At the beginning, I summoned Li Jing, who is very cold, and I will fight against Hawkeye!

Above the vast ocean, a magnificent island - New Marinford shines like a shining pearl.

On this island, stands the Naval Headquarters building, a symbol of absolute justice. Its majestic and upright figure is like a sharp sword piercing the sky, which is daunting.

However, beneath this seemingly solemn appearance, lies an extremely fierce power struggle.

This struggle is like a surging, never-ending wave, constantly impacting the foundation of the Navy Headquarters.

During this turbulent period, Marcus Mas Saint was gradually seizing more than half of the power with the six vice admirals he cleverly placed in the Navy Headquarters.

At this moment, this self-satisfied man was sitting leisurely in his spacious and luxurious office. His slender fingers gently tapped on the shiny wooden table, making a crisp and rhythmic sound.

He looks like a victorious nobleman!

In those narrow and deep eyes flashed an unconcealable look of pride and ambition, as if he had already seen the moment when he would successfully ascend to the pinnacle of power.

"Now, we are only one step away from our final goal! But that stubborn Kong refuses to obey my command.

Otherwise, why would I wait so long for those people from CP0...

Sometimes it is useful to have that "identity", alas!" He muttered to himself, his tone full of dissatisfaction with Kong Gu Kong, but also revealed his confidence in future plans.

Indeed, every move carefully planned by Massan fits in tightly and advances steadily like precise gears.

Under his arrangement, the entire naval headquarters seemed to have become part of his pocket and was about to be firmly controlled by him.

However, this brief moment of smugness disappeared quickly like a flash in the pan.

In that instant, a shocking piece of news like a bolt from the blue came without any warning, and Mas Saint was thrown into an unbelievable abyss in an instant.

The news was like a violent hurricane, sweeping in with overwhelming force - CP0 captain Rob Lucci and cadre Kaku were both dead!

When Massheng heard the bad news from the CP member who came to report, his eyes widened as if his eyeballs were about to fall out of their sockets.

His originally calm face was now filled with astonishment, and his mouth was open wide enough to fit an egg.

For a moment, he froze in place, as if he had turned into a sculpture.

"This...how is this possible?!" Mas Sheng finally came to his senses and let out a cry of surprise with trembling lips.

He really couldn't accept such a cruel fact. In his impression, Rob Lucci had always been a man of extraordinary wisdom and strength.

Although he despised him, he never thought that he would die one day.

"How is this possible? Although I have always looked down upon that guy Lucci, how could he lose his life at such a critical moment..." Mas Saint kept repeating this sentence as if he had lost his soul.

His face turned as pale as snow, cold sweat dripped down his forehead, and his eyes were filled with deep shock and endless doubts.

"Who did it?" Marcus Mas Saint asked calmly.

And CP answered truthfully: "In the Golden City, the Four Emperors Jenny Tren did it."

"Also, the Holy Land has already begun selecting new CP0 members from among many candidates to fill the positions left vacant by this incident."

This news was undoubtedly a heavy blow to Mas Saint who was in the middle of it.

"New member..." Massheng sat in the spacious office, stroking his long beard unconsciously with his right hand.

His face was so gloomy that it seemed like water could drip out of it, and his heart was filled with anxiety and anger.

Because in the existing CP organization, only a few old men such as Rob Lucci were the capable men who were given to him to command when he left the Holy Land.

But now, Rob Lucci has died!

"How could he die?!" Mas Sheng roared in a low voice, his voice revealing uncontrollable grief and unwillingness.

Without such an important general as Rob Lucci, his subsequent series of intelligence gathering, secret missions and personnel arrangements will be seriously affected.

In an instant, a surge of anger surged in his heart, and Mas Sheng suddenly swung out his right fist and slammed it hard on the table in front of him.

There was a loud bang and the documents on the table were shaken and flew everywhere.

"Rob Lucci would never go looking for trouble with Jenny Tren for no reason.

Especially since we had close cooperation with Blackbeard at that time... unless..." Mas Saint frowned, thinking about various possibilities rapidly in his mind.

Gradually, a chilling idea emerged - someone deliberately lured Rob Lucci to Jenny Trent and killed him with a borrowed knife!

But who is behind all this? Is it a hidden enemy, or the man who has already replaced him?

Thinking of this, Massheng slowly raised his head and looked towards the ceiling silently.

His gaze seemed to penetrate through layers of obstacles and fell directly on the person who had bothered him.

......

At the same moment, Admiral Akainu of the Navy Headquarters stood quietly in front of the huge window of his office like a sculpture.

The sunlight shone through the glass onto him, outlining his tall and majestic figure.

However, what was puzzling was that at this moment, an extremely subtle, almost imperceptible smile quietly emerged on his usually serious and rigid face.

Akainu's eyes were not focused on the vast ocean outside the window or the busy port in the distance, but slightly lowered, falling on the thick pile of documents on the desk.

These documents pile up like mountains, seemingly carrying endless confidential and important matters.

But one of the documents stood out because it contained a Den Den Mushi that looked exactly like the one in Bakara's hand.

However, at this moment, the Den Den Mushi had already ended the call, leaving only the short but powerful words on the screen: "I will support you."

Faced with this promise, Akainu just said "yeah"

His voice was deep and magnetic, revealing an unquestionable sense of authority.

Then, a firm and cold light flashed in his hawk-like eyes, as if the whole world was in his sight and nothing could escape his control.

For a long time, Akainu has always used his extremely tough style to promote the justice concept in his heart.

Whether dealing with pirates or internal power struggles, he was ruthless and firmly defended the dignity and order of the Navy Headquarters.

However, he has recently changed his usual practice and begun to delegate some power to Massan.

This move seems unexpected, but in fact it is just a superficial strategy carefully planned by Akainu.

In fact, behind this seemingly calm appearance, Akainu has been secretly making plans without making any noise.

He was well aware of Mas Saint's ambitions, and was also clearly aware that if he continued to allow Mas Saint to expand his power at will, the Navy Headquarters would sooner or later fall into chaos.

Therefore, in order to maintain the stability and tranquility of the Navy Headquarters, Akainu felt that he had to act decisively and take a series of necessary actions to curb the rise of Mas Saint.

The death of Rob Lucci that happened not long ago was actually a key link in Akainu's huge plan.

Although on the surface, Lucci's death seemed like an accident or the work of other forces, only Akainu knew best that all this was a conspiracy carefully planned by someone.

This person skillfully used various means to successfully eliminate the obstacle of Lucci, thereby effectively weakening Mas Saint's strength.

"Zhan Guo is right. Those guys in the Holy Land who have nothing to do are the best at this kind of thing."
