Chapter 515 Return, Settlement

With the development of the times, after the old pirates such as Whitebeard and Big Mom gradually pass away, each country will gradually build up its own national defense capabilities under a stable situation.

During this transition period, Vegapunk will manipulate the tidal device to reduce the sea level year by year.

The reason why the maximum power is not used to lower the sea level by 200 meters at once is, on the one hand, to prevent overly abrupt changes in the world environment from causing some uncontrollable chain reactions, and on the other hand, to prevent the continents from being connected quickly and causing new conflicts.

If the land area of ​​each country continues to decline little by little like it is now, it will naturally expand every year, which will just meet their development and production needs. Under the condition of abundant materials, wars and conflicts will not easily break out.

As for what will happen thousands of years later, Lu Li doesn’t worry about it. Just as he once said to Kaido and others, there has never been eternal peace or absolute justice in this world. People can only try their best to do their best.

In today’s new world, the Great Pirate Era has actually come to an end. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Beasts Pirates were able to control the world because they obtained the legendary great treasure. There are many different opinions about the great treasure, but no one thinks that Raftel still has the huge wealth left by Goldo Roger hidden.

Luffy didn’t care, because Lu Li told Luffy that he didn’t take Raftel’s things, and Luffy could continue his adventure if he was interested.

It’s just that Luffy is very stubborn, and he still clamours about becoming the Pirate King. Lu Li simply doesn’t bother to educate Luffy. Anyway, Luffy doesn’t rob when he goes out to sea, and he doesn’t engage in any “substantial pirate behaviour”, and it doesn’t violate current United Nations laws.

As for him shouting that he is a pirate on the sea, as long as he doesn’t rob or kill people, everyone will just think that Luffy is just playing pirate house.

Interestingly, Lu Li and Kaido have hit Luffy many times, but Luffy has never awakened the Nika Fruit.

But just two weeks after the battle to liberate the holy land of Marijoa, Luffy awakened naturally. One day, he came to Lu Li to show off, saying that he had mastered it and turned into the Nika form.

It’s just a little strange that Lu Li found that Luffy’s Nika was not as strong as described in the original work. He didn’t know if it was because he defeated Im that Luffy’s protagonist halo became invalid and he became an unnecessary person with destiny.

The next thing was easy. Luffy awakened the Nika Fruit and met the extraction standards. Lu Li directly used the extractor provided by the space to remove the fragments of the World Core from Luffy.

The same goes for Whitebeard. When they were drinking in Wano Country, Lu Li took out the Core of the World.

There were also some scattered fragments of the world core, such as Coby, most of which made Lu Li feel unhappy. In addition, there were no special requirements for extraction, so Lu Li just chopped them to death, such as Momonosuke.

His process of conquering the world this time cannot be said to be perfect, but at least he has now collected the world core with a purity of up to 96%, which has reached the standard of penetrating the world.

Today is the day that Luffy is going to set sail again with his friends. Mainly because Luffy has discovered that the sea level is dropping. He is worried that if he continues to stay in Wano Country, the sea will not be the same in two years.

If the sea disappeared and turned into land, how could he sail and adventure?

“Then, Brother Lu, we’ll set sail now.”

Luffy grinned as he boarded the Sunny.

Vice Captain Zoro was very polite. “Thank you for your care during this period!”

After the battle in the holy land, Lu Li had some free time, and he taught Zoro a lot of swordsmanship, which benefited Zoro a lot.

Lu Li looked at the sail gradually disappearing in the distance, a knowing smile appeared on his face. He was actually quite envious of Luffy, who was carefree and heartless, and could go out to sea with his friends purely to enjoy the fun of adventure. That was pretty good too.

The security on the sea is very good nowadays, and Luffy and the others shouldn’t encounter any setbacks in their strength. Even if they just wander around and play around, they will be able to reach Raftel in a few years.

There’s no need to look for the main historical text, as Robin has memorized it by heart. However, in order to cater to Luffy’s desire for adventure, Robin will most likely reveal it to Luffy bit by bit through special means. Otherwise, if she goes straight to Raftel, it would be meaningless.

“What a rowdy bunch they are.”

Aokiji looked at the Straw Hat Pirates going out to sea and said with emotion, “I guess the teacher didn’t expect this to be the ending.”

During the battle in the Holy Land, he still remembered the kindness of his mentor and did not kill him. Garp in the ice did not die and survived the war. He is currently under house arrest.

Luffy also knew about this, but he didn’t clamor to save Garp. In Luffy’s own words, “My grandfather is a navy, and I am a pirate. How can a pirate save a navy?”

Luffy is not an ignorant child. When Ace got into trouble before, he didn’t say he would help, but only said that Ace had his own adventures.

It was not until he heard that Ace was going to be executed that he rushed to save him. Moreover, he was alone after being knocked away. If he was with his friends, he might not have saved Ace, because saving Ace was not part of his friends’ adventure.

If it were Garp, the situation would be even more different. His grandfather was a navy man, not a pirate like Ace. They naturally had different positions. Moreover, he knew that his grandfather was not going to be executed, so he didn’t bother to worry about it.

After all, even if we take a step back, his father Dragon is among the top leaders of the new coalition government, but Dragon has not said that he wants to save his father. What position does Luffy, his son, have to speak up?
Rather, it was Dragon who proposed to imprison Garp, and he had no intention of releasing him.

As a son, giving Garp a decent house arrest to spend his later years was already a relatively humane approach on his part.

“Mr. Lu, Mr. Kaido will be back tonight and have a party!”

A pirate shouted behind Lu Li, his voice full of joy.

Lu Li grinned, “Here I come.”

…………

One month later, at the port of Wano Country.

“I still feel a little unsatisfied, Brother Lu…”

Yamato jumped off the boat and sighed at the familiar country in front of him, “Why don’t I just quit my job and go on this adventure with you.”

Lu Li leaned his hands on the fence and looked at Yamato, smiling and said, “Please don’t do that. If you do that, Mr. Kaido will come after me, right? Besides, the Beasts can’t live without you now.”

After Luffy set sail again, Lu Li also went out to sea with Yamato for a month-long adventure, seeing many unique scenery, fulfilling their previous promise.

It’s just that Yamato is now an important member of the new coalition government and cannot leave for long. Although the new coalition government does not intend to establish a hereditary system, due to the current world situation, the original members of the Beasts Pirates are still needed for military deterrence, so military strength must be guaranteed.

Therefore, Yamato must become Kaido’s successor, not necessarily in terms of political power, but at least the military power of the Beasts must be inherited by her so that it will not become a mess.

On the contrary, Lu Li, although he was originally the military strategist of the Hundred Beasts, said that he wanted to go out for adventure after peace. Although Kaido felt sorry for him, he did not stop him.

Kaido’s idea was simple. He felt that Lu Li had spent ten years in prison and suffered a lot. After returning, he worked hard again. He finally overthrew the Celestial Dragons, so Lu Li really deserved a vacation.

However, other smart cadres in the Beasts Pirates have a different perspective on the issue. People like Fujitora just think that Lu Li is too great.

Well, smarter ones like Fujitora and Aokiji think that Lu Li is too strong now, and is in a dominant position in the battle to overthrow the Celestial Dragons. He is at the level of being so powerful that his achievements are enough to shock his master.

Although Kaido may not think so, the people below him will inevitably have mixed thoughts. At this time, Lu Li’s choice to leave the center of power after the matter is accomplished is undoubtedly a statement of a high level.

They knew in their hearts that Lu Li was not going on vacation at all, but might go out to sea under the pretext of adventure and then find a place to live in seclusion. Unless the Beasts Group encountered an unsolvable problem, Lu Li would never come back.

Jin, Fujitora and the others just thought: He is so serious, I am crying.

What is the truth? Lu Li didn’t know how other people imagined it, but he would definitely not come back after this voyage, because his stay in this world had reached its limit.

He is only responsible for breaking through the world. As for how the world will evolve, it depends on the luck of Kaido and others.

But at present, it seems that the world is evolving in a positive direction. Vegapunk’s fire technology has begun to be shared, gradually solving energy problems for various countries.

This would have been impossible when the world government was in power, but now that they are in power, they can naturally share energy.

As the saying goes, all things are difficult at the beginning. Once they share their energy technology in this generation, even if the new coalition government wants to go back on its word hundreds of years later, it will not be able to control other countries through energy.

Once the energy problem is solved, the problem of war will be largely solved. After the sea level drops, the world will enter a new round of rapid development.

“Mr. Lu, have a safe trip!”

“Write to us during your adventures!”

“I really envy Mr. Lu. I also want to continue sailing. I’m not used to working now.”

“…”

In front of the port, many figures stood there to see Lu Li off until the boat sailed into the sea and the sail disappeared. The people in the port seemed to be in another world, and it was a long time before they dispersed.

Above the sea, after the countdown ended, Lu Li was enveloped by a white light and disappeared into the pirate world.

…………

There was a flash of light, and Lu Li’s figure appeared in the familiar room.

[It is detected that the pioneer has no obvious injuries. Do you want to start the settlement? 】

Lu Li was now full of energy and sat on his favorite sofa. He replied directly: “Settlement.”

[Start calculating the derivative world rewards…]

All tasks were completed outstandingly, and the overall evaluation of this world was improved.

Let’s start to comprehensively rate the world of the Pioneer’s mission…

It is detected that the Pioneer Mark level is lower than the world’s highest comprehensive difficulty level. The score is slightly increased and the Pioneer Experience is slightly increased.

Overall rating: S+
Obtain an S+ Medal of Honor, which can be used to redeem special items in Chubby Dragon’s Surprise Shop.

The Pioneer’s comprehensive attributes have surpassed the fifth-level barrier and are exempt from advanced trials.

The Pioneer level has been upgraded to lv.46
[Based on the Pioneer’s comprehensive score performance, six of the following nine rewards can be selected. 】

A.9 points of real freedom attribute reward

B.1500000 End Coins
C. Relic-level random bloodline treasure chest (Yim drop compensation)

D. Relic-level random equipment treasure box

E. Heritage Crystal (Large) *5
F. Special Title: Realm Master Hunter

G. Holy Relic Random Item Treasure Box

H. Optional Grandmaster Level Mastery Scroll
I. End Hole Opener (Extremely Rare)
Lu Li’s harvest in the pirate world this time was unprecedentedly abundant. This does not refer to a comparison of value, but rather that his harvest has increased by leaps and bounds compared to the previous world.

This was due to his relatively invincible combat power at the current stage, which allowed him to directly break through a super-large derivative world. The rewards he obtained were certainly not comparable to the gains from previous mission worlds.

He roughly browsed through the options, and just as he guessed, after entering the real attribute field, the attribute points rewarded became less. He was afraid that he had already received the highest reward in terms of attributes.

He definitely needs attribute points, which are the foundation of the foundation. Even though he seems to have a lot of bloodlines that can improve his attributes now, the higher his basic attributes are, the more inheritance crystals he needs to upgrade his bloodline if he wants to rely on bloodlines to increase attributes without attenuation.

It’s like a person with 150 points of real attributes. It’s impossible to say that upgrading Muzan Kibutsuji’s bloodline can further improve it. Even if it can be improved, it will require a huge amount of inheritance crystals.

Therefore, the attribute point rewards directly provided by the space will be a cost-effective way for explorers to improve in the early and middle stages. This is also what Lu Li heard from the big guys when he was lurking in Fat Dragon’s chat group.

After locking in option A, the other options are not difficult to judge. He will definitely take the Im treasure chest chosen by C. After all, it is the treasure chest of the world boss and it will definitely contain good bloodlines.

If the value of option D is good, it will obviously be better than the simple End Coin. Besides, it is time for him to use relic-level equipment, so he should consider checking it. He doesn’t mind the few inheritance crystals in option E, so he checks it.

Titles and the like are usually good things, so Lu Li was ready to tick it by default. What really made him curious was the last option mentioned, the “End Hole Opener”

What is this?
