Chapter 1162 Cherishing Talent
Chapter 1162 Cherishing Talent
Wano Country has a special geographical location and is rich in a rare mineral - seastone!
Also, due to the long-term isolation of the country, some of the special forging techniques they mastered had almost no possibility of spreading to the outside world.
Seastone, whose hardness is comparable to that of diamond, can even be processed into the size of a nail in the hands of skilled craftsmen in Wano Country.
At the same time, they can also control the purity of the seastone in the seastone handcuffs, making it so that the person wearing them cannot use their abilities but still has the strength to do hard labor.
These extremely special forging skills are only available in Wano Country.
In addition, Wano Country is an expert in weapons, especially sword forging.
It can be said that many famous swords in the sea come from Wano Country!
Moreover, even if they are just the most ordinary weapons they make, their quality is still better than most weapons on the sea.
Rich seastone minerals, plus superb forging technology!
These two items alone are enough for Wano Country to do business with any force, and be very successful in it.
This is its natural advantage!
Kaido noticed this point and chose to take it down and make it his own stronghold.
Even the navy had to choose to trade secretly with the current ruler of Wano Country, Kaido, the King of Beasts.
There is no other reason, it’s just that seastone is so important to the navy!
In addition, the navy’s annual demand for seastone is also huge!
Naturally, the only option is to trade with Kaido.
Of course, why does the navy need seastone so much?
The reason is also very simple...
This is mainly closely related to its efficacy.
Seastone can not only make Devil Fruit users unable to use their abilities like seawater, but it can also temporarily turn them into ordinary people.
Whether it is made into weapons, or into handcuffs, shackles or prisons, it can effectively curb those rampant ability users.
Especially when the navy encounters pirates who have eaten devil fruits, the effect of seastone will immediately appear.
This allows ordinary navy officers to deal with pirates who possess various special abilities, and even to counter them to a certain extent.
Look at Admiral Zefa, he is the best example of how to use seastone properly!
Relying on his seastone weapon, he really gave Luffy a hard time.
In addition, seastone is extremely hard, said to be as hard as diamond, and cannot be broken by ordinary means.
Therefore, seastone can not only imprison Devil Fruit users, but also non-users with special abilities, using seastone handcuffs or cages to imprison them.
Most of the cages in Impel Down were made of seastone.
The shackles on the prisoners were also forged from seastone.
Why did Shiki the Golden Lion cut off his own legs?
If he didn't cut off his own legs and break free from the seastone shackles, he wouldn't even be able to activate his abilities, so how could he get out of a place like Impel Down?
To be honest, it's also thanks to the fact that Golden Lion is the user of the Float-Float Fruit that he has the ability to fly.
But if it’s someone else’s type of ability.
Even for someone as strong as Kaido or Whitebeard, it would be extremely difficult to escape from Impel Down.
Once you're in, basically forget about getting out.
Why was Luo Di able to get in?
Why dare you go in?
Isn't it because he also has the ability to fly!
Even though Push City is located in a doldrums zone, he can come and go freely.
Not to mention, Urouge, who ate the Repulse Fruit, can help with diving.
With Urouge's help, the entire core members of the Death Pirates' main ship can go along.
This is what Luo Di relies on!
As long as you have one of the following characteristics, you will have the opportunity to visit the city.
Of course, Luo Di’s powerful strength is also a very crucial point.
After all, the two top figures guarding Impel Down, Shiryuu of the Rain and Magellan, are not vegetarians.
Magellan, the prison warden of Impel Down, is the user of the Poison-Poison Fruit and has extremely terrifying strength.
Especially in that closed environment, he is like a god of war.
If it is a one-on-one fight, although his strength is slightly inferior to the three admirals of the navy, it is not much different.
The only pity is that he did not master domineering power.
If Magellan possessed domineering power, his strength would be even more terrifying, even reaching the level of admiral.
Shiryu of the Rain, the most powerful swordsman in the entire pirate world and the chief guard of Impel Down, forms the iron wall of Impel Down with Magellan.
In fact, the strength of the two is not much different.
It’s a pity that, like Magellan, he can’t use Haki.
This is the limitation of the Impel Down duo.
However, it is undeniable that even without the domineering power, the strength of the two is still quite explosive.
At least he can be compared with those big pirates with bounties of tens or even hundreds of billions.
To be honest, with such strength, ordinary pirates would not be able to escape from the clutches of these two even if they succeeded in escaping from prison.
so.
If Kaido wants to rescue people from the ship and bring them out to sea, he must exchange some interests with the navy.
However, considering what Doflamingo has done, it is not something that can be given up just for a little bit of benefit.
Not to mention, at that point in time, Akainu, who pursued "absolute justice", had replaced Sengoku and became the new Navy Admiral.
As for Akainu's character.
Let him cooperate with the pirates?
Tsk tsk, I can only say, what a wild idea!
Unless he is really forced to do so, for example, if the Five Elders specifically speak up, in this case, he will struggle and reluctantly agree once.
If Akainu disagrees, Kaido has no substantive solution.
In this case, we can only start with Caesar, the real creator of the artificial devil fruit.
However, during that period of time, Caesar was controlled by Big Mom and forced her to research giant medicine for her.
Big Mom did a great job of blocking the news about Caesar.
Kaido wanted to find it, but still had no way.
The Hundred Beasts Legion plan has come to a temporary end.
But who is Kaido?
He certainly didn't want to wait any longer.
However, before he could take the next step.
The Straw Hat Pirates caused a lot of trouble in Wano Country.
At that time, the headlines of the World Economic News were all about the Straw Hat Pirates.
What makes Kaido feel incredible is that even someone as strong as Big Mom would one day be defeated.
Perhaps it was at that moment that he truly remembered Luffy and everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates.
However, what Kaido did not expect was that just a few days later, the Straw Hat Boy and his crew inexplicably entered Wano Country.
