One Piece: The Straw Hat Pirates' Max-Level Swordsman

On the vast ocean, the Navy Headquarters, Marinford, stands like a solid fortress amid the raging waves.

This is the core area of ​​the navy, symbolizing justice and order.

Admiral Zhan Guo sat quietly in the spacious office, his tall figure looking somewhat solemn under the dim light.

The pile of documents on the desk in front of him was like a heavy mountain, pressing him to the point where he could hardly breathe.

Zhan Guo frowned slightly, staring intently at the pile of documents, his eyes full of helplessness and fatigue.

He slowly raised his hand and rubbed his aching temple. His wrinkled face was full of worry, as if the years had become even heavier at this moment.

His eyes revealed deep fatigue, as if he had experienced a long and difficult battle. Zhan Guo sighed deeply. This series of events gave him a headache.

The document only read: Speed ​​Sword Demon Lingtian broke into Impel Down alone, defeated Magellan, Hannibal, the Seven Beast Knights and others by himself, and destroyed most of the entire Impel Down.

These words were like sharp thorns, piercing Zhan Guo's heart.

Zhan Guo's fingers tapped lightly on the table, making a rhythmic sound.

The sound echoed in the silent office, as if it was the echo of his inner thoughts. His fingers were slightly bent, tapping the table again and again, and each tap seemed to carry his inner anxiety and uneasiness.

His eyes were sometimes focused on the documents, and sometimes looked into the distance, as if he was thinking about how to respond.

"It's really unexpected that Ling Tian has such strength." Zhan Guo murmured to himself, his tone full of surprise and worry.

His brows furrowed even more tightly, and he kept thinking about this sudden change in his heart. Impel Down has always been an important prison for the Navy, but now it has been destroyed by one person. This is undoubtedly a huge challenge for the Navy.

Zhan Guo continued to tap on the table, and the rhythmic sound seemed to urge him to make a decision as soon as possible.

"I didn't expect Ling Tian to be so powerful. He could fight against so many strong men on his own and destroy the Push City like this." Zhan Guo said to himself, his tone full of disbelief.

His voice echoed in the spacious office, as if it was a reaffirmation of this astonishing fact. He shook his head slightly, his eyes full of astonishment.

He slowly stood up, walked to the window, and looked at the rough sea outside, but his thoughts were completely occupied by Ling Tian.

"What kind of strength does it take to achieve such a level?" He murmured to himself, his voice revealing deep doubt.

Zhan Guo turned around, walked to the desk, picked up the document, and read it carefully again, trying to find some clues from it.

His eyes were focused and sharp, as if he wanted to dig out the secrets about Ling Tian from every word. His fingers gently ran over the words on the document, as if he was touching the vein of this shocking event.

When Sengoku heard that the World Government had sent the Seven Beast Knights to Impel Down to reinforce the defense, he felt relieved. At that moment, he seemed to see the impenetrable defense of Impel Down, and his worries were slightly relieved.

He remembered that he breathed a sigh of relief at that time, thinking that with the addition of the Seven Beast Knights, the defense of Impel Down City would be impregnable.

However, now it seems that these guys are not reliable. A trace of disappointment flashed in Zhan Guo's eyes. He thought that the Seven Beast Knights were strong enough to deal with any challenge, but he didn't expect that they would be so vulnerable in front of Ling Tian.

Anger welled up in his heart, and he was dissatisfied with the performance of the Seven Beast Knights. "These so-called strong men are so useless at the critical moment." He cursed in a low voice and clenched his fists tightly.

Zhan Guo sighed helplessly, and the sigh sounded like a heavy bell, echoing in the spacious office.

He slowly threw the document in his hand onto the table. The moment the document fell, there was a slight muffled sound, as if expressing his inner helplessness.

Zhan Guo's eyes were full of fatigue and worry. He looked at the pile of messy documents and felt powerless.

He stood up and walked to the window with heavy steps, his hands behind his back, looking out at the rough sea.

The waves continued to hit the shore, making bursts of roaring sounds, and the sound seemed to echo the waves in the heart of the Warring States.

His heart was filled with worries. The appearance of the speed sword ghost Lingtian broke the original balance and brought a huge challenge to the navy.

However, although Zhan Guo felt a little helpless when he saw one of the many documents, he was also somewhat relieved. His eyes scanned the pile of documents and finally fell on that special document.

A complex look flashed in his eyes, showing helplessness and a hint of relief.

It was clearly written on the document: After defeating the Seven Beast Knights, the Speed ​​Sword Demon Lingtian rescued Ace who was imprisoned on the sixth floor.

A complex expression flashed across Zhan Guo's eyes, which was a mixture of worry, relief and contemplation. He lowered his eyes slightly, as if he was in deep thought.

He knew that Ace was the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates, a powerful figure who was famous on the sea. Whitebeard, the legendary figure known as the strongest man in the world, had always wanted to rescue Ace.

This news was like a heavy stone pressing on Zhan Guo's heart.

The tall and mighty figure of Whitebeard and the powerful lineup of the Whitebeard Pirates led by him emerged in his mind.

Sengoku knew that if Whitebeard brought his pirate group to the Navy Headquarters, it would be a world-shaking war. The scale and destructive power of this war were unimaginable and would have a huge impact on the entire world.

If Ace was rescued, Whitebeard would have no reason to come to the Marine Headquarters, and if Whitebeard had not come to the Marine Headquarters, there would be no war.

This thought kept circling in Zhan Guo's mind. He began to weigh the pros and cons and think about the consequences of this potential war. He knew that war would mean countless lives would be lost and countless families would be destroyed.

As the Admiral of the Navy, he has the responsibility to protect the peace and stability of the world, but he also does not want to see unnecessary sacrifices.

"Fortunately, Ace was rescued. Maybe this can avoid a big war." Zhan Guo said softly, feeling a little relieved.

Although his voice was very soft, it was full of emotion. His eyes revealed a hint of relief, as if he saw a glimmer of hope in this chaotic situation.

He knew that although the crisis had not been completely resolved, a terrible war had at least been temporarily avoided.

Zhan Guo turned around and returned to his desk again.

He was well aware of the cruelty of war and was unwilling to start a war unless it was absolutely necessary.

He began to think about the next countermeasures, how to deal with the sudden appearance of the speed sword ghost Lingtian, and how to strengthen the navy's defense.
