"The director has been transferred by the Navy Headquarters, apparently to participate in a special operation."
Hannibal thought for a moment and replied, "Headquarters is going to take action against the Roger Pirates. We need to suppress their momentum as soon as possible! We must bring the Pirate King back... That's what the warden said!"
Even the top figure in the major prison had to participate?
Magellan thought to himself, "It seems they're getting serious now." He sensed that a great battle was about to break out!
Chapter 67 How can we manage the Navy when we're with you bunch of insects?
The warden of the Grand Prison was transferred to Naval Headquarters this morning.
Magellan was taking a dump early in the morning and was unaware of this. Upon hearing Hannibal's words, he sensed that a great battle was about to break out.
"Just completing a voyage around the Grand Line and becoming the Pirate King... why such a grand spectacle? Is there some profound reason I don't know about?"
Magellan pondered this in his heart, but for the time being, it was none of his business.
The commissioner has left, and as the deputy commissioner, he now has to deal with the prisoner escape.
"Follow me, let's go to level 6!"
Naval Headquarters, Marineford.
The large conference room was filled with numerous high-ranking naval officers.
Marshals, generals, lieutenant generals, chiefs of staff, the head of naval intelligence, and a host of other figures attended the meeting.
There was even the director of the Deep Sea Prison who rushed over.
"Is everyone here? Then, let's begin this operational meeting."
Chief Strategist Tsuru scanned the many familiar faces and immediately spoke up: "Regarding the Pirate King Gol D. Roger..."
"Wait, Staff Officer He."
A lieutenant general raised his hand to indicate: "It seems that Lieutenant General Garp is not here."
Marshal Kong replied, "Garp is chasing the Roger Pirates in the New World, so we don't need to worry about him for now. Tsuru, you can continue."
Chief of Staff He nodded, and just as he was about to continue speaking, another lieutenant general raised his hand.
"I have a question I'd like to ask first."
"Why is he called Gol D. Roger? That's what the arrest warrant says, and that's what the news is saying now. Wasn't Roger Gol D. Roger?"
The crane did not answer, pondering how to explain.
However, the Warring States period disregarded all of this and bluntly stated:
"The instructions from above are this: forget that name. From now on, whenever anyone mentions Roger, he will be called Gol D. Roger, understand?"
Many lieutenant generals looked at each other in bewilderment.
Gol D...
It's just a difference of one letter "D", what's the reason behind that?
Sora said calmly, "It's no wonder some of you don't know. The D clan is a troublesome clan. Long ago, they were known as the enemies of the gods and were enemies of the World Government, which means they are enemies of our Navy."
"Then Lieutenant General Garp..." someone asked in a low voice.
Monkey D. Garp, isn't he the same as someone with a "D"?
“Karp is special; he’s not in the discussion.”
After the God Valley incident, Garp was hailed as a "naval hero," and his prestige within the navy was comparable to that of a fleet admiral.
The meeting room quickly quieted down, and the issue of names was no longer being discussed.
Seeing this, Lieutenant General Tsuru steered the conversation back on track, saying:
"Regarding the Roger Pirates, the order from above is to defeat them as soon as possible and capture Roger, at all costs."
The other crew members are secondary targets, but Roger, as the captain, must be arrested.
The five top pirate crews in the New World are actually of no concern to the World Government.
But the Roger Pirates were different; they had already broken a taboo.
The World Government immediately issued a direct order, putting pressure on the Navy Headquarters.
Thus, this war council was convened.
After Lieutenant General He finished explaining the reason, Marshal Kong asked the entire group a question:
"So, what good combat suggestions do you have?"
Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes turned to General Sengoku.
Sengoku, known as a wise general, would always put forward some key proposals in similar actions, and this time was no exception. Let's first see what Sengoku had to say.
"The trouble with capturing the Roger Pirates is how to prevent them from escaping."
Sengoku calmly said, "I have a suggestion. According to the intelligence transmitted back by our Navy's surveillance ships in the New World, both the Roger Pirates and the Kuja Pirates have visited Wano Country."
Zephyr asked in surprise, "Wano Country? That samurai country?"
“That’s right, you all noticed it too, didn’t you? When the Roger Pirates arrived at Laugh Tale, there was an extra member on board.”
This is the intelligence Garp sent back: while pursuing the Roger Pirates, they encountered the brewer Damon.
Just over a month later, Roger became the Pirate King.
"Therefore, it is reasonable to suspect that the reason we haven't been able to find Dimon before is because he's hiding in Wano Country!"
Upon hearing this, Marshal Kong had a sudden thought: "What does this have to do with Dimon? Our target is Roger."
"It really has nothing to do with him, I'm just mentioning it briefly. What I actually wanted to talk about was the Kuja Pirates."
Sengoku smiled and said, "As you all know, Roger cares a lot about Empress Shakky. As long as we capture that woman, he will definitely come to rescue her..."
Before he could finish speaking, someone had already objected.
"No, no, how can we lay a hand on Xia Qi?"
"Yes, the Sengoku Admiral, Shakky is a treasure... cough cough, once Shakky is captured, pirates from all over the world will rush to rescue her, she has that kind of popularity in the world!"
"At that time, we will not only be facing the Roger Pirates."
Many people tried to refute him, which made Zhan Guo's face turn black.
Have these idiots forgotten the uniforms they're wearing?
Sengoku could only look to the marshal, as the key to whether or not to execute the plan depended on the marshal, who felt the plan was perfect.
As for the issue of capturing Shakky and causing more pirate crews to riot, it's not a big problem at all as long as the scope of the good news is controlled.
"Well..."
Marshal Kong stroked his beard and whispered to Sengoku, "Isn't it a bit inappropriate to make a move against a woman?"
Are you one too?!
The Warring States period was utterly speechless. She was just a woman, yet they were all completely infatuated with her.
No wonder the Kuja Pirates have been so successful in recent years; even when caught by the Navy, they can easily escape.
Not only can they escape, but they can also loot naval warships along the way.
What a piece of trash!
How am I supposed to manage the navy if I'm stuck with a bunch of insects like you?
Warring States period was quite resentful, thinking, "I'd rather be the marshal!"
"Warring States, do you have any other plans?" Crane shook his head helplessly.
"I think utilizing the Kuja Pirates is the best approach!"
Sengoku was not unprepared for this and immediately proposed a second plan: "Instead of actually attacking the Kuja Pirates, let's spread false information..."
Everyone's eyes suddenly lit up.
"A brilliant plan! No wonder you're a great general from the Warring States period!"
For you, any plan that doesn't involve Shakky is a good plan, right?
Despite harboring resentment, Zhan Guo continued his eloquent speech.
Wano Country, on the outskirts of the Flower Capital.
Twisted Future: Super Saiyan!
Dimon clenched his fists, his body surrounded by an aura of dominance, and suddenly, his hair stood on end, turning golden.
I tried clenching my fist, but my strength didn't increase at all.
"Hmm... No? I can't become a Saiyan in the future?"
The Year-Year Fruit is indeed not a god-level fruit; it can't even transform a Saiyan.
No, to be precise, it can change, but only its appearance.
Suddenly, Dimon sensed an aura approaching him, so he immediately deactivated his transformation.
He deliberately sneaked out because he didn't want others to see his teenage dreams!
Abel descended from the sky, holding a newspaper, and quickly said to Dimon:
"Lord Dimon, this is today's news; there's some major news!"
Dimon took it curiously, and upon looking at it, he was taken aback.
[Idol Empress Xia Qi has been arrested and will be sent to Enies Lobby for trial immediately!]
"What the hell? Shakky got arrested?" Dimon couldn't help but look at Abel.
Abel calmly replied, "She's currently holding an autograph session in the City of Flowers..."
"Pay for an autograph."
Dimon was at a loss for words.
He came all the way to his Wano Country and even swindled money from his cattle and horses?
Putting aside this farce, Dimon narrowed his eyes slightly, looking thoughtfully at the newspaper.
Chapter 68 Skill Four: [Domain Expansion]
"Abel, where did you get this news?"
Dimon pondered for a moment. This didn't seem like normal news; it was possible that Morgans had made a mistake.
This person has done a lot of things to boost sales, such as spreading fake news.
"I stole it from a newsbird."
Newsbirds generally don't come to Wano Country, and one of Abel's daily tasks is to fly up and snatch newspapers from newsbirds.
"Remember to pay next time. If you keep robbing people, you'll easily get blacklisted."
Dimon returned to the City of Flowers with the newspaper in his hand.
Today's news is a bit strange. Xia Qi was right under his nose, so how did she get arrested?
Not only were they arrested, but they were also told they would be sent to Judiciary Island for trial that very day.
Enies Lobby is one of the three major institutions under the World Government, and no criminal who has been convicted there has ever been found innocent.
Involving the world government makes it sound like fake news being spread at someone's behest.
"What is the purpose? If Xia Qi is captured, the whole world will be in turmoil."
Damon has a clear understanding of the Great Repression Era. This matter will definitely cause a sensation around the world, and may even surpass the popularity of Roger becoming the Pirate King.
Dimon had a sudden inspiration: Could it be that he was after Roger?
Back in Huazhidu, the city was practically deserted today, with a long queue stretching from one end of the street to the other.
In front of the inn where the Kuja Pirates were staying, Shakky held a pen and kept dealing with enthusiastic fans.
"Please write it on my chest, thank you!"
"Okay."
