One Piece: Starting with Sharingan, First Mate Uchiha

The highest point of Beehive Island.

Blackbeard stood by the castle window, looking down at the square below.

Pirates were everywhere—on the streets, rooftops, in the harbor, and on makeshift platforms.

Flags from the East China Sea, West China Sea, South China Sea, North China Sea, and the Grand Line were crowded together, almost obscuring the entire street.

Shouts and curses echoed continuously from inside the tavern.

Someone drew a knife at the entrance of the casino.

There were also newly arrived pirates at the port, who fought fiercely over a place to dock their ships.

Fresh blood flowed along the cracks in the stone slabs.

The people around them, however, continued to raise their glasses and cheer.

The man with the black beard looked down at the dense crowd below, and a slow smile crept onto his lips.

The ocean has already begun to turn because of his words.

Countless pirates who originally had nothing to do with Beehive Island stepped into the battlefield he had prepared because of the last Road Poneglyph.

For the first time, Blackbeard truly felt it.

He had already acquired the qualifications to stir up the entire world.

at first.

He just wanted the Dark Fruit.

He could hide in the Whitebeard Pirates for decades for the sake of that fruit.

You can pretend to be an ordinary crew member with no ambition.

later.

The Dark-Dark Fruit has finally appeared.

He killed Thatch, stole the Devil Fruit, and established his own pirate crew.

They stormed Impel Down.

Then seize the Soul Fruit.

He became one of the Four Emperors.

We obtained the fourth historical record of the road sign.

Each time a goal is achieved.

New desires will immediately arise.

The title of Four Emperors is no longer enough.

The Pirate King has not yet been obtained.

But before becoming the Pirate King, he can become another kind of king.

A... true king who rules over pirates!

An emperor of a country!

Beehive Island has always been known as the Pirate Paradise.

But the old Beehive Island was more like a temporary hideout for a group of outlaws.

Without stable order, there is no true nation.

Whoever has the bigger fist gets to control more streets, wealth, and women.

And now.

Blackbeard is preparing to give the island a new name and identity.

He wanted to establish the first nation entirely belonging to pirates.

Not to join the world government.

They do not pay the Celestial Dragons any Heavenly Gold.

It does not require recognition from any king, nobleman, or constituent country.

Anyone wanted by the World Government can come here.

Pirates.

criminal.

deserter.

slave.

Underground businessman.

Anyone who is willing to submit to him can obtain their own place.

of course.

So-called freedom has never meant equality for all.

In the nation created by Blackbeard, the only rule is power.

The strongest person, of course, is the emperor.

The castle gates behind them slowly opened.

Lafitte was dressed in a pristine white gown and held a silver cane in her hand.

He wasn't wearing his top hat today, unlike usual.

Instead, he will preside over the following ceremonies as the Kingdom's Chief of Ceremonies and the Master of Ceremonies for the Coronation.

He glanced at the high platform outside the castle, which was already prepared.

The video Den Den Mushi are scattered throughout Beehive Island.

Newsbird and the underground journalists also all entered the designated area.

This ceremony will not only be witnessed by the pirates on the island.

Just like the previous world declaration, it will be broadcast worldwide via video.

Lafitte leaned slightly forward, a graceful smile playing on his lips.

"It's time."

"My King."

Blackbeard turned around.

Upon hearing the word "King," the smile on his face became even more pronounced.

"Thief, hahaha!"

"Let's go."

The road leading from the castle to the square.

The core members of the Blackbeard Pirates are all in place.

Blackbeard wasn't worried at all about anyone opposing his claim to the throne.

Anyone who dares to oppose them only needs to die in front of everyone, and the rest will naturally understand what it means to submit.

The castle gates were fully opened.

The cheers from outside surged in like waves.

Blackbeard donned a newly made black cloak.

The inside of the cloak was embroidered with the three skull flags of the Blackbeard Pirates.

His chest was adorned with gold and jewels plundered from various countries.

He did not cover up his severed arm.

The empty sleeves were deliberately placed in the most conspicuous position.

That is humiliation.

It was also the hatred he displayed to everyone.

Blackbeard walked out of the castle step by step.

The pirates on both sides of the road quickly retreated.

The video Den Den Mushi simultaneously rolled its eyes, aiming the camera at his figure.

He stepped onto the steps covered with a red carpet.

step.

step.

They walked toward the throne at the highest point of the island.

In the center of the high platform.

A huge throne was placed there.

The throne is decorated with gold, black iron, and sea stone.

The handrails on both sides are carved with monsters formed from darkness and the entanglement of souls.

Behind the throne.

The fourth road sign, with its historical inscription, stands tall.

Blackbeard deliberately placed the stone tablet here.

His throne and the final ticket to Laugh Tale appear in the same frame.

It was as if it were announcing to the whole world.

The path to becoming the Pirate King, the truth of the world, and the future era are all now in his grasp.

Lafitte walked to the edge of the platform.

The cane tapped the ground gently.

thump.

The Den Den Mushi (a type of electric telephone insect) simultaneously opened its mouth.

The sound across the entire Beehive Island quickly subsided.

"Pirates from all over the world."

"A fugitive wanted by the World Government."

"A person who refuses to bow down to the Celestial Dragons."

"Welcome to Beehive Island."

The noise gradually subsided. Everyone looked towards the high platform.

Lafitte slowly opened his arms.

"Starting today."

"Honeycomb Island is no longer just a temporary hideout for pirates."

"It will become a real country."

"One that does not belong to a world government."

"Disobeying the Celestial Dragons."

"A nation that belongs only to pirates!"

After a brief silence.

Excited cheers immediately erupted from below.

"A pirate nation!"

"Honeycomb Island!"

"To hell with the world government!"

For many people who have nowhere to go.

These words have an irresistible appeal.

They were wanted by the World Government, expelled from their homeland, and hunted by the Navy.

Now, finally someone has made a promise to them.

This place will become their country.

Lafitte went on to announce the rules for the new country.

"There is no heavenly gold here."

"There are no laws established by a world government."

"Anyone who enters Beehive Island can become a citizen of this country."

"wealth."

"territory."

"status."

"Even high-ranking positions within the Blackbeard Pirates."

"Everything can be obtained through combat!"

"As long as they perform outstandingly in the upcoming world events."

"Then you can become a general, lord, and fleet commander of the new nation!"

The gazes of countless pirates below the stage gradually turned fervent.

They don't care whether these promises can actually be fulfilled.

All you need to do is believe that as long as you follow Blackbeard, you will have the chance to go from an unknown pirate to a victor of the new era.

Behind the high platform.

Several waiters slowly carried out a tray covered with red velvet.

Center of the tray.

There was a newly made crown on the table.

The crown is predominantly black.

The edges are inlaid with a large number of gold gemstones.

The front is engraved with the three skulls of the Blackbeard Pirates.

According to the process originally designed by Lafitte.

A carefully selected master of ceremonies should personally place the crown on Blackbeard's head to make the ceremony more formal.

But the waiter had just arrived in front of them.

Blackbeard then reached out and grabbed the crown.

"This kind of thing."

"I'll wear it myself!"

He unceremoniously placed the crown on his head.

The size is not quite right, and it even looks a bit crooked.

Blackbeard, however, didn't care at all.

He turned and strode toward the throne.

He then sat down heavily.

One foot is on the edge of the platform, and the only remaining arm is outstretched forward.

The black mist of the Dark-Dark Fruit rose continuously from behind the throne.

The black flames created by the Soul-Soul Fruit swirled around them.

Blackbeard looked down at the pirates below and burst into loud laughter.

"Thief, hahaha!"

"Starting today!"

"I'm no longer just one of the Four Emperors!"

"I am—"

"Black Emperor!"

The man with the black beard raised his arm high.

"A nation belonging to pirates!"

"Officially established today!"

"My people!"

"Cheer for your emperor!"

The square fell silent briefly.

Bashas was the first to raise both fists.

"Black Emperor!"

The Blackbeard Pirates followed closely behind.

"Black Emperor!"

"Black Emperor!"

Under their influence.

The pirates in the square also began to shout loudly.

Some people are driven by fear.

Some people are affected by alcohol.

Many more were completely captivated by the extravagant coronation ceremony and Blackbeard's undisguised ambition.

The shouts grew more and more unified, spreading from the high platform to the streets, and then from the streets to the port.

"Black Emperor!"

"Black Emperor!"

"Black Emperor!"

The entire Beehive Island trembled amidst cheers.

Blackbeard sat on the throne, enjoying an unprecedented throng of patrons.

This moment.

He seemed to have surpassed the other four emperors.

It's as if I can already see myself ascending the world throne and trampling everyone under my feet in the future.

The cheers lasted for a long time.

The man with the black beard slowly raised his hand.

The sounds on the island gradually subsided.

"Everyone who comes to Beehive Island!"

"Listen up, all of you!"

"From now on—"

He was preparing to announce the official opening of the world event.

A piercing alarm suddenly sounded from the direction of the port.

Waaah—!

Waaah—!

The watchtower, which had been given life by the Soul-Soul Fruit, raised its head at the same time.

Lafitte pressed the tiny Den Den Mushi to his ear.

"What happened?"

The port guard's urgent voice came from the other end.

"Sky!"

"Look at the sky!"

Everyone on the platform looked up at the same time.

The once pitch-black night sky is rapidly brightening.

A streak of orange-red flame rose from the horizon.

Initially, it was just a bright spot of light.

In the blink of an eye.

The point of light then began to expand wildly.

The thick clouds were tinged with crimson.

The seawater in Beehive Island harbor began to boil due to the rapidly rising temperature.

Countless pirates stopped cheering and looked into the distance in terror.

A huge ball of fire rose from the other side of the bay.

The flames continued to rotate and expand.

It eventually transformed into a fiery sun that almost covered the night sky.

The clouds, shells, and soul-stirred waves along the way were all instantly evaporated.

Blackbeard suddenly stood up from the throne.

The firelight was reflected in his suddenly contracted pupils.

The distant sea.

A massive whale-shaped prow is slowly emerging from the night sky.

At the very front of the bow.

A figure engulfed in flames leaped high into the air.

An angry roar echoed through the night sky above Beehive Island.

"Great Flame Ring—!"

The fiery sun crossed the sea and crashed down towards the harbor of Beehive Island.

"Emperor Yan!!"
