Lord of the Stars of the Grand Line

As the three top members of the Beasts Pirates, each of them is incredibly stubborn, but when it comes to strength, Jack is far inferior to his two older brothers.
Zoro could easily take him down by himself without Crocodile even lifting a finger!
However, Jack, who possesses the Ancient Zoan-type Mammoth Fruit power, is only average in strength, but incredibly tough.
Faced with a tidal wave of enemies, Zoro couldn't spare any attention and allowed Jack, whom he had severely wounded, to slip away unnoticed.
However, the shockwave from the battle between Luo Feng and Barrett happened to hit Jack, who was almost at the shore, and the impact knocked him into the sea!
His presence had naturally been detected by Luo Feng and the others long ago. However, Luo Feng was also curious about the rare occurrence of fish-men surviving in water after eating Devil Fruits, so he kept him around without revealing anything.
Only now, as he was about to leave, did Luo Feng send down a meteorite to completely annihilate him!
The meteorite wasn't very big; after all, it was too close to the remaining half of Beehive Island, and Luo Feng didn't want to completely destroy his established base.
Even so, eliminating Jack is enough...
This place is not far from the shore, so the seawater is not very deep. Even if the meteorite reaches the seabed, it still has considerable impact force.
Faced with Luo Feng's sudden and violent attack, Jack, lying on the seabed, could do nothing and could hardly move. He could only open his bull-like eyes and watch helplessly as the meteorite hit his vital spot!
And so, Jack, the strongest officer of the Beasts Pirates, one of the Three Disasters, and the most stubborn of them all, successfully met his demise, never to have the chance to be the king of the ship again...
In the blink of an eye, a week has passed.
The great battle on Beehive Island has long been quelled, and even the Godfall Pirates have temporarily left the area.
No one revealed what happened here. Whether it was the remnants of the Whitebeard Pirates, Barrett, or the Godfall crew, none of the survivors spoke of it.
Despite this, what happened here still leaked out.
It was Morgans, that old fox, who revealed it again. Nobody knows where he got the information from. This guy seems to have a God's-eye view; nothing that happens at sea can escape his eyes!
Over a thousand great pirates have perished; in the Battle of Beehive Island, the Godfall Pirates have once again risen to the top!
Barrett's defeat! Just how powerful is the new Emperor of the Sea—Luo Feng?!
Unsurprisingly, after this news was released, the Godfall Pirates were once again the subject of discussion. The heat from the previous Marineford War and the Dressrosa War had not yet completely subsided when this shocking news appeared!
In an instant, the Godfall Pirates and Luo Feng once again found themselves in the eye of the storm. The people of the entire sea were even beginning to grow numb to this terrifying pirate crew that had repeatedly achieved dazzling feats in such a short period of time...
However, the Navy and the World Government welcomed this news.
Pirate infighting is something they'd love to see happen. The more pirates who die, the better, because that makes things easier for them.
More importantly, the World Government doesn't want the Godfall crew's popularity to fade; they'd love to see their fame grow even greater on the high seas!
In that case, sooner or later a truly powerful force will come after them, such as the other emperors, or the revolutionary army...
These are all hostile forces to the Navy and the World Government, and they are also behemoths on the high seas!
If these people were to fight each other, the World Government would probably be laughing all the way to the bank. Hindsight and post-war profiteering are their usual tricks!
Unfortunately, things did not develop as the World Government had hoped.
In the following year, the Godfall Pirates made almost no more shocking news, but their whereabouts on the sea never ceased.
During that year, quite a few forces went to spy on the Godfall gang; it's no exaggeration to say that this kind of thing happened almost every day.
However, no one dared to fire the first shot, no one dared to provoke this rapidly rising behemoth…
The World Government, however, has been waiting for the Dark Fruit for a whole year, but has not been able to obtain it at all.
Finally, Im, the person standing at the top of the World Government, gradually lost patience and summoned the Five Elders to Pangaea, the most important place in Maryjois, as the year was about to end!
Clearly, the World Government couldn't wait any longer and wanted to take the initiative, beginning to plot against the Godfall Pirates!
Chapter 333 The Most Prosperous Sea Area of the Future!
Time flies, and almost a year has passed since the Battle of Beehive Island.
To be precise, it's eleven months. In one more month, it will be exactly one year.
During these eleven months, the Godfall Pirates did not launch any further major battles against anyone. At most, they dealt with some spies from various forces and some foolish pirates.
During this period, the Godfall gang did only three things.
The first task was to build the Godfall Islands. After the Godfall group split into two groups, they built the Godfall Islands to a preliminary scale in less than a month.
The main island is the headquarters of the Godfall Pirates, and the Golden Entertainment City has long been moved from the Gran Tesoro and set up directly in the center of Beehive Island.
Closest to the main island is Dressrosa, the number one island, a complete island nation with over a million inhabitants, which no longer bears the tragic appearance it once was when it was persecuted by the Don Quixote family.
With Luo Feng repeatedly replenishing Nochigao's mana, Nochigao's strength increased rapidly, his progress was phenomenal, and he was in no way inferior to others!
In just four months, Nochi's Devil Fruit ability, which was 160, was enhanced several times over. Seven months ago, he truly possessed the strength to control large islands!
It was around that time that Luo Feng took Nochigao on a personal trip to Dressrosa.
King Riku and other members of the royal family, as well as the dwarves who were already living in the open, had already received the news from Violet and had been looking forward to this day.
Finally, on this day, their wish came true.
Nochi activated his ability, teleporting Dressrosa to the vicinity of Beehive Island, making it the primary island of the Godfall Islands!
After arriving here, everyone in the Kingdom of Dressrosa, from the royal family and residents to the dwarves, truly felt safe.
After a brief period of getting to know each other, these people were pleasantly surprised to find that, as expected, their former benefactors, despite being pirates, had never oppressed or interfered with them.
Moreover, resources and rare items that are of great help to the development of the kingdom are often transported from the direction of the main island!
Luo Feng and his companions also frequently visited Dressrosa. Their purpose in coming here was simply to shop, play, and have fun.
After so long, everyone in this country has gotten used to their presence, and the Godfall gang has become increasingly important in the hearts of the people here.
For a time, the Godfall Pirates were known as guardian deities in this country, with a status no lower than that of the royal family!
Even so, Luo Feng never interfered in anything within their country. He would rather avoid troublesome matters like managing the country than go out of his way to get involved.
What excites the people of Dressrosa even more is that upon arriving here, they discover that the seas here are not simply rich in resources.
It's important to understand that the sea area where their country was originally located was one of the few resource-rich sea areas in the New World, but compared to Beehive Island, it was like the difference between a goldfish and a whale!
That's way too far off!
It is precisely because of these abundant resources, coupled with the protection of the Godfall Sea Swamp Group, that Dressrosa has developed extremely rapidly in just over half a year!
Even the population has experienced explosive growth, increasing from hundreds of thousands to over a million in just six months, nearly tripling in size, which demonstrates the fertility of this sea area!
Of course, not only Dressrosa, but even before this country, the Sky Island had already been moved here and was now floating in the sky above this sea area.
Just as they had predicted, the people of Skypiea, whether natives or Shandians, were all as if they had seen a god when they saw the ship bearing the Godfall Pirates' insignia return. They almost immediately knelt down in worship!
They agreed to Luo Feng and the others' proposal without even considering it.
After witnessing Nochigo's ability to move islands, the people of Sky Island worshipped him as a god, behaving in an extremely exaggerated manner, almost to the point of hanging Luo Feng and the others on the wall and worshipping them...
While the behavior was indeed exaggerated, it was perfectly normal for a secluded kingdom like Sky Island, which had worshipped gods for centuries. (Alcohol)
Besides the Sky Islands, the Godfall crew also discovered several other incredibly prosperous islands during that year.
These islands vary in size, some are populated while others are sparsely populated, and some are even uninhabited, though they are home to many wild animals, each with its own unique characteristics.
Thus, after just eleven months of development, the Godfall Islands have already taken on the appearance that the Godfall crew had envisioned...
Today, this sea area is no longer the dilapidated and empty place it once was!
Centered on the central Beehive Island—Golden City, the islands extend outwards in more than three concentric rings!
Among them, there are as many as twenty or thirty islands, and more than a dozen of them are inhabited!
However, there are only two island nations of Dressrosa's scale. After all, island nations of this size are already quite large, and they are rare in the New World.
Nevertheless, the Godfall Islands are already quite prosperous. Although the number of islands is still less than that of the Sabaody Archipelago, their area, population, and level of prosperity absolutely surpass them! 5.
In less than a year, it has developed into this state. Water
If this trend continues, one can imagine that this sea area will become the true center of the new world, replacing all countries and cities, and becoming the most prosperous place on the entire ocean!
Chapter 334 Sublimation in the Great Battle: Comprehending the Overlord's Haki!
After several months of adjustment, the various island groups on the Godfall Islands have already established connections with each other.
Although there are still distinctions between countries and cities, people have unconsciously come to regard each other as a whole.
Even the Sky Islanders, who were initially the most shocking, are now commonplace.
With the cloud ladder constructed by the group of the fallen gods, the residents of the sky islands can now travel to Qinghai at any time, shop between these islands, and even live there.
Similarly, the other islands are also accessible at any time; visitors can come to the Sky Island to explore and even settle down.
With Luo Feng and others acting as intermediaries, even the traditionally xenophobic Sky Island people have abandoned this bad habit and get along very well with the residents of Qinghai. They have long since become accustomed to this way of life.
Just kidding, what's more important than faith than tradition?!
Compared to the 'gods' like Luo Feng, who are revered as faith by the Sky Island people, what are mere traditions worth!
Of course, besides developing the Godfall Islands, the Godfall crew did other things during that year as well.
The second thing was to transfer the Baroque Works organization, which was still in Alabasta, over.
As a continental country, Alabasta cannot relocate, but they have a formidable background and are a superpower, so there's no need to worry about them being targeted by any force.
Furthermore, Alabasta has long been Luo Feng's territory. With the Godfall Pirates' current reputation, there are probably no fools who would dare to cause trouble there.
Even though it's at the very beginning of the Grand Line!
Now that the Godfall Islands have been completed, there is no longer any need for Baroque Works to remain in Alabasta. When they went to relocate to the Sky Islands, they also transferred Baroque Works' main personnel and intelligence.
After returning to the New World, Luo Feng, mainly composed of the old members of Baroque, integrated all the foundations and intelligence of the Donquixote Family that remained in Dressrosa, as well as the underground market in the hands of the Golden Emperor Tesoro.
After that, Baroque effectively replaced the Don Quixote family and Tezzolo, becoming the largest and most powerful force controlling the underground market on this vast sea!
The underground market can be quite useful sometimes, and Luo Feng doesn't want to just throw it away.
Therefore, Baroque now has a dual identity: in addition to controlling the underground market, he is also an unofficial intelligence organization of the Godfall gang!
As for Baroque's headquarters, Luo Feng set it up on a beautiful but uninhabited island in the Godfall Islands.
After all, such organizations cannot operate in the open, and it would be somewhat inappropriate to keep them in cities within their own sphere of influence; it's better for them to remain isolated from the masses.
Back when Luo Feng and his group were still in Alabasta and had not yet set sail, Baroque's intelligence capabilities were already very strong, not much weaker than the Navy's intelligence organization.
Now, after various training and integrations, Baroque's abilities have reached a new level, enabling him to obtain a great deal of intelligence for the Godfall Pirates, including information hidden in the shadows or within various forces on the high seas.
In the past six months, Baroque has obtained a lot of intelligence from the Navy, the World Government, and other Four Emperors' spheres of influence and sent it to Luo Feng!
If we were to say that the first two things the Godfall Pirates did in the past year were both aimed at increasing their sphere of influence and gaining external assistance such as intelligence and underground markets.
