Chương 248: Two Years

After experiencing defeat in Wano Country and being toyed by a young man in North Blue, Whitebeard Pirates were infuriated, but because it was difficult to track Donquixote family, they couldn't do anything. Originally, they wanted to turn Donquixote Family's businesses in New World upside down, but when they went there, they discovered that Vongola Family had already dealt with them.

As a result, Whitebeard Pirates' crews, who originally planned to vent off their anger, had no choice but to bottle up their frustration.

New World once became stable. Although Whitebeard Pirates was defeated by Vongola Family, they survived. With Marco who had undergone Awakening, they were still one of the mightiest forces in the New World. Except for some hotheads, no one dared to challenge them.

After all, although they lost to Vongola, they repelled Big Mom Pirates not long ago!

Being able to repel Big Mom Pirates was enough to show that Whitebeard Pirates still had the strength to shake the world!

At the moment, the three strongest forces in the New World were still Vongola Family, Whitebeard Pirates and Big Mom Pirates. Vongola Family that defeated Whitebeard Pirates was undoubtedly the strongest in the New World. Then Whitebeard Pirates was the second strongest, and Big Mom Pirates on the third.

Originally, people wanted to call these three forces the Emperor of the New World, in short, "Three Emperors"!

But the problem was that Vongola Family was not a pirate, but a mafia family, so it was a bit off to line them with the other two pirate crews. It made people feel that something was wrong. After tweaking with it for a bit, eventually the name "Primo and Two Emperors" spread in the New World.

They couldn't think of how to address Giotto, so they just took Primo from Vongola Primo for the name. Primo represented Giotto, and Two Emperors were Whitebeard and Big Mom.

When Giotto heard this name, he was a little surprised. The term "Four Emperors" should emerge many years later when Shanks became famous in the New World. He didn't expect that the structure of the New World was divided so early because of him. This way, it would be more difficult for Shanks to become one of the Four Emperors in the future than in the manga.

However, with Shanks' strength, it was not a big problem.

Perhaps because of the name "Primo and Two Emperors" became more and more popular, the Marines also made some responses, which was to raise their bounty.

Vongola Primo, Flame-Flame Fruit user and capable of using a special ability called Dying Will Flame. The leader of Vongola Family, bounty 4.17 million Belly!

One of the Two Emperors, "Whitebeard", Edward Newgate, Tremor-Tremor Fruit's user. The strongest man in the world, and the Captain of Whitebeard Pirates, bounty 3.95 billion Belly.

One of the Two Emperors, "Big Mom", Charlotte Linlin, Soul-Soul Fruit's user and Commander of Totto Land kingdom, bounty 3.71 billion Belly!

Although their bounty was very high, no one would go for their heads. After all, no matter how high their bounty was, was it really wise risking your life over it?

In addition to the New World, there were some movements from World Government's side. The most notable being Seven Warlords of the Sea's lineup was complete. They were Dracule "Hawkeye" Mihawk, "Desert King" Sir Crocodile, Gecko Moria, Pirate Empress Boa Hancock, Heavenly Yaksha Donquixote Doflamingo, "Tyrant" Bartholomew Kuma, and "Mist" Demon Spade!

Yes, Jinbei did not become the Seven Warlords of the Sea like in the manga. After all, he was Vongola Family's External Advisor now, and Fish-Man Island also had Vongola Family's protection, so he naturally did not need to become World Government's lackey!

But what Giotto surprised Giotto was Spade became one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Considering how much he hated incompetent nobles, could he endure working for the World Government?

If he met those Celestial Dragons, could he really restrain himself from killing those pigs?

But it was a decided matter, so there was no point in thinking about it!

Moreover, Alaudi also sent back a message that he found Shiki with Doflamingo and Spade. In other words, one of the three legendary pirates from the last era, Shiki, also joined their alliance!

These were the major things that had happened in the past two years. In these two years, Giotto did not do anything special. He was basically training to improve his strength, especially his Devil Fruit ability. As the pinnacle of fire-related ability, Flame-Flame Fruit had great potential. Moreover, he also wanted to try one thing, which was whether the Logia had an awakening, too!

There were several Zoan or Paramecia users that had reached Awakening, but he had never heard of any Logia user that had reached Awakening.

In addition, in these two years, there had been some progress between him and Aria. Although it was not a marriage proposal like what Reborn had planned, the two were getting closer and closer.

Robin, who had grown up, was irritated with how Aria and Giotto got closer and she showed this dissatisfaction with no intention of holding back!

One morning, Giotto took Aria with his boat and left Secon Island. This time, his destination was as you guessed, East Blue!

It was not that he held any special feelings for that sea. He went to East Blue this time with two goals in mind, and one of them was to bring Kuina back.

It wasnot that Kuina stayed in East Blue for two years. But she would go to East Blue time to time during the past two years. It seemed that teaching little Zoro a lesson had become her hobby.

His second goal was a minor mission issued by the system to see how Shanks's arm had been bitten off by the Sea King!

The mission would be considered complete once he witnessed that scene, and this mission could unlock Basil, which could increase External Advisors' combat strength.

It was not bad.

Moreover, Giotto also wanted to know how Shanks could lose his hand to a mere Sea King considering how strong he was. If he remembered correctly, Shanks called it "betting his arm in the future?"
