By controlling the sea accesses and building the first segment of a great wall project in the south, the Juice Pirates were starting to secure their whole Homesea. Though, they were not the only inhabitants of that ocean.

Palmerageddon, leader of the Iborian Empire, had been living alone in the area for months since early 2015. The Apple people and the Iborians managed to build a respectful relationship and share the same sea in a friendly way. The two leaders have a common will to preserve beautiful lanscapes from building pollution, such as the forest around Kiwi. Moreover, the Juice Pirates are against artificial islands on oceans and prefer to settle only on naturally generated lands.

Up to that point, the Apple crew had lived quite peacefully. They did not have any allies or acquaintaces and did not travel outside their sea. Only the captain was fairly famous because of his Map and Timeline projects, published in may 2016.

The very first enemies were a pair of thieves, tree_blast and sticksrocks, also known as "the duck and the monkey", who lived in a fortress in the south. In early may, they burned down an unclaimed area of the cozy Fort Lard and stole a dhow from Apple's cobblestone box. Eventually the Juice Pirates managed to get in their base and loot it. ... was taken as hostage and forced to open chests. Riches were taken, revenge was achieved and Apple's dhow came back to home.

The name of the pirate who infiltrated in tree_blast's fortress was ggbrother "the lama". He was a sneaky juice pirate and his combact style became an example for the whole crew. In the early months of the Juice Pirates, enchanted armors and potions were almost an unreachable dream.

The 19th of may 2016 a coalition of crews and nations was called for a war against the Crusaders of the Void. AppleJK preferred to work separately against CoV as a secret addition. The Juice Pirates did not have many resources to lead professional assaults but wanted to show their position against the raiders anyway. One of the strongest beliefs of the Apple crew is that even though you are small, weak, poor, you can always help.

The ggbrother's school, as his military example was called, consisted in infiltrating enemiy bases without being noticed. He managed to get in JoeBlub's castle once but his expeditions towards CoV had to stop due to a new enemy from the far, infamous North Sea, where the biggest and more turbulent crews used to have settlements. The new crew was called the Defenders.

Lead by HaloBearer98, the crew had such name because they were defending the ruins of their old home, The Endurian Empire. HaloBearer98 asked AppleJK for an alliance, but it was denied. It was widely believed in Piratecraft that whoever was not an ally was a legit outburst for killing impulses.

HaloBearer98 did not like Apple's refusal and declared a "preventive" war on the Juice Pirates, underlining that they were growing too fast. His crew had diamonds and farms, while the Juice Pirates did not. The "overpowered armors Vs naked newbies" duel began.

HaloBearer was the first test for the Juice Pirates. A test for their buildings, a test for their skills and more importantly, a test for their patriotism and love for their Homesea. The conflict started the 21st of may when MasterM1214 got killed in his house (he was the only crew member who managed to slowly forge an enchanted armor).  HaloBearer98 organized punitive expeditions every day in full enchanted diamond armors with Nasher9898 and the rest of his crew. His explicit aim was to end the Apple crew. It was a matter of time to see who of the Juice Pirates would stand getting killed, robbed, sieged every day and who instead would fall to the raiders. Apple did not want softies in his crew. Not a step back, never, ever. Shame and mud to whoever begs for a break. No treaties or agreements with raiders. No half measures. Some Apple players abandoned the server because of unsustainable harrassment. Those who kept resisting instead, become tough. Tough and tenacious.

Apple was present at almost every siege, to make his comrades feel they were not alone. ggbrother was studying the Defenders Castle which was at the opposite side of the world and the Juice towns were improving their structures against sieges. The crew raised each other's morale and overcame difficult times togheter. The importance of collectivity was understood: a single twig can be easily broken, but a bunch of twigs is very, very difficult to break all togheter.

===Swordsman Arc (May-June)===


HaloBearer wanted AppleJK to surrender, but that was not happening. With GriefPrevention, resistance is always possible. The Juice Pirates experience shall be an example to whoever feels too weak to stand the evil. A combination of several events turned the table in favor of Apple. The crew managed to finish some fast underground xp farms in the same period when M4RT3S joined the crew. He was an experienced classic fighter, a swordsman. He revolutioned the ggbrother school by farming at spawners and forging superarmors. This new (but at the same time old, classic) military approach was the new way to respond to The Defenders oppression, even though the production of armor was extremely slow.

Meanwhile, the Crusaders of the Void fell. Solis, a precious Defenders ally, disbanded shortly after. At the same time, HaloBearer98 got publicly issued for taking over a Luteus town next to his castle. Overwhelmed by problems, he quit the invasion and removed the rivalry with Apple, then slowly faded out of the server due to personal complications.

After the end of the conflict, the Juice Pirates found quiet again. Although they had 8 active settlements, the crew was still quite unnoticed in the global scenario. In fact, AppleJK has always strived to keep its comrades inside the Juice Sea and avoid contact with outsiders. The plan was to reach a stable, wealthy level before opening its borders.

The British Empire was allied with raiding groups who helped them against the British Empire and were not able to break those ties because of stability purposes.

While trying to fight back GSG9, Asylum and Templars, parallel discussions were made between AppleJK and the British government to prevent unnecessary tension between their two groups.

The world outside was off-limits, hence the main focus was given to the general improvement of their sea defense.

During that time, M4RT3S helped the young xMadMonkeyx in his early days, starting a healthy, strong relationship.

New buildings, such as skyscrapers at Watermelon Dock, walls at Port Banana and cottages at Ananas Fjord were started.

A remarkable project was the Apple Galleon, a siege proof indiaman designed to travel wherever they wanted. Ships are often considered difficult to sail because of the lack of claims during travel but the Juice Pirates wanted to win this challenge and travel regardless of the danger.

The British Empire felt backstabbed by those who were previously their allies. During the debates, it was said that Templars were close to joining the League of Nations. In Apple's opinion, the thought that the LON had been considering to invite an aggressive crew such as the Templars was extremely disappointing. Despite of the LON intention and despite the British tension with Apple during the hacker purge, the Juice Pirates aided the British Empire in attacks and defense against Templars without being asked.

Remarkable battles were fought at Browe's sandstone fort and the Citadel. The first juice mending villager was found during the war and the Marulosseum was built at Marula with the combined effort of the whole crew. Later in august an agreement was made that the Elven Empire and the Asylum would have intervened only to defend their respective allies British Empire and Templars. Also, a system of minigame points was added in an attempt to define a winner of the war. The Juice Pirates did not take part in any of these agreements as they believe war is war and the first who stops is the one who loses. No half measures.

14 september 2016. Browe declared a stalemate with the British Empire and leaves the Templars. Many of them follow Browe's choice and spread in separate crews. Even though it was called a stalemate, the result was that Templars faded out, while Juice Pirates, British Empire and Elven Empire remained alive. Browe fought later the Juice Pirates with his new crew Phantom, but it did not last long.

The old friend of M4RT3S, xMadMonkeyx, founded a crew with Lucky_Vincentius, called The Laughing Coffin'. It was the first crew to fully agree on the ideal of global peace with no random people killed. A plugin alliance was made for military chat purposes considering the high amount of joint activity against raiders. It was also agreed to end the alliance and replace it with pure friendship as soon as peace was achieved in the world. The Laughing Coffin' later split and xMadMonkeyx created his own crew with CaptainKirn, called Underworld (unofficially, the Banana Pirates).

As regards the military field, a fierce conflict was waged strong against the Asylum and Piratequest because of their regrettable plundering activity. In parallel, while at the beginning AppleJK considered the Seagulls a pirate crew of sailors and adventurers and therefore collaborated with them, it was clarified by JamminMas that his crew was no way directed towards global peace and instead was focused on raiding. Hereafter Browe_ recreated his Phantom crew, which attracted several Asylum members. In a subtle way, they tried to keep a good image as ship builders and at the same time "raid every now and then".

A trend of ship battles had been started by JamminMas with a forum post. AppleJK did not want to take part in a sports game with his enemies. Instead, he would organize his own battles in the Juice Sea with guests he believes deserve a respectful approach.  The Phantom crew was then disbanded and recreated a few weeks later.

During this period, the Metrojuice was also completed, which allowed fast travel between settlements, and the Kiwi Tower was transformed into a giant clock. Kiwi Gulf became a port and a ship arena at the same time.

One of the basics of the crew life is that nobody can have individual bases. Everyone must live in a settlement of his choice and share farms with his fellow citizens. It is an original and important trait as towns become lively, like old player owned shops, and not ghost monuments.
