One Piece: A New Era Unfolding
The World Government has declared war against the current ruling Yonkou after Akainu's sudden announcement that all pirates having bounties over 100million should be rounded up and executed publicly. Some speculates that the announcement was a propaganda thought up by the Tenryubito to finally seize total power over the world, but others suspects that an even bigger force was behind all of this. Although the idea seem absurd at first, however, with the not so private amassing of Pacifitas and powerful devils fruit users, the Government has been successful so far, executing over 150 pirates with bounties ranging between 200 to 700 million belly in plain public. Threatened by the turn of events, the Yonkou was forced to form a temporary alliance to strike back. The collision of both powers has tipped the world balanced immensely, and thus started the most anarchic era in history.
Current state of the New World:
The New World has become the most wretched anarchic zone ever known to this world, clash between pirates and marines were quite frequent in this region that it has become a common sight. Marines and Pacifitas are everywhere. They scourge the great seas, engaging any ship flying a black flag regardless of their law status. Common folks prefers to huddle in their own homes, while others choose to stay at certain designated evacuation sites provided by their Government. Crime rates grew astronomically, while resources are being hoarded by the World Government.
News about the Yonkou:
After his encounter with the three admirals and Akainu himself, Kaido has finally fallen. His remaining troops has scattered wounded in the New World, some joined the remaining Yonkous, while the others choose to stay hidden. This has been a huge blow to the pirate side, and so to ensure their power, the Yonkou has been secretly holding councils deciding as to who would replace Kaido's place, and fast. Many rookies has risen in terms of rank and fame within a short span of time, even making it to the short list of candidates. The ascension of a new Yonkou is to be announced in three days time.
The RP takes place during the preamble of the war, and goes deeper into the cause and finally to the war itself (hopefully) as we progress. So you can choose side between the Pirates and the Marines (or both). You can create your own pirate crew as long as there is a balanced number of devils fruit users, superhuman, and normal crews. I suggest you collaborate with other players if you plan to do so. Like wise if you want to make your own Marine corp, make sure the players are also balanced. For now I allow 2-3 characters per player max. If you have a specific role you want to play in the RP, just PM me so we can discuss it first.
