Chapter 111 Influence
Rocks D. Gibek didn't care at all about the trend that was brewing within the Rocks Pirates.
In his eyes, the fight between Hades and the others was just a small fight.
It took half a year to expand its power, and for the next month, Hades was consolidating the power in his hands.
The rapid expansion of power will take time to digest, and the pirates under its protection also need to get to know each other.
After all, it suddenly expanded from less than ten people to a huge army of 1,800 people.
Yeager's old troops, Xhosa's old troops, and some of the cadres who joined him also had many subordinates.
In addition to the pirates actively recruited by Hades, there are many pirates with bounties exceeding 100 million.
During this period, Shiji became active. He was an activist. After making a decision, he also began to expand his power.
Needless to say, the effect was pretty good, and many pirates with bounties worth over 100 million did not hesitate to join him directly.
There are also several powerful pirates.
Compared to Hades, Shiki has a deeper foundation in the Rocks Pirates and knows more pirates.
Hades and Shiki showed their sharpness and suddenly became the most dazzling presence in the Rocks Pirates, and their light blocked other core cadres.
Faced with such a situation, how could other cadres show weakness?
They are already feeling the pressure.
Hades has a large number of strong men with high quality, and the number of pirates under his command reaches two thousand.
The number of pirates under Shiji has reached 4,000. In addition to the members of the Rocks Pirates, there are many other pirates and affiliated pirate groups.
"Golden King" Donovan is still the most powerful of the Rocks Pirates, with as many as 20,000 pirates.
There are also many affiliated pirate groups and pirates who are not part of the Rocks Pirates.
The Werewolf Pirates didn't do much.
As a "lone ranger", Death Gun Leon wouldn't even care.
John, Silver Axe, and Wang Zhi are also expanding their own power.
The changes in the Rocks Pirates' situation have had a far-reaching impact.
It can be said that it was influenced by Hades and the actions of "Golden Lion" Shiji.
Each of the Rocks Pirates is a lone ranger, and powerful pirates have become the targets of their wooing.
A unique "arms race" is going on within the Rocks Pirates.
Although it was not stated explicitly, there was one fact that always existed in their hearts. The Rocks Pirates would be disbanded one day and would not be able to exist for a long time.
Maybe twenty years later, maybe thirty years later.
They need to prepare in advance to prepare for the future and prepare to become maritime overlords in the future.
If you want to become a maritime overlord, you must at least rule an area of the sea, and you need to have huge power.
Besides, they still have so many competitors.
In the year 1474 of Haiyuan Era, Hades joined the Rocks Pirates for almost three years.
From the decision to leave Hatchinos and form his own force.
Hades stayed in Hatchinos for more than half a year.
It's not that easy to leave Hatchinos.
There is a lot to prepare.
In addition to the pirate ships waiting to be built, the gold exchange in Hatchinos needs to be closed.
After Hades left Hatchinos, the business of the money exchange could no longer be maintained.
Gold exchanges need to be guarded by strong people. Under normal circumstances, gold exchanges will be watched over by Karsus.
The "dove" hidden in the dark needs to protect Hades and occasionally take a look.
Now that Hades decided to leave, he would take all his men with him.
There is no need to leave any manpower behind in Hatchinos.
Without manpower, there would be no need for Hatchinos' gold exchange to exist.
Now that Iscabell Island has been set on sight, I must turn this island into my base.
The business of the money exchange will also be transferred to Iscabell Island.
In fact, Hades had already started doing it, but no one noticed it.
Secretly mobilized manpower and sent the people who ran the money exchange to Iscabell Island.
Maybe Hades will come back, but by that time, Iscabell Island has already changed into his shape, and even a short-term departure will not affect his interests there.
When Hades comes back, it will definitely be a different scene.
He will come back eventually.
No matter what, Hatchinos is the center of the Rocks Pirates.
It is not that simple to unite the sheltered forces into one rope, and there are also frictions among some pirates.
But Hades believes that time will heal everything.
During the period of integrating forces, many more pirates joined, and the number of pirates under Hades has exceeded 2,000.
Turning off the phone bug, Hades was a little excited.
He got the news that the long-awaited pirate ship finally arrived.
He slowly stood up and faced the various cadres he had summoned. These are his current team and also the important core team in the future.
"let's go."
Hades waved slightly and strode away.
The others were a little curious, so they followed and summoned their men.
They already knew what Hades was waiting for and what he wanted to do.
Waiting for a pirate ship that belongs to them, Hades is preparing to form a pirate group, leave Hatchinos and occupy a base that belongs to them.
After getting along for a short time, they had begun to be somewhat convinced by Hades.
It's not just Hades' strength and potential.
It's not just Hades who is generous and doesn't skimp on rewards for his subordinates.
Hades had already made the general plan.
I didn't think about it as soon as it came out, and made a complete action plan in advance.
Let them be mentally prepared.
It makes them feel more at ease.
Now, the time has come for them to leave.
At the port of Hatchinos, a 157-meter-long super battleship slowly docked.
This is a strange pirate ship.
A strange pirate flag was flying on the ship.
Just the skull on the pirate flag is very eye-catching.
This is a dragon-shaped skull that is not common in the sea and looks a bit ferocious, with a pair of bone horns.
Behind the dragon-shaped skull, a terrifying dark vortex is reflected.
Many pirates live on the sea all year round, and the pirates on the ship can tell at a glance that this top-notch pirate ship is new.
The ferocious three-headed dragon head at the bow shone with metallic luster.
His domineering appearance attracted a large number of pirates to watch after he appeared.
If it weren't for the Rocks mark that was also floating on the ship, some pirates would have been unable to bear it and rushed forward.
Who does this ship belong to?
The Rocks Pirates are qualified and there are only a few people who have the ability to build such a large pirate group.
Some people have already guessed that it is Hades' ship, combined with Hades' big move a few days ago.
It is speculated that Hades is leaving Hatchinos and looking for a base.
Others are not fools, and this approach is also relatively common among the Rocks Pirates.
Although Hatchinos is a good place, there are too many strong people.
No one wants to be stepped on. Wouldn't it be better to be the master outside?
Do whatever you want, this is the norm.
Like John, Silver Axe, and Wang Zhi, they have already occupied several islands with rich resources as their own territory.
The huge power under his command requires funds to maintain.
In addition to plunder, some additional income is also necessary.
It was very convenient for Shi Ji. He directly used his own ability to move an island and place it in the nearby sea, or float it directly in the air.
Hades's choice was actually what they expected, but they didn't expect the movement to be so big and the time to be so early.
