Shanks raised his eyebrows and smiled.

"You do have a pair of eyes that can see into people's hearts, red-haired!"

Whitebeard narrowed his eyes.

"Then, we should discuss how to prepare for this war!"

"The Navy's decision was just announced today. This shows that they have made all the necessary preparations!"

"And we, naturally, also need to make the most detailed deployment for this battle!"

Shanks' eyes were solemn and he said in a deep voice.

"I called you here for this very reason!"

"Given Zhan Guo's personality, I'm afraid he has completely turned Marinford into an iron wall."

Whitebeard nodded and his expression turned serious.

They are all strong men who have experienced many battles and can naturally see through the hidden information behind the news.

"Marshal Sengoku, he is your old rival!"

Shanks narrowed his eyes and suddenly said.

"I need more information, including that of Zhan Guo, Xia Le, and other generals!"

After all, he had only been one of the Four Emperors for six years, and his understanding of the navy was far less detailed than that of the old senior in front of him.

"No problem at all."

"I will tell you slowly!"

Whitebeard chuckled as he recalled the past.

-

Holy Land Mary Joy.

"Navy is very brave, or rather, Sengoku is indeed a very courageous man!"

The deep voice echoed in the magnificent palace.

"He does have his own way and a certain amount of courage, but this is not a good thing for us!"

"Especially the news coming from the navy recently."

At this point, the eyes of the five old men sitting on the sofa became sharp, and a gloomy look appeared on their faces.

"Xia Le, he actually dared to walk out of Impel Down!"

"Since you dare to come out, you must have some support!"

"Zhan Guo's confidence also comes from this. Otherwise, how could he have the courage to attack Whitebeard after quietly staying in the position of marshal for more than ten years?"

“This is a good thing for the world!”

"But it is not very beneficial to the change of naval power."

The voices of the five old men became increasingly low and contained a hint of coldness.

"Over the past decade, he has built the navy into a united front. Although our people have been working hard, the results are not obvious and we have been pushed to the margins."

"Is this the method used by the wise general Zhan Guo?"

"He seems to support Kuzan's rise to power, right?"

"No, now he is probably the most powerful supporter behind Xia Le."

"That man walked out of Impel Down and only stayed in the headquarters for a few days, but he already gained a lot of supporters."

"If this continues, once Zhan Guo abdicates, he will definitely be the next in line."

"What damn news!"

Suddenly, an angry curse was heard.

The five old men were chatting when they suddenly lost their composure.

Chapter 274 You Know Me Well

Naval Headquarters, Marinevando.

Hurrying figures kept coming in and out of the Warring States office.

From the moment the headquarters decided to announce the time of Ace's execution, the atmosphere here became more tense than yesterday.

"Our people have already set out to various parts of the world to invite the various Shichibukai."

The navy officer, looking nervous, reported quickly.

Xia Le nodded: "Very good!"

Haijun turned and left, walked out of the office and ran hurriedly.

Xia Le, who was sitting on a chair, turned his head to look at Zhan Guo, only to see that the naval marshal was concentrating on reading the mountain of documents in front of him.

His brows were tightly furrowed, as if he felt a little hot. He took off his hat, revealing his gray pigtails.

Then, he crumpled up the documents on the table, cursed "mess", and stuffed the ball of paper into the mouth of the sheep next to him.

Seeing this, Xia Le was already filled with emotion.

It's not easy to do any job. Even if you become the admiral of the navy, there will be a lot of troubles waiting for you.

The closer it got to the foreplay of war, the greater the pressure on Zhan Guo became. With Xia Le's keen observation, he could see that there were only a few black hairs left on the other person's head, and a few of them would turn white every day.

As for the other people in the office, besides Xia Le, there is Vice Admiral Tsuru and Kizaru Borsalino who clocks in for work every day.

He also lowered his head and dealt with the documents on the desk.

Borsalino put his legs on the table, closed his eyes and rested, doing his slacking off openly.

"Xia Le, have all the Seven Warlords of the Sea been notified?"

Suddenly, Zhan Guo seemed to remember something, looked up and asked.

"I have notified them. When they come to the headquarters, I will host the Wu Hai meeting and inform them of the upcoming war matters!"

Xia Le smiled.

"it is good!"

Zhan Guo nodded, then buried his head and continued to deal with the documents on the desk.

Xia Le smiled slightly, as there was nothing to deal with for the time being.

After the news about Ace's execution was announced, he moved to Sengoku's office and got himself a simple workstation.

Firstly, there are bound to be a lot of things that need to be dealt with on the eve of a war. Secondly, it is also convenient for Zhan Guo and him to make quick adjustments and discussions on changes related to the war.

"teacher."

Suddenly, Kuina's figure appeared at the door and called out softly.

"come in!"

Xia Le smiled and waved.

Kuina glanced at the other people in the office, then tiptoed up to Xia Le.

"Is there a problem?"

Xia Le asked with a smile.

"It's about Zoro."

Kuina hesitated and whispered, she seemed a little embarrassed.

"Roronoa Zoro?"

"Has he woken up yet?"

Xia Le asked casually.

He still had a good impression of this three-sword swordsman. With a strong will, daring courage, and good kendo talent, he was a very good seedling.

"he."

Kuina seemed embarrassed to bring it up.

"how?"

Xia Le raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile.

"He has woken up, but has been in training for the past few days."

Kuina lowered her head and her voice was barely audible.

He seemed to be ashamed of his childhood friend's boldness and incredible behavior.

"In the training ground?"

Xia Le was stunned and didn't understand for a moment.

The next second, his observation Haki radiated towards the direction of the training ground. When he saw the figure covered in scars fighting with the Shura class students, surprise and astonishment appeared on his face.

"He doesn't even have the slightest awareness of being a captured criminal!"

Xia Le said with a smile, and also sighed in his heart.

Even though he is in the enemy camp, he is still able to seize every opportunity and strive to become stronger. It has to be said that Zoro's thinking logic is different from that of ordinary people.

But this also indicates that as long as nothing unexpected happens, it is almost certain that the other party will become a strong person.

"Teacher, what do you mean about him?"

Kuina asked nervously.

She knew very well that how to deal with Zoro was just a matter of a word from the teacher. And she had made a mistake by secretly leading her friends to the training ground.

"The war is imminent, and I don't have time to deal with this little guy right now."

After taking a look at Kuina, Xia Le smiled.

"Let him do it for now, but there is one thing."

After a pause, his tone became a little serious.

“You are not allowed to leave the area around the training ground.”

Upon hearing this, Kuina immediately nodded excitedly: "I promise he won't run around!"

Then, as if she remembered something, she made a solemn promise.

"I will keep a close eye on him!"

Xia Le smiled and waved.

Kuina walked briskly, turned around and walked away quickly.

When his beloved disciple disappeared, a wretched figure suddenly appeared behind Xia Le.

"Is Roronoa Zoro one of those dangerous supernovas?"

Xia Le's expression remained unchanged: "Yes, it's him."

"General Xia Le is really a man of great skill and courage. He personally took action and captured all the supernovas in just a short time."

"It's just that you seem to treat these young pirates differently."

As he spoke, Borsalino looked thoughtful.

He wanted to slack off and punch in in the navy, but this was not so easy, he had to do the minimum homework.

For example, the relationships and connections among the senior naval officials, as well as some invisible relationships that ordinary people cannot discover.

Simple ones include which officers the son and grandson of the naval hero Garp and the Sengoku Marshal have closer relationships with, and who the veteran strong man Xia Le favors more, etc.

Only by understanding these things clearly can you avoid taboos in future interactions and keep the working relationship harmonious.

Xia Le's eyes flickered when he heard this, and he was about to make up something to cover it up, but the latter had already prepared a reason for him.

"I heard that you, Xia Le, persuaded the pirates to join the army. This is a great deed!"
