In the summer, a contemporary young man who died suddenly in 996 passed through the most dangerous new sea area in the pirate world - the "Devil's Triangle" where the remnants of the Rocks Pirates are entrenched. With no money and no language skills, he was sold as a slave at the beginning. Awakening the [Stagnation Fruit] on the execution platform, starting from stopping the executioner's hand, and starting the journey up from hell.
He doesn't want to copy Luffy's journey, he wants to go his own way: establish the [Wings of Freedom Pirates], conquer those weirdos who have been abandoned by the world, and use modern thinking to subvert the rules of pirates. From stopping the sword, to stopping the activation of Devil Fruit abilities, to stopping the flow of domineering energy, and finally to the "rules" of stopping the entire ocean.
When the Five Old Stars were furious in Pangu City: "It's that summer again!" When Akainu's lava fist inexplicably solidified before swinging out, when Blackbeard's dark ability failed to activate - Xia Tian just smiled faintly: "Stop."
This is not a story about becoming a king, this is a story about changing the world. To make up for Ace's death? Save Whitebeard? That's just the beginning. He wants the slave's smile to spread throughout the world and the fear of the Celestial Dragons to penetrate into their bones.
"I'm not here to be the Pirate King," Xia Tian said while standing on the ruins of Mariejoia, "I'm here to tell the world - you guys, it's time to stop."
