Pirate: I can copy your ability

Marine Headquarters is Marineland, where there are many warships and experts.

In the Central Military Building, Marshal Warring States was presiding over a monthly meeting in the conference room on the third floor.

To his left sat Lieutenant General Tsuru, the navy's general staff, and below him sat the yawning naval hero, Luffy's unreliable grandfather, Lieutenant General Garp.

On the right side, sitting at the front are the three current generals, the three strongest combat forces in the navy, Akainu, Kizaru and Aokiji.

Of course, a formal meeting cannot have only a few of them, but the rest are not worthy of having names for the time being, so I will not introduce them.

The meeting had come to an end, and just when Warring States was about to announce the end of the meeting, there was a knock on the door, which attracted everyone's attention.

After getting permission, the visitor quickly took the information in his hand, walked to the front and handed it to the newly named Navy Lieutenant Commander Brannu, and then silently retreated.

Brannu took a quick glance, his expression unchanged, then stood up and came to Warring States to report the contents of the document and asked if it needed to be disclosed at the meeting.

"It's still early, so let's talk about it."

"What's the matter, Sengoku? If it's not important, let's break up the meeting quickly. Everyone is very busy."

The only one who dared to speak so rudely was Garp.He is a cutthroat in the navy, with great achievements, strength and many friends.Therefore, even in the majestic headquarters conference room, you can still speak so unscrupulously.

"Shut up, I believe others are busy with something. If you have something to do, just sit there and sit there." The veins on Zhan Guo's forehead bulged, and he gritted his teeth.

"Hahahaha, I want to go back to see my grandson. How can you, an old guy who is no longer wanted, understand the joy of being a grandpa?"

Garp wanted to continue talking, but was kicked in the leg by Lieutenant General He next to him, and he immediately became honest.

"Warring States, let's continue the meeting and ignore this old guy who won't grow up."

He's voice was gentle, soothing the somewhat annoyed Warring States Marshal and preventing this farce from continuing.

Although everyone below knows that this is the way the two old people get along, they are used to it.

"Cough!" Warring States coughed. After calming down, he nodded to Brannu, who then walked to the bulletin board on one side and posted some information in his hand.

Everyone looked around and found that they were all bounty orders, and the amounts were not high, so they all cast doubtful glances.

Brannu did not hesitate, pointed at the bulletin board and began to report.

"I just received a report from Colonel Tina who was resting. There was a melee between pirates and navy in the West Sea, and a few people were involved.

This Lafitte was once the security guard of a small country. He was expelled for his brutal behavior and became a pirate. Previous intelligence showed that his combat power was average and not worthy of much attention.

However, the strength displayed in this battle was unexpectedly strong, and even Colonel Tina and Brigadier General Kiel failed to subdue them.

The suspected animal devil fruit user finally spread his wings and escaped from the navy's capture.

Several others belong to a pirate group called Clover.Captain Lu Gui, crew members Phil Buck, Gaddafi Bellou, and Bobby J. Mark.

Among them, Lu Gui also showed a strength that was inconsistent with the initial investigation. He defeated Colonel Tina in a single battle and used physical skills similar to the Sixth Form of the Navy. Later, after in-depth investigation, it was found that this pirate group had been active for less than a month. Year.

During this period, he defeated all the pirate groups he encountered, including twelve pirate groups with bounties on his head, but Lu Gui never took action.

Colonel Tina believed that there might be some conspiracy behind their deliberate hiding of their strength, so the reward amount for these people should be increased. At the same time, she hoped that she could be ordered to lead the team to hunt them down in the first half of the Grand Line.

The above is all the content in the information. "

After Brannu finished speaking, he distributed the information and returned to his seat.Warring States knocked on the table and then asked everyone:

"If you have any ideas about this new group of pirates, just tell me."

"Marshal, I think this is nothing. There are too many pirates entering the paradise (the first half of the Grand Line) every day. They are just one of them. Even if they have some strength, don't worry too much. Just arrange for Tina to chase them." Someone. He spoke.

"Indeed, we still have to focus more on the New World, which has not been peaceful recently."

Some people agree with the idea of ​​not caring, and naturally some people will oppose it.

"You are thinking things too simply. Judging from his past actions, Lafitte is cruel, murderous and scheming. Under such a premise, he can still hide his strength. It is obviously impossible to say that there is no conspiracy.

As for the Clover Pirates, if nothing else, a 17-year-old pirate captain defeated the elite colonel of the Navy Headquarters. If you don’t pay more attention, are you planning to make him the next Yonko? "

"I agree with your point of view that Lafitte has a conspiracy, but the following words are too exaggerated. There are countless geniuses in the sea, but very few can grow up.

We can increase the other party's bounty, so that pirates who want to become famous can be difficult for them to deal with without our navy taking action. "

"..."

Most of the people expressed their opinions, and Warring States nodded. He didn't agree with anyone, and he didn't disagree with anyone.

After the venue became quiet, he looked at Lieutenant General He on his left, and then asked:

"Crane, what do you think?"

At this time, everyone else also looked at Lieutenant General He, including Garp, a person who had never been reliable, with a somewhat serious look on his face.

"As other colleagues said, these people should increase the reward amount and pay more attention to them. However, there are some things that require more attention from us.

First of all, this Lafitte has been active in the park before, and according to the feedback from the intelligence department in my hand, he also appeared in Whitebeard's territory in the New World not long ago.

And I noticed him because I had a remote hidden clue, the clues I left before my death pointed to him.

Although I don’t know what’s special about the other party for the time being, after what happened in Xihai, we might as well make a bold assumption.

No one has seen his true strength before, perhaps because he has killed everyone who has seen him.

While hiding his strength from us, he secretly runs around the paradise and the new world, serving himself or some person or force that we don't know.

And he, or the people behind him, are planning a big operation. It is hard to say what impact this operation will have on our navy, and it is not certain what impact it will have on the pattern of this sea.

But considering the worst-case scenario, anything planned or planned by a guy with a gloomy personality, hidden strength, and a Devil Fruit ability user will not be a good thing, and may also be involved with Whitebeard.

So for this pirate, my suggestion is not to significantly increase his bounty to expose him, but to increase it appropriately and secretly send more spies to track him.

It's best to know yourself and the enemy well. Even if you can't, you can still create some trouble for the other party. "

Warring States nodded when he heard this, and then said:

"Tell me what to do with the remaining people."

"As for the members of the Clover Pirates! Haha, they are really interesting.

Judging from the information we have, they really don’t look like a group of pirates. They do not rob merchant ships or kill islanders. In fact, all their financial resources are stolen from other pirate groups. In terms of combating pirates , On the contrary, it did better than the navy in the West Sea.

Moreover, they had only established the pirate group for a short time. It would be far-fetched to say that Lu Gui deliberately concealed his strength. After all, his crew member Phil Buck could deal with any pirate ship he encountered, and there were not many opportunities for him to take action.

And he can also use physical skills similar to the Sixth Form of the Navy. I wonder if his elders were in our navy before. You know, there have been many retired navy soldiers from ancient times to the present. It is not impossible.

So I wonder if we can recruit them and give these young people a chance.

Of course, this time they had a conflict with the navy in the West Sea, and they took advantage of the navy. Punishment was also necessary. They could also increase their bounty and let Tina chase them.

If we can win over the best of our navy, it won't be too late to increase the intensity of the attack if we can't win over them.

After all, they have just entered the Grand Line, and there are many opportunities to deal with them. "

Lieutenant General He had a good impression of Lu Gui and the others, mainly because they were measured and did not kill indiscriminately.

"Hmph, there are no good pirates. Admiral Tsuru's methods are too weak." Akainu said seriously with a cold face.

Regarding Akainu's words, Lieutenant General He didn't explain much. He just smiled and looked at Sengoku, his eyes flashing.

"Akainu, you are too arbitrary. Besides, there is nothing wrong with recruiting them. As representatives of justice, we should be as generous as possible.

Just do what He said, send someone to monitor Lafitte, and increase his bounty to 2000 million.

As for the Clover Pirates, Captain Lu Qi’s bounty has been increased to 7000 million Baileys, while the others remain unchanged.

Do you have any different opinions? "The tacit understanding between comrades made Zeng Guo think for a moment and then said.

"No."

"Okay, let's adjourn the meeting!" After the words fell, all the naval elites stood up and left the conference room one after another.

In the end, only Sengoku, Garp and He were left, and they seemed to have other things to discuss.

……

The emergence of land regulations exposed Lafitte to the navy bosses in advance, adding a lot of variables to his subsequent plans.

And the Clover Pirates, relying on the incident in the West Sea, became a pirate group that had just entered the Grand Line, and the bounty on the entire ship exceeded [-] million, which is considered rare on the sea.

When the next day came, the navy's decision was carried to all parts of the world along with newspapers and news birds, which immediately caused a small wave of waves in some areas.

Like the Coral Islands in the West Sea, Y Dragon Island, Xingluo Island, etc., the places where Lu Gui and the others have stayed and the people they know all have a favorable impression of the Clover Pirates. The old village chief, Peggy and the others are even more familiar with each other. A proud look.

And Blackbeard Teach, who returned to the paradise from the New World, also read the news. He laughed a few times and didn't seem to care.

Of course, there are also people who hate land regulations, such as Lafitte, who escaped the pursuit of the navy and also entered the Grand Line.

He held the newspaper in his hand and looked at the boy in sunglasses who was smiling brightly and waving high.The eyes hidden under the hat were full of evil spirits, and he felt depressed thinking about the reward he had raised.

"Boy, let's meet on the sea, I'm eyeing you!"

Lafitte threw away the newspaper, spread his arms, and a pair of white wings appeared. After looking in a direction, he flapped his wings and flew away toward the rising sun.
