"Hey, leave this matter to Garp. Warring States, please come and take a look at this information. I think this is more important."
Marshal Kong took out a report from the drawer and pushed it to the edge of the desk. Warring States walked over and picked it up to take a look, his expression suddenly changed with shock.
"This is going to be a big deal!"
"Have you found out who spread the rumor? This matter must be taken seriously!"
Marshal Kong shook his head and sighed: "This is the information sent from CIPHER POL. They haven't found the source yet. They only know that it is not only being transmitted by the Grand Line, but also by the Four Seas."
"Is it too late?" Seng Guo's brows could almost kill a mosquito.
"If so, then this rumor is definitely not an accident, but a long-planned action by someone, and there are quite a lot of people. Only in this way can it spread to all sea areas at nearly the same time!"
"One Piece's great treasure, ONE PIECE..."
He seemed to have guessed who could do it.
Marie Joa, in the Pongol Castle, Im was sitting on the Void Throne, looking down at the five old stars who were kneeling down.
But his face became colder than before, and his originally cheerful mood was now extremely angry.
Regarding the rumors about the great treasure ONE PIECE, he received the information faster than the Navy. This was the main reason why he met the Five Old Stars again.
There is no reason why he should not pay attention to this matter!
"It must be Roger's crew members who are spreading rumors. Roger should have told them before he died. But what is their purpose of doing this?" said the blond five-old star kneeling down on the far left.
He is the top person in charge of CIPHER POL, and basically all intelligence-related matters are under his control.
"The Great Age of Pirates!"
Im at the top uttered five words coldly. He had just found a way to stop Roger's mouth during the execution. He thought he could prevent this from happening, but he didn't expect that the latter would still have such a hand.
Although this method of spreading rumors around the world through crew members is far less shocking and influential than a loud shout during a public execution, the appeal of One Piece's great treasure has not changed in itself, it just needs more
time to propagate and ferment.
He could already see everywhere in the sea, countless young and middle-aged people, shouting "One Piece", setting sail and pouring into the sea, rushing towards Upside Down Mountain!
The five old stars felt heavy when they heard the five words Im said. Among the futures Im briefly introduced before, there was something about the Great Pirate Age.
It is said that it was an era when the number of pirates was so large that even the current navy could not suppress it.
For eight hundred years, the sea under the control of the World Government has maintained relative calm and order, although there have been occasional disturbances. However, the era of great pirates triggered by Roger has left the entire sea in a state of chaos.
The whole sea is boiling!
The Five Old Stars also thought that this kind of thing would never happen again, but now... I have to say that both they and Im underestimated this Pirate King.
"We should order the kings of the participating countries to strictly control domestic people going to sea, and let the naval branches everywhere increase patrols. At the same time, let CIPHER POL arrest those who dare to spread rumors, so as to shock the world and the sea.
!”
The bald Goro Hoshi, who knelt down and knelt down second from the left, holding the first-generation Kitetsu, suggested with a fierce expression.
The other four all nodded in agreement. Their approach was exactly the same as that of the Five Old Stars in the previous dynasties, which was suppression and erasure.
But Im, who is sitting on the throne, knows that their methods will not work. The ocean in this world is too big. Although the navy has many people and many warships, it is difficult to patrol in the face of the vast sea.
How tight the ground is.
Wu Laoxing, who realized that Master Yi Mu did not agree with their proposal, fell silent for a while.
Im thought for ten minutes and finally spoke.
"These people who went to sea to become thieves because of rumors, their main goal is the so-called big treasure, and their destination is the 'New World'. From the Four Seas to the first half of the Grand Route, and then to the 'New World', there are two nodes:
Must pass."
The flat-hatted Five Old Stars, who knelt down second from the right and had a hideous scar on his left face, responded: "You mean Upside Down Mountain and Fish-Man Island?"
Of course he wouldn't say it was Marie Joa, joking, how could the pirates be allowed to enter the 'New World' through here, so it could only be the Fish-Man Island located 10,000 meters below and the crack at the bottom of the Red Earth Continent.
"That's right, if a naval branch is set up at the entrance to the Upside Down Mountain to intercept and check the identities of incoming ships, it can directly block the influx of pirates from all over the world into the Grand Line!"
Im's idea came from the customs in his previous life. The geographical environment of Upside Down Mountain could make the customs function almost perfect.
If a ship wants to enter the Grand Route from all over the world, there are actually two ways, one is to take the windless zone, and the other is to take the Upside Down Mountain.
Of course, if you are strong enough, you can indeed pass through the windless zone, but among the pirates from all over the world, how many of them can break through the windless zone?
"What a great idea! This is a great idea!" Wu Laoxing, who had two goatees, praised him greatly.
"That's right, and not only can a naval branch be set up at the foot of the Upside Down Mountain on the Grand Line, but a naval branch can also be set up at the entrance to the Four Seas, or several warships can be stationed for a long time as the first checkpoint!"
Kneeling down in the middle, the five old stars with a mustache and a spot on their foreheads seemed to have opened the door to a new world, and many new ideas emerged in their minds.
"This is a good idea, but..." The bald five-old star holding the first-generation ghost hesitated.
Im's eyes turned to the other party, "It's just nothing, tell me."
"It's just that this requires a lot of naval combat power and troops to be stationed at the Upside Down Mountain branch. They have to face countless ships from four sea areas. If they want to inspect them one by one, they need a space that is large enough.
The branch base can accommodate the berthing of so many ships and the queuing of people."
"At the same time, there must be no shortage of government personnel responsible for inspections and naval personnel stationed at the branch. They must have a place to live, but there seems to be no suitable island near the foot of the mountain."
The bald Five Old Stars told what was on their mind, and Im also nodded secretly. This is indeed an issue that cannot be ignored.
The other four Five Old Stars thought hard, what would they do if there was no island? They couldn't build an island out of thin air.
They also considered whether the first island of the seven routes in the first half of the Grand Line could be used as a naval branch, but it was just a little far from the entrance to the Upside Down Mountain.
Although warships can be dispatched in advance to wait at the entrance and then urge the ships to go to the island for inspection, this is not only very troublesome, but also has a high possibility of accidents.
They didn't believe that those guys who went to sea to become thieves would honestly accept the arrangement. They would probably rush out by force, but how many warships could stop them?
At this moment, Im had a flash of inspiration. This idea made him feel a little excited, but he had to maintain his superficial indifference.
