65 Chapter 65: The Mysterious Manipulation of Recognition - Alabasta Surprises the World!
[The recognition of the Three Kingdoms is as follows:
World: 0.01%
Dragon Kingdom: 20%
Alabasta: 78%]
All other kingdoms have very low approval ratings. No one wants to vote for them.
[Bonney: No way! What's happening? Why isn't Dragon Kingdom first in recognition?]
[Law: Based on the chat room, at least 95% of people voted for Dragon Kingdom!]
[Hawkins: What kind of terrifying power?]
[Urouge: I seemed to be distracted for a moment just now?]
[Whitebeard: I definitely voted for Dragon Kingdom! But just now, it felt like a powerful force passed through the sky!]
[Red Hair: It wasn't my imagination!]
[Rayleigh: I voted for Dragon Kingdom too!]
[Garp: So what's going on here?]
[Dragon: There are beings beyond the void!]
[Roger: She intervened!]
At this moment, the strongest people in the world felt chill.
Some even felt a shudder in their souls.
The legends of the past were real.
Big Mom, a Soul-Soul Fruit user, was horrified.
Just now, a terrifying wave of soul power swept out from the Holy Land.
The power was so vast that it was the strongest Big Mom had ever felt.
Even Whitebeard's Conqueror's Haki was no match for this power.
Perospero had never seen his mother look so scared.
"Mom...what's wrong? Why is the Dragon Kingdom's vote rate so low? Could it be that there are beings in this world who can control the skyscreen?"
Dragon Kingdom should be number one, but it's not.
His mom is scared, so he thinks the skyscreen is affected by some force.
"No, the power of the skyscreen is far beyond the imagination of the world, and it cannot be affected. It is the people who are affected!"
Perospero was shocked by this answer.
Someone influenced the whole world in an instant!?
What kind of monster is this!?
[Kid: Hey! What's going on?!]
[Bonney: Who did it? Tell us!]
[Law: I don't accept that Dragon Kingdom isn't number one!]
"Roger, you were right."
Whitebeard's newfound ambition was extinguished in an instant. His expression was solemn.
"The existence in the sky has shaken your composure..." Red Hair looked towards the Holy Land.
"The historical records are true..." The leader of the Revolutionary Army also looked over.
"Captain! Your infamy has not been borne in vain." Rayleigh looked in the direction of the Holy Land and downed his drink!
...
A figure emerged from the void.
The Five Elders, despite their immense power, were already kneeling on the ground, their bodies trembling with weakness.
Im had just absorbed their power and used it to interfere with the world.
The monster-level powerhouses all over the world knew who it was.
They all looked in the same direction, even though they could see nothing.
The Holy Land.
The hall where the Five Elders resided.
Im.
The figure who ruled the world from the shadows.
"Do not allow Dragon Kingdom to continue receiving rewards and growing stronger. I have already interfered." Im said calmly.
"We will not let you down, Master Im. We have sent enough people to bring Gao Yang back."
The figure faded from the void and slowly disappeared.
Im, who had returned to her garden, spat out a mouthful of black blood.
Her eyes were filled with horror.
She had tried to interfere with the sky, but she had been met with a powerful counterattack.
The force had struck her directly, causing her to suffer internal injuries.
Im had used her power to manipulate the spirits of humans.
However, this power was not enough to affect the skyscreen.
The skyscreen was beyond her control.
The counterattack from the skyscreen was a stark reminder of Im's limitations.
"It seems that I cannot interfere with the skyscreen again."
Im is certain that if she tries to interfere with the skyscreen again, she will be destroyed by that powerful force.
She is terrified of this unknown entity.
The chatroom is flooded with messages of support for Dragon Kingdom.
Everyone believes that the skyscreen has made a mistake.
Only a few people know the truth.
The figure in the Holy Land is not able to control the sky.
She was only able to briefly influence the minds of humans all over the world.
"Gao Yang-sama, why are we not number one? I'm so mad."
Megumi was mad and was about to cast a big explosion spell.
Gao Yang tried to stop her, but looked at Artoria for help.
"Do you feel it too?" Astoria asked in a low voice. "A spiritual force swept across the entire East Blue, no, it must have swept the whole world. I didn't expect there to be such a powerful existence in the world!"
Boss Bai approached Gao Yang slightly, feeling uneasy. "Is this the existence you've been most worried about?"
"Well, I was more calm than I thought," Gao Yang said calmly. "She didn't intervene until the third list, but she couldn't affect the skyscreen. She only affected all human beings for a moment."
Gao Yang worried about this person because the system once gave him a reward related to the Raftel Grand Relic.
This let Gao Yang know some of the truth.
So, Dragon Kingdom has been developing in a low-key way to stay stable.
"That's powerful. Not easy to control everyone's minds."
"You said singers can pull people's spirits into another world. Can this person do that?"
"They're not Devil Fruit users, but they're like ancient beings. But it wouldn't have been easy for them to control everyone's minds instantly. Otherwise, they would have done it long ago. It seems this person is worried that the Dragon Kingdom will get stronger, or they've seen the shadow of a certain ancient country in us."
Im, the king of the world, is watching everything.
She tried to control the results of the vote, but he failed.
She gave all the votes to Alabasta because it is a member country and not a threat to her.
"Grimmjow, are you sure you can win?" Gao Yang asked.
"The soul power is very powerful, but I haven't fought head-on, so it's hard to judge."
"It's okay. I'm tired from standing. Megumi, move me a chair." Gao Yang stretched himself.
"Our first place has been taken away, and the rewards are gone! Hmph!" Megumi said angrily.
"Who told you that the rewards are gone?" Gao Yang smiled mysteriously.
If Im can't affect the skyscreen, and even if Alabasta got first place, he still has rewards, and they will be doubled.
Gao Yang then checked several messages from the past two days.
[System: Congratulations! The kingdom created by the host has won first place in the resource list.]
[Rewards are as follows:
1000 units of the source of the world
Advanced Level 10 National Completion Degree (2/3)
2 Devil Fruits in the form of a blue dragon]
[Additional rewards:
Territorial area, natural resources, and strength of Dragon Kingdom increased by 40%]
[Warning:
If there is an existence that indirectly affects the will of the audience, the first offense will result in a heavy damage warning. The second offense will result in obliteration.
If there is an attempt to directly influence the results, obliteration will occur immediately.]
There are currently 4200 sources in total.
If Im doesn't interfere this time, Gao Yang will have enough to complete his tenth-level country.
However, there are always unexpected things in life.
For Gao Yang, it's not a bad thing that Im is doing this openly.
It's better than her hiding in the shadows and being sneaky.
It's also good that Im will be killed if she interferes with the skyscreen, even indirectly.
However, she probably won't be that stupid.
"Get used to your new power."
The Dragon Kingdom's territory and resources are vast, but they are afraid of being damaged.
They will not expand for now, but their strength is no problem.
With the rewards from the previous resource list, their strength has increased by 80%, almost doubling!
This has greatly improved everyone's strength!
Gao Yang clicked on the release of physical fitness rewards.
Artoria, Boss Bai, and the others immediately showed surprise!
Their own strength is growing stronger at a speed visible to the naked eye!
They were still a little worried before, but now those worries are all gone!
They other now feels that even if they face such strength as Whitebeard and the Five Elders, they has a greater chance of winning!
"Gao Yang-sama power is amazing. He is stronger than people who are 20 years older than him."
"No wonder people from other countries want Gao Yang-sama so much."
"My explosion magic must be much stronger too. Let me try it now!"
"Save it for the enemies that may come. Don't forget you only have one shot. Use it on a strong enemy!"
Gao Yang hit her on the head for being reckless.
With her increased magical power, she might be able to fire two shots of her burst magic per day instead of just one.
However, she should still save her magic for powerful enemies.
"Hitting people won't make them smarter. Sister Artoria, Gao Yang-sama is being mean to me!"
"I don't see anything wrong with Gao Yang-sama actions."
"Hmph, you two are ganging up on me, a powerful and beautiful magician!"
[King of the Most Recognized Country: Alabasta!]
[Reward:
Natural resources increased by 20%
Land area increased by 20%
Overall physical fitness of the people increased by 20%]
[King Cobra: Ah!! Your Excellency Gao Yang, this... I don't know what's going on! Why is our Alabasta number one in recognition? We can't compare it to Dragon Kingdom!]
King Cobra is not happy about winning.
He thinks it is unfair.
[Kaido: The little devil is calm. He didn't get angry from embarrassment.]
[Vivi: Thank you, Mr. Gao Yang!]
Vivi is thinking about Gao Yang.
She thinks he is handsome, intelligent, and kind.
She believes that there is no man in the world who can compare to him.
She thinks that a princess befits a king.
"Isn't this what the Five Elders of the World Government use?" Garp asked in a deep voice, looking at the sky.
In the world, perhaps only the World Government can do this.
"Probably." Sengoku frowned slightly, unsure.
Many people in the chatroom were supporting Dragon Kingdom, but not everyone was.
For example, one of the Four Emperors' Big Mom was not happy.
[Big Mom: Why are Dragon Kingdom soldiers stronger than mine?!]
Big Mom's comment shocked everyone.
They had been so focused on the results of the poll that they had ignored the most important news: the Dragon Kingdom's army is stronger than the Four Emperors' army.
This is a huge revelation. Even if the Dragon Kingdom is not the most recognized country in the world, there is no doubt that its military power is second.
This is a major development that will have far-reaching consequences for the world.
[Kaido: I was surprised when Whitebeard got the Phantom Beast, but I didn't think about it too much.
[Law: That's normal. Pete is just a low-level soldier not a powerful fighter.]
Dragon Kingdom has a huge base of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, so even if there is a gap in strength and quality between them and the Four Emperors' armies, it shouldn't be too much of a difference.
Why can't Dragon Kingdom win just because they are fighting against the Four Emperors?
[Ochoku: You fool! With an army of 10,000 soldiers, Linlin can easily crush a kingdom! She has destroyed more than 8 or 9 countries already!]
[Whitebeard: It seems that the Dragon Kingdom's army is much stronger than we thought!]
[Kaido: Even if the Dragon Kingdom's army is stronger than Linlin's, it is still no match for our Beasts Pirates. We will defeat them!]
Compared to Alabasta and other countries in the world, Dragon Kingdom is the strongest.
Even Kaido thinks that the quality of Dragon Kingdom's soldiers is the best.
[Big Mom: That means there must be many people from all races, and it will be lively when they get together.]
[Garp: I can't understand Dragon Kingdom.]
[Neptune: Anyway, i don't have any idea about Dragon Kingdom, so i don't need to worry about it!]
[Cobra: Not bad! Our Alabasta is also willing to establish a good cooperative relationship with Dragon Kingdom!]
[Vivi: Mmmmm!]
[This troop ranking is over, and the next kingdom ranking will start broadcasting in three days! Advance notice, the next broadcast will be the kingdom military ranking!!]
