From a Pirate to a Revolutionary Mentor

Chapter 152: Plotting against the Navy
In the Great Pirate Era, the balance between the navy and pirates is slowly tilting, and the World Government only cares about the balance.

They did not consider what kind of impact the legal plundering rights of the Seven Warlords of the Sea would bring, and how many ordinary people's lives would be lost as a result of their unscrupulous behavior.

However, the proposal and formation of the Seven Warlords of the Sea system was a humiliation for the navy.

And Kevin knew very well that this was just a proposal of the system. Once it was implemented, those pirates would plunder in front of the navy, and that kind of powerlessness would be truly humiliating.

The navy silently accepted the system of the Seven Warlords of the Sea in their memories. Even though Zephyr was angry and most of the navy could not agree with it, it was of no avail.

Of course, today's farce is still of no help, but because of this farce, every time in the future when there is a problem concerning the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the navy will remember Kevin's struggle today.

Moreover, this tiny seed has been planted, and high-ranking naval officials such as Zhan Guo have fertilized and watered it. When it grows up in the future, Kevin's true intention will be revealed.

Kevin looked at the Navy Headquarters outside the ward window...

The navy of this world is one of the mainstream forces, and its strength and quality are uneven.

There is Colonel Rat from the future East China Sea branch, and there are the remnants of the past G5 branch in the New World, but there are also truly good navy members like T Benn.

This part will also be a force that can be united in the future, as long as we wait for the seeds to sprout and wait for the time to start.

Ever since Kuzan guessed his identity as a revolutionary, Kevin's subsequent plans have focused more on his own position.

After all, some things do not require evidence, only guesses are enough.

The wise generals Sengoku and Tsuru might know his purpose of trying to go further, but they would never have thought that he was trying to pull the entire navy into the revolution.

"Dong dong dong."

"Please come in."

There was a knock on the ward door, and then Kevin saw a guy he hadn't seen for a long time.

"I thought my two subordinates would come first, but it turned out to be you. What? You've been transferred to the headquarters now?"

Kevin smiled as he looked at Nomi who had walked in. "You've been in the town of Rasgap in the West Sea for quite a long time, so I think I should give you a promotion anyway."

Nomi found a stool and sat down with empty hands: "Because I guessed that you were probably not injured, so I didn't bring anything. I guessed right, right?"

Kevin didn't answer his question, but instead started asking about the situation in West Hellas Gap.

Thanks to Kevin's sweep of the entire West Sea before he left, the rise of pirates has recovered somewhat in recent years, but in comparison, it is only slightly more chaotic than the East Sea and is regarded as the second weakest sea area by pirates.

Half an hour had passed since the two of them chatted about the West Sea. Kevin suddenly asked, "Has your domineering aura...recovered?"

Nomi looked up and met Kevin's eyes. After thinking for a moment, he replied, "The will that I persisted in the past has found a new direction, so it will naturally recover."

"But I'm still not as good as you. You're already a vice admiral of the headquarters, and you've been stationed at the front line of the New World for many years. You're already an amazing navy."

Will the past will be restored?

Kevin was thoughtful and was about to say something when there was another knock on the ward door.

"It seems that I may have disturbed your reunion."

Crane looked at the two people in front of him, and finally said to Nomi: "You can find your own will in the past. It seems that there are not many pirates pouring into the Grand Line in the West Sea in recent years, thanks to Colonel Nomi."

Because it was a crane, Nomi quickly stood up and saluted.

"Lieutenant General."

Crane nodded, but said nothing more.

Nomi understood the situation and immediately said hello to Kevin and said goodbye and prepared to leave.

Kevin also knew that He had something to say, so he didn't stop him.

He had some guesses about his old boss's rediscovery of his lost persistence, and he just had to wait and confirm it later.

"Lieutenant General Tsuru...is there something wrong?"

After the door of the ward was closed for a while, He spoke up: "After this incident is over, you can ask the World Government to propose that you be promoted to Admiral Candidate, and the Navy can approve it."

Kevin's face was immediately filled with smiles: "It seems that this time, being hit by Sakaski was not in vain."

Crane looked at him and said, "Being blown away by Sakaski's lava must have been intentional, right? As for the harvest, it's not just this."

"This time, the navy will protest against the Shichibukai system without leaving any documents and will disperse it to all naval branches around the world."

"Your past reputation in the Navy Headquarters will be completely reversed, and even the navy of the Four Seas Branch will know about your deeds and reputation. These are the right goals, right? Vice Admiral Kevin."

Facing the question, Kevin spread out his bandaged hands and said, "I never thought I could hide it from Vice Admiral Tsuru, the chief of staff of the headquarters. Even Marshal Sengoku should have thought of it, right? But Vice Admiral Tsuru, you and I both know that the system of the Seven Warlords of the Sea is a foregone conclusion."

"So what we have achieved now is already our limit. The Navy will not be held responsible for the decisions made by the World Government."

"And with this kind of experience, the new generation of navy should train harder, right? The word weak is a bottom line word for men."

After he finished speaking, He kept looking at Kevin, but in the end he found nothing.

Kevin also looked at him.

What Nomi said just now was beyond Kevin's expectations, and this unexpected thing was also heard by the lieutenant general of staff who was always known as a wise man.

Colonel Nomi and Kuzan were in the same youth training camp. Logically speaking, Kuzan at that time was not lazy, and anyone who could gain his recognition must be a genius of some size.

Such a genius was exiled to the West Sea, and even his spiritual will was gradually lost. So what Nomi insisted on in the past is worth pondering.

"Lieutenant General Kevin."

He stood up and looked down at Kevin who was lying on the bed: "The Navy recognizes the cooperation with you last time in Wano Country, and believes that this cooperation can continue. But the premise is that you stand with the Navy."

Hearing this, Kevin rubbed his brows.

"Vice Admiral Tsuru, my stand is for my own justice. Regardless of the navy or the world government, all I want is to destroy the pirates."

Kevin seemed to have revealed his true feelings: "I heard that you, Marshal Sengoku, Vice Admiral Garp, and Mr. Zephyr all joined the navy at the same time. So over the years, you must have seen many villages and towns being massacred and looted by pirates."

"I've seen a lot. The West Sea, the Grand Route, I've seen so much over the years. The entire coastline was littered with corpses, young children were disemboweled, and at that time I even thought that child was me."

"So... my justice has always been to kill all the pirates on this sea!"

After the words were spoken, there was silence in the ward.

After a while, there was a noisy sound outside the ward. He knew that the test could not continue, so he got up and walked towards the door.

"We will do as you wish this time, but the top three generals have been basically determined, and the highest level can only be the candidate general."

Kevin smiled and replied, "I am already very satisfied. After all, those three monsters are much stronger than me. Lieutenant General Sakaski's punch was quite painful."

The door of the ward was opened, and the noisy people outside quieted down the moment they saw Vice Admiral He.

"Tsuru... Lieutenant General Tsuru."

Smoker's cigar almost fell out of his mouth. He didn't expect that Vice Admiral Tsuru would also come to visit the boss.

However, Or, Diruda and Tina on the side quickly saluted.

"Don't smoke in the ward."

Crane glanced at Smoker, then looked at Tina: "Come with me Tina."

As he said that, he led Tina out. Smoker quickly put out his cigar, looked at the figure walking away and asked, "Although I already know that the boss will be fine, but Lieutenant General Tsuru came to visit in person. The boss is quite honored."

Or thought for a moment and said nothing, then walked straight into the open ward door.

As a classmate in the youth training camp, Kevin chatted with the two of them for a long time.

In fact, Kevin felt that the two people in front of him were almost dead. After all, their fruit abilities were the abilities of different people in his memory.

A new devil fruit will only be born randomly when the previous owner of the fruit dies.

Compared to the Spring Fruit, the additional ability of Kevin's Swamp Fruit is more in line with the needs, so perhaps it can be transferred to the G5 branch.

……

Meanwhile, Tina had followed Crane to her staff office.

He sat in the recliner and looked at Tina: "You have always been very smart, so you should also know what Admiral Kevin's purpose is this time, right?"

Tina nodded and then repeated her guess.

Crane then asked, "What about Tina? What does Tina think of the World Government?"

As soon as the words fell, Tina's heart suddenly tightened.

Sure enough, Vice Admiral Tsuru, who has always been very busy, would not have nothing better to do than to find me to talk.

Does this mean you no longer trust yourself?
After thinking for a moment, Tina replied: "We can't do anything about the World Government's decision, right? But the existence of the World Government brings stability to this ocean. As long as all the pirates are eliminated, the world will definitely be a better place." Crane kept looking at Tina.

"What's wrong? Vice Admiral Tsuru."

"No."

He shook his head slightly: "You can go back now. Kevin is your direct supervisor now. It is not good to leave in the middle of a visit."

After saying that, He lowered his head and started processing documents, ignoring Tina.

After saluting and leaving, Tina also understood what Vice Admiral He meant.

The distrust has been sown and cannot be reversed. She will now only be a colonel in the G5 branch, and her superior will only be the Lieutenant General, and there will no longer be a crane.

……

After Tina left, He stopped writing and drawing the moment the door closed.

Squinting his eyes slightly, he let the information he had learned from the hospital run through his mind, trying to sort out his thoughts.

She knew very well what Nomi's firm will was in the past, and she knew even more clearly the meaning of the words she heard.

I found another way to fulfill my will in the past. The will I had in the past was the courage to stand up when facing the Celestial Dragons.

If there was no world government, Nomi would be a good navy.

But now, it seems that his only other option is to be the opponent of the World Government.

And what gave him such great confidence? He was even able to regain his past strength and dominance?

The answer is self-evident.

What about Kevin? This navy officer was recognized by Nomi during the West Sea period.

The previous test was normal, and Tina's reaction was equally normal.

……

An hour later, Kevin left a shadow clone in the hospital ward, and his real body appeared directly in the Shimotsuki Village Dojo in the East China Sea.

Under the Flying Thunder God Kunai hanging in the room, Kevin did not rush out, but took out the Den Den Mushi that was eating leaves from the drawer.

"Bulu Bulu..."

Soon the Den Den Mushi was picked up, and Kevin asked directly, "Jasmine, in the West Sea, you have developed the naval base commander in Ras Gap Town, right?"

The Den Den Mushi imitated a rough man, but the voice it made was somewhat feminine.

"Sir, please wait for me to check first, it will be quick. The commander of the naval base in Ras Gap Town..."

The giant Jasmine, who had been mumbling to herself, replied after searching for a long time: "Yes, sir. Bartelnom, the base commander of the Rasgap Town Navy Branch, has liberated his mind."

Kevin felt a little pain on his forehead after hearing this, but he couldn't blame Jasmine and the others.

After all, apart from Dragon, Ginny, and Uncle Bear, no other revolutionary army knew about his other alias.

And it is impossible to report every detail of the strategy of hidden development to Baldigo, which led to today's coincidence.

After hanging up the phone, Kevin's eyes narrowed slightly.

So was it a test? If I got nervous at that time, I might be exposed.

Thinking of this, Kevin took out another Den Den Mushi from the drawer and dialed.

"gentlemen."

"The commander of the navy base in the town of Rasgap in the West Sea has developed into a revolutionary army. But now he is likely to be targeted. So I need the headquarters to let nature take its course and let him leave the headquarters and return to the West Sea."

The Dragon that Den Den Mushi imitated was stunned.

Rath Gap?
So this Bartelnomi was sir's boss when he was in the West Sea?

This will indeed draw suspicion onto you, sir.

"Understood, I'll follow right away."

"Yes. After Bartelnomí returned to the West Sea, they would not pay attention to me, a small branch base chief."

……

After the communication, as it was already evening, Kevin went straight back to the hospital at the Naval Headquarters.

So sometimes we really can't underestimate the vigilance of these people, especially He and Zhan Guo.

One of them is a staff officer of the Navy Headquarters, and the other has always been praised as a wise general. Both are smart people, and they will probably guess something in a flash of inspiration.

The navy's layout has already begun, and if it is discovered at this time, it will be more trouble than gain.

Soon, night falls.

However, a huge figure, more than two meters tall when squatting, was squatting in front of the window of the ward and suddenly jumped down.

"It seems that my guess was right. It's not that easy for a guy like you to get hurt. How come Sakaski didn't realize that you did it on purpose?"

Kevin glanced at Kuzan and said, "You can go through the main entrance to visit the patient. You squatting like this in the middle of the night, anyone with a little courage will be scared to death by you."

"Sakaski doesn't really want to kill me. He is also one of the people who are dissatisfied with the Shichibukai system. Anyone in the navy will hate this system."

"After I convinced and defeated the flying squirrel, I fought him for so long. I had already admitted defeat, and there was no way he could rush up and continue."

Kuzan nodded: "That makes sense. But you are going back to the headquarters this time, how about we sail together tomorrow and take me home to have a look?"

Kevin replied casually, "Maybe next time. After all, if you recover so soon after being injured, people will criticize you. The fame you just gained cannot be reversed."

Next time again?

Ku Zan sighed and said, “There have been many next times, okay?”

However, the current situation is indeed not appropriate.

"Oh right. If there is a way, get your good friend from the same period back to Rasgap Town as soon as possible. He joined the revolutionary army, but something he said here before must have made Crane suspicious."

Kuzan was stunned for a moment, then he laughed.

When he went to the West Sea a few years ago, he had some suspicions about that bastard Nomi, and he didn't expect it to be true.

but……

He immediately thought of the whole process of his past guessing of Kevin's identity. If it was any of the He staff officers, Kevin would be in danger.

"Are you okay here?"

Kevin replied: "It shouldn't be a big problem. The navy is the navy, their stance is different from the World Government, and they will be more cautious with me than Nomi, the base commander of the West Sea."

Kuzan nodded and said, "I understand. I will go find him tomorrow. It won't be a problem to borrow the name of a friend of the same period."

After all, it is not normal for a person to pretend to be injured and ignore the possibility that his fake injury will be discovered in order to meet his former boss in Xihai.

"I have already notified my family, and they should find a way to notify him tomorrow. You need to give him a reasonable opportunity to leave."

Kevin paused for a moment, then continued, "Perhaps we can use his past as a breakthrough point. After all, there are people from the World Government in Marinford."

……

Soon, the next day, something big happened again in Marinford.

As a friend and colleague, Kuzan came to Nomi, and the two seemed to have a big fight over something.

During this time, a voice came from the accommodation room, and it seemed that it was because of something that happened a long time ago, and the word "Celestial Dragon" appeared.

In the end, Colonel Nomi left the headquarters in anger and returned to the town of Lasgap in the West Sea.

After hesitating for two days, He stopped looking at Kevin after Nomi left.

There is no need to worry too much about the head of a branch base in the West Sea, even if he is really a member of the Revolutionary Army, and the positions of the Revolutionary Army and their navy are sometimes not contradictory.

Moreover, Bartelnomí was acquainted with Zefa, and was once Lieutenant General Kevin's boss and a colleague of Kuzan... His network of contacts was quite extensive.

So He finally did not directly put forward her guess. There were many things that needed to be done, and she was a little too busy at the moment.
