I summon the shadow army in Pirates - Chapter 170

c2 Volume Summary and Remarks

The few hundred words at the end of the last chapter have been modified and replaced with the end of the second volume. I apologize to readers who subscribed in advance. If you didn’t see the end (the second volume, end!), you can re-download according to the directory to see the latest the end of.

…

The second volume, “First Show of Strength”, contains 101 chapters, a total of 270,000 words.

A lot of things happened during this period. I was tricked, I called the police and successfully got my money back. I didn’t make the cut in the first round of recommendations. I ran naked until 330,000 words were published. However, the subscription data was so bad that I feel depressed as I write this now. Four hundred and thirty thousand words.

I have so much to say.

First, let’s go back to the title of the second volume. The first representative meaning of “First Show” is that the reputation of the protagonist Coles has spread, and he has been known by all forces and has emerged.

At that time, I wanted to make the end of the second volume after the Black Flame City incident, but at that time, the book was about to be released, and the number of words in the second volume was a bit short, so I wanted to make it longer and did not summarize it there.

The second representative meaning of “first showing off” is the power of the Shadow Fruit. In this volume, the power of the Shadow Fruit has only just been revealed, and the S-level Shadow Soldiers have not yet been summoned.

Choosing to end after the chapter “The King’s Authority” is also to wrap up the second volume.

The protagonist finally controls the power of the king of shadow power, and the subsequent story will truly show the power and specialness of the shadow fruit.

Among pirate fans nowadays, fast pace is the mainstream, and slow pace is undoubtedly a big disadvantage. This is an undeniable fact.

I have also noticed this, and have accelerated the progress appropriately. You should be able to see this when reading it, but as I said in my acceptance speech, the rhythm of this book has basically been set in the early stage, and I cannot add any additional steps. too fast.

Just like I can’t jump directly to the story of Luffy going to sea after the protagonist graduates from the elite training camp. Although this speeds up the progress, what did the protagonist do in the middle of the year of 1519?

Such a jump will undoubtedly create a great sense of fragmentation in the novel as a whole.

All I can do is simply describe things to make the timeline pass faster. At least, such a story is reasonable and logical, and will not create too many gaps.

Rhythm finished.

Let’s talk about the characters and emotions in Volume 2.

In this second volume, there are not only the characters and emotions of the protagonist, but also the supporting characters, including Kahn, Mod, Dasqi, Veroch, Zefa, Zhu Yuan, Matthew, etc.

When writing among Pirates fans, writing this kind of group portrait writing seems to be putting the cart before the horse.

But my idea of ​​writing this book is to write a unique story. The characters in this story have their own emotions, and they are connected together to form a real and vivid story.

Character and emotion are important factors that drive the development of the plot.

Most readers were unhappy with the scene where the protagonist was interrogated. My two chapters aroused a large number of readers’ reactions, and many people directly bought or abandoned the book.

This is my problem. If I were writing in a fast-paced way, I wouldn’t write this kind of thing. But the problem is that I don’t write in a fast-paced way. I write in a slow-paced way. I need to write things that others don’t write.

After the Walerland Revolutionary Army incident broke out, the elite training camp students must be strictly investigated. This is reasonable and common sense thinking.

I can abandon logic and write a novel-style development, I can avoid writing the interrogation, and the protagonist will still have a smooth journey, but there are not so many smooth sailings in real stories. Ups and downs are the normal state of life.

Will the protagonist betray the navy? Of course, the introduction’s confrontation with the world government is already obvious.

After interrogating this plot, some people even disagreed with the protagonist’s reaction and felt that he should not continue to stay in the navy and should defect immediately.

Perhaps because of the influence of other pirate fans, everyone with a God’s perspective thinks that defecting is just a simple and easy thing.

But changing one’s position is not a simple matter, and it cannot be easily shaken.

If you can change your position with just a few words, what does it really mean?

The protagonist was tortured, which was a bit cruel, but everyone in the pirate world is physically like a monster. If you don’t interrogate like this to identify undercover agents, why should I send a beauty trap to seduce him?

The character of the protagonist created here is a very important part of the book. It involves the plot of the first volume and how people should choose in this situation. Because the protagonist repays his kindness, the protagonist did not say who Kahn is. Speculations of the Revolutionary Army.

After this trial is over, can the protagonist defect?

Obviously not.

The protagonist is a person with two lives of experience. As a time traveler, he has watched the military episode on TV and encountered this incident when the second phase of the elite training camp was about to begin. At first, he thought it was just an assessment, but later Then I realized it wasn’t.

When the special forces were trained by the country, they suddenly underwent a harsh traitor interrogation. The special forces proved their innocence. Do they have to feel resentful afterwards and directly betray the country?

People of faith, at least not.

Although this naval institution has criticism from the Celestial Dragons and some corrupt navy, the navy is still the justice for most of the pirate world.

The protagonist himself relies on the Navy. After entering the elite training camp, the Navy conducts a large number of trainings for training. At this time, due to the incident of the archenemy Revolutionary Army, the Navy began to conduct strict identification. This is understandable.

The protagonist will not defect because of this.

I can say that there is no problem with the handling of this plot.

The story progresses step by step, and the contact between the protagonist and the heroine Nico Robin has just begun.

Later, the absurd drama of the Celestial Dragons took away the innocent lives of 176 people. The shocking scene and a burned diary touched the protagonist’s heart and made him take action against Carlos.

Here I once again shape the image of the protagonist. He is cold but righteous, passionate and rational.

The protagonist carefully planned a plan to leave a way out for his family. He used the domineering color domineering to push the murderer to Pluto Rayleigh, but was witnessed by Rayleigh and threatened to pay in installments.

After this story was written, I personally think the plot development is very exciting, and there is a sense of ups and downs.

After that, the plot began to lose a lot of subscriptions. Maybe everyone doesn’t like to watch the clips of the protagonist’s family. I admit that I didn’t write well in this regard, and the subscription started to decline from there.

But I rarely write about irrelevant things. Previously, the original character Verroch led the undercover character Vergo, and the conflict between the protagonist and him was eventually implicated in Doflamingo’s plot.

The bounty of the underground world, the killer Al Dina, and the Don Quixote family are closely connected to the new round of story presentation. The protagonist cleared the opponent’s drug production base and officially clashed with Doflamingo.

And here, in the previous Chapter 45, the foreshadowing of the way to redemption was slowly unfolded. Bartolomeo, who changed his faith to the Bible, established the Cross Society and contacted the protagonist again.

There are still some foreshadowings I have arranged, which may take a long time to write. People may forget them when they read them, or even no one will care, but when I uncover the foreshadowing, I think my story will be more exciting.

Just when I wrote this One Piece fan fiction with my heart and thought that there would always be rewards for my efforts, the recommendation promotion failed and I ran naked to the shelves.

During this period, I once thought about cutting the book!

But I was unwilling in the end.

Faced with the bleakness of no recommendation, the only thing I can do is to continue to write a little more free period.

I endured for two months and wrote 330,000 words for the free period. I wrote almost half more free content for everyone to see than others put on the shelves.

Am I not working hard enough, not sincere enough?

I hope that everyone will have some feelings for the story after reading it for so long, and buy some money for this book, even if it is just a first order.

On the day of the release, I comforted myself that I could keep writing even if the subscription ratio was only 30 to 1 without a 20 to 1 subscription ratio.

However, reality gave me a hard slap in the face. The miserable subscription ratio of 50 to 1 made me feel like a clown being mercilessly ridiculed.

After the release, due to some influence of this factor, I was a little irritable when writing, and I didn’t have the courage to continue writing.

Maybe.

One Piece fan fiction should be written at a fast pace, it should be fun, like me, not following the trend, writing slowly and writing characters, it is destined to fail.

Even if I write more than 100,000 words for people to see for free, what’s the use?

This behavior is not even as good as the subscription increase of others’ fast pace with one recommendation.

I can’t refute it, because the average subscription of this book has only been 160 since it was put on the shelves.

I began to doubt myself.

I strive for the truth of the story, I seek logical consistency, I write differently from others, and I am committed to the emotions that the characters should have.

Is this really wrong?

Shouldn’t these be there?

I never believe it in my heart!

Because in my cognition, the story should have developed like this.

But the huge gap in reality makes me a little discouraged. After all, I am not a robot, and I will be affected by external factors.

The subscription is bleak and no one cares. All these make me almost collapse.

The future of this book, I see is all dark. I don’t have any writing skills. It feels very difficult to write thousands of words every day. If I want to become popular, it can be said that the hope is extremely slim.

The idea of ​​giving up echoes in my mind from time to time.

Change a book and start over!

What’s the point of continuing to write like this?

You should cut it off when the first recommendation fails. Who will care about your efforts? Cut it off early and end it early!

The feeling of failure keeps lingering in my heart.

As for the summary and reflections of this volume, I can’t update it today at my speed. Yesterday, I only wrote one chapter because of something, which is equivalent to being absent for two days. I can only exchange a leave note, so there is no full attendance benefit this month.

If I don’t write today’s summary and reflections, I should be able to maintain full attendance and receive the full attendance benefit of 2,000 yuan.

I also need money, but I have to vent the pent-up anger since I started writing the book. In the end, I chose to give up this full attendance and vent it out!

The consequence of this choice.

That is, the income from writing I can get this month may be only 300 or 400 yuan from everyone’s subscription.

It’s so ironic to earn 300 or 400 yuan in more than three months. I can earn more than that by working in a factory for a few days or moving bricks at a construction site for a few days.

Should I continue to persevere?

The influence from relatives, life, money, etc. constantly warns me not to continue writing. I am under great pressure all the time.

But,

Charlotte Coles’s story should not end here at least.

The story I want to write has just begun, and the segment I want to write has not yet appeared. I must write it.

The results may still be dismal.

But I still want to try, I want to make this book have the ending it should have.

Persisting in writing a million words and not regretting the results is also a kind of success!
