And when Genichi was ready to start his next plan, the whole world was in chaos.
The Rock Pirates that dominated for a while suddenly disbanded, and their captain, Rocks, died at God's Valley.
The World Government turned this into a news to praise themselves by releasing the headline saying that Rocks Pirates was defeated in the hands of Sengoku and Vice-Admiral Garp in God's Valley.
Only a number of people knew what truly happened in God's Valley.
In addition to Sengoku and Vice-Admiral Garp, there was also a pirate named Roger who participated in the war. In addition to these famous people, there was another person involved, who was no less skilled than Roger and the others.
It could be said that more than half of the mightiest forces in the world participated in the battle of God's Valley, and the cause of this war was unknown.
Rocks at first claimed that it was to kill the Celestial Dragons and plunge the world to into chaos, but after Rocks Pirates disbanded, everyone agreed that Rocks himself came for Jewel of Four Souls from the beginning.
Jewel of Four Souls…This particular name spread to the ears of the various forces in the world in a very short time.
This was the item that made the Marines, Rocks Pirates, Roger Pirates, and the unknown person didn't hesitate to risk their life on the line in God's Valley, and it had the ability to fulfill one's wishes!
This was probably an exaggerated setting that even fantasy novel didn't want to use anymore, but everyone didn't doubt the authenticity of this information.
Because Rocks Pirates, the Marines, Roger Pirates, and an unknown skilled fighter fought tooth and nail in God's Valley, the validity about Jewel of Four Souls increased. People even thought that such an item could cause such a war!
People believed that Jewel of Four Souls could truly fulfil people's wishes as the battle of God's Valley was the proof, and that wasn't all!
In that war, Jewel of Four Souls had shattered into countless pieces and scattered all over the world. Even its fragment alone contained incredible power.
In the Battle of God's Valley, the four forces each obtained one piece, while the rest of the fragments were still out there. Each fragment would grant its owner massive power, and there might be a possibility of gathering the complete Jewel of Four Souls in the future!
Moreover, even if they could not gather all of them, they could use the Jewel of Four Souls' Fragments in their hands to prevent others from gathering all of them, or use it as a bargaining chip. In short, the news about Jewel of Four Souls had spread all over the world, and even the World Government could no longer control public opinion that ran amok.
They originally wanted to cover up this news, and then use huge manpower to find all Jewel of Four Souls' Fragments, so as to test if this item could truly grant one's wish.
However, they couldn't contain this news at all. In addition to Genichi, even Roger, Whitebeard, and Shiki spread the news about Jewel of Four Souls, in order to prevent the World Government from hogging all of the fragments for themselves.
They could still take it away from other pirates, but taking it away from the World Government would be difficult? Did they have to raid Marines' headquarters or the Holy Land Mary Geoise to do so?
Wouldn't that be walking into the trap?
Roger and Whitebeard, in particular, had already tested Jewel of Four Souls' Fragments' strength. They discovered that this fragment could be implanted into their bodies, and the part that they embedded it into gained some strength, albeit not much. At their level, it was actually very difficult to get stronger.
Roger and Whitebeard were already in their 30s and 40s at this time. In fact, they had basically reached their peak at this age. Although they could still get stronger, it wouldn't be by a large margin.
However, simply by embedding fragments of Jewel of Four Souls into part of their body, they felt that their bodies were getting stronger. It was really incredible.
"I roughly estimated there are at least seventy to eighty fragments, right?"
In the sea of the New World, Roger, who had already left God's Valley continued his journey, was talking to his firstmate Rayleigh.
"Maybe this thing can really fulfill a person's wish!"
"It would be too dangerous if such a thing was obtained by someone with ill intentions." Rayleigh sighed, "And the World Government will never let anyone obtain the complete Jewel of Four Souls."
"The piece that Garp obtained should be handed in. What a pity." Roger said with some regret. As he talked about Garp, he recalled the reddish power on Garp's body during the battle in God's Valley. He could not help but ask curiously,
"However, even without Jewel of Four Souls, it is not like Garp comes back empty-handed. The power on his body should belong to that Nine-Tails Demon Fox, right?"
Nine-Tailed Demon Fox. The monster that appeared on Sabaodi Archipelago might be the monster that Toguro mentioned. That guy Toguro searched for Jewel of Four Souls to become a complete monster, In other words, he was now an incomplete monster?
"In short, the world is changing." Rayleigh and Roger were on the deck, enjoying the sea breeze and looking at the vast sea. After the disbandment of Rocks Pirates, they might be the strongest crew in the world, but they would not be satisfied with this.
They also had their own dreams and objectives.
"You know..."
Roger suddenly said, "If we find the Final Island, I will leave Jewel of Four Souls' Fragments there as a reward for the next pirates who manage to get there."
"Good idea. Of course, that will have to wait until we find the Final Island."
"We will definitely find it." Roger said with extreme certainty, "I have a feeling that there is a huge change in this world. This is the turning point of an era. In our era, things will definitely be different from the past. The World Government claims that Lodestar Island is the Final Island, but when we arrive there, we know that it is not the Final Island."
"Then, the Final Island must've something the World Government didn't want to be exposed to this world, and it will definitely surprise us. It will definitely be revealed in this era!"
