west sea
A dog-headed ship slowly rushed out of the windless zone, and then the sails fluttered, revealing a seagull symbolizing justice.
On the warship, Garp was sitting on a beach chair set up on the side of the ship, with two fishing rods hanging beside him, but his eyes fell on the newspaper he just got. Watching Garp put his hand into the big dog-headed hat and scratched it.
"This is really troublesome ~ this bastard boy!"
Gritting his teeth and speaking incomprehensible words, Garp closed his eyes.
There wasn't much content in the newspaper, but he found the part he wanted to know at once.
That guy Ace entered the new world so quickly, and even directly provoked Whitebeard during this period.
Of course, the reason for this is not difficult to guess.
Because of the situation in the West Sea, the navy has deployed a lot of mid-range combat power from the Grand Route area to solve the problem in the West Sea. The problem that this has caused is that the manpower in the Grand Route area is suddenly extremely tight, and the suppression of pirates has also been temporarily lost. It has reached a low point, and with the departure of Shanji at the end of the Paradise, many pirates who had been suppressed for a long time rushed in swarm. The navy can control the Shampoo area without causing chaos, which is the limit.
Only then did Ace, that bastard, go directly to the new world quietly.
Of course, if Ace went to the New World and developed in a low-key manner, Garp wouldn't have such a headache now. The key is that this guy seems to be overestimating his ability to challenge Whitebeard for the goal of One Piece. According to Garp's understanding of Ace's gangster, this kid will definitely do what he says. That fool would challenge Whitebeard without hesitation.
That silly boy had no idea that Whitebeard was not on the same level as what he faced in Paradise.
The Red Earth Continent is not only the dividing line of the great sea route, but also the protective umbrella of the 'Paradise'~
Unfortunately, it's too late to say anything now. I just hope that old guy with white beard can show mercy.
"Lieutenant General Garp!"
"What's wrong?"
"……fishing rod……"
Garp looked at his footsteps and saw that the two fishing rods that were originally fixed had disappeared.
The fish that was dragging the fishing rod happily on the sea surface in the distance seemed to feel something and made a splash with the fishing rod.
Soldier"……"
Karp "..."
After two seconds of silence, Garp coughed twice, "Um, is there anything else besides this?"
"The Warring States Marshal at our headquarters sent the latest information on the West Sea. The mastermind of the turmoil in the West Sea, Selde Beccado, has gone into hiding with his cronies. It is speculated that he may have used deep ocean currents. In addition, the person who reported the relevant information seems to have been Shan Ji who entered the West Sea was accidentally killed."
"Ah, Shan Ji, that naughty little brat?" Garp didn't believe it a little, but he quickly realized that this was probably only half of what he said. "And Nan?"
"Marshal Sengoku said that Becca had taken away a very important Devil Fruit. I hope Lieutenant General Garp can provide support while stabilizing the situation in the West Sea."
"Really, it probably has something to do with the historical text." Garp said nonchalantly while picking his nose, "Don't worry about them, it's not my business."
The soldier had a cold sweat on his face: "Lieutenant General Garp!~"
Garp glanced lightly, "Ah, you can't say this. Just pretend you didn't hear what I just said~"
Soldier:…o(╥﹏╥)o
Although the senior said during the handover that you need a strong heart to stay with Lieutenant General Garp, but...
I feel like my heart is too small.
If any of these words reach the ears of the World Government, big problems will arise!
In the end, thousands of words converged into one sentence.
Lieutenant General Garp...Niu 13!
"Then... then Lieutenant General Garp, who are we next?"
"Zzzzz..."
"Lieutenant General Garp!"
A hand patted the soldier's shoulder. It was Bogart, Garp's adjutant.
Bogart shook his head. "Don't bother Lieutenant General with this matter. Just go directly to the nearest naval base for a wave of supplies. Subsequent scheduling issues will be arranged by Admiral Aokiji who is already in the West Sea."
…
New World, White Earth Island Baldigo
After a brief handover, Sabo and Kerra separated and came to the dragon's room alone.
"Oh, you're back. How about this mission? Isn't this mission suitable for you?"
Sabo took off his tall hat and placed it on the table nearby. His expression instantly stiffened when he heard Long's words, "Master, you already knew about Ace's matter in advance, right?"
"Not satisfied?"
Long showed a playful smile. This expression was somewhat rare for him because he rarely teased people. Of course, most of those who knew him well knew that he was just unfamiliar with most people. He is still relaxed in front of his own people.
Sabo smiled awkwardly, "Master, is it really interesting for you to be like this? You know it, but..."
"Surprise?"
Before Sabo could finish his words, Long interrupted. Just a smile made some aunt smile.
In fact, he himself had never discovered that Sabo had such a relationship with his son before. But there is no other way. Ever since I broke up with the navy, I haven't been back to my hometown very much. The last time I went back, I didn't go back to Windmill Village because of the incident where the Tianlong people burned down the final recycling station. When I talked to the old man, the old man just stayed there. Emphasizing that Luffy will be trained into a qualified marine.
Who would have thought that the 'Lan' organization would suddenly tell him that his son still had such a relationship with his apprentice, and while he was a little happy, he also had a rare bad taste. Seeing that Sabona was obviously very happy but seemed to have suffered a big loss, Long was very satisfied.
"Surprises are surprises, but don't let this happen again. I'm afraid that I will suddenly disappear."
"Is that so, you want me to help you forget about this period of time?" Long said teasingly.
Sabo quickly waved his hand and smiled bitterly, "Master, please stop teasing me. If it weren't for those things, how could I have forgotten those things with Ace and Luffy."
"So is it done?"
Sabo smiled and shook his head, "How is it possible? We are the ones who want to become the Pirate King! How can we give up on our dreams so easily?"
"So the mission failed, right?"
"Um."
"Okay, I originally arranged for you to go and reminisce about old times. The recruitment thing is just incidental. It doesn't matter if you fail. The next thing is really a mission."
Saying that, Long pushed a document to Sabo.
"This is the plan that Locker guy came over a few days ago. The discussion between the World Government and the dark giant has ended. The West Sea will not be chaotic for long. You go and arrange our new comrades. By the way, your position has been adjusted. You are now an official advisor, so behave well."
Dragon then asked some more information about Ace and Luffy.
After Sabo left, Long picked up another document from the table. This information is not much, but it contains a face that is very familiar to Sabo.
"Poscat D. Ace."
Long looked at the photo above and couldn't help but rub his temples.
"I didn't expect him to be the son of Roger, who was considered impossible to exist. What you did, old man, is really unexpected."
"But... the red-haired guy actually did that kind of thing with my son. It seems that I have to find time to have a drink with him. I don't know how his fight with Kaido went. This time, his behavior was a bit reckless. Yeah~"
Apart from these things, Long looked at the newspaper thrown aside and thought for a moment. Then Long used a special phone bug connected to a black phone bug to make a call.
"Marco has something I want to talk to your dad about..."
…
At this moment, on an island in the new world, the Spade Pirates who were exploring the island encountered an uninvited guest.
A fat blue man.
"I am not talented. I belong to the Shichibukai, Jinbei. I traveled thousands of miles to have a word with your captain, Fire Fist Ace."
"Oh, I didn't expect it to be King Shichibukai~" Ace, wearing a sun hat and looking cool, slowly walked out of the crowd. Looking at the fat blue man Ace who showed no malice in front of him, he smiled and said, "I am the captain, Poscat D. Ace. Tell me, what do you want?"
Jinbei didn't show any pretense and stated the purpose of his trip straightforwardly, "I came here to prevent you from challenging Whitebeard."
Ace's smile suddenly faded, and his brows became more serious, "Are you Whitebeard's lobbyist?"
"No, my actions are all based on myself." Thinking of the news from Fish-Man Island before, Jinbei became even more determined to stop this farce that was destined to fail.
Ace is a person who has gained the friendship of Fish-Man Island. Although Jinbei is a Shichibukai, he is still essentially a person from Fish-Man Island. He does not want such a person to have conflicts with Whitebeard. This was the reason why he came to stop Ace this time.
Ace shook his head, "Let's go. I am the man who wants to become the Pirate King, and I will definitely challenge Whitebeard. The old guys from the old era have grown old, and now it's our turn as people from the new era!"
Jinbei sighed, then his expression condensed, and some fighting spirit emerged from his body. "If that's the case, then I can't let you move on."
"Interesting, you mean that if you want to challenge Whitebeard, you have to defeat you first, is that what you mean?" Ace also showed fighting spirit. The battles during this period of time made him understand his own power more and more thoroughly. Especially after the few battles after coming to the new world, his use and understanding of Haki improved by leaps and bounds. This is also his confidence to challenge Whitebeard. . "In that case, there is nothing more to say. Let's have a good fight!"
[As the captain of the second team and the person who was deliberately trained by Whitebeard to be his successor, how could Ace's combat power be so poor? Many of the performances in the anime were actually because the domineering setting was not fully developed when Ace died. , and Ace's weakling at the top of the war actually has a reason why he has been imprisoned for a long time. To put it bluntly, how can you, a death row prisoner, be fed and slept well when you know that you will be rescued by many people? We can completely understand that Ace was originally capable of fighting Akainu, but he was accidentally killed when he was in poor condition and his fruit ability was suppressed. 】
