his mind.
Someone suddenly realized what he said and said with a smile:
"Hehehe... When you say that, I seem to understand everything."
"I understand too. It's so heartbreaking. My future wife is about to fall into the clutches of the devil. I hate His Majesty Ren and I have no sworn relationship with him!"
"Get out of my way, I will urinate yellow and wake him up."
"..."
The melon-eaters had nothing to do, were noisy, and came up with all kinds of imaginative jokes.
From time to time, there would be people vying for the identity of the empress's husband, and they would become so noisy that they would almost roll up their sleeves and get into a fight.
The residents of Hongye Island are probably the most nourishing group of people in the New World Sea. They are all in good spirits. After work, they are most interested in all kinds of gossip.
………
In the palace, in the study room of the side hall.
Ren spread his hands and sat on a chair. There were several books and a pile of documents on the mahogany table, and a dark group of people stood in front of him.
"...That's all I have to say. This time I'm going to beat up the Big Mom Pirates in the waters of Ferolek. At least I'm going to beat that fat woman Lingling until she can't take care of herself. Do you understand?"
"Understood!"×n
Fujitora, Rob Luqi, Wen Xi, Yu Zhiliu and others responded in unison, their voices sonorous and powerful.
Seeing that the boss had finished his lecture, Wen Xi came over and said with a playful smile:
"Boss, why are you helping the empress this time? Is there some py deal?"
Upon hearing this question, everyone pricked up their ears and stared at Renn curiously.
To be honest, this battle was a bit inexplicable. The Big Mom Pirates didn't come to provoke the kingdom, but His Majesty said he would fight them.
If there was no py transaction between His Majesty and the empress, they really wouldn't believe it.
Facing everyone's gaze, Ren put his hands on the table and said calmly:
"Are you curious?"
"Isn't that right? The empress is the most beautiful woman in the world."
Wen Xi rubbed his hands and said with a lewd smile, "Who wouldn't want to kiss Fangze if you have the chance? I understand, boss, that you can't help but fall into her beauty trap."
Renn: (乛_乛), only a clever little guy like you knows a lot.
He sighed and said, "Don't mess around. The relationship between me and her is pure friendship. I helped her out of appreciation for her."
"Huh--"
"cut!"
"There is a pure friendship between men and women."
Everyone booed, and some people looked disdainful because they didn't want to give the boss face.
Renn: "..."
Standing behind him, Reijiudai, who was squeezing his shoulders and patting his back, raised her eyebrows, unconsciously exerted force on her fingers, and said coldly:
"As a king, just for the sake of winning a beauty, he starts a war at the expense of people and money... Is this considered a debauched and foolish king?"
Renn: "..."
The smell of vinegar...is overwhelming.
"Forget it!" Stussy covered Cherry's little mouth, snickered, and made up for it.
"Boss, men are true to their true nature, but you can't be easily fooled by beauty."
Wen Xi had a serious look on his face and said with concern for the country and the people, "In order to prevent the king from being obsessed with beauty and harming the country and people, I, Wen Xi, am willing to bear all the sins. From now on, leave the empress's communication phone to me!"
Renn: "..."
Everyone: "..."
(?_?;)
"alright."
Ren rolled his eyes. He knew that everyone was worried that he would be used by the Empress to become a swordsman, so he confessed some secrets and said, "As long as we help Nine Snakes this time, the Empress promises that she will help Nine Snakes afterwards." All the territory we own in the New World will be given to the Kingdom.”
In fact, the entire Kuja Pirates and even the Amazon Lily Kingdom will be merged into the Lion Heart Kingdom.
However, this matter is too big. The merger of the two powerful imperial groups cannot be completed overnight. Both parties need to be given some time to digest and prepare mentally.
To avoid unnecessary friction and turbulence, it is best to proceed step by step.
"I see, those eight islands controlled by Nine Snakes? Do they count as the Kingdom of Wano? If the Empress conquers them."
"Even if there is no Wano Country, to be fair, the reward given by Kuja is not low. It is just to intercept the Big Mom Pirates."
Reijiu crossed her arms and sneered: "As long as you get paid, I'm just worried that someone will have a sperm in his head and be treated like a monkey by the empress, Bichi."
Renn: "..."
Could this be the difference between girls and women? She wasn't so jealous before sleeping with him...
Everyone: "..."
The king seemed to be having sex outside, and the queen was unhappy.
"Ahem."
Ren coughed lightly and didn't want to talk about it anymore. He looked at his life, Yamato, Rob Lucci, the Ice Witch and the swordsman Marcel, as well as Yongji, Niji and Iji, the three brothers of Germa 66 Waiting for others, he said, "You can attack now. You can only succeed and not fail... Are there any questions?"
Everyone shook their heads and prepared to leave. Only Yamato hesitated for a moment.
"Yamato?"
Renn looked at the girl who had changed into a white military uniform and looked heroic, with an inquiring look on her face.
It’s not surprising that Yamato stayed in the Lionheart Kingdom. She had nowhere to go and didn’t know where to go. Moreover, the area near Whitebeard’s hometown, Sphinx Island, was considered an autonomous territory of the kingdom. She could wait until she stayed in the kingdom. Friend "Fire Fist" Ace returns.
Yamato looked at Ren, hesitated, and said:
"Ren, why don't you take action yourself? With your strength, you can defeat the expedition fleet of the Big Mom Pirates alone... In this way, there will be no casualties among the Kingdom's navy soldiers and there will be no damage to the fleet. "
As soon as she said this, the study became quiet, and many people looked at each other in confusion.
There is no doubt about the strength of the boss. One person can destroy the country and wipe out an imperial group.
If he took action personally, the warships and soldiers would not suffer any losses or casualties.
Dangdang~
Before Ren could reply, Yisheng stood up and tapped the floor tile twice with his staff knife, attracting the attention of the audience.
The blind uncle opened his eyes, revealing the horrifying whites of his eyes, and said in a deep voice:
"Lieutenant General Yamato, this old man can answer you, because I once asked Your Majesty this question. As an unprecedented swordsman, he can dominate and dominate the world by himself, so why should he establish a country?
Gods will kill gods if they stand in their way, and Buddhas will kill if they stand in the way of Buddha. Isn’t it enough to just kill the world by one person? "
Yamato was startled and said: "So..."
Fujitora smiled slightly and said: "He answered that at first it was because he wanted to accomplish certain goals, and later he wanted to leave a place for his friends to live, so that his subordinates who had fought with him could be prosperous and wealthy in the rest of their lives."
"Boss, you are so great, woo woo..."
Wen Xi was so moved that he said with tears in his eyes, "I will go and capture the empress... no, capture the three Gorgon sisters to warm your bed."
Renn: (ー_ー)!!
You are too filial.
Everyone: "..."
Fujitora ignored Wen Xi's trash talk, his expression turned serious, and said:
"However, I must remind you that one person cannot support a country. Even if he can, the glory of this country is as fragile as a castle in the air.
How can we create a glorious, prosperous and everlasting country?
How can we accomplish something great in this turbulent era?
I have asked many scholars at the institute about this question, and they have many answers, but they all focus on the following points:
Wise and mighty leaders, loyal ministers, brave and capable troops, people with lofty ideals who serve one after another, unswerving beliefs, correct and dynamic development path, etc.
So, gentlemen, stop talking nonsense. A country that only relies on great leaders when it encounters crises and challenges is nothing more than a giant baby at best.
Our military and people are not that fragile. On the way to the rise of a country, bloodshed and sacrifice are inevitable.
If these sacrifices are necessary, they cannot be avoided or retreated. "
Everyone was refreshed. No one spoke, but they were all thoughtful.
Does the Lionheart Kingdom, or people like them, rely on Ren?
The answer is yes.
Some time ago, Renn disappeared for a week, and the Lionheart Kingdom was on the verge of civil strife and division. If Nana hadn't confirmed that Renn was still alive, the consequences would have been unimaginable...
This country is strong but also extremely fragile.
Barrett, Shiliu of the Rain, Rob Lucci, Stussy, Gage... these people don't have a fuel-efficient lamp.
The harmonious coexistence of this group of cows, ghosts, and snakes is almost entirely due to Ren's own efforts.
Many people don't have much identification with the Kingdom, they just identify with Wren.
This is not a good thing for a country, because it is a deformed power structure and political system, especially when Renne will leave soon, which is undoubtedly a huge hidden danger...
In short, the power of the Lion Heart Kingdom has expanded too fast, and all internal aspects are unbalanced and unstable.
In this regard, even Ren has no good solution, so let alone replace the world government and rule the world, he only hopes that this three-acre land will not fall apart after he leaves.
In less than a year, it will merge with Nine Snakes, and then there will be another wave of reshuffles and power reorganization...
Ren was really helpless.
Force cannot solve all problems. To put it bluntly, his overly powerful force may actually be an obstacle to the kingdom's long-term prosperity.
With an unstable foundation, Renn no longer dares to expand blindly. He only hopes to use this time to stabilize the interior of the Lion Heart Kingdom and form a centripetal force and cohesion.
As long as the Lion Heart Kingdom can survive stably, it will definitely get a huge piece of cake in the changes in this world.
"Okay, gentlemen."
Ren looked at Shiliu of the Rain, Barrett, Yisheng, Rob Luqi and Gaji, and said seriously, "I will try my best to take as little action as possible and leave all difficulties to you. I will also I hope you can work together and don't let me down.
My minimum requirement is that one day in the future, after the collapse of the world government, the Lionheart Kingdom can occupy at least one-third of the power and resources in the newly established regime. "
The current world government was established 800 years ago by 20 ambitious kings, and their descendants are the Celestial Dragons.
(The Neferutari family voluntarily gave up their seats.)
In other words, world hegemony was divided among 19 royal families.
Even if a new government is formed in the future, it is impossible for the Revolutionary Army or the Lion Heart Kingdom to monopolize all the seats.
Not surprisingly, this time power will be divided more evenly and the system will be more democratic.
Important countries like the Ryugu Kingdom of Fishman Island (they have the Sea King), Wano Country (where Pluto sleeps), and the Kingdom of Alabasta will definitely have a place in the future.
Renne demanded that the United Kingdom of Lionheart could obtain multiple seats under the new power system in the future and be glorious for at least a hundred years.
It won't matter what the kingdom looks like in a hundred years.
Because at that time, Yu Zhiliu, Barrett and Wen Xi all died...
"Alright, Kingdom Navy, let's go on an expedition! The target is the Big Mom Pirates!" Renn stopped thinking about it and waved.
"yes!"
Fujitora, Lu Qi, Yamato and others responded and led the people away resolutely.
The other ministers who did not need to go on an expedition also left one after another. Only Queen Reiju was left in the study, while the maid Stussy gently closed the door of the study and stood waiting outside.
"Tired?" Reijiu hugged his neck with both hands and said softly.
"I'm bored."
Ren rolled his eyes and said, "If I didn't want to leave a legacy for my friends, I would have disbanded the Lionheart Pirates after becoming the Fifth Queen and traveled around the world alone."
Dominating the world is not his mission at all.
To put it bluntly, after he defeated Hawkeye and became a sword master in the fifth level, he could return to the main world.
What he is doing now has no meaning or benefit to him personally.
When Reijiu heard this, she sat on his lap, put a pair of arms around his neck, and put her seductive red lips on his mouth.
As a woman, at this time, she naturally has to solve the troubles for men.
Ren hugged her flexible waist with both hands and kissed her passionately.
After a long time, the lips parted.
He pinched her cheek and complained: "What happened to you today? It's like you overturned a jealous jar."
"Huh?" Reijiu pouted and said dissatisfied, "I didn't let you take responsibility, which is already very generous. You are still flirting with the empress, Bichi, and I am so easy to dismiss... hmm~"
Before she finished speaking, Ren picked her up and placed her graceful body on the table.
Snap!
The books and documents on the table were swept to the floor. He tore the chiffon shirt on the beauty's upper body into pieces with his hands, lifted up her long legs with white and smooth skin, lifted up the white lace skirt, and lifted her body. Pressed up...
Too lazy to talk nonsense, he sent her away with physical actions.
…
Stussy stood outside the door. Suddenly her ears twitched and an ambiguous smile appeared on her face.
Even if the door is soundproof, she can still hear the men's low growls and the women's loud and short calls...
And this time it was particularly wild and restless.
More than two hours later, the movement in the study stopped, and Ren came out holding Reijiu, who was disheveled, her youth was leaking, and her body was curled up, making her appear weak and weak.
Her hair was a little messy, her forehead was dripping with sweat, and she had fallen asleep.
"I'll go to the laboratory and leave her to your care." Renn handed Reiju to the maid.
Stussy took over the unconscious queen, pursed her lips and smiled sweetly: "Your Majesty, you are so brave. It seems that you haven't had enough fun yet. Do you need me to continue to serve you?"
After saying this, she licked her delicate red lips with her tongue and gave him a wink.
Snapped!
Ren patted the maid's plump buttocks, touched her long black stocking thighs, and hummed softly:
"Humph, no need, little goblin, if she can't do it, you can't do it either."
How powerful is the immortal golden body?
Resilience, endurance, etc. are far beyond those of normal humans. To truly satisfy him, he must be at least a woman of the level of the Queen of the Demon Realm or the Empress (Goddess Gorgon).
Stussy: "..."
I feel underestimated.
………
After cleaning up the disobedient queen, Ren left the palace and rushed to the research center building.
He unexpectedly met Nana outside the door. She seemed to be waiting for him.
Renn walked over and touched her little head and said, "What's wrong? You look unhappy."
"Of course I'm not happy."
Nana pouted and said gloomily, "You sleep with those two vixens all day long and don't even take me to play."
"Ah this...I am-"
"Humph, liar! We agreed at the beginning that you would kill people, I would set fires, and we would have a good time and drink spicy food together, but now you have forgotten your promise... a trash scumbag." Nana turned her head away and said angrily.
Renn: "..."
(ー_ー)!!, did I say this?
When I first deceived her, it seemed like...ahem.
"Okay, my fault, I'll take you to visit the laboratory today."
Ren smiled, picked up the sulky Nana, and put her on his shoulders.
During this period of time, he had somewhat neglected the little female dragon. She actually had a restless personality.
He took her to the underground floor of the institute and used the key to open the door to the laboratory.
As soon as she entered the laboratory, Nana looked around like a curious baby.
She ran to the center of the five-pointed star array, where there were five erected khaki stone slabs. Her green eyes looked at the patterns of hands, feet, limbs and bodies bound by chains on the stone slabs, with a curious look on her face, and said:
"Boss, what is this?"
"Exodia, or the five parts of the Dark Archmage."
"What is this for?"
"It can store my power. To be honest, it is actually my spiritual carrier as a crowned caster... It can be used five times."
While explaining, Ren walked to the stone slab, pulled out the black knife from the void, cut his palm, and blood containing light golden light dripped. The five-pointed star array on the ground glowed, and the blood flowed along the array. Penetrating into the stone slab.
Buzz!
The five simple stone slabs suddenly glowed with dazzling golden light, and a shadow with white hair and blue eyes appeared in the center. His limbs and neck were bound by chains, and he looked like the master of war, Ren.
Nana touched her chin and said: "It has no consciousness, similar to an alchemy puppet... the back-up plan you left behind?"
"Um."
A mysterious smile appeared on Ren's face, "It can't be said that there is no consciousness at all. If I want, I can use the power of His (system) to remotely link my consciousness to this phantom. In this way, fighting against Pluto and Neptune is not a problem, it is just the material. The number of uses is limited.”
At most five times, after all the slates were destroyed, he could no longer go online to fight remotely.
"That's enough. You have done your best to Wen Xi, Yuzhi Xiliu and the others."
Nana crossed her arms and said in an old-fashioned way, "If this cannot support two generations for a hundred years, it can only be said that they are all mud and cannot hold up the wall."
Ren smiled and said nothing, he actually thought so too.
Of course, this experiment was also very helpful for him to master alchemy, spiritualism and other knowledge. It not only left a backup, but also improved himself.
After he became a sword master, he was not complacent and continued to improve himself steadily.
Naturally, the speed is not as fast as before. You have to slowly accumulate strength before reaching the next bottleneck.
Nana came to the rune pool made of stones, leaves, knots, bird feathers and other materials. Countless special words glowing with blue light shone like a well of stars.
"This is?"
"An attempt at a rune system."
Renn was wearing a white lab coat, with silver eyes, exuding a calm and wise aura, and said, "I originally wanted to combine rune characters and borage runes to create a rune that can be used in the op world... Unfortunately, it basically failed. ”
The difficulty of creating a new rune is too high. Merlin, C Shen, and even King Solomon can't do it, and neither can he.
Therefore, this experiment has gone cold, but it also gave him a deeper understanding of rune characters and Borag runes.
At least for him personally, there was some gain.
"Then what is this?"
Nana walked to the experimental table, her eyes widened, "No, you actually destroyed the vampire form?"
On the table, in a glass vessel filled with light blue solution, the apple-shaped "vampire form" fruit has been cut into multiple parts, just like a blooming flower.
In the center is a diamond-shaped crystal, which is light red throughout. It is bubbling and seems to be constantly dissolving. At the same time, many capillary-like veins are connected to the cut vampire-shaped fruit, and some bright red energy is constantly circulating between the two. See It has a charming and mysterious beauty.
"Speak, what is this?" Nana said with a puffed face.
"The raw material for the power of blood is the form of a vampire + the blood core of a vampire marquis... After transformation, it can give others a powerful innate power between the devil fruit and the vampires of the main world.
There is no contamination caused by biting, and it is not afraid of sea water and sea rocks. "
Ren said rather proudly.
Eliminating the hidden dangers and weaknesses of the two things and perfectly preserving the advantages... is extremely difficult. This is one of the recent research results that he is most proud of.
Nana snorted coldly and said: "Is it for those two vixens? It's very good for the mistress. I might consider going to the Queen of Demon Realm to complain."
Renn: "..."
[○?'Д′?○]
If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have brought her to the lab.
