Rocks Band: I have 48 Imperial Arms.

The apparent wealth of Bailey alone far surpasses the imperial reserves.

and……

There's also a hidden secret vault!

"in……"

"Aside from a bunch of messy treasures whose origins are hard to discern."

"Six Devil Fruits!"

"They are all treasured in the imperial archives, and they must all be quite valuable."

Najendan spoke with a smile.

Chapter 218: The Dawn that Pierces Through the Darkness and Brings New Life to the World!

Such a large harvest at once.

It's foreseeable that Locke's forces will soon experience another surge in strength. It's time for an update and iteration! Time to evolve to a completely new version!

As for speculation about the power of the fruit?

Ok……

Najenda certainly hadn't studied the Devil Fruit encyclopedia carefully, let alone recognized these incredibly obscure fruits.

but!

It can be hidden by a top-tier country like Totonia, the Land of Freshwater.

It was treasured and kept in a secret vault.

Furthermore, the fact that it was sealed off with precious stones to prevent leaks demonstrates the royal family's high regard for it and its value!

Even if it's not a top-tier fruit like the 'Elemental Type Ice-Ice Fruit' or the 'Paramecia Type Hobby-Hobby Fruit', it won't be something worthless like the 'Human-Human Fruit - Commoner Mode'.

It has to be at least a high-grade fruit. There's even a possibility of getting a truly exceptional one.

Totonia Muka's 'Elemental Type Freshwater Fruit' is, in a sense, a top-tier and powerful fruit, but his strength is too weak to unleash its full potential.

"Harvest!"

"That's pretty good!"

Locke smiled slightly. He wasn't particular about the type of fruit, but the impressive quantity had already made him very happy.

With all eight Devil Fruits combined, there's still plenty left over even if we were to recruit another Imperial Arm!

It was an absolutely unexpectedly bumper harvest!

A fantastic start!

"Adding to what came before..."

"We're almost at ten fruits."

"By summoning Imperial Arms, or rather, by directly choosing to evolve them, we can immediately support two uses. Even if we keep one opportunity for unforeseen circumstances, we'll still have one usable unit left..."

"In that case, there's still a gap of 2 more..."

"No, it should be 3."

Locke murmured to himself, carefully estimating the consumption of the Imperial Arms space.

Six fruits are enough to activate once.

In theory, 12 should be enough for two uses, but Locke could sense that if he used it one or two more times after the last time, the consumption would increase again, given that he was close to reaching the critical point last time.

A conservative approach! We still need three!

but……

"That's enough!"

Locke nodded in satisfaction.

Locke was quite satisfied with the results of his first raid.

North Sea!

Even the whole world!

All of them were within his hunting range.

These long-calm seas... harbor numerous allied nations... and primordial kingdoms.

Locke had little interest in bullying other countries.

But what about allies of the enemy?

He won't show the slightest mercy!

Locke isn't a saint; plundering the enemy's lifeblood to strengthen himself is just standard practice!

"A powerful organization that robs countries around the world!"

"The core objective is to plunder treasures!"

"Making the summoned Imperial Arms users members of the organization is absolutely reliable and can maintain a high degree of mystery!"

"Not only can we plunder Beli and Devil Fruits to enhance our own strength, but we can also undermine the World Government's authority, drain their energy, and force them to focus their attention on an organization that doesn't even exist..."

Locke raised an eyebrow slightly.

What was originally just a skeletal plan was quickly filled with deeper meaning.

As for the program?

They could totally use the dragon's outfit to step forward!

The Revolutionary Army's ideology should make those spectators in the World Government jump up and down in anger!

He just fires a shot and moves on to a different spot.

With Seele's map-based abilities and Najenda's particle-state teleportation, Locke isn't afraid anyone can catch him. If he really can't win, can't he just run away? He can just lay low for a while before going back in!

Anyway, with the Imperial Arms space, once we've looted the Devil Fruit and evolved the Imperial Arms, we can just lead our people over to settle scores and crush him.

"In that case..."

"It's a long-term, big plan!"

Najendan's eyes lit up.

I instantly understood Locke's development direction.

On the surface, they stay in Noxus, ignoring the World Government's schemes and plots, but in secret they work with the Teigu users, wreaking havoc on the seas under the name of the organization, plundering endless treasures and strengthening themselves.

While plundering, they also summoned the long-dormant Imperial Arms one by one, expanding the organization's strength and forming a cycle.

While everyone else thought Noxus's development had stagnated.

actually!

But it has long since become the mastermind behind the upheaval of the ocean.

When the veil is lifted, even the world will tremble!

So cool!!

"Since this isn't a small-scale operation, for the sake of authenticity, shouldn't we give the organization a name?"

What name should I choose?

Leone, always eager to join in the fun, peeked out with her fluffy animal ears—super cute!

"Let's call her Xiao—"

Looking at the black robe he was wearing, Locke's playful lips curled into a hint of nostalgia.

"dawn?"

Leone blinked.

"Break through the darkness and bring the new dawn to the world!"

Locke's words were resolute and unwavering.

Like a ray of morning light piercing through the darkness!

The darkness that has shrouded freedom in shadow for eight hundred years is about to usher in a true dawn!

The world!

I shall be the master!

Locke's clear, black-and-white eyes shone with a light that made people afraid to look directly at him.

Chapter 219: The gradually growing wings and organization!

"dawn?"

"Is this the name His Highness has chosen for the organization?"
