Windless zone.

A steel monster was chopping the waves on the sea. Its huge size and thick and hard body made even some Neptunes who came to play on the sea couldn't help but avoid it after seeing it.

A news bird flew over the sky, and after seeing the giant steel ship, it landed directly on the aisle railing outside the bridge.

After seeing this, an orange-haired girl also opened the hatch and walked out of the bridge, took out 200 beli, and changed a newspaper from Newsbird.

World Economic News, relying on the advantages of Newsbird, directly dominates the entire world's newspaper industry.

Others make newspapers, which can generally only be distributed on a certain island, or at most a certain kingdom, but cannot be distributed to the whole world.

But Morgans is different. With the advantage of Newsbird, he can send newspapers to every corner of the world in a very short time.

After driving the news bird away in disgust, the girl began to read today's news, and then...

"Li Yan, come over quickly and take a look, something big has happened!"

"What's wrong?"

“Look at today’s headlines!”

"Um?"

Li Yan took the newspaper from Nami and read it carefully.

Something really happened, and it was not a big deal.

Just yesterday, Kaido teamed up with the BIGMOM pirates and took advantage of the navy's lack of defense to directly attack the G1 branch and rescued all of Cracker, Bree and Flame Calamity.

According to Morgans' report, in this battle, at least 2,000 sailors were killed, and countless others were injured. Even a lieutenant general was killed.

As for Aokiji, who was stationed at the G1 branch at the time, he was also injured. If Garp hadn't happened to go to the G1 branch to perform the task of escorting pirates and happened to catch up...

I'm afraid that the death of a naval admiral is really going to happen, something that hasn't happened in hundreds of years.

This incident was definitely a heavy blow to the Navy Headquarters.

However, Li Yan couldn't figure it out. After so much time, why were Cracker and others still in the G1 branch?

Moreover, knowing that Kaido and BIGMOM knew that Cracker and Flame Calamity were caught, they would never swallow their anger, but why didn't they take any precautions?

This is simply outrageous.

Of course, Li Yan could think of this, and so could Warring States. Even if Warring States was really stupid, He would never be stupid in this matter.

However, an unexpected thing appeared here, that is, the Tianlong people.

A bored Tianlong wanted to go to Dressrosa, so he used his privileges to take away three lieutenant generals and 3,000 elite navy soldiers at the G1 branch. Even half of the warships were taken away.

...

As a result, the combat power of the entire branch was greatly weakened, and the two Four Emperors seized the opportunity and defeated it in a very short period of time!

To be honest, in this world, the status of the navy is really no different from that of a dog.

No matter how important your deployment is, if a Celestial Dragon comes randomly, even if the reason is just to go for a walk, you will have to disrupt the deployment and deploy a large number of troops to protect him.

Thinking about it, I am about to go to the Shampoo Islands, which is a popular place for Draco people to travel and check in. I hope I will not run into anyone who is not discerning.

Putting down the newspaper and looking at the sea in front of him, Li Yan couldn't help but think so.

------

Ten days later, Shampoo Islands, Area 1.

"Captain, the navy is surrounding us!"

As soon as he walked out of the population auction, Deus said nervously to Ace beside him.

"It's really annoying. Isn't it just destroying the Shichibukai's territory? Does the navy need to be so active?"

"Captain, Doflamingo's grave is already covered with grass, and the population auction is now the property of the Draco. Even the managers are Marigio's people."

"What, why didn't you tell me such an important thing earlier?"

With a look of shock on his face, Ace asked loudly.

"I said it, but you were too excited at the time and didn't listen..."

"Oh...is that so?"

Hearing this, Ace looked at Deus and the other crew members around him with suspicion, and saw everyone nodding helplessly.

"Hahahaha, it turns out it's my fault, it's okay, it's just a group of marines, let's just rush out!"

"Remember, don't kill anyone when you take action, after all..."

Ace did not continue, but everyone else knew what he meant. After all, they had been following Ace for more than half a year.

For a long time, although the crew of the Spade Pirates didn't know the reason, Ace would hurt people every time he fought with the navy, but he would never kill anyone.

For Ace, he actually feels guilty for Garp.

Compared to Luffy's heartless character, Ace obviously thinks more.

After all, it would be difficult for Garp to kill a large number of naval forces by himself.

Therefore, Ace never holds back when dealing with pirates or Marigio's agents, but when dealing with the Navy, he will run away if he can. If it is not possible and he needs to force his way out, he will try his best not to get hurt.

and life.

"Don't worry, Captain, we know!"

Deus and others, who knew their captain well, nodded to show that they knew.

------

Just when Ace led the members of the Spade Pirates to break out of the naval encirclement.

Area No. 65, a dedicated naval port.

At this moment, almost all the sailors who were still in the navy station ran to the port and watched the steel giant that was docking.

It is true that this warship is too big, and it is also a giant steel ship. Especially the two triple cannons on the bow are full of deterrence.

Fortunately, this steel monster was hung with the navy's flag, which made all the sailors present feel at ease.

"Sir, I am Colonel Berg of the Naval Branch of Shampoo Island!"

When he saw a Lieutenant General stepping off the warship, Berg immediately greeted him.

"Well, I am Li Yan, Governor of the East China Sea. Where is Lieutenant General Holder?"

"Lieutenant General Li Yan, because there are pirates making trouble on the island, Lieutenant General Holder is leading people to deal with it and is not in the station for the time being!"

"The pirates are causing trouble...could it be the super newcomer with a bounty of 250 million, Fire Fist Ace?"

"Yes, it's that Fire Fist Ace. He just smashed up the population auction belonging to the Tianlong people in Area 1, so..."

Well, no need for Berg to say more, Li Yan already understood.

Isn't it just that you are doing dog things again?

Population auction in Area 1...

It was the one that belonged to Doflamingo before. Unexpectedly, after his death, this property was directly taken away by the Celestial Dragons.

"Luffy, Nokigo!"

"You guys go, stop Ace's mischief, and bring him and the rest of the Spade Pirates back. Also, Noki, please keep an eye on Luffy, otherwise I'm afraid he'll go to the wrong place!"

After pondering for a moment, Li Yan directly gave the order.

After hearing the order, Luffy, who was already impatient, immediately started on his way, while Nokigao disappeared with a flash of lightning.

This scene made Berg feel a little shocked.

After all, he also graduated from the elite navy training camp, and he was among the top performers in the training camp. He became a major in the headquarters right after graduation, and over the years, he has climbed to the position of colonel step by step.

Therefore, things like Six Styles are not unfamiliar to him who was born in an elite training camp. Berg himself is even very skilled in shaving.

But at this moment...

But he didn't see Luffy's movement clearly at all.

And the woman next to me actually had the rank of brigadier general on her shoulders, and the most important thing was that she transformed into thunder and disappeared.

what does that mean?

It means that the other party is a Devil Fruit user, and also of the natural type.

Natural devil fruit...

Isn't that the legendary thunder fruit that hasn't appeared in decades?

Shouldn't the East China Sea be considered the weakest in the four seas, but the warship in front of me, and these navy soldiers whose momentum is even worse than the elite of our headquarters...
