A few days later.
Somewhere in the hidden cave behind the mountain of the Amazon Lily Island.
"I didn't expect there to be a Poneglyphs stone."
Ross stood inside the cave, which should have been a very dark place, but Ross distorted the light from the entrance of the cave to here, making the entire cave as bright as day.
Taking Robin to find the Poneglyph stone, Ross originally just said it because there was no Poneglyph stone in his memory of the Amazon Lily Island, but after carefully searching the Amazon Lily Island, he didn't expect it to be true.
"The history of the Amazon Lily Island …"
Robin came to the Poneglyphs stone and carefully looked at it word by word.
This is an ordinary Poneglyphs stone, which records the history of the Amazon Lily Island, not the Intelligence Poneglyphs, nor the Road Poneglyphs.
But.
Even if it is an ordinary Poneglyphs stone, Robin will study it carefully.
In the past few days, in addition to finding the Poneglyphs stone, Hancock finally chose to lead the Amazon Lily Island to Totto Land.
It is said that it is a surrender, but in fact, it is just hanging the flag of the Ghost Hand Pirates.
Just like today's Fishman Island and Dressrosa Kingdom, both of these countries hang the flag of the Ghost Hand Pirates and are listed under Totto Land.
Ross initially wondered if he should get Hancock to Totto Land, but after thinking about it, he decided to put her in the Amazon Lily Island, so as not to cause a lot of trouble that is difficult to deal with.
… …
Half a month later.
The Pirate Empress, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, openly terminated the Shichibukai contract with the World Government and joined the Ghost Hand Pirates.
When the news came out, the world was shocked!
No one expected that the proud and aloof empress would be conquered.
However, Ghost Hand Ross, who stands in the strongest position in the world, does have this qualification.
Countless people who had improper thoughts about the empress, after learning the news, could not help but sigh and quickly gave up their unrealistic ideas.
… …
So far, four Seven Warlords of the Sea have had accidents under Ross. In addition to Crocodile, Gekko Moria, and Doflamingo, the Pirate Empress has also had an accident.
And what made the World Government even more angry was that the empress was not killed by Ross, but she gave up her Shichibukai status and joined the Ghost Hand Pirates!
"Damn it!"
In the World Government's Power Room, a Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars) couldn't help but curse.
The Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars) next to him blinked and said: "Pirates are unreliable. When she was given the status of Shichibukai, she should have considered the current situation in advance."
"How about destroying the Amazon Lily Island?"
The eyes of the Five Elder Stars next to him flickered with anger as he suggested.
If it was destroyed by Ross, such a blatant betrayal would undoubtedly be a great blow to the majesty of the World Government.
If this kind of thing happens more, it will make many people feel that the World Government is not as terrible as the Ghost Hand Pirates and the Ghost Hand Pirates are more terrible than the World Government.
This kind of thinking was extremely dangerous.
Moreover.
When the Pirate Empress joined the Shichibukai, Vegapunk had not yet developed the kind of turbo-powered warship with a Seastone base that could cross the Calm Belt.
Because of the extreme helplessness of the Amazon Lily Island hiding in the Calm Belt, he decided to let the other party become a Shichibukai, which is a very important factor.
But now, with Vegapunk's Battleship that can easily pass through the Calm Belt, even entering the Calm Belt won't be too dangerous. The natural barrier of the Amazon Lily Island no longer exists.
"No."
"Ghost Hand Pirates is not a stupid beast. Since he brought the Pirate Empress under his command, he must have considered that we would turn against him."
The Gorōsei with the sword stood there, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.
One of the people next to him said, "Yes, maybe the Ghost Hand Pirates are in the Amazon Lily Island now. If we send troops rashly, we will suffer a lot of losses."
The discussion went back and forth, and there was no conclusion.
The matter was shelved by the World Government.
… …
After the Amazon Lily Island was listed as one of the affiliated countries of Totto Land, Ross stayed in the Amazon Lily Island for another week and had in-depth exchanges with the Empress Hancock on the future development direction and planning of the Amazon Lily Island and comprehensively elaborated the tone of sustainable development.
Ross highly evaluated Hancock's Milk … Her contribution to the Amazon Lily Island and determined that the Amazon Lily Island has independent autonomy. The planning and management are still decided by the Empress alone. In addition, when Totto Land is threatened, the Amazon Lily Island needs to send troops to help.
A week later.
Ross left the Amazon Lily Island by ship and Hancock personally went to the dock to see him off, with a little red on her cheeks, showing a myriad of amorous feelings under the sea breeze.
… …
On the sparkling sea, a sailboat was sailing slowly.
Robin took a newspaper she had just bought from the News Bird and came to Ross, who was sitting on the deck, and said:
"Bounty of 500 million Berries, the government seems to be really angry."
The newspaper published the news that the Empress unilaterally gave up the Shichibukai title and became one of the affiliated countries of Totto Land. The World Government increased the bounty of 500 million Berries for the Empress!
The strength of the Empress is not weak. The bounty of 500 million Berries is not low, but it is not very high either.
"It's good to be angry."
Ross took a look at the newspaper and smiled: "It's best to piss off those five old things, the World Government will be in chaos, and the guy behind the scenes should jump out directly."
Robin hesitated and said: "You asked the Empress to publicly renounce the Shichibukai Treaty and join Totto Land, isn't it a little rash? Now the other Yonkō (Four Emperors) forces are very vigilant against us, and so are the World Government and Marines."
The power of the Ghost Hand Pirates is huge.
After defeating the Whitebeard Pirates, they are already ranked first among Yonkō (Four Emperors).
It is also because the Ghost Hand Pirates are too strong, after getting Germa 66 and the Pirate Empress, whether it is Marine or the World Government, or other Yonkō (Four Emperors), they have maintained great vigilance against the Ghost Hand Pirates.
Just think about it.
It is normal for four Pirate groups with little difference in strength to maintain a distance and balance with each other, but if one of the Pirate groups becomes more and more powerful and gradually opens a big gap with other Pirate groups, then this balance will gradually be broken.
"With the intelligence capabilities of the World Government, they will know about the Empress sooner or later."
Ross calmly said: "Instead of letting the World Government take the initiative to announce the revocation of Hancock's Shichibukai position and send troops to besiege the Amazon Lily Island, it is better for Hancock to give up voluntarily."
"Totto Land is not afraid of being vigilant by them now, because neither Whitebeard nor Akagami (Red Hair) will take the initiative to attack them, and so will Marines and the government."
"And creating such big news, it is easier to attract strong people around the world who are willing to join, forming a virtuous circle."
Hearing Ross's explanation, Robin was thoughtful.
Cleaning up the table, Robin chuckled slightly and said, "Hancock … when did you start calling the Empress by her name?"
Ross's face remained unchanged and he said, "A more intimate address helps to bring the distance between Totto Land and the Amazon Lily Island closer, forming a harmonious and mutual assistance situation."
Robin smiled and wanted to say something, but Ross suddenly reached out and pulled her.
Caught off guard, she suddenly lost her footing and fell into Ross's arms.
"It doesn't matter who I call by my name. You are the only one who can call me by my name now." Ross looked at Robin and said slowly.
Robin didn't struggle, she just looked at Ross with a smile, her eyes were bright and her long black hair was gently blown by the sea breeze.
