Pirate: Fourth Scourge

Chapter 149

Naval Headquarters, Marineford.

It was lunch time, so most of the Marines from the headquarters came to the cafeteria.

Among them, the Sakura Flower Restaurant is only open to Marine generals at the school level and above.

Of course, you can enter with school-level Marine generals, but few school-level Marines dare to eat here.

Because the people who usually eat here are at least the people who started Rear Admiral.

By this time, there were already more than twenty people seated at the round dining table, which took up half of the entire restaurant.

However, today’s restaurant atmosphere is the same as the previous few days, a bit dull.

The old man of the “atmosphere group” who usually likes to tell some past deeds during dinner, changed his normal, these days, he kept his head down to eat and eat, without saying a word.

What is it that makes a Marine hero who always has a smile on his face looked sad recently. Few people know about the entire Naval Headquarters.

Those who know do not say, those who want to know dare not ask.

Suddenly, a rush of footsteps gradually approached from a distance.

“Garp Vice Admiral, as well as additional charges, Vice Admiral, Gion (qi, second tone) Vice Admiral, Marshal Sengoku summons you to the meeting room!” A seaman appeared at the entrance of the restaurant and reported loudly.

“Huh? Is there anything that can’t wait for us to finish lunch?” Jiaji glanced at him.

“But… But, Marshal Sengoku said, the situation is very urgent…” Cold sweat broke out on the forehead under the brim of the sailor’s hat.

“Then go, I don’t have any appetite anyway.” Garp stood up and said.

Seeing this, the other two had to put down their bowls and chopsticks and stood up.

“Didn’t the marshal call the rest of us?”

A Marine Vice Admiral who looked vicious on his face asked.

“Report the ghost spider Vice Admiral! Marshal Sengoku only asked me to inform Garp Vice Admiral of the three of them.” The sea soldier quickly replied.

“That’s it…” Ghost Spider nodded disappointedly.

The marine showed a stiff smile, and after saluting the group of people at the dinner table, he turned and left the restaurant.

Garp and the other three Vice Admiral, who were called by their names, also left the restaurant.

After Garp and others left for a few minutes, the remaining Vice Admiral Rear Admiral in the restaurant started talking.

“Although we are Vice Admiral at the same level as us, they are still Admiral alternates… Many conferences that we are not qualified to participate in, they basically have a share.” Vice Admiral sighed.

“I’m afraid it has something to do with the Four Emperors…”

“Didn’t this guy with red hair only met Whitebeard some time ago? Did something happen again…”

“Who knows? Maybe it’s related to BigMom and Kaido. BigMom’s tea party should be ready to begin? A few days ago, there was information that a Beasts Pirates ship departed from Wanokuni to Totto Land, but Kaido himself did not go. ..”

“These guys… really can’t rest for a moment!”

“By the way, Mr. Garp…what the hell? I saw him in a bad mood…” A young Rear Admiral asked with a puzzled face to the senior Vice Admiral at the table.

“Hush!…Don’t ask more about this!!” Marine Vice Admiral glared at him quickly.

Several other Vice Admiral, who were a little older, also looked at him warningly.

“I…I know.” Rear Admiral’s face was a little pale, and he quickly replied.

——————

Garp was walking unhurriedly when the road to the conference hall was injured. Kake and Gion were one position behind him and behind him.Plus, the code-named “Tea Dolphin”, and Gion, the code-named “Momousagi”, both of them are Naval Headquarters Vice Admiral, but other than that, they are still “Admiral alternates.”

Admiral candidate and Admiral candidate, although the two do not sound very different.

But in fact, the two do not mean the same thing at all.

Candidates have to go through a series of selection tests, and the final ones are not necessarily selected.

All Vice Admiral, even any Marine soldier, can be a candidate.

As for the alternate Admiral, as long as there is a vacancy in Admiral, then they can directly go up, the entire huge Naval Headquarters, there are only these two.

The reason why they did not become Admiral is just because “Marine Admiral” can only have three people, not that they are not qualified.

Of course, the main reason for not being Admiral is because their strength is still a bit worse than the current three Admiral.

“Mr. Garp… I’m back this time, it seems that I have heard something terrible…”

Seeing no one on the road, Jia Ji couldn’t help but speak.

“Extras!…” Gion glared at Extras with some accusation.

“Hahaha… Did you know that when you came back? It seems that you can’t hide this thing anymore.” Garp shook his head and smiled bitterly.

Once this matter is known to most people, it will represent World government and Marine… to make the final decision!

Is it impel down for a lifetime…or is it executed in public?

Garp didn’t dare to think about it.

After all, neither of these is what he wants to see.

But… it can only be these two!

“Oh…” Garp couldn’t help sighing.

“I heard Dorothy say, you still have a grandson…seems to be a pirate too?” Jiaji said again.

“…” Gion reluctantly covered his forehead.

Her old partner, she really doesn’t have any vision, can’t he see how bad Garp feels?

The smile on Garp’s face is even more bitter, completely a mask of pain.

If he hadn’t personally pulled down his old face to rescue him some time ago, I’m afraid Luffy was already in Impel down.

What he worries about now is…if Luffy learns that Ace is imprisoned in Impel down, there is even the possibility of public execution…how desperate it will be.

“You guy, shut up quickly…” Gion twisted Jiaji’s ear.

However, her actions are completely redundant.

Because the conference hall is right in front of you.

The three Garp pushed in.

In the conference room, there are already five people sitting.

Marshal Sengoku, Admiral “Akainu” Sakazuki, “Kizaru” Polusalino, “Aokiji” Kuzan, and Vice Admiral and Chief Staff Crane.

Sengoku saw the three Garp and glared, “Asshole, didn’t I say that the situation is urgent? You can’t come here soon!? It took five minutes to get from the restaurant to the meeting room?”

Jia Ke gave a slightly awkward smile, while Gion lowered his head slightly.

They want to be fast too, but Garp is slow, what can they do?

As for Garp, he dug his nose and sat next to Tsuru, saying, “How urgent is it? Did Golden Lion come to Marineford again?”

“Huh.” Sengoku glared at Garp, but didn’t continue arguing with him.

He knows that Garp is in a bad mood recently, and as his old friend for many years, although he knows that the other party is uncomfortable,…he has no way at all.

After all, that was the blood of the man who had messed up the world, their biggest enemy before.

Sengoku glanced at everyone present, his expression gradually solemn, and said: “Following the contact between Redhead and Whitebeard some time ago, the other two, bigmom and Kaido are also ready to contact! The previous relationship between Quinn and Kaido under Kaido’s hand The call was overheard by us.”

“what?”

Kaji and Gion glanced at each other and realized the seriousness of the situation.

There was also a solemn expression on Garp’s face.

Although he is now troubled by Ace’s affairs, but… he is not only a grandfather, but also a Marine.

The “contact” between the Four Emperors… it’s not just a meeting.

What if… they are rushing to “join hands”?

Neither Marine nor World government want to see this happen.

They are not afraid of a single “Four Emperors”, but they want to annihilate one of the “Four Emperors” at a very high price.

It’s like the “War on Top” in the original book.

Although a single Four Emperors is not as strong as Marine plus Shichibukai, it is extremely difficult to destroy one of them. In the battle of the top, all Marine elites and obedient Shichibukai are gathered, home battles, traps are arranged, and pre-amplification is performed. Pacifists, in the end, they only eliminated the old Whitebeard and the taunted Ace. The captain of the Whitebeard Pirate Group and most of its forces are still there.

If the two Four Emperors joined forces before… they might still be able to deal with it, but the cost is absolutely unimaginable.

However, they deal with… does not mean that the other two Four Emperors can deal with it!

What if they join forces to annihilate the Whitebeard Pirates or the Red Hair Pirates?

The current world is balanced. Although the so-called balance of the three powers of the Grand Line is the balance between Marine, Shichibukai and Four Emperors, it is actually Marine + Shichibukai against the four Four Emperors, and the Four Emperors are hostile to each other, which is equivalent to five. The balance between these forces.

Balance is what the rulers of the highest want to see most.

Although there is still a World government above Marine’s headquarters, as Marine, I don’t want to be out of balance.

Even Kaido didn’t find bigmom to “join hands”, but to start a war.

When two emperors fight each other, the balance will also be broken, and the world will inevitably fall into chaos.

Once a “emperor” falls, the biggest beneficiary is definitely not them Marine.

Just like in the original book, after Whitebeard’s death, the world became more chaotic.

Other pirates will set off a new round of “grabbing turf.”

In the end, it is the people who are miserable! In addition, the revolutionary army has been ready to stir these years and has incited the people of many countries to resist. If a new round of “grabbing for territory” occurs, then this will definitely bring more instability to the world under the jurisdiction of the World government.

Of course, unlike the rulers of the World government, the original intention of the few people present to “maintain balance” was not for the convenience of rule.

Their purpose is, but to completely end the “big pirate age.”

Although it is easier to put an end to the “Great Pirate Age” by eliminating the Four Emperors one by one, this is unrealistic after all.

The Four Emperors are very strong, and their abilities are limited, there is no way to kill the Four Emperors all at once.

What they can do is to guard the door to the New World, isolate New World as much as possible, and eliminate the pirates who have not grown up in other seas, to prevent the pirates of New World from being supplemented, and make the era of pirates gradually disappear, slowly Weakening [onepiece] has an impact.

Over the years, the influence of [onepiece] has been weakened a lot. It is better to stop boiling from the bottom of the pot, and let [onepiece] become a “legend” is the ultimate force to solve this “big pirate age”.

Therefore, Marines want to maintain this “balance”!

There is no need to pay a huge price to fight the Four Emperors, but also to ensure the demise of the Pirate Age.

They must maintain this “balance”!

“Never let Kaido and bigmom come into contact!” Garp said solemnly, “These two guys are different from Redhead and Whitebeard… They might really join hands.”

He knows Kaido and bigmom very well.

After all, the two were crew members on Rocks back then, and unlike Whitebeard, their relationship was very close.”The question is… can you really stop him?” Sengoku had a headache. “Although this guy finally got out of Wanokuni’s ghost place that even warships can’t get in, this guy… is not so good to stop him. of.”

“It’s really troublesome now…” Suddenly, a face even more wretched than Jiaji lifted up. It was Kizaru. “Or, I’ll go there, Marshal Sengoku.”

“…” Sengoku looked at Kizaru in a little surprise, as if he didn’t expect him to say such a thing.

Others were also a little confused, even if it was Akainu casually smiling, they turned their heads to look at his colleague.

Unexpectedly, the one who is usually the laziest, unexpectedly volunteered today.

“Don’t look at me with that look, I just think there should be no one more suitable than me, right?”

“No… it’s too dangerous for you to go alone!” Sengoku shook his head.

“Huh? Is it possible that you still want to dispatch the two Admirals directly?” Kizaru’s originally half-squinted eyes opened slightly.

“No, I mean, you don’t go either.” Sengoku thought for a moment. “Garp, you take Kaji and Gion!”

“Old man?”

Garp frowned slightly.

Although it’s okay to let him take Kaji and Gion… but the best choice is definitely not this.

With their ability to fly in the air, they are actually not very good at dealing with Kaido who can fly high in the sky.

Sengoku was silent for a while before saying: “The instructions from the highest level have come down… Kaido, stop if you can stop it, forget it if you can’t stop it, after all, with Kaido’s flying ability… there is nowhere in the world for him to go. Nope, then you will stop the pirates who want to come here in New World by the way… this is also very good.”

“Is that so…” Garp lowered his head and said silently.

He already understood Sengoku’s intentions.

“When?” Garp’s voice trembled.

“Eight days from now… announcements and news… tomorrow will come out.”

“I know.” Garp nodded and got up from his seat.

“Plus, Gion!”

“exist!”

“Prepare the ship! Goal, all nations!”

“Yes!”

————————

A certain sea area in New World.

A ship with three scars on the Pirate Flag was docking on the shore.

However, there were no people on the boat, and they all went camping on the island.

“Boss! Boss!”

A young pirate jumped off the boat and ran all the way to find their captain.

“Reji, what’s the matter?” Shanks yawned, a little awake.

“Just got the news! Kaido, came out of Wanokuni!” the young pirate said with excitement.

“What? Is it finally out?” Shanks immediately woke up, “Where did he go!?”

“I don’t know yet, but the direction of their ship should be Totto Land, the site of bigmom. Didn’t their cadres Quin and Jack also arrive first? Kaido is probably going there too.” The young pirate analyzed.

“So…. Are we closer to Totto Land?”

“certainly!”

“Then go and stop him!”
