Due to Teach's possession of Dyna Stone, there was a surge of unrest in the New World. Whether it was the Underground World in the shadows or the surface's Marine and pirate forces, dormant spies were activated one by one, initiating large-scale searches in the New World.
Finding Teach, stopping the circulation of Dyna Stone, and preventing the destruction of the New World!
This became a common understanding among various factions.
No one wanted to give up their power, wealth, or honor. Their roots were established in the existence of this sea. If Teach succeeded, everything would be lost.
Looking at it from a step back.
If you're going down, why drag everyone down with you?
Who gives you the right?
What madness is this!
Under this common understanding, the major powers of the One Piece World joined forces, demonstrating their unparalleled influence on this world.
What Teach was trying to do touched everyone's bottom line.
Once hailed as "Blackbeard" Teach, who had risen to prominence in the New World with the backing of the Whitebeard Pirates and a bounty exceeding 500 million, had suddenly become a pariah, universally condemned.
Not to mention his wanton acts of personal strength, even the few times he secretly recruited soldiers were reported by trailing spies, causing chaos.
This was a global crackdown, and the relentless search left no room to breathe.
Naturally, the matter regarding [End Point] was tacitly concealed.
Except for the major powers who were already informed, the rest only knew that Teach had been issued a worldwide manhunt order.
On the Black Market assassination list, his bounty reached a staggering 5,000,000,000 Belly!
Some people had bad luck, naturally, others benefited.
As the greatest hero who thwarted Teach's conspiracy, and still the fearsome Marine Resourceful General, Marine Soryu (Azure Dragon), Rowen received a heap of goodwill from unknown factions.
On one hand, they expressed gratitude for his exposure of Teach's conspiracy; on the other hand... it was his series of actions that made these backstage power players accustomed to wielding power feel fear.
With "Limp" Edie returning to the side of the Shipping King, Umit, the events on [The Drifter] were selectively disclosed to some partners by the "Shipping King" Umit, prompting them to take notice and prevent themselves from inadvertently attracting Rowen's attention.
Who would have thought that the seemingly unstoppable pirate League would be dealt with in this way?
Destroying the Pirate League was actually just a side goal for Marine Soryu (Azure Dragon), the main goal was to find Teach's hiding place through the two members of the Blackbeard Pirates.
It was killing two birds with one stone!
At first, many people were incredulous, until information was collected bit by bit, and they witnessed Rowen's cunning and sinister methods, they completely gave up the idea of opposing him.
Naturally, due to their positions, the goodwill of these people remained only in words.
Two individuals who wanted to bribe Rowen were electrocuted into charcoal and sent back, warning the rest not to overstep their bounds.
Subsequently, this goodwill was expressed in another way.

New World, Punk Hazard.
G-5!
Standing in front of the massive iron gate of Bay Port, Rowen sighed deeply. "Finally completed!"
Sengoku thought that the newly established G-5 would face many difficulties before it could stand tall in the storm. However, it did not encounter any trouble from any quarters. It was completed at an astonishing speed on Punk Hazard.
Well, at least in Sengoku's eyes.
This mission, which couldn't be completed in less than a year or two, was completed in just three months now, which could be described as lightning fast!
Rowen's G-10, due to the aircraft directly transporting materials from Angel Island, didn't need to worry about material shortages. The limiting factor in construction speed was actually the shortage of manpower, and Island Cloud's characteristics of easy shaping, lightness, and sturdiness.
So the official construction only took a month and a half.
As for Punk Hazard, this new base had an ample workforce, with the number of soldiers idle on the Ark alone being greater than when G-10 was established. As a result, it took three months for it to be officially completed.
The reason was simple: there were no materials!
Punk Hazard was a pleasant environment, but there was no island with any valuable resources worth exploiting. Even the rocks that could be used to build walls were buried deep underground, with the surface consisting entirely of soil and easily crumbled sandstone.
Looking at it the other way around, this wasn't a problem... If various valuable mineral specialties were targeted by pirates, Vegapunk's research base wouldn't have been set up here.
So the materials needed for building G-5 were entirely transported by G-1, a long and difficult journey, with supplies unable to keep up with consumption.
Often, when a batch of materials arrived, everyone would be ready to start working vigorously, only to find themselves waiting idly for the next batch of materials.
With the pirate threat gone and the meddling Underground World hounds neutralized, the speed of establishing G-5 surpassed everyone's imagination.
"Thank you for your trouble, Vice Admiral Soryu (Azure Dragon)!"
On the battleship, standing beside Rowen, Vegapunk nodded with a smile.
Although he spent most of his day holed up in the base doing research, he was well aware of who was responsible for the swift construction of the new G-5.
Since Teach, after revealing his whereabouts by recruiting troops under the Undying Pirate banner, had been lying low and elusive ever since being chased like a dog, Rowen decided to take matters into his own hands and personally intervene, aiming to end the quest as soon as possible and return fully prepared.
Are coastlines too gentle to defend and in need of remodeling?
Leave it to me!
Swish...
The gentle beach turned into steep cliffs.
Are stones too heavy to be transported and waiting for machinery?
No problem at all!
Boom...
With a single hand, Rowen lifted hundreds of tons of rock and effortlessly tossed them into the air.
Is Bay Port's foundation too soft and in need of reinforcement?
Watch me!
Thud...
With a barrage of punches, the soft sand was compacted into concrete.
With the help of Rowen, this "enthusiastic individual," apart from some tedious detailed work, most heavyweight tasks were swiftly resolved, and the construction speed couldn't be slowed down even if one wanted to.
Ordinarily, laying the foundation for a tall building would take at least half a month, but with Rowen's assistance, the foundation of a massive G branch took only four days... two of which were spent waiting for materials.
Punk Hazard had now undergone a major transformation.
Natural defense cliffs rose on three sides, almost eliminating the possibility of being ambushed from behind with densely placed artillery positions.
Bay Port, at the forefront, was modeled after Marineford Headquarters, with a gate blocking sea currents and storms, and a retractable iron gate hidden underwater.
A huge white building stood between Bay Port and Vegapunk's research base, surrounded by a thick stone wall like a prison, with only a small gate for entry and exit.
A vast number of battleships were docked at the port, their masts towering and flags obscuring the sky.
The aircraft camp was filled with Blue Whale-shaped aircraft, and cannons, Plasma Cannons, and improved versions of small Super Electromagnetic Cannons that were installed at various positions of the fortress, making the new G-5 a formidable war fortress rivaling any Marine base!
It could be said that the current G-5 was even more impregnable than before. Even if Jack were to resurrect and attack again, he would be sunk by those unreasonable artillery positions and left to feed the fish in the sea.
"By the way, Vice Admiral Soryu (Azure Dragon), has the Base Head for the new G-5 has been decided?"
Vegapunk asked curiously. He had the authority to know these things, but he didn't ask, and no one informed him proactively.
"It's me!"
Before Rowen could answer, on a battleship not far away, a small giant standing three meters tall bent his knees and jumped in place.
Thud!
Watching the General leave a spider-web-like depression on the deck of the battleship, Vegapunk exclaimed in shock.
"Vice Admiral Mozambia!"
