Chapter 1761: Twenty Years Later I
The seasons came and passes, the world spins and the years passes by. Twenty years passes by and the world has greatly changed.
After Death Monarch separated the world into ten realms, more and more changes happen to these ten realms.
These ten realms are now independent of each other
And each of them have their own complex problem and strength.
Some of the world powers practice isolationism and even then they could still supply their people with all the resources they need.
The world in twenty years has become more magical. There is all kinds of new plants, new animals, new flora and fauna.
But this is not the only change. More and more power system has appears since then. Every few years, there would be some conflict that would flare up between the world powers, but none of them would lead to a world war.
The Pirates once again building up and their strength could be felt in the Seven Seas. The only three seas that the Pirates did not dare to sail is the seas belonging to the Three Great Powers. Because of this strategy, the pirates managed to build up back their influence.
And not everyone was happy with the fact that the world was divided into ten or that the world powers get a hold of this influence.
More rebellion forces has appears.
But accumulation leads to strength.
The seven world powers is not easily overthrown.
If that happens, it would truly become a news that would shake the world.
For now, the seven world powers is still the most powerful force in the world.
And with the accumulation time they become more powerful. And remaining on the top of this is still Pandemonium.
The world seems at peace.
War is not frequent.
Though war is not frequent this did not mean that the world in the past twenty years did not see a battle or a war
Every once in a while there would be an alien invasion or an expeditionary force from another world.
But the world has been accustomed to it and each time something like this happens, the world powers would easily resolve it.
Sometimes it did not even need the world powers to make a move.
Some people would just go and fight these army by their lonesome and they could easily win. The world has become stronger and so the denizen of this world has also become stronger. Fortunately, the kind of enemy like Kaiju did not rose up.
The world powers also has grown stronger. But the world power are not the only force that is getting stronger.
One of the most famous fringe force in the world is the Crime Alliance. This is the force that fought Death Monarch two times.
They lost but it could be said that the fact that they could fight against Death Monarch, and fight against him two times, is enough to show the tenacity and strength of this organization
Last time they fought; they use Kaiju with the use of a Trident of Poseidon.
The battle was enough to show that given enough power, they could contend with the strongest person in the world
That battle could go two ways. Unfortunately for the Crime Alliance and the Pirate Lords, they lost in that battle.
And their vitality was squandered in that battle.
The Pirate Lords were killed and many of them had to fled far away from the world powers territories. The pirates damage is not as bad as the damage that the world powers inflicted toward the Crime Alliance.
Many of Crime Alliance pillars characters that hold up the sky for the Crime Alliance died in that war.
But after twenty years, they have recuperated and healed and the influence they hold today has also grown.
Before, they chose the wrong time to show themselves and step into the light.
Now, they hide in the shadow, even more carefully than before.
Yes, some of them are quite obvious.
There is their headquarters in some cities and a lodge in some villages. But most of their operations now are very secretive and the one that is public and in the public eyes are most expendable.
The important members the truly important operation would never be disclosed or shown to the public as openly as they display some other parts of their business
In a way, after being beaten twice they become like a secret society, under the radar, among the common people, but have their own secret way of living and their own secret language they spoke
It is like those Jianghu people, a community of their own
Everyone knows they are there.
But it would not be so easy to eradicate them like before.
After the defeat of the war, the Crime Alliance had learned its limit.
They could not defeat the world power the way they are.
They would need to organize and centralize power for any hope to fight the world powers, but
centralizing powers means they must be under a unified command.
The thing is, they are criminals. They are unruly in the first place. And they do not like
listening to order.
There are limit to their cooperation.
And the world powers are not stupid. They would not just let the Crime Alliance to strengthen
themselves.
The Crime Alliance has many spies. Most of them are deployed toward the Seven Great
Powers.
Just because they could spy against the world powers, doesn’t mean that the world powers
also couldn’t spy on them
The method of the world powers is also quite cunning.
It is not the first time that someone in the Crime Alliance wanted to unify command of the
Crime Alliance.
But each time they try to do so, the world powers, would leverage their differences in interest and any talks of cooperation would break down.
Criminals talks about interest and not about the world and the benefit of the world.
The world powers, yes, corruptions is everyone among the Seven Great Powers, but at least their top leader still have a cause
And this cause has a commonality between the other world power leaders.
In a way, because their interest and desire collide, they could unite with each other and they
did not mind relinquishing power and command as long as their noble cause could be
completed.
But if you ask a crime leader to relinquish their power, that is as good as killing them.
They all have different interest and desire.
And your interest sometimes clash with the other interests.
And the world powers knows this and that is why it is so easy for them to make the criminal
lords to fight against each other
Even if they know it is a conspiracy, it is a conspiracy that is hard to avoid and even harder to
stop
The Red Table, the governing body of the Crime Alliance also knows this.
To unify command is almost impossible.
They try to do it but once a setback is encountered, the morale of the forces would plummet
instantly.
So, they decided that they could not rule the crime world like the way the world powers
govern their regime.
The Red Table then decided to go deep.
They invisibly melded with the operations of the world and not as obvious. Instead, they learn
to live inside the shadow and exercise their influence in a more invisible way.
They tied their interest to people living there. In villages, in cities. And they are not greedy. What they could take, they take and what they could not, they let go.
This method is clearly working as they are growing and they are stronger than ever. But it actually took them twenty years for them to heal from that war.
They now understood certain things.
And they began trading with the world powers and many faction and forces around the world.
What did they understand?
The foundation is not stable and so they were nearly crippled and destroyed with one loss.
The world powers is different.
Their foundation is there. Even if they lost ten battles, they could still got up and mount a
counterattack.
The Crime Alliance could not rely on popular support of the world, nor could they buy the
hearts of the people.
All they could bind was the interest of people.
That was their foundation.
But instead, they fight for hegemony with Death Monarch?
How could they not lose?
They live in two different worlds.
Let the gods fight for the world and let the shrimps fight for the world of the shrimps.
If they wanted to fight gods, it should be the last resort and not the first action. They forget that the world has changed and criminal organization no longer rules the world.
In the past, it did not matter who sist in the White House, who sist in the Presidential Palace, who rules the kingdom, the one that truly runs the world are the crooks and the criminal organization.
But in the world after the Fall, there is beings like Death Monarch. When he is angry, the sky cracked and the world shakes.
When he wated to kill people., lightning from the heavens would smite them into
nothingness.
This is not a politicians that they could buy. This is not someone they could threaten. This is a
God.
And he is a wrathful god.
