Haiyuan calendar year 1517.
In the Kingdom of Goa, on the coast of Windmill Village, a small boat rises and falls with the waves.
Luffy put his hands on his hips and said, "Be careful, Ace!"
Behind Luffy stood dozens of villagers from Windmill Village and bandits living in Mount Kolpo. However, Dadan, the leader of the bandits, did not come to the scene.
"Hey~ Goodbye, Luffy." Ace stretched out his hand to support his hat: "I went to sea first."
"Yeah!" Luffy nodded heavily: "When I go to sea in three years, I will become stronger."
"Haha..." Ace showed a sunny smile. The freckles inherited from his mother did not make him ugly.
"Come on, Ace!"
"Take care!" A group of people waved goodbye to Ace.
Maginot, the bar owner of Windmill Village, waved her hand and said, "Don't catch a cold——!"
"Just wait, I will be famous all over the world soon!" Ace responded confidently to everyone.
People with deep feelings waved goodbye reluctantly.
The jib drives the boat and sails quickly into the distance, leaving a white trace on the blue sea.
Soon, the boat Ace was on turned into a blurry shadow. Luffy raised his hand to his forehead to block the sun: "Ace is gone."
"Really." The old village chief sighed: "I don't know what that guy Garp will say."
In a wooden house, Dadan, who is broad and fat, is sitting cross-legged. The line of fire is moving towards his lips. The tobacco is burning quickly, and the gray ash is falling due to gravity. There are three or four bottles of wine that he has just finished drinking next to his legs. There is an expression in his eyes that he has never seen before. of tenderness.
"Boss." Several bandits reached out and opened the curtain: "That guy Ace is gone."
"Ah...really..."
Dadan said angrily: "In the end, it was me who was scolded by Garp. I am really a hopeless brat."
"Ah..." The bandit suddenly remembered: "By the way, Ace asked me to bring you a message."
"What!?" Dadan shouted dissatisfied: "Are you going to complain about me until the end?!"
The bandit spread his hands and said unexpected words: "He said he was grateful to you for taking care of him, thank you very much."
"Ha..." Dadan's hidden emotions in his heart were destroyed by this thank you. Thick mucus leaked from his nostrils and clear tears rushed from his eyes:
"Are you kidding, that idiot!"
"Boss, are you crying?"
"I'm not crying, asshole!"
…
"'Fire Fist' Ace..." Eric, who had just received the newspaper, raised his eyebrows. The headlines contained photos of the super newcomers.
"Ah, this kid has already gone to sea." Kuang San behind Eric said with a smile: "He only passed half of the paradise and he made such a big name."
"Your tone is so old..."
"I've become an old aunt..." Kuang San said with self-pity: "Seven years ago, Ace was just that old when we went to sea. Now, he has grown up and formed his own pirate group..."
"In my opinion, you are as young as before, you haven't aged at all." Eric reached out and stroked Kuang San's dark and shiny hair.
"Ace..." Hiyori tilted her head in confusion: "I seem to have heard of this name."
"Oh?" Kurumi turned to Hiyori: "Have we mentioned Ace to you before?"
"No." Hiyori shook her head: "But I always feel like I've heard this name before."
"He is the Pirate King, the biological son of Gol D. Roger. The Pirate King's sword is also called Ace."
"Oh!" Hiyori suddenly realized.
"I didn't expect that in just a few months, Ace would become so famous and even eat a natural Shao Shao fruit." Kuang San moved his eyes and landed on the photo in the newspaper: Ace's fist completely transformed. For the sake of the flames, another pirate group was wiped out.
"With Ace's sailing speed, he must be able to reach the new world soon..." Eric grinned: "I wonder if he will be able to participate in this 'World's No. 1 Martial Arts Tournament' in time."
Over the past year or so, Eric has adjusted his employment strategy. Those who have ability, fame, and merit will be given higher positions; those who have ability, merit, but not fame will be given real power but not high positions; those who have no ability, fame, or merit will be given high positions. Given a high position but no real power.
Zhuge Liang and other virtuous ministers have been in power for many years, and everyone in the entire Shenzhou Kingdom is well-known, and their political achievements are obvious to all. They have risen to high positions and hold important powers. At the same time, the princesses of the Beihai Alliance countries have also tied the knot with them, and the Shenzhou Kingdom has also established relationships with these countries. Become a community where everyone is prosperous and everyone suffers.
Esdeath, Scathach, Chitong and other companions hold important positions such as military power and prosecutorial power.
Another example is Rihe, Shuoyue Kangjia and others. Their official positions are higher and their power is lower. It also gave the people of the Kingdom of China an illusion that as long as you have outstanding abilities and outstanding achievements, even the old ministers and family members of the Guangyue Clan can rise to high positions. The people who once missed the Guangyue Clan immediately changed their allegiance. At least, Ai The Kingdom of China ruled by Rick does not value birth status, but rather personal ability!
Those who came over, such as Fossac Bores, Honasan Cooper, etc., were assigned different positions, actual power and ability, and were given more and less. The new team members also think that the new boss values them very much and is dedicated to working for Eric.
In short, it is the emperor's balancing art that prevents old companions from being disappointed, satisfies new companions, and prevents others from developing dissent due to excessive power.
However, most of the people Eric trusts are the characters he summoned...
People like Wendy, Miku, Yoshino and others don't care about their official positions at all, they only care about their own interests and hobbies, and Eric allows them to act according to their own preferences.
Xiangling's food has become famous throughout the New World through the mouths of tourists, and has become a holy place to visit in China. There is also a saying: If you have not tasted the dishes made by Xiangling, you cannot say you have been to China!
Even her rival BigMom had heard about it, but she was afraid of the terrifying strength of the Dawn Pirates and did not dare to taste the delicacies in person. She could only send Katakuri to the Kingdom of China to buy delicacies and snacks.
During this period, Katakuri met Brynn, who was abducted by Eric, at Eric's suggestion.
"Katakuri said: "Brin, how are you doing now?"
"I'm living a good life, Katakuri-nii." Brynn replied softly, the third eye on her forehead opened generously, not caring at all about the discrimination and discrimination she suffered in the past because of her third eye. Bully.
"..." Katakuri seemed to want to speak to persuade Brynn back, but considering Eric's presence, he did not say it directly.
"Everyone is very kind to me." Bryn saw Katakuri's doubts and said, "My life here is easier than on Cake Island."
"You..." Katakuri was speechless. Just looking at Brynn's expression, it didn't look like he was faking it.
"Katakuri, why don't you come to our place?" Eric offered an olive branch.
"Are you kidding?" Katakuri retorted: "You killed Conte, Kadenz, and Gala!"
"In the future, more people will die in the Charlotte family." Eric shrugged and replied nonchalantly.
"...!" Murderous aura rose from Katakuri's body. Eric looked back at Katakuri with a smile on his face, not caring at all about the murderous aura.
"Click"
The culprit who killed the three brothers flicked his thumb, and the killing blade was unsheathed an inch.
"Brother Katakuri," Bryn called. She couldn't bear to see the few brothers who regarded her as family members seeking their own death.
Katakuri suppressed his anger. He was not a brainless man. In the enemy's base camp, he could not cause any trouble at all.
"Katakuri, when will you figure it out? You can join us at any time." Eric opened his arms to welcome him. 』
The original members of One Piece, such as Kuina, Runti, and Perona, practiced hard under the strict supervision of Scathach and others, and their strength has made great progress.
"And..." Eric turned his head and looked at the door. A young pink figure pushed open the door, and the crisp sound of "ta-ta-da" boots came from far to near.
"Thank you for your hard work, Your Lady Queen."
"Humph, are you making fun of me?" the visitor responded displeasedly, and gave Eric a sharp look with his sharp red eyes.
She is small in stature, with long pink hair tied into three ponytails. She is wearing a black gothic dress and black over-the-knee boots. The sleeves and clothes are surrounded by black ribbons and flower collars. The skirt and the ends of the sleeves have multiple layers of pleats. , making the whole person look layered.
She is none other than Krullu Tepesi, who was summoned by the Bat Fruit, Phantom Beast Species, and Vampire Form.
"How dare you, my Queen."
"Your Queen has someone else, don't call me that!" Krulru sneered, waving his hand and throwing something to Eric: "My mission is accomplished."
Eric took the package and opened it: "Oh, I actually bothered the Queen to help me with my work. I really..."
"Deng!" A cross-shaped vein bulged on Krulu's tender forehead: "It's time for me to meet my brother!"
"Yes, yes~" Eric handed a katana to Krulru.
Krulru hugged Katana and said affectionately: "Brother!"
"...If I didn't know the inside story, I would have thought you were a fetishist." Eric complained.
"Better than pedophilia." Krulru retorted, not afraid of Eric at all.
Since the summoning of Krulu Tsepesi, there is another strong man who dares to confront Eric directly.
"If you continue to slander me as a pedophile, I'm going to take away the ajuramaru." Eric moved his fingers flexibly, pretending to snatch the katana in Krulru's arms.
"Well -" Krulru hugged the katana tightly and immediately took a step back.
"You really like teasing my sister, Eric." In Eric's eyes, the samurai sword turned into a long-haired shota with pointed ears and red eyes, talking to him face to face.
After unremitting training, Eric's hegemony has grown to nine and a half stars. He has successfully awakened the voice of all things and can hear sounds that others cannot hear. His spear skills have also been improved to nine and a half stars. Unfortunately, he is still no match for the nine and a half stars of spear skills. Scathach.
Eric shrugged and smiled: "After all, your sister is quite arrogant..."
"I'm not arrogant..." Krulru gritted his teeth and said, "If I couldn't beat you..."
"You can challenge me now, as long as you are not afraid of being shocked by me and making you incontinent."
Krulru's cheeks twitched, and after calming down for a while, he asked: "What did my brother say?"
She does not know the Voice of All Things, and all brother-sister dialogue is conveyed through Eric.
As for how Eric gained the trust of Krulru, it was because when she reached out to hold the knife, the familiar and warm feeling from the past welled up from the bottom of her heart. Needless to say, Krulru immediately believed that it was the brother she had spent thousands of years looking for.
"He told me not to tease you." Eric spread his hands.
"No, what you conveyed is a bit wrong..." Asela Tsepesi shed a few drops of sweat.
"it's the same."
"Brother, he..." Krulru carefully stroked his katana with one hand, trying to listen carefully to his brother's voice, but he couldn't hear anything.
Eric blurted out: "German Orthopedics..."
"What?" Several people present were stunned.
"Ahem." Eric cleared his throat and changed the topic: "Nothing, Krulru, if you have anything to say, please tell me, and I will help you translate."
"..." Krulru looked at the katana carefully and did not say anything immediately.
"I said, Asela, what does your sister like? I want to increase her favor..."
"..." Everyone present turned to look at Eric who said what was in his heart almost at the same time.
"I don't mean anything else." Eric raised his hand and said, "It's just that Krululu doesn't seem to trust me, which makes me very embarrassed..."
[Name: Krulu Tsepesi]
[Physique: Eight Stars]
[Physical skills: eight and a half stars]
[Armed color domineering: six stars]
[Seeing and hearing domineering: five stars]
[Overlord Color Dominance: Five Stars]
[Devil Fruit: Eight and a Half Stars]
[Bond Level: 1]
[Comprehensive ability: eight stars]
[Note: The third vampire ancestor who lived for 2,800 years was powerful, but due to carelessness, he was attacked from behind by Fred Bartley and died. 】
Krulru's personal strength is very strong. Armed color and knowledge color domineering are also cultivated in this world. There is almost no need to waste bond points on her to cultivate. But her favor is a big problem, which prevents Eric from summoning her for a long time after summoning her.
As for Asera Tsepesi, he had already turned into a samurai sword, and Eric bought him directly in the system mall.
"..." Kruru, who has lived for two thousand years, does not have the shyness and reserve of a girl. She looked down at the katana in her arms, raised her head, and said seriously: "As long as you can save my brother, you You can do anything to me!"
"Hey, hey, hey! Krululu, do you know what you are talking about!?" The materialized Yasser said: "Eric, please reject her!"
"No, no, no..." Eric shook his head repeatedly: "Kruru, you are thinking too much."
"Why?" Krulru asked with a sad look on his face: "Why don't you want to help me?"
"There's nothing I can do to turn him back into a human being..." Eric's speech slowed down and gradually stopped.
"Have you thought of any method?!" Noticing Eric's strangeness, Krulru stretched his neck and poked his head out, asking eagerly.
"I only think of one idea. I'm not sure whether I can turn Asra back into human form. If it fails, you might even scold me..."
"I, I will never scold you like that!" Krulru said loudly: "Please, Eric!"
"Say it quickly!"
Seeing the excited Krulru, Eric didn't intend to continue to sell it, and said: "This may involve using your blood, Krullu."
"My blood?"
Some people died, but not completely...
