Chapter 209 The Beginning of the 7th Wu Hai
The Sky Arena Ranking Tournament has entered its final stage. The first place has been decided, and the remaining seats are also being decided quickly.
Because of his narrow defeat to von Sias, Enel entered the loser bracket and could only wait for the final challenge. However, with his current combat power, he was lucky to be able to barely make it into the top 100.
There are too many strong men in this sea. This is in 1490, the Great Pirate Era has not yet arrived, pirates are not as rampant as in later generations, and the navy is relatively weak, so only a teenager like Enelu can show his power.
"Everyone, the final stage of the ranking competition will begin next. Multiple arenas will be taking place simultaneously. You can choose to watch as you wish."
Rhine announced the end.

Below the Sky Arena is the Pentles Islands, where Gut and Roy are secretly searching for the "rats" that have sneaked into the World Expo.
I have to say that Lex was surprised by the result this time.
Although Lex was in the Red Earth Continent thousands of miles away, holding a secret meeting with the Five Elders, he still learned the news.
Roy said through Den Den Mushi:
"Lex, we have investigated clearly. These 'rats' who secretly allowed the Waldo Pirates to rob Dynamite Rock and sneak into the World Expo are not CP, but retainers and assassins trained by the Celestial Dragon Family themselves."
On the other side of the Den Den Mushi, Lex was holding the Den Den Mushi, but his eyes were fixed on the Five Elders in the hall, with a hint of mockery in his eyes.
"Well, what about Uncle Gutt?"
"Captain Gutt's investigation results are consistent with mine. It was indeed the Celestial Dragon Family who took action and secretly assisted Waldo in bombing the World Expo. Lex, you are ready to--"
When Roy was about to ask Lex what was going on, Lex suddenly interrupted:
"No, remember, Waldo threatened the Expo because he wanted to avenge Satan. He has nothing to do with the Celestial Dragon Family. This matter ends here, second brother."
Hearing Lex's words -
On the other side of the Den Den Mushi, Roy's face showed strange color. He looked at Stussy who was leaning against his body. The two looked at each other and seemed to understand something and realized where Lex was.
Immediately, Roy spoke:
"Okay, I got it. I will deal with these people properly. This is just Waldo's idea. Afterwards, I will execute the remnants of Waldo's pirate group in public. I wonder if this is appropriate?"
Lex still stared at the five old men with a playful look, and said lightly:
"Well, second brother, you can do it yourself."
After hanging up the phone, Lex still looked at the Five Elders, but he did not say a word. His eyes became more playful.
Mars felt a little uncomfortable being stared at, so he spoke first:
"Ah!~ The Celestial Dragon family actually interfered with the World Expo without permission and colluded with the pirate Waldo. How can this be disgraceful? Which family did it?! I will definitely investigate this matter thoroughly and punish them!~"
Lex smiled lightly and said nothing.
The other four Five Elders also had different ideas, but no one spoke, which made Old Mars look very embarrassed for a moment.
Finally, Jupiter looked deep in the eyes and spoke slowly:
"... Lex, we do know about Waldo's affairs. As for what is going on behind the scenes, I believe that with your wisdom, there is no need for us to explain too much. As for... pursuing accountability, there is no need to target the Holy Land. Lord Yim has given you the authority to [Control the Sea on Behalf of the Gods], so I believe you will not be so fussy about these trivial matters. A king should have the tolerance of a king."
As soon as these words came out, the other three Five Elders all spoke up and said:
"Yes, Lex, what Peter Saint said is absolutely right."
"Don't worry about it, otherwise it will be another meaningless investigation without a beginning or an end."
"You are already the highest power in the world, why do you care about these things?"
Lex took a sip of tea and said calmly:
"You five don't need to say more. Waldo brought this upon himself and has already been executed. His remaining followers will be annihilated soon. Let's leave this matter alone. Let's discuss the feasibility of the 'Seven Warlords of the Sea Plan'."
"Well, the Seven Warlords of the Sea, this is the first time I've heard of it, but in the Rocks era, there were also naval admirals who proposed a similar system, but it was not as perfect as what you discussed, Lex."
Mercury continued to analyze Lex's "Seven Warlords of the Sea Plan":
"But how can you be sure that these people can be used by the government?"
"First of all, the Seven Warlords of the Sea will not be too powerful, at least not like the New World Kings. If that happens, they will be difficult to control. They can be lone rangers like Master. Although their personal strength is unparalleled, they are free from all ties. If they are given the power to act freely without being targeted by the government, or even to legally rob, they can surely be won over. Even if they don't obey orders at critical moments, they can still be a fighting force on weekdays and shock the world."
Lex said, causing the Five Elders to nod their heads. They had never underestimated Lex's scheming just because they had lived too long. He was a man who could time and again defeat the government. Now that he had been temporarily pulled to the Holy Land by Lord Im, the Five Elders realized how awesome Lex was.
In terms of strength, needless to say, none of the five people present can match Lex.
In terms of background, Lex alone represents the attitude of the entire New World and the attitude of the largest separatist force in this ocean.
In terms of ability, the current Seven Warlords of the Sea plan is the best proof. These strategies are many times stronger than the incompetent and useless navy!
As expected, it's Izambaron V. Lex Saint! ~
"Yes, go on."
Rex then continued to talk about his "Seven Warlords of the Sea Plan":
"As for those pirates and strong men who have power and a strong base, they are easier to win over and control. They are all people with connections, and they even have countries, pirate groups, subordinates, and islands behind them. These are all weak points. As long as we give them certain benefits and allow them to plunder legally, or even occupy a place and rule as kings, it's fine."
"There are only seven seats in the Shichibukai. Once the first one is appointed, the pirates behind will realize the convenience of this title and will rush to join and serve the government."
With just a few words, Lex briefly analyzed the superiority of the 'Seven Warlords of the Sea Plan', which drew praise from the Five Elders.
"Lex, a genius!~"
"There is no other suitable candidate for the position of Executive Prime Minister except you!~"
"Haha!~"
Lex waved his hand gently:
"Ah, you are too kind. These are just my humble opinions. How can you compare with the five of you who have 800 years of experience in governing Qinghai?"
"Haha, young man, why are you so modest? You have already surpassed me and others. As we both serve Lord Yimu, I feel ashamed. Whether in terms of means or tactics, I cannot be compared with you."
Mercury said modestly.
"So, this Shichibukai plan?"
Lex asked tentatively.
Mercury looked at the other four Five Elders, confirmed their opinions, and then waved his hand:
"You are fully responsible. The Navy will cooperate with you unconditionally. In the end, you only need to inform me of the final selection results."
"Then, it's better to obey than to be respectful."
Lex smiled gently, his smile was full of humility and gentleness, without any of the arrogance of being the king of the new world.
Shichibukai Plan! ~
At Lex's suggestion, he stepped onto the stage of history!
But this time, it is no longer the World Government that makes the selection, but Lex who is fully responsible!
This is the power of the Executive Prime Minister of the World Government, this is Leon Lex of [Daijin Mikai]! ~
