Pirates from island owner to king

Chapter 365 Founding Ceremony (1)

Although the kings of these twenty kingdoms did not come in person, almost all of them sent important envoys to congratulate them.

This includes the ten newly established kingdoms that were overthrown in the past month after joining the original World Government countries.

Compared with the countries that were established after being overthrown by Dorag in the past ten years, these ten kingdoms are more eager to get closer to Peace Island at this time.

Because they have been exposed to the public, the new top leaders of these ten kingdoms cannot help but worry that the World Government will take action against them in order to save face.

The nobles who had just overthrown the past kings, these kingdoms are in dire straits and need to start over. It is impossible to resist the World Government that is trying its best.

Even Dolag couldn't guarantee their safety.

As a result, unless they continue to deal with the world government, they are in urgent need of a helper who can make the world government fearful and not dare to be too tough on them.

Obviously, apart from Heping Island, there is no other such helper in this sea.

Moreover, Peace Island not only allows them to take advantage of the situation, but also provides them with support in all aspects.

Including various supplies they are in urgent need of.

Of course, Wang Hai welcomed the arrival of the envoys from these kingdoms.

The existence of these kingdoms has many similarities with the concept of existence of Peace Island, and they are natural allies.

And both sides have the enemy the World Government.

Although these allies are somewhat weak and cannot bring much benefit to Heping Island for the time being, they are not completely useless.

Otherwise, he would not do anything thankless.

First of all, he has always adhered to the principle of having many friends and many paths.

As long as you have more friends, you will have fewer and fewer enemies.

Very simple truth.

Friends of Peace Island are enemies of the World Government.

As long as everyone's ideas and interests are basically the same, then in the end, Peace Island may not even need to personally solve the world government.

Maybe these friends on Peace Island can take care of the world government.

It may be difficult, but not impossible.

The current world government seems to be powerful, but in addition to those trump cards that may exist and have a high probability of existence that have not yet been clarified, there are actually many problems.

As the saying goes, the embankment of a thousand miles collapses in an ant's nest.

The 800-year rule of the World Government has accumulated countless problems.

Now that we are surrounded by wolves, we may not be invincible.

What's more, there is still the containment of Heping Island.

In addition, the collapse of a dynasty is often caused by internal problems that are difficult to reverse.

Internal and external factors are intertwined, and all it takes is the last straw to break the camel's back, and it will collapse like a domino.

Even if these friends cannot bring about the collapse of the World Government and can create some trouble for the World Government so that the World Government cannot concentrate on dealing with Peace Island, Wang Hai is also happy to see such a situation.

Finally, by helping these kingdoms, which generally adhere to the concept of peace, he can also gain lawful values, justice values, and chaotic values.

Needless to say, the lawful value and the justice value, as for the chaotic value, it was because of the funding from Peace Island that these kingdoms were successfully overthrown.

The process of being overthrown obviously cannot be completely peaceful and must be a violent process.

In this way, innocent people will inevitably be hurt and some confusion will be caused.

The three numerical values ​​brought by the ten kingdoms and many allies are not small.

Wang Hai is of course more willing to do so when it is profitable.

On this day, a full live broadcast was arranged.

The founding ceremony was held in the City of Peace, the royal capital of Peace Island.

The City of Peace, located in the center of Heping Island, is one of the largest cities on Heping Island.

Prior to this, Heping Island had not been established as a country, and the City of Peace had not yet been established as the royal capital, but was called the central city.

It is the core of Heping Island. The top management of Heping Island works here and the highest university is here.

Wang Hai's villa and the training venue for the strong men on Heping Island were also moved here a few years ago.

This is a city, or urban agglomeration, that can accommodate the living and settlement of tens of millions of people.

It has the most powerful personal force and the most powerful technological defense system.

At the beginning, in order to prevent the world government from imitating the development of mushroom bombs, Wang Hai built a missile detection and interception system covering the entire Heping Island and thousands of kilometers around it.

In addition, a Peace City with a higher defense level is being built.

The City of Peace cannot accommodate everyone on Peace Island, so they all came to witness it with their own eyes on the day of the founding ceremony.

Therefore, Wang Hai specially arranged a full live broadcast to ensure that everyone on Heping Island could watch it.

At the same time, he doesn't mind taking this opportunity to let the outside world and the world government take a look at the power of Peace Island.

By this time, there was no need for Heping Island to hide.

From its establishment to the present, many things were born and developed under the witness of the world.

Some things can also be displayed openly at this time.

Therefore, Wang Hai specially arranged a military parade after he ascended the throne.

At nine o'clock in the morning on January [-]st, Wang Hai led everyone to the square in front of the Palace of Peace City.

Here, millions of people have gathered.

Including soldiers, role models from all walks of life, members of the original Whitebeard Pirates, Golden Lion, Wang Hai and many powerful senior officials on Peace Island.

Anyone who can appear here on this day is an elite of Heping Island and has made important contributions to the establishment and development of Heping Island.

There are no complicated rituals, no sacrifices to heaven and earth. Wang Hai believes even more that man can conquer heaven.

A high platform was built in the center of the square. Under the high platform, people sat in a fan shape one after another, facing the palace.

Wang Hai sat facing the high platform, next to Baibeard and other senior officials of Heping Island.

After everyone arrived, Zhou Yu, as the first minister of Heping Island, was the first to step onto the stage.

After he went up, he detailed the process from the establishment and development of Heping Island to today.

The focus is on the concept of Peace Island and the people who made important contributions in this process.

One name after another was mentioned, and spread throughout Heping Island through the live broadcast, and became known to countless people.

There were millions of people in the audience, and no one felt impatient.

Because many of them were mentioned by name, or by the name of the group.

Whenever this happens, they will be very excited and gain a strong sense of honor.

Even the citizens of Heping Island and outsiders who watched the live broadcast watched quietly.

As Zhou Yu told it, they seemed to have witnessed the birth and development of Heping Island with their own eyes.

While listening, I couldn't help but sigh that Peace Island seems to be a miracle to this day.

But after listening to Zhou Yu's story, everyone realized that the birth of Heping Island was not only due to heroes like Wang Hai who had great courage and skill.

In addition to top powerhouses like White Beard, Golden Lion, and Thunder God Ananda.

Everything about Peace Island, and so many people have made important contributions.

Not only that, according to Zhou Yu, every resident of Heping Island has contributed to Heping Island.

"Next, we invite our only king."

For almost an hour, Zhou Yu told the story of the development of Heping Island in short and long sentences.

Following his words, people's eyes and cameras turned to Wang Hai, who was in the center of the audience.

Wang Hai specially wore formal clothes today.

But it is not a fancy dress, there are no luxurious and classic royal robes.

He didn't like it.

When he was the king of Heping Island, he had no intention of becoming a king under the feudal system.

However, even an ordinary formal suit cannot conceal his charm.

As one of the most handsome men in this sea, Wang Hai easily becomes the center of attention no matter where he goes.

He looks a lot more mature now than he has in the past few years.

Although he is only in his early 20s, his high-level overlord color makes him speak and act without anger or authority, even if he does not actively release it.

He naturally exudes the aura of king and domineering.

People watching through the live broadcast can feel his domineering power even across the screen.

In this way, even though he has practiced the Everlasting Eternal Spring Kung Fu, his face is still very young, even a little immature.

But no one will think that he is not a true king.

Wang Hai walked onto the high platform and Zhou Yu walked down.

Wang Hai stood on the high platform, looking around at the millions of faces in the audience, and then spoke.

"Minister Zhou Yu has almost said everything that needs to be said. I hope everyone can continue and work with me for peace on Heping Island."

No one interrupted what Wang Hai said.

Even if the world government wanted to cause trouble at this grand ceremony, it didn't find any chance.

Wang Hai continued.

"From today on, I am the king of the Peace Island Kingdom."

A simple sentence, but it made tens of millions of people on Heping Island feel excited.

"I declare that the Peace Island Kingdom will be officially established starting today."

He didn't say as much as Zhou Yu. After Wang Hai came to power, he only said these three sentences.

As his words fell, cheers resounded throughout Peace Island.

The City of Peace is no exception.

It can be seen from the live broadcast footage that even Whitebeard joined the cheering crowd at this moment.

The citizens of Heping Island were celebrating, but the people watching the live broadcast were envious and jealous.

The grand ceremony continued, and soon, their complicated emotions all turned into shock.

Wang Hai did not step down.

Immediately afterwards, as king, after the establishment of the Heping Island Kingdom, he began to formally appoint the top leaders of Heping Island.

Zhou Yu was the first to be named by him.

"Starting from today, in the name of the King of Heping Island Kingdom, I appoint you as the First Minister, in charge of the administration of the kingdom, and responsible to me and the laws of the kingdom, and to all citizens of Heping Island."

Under the gaze of countless eyes, Wang Hai appointed Zhou Yu.

First Minister, before this, Zhou Yu's position on Heping Island was almost this position.

Heping Island can develop stably and smoothly, and everyone sees Zhou Yu's contribution, so there is no objection to him directly taking the position of First Minister.

More people are just envious.

The First Minister, without a doubt, is the position below one person and above tens of thousands of people in the Peace Island Kingdom.

"king!"

Zhou Yu did not kneel down, but stood directly opposite Wang Hai, clenched his right hand on his heart, and accepted Wang Hai's appointment.

Everyone is not surprised by this kind of etiquette.

In most kingdoms on this sea, when seeing the king, they often need to kneel down on at least one knee to show respect.

What's more, it's such an important ceremony.

However, Wang Hai had already abandoned some uncomfortable etiquette on Heping Island.

Take the rituals from your previous life and use them.

Although everyone was a little uncomfortable with it at first, they all liked it very much after they got used to it.

Because these etiquette can reflect the style of Heping Island and the equality of personality here.

Especially for some strong people, unless they are from kingdoms like Wano Country and Flower Country that follow the feudal system.

Otherwise, anyone with strength obviously doesn't like to kneel down to others.

Even if the opponent's strength exceeds your own.

Not to mention, such etiquette is obviously inappropriate for a strong man like Whitebeard.

After Zhou Yu, Whitebeard came to power.

"In the name of the King of Peace Island Kingdom, I appoint you as the Commander-in-Chief of the Kingdom's Navy..."

Whitebeard was also wearing formal attire, mostly blue and white military uniform. Wang Hai looked at him and announced his appointment.

As for Whitebeard, Wang Hai will certainly not be afraid of his strength and suppress Whitebeard.

Regarding Whitebeard's position, he had carefully discussed it with others before today, and sought Whitebeard's own opinion.

As a pirate, Whitebeard is more familiar with the sea.

So Wang Hai appointed him as the commander-in-chief of the navy.

"From today onwards, the Whitebeard Pirates are disbanded. I, Edward Newgate, am no longer the captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, but the commander-in-chief of the navy of the Peace Island Kingdom..."

Whitebeard accepted the appointment and announced the disbandment of the Whitebeard Pirates.

After hearing the news, except for the former Whitebeard Pirates who were a little sad, everyone else cheered for Whitebeard.

Prior to this, the citizens of Heping Island, as well as the outside world, had various speculations about how Wang Hai would arrange for Whitebeard and others after he ascended the throne.

There have been similar speculations about the position of Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, but there are no surprises.

The citizens of Heping Island breathed a sigh of relief. Originally, they were a little worried.

Now it seems that this position is indeed suitable for Whitebeard.

Moreover, this position seems to be second only to the king Wang Hai and on par with the first minister Zhou Yu.

After Whitebeard accepted the appointment, he went down. Wang Hai then called Ananda's name.

People's eyes immediately turned to Ananda, wondering what kind of position he would get.

Before that, Ananda had always been Wang Hai's first general. Now that Whitebeard has become the commander-in-chief of the navy, should Ananda be allowed to become a general under Whitebeard?

Moreover, there is the Golden Lion, a ceiling-level powerhouse, who seems to be ranked behind Ananda.

Many people are also curious about how Wang Hai will arrange him.

To the disappointment of the World Government personnel watching the live broadcast, the golden lion did not jump out at this time.

Even his face didn't change much.

Ananda was also wearing a formal suit, and it looked like a military uniform.

Moreover, the military rank medal that Wang Hai took out at this time seemed to be not much different from the one that Whitebeard had just put on. It was of the same level.

Under people's attention, Wang Hai quickly announced his appointment.
