It was the second day.
After the baptism of the great sea route, Dewey's sailboat finally arrived at one of the seven islands of origin.
This island of origin was not Whiskey Mountain.
This meant that the route Dewey and the other two took was different from the original version of the Pirates.
It was indeed not an easy task to choose the route of the Grass Hat Pirates out of the seven routes.
Dewey didn't mind and even heaved a sigh of relief.
He wasn't a chosen one like Luffy, who had provoked Shar Krokdal, one of the Seven Seas of Martial Kings, on the Island of Beginnings, and had obtained the permanent pointer of Arabastan twice.
If his route was the same as the Grass Hat Pirates, he would be in big trouble.
After the Whiskey Mountain was the " Small Garden " of the Primordial Island.
It would take a year to store the magnetic force there.
Without the Eternal Compass, choosing that route would be courting death.
"Is this the island of the great sea route? It seemed no different from the East China Sea!”
"It's very similar to Roguetown. It seems to be very prosperous here.”
Dewey and the other two arrived at the Island of Beginnings. It was not shaped like the cactus of Whiskey Peak, but rather an ordinary island.
They arrived at the port, where a large number of sailboats were docked.
It did not look like the Island of Beginnings at all. It looked more like a World Government member country with a prosperous kingdom.
"Yo, you're new!"
The sailboat sailed to a dock. Before it anchored, enthusiastic shouts came from below.
Looking at the man on the shore, Dewey and the other two looked at each other.
Thus, the three of them split the work. Nami and Carina lowered the sail and anchored, while Dewey jumped in.
"Newcomers, which sea area are you from? Do you want to buy a novice guide?”
The man took out a book and said,""For just 100,000 Bailey, you can get a very detailed guide to the great sea route. From then on, you will no longer be unfamiliar with the great sea route.”
"No, thank you."
Dewey politely refused, then asked,""How did you know we were new?”
"Very simple. This port is specially used to receive you newcomers.”
Seeing that Dewey wasn't fooled, the man's enthusiasm subsided, but he didn't give Dewey a hard time. Instead, he patiently answered his question,""You guys are quite lucky. Out of the seven sea routes, the island of origin of this sea route is the best. The newcomers who enter this sea route can be said to be the lucky ones who have received the blessing of darkness.”
"Oh, why?"
Dewey raised his eyebrows and asked.
"It's very simple. This is the territory of the Dark World.”
The man turned around and pointed in the direction of the center of the island. There stood a tower-like building with three flags hanging from it." Do you see those three flags? This is the territory of the 'Don Quijote Family' that specializes in providing firearms to newcomers, the 'Golden Emperor' that has businesses all over the world, and the underground usury tycoon,'Fortune God'. No one dares to cause trouble here, because those who cause trouble here will be hunted down by these three forces.”
"I see. Thank you for your reminder.”
Dewey nodded, took out a ten thousand dollar bill, and handed it to the man. He asked again,""What is this island called?"
"Its previous name has been forgotten. Now, everyone calls it the 'Dark House', or the' Pirate Resupplying Station.'”
Seeing that Dewey was so tactful, the man's gaze became more pleasing to the eye. Then, he took out a map from his pocket and handed it to Dewey, reminding him," This map shows a few shops. The first half of the great sea route and the specialties of the New World are there. You can go and take a look, but the prices of those things are a little high.”
At the end, the man still did not give up and asked,"By the way, are you really not going to buy a great navigation guide?”
"No, thank you."
Dewey still politely refused.
This kind of person who specialized in scamming rookies really existed in every world.
After sending the man off, Dewey handed the map to Carina, who was getting off the ladder.
"An island ruled by the Dark World? This is the first time I've seen it."
Carina looked at the two symbols on the map and exclaimed,""It's actually the joint rule of the Don Quijote Family, the Golden Emperor, and the God of Fortune!？”
"You know about these three forces?"
Dewey said in surprise.
" Of course, there's no need to mention the richest man in the world, Golden Emperor. The underground usury of the Don Quijote Family and the God of Fortune is a giant force in the underworld.”
Carina rolled her eyes." Just like how pirates know about One Piece and White Beard, thieves and bounty hunters like us from the underworld are no strangers to the Don Quijote Family and the Fortune God." The former specialized in selling drugs and firearms, while the latter specialized in lending money to others. In the Dark Exchange, these two forces were very popular with pirate groups who wanted to make a comeback.”
"I see."
Dewey, who only knew about this world from the original novel, nodded in realization.
"A force that can even rule the great sea route? How terrifying.”
Unlike Carina, who was good at gathering information, Nami, whose horizons and knowledge were limited to the Eastern Sea, only felt that these three forces were very terrifying.
"Ah…"
Carina nodded in agreement.
In fact, that was all she knew.
The most terrifying forces in this world, other than the World Government that had ruled the world for 800 years, were the Navy Headquarters that acted as the face of the World Government, the four Sea Emperors of the New World, and the Revolutionary Army that was hiding with the goal of overthrowing the World Government.
Apart from the revolutionary army, the " Seven Seas of Martial Arts ", which were known as the three major forces together with the navy and the four emperors, were not a threat unless they joined forces.
The Don Quijote Family, the Golden Emperor, and the God of Fortune were able to plant their flags on this island largely because it was one of the islands of origin. It was not valuable to pirates and could easily be destroyed by hotheads from the four seas.
At the same time, their planting of the flag would instantly revitalize the economy here and make it prosperous.
"I didn't feel anything in the original novel, but in the real world, Doflemingo is a terrifying existence.”
On the road to the town center, Dewey thought to himself.
In his plan, he might offend this great pirate who had the identities of " Heavenly Dragon Man,"" Dark Intermediary Joker,"" King Dresrosa," and " Seven Kings, Wuhai Heavenly Yaksha."
"Two years!"
Dewey made up his mind."I'll try my best to have the strength to deal with it within two years. Even if it doesn't work out... I'll be able to escape!”
