King Arthur, Apprentice of Roger’s Company Chapter 116

The ocean!

It could be said to be exceptionally chaotic. With Roger ushering in the era of the Great Pirates, in this short period, the entire ocean’s situation became extremely chaotic, even to the point where it was indescribable.

“Kill!”

“Hahaha~~~”

“Thrilling!”

“Awesome!”

Such frenzied sounds, shouts of killing, roars, and bellows were countless and incessant, seemingly telling everyone what the ocean’s current state was and what its future outcome would be.

It was as if all of this was being proclaimed right before everyone’s eyes, and that was the most terrifying thing, wasn’t it?

Precisely because of this!

What would happen next? Countless people had gone mad. They were not so much pirates as they were a group of deranged individuals. All they wanted was insane slaughter and madness. Taking advantage of this chaotic era, they unleashed the beasts within themselves and completely released their madness.

Terror!

Horror!

Madness!

This was the most common scene on the ocean now. For these individuals, they didn’t care what would happen next, because the ruthlessness of these lunatics was beyond doubt.

At the same time…

The Red Line!

The World Government!

Mariejois!

Here!

The five individuals who held the world’s highest authority gathered once again. Their strength was undeniably formidable, and at this moment, their gathering represented the convergence of power.

Not only that!

This time!

The expressions of these five were filled with immense solemnity. For the first time, or rather, on very rare occasions, would they show such expressions. Everyone’s aura was extremely heavy. The five of them were either standing, sitting, or maintaining composure.

In short!

Everyone’s gaze was serious enough. Unlike their usual nonchalance, this time, they knew that things seemed to have truly gotten out of hand. With the outbreak of the Great Pirate Era, the situation that followed would be completely different. If it wasn’t handled well, the entire ocean might become extremely chaotic, even to the point where everything could completely collapse. And that was the most terrifying thing.

Even though the World Government had existed for eight hundred years, do not doubt that if problems truly arose, even the World Government would face issues.

After all!

Nothing remained absolutely stable. And while the World Government had ruled this world for 800 years, it had also experienced turmoil time and again. Now, the Five Elders were very clear that this was the most dangerous time.

If this balance could be maintained, then everything would be fine and could be gradually handled. But if this balance couldn’t be managed, and the entire ocean truly plunged into endless chaos because of Roger’s words, then that would be real trouble.

Even to say!

The World Government would face destruction. However, what the Five Elders didn’t know was that the great enemy, the Revolutionary Army, would also be born. It could be said that the World Government would face a truly turbulent future, and no one knew what the outcome would be!

To put it bluntly!

This was purely the Five Elders messing up. They thought everything was under their control, but problems ultimately arose. They were outsmarted by Roger, and as a result, things had turned out this way.

“Hoo~~~”

Exhaling deeply, the blond Five Elder walked step by step to the window. He stood by the window, closed the open window, and calmly said, “The chaos that Roger initiated probably cannot be eliminated in a short time. What we need to do is control this chaos and let it proceed smoothly according to our will.”

“Hmm!”

The curly-haired Five Elder nodded in agreement and said, “That’s right! It’s absolutely impossible to eliminate the chaos. The madness and greed of these people are the most troublesome things. Besides that, the large-scale influx of these people into the ocean will completely ignite the contradictions of the entire ocean. At that time, everything will become exceptionally troublesome.”

“Hmm!”

“Hmm!”

All five of the Five Elders nodded seriously in agreement with this statement. In the past, although kings, nobles, generals, and Celestial Dragons oppressed ordinary people, those ordinary people lived lives even worse than dogs.

However!

They mostly endured all of this. But this time, the true trouble with the outbreak of the Great Pirate trend was here: you and I were once the same. If that’s the case, then what will be the outcome?

Hmm!

This question was very important, even to say, this was the most troublesome thing. In the past, I could accept pain, but now, since you can kill me with one stroke, the problem is, I am just like you, I was once an ordinary person! Since you can kill me with one stroke, why must I passively endure this?

This!

This was clearly the biggest problem. If that were the case, then everything would be completely different. Naturally, this was the biggest trouble, even to say, if this matter could not be contained, then the entire ocean would fall into an extremely terrifying chaos.

No!

No!

It shouldn’t be said that it would fall into extreme chaos, but rather a complete collapse. After all, when the safety of the lowest level completely collapses, then these people will also be completely mad. After all, they have lost all their beliefs, and it can be said that they have lost everything. If that’s the case, why consider so much? Rather than that, why not just fight for once?

Maybe!

Not only can I survive, but I can also get everything I want? Precisely because of this, this is the most terrifying thing, and also the most important thing. In this regard, the result it brings is the most troublesome thing! Even to say, what will the next result be? This is the most important thing.

“Hoo~~~”

The bald Five Elder let out a deep breath and said, “The chaos among these ordinary people is the most important thing. We need to quell the chaos of everyone. For this, we need to reinforce the Marines and have them quickly control all situations on the entire ocean.”

“Hmm?!”

The long-haired Five Elder pondered for a moment and then considered, “Do you think such an outcome is acceptable? If the Marines continue to grow stronger, then many problems will arise!”

The bald Five Elder said earnestly, “The problem with the Marines, in essence, is just a small problem. No matter how the Marines grow, in reality, they will remain just that—a knife or a weapon in our hands! But if these ordinary people truly start to cause trouble, then the outcome at that point will be completely different.”

“Hmm!”

“Indeed!”

“Yes!”

“Undeniable!”

The others also agreed with this statement. The Marines! Actually, at first, the Marines were very powerful. When the original 20 kings established the World Government, the Marines’ status was terrifying, even to say!

Hmm~~~

The original structure of the World Government was different from now. Initially, the 20 kings set up different positions. As for that supreme person? Hmm! That person was quite special, just a simple introduction to the original structure!

Mariejois!

CP organization, AS organization!

Marineford, Impel Down, Enies Lobby.

Actually!

Initially, it was divided into these three sections: Marineford, Impel Down, and Enies Lobby were a trinity, essentially one entity, all subordinate to the Marines, and the highest position in Marine Headquarters was that of Fleet Admiral.

Besides that!

Marine Headquarters had three Admirals, as well as the Impel Down Warden, Marine Headquarters Academy Head Instructor, Marine Headquarters Chief of Staff, Marine Headquarters Crime Bureau Director, Marine Headquarters SWORD Unit Captain, Enies Lobby Chief Judge, Marine Headquarters Grand Inspector, and Marine Headquarters Special Forces Commander!

There were a total of eight such positions, and these eight positions were all equivalent to the three Admirals, even to say that the Grand Inspector could, at critical moments, exercise authority equivalent to that of the Marine Headquarters Fleet Admiral. (For exhilarating novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

To put it bluntly!

This was the Marine’s initial peak combat power. At its peak, there were openly 12 Admiral-level powerhouses. However, such a Marine force was simply too strong, and the Fleet Admiral of Marine Headquarters also held extremely high authority within the World Government.

Over time, all of this was fragmented. For example, the CP organization and AS organization were perfectly absorbed by the World Government, and the Five Elders took power. The three main Marine branches were completely split into three parts.

At the same time!

Above the Marine Fleet Admiral, a Grand Marshal of the Three Forces was even created, completely crushing the Marines and turning the Marines, who once truly maintained the world’s justice, into mere pawns in the hands of the Five Elders.

“Hmm~~~”

The bald Five Elder also agreed, “The increase in the Marines’ strength, no matter to what extent, has a limit. This is something not worth mentioning. The Marines cannot possibly return to their former state.”

“However!”

The blond Five Elder then said, “Besides that! Apart from having the Marines quell the entire world, there are many other matters that need to be dealt with. These are also extremely important and cannot be taken lightly!”

“Hmm!”

“How stable are the super-powers around the world?”

At this moment, the curly-haired Five Elder asked.

Regarding this matter!

The long-haired Five Elder pondered and replied, “The Flower Kingdom in the West Blue, the Germa Kingdom in the North Blue, and… the South Blue! The East Blue! The Grand Line! The New World! A total of 12 super-powers are currently maintaining stability and have made no moves. Besides that, other major organizations and forces have made no further moves…”

“However!”

“These!”

“Are only temporarily displayed. These need to be carefully considered. The future situation may not be the same as now, and problems may arise.”

“Indeed!”

All of the Five Elders strongly agreed with this. That’s right! Besides the ordinary people and civilians, the balance that the Five Elders had maintained for so many years, such as the super-powers! Dark organizations! Underground forces! These were all very important and needed to be kept in balance. If a problem arose in any position, the consequences would be terrifying!

It could be said!

If they were not careful, or even if problems arose, the entire ocean would fall into an extremely terrifying chaos. If it truly reached that level, then the situation would become completely different, even exceptionally and incomparably chaotic.

After all!

Ordinary people still need time to grow, but for these powerful forces, it’s completely different. They don’t need time to grow; they only need a moment to cause immense chaos in this ocean.

And this!

This was the most troublesome thing.

Precisely because of this!

In such a situation and under such a structure, the Five Elders truly needed to carefully consider and earnestly handle all the problems that lay ahead.

Big and small!

All problems!

It could be said!

Everything, the Five Elders were now extremely vigilant. They knew that if they relaxed even a little, in this chaotic era, many things could happen, even to the point where some forces might directly run wild.

Precisely because of this!

The problems that followed were the most important. Carelessness? No! No! Absolutely no carelessness was allowed. Do not doubt! When facing these guys, even a tiny bit of carelessness could be fatal. The Five Elders had never failed due to carelessness in all these years! And this time, if problems arose due to carelessness, they knew the situation would only become more troublesome.

“Hoo~~~”

It took a long time for the Five Elders to discuss a general plan, and this matter gradually settled down. This meeting lasted for three days and three nights. After it ended, even the Five Elders couldn’t help but let out a long sigh; they truly felt exhausted.

“Hmm~~~”

The sword-wielding Five Elder, who rarely spoke, said, “From the looks of it now, everything seems to be under control. However, we still cannot be careless, after all, in such a chaotic situation, no matter what, it’s certain that many problems will arise. If we are not careful, the situation will undergo earth-shattering changes.”

“After all!”

“Under chaos, that’s when the biggest problems will arise. No one knows what kind of monsters will emerge in such chaos. We are all very clear that the more chaotic the era, the more likely problems are to occur.”

While wiping his hand on one of the Twelve Supreme Grade Swords, the First Generation Kitetsu, this Five Elder slowly spoke these words.

His eyes became exceptionally sharp, and his aura became extremely terrifying. Clearly, this Five Elder was very aware of what the future situation would be like. It wasn’t just about the existing individuals, but also about guarding against the rise of new-generation powerhouses in such chaos.

After all!

Under chaos, there were no restrictions. No one knew how terrifyingly fast someone could grow in a short period. Perhaps, at an extremely terrifying speed, they might grow into a terrifying behemoth.

“Seconded!”

“Seconded!”

“Seconded!”

“Seconded!”

And regarding this statement, all the Five Elders unanimously agreed!

…

At the same time!

Chaos!

Madness!

Terror!

These had already permeated the entire world. It could be said that all of this was very normal for everyone. This ocean had fallen into its most chaotic period. Perhaps, in the future, there would be similarly chaotic periods.

However!

In this era, it was almost impossible for such a thing to happen, and precisely because of this, such trouble was the most chaotic thing.

Similarly…

Outside the British waters, someone had already set their sights on the British Empire!!!
