The country of Wano, the capital of flowers.
"Lord Orrick, something bad has happened. The phone bug signal has disappeared in the area you asked us to guard!!"
A guy dressed as a pirate broke into the hall before he could knock on the door and reported breathlessly.
In this regard, sitting on the tatami, Orrick's action of cleaning the wine glass stopped for a moment, and then he said with a normal expression.
"I understand, let's go down first."
"Uh... yes!"
The pirates were very puzzled. This place was one of the important places that Orric had repeatedly ordered not to be wrong. For this reason, he did not hesitate to execute a large number of guys who were not afraid of death and worked too hard to establish their authority, making them tremble every day for fear of something happening.
But now that something happened, why wasn't he anxious at all
He couldn't understand and didn't dare to understand. He nodded and prepared to leave respectfully.
The next second...
Poof! ! !
He pulled out the dagger with his hand and inserted it into his chest. The pirate's throat moved and he wanted to say something, but before he could speak, his vision went dark and he fell softly to the ground.
"We need to stop those guys from playing pirate games. They are really... getting more and more incompetent. Don't they even knock on the door when they come in?"
I'm afraid the pirate never imagined that the cause of his death would be because of something as trivial as not knocking on the door.
The corpses and blood stains were cleaned by others. While the attendants were cleaning without saying a word, Orik warmed the wine, poured himself a glass, and took a sip.
Looking at the cherry blossoms floating outside the window, the corner of his mouth curled up: "Counting the time, it is indeed these days...the days when the door opens."
"I'm right, aren't I, Soryuu?"
"I hid her in a place you will never find."
"I hope you won't disappoint me, little guy... This world needs your strength."
Outside the entrance hall, Lirisk leaned against the wall with his arms folded, his head lowered and his eyes closed.
Listening to his father's murmur inside, he silently opened his eyes and tightened his fists.
"Aolong!!"
…
Naval Headquarters, Marineford.
"What?!"
Akainu stood up in shock, and the large desk in front of him was pushed to the ground, causing other people in the conference room to look at him in surprise.
It's rare to see Akainu lose his temper like this.
But at this moment, he no longer cared so much and asked with a frown.
"How's Ron? Is he okay?"
"It should... probably... maybe... it's okay... right?"
Kizaru used three questions and looked back at Ron who was wearing a sling bottle on the bed. This was Smoker's warship, and he quickly caught up with it after flying all the way.
After a moment of silence, Kizaru continued.
"I'm sure he's not dead, but I don't know when he will wake up."
"After all, the opponent is Kaido. How can we beat him away without paying a price?"
People get tired and die.
It is not uncommon in the history of the navy for a guy to die of exhaustion on the battlefield due to exhaustion from long-term fierce battles.
There were obviously no fatal injuries, but he stopped breathing.
The best news is that Ron is not dead. With his immortality, he can always recover, it just takes a long time.
"That's good!"
Hearing this, Akainu breathed a sigh of relief.
Ron is a very important combat force for the Navy, even the strongest combat force they must rely on. If something happens here, it will not be good news for the Navy.
etc!
Suddenly, Akainu's eyes lit up.
Since Ron is fine, and Kaido was indeed beaten away and broke an arm, this seems to be... a God-given opportunity!
"Hey Kizaru, are you sure Kaido escaped?"
"Otherwise? Could it be that he was persuaded to leave? Is it that Kaido?"
"Trust me, Sakaski!"
Kizaru pouted in displeasure, with a look of wretchedness on his face, and said in a slow tone: "Moreover, Kaido was obviously panicked when he escaped. It is estimated that many forces will have spies who saw it. You will find out after a little investigation."
The ocean is not land. Environmental factors determine that it is difficult for any force to completely control the ocean. Is the Beast Pirates really the only one in the ocean of the Beast Realm
The answer is self-evident.
"No, it's important. I have to ask."
At this time, Staff He raised his eyebrows, and then said in shock: "Sakaski, do you want to... take the initiative to attack?"
"That's right!"
"This is too risky!"
He couldn't help but said: "Even if Kaido suffers heavy losses this time, don't forget that he still has two allies."
No one knows Orric's abilities until now, and his subordinates are even more mysterious.
Not to mention the black charcoal snake of Wano Country. Without two brushes, Wano Country had long been transformed into a processing factory specifically to supply arms to the government. How could there be such troubles.
but…
"If nothing happens to Kaido, wouldn't he have allies?"
Akainu looked at her majestically and argued: "These three guys have long replaced the four emperors as a new force threatening the peace of the sea. Even the government has to treat them with caution."
Different from the previous Yonko, among them there is a guy like Whitebeard who has no intention of power. Kaido, Orric, and Black Carbon Orochi, which one is not ambitious
The threat is huge!
This war has to be fought after all. If we don't take advantage of Kaido's injury and take the initiative to attack, do we have to wait for the other party to open up their position and then confront them
"I understand the truth, but don't forget Akainu. The agreed time is one year, and the one-year deadline... hasn't come yet!"
He explained solemnly, causing Akainu to pause.
It's not because of the binding force of the agreement on Akainu himself, but because of the agreement made by the Five Old Stars, Akainu had to endure the conflict.
Seeing Akainu's face darken, Crane breathed a sigh of relief.
continued to explain.
"Furthermore, Aokiji met Princess White Star in the new world. Although I don't know why, it is obvious that Princess White Star escaped from Orric's control... To win her over or get rid of her, without the threat of Neptune, not only the Five Old Stars will Breathing a sigh of relief is also the best time for us to start a war."
In this huge battle that can be expected to sweep the world, individual victory or defeat affects the local trend at most, just like Ron's defeat of Kaido in this battle, he played with the same momentum.
And the opponent relied on Shirahoshi, the "ancient weapon" Neptune!
As long as the White Star is eliminated and the war is limited to the navy and the three-person alliance, the Five Old Stars will be happy to see that situation, and the navy does not have to be timid and go ahead with it.
"I see."
Akainu is not a fool. Although he is very dissatisfied with the current situation, as He said, now is not the time for war.
They can't afford to lose!
"But don't even think about it, Kaido!"
After thinking about it, Akainu ordered: "Gather all the traces of Kaido for me, and tell Morgans, the 'big news' of the World Economic News, that I can turn a blind eye to his previous cooperation with Big Mom, but I want him to completely oppose Kaido!"
Morgans is the boss of Dahai's largest newspaper, the World Economic News, and Wanguo has one of Dahai's best intelligence networks. The combination of the two is nothing more than a "profit".
However, with the fall of Big Mom, Morgans was frightened all day long and repeatedly showed his favor to the navy to avoid being liquidated.
At the same time, he bribed Holy Land officials to suppress his unclean side.
but…
As long as the navy doesn't let go, who would offend the navy, one of the most powerful combat forces in the government, for the boss of the World Economic News
He didn't like this kind of guy who knew what he was doing. He nodded and said, "Leave it to me. I will make sure he doesn't leave any room for it."
Taken by the Navy's General Staff, who was known for his wisdom, it was obvious what happened to Morgans.
"So be it! Others will seize the time to improve the transportation network. If the war starts, the people will be our most solid backing, which will be more conducive to our strategic deployment."
After saying that, Akainu looked out the window: "Next, let's wait for Smoker to come back..."
There are only four pieces of the historical text of the road sign. Without any piece, you will not be able to find Raff Drew. It is of great significance to hold one of them in the hands of the Navy!
Boom, boom, boom!
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
Akainu frowned and said, "Come in!"
Hearing this, Seng Guo, who had retired to be the chief inspector of the navy, walked in with a serious look on his face.
"Warring States? Why are you here?"
He looked at him strangely. This guy had not asked anything outside the window since he retired, and almost never went out on missions. He wandered between the family town and the headquarters every day, and would tease Akainu whenever he had nothing to do.
As a result, Akainu was directly excluded from any meetings, big or small. Without his permission, he was not even allowed to approach.
Why did you come here suddenly today
Sengoku ignored this. He looked at Akainu, who was looking at him coldly, and took a deep breath.
"Something happened, Akainu, Aokiji's life paper has been burned almost half!"
Boom!
Akainu banged the table hard, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"What did you say?!"
