Chapter 577 Return to the Holy Land!
Even in the New Navy's territory, Red-Haired Shanks remained calm and composed.
His demands and goals are different from those of the New Navy. Under the leadership of Zephyr, the New Navy hopes to inherit the will of Tsugakuni Yoriichi. Everything they do is to overthrow the rule of the Celestial Dragons.
However, there is indeed a huge gap between facts and reality. Without the new navy led by Ji Guoyuan, there is no way to suppress these powerful countries in the new world.
Although the development of the new navy seems to be good in recent years, in fact they are restricted everywhere and are deeply trapped in the quagmire of the new world.
At this moment, Shanks can even see clearly the future of the New Navy. When Zephyr and Issho's generation grow old, once the New Navy has no successors, this huge force will probably be completely overturned in just a few decades.
However, problems like this will never occur to the World Government and the Navy Headquarters.
Shanks' understanding of the Celestial Dragons is even better than that of Zephyr and others.
Throughout the long years of history, why have the Celestial Dragons been able to maintain their status and suppress countless powerful people who have tried to rebel against them? The biggest reason is because the person who leads the Celestial Dragons has never changed.
And it is this person hiding behind the Celestial Dragons who is one of the reasons why the World Government has always been strong.
Shanks once naively believed that a man like Yoriichi Tsugakuni would definitely bring great changes to the world.
But the ending still disappointed him.
It was precisely because of the death of Yoshiichi Tsugakuni that Shanks made up his mind. If the destined person had not appeared, he would continue to be active in this world as a pirate and would never show any intention of resistance.
When the destined person appears, he will come forward to help.
Although Shanks and Buggy did not board Raftel with Pirate King Roger, due to Shanks' special background, Shanks had given Roger some instructions before his death.
When Shanks thought of the innocent kid to whom he gave the straw hat, his eyes were filled with anticipation.
"The territory captured by your Red Hair Pirates is under your control."
"Red-Haired Shanks, is this all you want?"
Zefa has a slicked-back hair and wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. His gentle appearance matches his burly figure inexplicably, and he exudes the temperament of a refined and wise general.
He spoke in a calm tone, neither hurried nor slow, and there was an inexplicable power in his words.
Shanks was in a trance for a short time before hearing what Zephyr said. He also looked at the people opposite him, shook his head slightly, and said with a smile:
"Haha, of course it's not just that."
"It is only natural that the territory we have captured should be controlled by us, the Red Hair Pirates."
"If you want to cooperate with our Red Hair Pirates, you new navy will naturally have to pay other prices."
"We say cooperation, but I think both of us understand that it is your new navy that needs our help."
"How can you ask someone to do something for you without paying any price?"
Although Shanks has a free and easy personality, he made his position clear when he represented the Red Hair Pirates in negotiations with the New Navy.
Although his Red Hair Pirates is an elite pirate group, it does not mean that his power is limited to the crew of that ship.
Many forces in this new world, such as the giant Erubaf, have sided with the Red Hair Pirates, hoping to get their protection.
Shanks always welcomes those "weak" forces that come to him hoping to get his protection, so much of the wealth that the Red Hair Pirates have gained through robbing other pirates has even been given back to some of the small countries under their control.
Their Red Hair Pirates are clearly one of the Four Emperors at the top of the New World, but the crew members on their ship are all dressed simply. It would be difficult for others to imagine that such plain people are actually one of the Four Emperors.
If there is a chance to cooperate with the new navy and make a fortune from it, Shanks will definitely not miss such an opportunity.
Unlike the forces and countries controlled by his Red Hair Pirates, the New Navy is also building the economy as much as possible in order to support their huge army.
Desolo, under the name of "Golden Emperor", made money crazily. Except for the money he earned for his own needs, he basically used the rest to subsidize the new navy headquarters.
It is precisely because of Desolo's terrifying ability to make money that the new navy can develop smoothly.
The boss Zefa naturally knew that the money of the new navy was hard-earned. When he heard what Shanks said, he narrowed his eyes slightly and waited for Shanks' next words.
To the outside world, Shanks has always been a relatively mysterious person, and no one knows what their Red Hair Pirates are pursuing.
Zephyr is naturally no exception. He and Shanks did not have any in-depth contact and did not know what kind of person the other party was. Therefore, he was always very vigilant when negotiating with the other party.
Shanks paused for a moment, and suddenly a look of nostalgia flashed in his eyes:
"Come to think of it, I used to have a friendship with Yunyi."
"I admire him very much. I even looked up to him at one point."
"I once thought that he gave birth to someone who could change the world. Back in the East China Sea, I even thought about helping him find a certain devil fruit."
"Haha. I didn't expect it. It's fate that plays tricks on me."
"Even men like him are dead."
A look of regret appeared on Shanks' face. When they heard him mention Yoriichi Tsugakuni, the faces of several members of the New Navy turned ugly.
The death of Yoriichi Tsugakuni was an unspeakable pain for the new naval leaders.
The looks that several senior executives gave Shanks became somewhat dangerous. They didn't like anyone talking about Yoriichi Tsugakuni in front of them, especially when the other party was a pirate.
"I know much more than you think."
"I even know as much about Tsugikoku Yoriichi as you do."
"Although my goals are different from your new navy's, they are not in conflict in general."
"I just want to ask one thing!"
"How did Tsugikoku Yoriichi kill the Five Elders?"
"Kill. Izambaron V. Nasujuro-sei!"
The people present were either the top brass of the New Navy or the core members of the Red Hair Pirates themselves.
There are some things Shanks doesn't need to hide from these people.
After hearing Shanks' direct question, the people present had different expressions. Some people in the Red Hair Pirates had never heard of the Five Elders, so they naturally didn't know the name Shanks mentioned.
The faces of several high-ranking officers of the New Navy also changed slightly. After looking at each other, their gazes towards Shanks became unusually solemn.
The existence of the Five Elder Stars is not a secret in the new navy, but those who know this name are basically generals with the rank of lieutenant general or above.
This is because their naval system is related to the World Government system. Apart from people in their system, there should be no way for anyone to obtain information about the Five Elder Stars.
Especially. Shanks actually knew the specific names of the Five Elders, and even knew that Izambaron V. Nasujuro was killed by Tsugikoku Enishi. The people present in the battle on the Island of Beginning were either high-ranking officials of the World Government or high-ranking officials of the New Navy.
It is impossible for the other five elders who escaped and survived to publicize the fact that the highest authority died in battle after returning, right? !
Just as Shanks said, he knew much more than Zephyr and the others imagined.
"."
At this moment, several members of the New Navy fell into silence, and everyone was thinking about the background and intention behind Shanks' words.
Could the news of the Five Elders’ death in battle have leaked from their new navy?
If it didn't come from their new navy, then it must have come from the mouths of the surviving Five Elders themselves.
Then Shanks' identity and position are worth pondering.
Zefa stared at the young man across the conference table, his hands clasped across his chest, and he felt very defensive.
After a brief thought, he spoke decisively:
"I don't know what you're talking about, Red-Haired Shanks."
"We, the new navy, can accept your previous conditions. The islands captured by your Red Hair Pirates can be controlled by your Red Hair Pirates."
"If you are willing to cooperate on this, then we can reach a cooperation intention."
“As for the rest”
"If you, the Red Hair Pirates, have other ideas, I'm sorry we can't continue to cooperate with you."
Having said that, Zefa stood up from his seat, turned around and walked towards the door of the conference room.
Just as Zephyr opened the door and was about to leave, Shanks also stood up suddenly:
"Mr. Zefa, do you really not know or are you unwilling to tell me?!"
"It's just a piece of information. Do you need to hold it in your hands?"
"Or do you not trust me?"
"If we can't even establish the most basic trust, then is there any point in the so-called cooperation?"
There was a certain amount of coercion in Shanks' words, but unfortunately, he chose the wrong person to threaten.
Zephyr turned slightly, glanced at Shanks without saying anything, then pushed the door and left.
Shanks wanted to continue speaking, but Mihawk, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stood in front of Shanks:
"trust."
“The weak need so-called trust when they seek partners.”
“We don’t trust our partners unconditionally, and similarly, we never ask our partners to trust us unconditionally.”
“The basis of cooperation is strength, not so-called trust!”
The senior leaders of the new navy did not stay in this conference room for long. Aokiji and Issho followed Zephyr out one after another. After leaving these two sentences, Mihawk also left the conference room and disappeared from Shanks' sight.
Negotiations broke down
Shanks could tell from the attitude of the new navy's top brass that the new navy seemed to have no intention of continuing to cooperate with their Red Hair Pirates.
"What? These guys from the new navy are so crazy! They were the ones who were looking for our cooperation."
Jesus was somewhat dissatisfied with the attitude of the new navy's top brass, and his tone was full of complaints.
His words were obviously recognized by everyone, and Laqi Lu and others also echoed him, obviously unwilling to stay here and look at the face of the new navy.
Deputy Captain Beckman was much calmer, or perhaps he knew more than the ordinary crew members.
Seeing the senior officers of the new navy leave, he approached Shanks and said with a smile:
"Shanks, you're still a little too impatient."
"I just said let's take it step by step. Without a basis for cooperation, rashly asking such questions will inevitably arouse suspicion."
"What do we do next?"
Hearing Beckman's slightly teasing words, Shanks suddenly burst into laughter after a brief silence.
"Hahahahaha!"
"This is truly a bad idea!"
"Well~ there's nothing we can do about it. If that's the case, let's try to cooperate first."
"We have to take those islands eventually. We have to control the route to Raftelu!"
Shanks said to the crew members nonchalantly, and seeing his nonchalant look, the crew members burst into laughter.
The cheerful and open-minded Shanks has always been their backbone. If the captain doesn't mind something, they will mind it even less.
When the negotiations between the New Navy and the Red Hair Pirates "broke down", Yoriichi Tsugakuni and Oliva, who set sail from Pluto, were also "drifting" on the sea.
The sailing life was not boring for them. During this period of time, the two of them went fishing and chatting, and their understanding of each other became deeper.
As time passed, the small boat they were riding on was getting closer and closer to the holy land of Marinchoa.
After sailing for nearly half a month, the Red Earth Continent appeared in the sight of the two.
The weather at sea was not good that day. The morning fog was thick and the red earth continent in the distance was looming in the fog and could not be seen clearly.
Standing on the deck, Jiguo Yuanyi looked at the recording pointer in his hand slightly rising up towards the sky, and he understood that they were finally reaching their destination.
During this journey, Tsugikuni Yoriichi's food and accommodation were all on the boat. The limited times when they stopped by the island to replenish supplies were also handled by Oliva. Yoriichi never showed up.
Now, I can finally add some different experiences to my ordinary life.
"Oliva, after I leave, you don't have to wait here, go directly to the Sabaody Archipelago."
"After I leave the holy land, I will contact you using Den Den Mushi."
It was obvious that Jiguo Yuanyi and Oliva had already made a plan. Hearing this, Oliva smiled and nodded: "Don't worry."
As he spoke, Ji Guoyuan's figure turned into a golden stream of light and shot directly towards the direction of the Red Earth Continent. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from Oliva's sight.
Looking at the golden light disappearing from his sight, Oliva bowed slightly in the direction of Tsugikoku Yoshiichi and whispered a blessing:
"I wish you good luck in martial arts."
