Shampoo is in fifth gear, and Kizaru is numb

"The last one in the threat ranking is the Straw Hat Pirates."

Branniu pointed to the information of the last remnants of the Straw Hat Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates.

Everyone present was very clear about this information.

After all, the bounty of the Straw Hat Pirates was spread all over the world after the war at the top, and there was no excessive adjustment.

"In addition to these three powerful new pirate alliances, there is another important piece of information, that is, the Revolutionary Army has recently secretly summoned four legion commanders. They are shrinking their forces, and I don't know what major actions they will take."

"The Revolutionary Army?"

Tsuru's eyes narrowed, and he sighed,"They are also a group of troublesome guys."

Moreover,

Tsuru couldn't help but focus his eyes on Garp.

Not only Tsuru, but also Zephyr and Sengoku.

Others may not know, but the three of Garp's old comrades know very well that the leader of the Revolutionary Army, whose full name is Monkey D. Dragon, is Garp's biological son.

A son and a grandson, who are now making the New World and the first half of the Grand Line a mess.

Garp is also a high-ranking naval hero.

This family is really weird, with all three major forces of the navy, pirates, and the revolutionary army.

"We don't need to worry about the Revolutionary Army. The CP organization above will draw forces to fight against the Revolutionary Army. However, if you encounter the Revolutionary Army while performing a mission, you must report to the government immediately."

Branniu explained

"Then, my intelligence reporting work is over."

Branniu said respectfully to Zhan Guo

"Thank you for your hard work."

After Branny went down, Zhan Guo paused for a moment, then said in a low voice

"I believe that everyone here has a concrete understanding of the degree of crisis in the current ocean situation. It is no exaggeration to say that the current ocean, especially the New World, is completely out of our control."

"The pirates are too powerful. With our current navy, we are simply unable to resist them. Therefore, we have launched a world-wide conscription. What we need most now is power, not development in accordance with the rules."

"I suggest that Yixiao and Huangmu, who came from the World Recruitment, be directly awarded the rank of general. Their strength has been tested by me and Garp, and in terms of strength, they are definitely at the level of generals."

"Then, let's vote now. Those who disagree can express their opinions."

Zhan Guo said in a deep voice.

The meaning of the above is to directly and forcibly confer the rank of general.

But as the admiral of the navy, Zhan Guo knew that this rough method would definitely cause dissatisfaction among most people.

So he laid some groundwork on this basis, and now it seems to be very effective.

Under high pressure, the originally unfair and unjust policies can now be smoothly implemented.

After a moment, he looked at the meeting room with satisfaction without any objections, and nodded.

"So, from today on, Yixiao and Huangmu will be awarded the rank of Admiral of the Navy and enjoy all the rights and obligations of the Admiral of the headquarters."

""I feel ashamed of this."

Fujitora bowed slightly and said calmly and steadily.

His voice was calm and his temperament was approachable. In addition, he was blind and had a simple and honest appearance, which easily attracted the favor of most people.

On the contrary, Aramaki's somewhat rebellious look made some naval generals uncomfortable.

However, they trusted Garp and Sengoku, and at least this person was guaranteed in terms of strength.

"In addition to the appointment of the generals of the World Recruitment, there is another matter that must be decided, that is, the establishment of the position of marshal."

This matter is a major event for the entire navy, and it has been brewing for many days.

The headquarters and most of the grassroots generals support Kuzan, and the five elders above specifically want Sakaski.

There has been an astonishing collision between the supreme power of the superiors and the will of the people as the executors.

After so many years of development, the powerful navy has already mastered a certain degree of voice in the hands of the five elders.

Otherwise, as in the past, the superiors would directly designate Sakaski as the marshal.

Instead of the current situation of confrontation. After the voice of the Warring States fell,

Kuzan and Sakaski could not help but look at each other. They could see the will to never give in in each other's eyes.

"I'll ask you one last time, Kuzan, Sakaski, neither of you has chosen to quit, right?"

Zhan Guo asked.

"Sorry, Mr. Sengoku, I don't have to fight for it at other times, but this time, I have a reason to become the Admiral of the Navy."

Aokiji said with a firm look in his eyes

"I feel the same way. The navy is too weak now. We can't completely eliminate the pirates this way."

Akainu also had a firm look in his eyes, and his voice was low and full of pressure.

"I understand."

Zhan Guo's eyes condensed, his expression became extremely serious, he took a deep breath and said loudly

"Then, you two, Kuzan and Sakaski, will fight to the death."

"The winner becomes the Admiral of the Navy, and the loser is speechless."

Zhan Guo's words were like a huge rock, instantly stirring up a thousand waves in this conference room.

Everyone was a little unwilling to believe their ears.

A life-and-death duel between admirals?

This had never been heard of before.

"Marshal of the Warring States Period, isn't this too much of a joke?"

"Isn't this internal friction between the generals? A life-and-death battle or something?"

"Sengoku, do you want to think about it carefully again?

Obviously, even Garp and Zephyr did not expect that Sengoku would choose such a method.

"Stop arguing. The position of Admiral of the Navy is not so easy to bear. Now that you have chosen it, then hold the determination to die and try to take this position."

Zhan Guo shouted loudly.

"I will not retreat."

Aokiji's will did not fluctuate at all because of the life-and-death duel.

"Just what I want."

Akainu tilted his neck and said with full fighting spirit.

Three days later.

Whitebeard's hometown.

On this remote, peaceful, beautiful island. On the top of a hill. The top of this hill is full of cherry trees, and at this moment, the sky is full of cherry blossoms.

"It's so beautiful."

Nami couldn't help but marvel at the beauty before her.

"My father's hometown is a small island with a fixed climate and no four seasons. The climate here is mild all year round, which is very suitable for the growth of cherry trees. Therefore, cherry blossoms fall here every day."

"This was also Daddy's favorite place, so we buried him here."

Marco explained

"And, did you know that after Roger became the Pirate King, he came to drink with his father under the cherry tree here?"

"Roger? The friendship between the two great men gives people a very legendary feeling."

Usopp couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"This place is indeed a very suitable place for drinking."

Sauro held a bottle of wine in his hand, watching the cherry blossoms falling around him. The grass on the ground was clean and comfortable.

The grass covered with a layer of cherry blossom petals looked very comfortable.

The gentle sunshine, if you can drink this kind of wine and sleep after getting drunk, it is really a great experience.

"We're here."

Walking out of the cherry blossom forest, the gentle sunlight fell.

In front of Luffy and the others was a huge naginata and a huge white cloak with a wreath on it.

This is the eternal resting place of the legendary pirate Whitebeard. It was built on a cliff in his hometown, where one can easily overlook the entire island, with a beautiful cherry blossom forest behind him.

Above is the warm sunshine all year round.

There is no gloomy feeling of a cemetery, only an extreme gentleness.

When he came here, even the playful Luffy couldn't help but put away the smile on his face and became solemn.

"Uncle Whitebeard, long time no see."

Luffy gently poured down a glass of wine.

Although he had only been with Whitebeard for a few days, this uncle left a very deep impression on Luffy.

That kind of hearty and heroic character. (To read the exciting novels, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

After his death, Luffy never saw a man as heroic as Whitebeard.

His heroism is not only in appearance, but also in his heart, as broad as the sea.

The people of the Straw Hat Pirates behind him also gently poured down the wine in their hands.

Facing this legendary pirate, they only have respect in their hearts at this moment.

"Dad will be very happy to see you. You have grown up again. The new era he is looking forward to is coming."

Marco stood beside Luffy and said with emotion.

Behind Marco.

Ace, Vista, Joz, and the captains of the Whitebeard Pirates have fully assembled at this moment.

Their goal is Wano Country.

""Come on, Straw Hat Boys, you helped us a lot in Marinford, now it's our turn to help you."

Marco said with a smile.

Behind him, the captains of the Whitebeard Pirates all had expressions of determination on their faces.

"Oh, let's go to Wano Country."

Luffy put on the straw hat and said with a smile

""Wano Country."

Zoro muttered this word. He always felt that he had seen this somewhere, not Ryoma, but earlier.

But since he hadn't thought of it, it didn't matter.

He had only one goal, and that was Hawkeye.

"I really miss Wano Country."

Ace's eyes were a little excited. The promise he made was finally coming true. He just didn't know if it was too late.

"Let's go to Wano Country."

Wano Country, the capital of flowers

"Lord Crocodile."

Overwhelming cheers came from all directions.

Crocodile stood at the top of the palace, opened his arms, and enjoyed the cheers of the people.

He was a little addicted to this feeling.

This feeling of being the king of a country.

Perhaps it was because he was used to pretending when he was in Alabasta, and now he quite enjoyed the role of a national hero.

Speaking of which.

The people of Wano Country are too easy to satisfy compared to Alabasta.

After all, King Cobra of Alabasta is a wise king, and he can only rely on making the whole country dry to provoke a war.

And Wano Country has been persecuted by Kaido and Kurozumi Orochi for too long.

Crocodile After collecting some information, Crocodile found out that Kurozumi Orochi was not without the ability to govern the country.

It was that he hated this country and every person in this country, so all his means were to make this country even poorer and more miserable.

Before the addition of Kurozumi Orochi, when the Kozuki clan ruled for hundreds of years, the management of the entire Wano Country was very backward and poor.

To be honest, the people's recognition of the Kozuki family was not particularly high. In other words, the Kozuki family's reputation was relatively high only in the Flower Capital, and its reputation was very low in other places.

Crocodile only changed some welfare by killing Kurozumi Orochi and releasing the food stored by Kurozumi Orochi. Profitable policy.

The reputation of the Cross Guild in Wano Country instantly increased a lot, and Crocodile also became the hero of Wano Country. In addition to completely ascending the throne, he can almost be said to be the uncrowned king.

After all, people are a group that tends to pursue interests. Whoever gives enough benefits will be able to gain love.

Moreover, this kind of loss to the people is not great.

Only after taking over Wano Country did Crocodile realize how huge the benefits of Wano Country are.

No wonder Kaido operates his territory with Wano Country as the core.

The craftsmen here, the climate here, the geography here, and the rare resources here make the entire Wano Country a huge treasury. The value created was opened by Kaido. After Wano Country became the hub leading to the outside world, it was so huge that it was frightening.

What was given to the people was just a little bit of the value created, which was enough to make the people of Wano Country grateful.

Crocodile's next plan was to find a time to completely change the name of Wano Country.

On the one hand, he didn't like this name, which was a little ugly.

On the other hand, it could completely erase the traces of the rule of the Kozuki family and other so-called regional rulers in this place.

The next step is to eliminate the so-called samurai forces bit by bit.

This is also very simple. By luring and suppressing them with interests, this backward group can be quietly disbanded in the huge collective.

"That guy is really good at this."

Moonlight Moriah looked at Crocodile with a little envy.

This was once his territory.

However, he was not as good as Crocodile in management, and there was also a gap in strength, so this position, after Barrett, Wald, and Hawkeye gave up, it was Crocodile's turn.

""I've made a fortune."

Buggy stood aside, and his whole body swelled up a lot.

The huge red robe was propped up by his shattered limbs, and the whole person was like a small giant.

Not to mention, it seems that his momentum has indeed increased a lot, and he looks a little like a strong man.

He has a lewd smile on his face at the moment.

His hands are full of gem rings.

They directly and completely received Kaido's accumulation and made a fortune.

Barrett and others didn't think much of these. No one cared if Buggy took it casually. He felt that he was so happy now.

Unlike Buggy and Gekko Moriah,

Barrett, Wald, and Hawkeye didn't have so many expressions on their faces at the moment, only calmness.

This calmness was like accumulating something, just like the calmness before the storm.

"You really brought a big trouble this time, Barrett."

Wald's face seemed to be covered with a shadow, and the look he gave Barrett was very gloomy and dangerous.

He was referring to the possibility that the Straw Hat Pirates might attack Wano Country.

Wald didn't take things like road sign history text seriously.

His dream was to travel around the world with his brother. After being betrayed by his brother and friends, his only thought now was revenge, revenge on the navy, the world government, and the world.

As for the rest, it didn't matter.

He didn't want to fight with the Straw Hat Pirates, who were now in the limelight.

That would do him no good but only harm.

"Are you scared? Walder."

Barrett laughed and challenged,"You were once a world destroyer, but now you are afraid of a few fledgling brats?"

"Don't use such a cheap provocation, Barrett."

Walder whispered, but after thinking about it, he said again:"I can help you once this time, but after that, you have to help me with all your strength once, how about it?"

""Okay."

Barrett thought about it and agreed.

Now, he was only focused on the battle with Luffy. It was very important for him that Wald could help him block the strong men of the Straw Hat Pirates.

"Roronoa Zoro.

Hawkeye sat aside, as if he had not heard the conversation between Barrett and Walder.

He was stroking the big black sword in his hand.

He had only one goal now.

That was to fight Roronoa Zoro in a real battle between great swordsmen.

"How long have I not been so excited as today?"

Hawkeye stroked the big black knife in his hand, his eyes full of burning fighting spirit.
