Luffy, how can you become the Pirate King if you don't work hard!

He represents the will of liberation and dawn.

Then came the great war that filled the blank century.

Joy Boy gathers a group of companions during his travels, and he leads his companions from various kingdoms and races to fight against Im and a coalition of 20 nations.

“The so-called Sun-Spreading War is Joy Boy’s constant fighting to liberate the slaves,” Nika said.

They fought from one island to another, from one sea area to another, and each battle liberated the people there.

The people liberated by Joy Boy spontaneously gathered around him, forming a large organization.

“Actually, we’re quite similar. We’re both doing pretty much the same things,” Nika said, looking at Luffy.

“My friends’ countries are my countries, and of course, what they protect is what I must protect,” Luffy said matter-of-factly.

Nika smiled.

Different eras, similar people.

This is all the case.

"These liberated people came from all races around the world. Joy Boy brought them light and fought for this cause. At some point, they were called the D race."

Nika looked at Vegapunk, "Just as you know, the one who inherits the will of the D. clan, the one who opposes the World Government."

"And those who rule the world will naturally not stand idly by. A coalition of twenty nations, led by Im, was formed, vowing to completely annihilate Joy Boy and his companions. The clash between their dreams led to the outbreak of the Void Century War."

A person who is half a moon had a dream, and a person who is the moon had a dream.

The so-called Half-Moon People are the D clan.

Their dream is to give freedom to everyone.

The so-called Moon People were the World Government at that time.

Their dream was eternal rule and order.

"Two dreams are destined to be incompatible."

"The clash between the dreams of both sides led to a war that lasted for a hundred years."

In the process of the two sides vying for the world, ancient weapons were activated.

Ancient weapons.

Upon hearing these four words, everyone's expression turned serious.

In Impel Down and in the Land of Harmony, they have all witnessed the power of ancient weapons.

"The power of ancient weapons triggered an unprecedented massive tsunami, causing the sea level to rise by a full two hundred meters in a very short period of time."

Countless islands were submerged, countless lives were swallowed up, and the entire world map was completely altered in that catastrophe.

The seas you see now in all directions, the calm belts, and the complex currents of the Grand Line were all formed at that time.

This is the wrath of the sea god mentioned in the Codex Halley.

Luffy also roughly knew what happened next: Joy Boy and his crew were defeated in the war.

Therefore,

Man killed the sun and became a god!

These are the Celestial Dragons of today.

The power of ancient weapons.

That is indeed a huge threat.

but,

"We also have two ancient weapons, so two against one gives us the advantage, right?"

Usopp encouraged him.

Needless to say, Aquaman is a given, and Shirahoshi is currently on the ship.

As for Pluton, Shirahoshi had the giant sea king drag the Pluton they found in Wano Country along behind their ship.

Two ancient weapons against one ancient weapon—the advantage is on our side!

"But it cannot be used indiscriminately."

Vegapunk solemnly warned, "Otherwise, we will repeat the same mistakes."

I always fall in the same place.

The reason why humanity always repeats history is that we have not learned enough from the past.

Having power does not mean you can use it at will; it is precisely because you have power that you need to be more restrained and cautious.

Chapter 640 The so-called Pirate King, a person who brings joy even after death.

Vegapunk's reminder is not without merit.

The destructive power of ancient weapons on the world is visible to the naked eye.

Luffy also remembered that when he first went to Enies Lobby, there was a huge hole there, with water constantly flowing downwards.

It is unfathomably deep and its diameter is beyond comprehension.

The scale of destruction was definitely not something that ordinary weapons could accomplish; it might even be traces left behind by ancient weapons.

That is, the cost of war.

The traces left over from hundreds of years ago are still clearly visible today.

The wrath of the sea god caused the formation of the East, West, South, and North Seas, creating the largest sea route in the Calm Belt, and tearing the once-unbroken continent into countless fragments.

They never saw each other again.

As Vegapunk said, although Joy Boy failed, he left behind the One Piece, and whoever obtains it will decide the fate of the world.

One piece of great secret treasure.

"The promise is that when the One Piece is discovered, Joy Boy's companions will gather again to witness the dawn of the world. This is the promised day."

Nika fell asleep as she was talking.

"Hey, hey, there's also the Third World!"

Vegapunk was in a panic.

The world's most brilliant mind is completely baffled as to why someone could suddenly fall asleep when the most crucial part of a story is being discussed.

How could you just fall asleep like that?

The prophecies about the Third World have not yet been explained.

However, the others weren't as anxious as Vegapunk, and they were quite satisfied with the story they had heard.

Kuzan and Gion, the two former Marines, were quietly processing these events.

"Aren't you curious?" Vegapunk asked, looking at the scattering crowd.

Luffy smiled. "The Third World is what they call a prophecy, isn't it? Regardless of what that poem foretold, whether it's good or bad, what our era will become is ultimately decided by us all, isn't it?"

The Third World: Amidst chaos, there are blank spaces.

The turbulent afterimages evoke memories of that promised day, and the sound of the moon shattering.

The sun god danced and laughed, leading the world toward its end.

The sun will return.

As the new dawn breaks, they will surely meet again.

Vegapunk watched Luffy's retreating figure and suddenly smiled.

Yes, the so-called prophecy is there.

But they were already living in the prophesied era.

As to what it will ultimately become, that is for them to create themselves.

The so-called King of the World created a world government and erased a hundred years of history and the existence of ancient kingdoms.

But the dawn of the world will eventually come.

Vegapunk felt that he was doing pretty well to be alive.

He really wanted to see that kind of future with his own eyes.

The old world ends, a new world is born, and he wants to witness that day with his own eyes.

In fact, Luffy probably knows all of these historical stories.

What Nika is telling us now is simply piecing together those fragments to form a complete picture.

So after hearing it, the impact on him wasn't as great as on others, and it didn't change anything fundamentally.

His mind was quickly filled with the scene of fighting Im in his dream.

The current plan is to find Kuzan for sparring.

"Is it my turn?" Kuzan asked, quite excited.

Shirahoshi and the others, who had just heard the story, were planning what to do when they heard there was going to be a battle, so they happily followed along.

On the sea behind the Sunny, the collision of ice and rubber stirred up wave after wave of giant waves.

"Wow, it's all ice and rubber."

Shirahoshi and Bonnie gasped.

Zhula.

Luffy stretched out his arm, and his fist, imbued with Armament Haki, slammed towards Kuzan like a black meteor. Kuzan, however, calmly dodged to the side, and a thick layer of ice instantly formed beneath his feet. At the same time, he conjured an ice spear in his hand and precisely stabbed it towards Luffy's landing point.

The two fought at an extremely fast pace, with offense and defense switching in the blink of an eye.

Every now and then, a wave of Conqueror's Haki would sweep over.
