The Three Hundred Sixty-Sixth Chapter: Who Will Save Us?! And Hope!

It must be said that although it is now the version of Conqueror's Haki, Observation Haki is still the most unique of all types of Haki.

Different people's Observation Haki often has different effects.

Among them, the most remarkable are those who are born with the ability to awaken Awakening Observation Haki, such as Redfield and Queen Otohime.

Their Observation Haki is often even more amazing than that of Devil Fruit.

Now, having completed its second evolution, Roa can clearly read the emotions in other people's hearts, which is basically equivalent to mind reading.

However, he is still far from reaching Redfield's level.

Redfield was even able to read other people's memories.

For example, right now, Red is going through the memories of this Space Pirates.

Everyone looked at him expectantly.

Ultimately, who can resist being interested in things outside their own world?

This world is already so wonderful and diverse, with so many exciting stories unfolding. What kind of joys and sorrows are playing out in the vast and boundless universe?

Kaido, in particular, didn't even blink, staring intently at Redfield.

Although the world will soon become the way he has always dreamed of.

But then there's no goal left.

And because of the presence of Pure Gold, his life will be very, very long.

Was he simply going to do nothing for the long years to come, quietly awaiting death?

How is that possible?!

Therefore, Kaido felt he needed a new battlefield!

The stars and the sea—isn't that perfect?

Just hearing about it makes my heart race!

Amidst the expectant gazes of everyone, after a long while, Redfield finally released her grip.

The terrified Space Pirates fell to the ground, scrambling backward to get away from the monster that had caught him completely off guard.

"How was it, Red?"

Kaido, unable to contain himself any longer, shouted, "What's going on in space?!"

What's going on?

Redfield hesitated for a moment, then gave a strange laugh. "If I had to say, it doesn't seem to be that different from the world we're familiar with."

"Oh?"

Roa raised an eyebrow with interest. "I'd like to hear more."

"The so-called vast universe is actually like a super-enhanced version of the ocean."

Redfield said, "Each inhabited island is like a country on the sea, with countless Space Pirates roaming among them."

"We need nautical charts to navigate the seas, Space Pirates need star charts too."

"We need a compass to navigate the Four Seas, Space Pirates also have corresponding positioning devices."

"We have special Grand Line that can only be guided by Log Pose and Eternal Pose. There are also many special star systems in the universe that can only be guided by specific devices."

"Hahahaha!"

The Golden Lion laughed so hard he could barely stand up straight. "Such a thing actually happens! It seems the Creator, who created everything, has been a bit lazy!"

"Interesting!!"

Kaido's lips curled into a wide grin, his face beaming with barely concealed excitement. "Red! Of course, there are incredibly powerful beings in the universe too!"

Redfield glanced down at the terrified Space Pirates and said, "This guy is just a small-time pirate sailing in a remote star system. He happened to hear about the legends left behind by the Birka people in space a long time ago, so he came here to search for treasure."

"His understanding of the universe isn't very deep, but precisely because of that, those great pirates who roam the stars and whose Daimyo he's long admired must be quite remarkable!"

"Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh!!"

Kaido laughed, laughed loudly, laughed wildly. He almost impatiently turned to look at Roa, who was also listening intently, "Hey! Roa! When are we going to conquer the stars?"

"Don't rush, Big Brother Kaido,"

Roa raised the corners of his mouth. "At least we need to be fully prepared first."

"Then hurry up!"

It's clear that Kaido is in a real hurry.

"However, Red,"

Roa looked at Redfield, "In the universe, every planet is separated by an enormous distance, especially between planets with life, where the distance is astronomical. Traveling through space must not be an easy task."

Even the speed of light, when judged on a cosmic scale, is no different from the speed of a snail.

How did those Space Pirates manage to roam the stars and make their names known throughout the universe?

"Oh, this?"

Redfield said, "Because there exists a special kind of black hole in the universe, which is like a portal to Imu; entering it will instantly transport you to another star system!"

"Almost every large star system contains many such black holes! Therefore, even interstellar travel is much, much faster than imagined!"

"In addition, almost every star system contains numerous acceleration zones, enabling spaceships to travel at near-light speeds."

"Oh! I see!"

Roa couldn't help but click his tongue in astonishment.

He somewhat agreed with what Uncle Golden Lion had just said.

Could it be that a creator truly exists in this world?

Everything was too coincidental, and too focused on convenience, wasn't it?

This world, this universe, seems to have been made specifically for adventurers.

"That solves the problem."

Roa chuckled, "Then, we can begin to gather our strength!"

"We need to possess sufficient power; even in the vast universe, we must not be weak!"

"Of course!!"

Kaido, extremely excited.

Not only him, but everyone else also looked eager to try.

Boss is right, compared to the universe, this Blue Star is far too small!

The journey ahead should be to the stars and the sea!

At this moment, Robin gently grasped Roa's hand and said with some concern, "Is there any danger in space?"

"Isn't this exactly what you've been hoping for?"

Roa squeezed the woman's hand.

"Your departure is certainly a good thing for this planet."

Robin said softly, "But I also hope you can live a good life."

"How gentle you are, Robin."

Roa sighed sincerely.

This care and love are absolutely genuine.

Who could withstand that?

Of course, the preparations won't be finished so quickly.

Next, the Calamity Company will plunder resources worldwide to build the strongest army.

Well, the initial plan is that the Calamity Knights will serve as ordinary soldiers at the grassroots level, and the Fallen Angel will serve as mid-level officers.

If we could truly build such a legion, then even the vast universe would surely have a place within us, right?

Therefore, the people of this world will have to suffer a little more once again.

To build an army of that caliber, the resources required would naturally be enormous.

Furthermore, although Redfield obtained a lot of information through the memories of that Space Pirates, it was still not detailed or complete enough.

Although he can access memories, he cannot read everything in minute detail like a supercomputer.

So, the next step is to hand it over to Vegapunk.

That guy is a true genius. If Redfield assists him, he should be able to master the language used by these Space Pirates very quickly.

Only then can we truly understand the detailed conditions of the universe.

At the same time, Judge will begin dismantling and studying the Space Pirates' ship.

That ship carries the star charts and positioning devices that Redfield mentioned are necessary for navigating in space. We need to study them thoroughly before we can talk about replicating them.

In short, preparations for conquering the stars and the sea have been fully launched.

Before that, we must first resolve the last unstable factor in the world.

Luffy, Shanks, don't keep me waiting!

That's what Roa was thinking.

Then, instead of Luffy, his Luffy were brought to Roa's side first.

"Oh?"

In the vast palace, decorated in a way that could only be described as luxurious, Roa looked down at the women below with great interest.

They were all brought back by his subordinates who had gone on the expedition.

Damn it, did I just reveal my secret that I like beautiful women?

However, many of them were acquaintances.

"Roa!! You scum!"

Despite her frail appearance, the pink-haired woman, her hands cuffed behind her back with Seastone shackles, stood tall and looked up at Roa, gritting her teeth and cursing.

"Let Hina go if you dare!! Hina will kill you!!"

This is Hina.

"Roa!! You bastard, what did you do to Professor Zephyr?!"

A beautiful woman with long, wavy, sea-blue hair, wearing a purple tank top and denim shorts, glared at Roa, shouting, "You bastard, just how far will you trample on justice?!"

Her name is Ain.

"Roa —you... you shouldn't get too cocky..."

The short-haired woman wearing glasses stammered a little, but still held her head high, saying, "Justice, it is, it cannot be destroyed!"

Her name is Tashigi.

"Oh."

Roa made a strange remark.

Kapzefa and his team are quite capable.

Give it a like first.

Kill me.

The speaker was a beautiful woman with short, vacant blond hair, her eyes lifeless. "Jonathan is dead, why didn't you kill me...?"

It took Roa a while to remember who this woman was.

She's the cook's wife of the Marine Vice Admiral at G-8 base.

That's awesome, and there's even a widow.

Garp, you rascal!

Don't do it again!

But what caught Roa's attention the most were the two sisters huddled together, trembling.

The one with blue hair is Nojiko, and the one with orange hair is Nami.

Yes, that's good.

Roa nodded in satisfaction.

The guy who sent those two sisters here has a lot of potential.

Nami was indeed terrified at this moment.

She didn't even dare to look up at the boy sitting on the throne.

It's all that damned Captain Nezumi!

He used the Cocoyasi Village as leverage to force the two sisters to serve Roa.

Nami wanted to run away, but she couldn't.

Cocoyasi Village is right there; if she refuses, everyone will be killed.

"Please be quiet."

While Roa remained quietly looking down at the panicked women, Robin, whom he was holding in his arms, stood up.

The woman slowly walked down the steps, looking at the women who were angry, terrified, or uneasy, her eyes revealing a slight sense of empathy and understanding.

"Whatever your reason for being here, I only have one thing to tell you: do not anger Roa,"

Robin said, "If you anger him, then you and everything you care about will be in for a nightmare."

"Especially you, sailors,"

Robin looked at the group of women from the Navy, "Don't think that just because the Navy has been destroyed, you have no weaknesses. Do you want to see Roa punish you by destroying a few islands to vent his anger?"

The navy personnel who had been glaring angrily at Roa just moments before instantly fell silent.

"Oh."

Roa sighed again, seemingly out of nowhere.

Is this how he's reorganizing his harem?

To be honest, there was absolutely no need to come here.

A cold, indifferent attitude has its own unique charm.

But.

He asked Hancock, who was still sitting in his lap, with great interest, "You two don't seem to mind at all? But I've heard that love is exclusive."

What can we do?

Hancock turned her head away awkwardly. "You like it this way, don't you!"

Wow, that's really touching.

Roa hugged Hancock tightly, his face filled with emotion.

Is this what they call the "first wife" in old-fashioned palace novels?

Quite interesting.

Time began to flow.

When the Calamity Company began preparations to venture into the stars, the world was plunged into an even greater catastrophe.

Countries all over the world were forced to hand over various mineral resources.

If there are absolutely no mineral resources, then that country will be destroyed, and all its citizens will be forcibly relocated to a nearby country that has mineral resources.

Furthermore, the Calamity Company organized mining exploration teams to explore for minerals on islands around the world.

Once discovered, civilians will be immediately relocated to mine it.

Anyway, the Calamity Company has recruited a large number of pirates, so manpower isn't a big problem, not to mention they also have the help of the Sea Beast.

People who were already overwhelmed were now in utter despair.

Even though the Revolutionary Army continued to cause trouble every now and then, people still couldn't see any hope.

In the midst of pain, torment, and despair, people can only pray in the depths of their hearts.

Someone, please save us!

Someone, please save us!

Meanwhile, on a deserted island in the East Blue.

"Wow!"

A figure screamed and flew backward, crashing into and shattering a rocky mountain behind it.

"Ouch, that hurts!"

The next instant, rubble exploded, and the figure leaped out, crashing heavily to the ground. "Shanks! You really want to kill me, don't you?!"

"Didn't Mr. Zephyr teach you, Luffy?"

Opposite him, Shanks held a sword in one hand, "Haki only evolves fastest when you're fiercely clashing with a truly powerful enemy!"

"In this world today, the only ones you can call formidable enemies, besides us, are those under Roa's command!"

"Dragon can't come to maintain secrecy, so I'll have to play the role of this formidable enemy! Are you scared?"

"How could that be! Bring it on!!"

The boy yelled and flew over.

Shanks nodded slightly.

This kid is getting stronger much faster than originally expected!

Perhaps--

In any case, time flows swiftly and silently.

Two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

It is currently the year 1522 of the Grand Line Calendar.
