"This isn't an age where Overlords can do whatever they please anymore."
Roger waved a hand and said to Rocks with a smile.
"Oh? Is that so? Sounds like those subordinates of mine are doing pretty well these days. I wonder if they still recognize me as their former captain."
Hearing Roger's introduction, Rocks looked interested as well, eager to find out how his dear subordinates were doing now.
Then Rocks turned his gaze toward Adolf, wanting to see what the video Roger had mentioned was like.
Adolf had already anticipated that Rocks and Roger would be curious about the caliber of the world's current experts. With a smile, he took the tablet he had prepared in advance out of his coat.
Then he played the video previously filmed by the Oran Kingdom's Intelligence Department.
"The full video runs too long. This is the version edited by the Oran Empire, about an hour long. It should give you an idea of the strength of the world's strongest fighters."
Adolf introduced it with a smile.
As intense background music blared from the tablet, the majestic Red Line and Mary Geoise appeared on the screen, followed by the combined fleet led by Shiki.
The enormous fleet made Rocks cast another glance at Shiki. Its size and strength already far surpassed those of the former Rocks Pirates, yet this was only Shiki's own force and a small portion of Lind's elite troops.
It was truly hard to imagine just how far his dear subordinates had come in the years since his death.
The Rocks Pirates had fallen in the end. Even with his prestige and strength, he ultimately had no way to bring these subordinates, who already had ventures of their own, back together and rebuild the Rocks Pirates.
