Pirates: Davy Jones is the captain of the Dread Ghost

Chapter 268 The red-haired blue pheasant Tenyaksha who is about to lose his composure

The silhouettes falling among the green branches moved slowly on the smooth white gravel, like snails.

"I knew that the Warring States Period would definitely use some tricks."

Shanks smiled slightly. He knew the naval marshal known as the "Wise General" very well, and they had too many interactions with each other.

"'Whitebeard' and 'Big Mom' both fell into the trap he instigated. Only 'The King of Hell' jumped out, and now it's 'Hundred Beasts'' turn."

Beckman held a cigarette in his mouth and stood with his back against the rough trunk of a coconut tree.

He nodded in agreement with the captain's statement: "'Big Buddha' Warring States is indeed a very insidious character."

"Shanks." Mihawk stroked the cross hanging around his neck with his fingers. It shone silver in the sunlight, "It is impossible for the 'New World' to return to the previous 'Yonko' situation. The balance has been broken. , what are you going to do?"

Shanks spread out the palm of his one arm with a rogue look on his face: "What else can I do? Just go with the flow and adapt to circumstances..."

The members of the red-haired pirates laughed helplessly.

"From before, I couldn't figure out what you were thinking." Mihawk shook his head.

"Say you have no ambition. In just a few years of knowing you, you have already become the 'Four Emperors'."

"Say you are ambitious, but you haven't taken much action. Instead, you have been trying your best to prevent the internal fighting among the crew members of the Rocks Pirates."

Shanks' eyes widened slightly in surprise: "You also know about the Rocks Pirates?"

"The more information about the blockade by the World Government and the Navy Headquarters is hidden from the light, the more clues can be found in the dark corners."

Mihawk paused and added: "I have also wanted to defeat 'Whitebeard', 'Beasts' and 'Big Mom' before, so I secretly investigated their past."

Shanks laughed again.

"Hahahaha... 'The less you see the light, the more clues you can find in the dark corners', Mihawk, you are right!"

Mihawk didn't understand what his joke was about, so he just continued to ask.

"Then what? Shanks, what exactly do you want to do, and when do you plan to take action?"

"Are you planning to hand over the position of 'One Piece' to Kaido or Davy Jones, or are you planning to sit back and watch the fight between tigers and finally profit from it?"

Shanks listened quietly, holding the handle of his sword "Griffin" with his palm, stroking its uneven texture, feeling a little anxious in his heart.

The situation was out of his control, and he didn't know what to do...

The future he envisioned was for Luffy to return from training two years from the end of last year, just in time to fulfill the 20-year promise of "Wano Country".

Luffy will defeat powerful enemies along the way, using the defeat of the strong and his own perseverance as nutrients to promote the "awakening of fruit abilities".

Without the "Yonko" and "Shichibukai" as stepping stones, can Luffy still awaken and become "Joy Boy"?

Shanks felt like he was about to lose his temper.

On an island near the Red Continent in the "New World", a water-powered windmill is slowly turning, drawing water, and the sound of water is gurgling.

"Green Pheasant" Kuzan sat on a low folding stool that he carried with him, wearing a gray knitted hat on his head.

The Admiral's robe of justice he was wearing had already been sent back to the headquarters, and he only wore a gray-green coat, covering his tall body.

Kuzan was now wearing round sunglasses, looking down at an ancient book, reading it very carefully, not missing any word, until the sound of footsteps came.

The person who came was the leader of the nearby underground black market. He recognized Kuzan's identity almost immediately. Without such discernment, he would not be worthy of sitting in the leader's position.

He looked behind Kuzan again, his face turned pale with fear.

Behind Kuzan, he saw a hill made of human heads. They all belonged to nearby pirates, bandits, gangsters, and killers.

Each of them stared blankly, their faces were distorted, and their hair was covered with a thin layer of frost.

"You...you..." The leader of the underground black market bent over in fear, not knowing why the former navy general summoned him.

He was afraid of becoming one of those people and wanted to run away, but he didn't dare because he knew that he was already within the attack range of the "Blue Pheasant".

"Relax." Kuzan raised his head, his fluffy curly hair shaking under his knitted hat.

"I need money...cash. Calculate the bounties for these people, give me a discount, and pay it to me as soon as possible." The leader of the underground black market swallowed, and then it dawned on him, but he still didn't understand. , a dignified former navy admiral, he should not be short of money, so why did he become a bounty hunter?

"How dare I give a discount? I'll give you double the discount, just wait." He quickly went to clean his head.

Kuzan caught a glimpse of him walking towards the hill with human heads, and then he lowered his head again and continued to read the ancient book, but his mind was already a little confused at this time.

He had read the ending of the "Charlotte Silent Battle" in the newspaper yesterday.

The fall of a terrible enemy of the Navy Headquarters should have been something to be happy about, if only it didn't feed the rise of another terrible enemy.

Kuzan has left the navy. He knows that he should no longer think about problems from the perspective of his headquarters, but to find his own direction.

For example, blending "Akainu's" path of justice with his own ideas.

"Akainu" died in battle, he was responsible, he owed it to "Akainu".

It is said that fire and water are incompatible, but Kuzan believes that it is just that he has not been able to find a point of balance.

But when he saw the content in the newspaper, he couldn't help but worry about the Navy Headquarters. He didn't know whether Marshal Sengoku and Lieutenant General Garp could handle the next situation.

He regretted more and more, he should not have fought with "Akainu". Even if he handed over the position of navy marshal to "Akainu", the situation would not be worse than the current situation.

However, now that the matter has come to this, there is no point in regretting.

Kuzan sighed. Suddenly, his eyes stopped on a passage in the ancient book. He read on, and finally a glimmer of hope appeared in his eyes.

This ancient book was a book about ancient legends that he had painstakingly found. It recorded characters that appeared in various mythological stories.

He saw a page about "Sun God - Joey Boy", but he was not interested and turned it over.

Soon after, he finally found content related to "The King of Hell in the Deep Sea - Davy Jones", but the first few pages were fruitless until he saw this paragraph.

"'Poseidon's Trident'..." Kuzan recited in a low voice, "It has the ability to lift all curses."

He remembered that Davy Jones owned a black trident that could change at will, and various intelligence confirmed this.

In other words, if I can get the trident of Davy Jones, can I lift the curse on Major General Tina and me?

However, whenever I get close to Davy Jones, I lose my mind and approach madness.

This is simply an unsolvable situation...

Kuzan turned his palm over and stared at the darkness in his palm, his eyes narrowed under his sunglasses.

Unless I can get someone else to help me get the trident and get it out of Davy Jones's grasp.

bang bang bang-

"Tenyasha" Doflamingo kicked over the basin, and the foot-washing water spread all over the soft and gorgeous carpet.

The maid hurried forward in a hurry, tidied up in a panic and without making a sound, and then hurried away with a basin in her hands.

Sitting on the fourth chair not far away were three people. They all moved nervously and licked their lips.

They are the three top cadres of the Don Quixote family, namely "Club" Torebol, "Spade" Pica, and "Diamond" Diamanti.

Doflamingo's loud curses came from the dark office. He had not been so out of control for a long time.

"Charlotte Lingling is simply an idiot!" Doflamingo rarely smiled playfully, and his eyes were filled with anger under his sunglasses. "She wasted all my support regardless of the cost!"

When he heard after the war that "Big Mom" ​​would rather load an entire ship's worth of desserts than wear more of the weapons and ammunition he provided, especially "gas bombs," he gritted his teeth with hatred.

Now it's all done Davy Jones!

"Young master, please calm down." Torebol's nose was running and he looked slovenly. "Now we can also get some of 'Auntie's' inheritance, so we can make up for it."

However, another top cadre raised objections. This time it was "Spade" Pika who spoke. His voice was high-pitched and thin, completely inconsistent with his rugged appearance.

"Torebol, we still suffered a loss. The death of 'Red Heart' Vergo, 'Snow Lady' Monet, and 'Evil Scientist' Caesar Coulant dealt a heavy blow to our family."

"We are no longer able to supply Kaido with more iterations of 'artificial devil fruits'. The ones currently produced in the factory are still the original ones..."
