The Grand Line, Chambord Land.
When the war started and the sea was filled with smoke, the Shampoo Islands, where pirates used to gather, became one of the safest areas.
As the gateway port into and out of the Holy Land, the navy has the most rigorous defense of Chambord. Not even a fly can fly through the Holy Land port. It is also the core hub of competition between the two sides.
At this moment, in a room deep in the hotel, Orric looked cold and clenched his fists.
"So, the country of Wano is gone?"
In order to sneak into Shampoo Land, Orrick spent a lot of time and effort, and it was only today that he finally had the opportunity to listen to the report.
However, this blow to the head made stars appear in his eyes.
To be precise, our power in Wano Country is gone, but Wano Country is still there... But the subordinates did not dare to explain and nodded tremblingly.
"Yes, it is."
"Everything happened too fast. The monster Soryu launched a blitzkrieg. We were unable to fight back. We were limited by the dangerous sea environment of Wano Country. In the end, less than... one-tenth of our companions escaped."
"waste!"
Orric stood up angrily and grabbed his collar.
"Where's the Black Carbon Orochi? What does he eat?!"
The subordinates trembled under the terrifying pressure and said with a mournful face: "Hei... General Hei Tan took action against Canglong, but he lost to his opponent. Whether he is alive or dead... is unknown for the time being."
But survival is unlikely.
Otherwise, given the importance the Black Carbon Orochi attaches to Wano, how could he possibly allow Soryu to act recklessly and overthrow their base.
“…”
Orrick was silent when he heard this. He naturally thought about what might happen.
Letting go of his hand, he sat back in the chair and asked tiredly: "Where is Kaido? Where is he now?"
Kaido had previously said that he would go out to clean up the naval assassination troops that had sneaked into the hinterland, but there was no news at all until now. The country of Wano is gone, and they have lost their foothold and need to find a new base camp.
Upon hearing this question, the subordinate's expression froze and he moved his mouth but was speechless.
Sensing something strange, Orric looked over with a bad expression.
"If you tell me you don't know... I think I'm going to have to think about a big cleanup of the intelligence services."
"Yes... I'm sorry!"
The voice was full of murderous intent, and his subordinate hurriedly knelt on the ground with an expression that was about to cry, and said: "Lord Orrick, since that day, the Beast Pirates have never contacted us proactively... We have lost contact for so long, we It was hard to find a piece of news, but..."
"Because it is too exaggerated, we are working hard to verify it."
"Oh? Tell me."
Orric raised his eyebrows. Did Kaido... make any big move again
Hope it's good news.
Gulu...!
Seeing this, the subordinate swallowed hard and whispered: "I heard that Kaido ordered the disbandment of the Beast Pirates."
"This incident is currently not spread widely and is limited to the New World. In the first half of the story, the Beast Pirates were still attacking the navy, so we cannot determine whether it is true or not. We suspect that the navy deliberately spread false news to disturb people's hearts."
Click!
The cup in his hand cracked and broke. Orrick raised his head and looked at him in disbelief: "What?!!"
…
There is a simple logic that the subordinate obviously didn't understand. Kaido disbanded the pirate group. Why should he rely on the movements of the Beast Pirates in the first half to judge
The guys in Beast Pirates don't have much sense of companionship.
Now that Kaido has announced the disbandment of the pirate group, everyone will go their separate ways. Except for a few ambitious people who are willing to recruit a team of people to start a new business, who is interested in informing them
The only ones who will help spread the news of the disbandment are their opponents, the navy, and various power-hungry forces.
So Orrick was pretty sure the news was true.
Kaido disbands the Beast Pirates!
There is nothing unusual about the first half of Pirates, but it proves it.
Since they are all disbanded, who will care about you? !
This is the style of the Beast Pirates.
Wulaoxing also knew the news. He, who was in charge of command at the base camp, was notified and rushed to the Holy Land to meet Wulaoxing.
"Is that so?!"
Crane's eyes widened and he gasped in disbelief.
"There is no need to doubt whether it is true or not. Our spies in the Beast Pirates have confirmed this. We have blocked the information at the moment. We are here to ask you, do you know anything?"
The bearded Five Old Star spoke calmly, and He was suddenly startled and replied.
"Just last night, Ron sent back the news that he had taken control of Wano and wiped out all the forces Kaido and Orric had left in Wano."
"Oh! Not bad, that little brat!"
The five old stars' eyes lit up, and they seemed to understand why Kaido wanted to disband the pirate group.
To be an enemy of the government, even if the general pirate group has as many members as the Beasts, it is impossible. The weapons, equipment, medical supplies, food, etc. provided by Wano to the Beasts Pirates are the top priority. Heavy.
All the supplies that Black Carbon Orochi had freed up by squeezing the people were invested in the war, which gave the Beast Pirates the capital to fight the government.
Now that the country of Wano has been wiped out by Ron, and the three-man alliance has been confiscated, Kaido, who is unable to support the operation of the army, wants to command the three armies with the fierce power of one person, but he knows it is impossible.
The war started with Ron's kidnapping as the trigger. They have always been in a passive situation of being beaten. Even if the navy is preparing to counterattack, it is still in the "preparation" stage.
Now that Ron has turned the situation around on his own, the Five Old Stars really don't know what to say.
He is always working miracles!
After surprising them, they felt a chill in their hearts.
"But we can't take it lightly!"
Counselor He digested the content of the news and said: "First of all, Ron successfully outflanked the failed kidnapping plan of Orrick and others, and there was also the reason why Orrick and Kaido left the country of Wano. Even if the underworld was solved, Tan Norochi, the remaining two should not be underestimated.”
Wu Laoxing put away his thoughts from joy and nodded.
"First? What's the second point?"
The bearded Five Old Star asked curiously.
"Second, it's the same as your lords blocking the news."
He frowned and said: "Kaido's disbandment of the pirate group is divided into six points for good and four points for bad. Fortunately, without his order, there will not be too many pirates who will continue to fight us to the death. Dealing with them on a large scale will bring The threat is certain.”
"The bad thing is what kind of crazy behavior those desperate pirates will do after they know that the captain has abandoned them!"
"The crazy wave of pirates in the early days of the Great Pirate Age is very likely to reappear because of this!"
In the early days of the Great Pirate Age, countless pirates crazily poured into the Grand Line and set sail.
It was the darkest and most chaotic period in the government's 800-year history. The biggest change was that the title "pirate" no longer belonged to a few villains, but to the mainstream of the times.
"I think you should be prepared for this, right?"
The bearded Five Old Star narrowed his eyes slightly and asked.
"The plan proposed by Ron has been implemented for so many years. Are you sure about it?"
Regarding this, He thought about it and spoke solemnly.
"Yes! But it will disperse most of the troops!"
This era was a prosperous age for the navy, which was not only reflected in the navy's skyrocketing personal strength and military equipment, but also in its impeccable transportation lines like a spider web.
The same era of great pirates, now, would require a lot of effort at most, unlike before, where we could only look back and sigh.
"That's enough! The Holy Land is not so weak that it needs your protection!"
Under He's surprised gaze, the bearded five-old star opened his eyes calmly and said calmly.
"Inform Soryu immediately to return to camp. Orrick and Kaido don't have the strength to cause any more trouble for us. The only target they can target is the Holy Land. We need to concentrate our efforts to deal with the upcoming attack."
"I see."
He looked at this scene with a complex expression and lowered his head silently.
If I had known this, why did I do it in the first place
Through investigation, she has already discovered that there is something wrong with Akainu and Ron, and the target is very likely to be directed at the World Government!
After a complex psychological struggle, she finally chose to ignore it.
Just imagine, if the Holy Land had stood up earlier and straightened its spine like it is now, perhaps nothing like Orric would have happened.
But that is impossible. The existence of the privileged class of Tianlong people makes the government reluctant to do so.
It can be said that the Tianlong people succeed and the Tianlong people fail.
Everything is too late.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
The five people in the room looked at each other in confusion, and then the bearded Five Old Star spoke.
"Come in."
"My lords!"
CP0 agent Kalifa, who was wearing a white suit, bowed and reported clearly: "General Aoki Pheasant woke up just now!"
"Oh! What's going on today? It's all good news."
Everyone smiled happily, but He suddenly frowned.
"Did he say anything?"
Unlike Wulao Xing, the Navy knows best about the code left by Qing Pheasant.
After being reminded, Wu Laoxing also remembered what happened before and looked over.
Being focused by the top power in the world, Kalifa swallowed hard and lowered her head to answer.
"There is."
"The first thing Admiral Aokiji said when he woke up was: 'Be careful of Neptune, she is not Shirahoshi!'."
Hearing this, everyone's pupils shrank.
"What?!!"
