Chapter 1557: Multiverse Dragon Tribe and Elf Council!
"Admiral Azure Dragon, I have looked into your past."
Shen He, sitting in the main seat, looked at Kaido without changing his expression.
"As the Captain of the Beast Pirates and one of the Four Emperors, you should be very clear that power itself is the greatest benefit, and the larger the power, the greater this benefit."
Kaido laughed, "I am now a Marine Headquarters Admiral. There aren't many existences with greater position or power than this in the World Government."
Shen He immediately replied, "Your military power is public authority, granted to you by the World Government during your tenure. Ultimately, it won't belong to you eternally."
"Putting everything else aside, can you have the Marine officers under your command permanently follow Yamato?"
These words caused Kaido's expression to freeze slightly.
Indeed, although he was an Admiral, according to military regulations, he truly couldn't use public resources for private purposes.
To put it bluntly, this military power could only be used for military affairs.
But outside of that, he truly had no power.
After all, the Beast Pirates had long since disbanded!
In this regard, he was not even as good as Charlotte Linlin.
She at least still had Totto Land Province and could mobilize tens of thousands of troops at any time.
Although Linlin treated Yamato like her own daughter, as a father, he truly couldn't have nothing.
Shen He sensed Kaido's hesitation and struck while the iron was hot, continuing to persuade him.
"And the Dragon Race we are about to establish will continuously absorb Dragon Race experts from various worlds, while also managing countless Dragon Race, Pseudo Dragons, Dragon-Humans, and Dragon Beasts. These are all forces you can mobilize freely when needed!"
Kaido was moved and immediately laughed, "That sounds good. The first problem is solved. What about the second problem?"
Shen He spoke without reservation, "In terms of strength, you are indeed stronger than this old man, and this gap will only grow larger."
If it were the Kaido of the past, Shen He would have been confident he was only stronger, not weaker.
After all, he had now recovered his youth, and his Essence, Qi, and Spirit had reached their peak.
But the current Kaido had already drunk his Essence Blood, and his potential upper limit must have been significantly raised.
Coupled with being in the military and constantly engaged in conquest, as long as he didn't die in battle, his strength would only continue to rise.
At this time, Shen He still didn't know that Kaido had already touched the threshold of Colorless Haki.
If he knew, well... he would probably first ask, what is Colorless Haki?
"But Admiral Azure Dragon, do you have the time and energy to manage and develop the Dragon Race that is about to be established and is constantly expanding?"
Kaido grinned and laughed, "Then I'll be the boss, and you can manage it, right?"
Shen He wasn't annoyed and countered with a smile, "What benefit would this old man get from that?"
He returned Kaido's first problem.
"What this old man wants is precisely the name of the first Clan Leader of the Sea Star Dragon Tribe, and what you want is the external force brought by the Dragon Race. Isn't it good for each of us to get what we need?"
Kaido sat in his position, deep in thought for a long time. Shen He didn't rush him, patiently waiting while drinking hot tea.
About ten minutes passed. Kaido raised his eyes, his expression becoming serious.
"Alright, the Clan Leader position is yours, but don't think you can use that title to order me!"
Shen He agreed without hesitation, "Of course, we will treat each other as equals. After all, this is a world where Might Makes Right."
This sentence held deep meaning. Might Makes Right...
It meant that if he became stronger someday, Kaido would have to respect him as the Clan Leader.
He didn't know if Kaido understood, but even if he did, he probably wouldn't care too much.
"Then what do you need me to do?" Kaido asked.
Shen He was in a pleasant mood, beaming with delight.
"It's very simple. Show the World Government your support for the establishment of the Dragon Race, and by the way, find a suitable territory for the Dragon Race. Since you are a Sea Star Person, you definitely understand better than us."
"As for the Dragon Race's territory, Fish-Man Island does have a Dragon Palace. If it were before, we could just seize it, but we can't now."
Kaido muttered to himself, lost in thought.
Shen He was instantly speechless. How could he immediately think about seizing someone else's things?
"If that doesn't work, we can just create another sky island!"
"Wasn't Upper Yard swept up to the White Sea by a Knock Up Stream four hundred years ago?"
"We can find some deserted islands in the great sea and move them up there!"
The more Kaido spoke, the better he felt about the idea, and Shen He also nodded repeatedly as he listened.
If they couldn't find a suitable Dragon Race territory, they would just create one themselves!
For them, this had no difficulty other than being time-consuming.
"The location is also readily available. Didn't the World Government designate this Divine Dragon Island as your territory?"
"Then we'll use this Divine Dragon Island as the core and expand outwards, directly occupying the entire sky above Wano Island!"
"Wonderful!"
Shen He was incredibly surprised.
According to Kaido's idea, the entire Dragon Race territory could be called Divine Dragon Island.
This was equivalent to having the official endorsement of the World Government.
In the future, if outsiders trespassed, they could make a move to eliminate them without any concerns.
It also guaranteed his qualification as the first generation Clan Leader!
In Shen He's view, this was a perfect decision.
"Good, good, good. Let's do that. We will immediately head to the World Government Headquarters and apply for the establishment of the Dragon Race!"
He planned to first get the Dragon Race officially registered.
Then, he would properly research the plan for expanding Divine Dragon Island and constructing the Dragon Race territory.
It was a pity that the World Government did not allow founding a nation.
Otherwise, he could have been the first king of the Dragon Kingdom...
But Shen He didn't consider that if that were the case, Kaido would never join, much less give him the king position.
King and subject, Clan Leader and clansmen, are completely two different things.
"Let's go!"
As soon as Shen He and Kaido walked out of the courtyard gate, they both leaped into the air, transforming into majestic Azure Dragons in the sky.
One was covered in green scales, with golden whiskers growing from its back, possessing an immortal and Daoist aura.
The other was covered in blue scales, with black dragon manes and Flame Clouds wrapped around its arms.
In the vast sea of clouds, the two dragons advanced side by side, leaving the Wano Island airspace in the blink of an eye and flying rapidly towards the RL0001 Area of the Red Line, where the World Government Headquarters Building was located.
Not long after.
Topman Warcury Saint, the Political Finance Wushen and one of the Five Elders, received a report from Dean Clifford Kray of the Political Affairs Department.
"Establish a Dragon Race?!" Warcury Saint was very astonished.
The World Government had indeed gained quite a few intelligent races in recent years.
Especially Falmart World, which provided nearly ten races.
Such as High Elf, Dark Elf, Headhunter Rabbit Tribe, Beastkin Race, Centaur Race, Medusa Race, Dwarf Race, and so on.
There was also the Rose Witch Tribe from Jupiter, next to Sea Star.
But these originally lived together as a tribe.
A situation like the Dragon Race, gathering on their own and then proactively proposing to form a race, was truly a first.
The key was that the Dragon Race was no ordinary creature. Their talent was no less than that of the Giant Tribe.
Moreover, Shen He and Kaido were going to absorb Dragon Race from various worlds to form a Multiverse Dragon Tribe.
This was even more peculiar.
One must know that Elbaf still hadn't recognized the Giants from Giant World, Zero Magic World, and Falmart World as the same race.
Also, Fish-Man Island did not accept the Aquatic Race and Medusa Race from Falmart World.
This resulted in them having to find other places in the deep sea to build their own 'Water Tribe Island' and 'Medusa Island'.
The situation was the same for the Elf Race.
The Elf Race from Zero Magic World were concentrated in Alabasta.
The High Elf from Falmart World lived in Area RL1002 on the Red Line.
The Dark Elf lived deep underground in this area.
Anyway, they didn't want to gather together, let alone recognize each other as one race.
However, Warcury Saint heard that these few Elf Race were recently discussing alliance matters.
They planned to form a 'Myriad Worlds Elf United Council'.
It must be said that these Elf Race were indeed very smart.
They had more brains than the Giant Tribe and Fish-Man Tribe!
But now it seemed that Shen He, this Old Divine Dragon, was even above the Elf Race.
Multiverse Dragon Tribe, they could really think of that.
It must be much stronger than a loose organization like the Alliance Council...
So, should he agree?
Topman Warcury Saint thought for a moment and felt there was no reason to stop it.
On the contrary, it was beneficial for managing these exceptionally talented dragons.
As for the possibility of them becoming too large and uncontrollable as they developed.
It was indeed possible, but it wouldn't pose pressure or threat to the World Government!
Topman Warcury Saint had great confidence in this.
