Early sixteenth year of the Great Pirate Age.
The Ghost Hand Pirates set sail from Sky Island Bika and quietly returned to Qinghai. Although the return process was quiet, this time everyone's goal was no longer to simply survive, but to completely survive. Yes, turn this world upside down!
"Once we show up or expose information, we will be immediately targeted by the government, so before that, we must have all the information and plans ready to avoid improvising."
The boat sailed slowly on the sea, heading towards the island not far from Dressrosa.
With the help of the three arrows of the advanced recording pointer and part of the map of the New World, Rhodes and others determined their location after returning to Qinghai. There were still two islands away from Dressrosa, which was also the final buffer. zone.
Once you step into Dressrosa, it's time for all-out war!
"Our advantage is that we have a three-arrow recording pointer. The government and the navy don't know that our goal is Doflamingo, and they can't determine which island we are going to reach next. Using this, we can do Respond."
Luo stood next to the table with the sea chart spread out, holding the demon sword on his shoulder, and spoke in a deep voice.
Robin showed a thoughtful look and said: "You are right, but we cannot ignore the possibility that the government and navy have guessed our purpose, and Doflamingo, as the core of the dark trading network, will not remain indifferent."
Lafitte smiled evilly and said: "The Celestial Dragon on our ship can attract the attention of the government and the navy. If it can be designed perfectly, it will be comparable to a powerful combat force."
Ross stared at the chart. After thinking for a moment, he said in a deep voice:
"With our current level of attention, once we show up, it will definitely attract the attention of the government, navy, and Doflamingo's intelligence agencies. As long as a little more information about the route is exposed, some people can deduce our purpose. "
"So we must try to be as hidden as possible, at least not fully exposed until the second island. In addition, if this Tianlong man wants to be useful, he must also design it carefully. Do you have a plan?"
Ross asked towards Lafitte.
Lafitte smiled evilly and said, "There is indeed a plan."
Ross nodded and did not ask in detail, but continued: "The purpose this time is to destroy Doflamingo, but in addition, I also want to give the government a heavy blow!"
Speaking of this, a cold light flashed in Ross's eyes.
Robin looked at Ross, couldn't help but raise the corners of his lips, smiled softly, and said: "It seems that the captain already has a plan."
Rhodes, Robin, Law and Lafitte were all calm people who could formulate battle plans. After some discussion, all aspects related to the government, navy and Doflamingo were completely settled. Spread out.
Perhaps in terms of strategy and IQ alone, none of the people present can compare with Vice Admiral He, Chief of Staff, or Beckman, the vice-captain of the red-haired pirates, but together, they can combine many details. All considered.
After everyone’s detailed arrangements and discussions, the first island appeared on the horizon.
"The giants are too big. It's best not to go to the island. Although no one knows that they are our combat force yet, it is best to cover them up as much as possible to avoid any accidents."
"I think so too."
Ross nodded, everything was for safety's sake.
The Ghost Hands Pirates are not the Straw Hat Pirates. They don’t have the ‘Navy King’ grandfather, Pluto Rayleigh as their master, they don’t have red hair as their guide, and they don’t have their father, the leader of the revolutionary army. It can be said that they will be criticized by the navy and the government once they show up. Merciless pursuit.
soon.
Rhodes, Lafitte and others landed on the first island, avoiding exposure as much as possible, and purchased ingredients and some needed items on this island.
But even so, the intelligence network built by the government, navy, and the Don Quixote family is still extremely terrifying. Even the few people who came to the island did not show their bodies. They were hidden under Ross's ability and could only be purchased after purchasing The shadow of the black cloak was revealed when eating ingredients, and it has become a "clue" in government and naval intelligence.
certainly.
Since there are so many such clues, and most of them are meaningless false information or coincidences, by the time the navy and government use the elimination method, they find that this clue cannot be eliminated through investigation and seize it. Queen of heaven.
Not long after the Navy obtained the information, Doflamingo also obtained the information about Rhodes obtained by the Navy through channels.
but.
This is just a piece of information that it may be the Ghost Hand Pirates, and it only appears on an island. This alone can't tell anything at all, which makes Doflamingo frown.
The second piece of information about the Ghost Hand Pirates finally appeared ten days later. When this piece of information appeared, combined with the previous piece of information, the government and the navy finally got some valuable information.
Navy Headquarters.
In a certain conference room, the lieutenant generals of the headquarters were sitting on both sides. One of the lieutenant generals of the headquarters pointed at the chart and said in a deep voice: "On this route, there will be three islands further forward, but their purpose It’s hard for us to guess which one it is…”
Everyone else was also undecided, including Dauberman, who was sitting in the corner.
And just as everyone was talking, a smooth and clear voice came, "If we judge by probability, the most likely one is Dressrosa."
Sitting in the direction where the voice came from was a lieutenant general in plain clothes. The moment everyone saw her, they all showed a hint of respect.
Lieutenant General and Chief of Staff of the headquarters, Crane!
"Of these three routes, two except Dressrosa lead to the Sea of All Nations and the Sea of Beasts respectively, unless they want to compete for the status of the Four Emperors now... Of course, this is not impossible."
"The Ghost Hand Pirates once killed the Silver Ape of the Beast Pirates on Ice Island. With Kaido's character, if he appeared on that route, he would probably come looking for him."
He's hair was nearly half gray, but her tone was very calm. She spoke eloquently, linking all the information she obtained bit by bit to form a clear picture.
He mentioned the Four Emperors, the characteristics of the Ghost Hand Pirates, Ross's character, and Trafalgar Law.
at last.
He picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, which moistened his dry throat a little. He added: "There is too little effective information at present. We can only analyze so much, and the possibility is about half."
About half of the possibilities are going to Dressrosa, and the other half are the routes leading to the realms of the two Yonko.
This possibility is a somewhat confusing value. To deal with the Ghost Hand Pirates, a general must be dispatched. But for half the possibility, should we go to war in such a big way
No one present had the right to decide.
"Half chance..."
Marshal Sengoku sat on the main seat, showing a hint of contemplation. Now Akainu and Aokiji are not in the headquarters, only Kizaru is here. In order to deal with various matters, the headquarters must retain at least one general.
If Kizaru is sent out, if any emergencies arise, it will be difficult to handle due to manpower problems, and Garp will be expected to take care of things... He also wants to be a naval marshal for a few more years.
