Just when Ron was considering whether to go back and tell Sengoku a good word and tell him to beware of Mozambia, a soldier knocked on the door.
"Dong dong dong!"
"Come in… "
Wow...boom!
A standard and exaggerated leg-bumping salute, the visitor looked in reverence, raised his hand to Ron, and shouted.
"Report!"
"Major General Ron, I have a call for you!"
"I know, I'll be there right away..."
Ron nodded. At this moment, Mo Zambia suddenly said with a sad tone: "My soldiers didn't even see me..."
The soldier only noticed Ron just now and didn't even glance at the hospital bed.
This makes Mozambique very sad and feels that it has raised a pack of white-eyed wolves...
"Worshipping the strong is a common characteristic of living things, just like a herd of wolves and deer, the leader is always the strongest one."
Ron felt it was necessary to establish in Mozambia the belief that "strength is everything."
After all, the new world is no better than a paradise. Even the lieutenant general of the headquarters cannot say that it is invincible and safe.
And only if he secures his position as the head of the G-5 branch of the New World and stays under Doflamingo's nose, can he be able to create more obstacles for him.
"Caesar has already started to design the third phase of lightning stimulation equipment. I will help you talk about it and send one to the G-5 branch."
The coverage of the second phase of lightning stimulation equipment mainly covers the group of major generals and school-level officers in the headquarters, but it is hard to say for the third phase. The lightning stimulation instrument that can lead the Five Old Stars to classify it as a project of the same level as "pacifist", regardless of energy and material factors, the upper limit is almost the same as Ron's lightning stimulation method, there is no end!
Mozambia's eyes lit up.
"It's a deal?"
"It's a deal!"
"gone!"
Saying goodbye to Mozambia, Ron left the medical room.
…
Back at the office, the call bug has been waiting for a long time. It's not the simulated appearance of Tryon's felt hat and sunglasses, but the short white hair like a steel pin and the loose wrinkles on his face.
"Garp?"
Ron frowned slightly, wondering why Garp called him at this time.
Stretching out his hand, the phone bug's body trembled obviously and he suddenly shrank back.
His body was covered in blood, and the smell was astounding to his nostrils. The smell didn't seem strange to me, but it was quite pungent to a phone bug. At the same time, because he had just killed someone and was filled with murderous aura, ordinary people would not dare to stand in front of him.
There was no direct coma, the resilience of the phone bug race was already at work.
After all, it's a phone bug that all the four emperors use. What's the point of being easily stunned
Ron impatiently grabbed the trembling phone bug and asked, "What's the matter, Lieutenant General Garp?"
"Ron!"
Garp exclaimed with joy and shouted furiously: "Take care of the escaped pirates immediately! We can't let the news of Ace's defeat spread!"
"Ah? Why?"
There was naturally a reason to let them go, and since he was ordered to perform tasks by the Warring States Period, Garp did not have the right to give him orders directly. Of course, Ron wanted to know the reason.
At this time, the phone bug spit out an answer that stunned Ron.
Just listen to Garp take a deep breath and say seriously.
"We want Ace to succeed Crocodile as the Shichibukai!"
Let Ace...become a Shichibukai? !
Ron turned around suddenly and looked at Ace who had a strange look on his face. The guarding soldier had left the office after Garp called, and they were the only two here at this time. Judging from Ace's confused attitude, Garp didn't tell him in advance, or even communicated with him.
"Hey old man, what are you kidding me about?"
Before Ron opened his mouth, Ace yelled out: "I want to become the Pirate King! I don't want to be a Shichibukai!!"
"Asshole! Do you know what's going on now?!"
When Garp heard this, he became angry and yelled: "If you don't become a Shichibukai, you'll have to wait to advance through the city gates for the rest of your life!!"
Ron suddenly understood.
Indeed, in the original work, there was also a description of Ace being invited to be the Shichibukai, which even alarmed Shanks and Whitebeard. One day in the future, after Ace challenges Jinbe, he spends several months with Whitebeard before finally being impressed by that man and becoming his son.
but…
Now that Ace has become a prisoner due to his own intervention, he is no longer qualified to be the Shichibukai, right
"Lieutenant General Garp, I need an explanation."
Ron's face turned cold. He didn't care how important the war was. Now it was he who captured Ace, and it was his military exploits! If Garp wanted to keep Ace directly, he would be erasing his military exploits!
For Ron, not killing Ace was already for Garp's sake, and now he has to erase his own military achievements...
Are you fooling yourself? ! !
Hearing Ron's cold tone, Garp came back from his anxiety and was about to explain something when suddenly a hand came from the side and took away Garp's phone bug.
"It's me, Ron."
"Lieutenant General Crane?!"
Ron was shocked. Since Hedu appeared, doesn't it mean that this is something Marshal Sengoku nodded and agreed to
He glanced at Garp and said calmly: "Don't worry, the credit for capturing Ace this time will still be credited to you, but it will not be made public. The specific matter is very complicated, let's wait until you come back. Let's take care of it now. Destroy all the escaped pirates, don’t let the news of Ace’s capture leak out, do you understand?”
Ron, who was ordered by the marshal, could ignore Garp, but he could not ignore Crane, who was at the real decision-making level of the navy.
"Okay, got it."
Anyway, military merit is retained, so what else is there to say
Lieutenant General He was worthy of being the chief staff officer of the navy. Even though he was thousands of miles away, he could easily understand his thoughts and take care of everything.
Ron nodded and was about to go out, then suddenly turned around and said with a smile: "But Lieutenant General He, I think there are some things that you take too much for granted."
Let Ace, who has become a prisoner, become the Shichibukai. It is self-evident what role Garp plays in this. He considered the issue of public opinion and asked him to eliminate the escaped pirates, which was a very correct approach.
But there is still one problem waiting to be solved...
That's Ace, are you willing
Boom! !
Thunder echoed over Gaya Island again, and dazzling thunder fell from the sky like a waterfall, lighting up the sky! The pirates who had fled far away looked up at the sky in horror, and were immediately blasted into powder by the Thunder God's Judgment "coming from afar".
Here, Crane breathed a sigh of relief after solving Ron's problem, turned his face and said to Ace seriously.
"Portcas D. Ace, now as the General Staff Officer of the Navy Headquarters, I formally invite you to become the King of the Shichibukai. I wonder if you are willing?"
Crunch! !
Ace gritted his teeth, and it was unclear whether the expression on his face was anger or grievance. Two lines of blood and tears flowed across his cheeks again, and Ace whispered.
"Everyone of you is like this, talking to yourself and not caring whether others can tolerate it or not!"
Suddenly, Ace roared.
"Do you know what happened?"
"My crew, my brother, were killed by you!!"
"Now they want me to be a lackey of the World Government..."
"Are you kidding!!!"
"Who the hell is kidding?!"
Kapton was furious and burst into tears.
"Ace!! Do you want grandpa to watch you go to the point of no return?!"
“The point of no return is also the path I chose!!”
Ace immediately retorted without timidity: "That Ron is right! Pirates are not just a drinking game! The path you choose, you have to face everything that happens on the road!"
"What the hell are you talking about!"
Garp yelled angrily: "I don't remember how I taught you to be a lawless bastard!!"
"That's because of the blood flowing in my veins..."
"enough!!"
The phone bug suddenly blushed and suddenly burst out with an unprecedented volume. Even the windows of the small office trembled slightly. Ace was startled and looked at the black and red face simulated by the phone bug.
"I'll wait for you at headquarters, Ace."
"You are my grandson, no one can change this!!"
"Iron Fist" Garp, spitting is like an iron nail.
