Pirate: Nami! Give me back my Berry!

The eruption of the Sky Stream did not last too long, and it stopped after only a few minutes.

However, after this short pause, the rain curtain that had disappeared in the morning came again, and this time the rainfall was obviously heavier than before.

The sea surface slowly returned to calm.

The sound of rain coming from afar seemed to constantly remind people to appreciate this magical landscape.

"This... is really amazing... It's exactly the same as the 'Rain of Grace' in our Furry Principality..." Reina widened her eyes, her heart full of shock.

The eruption of the Sky Stream she just witnessed reminded her of the 'Rain of Grace' that the Zou Giant Elephant would spray twice a day, but compared with the Sky Stream, the 'Rain of Grace' was much smaller in scale.

"It's really amazing!" Nokigo also agreed deeply.

"It seems that the New World is really full of strange and mysterious natural scenes. I heard that there are even oceans that look like cross-sections in some places. I really want to go and see them myself!" Nami's beautiful eyes flashed with a firm light, full of desire to explore.

"Ling Yan, look over there, warships!" Hogg suddenly pointed to the left side of the rain curtain and shouted loudly.

Everyone's eyes immediately looked in the direction Hogg pointed, and saw three huge navy warships passing through the rain curtain and slowly heading towards them.

"It's Aokiji, what is this guy doing here?" Kuina frowned slightly and asked in confusion.

Others also showed a thoughtful look, secretly speculating on the purpose of Aokiji's trip.

Since they took Daxiong away from the Navy Headquarters, Sengoku ordered the revocation of Ling Yan's naval status, so now their dream expedition team no longer has the identity of a navy, but has become a pure adventure group.

"Ling Yan, has there been no intelligence about the navy recently?" Nojigao turned his head to look at Ling Yan and asked.

"We just came from Fishman Island, and the information bird has not had time to send the information. However, Aokiji's appearance here should not be to cause trouble for us." Ling Yan replied after thinking for a moment.

Everyone fell into silence, quietly waiting for the three navy warships to approach.

As the distance got closer and closer, they finally saw the flags flying on the warships and the eye-catching navy logo on the hull.

This is indeed the fleet led by Aokiji, and their arrival made the whole scene tense and full of expectations.

"Ala La~~~"

"Ling Yan, it seems that you are not surprised at all by the arrival of our navy..." Approaching the island, Aokiji walked to the bow of the warship and looked at Ling Yan, and then glanced at the Dream Group.

"Indeed, there is no, but I am still a little curious about why you came to us?" Ling Yan frowned and asked calmly.

Aokiji didn't answer immediately. He looked at the Dream Group again. He felt that compared with the past, the Dream Group seemed to be more relaxed and casual now.

But thinking back, he felt that the Dream Group had always been like this...

"Yesterday, more than a dozen pirate groups were waiting for you at the entrance to Punk Hazard in the New World, but they didn't expect that you actually came here first." Aokiji didn't answer Ling Yan's question, but just said casually.

"Waiting for us?" Ling Yan was a little confused.

"Well... it's the admirers of your Dream Expedition Group. It seems that they got the exact time of your arrival in the New World, and then they waited for you there specifically, hoping to join your Dream Expedition Group.

But they left before you appeared, and seemed to want to change places to continue waiting for your news." Aokiji said slowly.

Hearing this, the members of the Dream Group looked at each other in silence.

Shanks had already told them about the fact that there were many people who wanted to follow their Dream Expedition Group in the New World when they were in the Sabaody Archipelago.

But no one expected that these people would actually block the entrance to the New World and wait for them.

"That's not right, Aokiji, you are a navy. You didn't take action against more than a dozen pirate groups, but let them leave?" Hogg felt very confused.

Others also felt very strange. Aokiji, as a navy admiral, didn't choose to take action against more than a dozen pirate groups?

"Ling Yan, I have something to talk to you alone." Aokiji ignored Hogg's question and directly looked at Ling Yan. His originally lazy eyes revealed a hint of seriousness at this moment.

Seeing this scene, everyone in the Dream Group felt very strange.

"Let's go to the island." Ling Yan answered without hesitation, and then he quickly got off the ship and walked towards the dilapidated town.

Seeing this, Aokiji also jumped off the warship.

On the three warships, two major generals and some officersGathered together, discussing in a low voice, but they still couldn't understand Admiral Aokiji's intention at this time.

The people of the Dream Group looked at each other, and finally chose to remain silent. They felt very strange in their hearts. Aokiji's behavior today was very strange.

Ling Yan came to a relatively complete house and jumped onto the roof lightly. Aokiji followed closely and quickly followed.

"Admiral Aokiji, your behavior today is very strange. This is not the image of a navy admiral." Ling Yan said casually while sitting on the fence.

Aokiji took a deep look at Ling Yan, and then said: "Marshal Zhan Guo is going to retire. Regarding the next marshal of the navy, he recommended me to Marshal Kong."

Hearing this, Ling Yan raised his eyebrows.

Is it finally coming?

"Akainu must not want to see you sit in the position of the navy marshal?" Ling Yan asked casually.

Aokiji nodded and said calmly: "You are right. Sakaski has always been eyeing the position of the Navy Admiral. He believes that he has enough strength and experience to lead the Navy.

And my existence has undoubtedly become his biggest competitor."

Ling Yan smiled and didn't seem to care about these things.

Aokiji took a deep breath and said slowly: "Originally, I had no intention of the position of Navy Admiral, but now Marshal Sengoku is going to retire, and Sakaski wants to take that position. This is what I don't want to see. His justice is too extreme.

I can't let someone like him take control of the Navy."

Ling Yan nodded to show his understanding.

He knew that Aokiji and Akainu had completely different ideas about justice.

The conflict between the two is not only a conflict of personal interests, but also a disagreement on the definition of justice.

Aokiji looked into the distance and said with a firm look: "So, we decided to have a duel, and the winner will be the next Admiral of the Navy!"

"Uh..."

"But these have nothing to do with us, Admiral Aokiji." Ling Yan spread his hands and said casually.

"I want to ask you, what is your definition of justice?" Aokiji has wanted to ask this question for a long time.

Ling Yan frowned. He didn't expect Aokiji to ask him this question. "To be honest, I don't have any specific definition of justice, because justice is not something that can be said.

Only when knowledge and action are unified can there be true knowledge.

If I have to say it, I am just more idealistic. As long as I think it is right, it is my justice."

"Knowledge and action are unified..." Aokiji murmured.
