"Ask Qibukai to participate in the world's best martial arts tournament held by Kui Long..."
Garp scratched the white hair on his temples: "The brains of the Celestial Dragons are so powerful..."
"At the beginning, the group of Tianlong people seemed to want to send the navy general to participate in the world's best martial arts meeting. However, the Five Old Stars rejected it and finally chose a compromise plan."
"The Admiral is going to attend the martial arts tournament held by the Four Emperors?" Garp was stunned, then laughed so hard that he burst into tears.
Warring States sighed: "Garp, you laugh too much..."
"The Tianlong people really treat the general as a dog that can be manipulated at will..."
"Garp!"
"Tch" Garp smacked his mouth in displeasure: "Aren't the Five Old Stars afraid that there will be a few more vacancies in the Shichibukai? The Dawn Pirates have killed several Shichibukai."
"Probably not." Lieutenant General He held his chin and said: "The host of the first martial arts tournament is Gilder Tezzolo. The Dawn Pirates will not kill the pirates who come to participate in the martial arts tournament. They will also let They safely left the sphere of influence of the Kingdom of China."
"After all, China needs such a martial arts tournament to expand its national influence and improve its own power. If people who come to participate in the competition are killed wantonly, the next martial arts tournament will be ruined."
"It is also a good thing to let the Shichibukai participate in the competition. Several Shichibukai died, and the intimidation of the Shichibukai has dropped a lot." Sengoku flipped through the documents at hand: "However, I did not expect that the Shichibukai who had never obeyed the summons of the Navy Headquarters would The Thief Empress actually agrees."
"For pure gold..." Garp shrugged: "Pure gold can keep you young forever. No woman doesn't want to get it, right? Xiaohe."
Lieutenant General He completely ignored Garp's question.
"The Yonko did not participate in this Budokai, and the overall strength is much lower. Bartholomew Bear and Boya Hancock are likely to win first place."
"Don't underestimate some unknown people who suddenly appear, such as Yixiao..." Garp's voice gradually lowered, he still likes Yixiao very much, but it's a pity...
"Leave the martial arts meeting to these two people. Crocodile is still killing pirates in Alabasta?"
Lieutenant General He pondered for a moment and said, "Well, the pirate who ambitiously challenged Whitebeard more than ten years ago is now fulfilling his duties peacefully. It's very suspicious no matter how you think about it."
"No matter what, Crocodile is the King of the Seven Warlords. Without definite evidence, we can't do anything to him."
"Hmph!" Garp snorted coldly: "The pirates are clearly right in front of us, but the navy can't do anything to them. This is the biggest insult to the navy headquarters!"
"You can't say that." Lieutenant General He sighed: "At least the Shichibukai are indeed hunting down pirates, and they have captured quite a few."
"Judging from the reports sent from Impel Down City, the bounty criminals caught by Ulquiorra and Kakuzu are at least as powerful as four or five naval G8 branches."
"In the past year, the number of pirates captured and exterminated is more than the number of pirates captured by your G3 branch."
"..." Garp was speechless.
About four months ago, Ace actually ran away to become a pirate. His nominal grandfather and actual adoptive father was furious and immediately led the navy to chase Ace. Unfortunately, he was always a step late. He has been busy with this matter in recent months, which has resulted in a sharp decrease in the number of pirate groups that have been wiped out.
"The Dawn Pirates' offensive in the North Sea has slowed down." Sengoku brought up another topic: "The surviving agents sent back intelligence that the Dawn Pirates are consolidating their dominance in the newly occupied areas."
"The Dawn Pirates are obviously different from other pirate groups. They have a strict and meticulous official system and have plans to deal with various emergencies. Faced with the big cake of the entire North Sea, the Dawn Pirates did not choose to swallow it in one bite. , but gradually encroached and steadily controlled..."
"In the area that the Dawn Pirates have ruled for more than a year, there has not been a single turmoil or riot. Zhuge Liang, the commander-in-chief responsible for the entire war in Beihai, has a certain political level."
"Of course, Esdeath's strong external display also has something to do with it, but we must not ignore Zhuge Liang's role."
Lieutenant General He expressed his opinion: "To sum up, I think Zhuge Liang's bounty of 100 million has increased to 300 million beli."
"His brain alone is worth 300 million beli. I'm afraid this is the first person in the history of criminals with a reward..." Warring States smiled bitterly.
"Actually, I hope Zhuge Liang's bounty will be increased even more. Unfortunately, the World Government, which is responsible for paying, may not agree to offer such a high reward to a pirate who has never taken action." Lieutenant General He sighed, and the Navy Headquarters Everywhere is subject to the world government.
"A governor who can make the Ice Queen obey must have the ability to convince people." Garp also agreed with Lieutenant General He. He had fought against the Ice Queen several times and knew that such a proud woman would never be able to win. Won't take orders from a rubbish guy.
"Okay, I will report it." Warring States agreed.
"The strategy of luring the Dawn Pirates into a quagmire in the North Sea has failed." Garp continued: "Although the World Government still controls the East China Sea, the South China Sea, the West China Sea, and the first half of the Grand Route , the territory area, total population, and overall strength are greater than the Dawn Pirates..."
"But the reputation of the Navy Headquarters has declined, and it is an indisputable fact that there are more and more pirates."
"The navy only needs to complete its mission." Sengoku obviously didn't want to talk too much. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that there are problems within the World Government and the Navy Headquarters. The emergence of the Dawn Pirates has made this problem more serious, but reforming from within is not easy.
"...Ha" Garp breathed out, stared at Sengoku with sharp eyes, and asked: "The revolutionary army is not a pirate, so it does not need the navy to arrest them, right?"
Hearing this, Lieutenant General He raised his eyelids and looked at Garp without saying much.
"Yeah." Seng Guo answered expressionlessly.
"Then I don't care." Garp's own son was flipping the table of the World Government. Garp originally had a little concern, but as a result of the World Government's behavior, he didn't want to care anymore and just thought he was in charge of everything. have no idea.
"This is not your problem, Garp." Lieutenant General He comforted.
Garp led Dorag to join the navy. As a result, Dorag saw too much darkness within the navy, so he resolutely broke away from the naval system and established a revolutionary army.
The revolutionary army, which had been developing secretly, rose up half a year ago, causing the collapse of several unpopular alliance countries.
The World Government also paid attention to it at this time. The purpose of the Revolutionary Army obviously hurt the World Government's heart. However, most of the World Government's energy was still focused on the Dawn Pirates and was unable to conquer the growing Revolutionary Army.
Now that the Dawn Pirates have suspended their offensive, the World Government also feels that it is time to solve the stubborn problem of the Revolutionary Army.
Of course, this is also Zhuge Liang's trick to divert trouble from the east.
"Huh..." Zhan Guo reached out and pressed the bridge of his nose to relieve the headache, and finally said: "There is nothing else to do. Let's break up the meeting."
"Bang Dang" Garp stood up, knocked away the chair behind him, and left without looking back.
"Don't blame Garp." Lieutenant General He, who remained in his seat, said, "My son's revolution has caused a coup, and my grandson has gone to sea to become a pirate. He must be in a bad mood."
"I know." Warring States sighed. After so many big things happened, the World Government still did not make changes. The Tianlong people were still living like usual, spending huge sums of money to buy the slaves they wanted.
…
The Island of White Earth, Baldigo.
The soldiers of the revolutionary army welcomed Sabo and others who returned from victory.
"Saab, you did it again!"
"Our hero is back!"
"Haha..." Sabo scratched his head and accepted the compliments sheepishly.
"Ha..." Kerla let out a long breath and said, "You are not a hero. Sabo actually rushed into the enemy's fortress alone."
"Alas!" A revolutionary soldier said casually: "Isn't it true that Sabo has nothing to do? He single-handedly defeated the enemy's fortress at the age of seventeen. What a terrifying life!"
"It's nothing!" Kerla said angrily: "What if Sabo rushes into the enemy and is surrounded by the enemy, and something goes wrong?"
"Kerra is really worried about Sabo~" one person joked: "Our acting fishman karate master has identified Sabo?"
"What!?" Kerla's face turned red and she defended loudly: "I'm just caring about him as a companion who grew up, practiced, and fought together!"
"Kerra, you even omitted your name~" Others continued to tease.
"Uh--!" Kerla puffed up her cheeks, reached out her hand and pinched the speaker's face, and the flesh she pinched immediately turned red.
"It hurts! It hurts!" The revolutionary army who was pinched by Kerla immediately surrendered: "I was wrong!"
"Hmph!" Kerla then released her fingers, and the man immediately rubbed his face and ran away from Kerla.
"Saab!" Kerra was still not relieved, and rushed to Sabo angrily to educate him: "You do this every time, don't do it again in the future!"
"Eh..." Sabo looked unhappy.
"Okay, okay..." Fishman Haku advised from the side: "Anyway, nothing happened..."
"Huh?" Kerla glared, making her gentle and kind-hearted person full of momentum.
"You guys!" A female voice shouted in the distance: "You are all hungry! Come and eat!"
"I'm going to eat!" Sabo immediately ran away, patted his empty belly and rushed into the cafeteria.
"Ms. Jessica!" Kerra puffed up her cheeks.
"Let me teach you a way..." Jessica leaned into Kerla's ear with a smile on her face: "I guarantee you will take down Sabo."
"I-I don't care..." Kerla muttered softly.
"Really?" Jessica showed an expression of watching a good show and repeated: "Are you sure?"
"Well--" Kella bit her lip and nodded slightly.
"Women, don't be too strong." Jessica put her arm around Kerla's shoulders: "Especially in front of outsiders, you must leave enough dignity for men."
"When two people are alone, you act like a spoiled child and teach me a lesson."
"Oh, oh..." Kerla nodded repeatedly and wanted to take out a note to write it down, but hesitated and did not do so.
"After an intense mission, you should pay attention to Sabo's health and diet. At least let him know that you care about him."
"Ms. Jessica, you did the same to Jonathan..." Kerla suddenly stopped talking. She remembered the unfortunate experience of Jessica's husband.
"I'm fine." Jessica waved her hand: "It's been more than a year. Although I'm still sad, life has to go on."
Jessica followed Sabo, Kerla, and Haku back to the Revolutionary Army headquarters a year ago. Dorag also knew the resourceful Lieutenant General Jonathan. After learning the purpose of the Revolutionary Army, Jessica He immediately decided to stay in Valdigo and support this group of revolutionary troops.
Now she is responsible for the food of the revolutionary army. Her excellent cooking skills have won praises from the revolutionary army who are exposed to the wind and sun all day long, and she has quickly won the support of a group of revolutionary army.
"Besides, I also have a goal I want to pursue now, don't I?" Jessica looked back with a heroic smile, and Kerla nodded heavily:
"Um!"
The two women pushed open the door of the cafeteria and saw many fellow revolutionaries standing next to Sabo, chatting while eating.
"Go on..." Jessica gently pushed Kella's back and pushed her over.
“It’s remarkable that you can make such a big contribution at such a young age.”
"I'm afraid the day when you lead the revolutionary army is not far away."
"Speaking of which, I heard that there is a supernova about your age."
"Ah~ did you say 'Fire Fist'?"
Sabo asked doubtfully: "Fire Fist?"
"He seems to be a hot-blooded guy, but how long can he stay in the new world?"
"The name seems to be Portcas D..."
"Ace." Sabo added the name without any trace.
"Eh?" Kerra stopped.
"Yes, Ace, you know what's going on?"
Sabo's reaction was also very strange, and he asked suspiciously: "No, did I say something?"
"What, have you lost your memory again?" Others laughed.
"Ahaha..." Sabo also laughed bitterly.
"Saab!" Kerra approached Sabo: "Do you have any impression of the name Ace?"
"Ai... Si..." The flesh on Sabo's face squeezed together, and his face became distorted.
"Saab! Sabo!" Kerra shook Sabo's shoulders vigorously.
"Huh..." Sabo broke into a cold sweat and said, "I'm fine, this name..."
"Maybe it has something to do with Sabo's previous memories."
The revolutionary army chatting noticed the speaker and immediately shouted: "Chief!"
Dorag lowered his head and said to Sabo, who looked confused: "This 'Fire Fist' is also from the East China Sea, and may have known you in the past."
"..." Sabo lowered his head, trying to remember but couldn't get any answer. The memory before he was ten years old was still blank.
"You can ask him face to face."
Kerra asked with a worried look on her face: "But how can we find this pirate named Ace?"
Dorag took out a newspaper from the inside of his coat and threw it on the table: "As long as you are a pirate, it is impossible for you to be indifferent to the prizes of this martial arts competition."
Kerla read: "The best martial arts club in the world!"
"Saab, you can also go to this martial arts tournament and test your skill level in the world."
"...Okay!" Sabo reached out and grabbed the newspaper.
Some people died, but not completely...
