Chapter 235 Premonition of the Warring States Period

Warring States knew very well that there were many reasons for the failure of this battle, and it was not just who was responsible.

Even he himself did not think it through properly. He originally sent two generals, Kizaru and Zefa, but Warring States considered it carefully. Although Flying Squirrel and Pitbull provoked Whitebeard on Clockwork Island, from Warring States' point of view , with Whitebeard’s personality, he would also think carefully when faced with the determination shown by the navy.

However, no one expected that Whitebeard not only appeared, but also almost all the captains of his squad showed up.

Because he did not understand the relationship between Ace and Ian, Sengoku did not discover Ace's role in this. This led to Sengoku being shocked when he heard the news of Whitebeard's appearance, thinking that Whitebeard had appeared. Beard is planning to start a war with the navy.

He is even a little lucky now that Akainu was not sent out in the first place. No matter what, Kizaru and Zefa would still assess the situation. If Akainu were to take action instead, the consequences... it would be a bit unimaginable.

Whitebeard will definitely fight with Akainu... That old guy with Whitebeard hates Akainu very much...

Forget it, what surprised Sengoku most was that Ian and Fujitora were so strong!

In his mind, he originally had a high evaluation of the Dragon Hunter Pirates, otherwise he would not have dispatched two admirals at the same time. However, it turned out that his evaluation was still a bit low.

This is also the reason why Sengoku stared at the intelligence officer after hearing Kizaru's report. Now is not the time to attack each other and hold people accountable.

On Sengoku's desk, there are currently three documents. One is the CP Intelligence Organization's investigation report on Ian and Fujitora, and the other is sent by Zefa about the detention of two of his students. As for the last report, it was sent from the World Government, regarding the invitation for Ian, the captain of the Dragon Hunter Pirates, to become the Shichibukai.

On Salamis Island, there was actually an intern reporter, Pulitzer, who reported the entire battle. This surprised Sengoku. It was precisely because of the existence of this reporter that not only the Navy, but also the World Government witnessed the entire battle. During the battle, when they saw that Kizaru was injured by Ian's sea stone bullet, and Fujitora and Zefa were fighting inextricably, the World Government knew that it was expecting the navy to recover the identity chip within a month. It's impossible.

During this period of time, the Tianlong people have continued to put pressure on the world government, which makes the Five Old Stars very tired. If they were just forced by the pressure of the Tianlong people before, they wanted the Navy to invite Ian to become the Shichibukai If so, after seeing the whole process of the battle, they began to think about this matter seriously.

There is no doubt that the strength shown by Ian in the battle with Kizaru is indeed enough to become a Shichibukai. The 500 million beli bounty offered by the Tianlong people now seems a little less. There is no feeling of inflated height.

If Ian can be brought over, the world government and navy will have another powerful fighting force.

Therefore, there was this report before the Warring States Period.

However, Warring States looked at this report, but was still unable to make a decision. He had read the CP's investigation report on Ian. This young man who suddenly rose up seemed to have come from the East China Sea and had been a pirate hunter. , and captured several famous pirates in the East China Sea.

At the beginning, Warring States had once doubted that this young man named Ian had any relationship with the tyrant Bartholomew Bear. After all, the two of them wore exactly the same hats.

However, judging from CP's report, Ian and Xiong did not have any involvement. On the contrary, Xiong did have a fight with Ian when they were on Shampoo Island, and there are traces of the battle at that time as proof.

From this point of view, this young man is indeed a target that can be fought for. If possible, Sengoku even thought of absorbing him into the navy, because Sengoku could see from the analysis report that this young man did have a sense of justice.

It's just... there is a sense of justice in success and a sense of justice in failure. It is precisely because of this sense of justice that Ian, a young man, completely turned against the navy after meeting the Tianlong people.

Regarding this kind of situation, Warring States has actually seen a lot of this in his many years of naval career. Sometimes he himself feels that the Tianlong people are just a bunch of pig teammates who have forced countless people to oppose the navy... Unfortunately, under pressure from the World Government, the Navy had to help the Celestial Dragons cover up their slave-raising...

Although the navy was very unhappy at the time when Ian killed Vergo, the base commander of the G5 branch base, so the navy resolutely dispatched the general to pursue him, but now as the one-month deadline is coming soon, the pursuit failed, and the Warring States Period also ended. He had to face the matter of inviting Ian to become a Shichibukai.

Now, with the battle scene on Salamis Island, Sengoku has an intuitive understanding of Ian's strength. It is not so difficult for Sengoku to accept the fact that a vice admiral was killed. .

There are these investigative reports

, Logically speaking, Sengoku can reluctantly accept the invitation to Ian to become a Shichibukai, but... there is one more thing that Sengoku is still unsure about.

That's Whitebeard!

The report sent by Kizaru mentioned that the new member of the Whitebeard Pirates, Fire Fist Ace, appeared during the battle and fought alongside Ian, and then Whitebeard appeared.

What Sengoku is not sure about now is this. He doesn't know what the relationship between Ian and the Whitebeard Pirates is!

Everyone understands that the Shichibukai is a navy that uses their strength to influence and intimidate ordinary pirates. It also plays a powerful card to counter the Four Emperors. Generally speaking, as long as the strength and reputation are enough, then becoming a There is no problem with being a Shichibukai. With the power that Ian has shown now, it won't be a big deal even if Sengoku lets him become a Shichibukai.

But the problem is that the Shichibukai were originally meant to check and balance the Four Emperors. If Ian and Whitebeard were simply wearing a pair of pants and let him become the Shichibukai, wouldn't that mean the Navy shot itself in the foot?

Let a person from the Four Emperors come to work as an undercover agent in the Shichibukai! ?

"No, I have to suppress it for the time being!" Warring States thought of this and put the report document of the World Government into the drawer.

He wanted to continue the investigation and confirm it before proceeding. If one side just sent an invitation to the Shichibukai to Ian, and the other side turned around and joined the Whitebeard Pirates, the navy would become the laughing stock of the entire world.

After suppressing this document, Seng Guo picked up another reward order, and it was a photo of Fire Fist Ace.

If Sengoku didn't pay much attention to Fire Fist Ace before, then after learning that he joined the Whitebeard Pirates, Sengoku had to pay attention.

"Poscat D. Ace?" Through CP's investigation, Sengoku has now learned Ace's real name. When he saw the surname D in Ace's name, Sengoku immediately felt that something was wrong. .

"It's the same as that old guy Garp... What's the relationship between Garp and him?" Warring States looked at Ace in the photo in confusion: "A member of the D family?"

Thousands of threads gave Sengoku another headache. The position of Marine Marshal was not easy to sit in. After making the decision to continue to increase the bounty for Fire Fist Ace and increase efforts to investigate him, Sengoku took up the position again. Zefa's report.

As an old friend of the same period as himself, Warring States has always respected Zefa. When he came forward to ask Zefa, a retired former naval admiral, to come forward, Zefa agreed without hesitation. It can be said that Warring States is Owing his love, two of Zefa's students are now being detained by Whitebeard. Due to circumstances and reasons, Warring States should help rescue them.

However, Warring States also knew that this report must be handed over to the hands of the Five Old Stars of the World Government, because if they want to exchange for the two students of Zefa, they must make compensation to the Principality of Salamis. These are the members of the World Government. Within the scope of responsibilities, the Navy cannot overstep its authority.

According to Sengoku's estimation, if this report is submitted to the World Government, it is very likely that it will not receive any response!

Warring States knew that the two detained students of Zefa were the two survivors. These two students were very important to Zefa, but not necessarily in the eyes of the World Government, because they were only two captains with the rank of captain. They are just naval soldiers. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are new recruits. Salamis is a non-member country. If the World Government is unwilling to admit defeat and wants to maintain face, then it will not make any compensation to a non-member country.

Therefore, from the Warring States Period, the only option was to use Whitebeard's name. It was impossible to compensate a non-franchising country, but it was possible to compensate Whitebeard.

Don’t doubt it, this kind of compromise has happened countless times to the world government…

Of course, such compromises cannot be made openly. They are all carried out secretly. The navy cannot interfere with these matters. The World Government will secretly send CP intelligence agents to contact Whitebeard.

"I hope I can bring back Instructor Zefa's students..." Warring States sighed softly, leaned back on the chair, closed his eyes and rested.

He knew that his affairs were not finished yet, because the next thing that troubled him the most was the pressure from the Tianlong people. If the identity chip could not be recovered for a day, Warring States had to endure the questioning of the Tianlong people for a day.

"What is his relationship with Whitebeard?" Warring States wondered: "It doesn't seem like he is Whitebeard's adopted son..."

After thinking about it, Zhan Guo didn't know where, but a thought suddenly came to him: "It would be great if this young man named Ian turned against Whitebeard..."

When he thought of this, Warring States couldn't help being startled by his own thoughts. He smiled mockingly and said, "How is this possible!"

However, what Warring States didn't know was that his delusion actually became a reality a month later...
