New World, Holy Church started to become lively without any action.
Countless heroes began to emerge one after another, and the struggle between the two major forces, the navy and the pirates, reached a fever pitch. Countless fresh blood continued to join the two major forces.
If Pirate King Roger's words "I want my treasure!" started the pirate era, then Holy Church's sanctions quickly pushed this era to its peak.
East Blue, Goa Kingdom, at this time, almost all the famous newspaper centers in the world are gathered here. And this city is also changing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
It is expanding every day. The original tall City Wall has long since disappeared without a trace, replaced by glass buildings. Countless novel things have appeared in this city. Coupled with the free and relaxed atmosphere, as well as fair and strict laws, it increasingly shows that it is incompatible with this world.
Countless reporters who have just arrived, or those who have been here for a while, all lament that maybe the beginning of a new era will begin with the weakest East Blue.
Every day, countless new things and novelties are spread across the sea from various newspapers.
Although Holy Church has not settled in New World, countless heroes of New World never dare to underestimate this organization and are paying attention to the developments of Holy Church all the time.
However, apart from managing Goa Kingdom well, Holy Church seems to be indifferent to other things, which makes many heroes gradually become puzzled.
With the various reports on Holy Church by major reporters, the people of the world have gradually understood what the organization Holy Church is and what its goals are!
However, it is precisely because of the increasing understanding that the lawless heroes of New World become more and more fearful.
As strong men, they enjoy the fruits of freedom wantonly and taste the happiness brought by being strong. How can they tolerate themselves being equal to ordinary civilians?
Although there are many knowledgeable people who approve of Holy Church's attitude towards governing, many more people hold hatred and disdain for Holy Church. Of course, this does not include civilians.
It should be said that most civilians are looking forward to Holy Church's early arrival.
However, Holy Church seemed to have taken root and developed in the Goa Kingdom, which not only made many civilians yearn for it, but also caused a lot of disappointment.
Time passed quickly amidst the mixture of many things. The end of the fourth year of Great Pirate Era quietly passed by, ushering in the fifth year of The Great Pirates.
On this day, Goa Royal Capital, countless reporters took newly developed equipment and set up long guns and cannons at the port of Goa Royal Capital. What were they talking about with red faces?
"Vivian, are you sure the boat is made of iron?" Nako asked noncommittally.
"It's not wrong. People living here told the newspaper a few days ago that occasionally one or two ships made of iron pass by on the sea. More than one person saw this!" Vivian nodded in confirmation, and then carefully deployed the new equipment purchased from Holy Church.
Compared with natural products such as Den Den Mushi or shooting bugs, the mechanical camera equipment developed by Holy Church is even more admirable. It can adjust the distance and resolution at will. Now, as long as there is such a device in the industry, it will be a guest of all major newspapers. It is an amazing existence.
This is also one of the reasons why major newspapers come to East Blue to join in the fun, that is, the camera equipment sold by Holy Church is always in short supply and will be sold out within an hour of being released.
At this time, not only Vivian and their Dawn Newspaper got the news, but World Economy News Paper, the largest newspaper on the sea, was also inside. Of course, was also inside World Government's Intelligence personnel, after all, if there is really Ironclad Warship traveling on the sea, it will definitely change the pattern of the sea, and World Government has to pay attention to it.
At this moment, after a brief and intense negotiation, countless reporters were all staring at the sea level. As the sun gradually rose higher.
Several small black dots appeared on the sea, from far to near. As they passed through the morning fog, many reporters widened their eyes and looked at the paintings appearing in the camera. They couldn't help but raise their heads and look over.
The gray-silver hull was different from the bloated sailboat with smooth curves. There were no traditional white sails, but there were many towering turrets. As the fleet slowly approached, the huge hull made many reporters hold their breath for a moment.
"How on earth can such a big iron ship sail on the sea? How can it not sink?" a reporter exclaimed.
"Is it because of Devil Fruit!" Intelligence staff member World Government pretending to be a reporter secretly thought.
"Vivian, what do you think that giant ship with nothing in the middle, like a playground, is for?" Nako pointed at Aircraft Carrier, which was surrounded by many frigates, with confusion in his eyes.
"You ask me how I know, the stuff produced by Holy Church must be useful!" Vivian replied angrily.
Nako glanced sideways at Vivian, then opened his eyes wide and continued to look at the approaching fleet.
"It's really big!"
"What is that?" Nako pointed at several huge bubbles that suddenly appeared on the sea.
"Is it Sea King!"
For a moment, the reporters all picked up their cameras and wanted to run away.
However, while they were still hurriedly cleaning up, they saw several huge black hats rising up in a row, with the golden flag of Holy Light on them.
"This... this actually emerged from the bottom of the sea. Holy Church There is nothing they can't do!" A reporter wearing a black leather hat said in shock.
However, at this moment, a sonic boom sounded in the sky, and a white flying object in a column with the shape of a human figure was seen in the distance approaching the fleet quickly.
The sonic boom dragged out long white sea lines on the sea!
"We're about to collide!" Countless reporters shouted in panic.
However, the imagined collision of Kakkō did not happen. The white flying object arrived in the sky above Warship, which was like a rectangular playground, stopped steadily, and then slowly and neatly sat on the platform.
Only then did many reporters understand what this rectangular playground-like ship was used for, and everyone was silent for a long time.
"This is East Blue First Fleet! Daily training has been completed, please return now!"
"Okay, please come back immediately!"
As the sound of the radio station fell, Armored Fleet was seen making a beautiful big flick, drawing beautiful arcs in the sea, and slowly disappeared in front of the reporter's eyes.
Many reporters could not recover for a long time as they watched the warship go away. For the first time, they saw the power of steel.
Then my face turned red with excitement, thinking of the Photograph I took today, which is undoubtedly another big news.
Twos and threes excitedly discussed the role of these battleships. Although these battleships did not demonstrate their attack power, just by looking at the cannons on the battleships, everyone understood that the firepower could not be that weak.
The next day, countless newspapers on the sea flew across the sea through newspaper delivery birds.
Marine Headquarters Meeting Room, Sengoku looked at the newspaper in silence.
"A new era is coming. The emergence of ironclads will destroy all sailing ships. The trinity of strikes on the sea, sea and sky will completely change all naval battle situations. The future will definitely belong to Holy Church! We can predict that when Holy Church has its own navy, it will definitely usher in a large-scale expansion!"
Looking at the passionate words above and the hull of an ironclad ship that was different from a sailing ship, Sengoku silently put down the newspaper. At this moment, he only felt that his whole body was full of pressure, and he was a little breathless.
At the same time, the naval officers at Meeting Room also looked silent, including Three Admirals, who had already returned, and they were all silent.
"This time our navy will face unprecedented challenges, everyone! The navy has reached a critical moment of life and death. I hope everyone can uphold the justice of the navy." Sengoku said leisurely.
"It's Marshal!" The naval officers' answers were still strong, but they all knew in their hearts that once they fought Holy Church, the navy's chances of winning would be very small.
