One Piece: Arrival on Sky Island at the beginning

The G1 branch of the Navy is located at the exit of the New World, close to the Red Earth Continent, and the Marine Headquarters Marinevando on the other end, forming two barriers to protect the holy land of Mariejoia where the Draco are located.

Among them, apart from Fishman Island, the only other channel connecting the first half and the second half of the Grand Line: Red Harbor, is under the jurisdiction of the G1 branch.

The Argentine mangroves owned by the Shampoo Islands also grow here. With the buoyancy of the rising bubbles and the help of cables, the Navy and the World Government built a channel called the Bubble Pod here.

As long as you pay enough Beli to the World Government, you can travel between the two ends of the Red Earth Continent in a bubble pod.

Such an important role makes it impossible for neither the navy nor the world government to abandon this place.

After the Navy and the World Government announced their withdrawal from the New World, the G1 branch still retained a large amount of military strength.

After the Navy announced a special operation against the Sky Pirates, Zefa, as a general, became the top officer of the G1 branch.

Eight battleships and 20,000 naval forces, such a terrifying number, not only brought absolute force deterrence, but also caused a big logistical trouble.

Therefore, even though Zefa wanted to fight pirates on the sea every day, he still had to return to the G1 branch to rest and recuperate every once in a while.

In the naval building of the g1 branch, Zefa stood in front of the huge floor-to-ceiling windows with his arms folded, looking at the square below him, where the lively navy members were frowning as they celebrated the arrival of the new year.

His frown was not due to the navy's playfulness. In fact, he was very happy to see this scene.

Although as a navy, it is normal to wander on the sea, but long-term life at sea and constant fighting put great psychological and physical pressure on everyone.

Especially since the new world is now extremely chaotic, the life of every navy can be said to be precarious.

Not to mention naval soldiers, even Zefa, as a general, is under a lot of pressure every day.

This is why you have to come back and rest every once in a while, especially during festivals like New Year.

The main reason why he was depressed was because the new year had arrived, but their special operations had yielded nothing, not even a trace of their target: the Sky Pirates.

The last time this helpless feeling appeared was when the navy was capturing the Roger Pirates. .seven

And when they found traces of the Roger Pirates, Roger gave them a big surprise, causing the whole world to be in turmoil.

He didn't want such a surprise to happen to the Sky Pirates.

At this moment, there was a knock on the office door, and as the door was pushed open, it was He who walked in.

Seeing Zefa's sad face, He also said comfortingly.

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself, Zefa, come out and relax, everyone is waiting for you..."

Seeing this, Zefa could only show a forced smile and nodded.

Although Zefa also wanted to have fun with the soldiers, he obviously understood that his participation would only make everyone nervous.

After all, the reputation of a general is not only power, but also intimidation.

He also knew this truth, so what she asked Zefa to attend was a gathering of senior navy officials.

As the sliding door was opened, a Japanese-style banquet hall came into view. As a general, he naturally sat on the top seat. Other senior officials sat cross-legged on both sides according to their positions. In front of them, there were There was a small table with relatively simple food and only a small bottle of sake.

As soon as Zefa and He entered the banquet hall, other high-level military officials greeted them with great respect.

"Teacher Zefa, Lieutenant General He!"

Zefa is worthy of the title of teacher. It can be said that nearly three-quarters of the senior officials in front of him have received his teachings and entered the navy after graduating from his naval training camp.

Among them, the ones he was most proud of were probably Kuzan and Porusalino in front of him.

As Zefa sat down, he also waved his hand.

"Don't be too formal. There are no rules today. Let's have fun and drink!"

After Zefa said this, everyone relaxed a little and started drinking in twos and threes.

Everyone was chatting, and unconsciously the conversation turned to the current situation in the sea.

"Yin Ax and Wang Zhi are really stupid. They were beaten to the door of their house and they are still busy fighting among themselves..."

"Isn't this a good thing? When they fight you to the death, it will be our navy's chance to clean up the mess..."

"However, it is really unbelievable that that guy John would die at the hands of the Sky Pirates..."

"It is said that many newcomers of the same generation have been stimulated. The new pirate named Moria has entered the country of Wano and is about to fight Kaido..."

"The pirate named Crocodile also threatened to take off Whitebeard's head..."

"The swordsman named Mihawk is also challenging powerful swordsmen everywhere..."

"Among this year's newcomers, there is a guy named Shanks, who is also very active..."

"I heard that the Navy has had enough patience with Barrett..."

Of course, not all naval officers participated. For example, Kuzan and Porusalino were just drinking wine.

At the back of the many officers, a rear admiral named Gaspard looked at his colleagues coldly, and had already begun to think about his future career.

Not long ago, the man contacted him and asked him to find a way to apply for external transfer, leave the headquarters, and go to Beihai to work.

If Gaspard is a person who believes in the so-called naval justice, he will naturally not give up his official career, leave his headquarters and go to the North Sea, but he is not...

Firstly, he is not willing to lose his life in a dangerous new world. Secondly, as a major general, if he can go to Beihai to serve, he will definitely be far away from the emperor. Thirdly, he is not willing to take such a big risk. Spy, finally, the man said that this deal would not disappoint him.

In fact, he is already thinking of a solution now.

But at this moment, the sudden siren sounded violently, making everyone come back to their senses, and everyone's expressions changed.

Because they understand that this siren means that there is a pirate invasion.

But there will be that idiot pirate group who will invade the naval base guarded by the general.

Even Whitebeard wouldn't do such a stupid thing.

At this moment, a navy soldier ran in in panic and shouted loudly.

"No, General Zefa, the Sky Pirates...the Sky Pirates invaded..."

Everyone was stunned, Kuzan and Porusalino even looked a little unconvinced.

Although they also knew that Ye Mu and the others were very strong, it would be a bit of a dream to invade the G1 branch with just a few of them.

"Go out and have a look..."

Zefa's expression immediately became serious. In almost a few seconds, he rushed out of the navy building and came to the square. However, unexpectedly, no trace of the Sky Pirates was seen in the square. On the contrary, all the The navy raised their heads in fear and looked towards the sky.

"Sky...."

Zefa reacted instantly and looked towards the sky.

Only a few clouds were visible, and in the blue sky, the pirate ship of the Twin Goddess floated slowly in the air. In the direction of the ship's bow, the figures of the Sky Pirates appeared in everyone's field of vision. ...
