A magic merchant infiltrating Fairy Tail

In the original storyline, Whitebeard's dying words, "The One Piece exists," rendered all of the Navy's efforts futile. Although they appeared to have won the war, they had actually lost.

But now the situation is completely the opposite. Whitebeard didn't even have time to let out that roar, and the Great Pirate Era was about to end before it could even begin its second spring.

On the surface, the Navy suffered a crushing defeat in this war. Not only did they fail to execute the Pirate King's bloodline, but they also failed to preserve Whitebeard's body. Their headquarters was repeatedly attacked by pirates, and even the Admirals and Fleet Admirals were dispatched but still couldn't defeat a group of pirates. They lost all face.

However, the new era ushered in by Kira was destined to be incompatible with the arrogant and domineering pirates like Shiki, and the release of the Road Poneglyphs and ancient texts greatly accelerated the discovery of the One Piece.

In the long run, the pirate era has come to an end, so it should be considered a victory for the Navy.

After the war, the Navy faced three major challenges: first, the treatment of wounded soldiers on the battlefield; second, the severe damage to its headquarters base, which needed to be rebuilt; and third, the relocation of Impel Down prison to this location, requiring a reasonable solution for the Navy.

At this difficult time, Kira decisively stepped forward and, on behalf of the Fairy Guild, expressed goodwill to the Navy, saying, "We can help, but you must pay a reward."

Sengoku initially didn't want to agree because he felt Kira's ideology was as dangerous as the Revolutionary Army's and that it wasn't suitable for him to associate with the Navy. However, at that moment, the Five Elders called and said they could agree to Kira's request, and they would pay the reward.

Actually, they wanted to take this opportunity to see just how capable Kira really was, so they could formulate their next course of action. As for money, they had no shortage of it.

Faced with orders from his superiors, Sengoku ultimately had no choice but to bow his head and agree, engaging in friendly negotiations with Kira.

In the end, Kira asked Sengoku for 50 billion Berries, equivalent to the head of one of the Four Emperors, and Sengoku agreed. However, he immediately asked the Five Elders for 100 billion Berries.

Kira never imagined that his first big sum of money since coming into this world (not counting Shandora's gold) would be obtained in this way.

Since he was paid, Kira had to do his job. He used his full-range healing magic to treat the wounded Marines, but he only healed half of their injuries. He then used time magic to restore Marineford to half its original state, so at least they wouldn't have to worry about falling into a pit halfway there.

Finally, in dealing with Impel Down, he didn't cut corners, but honestly used spatial magic to transfer it back to the Calm Belt.

Such places that imprison evil people should stay where they belong!

The entire process took less than half a day. When Kira returned to Sabaody Archipelago, he happened to arrive just in time for a dinner party. He ate and drank heartily, then took a bath and went to sleep.

That night, Kira, who had already gotten into bed, suddenly opened his eyes.

A pair of sky-blue eyes shone brightly in the night, like two eerie sapphires.

"Strange, why do I feel like something's missing? Or is it something very important?"

Chapter 986 Changes in the World

The next day, Kira ate breakfast while looking at the freshly printed newspaper and finally remembered what he had overlooked the day before.

The newspapers still used eye-catching headlines like "major event" and "shocking" to publish the major events that happened yesterday, clearly explaining the causes and consequences.

Kira's first notice was of the places he had overlooked—red hair and black beard.

The Red-Haired Pirates originally intended to come to the rescue and stop the war, but they unexpectedly encountered the Blackbeard Pirates overseas. After the two sides fought, the Blackbeard Pirates were all wiped out and sank to the bottom of the sea, their fate unknown.

By the time they arrived at Marineford, the war was over. Kira was taking Impel back to the Calm Belt at that time, so they didn't run into him.

Upon realizing he was late, Shanks could only shrug and slink back to the New World to continue maintaining the balance between the various factions.

In the days that followed, astonishing news continued to emerge from the high seas.

Whitebeard died, and his pirates suffered casualties in the war. The remaining crew left with Ace, Rayleigh, Luffy, and others, but it seems they did not return to the New World. Instead, they took his body back to their hometown.

As for the territory originally under Whitebeard's control, it was divided between Big Mom and Shiki, who recruited many pirates who escaped from Impel Down prison during the war.

In other words, Shiki replaced Whitebeard as the new Yonko.

But compared to the change of the Four Emperors, there is another piece of news that has an even greater impact on the world: the Fairy Guild has actually released a copy of the Road Poneglyphs and explained their meaning to people all over the world.

This plunged all the pirates into a state of extreme excitement, as if the One Piece was right before their eyes.

One road sign text is placed each day, and only rubbings are available, not translations. If someone wants a translation, they have to go to the Fairy Guild headquarters to find someone to translate it, which of course costs money.

However, this operation was no challenge for the big shots in the new world. They first sent someone to buy a translator, and then, through black market exchanges, the translated text was quickly circulated widely.

Before long, almost everyone on the sea had one.

Kira wasn't surprised by this, since he hadn't originally planned to make much money from it anyway. So he simply handed the translation to Morgans to distribute, and then the various factions began their adventure to find the fourth Road Poneglyph.

Among them were some 'mathematicians' who, like Kira, tried to calculate the location of Laugh Tale using the three known locations, but all of them failed in the end, and could only pin their hopes on the last piece of road sign text.

Rumors about the whereabouts of the fourth signpost text have long circulated within the underground: it is in the hands of a burned man who travels in a pure black ship, and anyone who tries to approach him will be swallowed by a massive whirlpool.

Many people made speculations about this, and rumors spread like wildfire, but no one really believed any of them.

Until one day, an anonymous journalist said that he learned from a big shot that the burned man was on the island of giants, Elbaf, while the black ship and the giant whirlpool were a group of island whales in the West Sea.

Some even say that the last signpost points to the legendary 'Peak of the Western Heaven'.

These messages were quickly believed by many, and a large group of pirates rushed to Elbaf to verify their authenticity.

Giant Island is a powerful island, and it's also Shanks' territory. After realizing that it had become a target of everyone, it immediately took precautions. As a result, it became difficult for pirates to even enter the area, let alone land on the island.

This directly attracted the covetous eyes of the other three 'Four Emperors'.

Not long after, news spread in the New World that "Golden Lion stormed Elbaf but was defeated by Shanks." This made everyone believe the rumor even more, but also made them more wary of Shanks and Elbaf.

And all of this has nothing to do with Kira.

He is currently leading his guildmates on team-building trips around the world, with Dressrosa as their first stop.

Dressrosa is Doflamingo's territory. When Killer and his crew arrived on the island, he was immediately informed. However, he dared not act recklessly, because the person in front of him was someone who could beat Kaido and Sengoku to a pulp.

Kira waited a long time, but instead of the protagonist's typical "looking down on people," he was greeted by a large group of exotic, passionate, and hot dancers.

Fortunately, he was determined and did not fall into the trap of beauty like those perverts in the guild.

Under Doflamingo's arrangement, all members of the mage group enjoyed a 90% discount on everything, from food and drinks to entertainment and shopping, which made Kira somewhat embarrassed to expose the darkness here.

Sugar, an adult loli under Doflamingo's command, is a user of the 'Hobby-Hobby Fruit'. She can turn anyone she touches into a toy and force them to work endlessly. At the same time, those turned into toys will be erased from the memories of everyone in the world.

The more vibrant and sunny Dressrosa is, the darker its true nature becomes; it's almost a microcosm of the Holy Land of Marlenejois.

In the end, Kira succumbed to the pangs of conscience. After eating, drinking, playing, shopping sprees, and enjoying himself for three whole days, and after taking advantage of Doflamingo, he turned around and reported the island's filth and corruption to the Navy, and then used sleep magic to shroud the island.

Only after discovering that the island was in chaos did he and his companions leave, satisfied.

The next day, the newspapers published Doflamingo's crimes and removed him from the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Since it was Aokiji who was dispatched this time, there was no embarrassing incident of an "admiral kneeling" as in the original story.

A few days later, Kira received another invitation from the Golden Emperor. The man had somehow learned that Kira had obtained the legendary Golden City and wanted to do business with him.

Tesoro, the "Golden Emperor," is a businessman who controls 20% of the world's wealth. He is a user of the Gold-Gold Fruit, which allows him to control gold he comes into contact with, but he cannot create gold out of thin air. His fruit has been developed to the point of awakening, allowing him to assimilate any object he comes into contact with into gold. His weakness is that he is afraid of water.

Kira, thinking "a fool wouldn't pass up a chance to make money," led his crew to the gold ship, and also brought Enel along to help transport the gold later.

The two sides were initially on good terms, but Tesoro was far less insightful and composed than Doflamingo, and in less than half a day, he sent his subordinate Baccarat to cheat.

Kira was prepared for this 'Lucky Fruit' user, but he couldn't resist the idiot in his team who fell for his tricks after just a few words, instantly losing all the money he had earned.

Kira seized the opportunity to lash out, flipping the table and ending the game. He unleashed a massive flood that drenched the entire city, and in the process, beat up Tesoro and his men.

Afterwards, while contacting the Navy, Enel used Raiden to refine all the gold into portable gold ingots and gold balls, easily taking possession of the 'Golden Emperor's Treasure'.

This time, the navy dispatched Admiral candidates Chaton and Momousagi. Facing Kira, they wisely refrained from asking questions such as why the huge merchant ship was bare or where the treasure on board had gone.

After eliminating two mini-bosses, Kira turned his attention to Vegapunk.

First, he used spatial magic to move the entire Egghead Island to the Torant Sea and place it in the very center of the 'Fairy Kingdom'. Then, he used his immense strength and wealth to persuade Vegapunk to join him.

Impressed by Kira's approachable manner, the old man happily agreed to Kira's plan to "research new star technology".

Kira then captured Wapol, who had become the world's richest man, and formed a science research team with him, Vegapunk, and Enel.

Enel provided the energy, Wapol provided various metal resources, and Vegapunk was responsible for turning all sorts of outlandish technologies into reality. With the cooperation of the three, they generated a continuous stream of new technologies for the entire Fairy Kingdom.

Under Kira's coercion, Vegapunk had to stop all his work and focus his research on crops. Kira even went to the Land of Sand and borrowed Shinobu, who was moving stones, from Crocodile for three days to use her Ripe Ripe Fruit for research.

The experiment went very smoothly. In less than a month, Vegapunk quickly created a machine that could make crops mature rapidly. After a period of fermentation and promotion, the Fairy Kingdom instantly became a major food exporter in the pirate world.

With no need to hand over 'heavenly gold' or worry about pirates causing trouble, the Fairy Kingdom was exceptionally developed, transportation was extremely convenient, and with its vast land and sparse population, it instantly became the utopia of dreams for all the poor people in the world.

Kira's various actions naturally aroused the hostility of the World Government, which sent out many CP agents, but these people could not get in touch with Vegapunk, let alone magic.

Although they possess the ancient weapon of 'Uranus,' they lack the 'Mother's Flame' created by Vegapunk as an energy source, which would require a long time to replenish. Therefore, they are unable to carry out the 'light-extinguishing' operation against the Fairy Kingdom.

Two months after the 'Marineford War', the world had changed dramatically.

The New World has become a 'three emperors and one council' structure, and all pirates are focused on the last piece of Road Poneglyphs, but Shanks and the warriors of Elbaf still stand strong.

After the Marineford War, the Navy was severely weakened. Sengoku and Garp retired and went behind the scenes. Later, Akainu and Aokiji disagreed and fought over the position of the new Fleet Admiral. In the end, Akainu took the position, while Aokiji left the Navy and joined the Fairy Guild to achieve his own justice in another way.

There are vague rumors that Garp's trusted disciple deserted during the war and was later killed by criminals who followed the "call to surrender." Some say he was secretly executed by the Navy, while others say he was killed by pirates to stop the war from continuing. In short, there are different accounts, but none of them are honorable. This matter caused a great uproar, but Garp did not deny it. Instead, he looked much older.

Perhaps the only thing he can be thankful for is that his two grandsons are still alive?

The Fairy Kingdom's territory expands daily, and with each island it conquers, it integrates it into the Fairy Kingdom, showing a trend of 'connecting the world into one'.

Based on Egghead Island and the 35 islands that were originally part of the Kingdom of Treasures, it transformed the 'islands' into 'cities', and each city had a branch of the 'Fairy Guild' whose members were responsible for maintaining local peace and order.

Under their management, ordinary people and all guild members gradually accepted an equal and free way of life.

Chapter 987 I'm sorry, but the president made me do it!

End of the year 1520 in the Haiyuan calendar.

Almost half a year has passed since Kira and the others arrived in this world. All the mages who came to this world are now living peacefully in the Fairy Kingdom.

Since the Road Poneglyphs and ancient script were revealed, the pirates have been coming up with new dramas every two or three days, but so far, there is no concrete evidence that the last piece of the Road Poneglyphs is in Shanks' hands, on Elbaf Island.

The giants are also divided into different tribes and kingdoms. These tribes and kingdoms, large and small, together have more than eight thousand warriors of the right age. Although there are occasional disagreements between the tribes, they maintain a unified attitude towards the outside world.

Anyone who wants to come to the island, whether they are pirates, marines, revolutionaries, or agents of the World Government, will be rejected by all the giants if they cannot gain their approval.

It is worth mentioning that these giants possess exceptional craftsmanship skills. Their ability to forge weapons and armor is even superior to that of Wano Country. There are even rumors that these skills were bestowed upon them by the gods in ancient times.

Their massive size, advanced equipment, battle maniacs, long lifespans, and large numbers make Elbaf the most fortified fortress in the world today.

Because of the rumor that "the last piece of text is above Elbaf", Elbaf is now very exclusive, and apart from old friends Shanks, basically no one can get close to it.

Meanwhile, the Revolutionary Army approached Kira.

In recent months, thanks to the crop ripening machine developed by Vegapunk, the Fairy Kingdom has become the world's number one grain producer and exporter. Furthermore, its advanced maritime transportation has greatly reduced the pressure on many countries that were originally struggling to survive. In addition, the kingdom welcomes all who come and allows anyone to settle down, making its global influence far ahead of other countries.

The Revolutionary Army had mixed feelings about the Fairy Kingdom's actions.

The good news is that those who had no hope of survival can finally live on; the bad news is that as a result, no one will think of rebelling against the World Government anymore.

Kira's answer to this was—
