"It's not good. The Navy Headquarters seems to have taken a serious approach this time and forced all the Shichibukai to participate in the war."
Aladdin, the ship's doctor who was the deputy captain, put down the phone in his hand, clicked his tongue twice, and turned to look aside:
"Boss, what should we do now?"
The one called the boss, wearing a yukata and wearing wooden clogs, was none other than Jinbei.
Jinbei looked at the sea and remained silent.
Not long ago, he was just the deputy captain. From the moment the Sun Pirates were founded, the captain has always been the big brother respected by all fishmen, Fisher Tiger.
But in August last year, Fisher Tiger was reported by local residents for helping the slave girl Kerla return to her hometown, and was ambushed and raided by the G2 branch navy.
The person in charge of the operation was Kizaru himself, who was a candidate for general. The Sun Pirates were defeated and fell into a desperate situation.
As a result, at the critical moment, Kizaru suddenly chose to retreat. Later, the Sun Pirates found out that the other party had received a call from Nosha.
The fish people finally escaped, but they also suffered heavy casualties. Fisher Tiger even had one of his arms cut off. He blamed himself for this, thinking that the "crime" he had committed back then was too great, which had caused him to suffer for a long time. It has always been a thorn in the side of the world government.
If he continues to hold the position of captain, he will undoubtedly bring trouble to the Fish-Man Pirates and even the entire Fish-Man Island.
So half a year ago, he chose to quit the Sun Pirates, handed over the responsibility of captain to Jinbei, and went back to Fishman Island to live in seclusion incognito.
Aaron and others also left together. They had different ideas from Jinbei, and many conflicts broke out. Without Tiger's presence, they were naturally unwilling to continue to obey Jinbei's orders.
Jinbe failed to save the situation, so he had no choice but to take over the responsibility on Tiger's shoulders.
In the past six months, I have been proactively contacting Princess Otohime to work together for the goal of the fish people returning to the surface and fighting for equal rights.
In the middle, he also accepted the invitation of the World Government and became the new generation of Shichibukai.
"You still have to agree, boss?"
Aladdin saw that Jinbei had been silent and did not speak, so he hesitated and said, "Princess Otohime's signature collection plan is almost completed. It will be officially submitted to the next world conference. If we offend the navy..."
"I can't agree, Boss Jinbei!"
The angry voice of Hozozo immediately sounded next to him, "It's true that we became the Shichibukai for our fellow fishmen, but don't forget how much we suffered from those stupid navy last year! How many brothers died in The navy is ambushing you!"
"That's right! If Lord Nuo Xia hadn't helped out again, our lives would have been lost long ago. What's the point of working for the navy now? Is it worthy of Boss Tiger!"
"But the princess's side..."
"Stop talking about the princess, let me ask you, which one is more important, the princess or Tiger Boss!"
There was a quarrel on the entire deck, and the two gangs of fishmen were arguing with each other, and no one was convinced by the other.
"Enough!"
Jinbei's angry shout suddenly sounded, causing silence on the ship.
Countless eyes gathered around him. Jinbei closed his eyes, sighed, and turned to look at the ship's doctor, "Just refuse it first, Aladdin."
"Yes, boss." Aladdin was not surprised by this answer. He nodded with a twinkle in his eye, then turned around and followed the instructions.
Looking at his back, Jinbei remained silent.
It was the brothers who were right. No matter how benevolent and righteous they were, they could not forget the hatred of the past. With the example of Boss Tiger, he would never be able to turn around and help the navies who had ambushed and attacked them.
unless……
Jinbei turned to look at the sky again, shook his head, and smiled to himself.
What are you imagining? How is it possible...
Everyone in the world knows that that adult is still busy chasing Kaido in the New World, and he and the Navy have long been apart. Moreover, it has been three years since he left. If he really wanted to go back to Malinfando, he would have gone back long ago.
Already?
"That's probably it."
Warring States rubbed his temples with a headache, and explained to Nosha, "Among the current Shichibukai, currently only Sand Crocodile Crocodile, and Clown Bucky readily agreed, Moonlight Moria had a vague attitude, and Tyrant Bear responded to the need
Give it some time to think about it.”
"But the Shichibukai Mihawk, the Empress Hancock, Kaixia Jinbei, and Kazuzu all had a cold attitude, and even expressed their rejection outright."
"There is no room for failure in this war. We must try our best to gather all our strength. The Shichibukai is an indispensable and important part."
Warring States stroked his goatee and said with a wry smile, "Without their participation, the odds of winning would inevitably be..."
"Forget it if they don't come. When the war is over, we will settle the accounts one by one."
Akainu suddenly said coldly, "The so-called Shichibukai... are still pirates after all. They are unreliable to begin with. Our navy has to rely on their help to win the war? It's a joke."
"It's true, but it can't be said that way, Sakaski."
The crane on the opposite side picked up the tea cup and said quietly, "It would be a good thing if all the Shichibukai can come here. It is not just a matter of improving our chances of winning. The casualties of grassroots soldiers and generals will also be reduced a lot..."
"But they can't come."
Akainu said expressionlessly, "So in my opinion, there is no need to waste more time on this kind of thing and go directly to the next topic..."
"Wait."
Nosha suddenly interrupted, interrupting Akainu: "In other words, there are only two Shichibukai who are sure to participate in the war?"
"Yes, and there is a complete parallel import inside..."
Warring States smiled bitterly and nodded slightly, suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he looked at Nuo Xia expectantly, "Why, is there anything you can do?"
"Probably." Nuo Xia shrugged, "Do you have the contact information of the remaining five people?"
"Yes, Mr. Nosha."
Flying Squirrel immediately stood up and reported the report with a solemn expression, "In the past few days, Huoshaoshan and I have been responsible for contacting the Shichibukai. Now I have a summary of their contact information in my hand..."
"Bring it here." Nuo Xia said calmly.
"Yes, sir!"
Since Nuo Xia has not officially returned to the headquarters and his position has not yet been determined, Flying Squirrel can only be called this. He rummaged through the thick pile of documents on his desk for a while, pulled them out, came to Nuo Xia's side, and held them respectfully with both hands.
It was handed into his hands.
Nuo Xia flipped through it casually twice, then raised his head and said, "Phone bug."
Ghost Spider immediately stood up and moved the large telephone bug placed in the corner of the conference table in front of Nuo Xia.
What is this for?
Could it be... For a moment, all the senior leaders of the headquarters in the conference hall focused their gazes, with either curiosity, interest, or disbelief...
Brubru~
After ringing for a moment, the phone was connected. Nuo Xia looked at the document in his hand and asked, "Is it Moria?"
"Well, it's me. I'm back in the Navy."
"...What, what do you mean you understand what I mean? I'm not there yet, I will definitely be there? OK, okay, I'll wait for you at the headquarters. Okay, no problem, hang up."
When he raised his head and saw everyone looking at him blankly, Nuo Xia shrugged and said to Warring States, "Moonlight Moria has taken care of it."
Valley/span No, it’s only been ten seconds, right?
In just a few sentences, you managed to create a Shichibukai?
All the senior executives of the headquarters were stunned. You looked at me, I looked at you, but Nuo Xia was already facing the dial and dialing the next number.
"Hello, I'm Nuo..."
"Ah, it's Master Nuo Xia!!!!!"
Before Nuo Xia could finish his sentence, a sharp and excited cry instantly penetrated everyone's eardrums.
Everyone who had just come to their senses was dumbfounded again.
Huh? A woman’s voice? If you heard correctly, this should be the Snake Princess who is known as the most beautiful woman in the world, right?
Isn’t this the legendary most beautiful woman in the world, with an arrogant and withdrawn personality, and a frosty look towards everyone...
The idol halo has collapsed!
"Wow, it's really scary..."
In the corner, Kizaru crossed his legs and sighed with empty eyes, "Even the empress has become a fanatical fan. She is truly worthy of Nosha..."
"When did you come to the headquarters?"
Taotu next to her turned around inexplicably, and then she realized that there was someone else in the empty seat next to her.
"You might not believe it when you come out."
Huang Sir sighed sadly, "I came in with Nuo Xia behind me. However, from the port to the headquarters, whether it was the recruits or you, all eyes were focused on that kid, but no one paid any attention to me. How can this be unreasonable...
…”
"If you are ugly, your presence will naturally be low. Who can blame you?" Taotu curled his lips.
"Hey! Gion-chan! That's too much. You didn't have such a vicious tongue back then!"
Huang Sir was filled with grief and anger, "Sure enough, I married that guy and was led astray. Damn it, how could the flower of the high mountains in my headquarters degenerate like this..."
"Oh, right."
Suddenly the sadness on his face disappeared, he leaned close to Taotu's ear, winked obscenely, and whispered, "You still have the intention to ridicule me now? Don't you think it's weird? When did that Snake Girl have a relationship with Nuo Xia?
The intersection looks familiar? She is the most beautiful woman in the world, little Gion, don’t worry... Hey, stop stepping on it, it hurts, it hurts!!!"
Ignoring the grinning Kizaru with an aggrieved expression, Taotu turned his head, squinted his eyes, and looked at Nuo Xia, who was smiling and communicating with him on the other end of the phone, and his expression gradually became a little unkind.
"...Okay, okay, okay, don't cry, there are many people here listening, remember to arrive early, don't be late."
Nuo Xia didn't notice Huang Sir's back stab at all. After hanging up the empress's phone, he dialed the next number of Hawkeye Mihawk.
"Definitely arriving."
This was much simpler. Hawkeye, who was accustomed to being taciturn, only dropped three words after hearing his voice and hung up the phone directly.
Then came Bear, Jinbe... Soon, after a circle, all the Shichibukai who had originally been indifferent changed their tune and promised to arrive at Marineland on time.
It only takes two or three minutes.
"Okay, it's all done."
Nuo Xia threw the microphone back, lay back on the backrest and stretched, "There is no shortage of Shichibukai, and all of them will participate in the war. This matter is over, let's move on to the next topic."
However, there was still no movement.
There was silence in the conference room, everyone stared at him blankly, even Seng Guo remained in the posture of drinking tea for a long time without moving.
It wasn't until Nuo Xia looked over inexplicably that the old man from the Warring States Period came back to his senses. The corners of his eyes twitched slightly, he put down the teacup, and sighed with a wry smile:
"As expected of you..." -
Due to the sudden arrival of Nosha and Kizaru, the highest meeting of the headquarters ended an hour later than originally expected.
The meeting basically sorted out the preparations for the war, and the navy's elite forces were almost assembled.
Next, all we have to do is wait for the Pirate Alliance in the New World to let out some news and then decide on the next move.
As soon as the meeting ended, Nuo Xia quickly went home to spend time with his wife and children.
The so-called returning home is about as fast as an arrow, that's probably true, but there is nothing we can do about it. After all, the last time I met my family was before I went to the East China Sea, and it had been several months.
However, this peaceful happiness of family reunion did not last long and was broken in the evening.
The outsider who made the breakthrough was none other than the naval marshal Sengoku himself who came to visit in person.
Warring States held a document under his arm, stood outside the courtyard gate, and rang the doorbell. After waiting for a while, the door opened, and a cute and cute blue-haired girl poked her head out. She tilted her head and shouted sweetly:
"Hello Grandpa Warring States~"
"Hey, ok, ok, long time no see, little Nuoqi is tall and beautiful."
Zeng Guo's heart almost melted, he smiled and rubbed little Nuo Qigao's head, "Where is your father?"
"Dad..."
Nuo Qigao's little face became a little weird, as if she was holding back a smile, and she looked back and said, "It's right there."
Warring States followed her gaze and happened to see...
The invincible Lord White Dragon Nosha was running around the garden being chased by his wives, while another heartless daughter was standing next to him, applauding and cheering.
"Damn it, how could Sir Huang accuse someone of their innocence out of thin air?"
"Why are we so familiar with her? We are really not familiar, really! I swear on the lives of all the Celestial Dragons in the Holy Land, in the past few years, I have never seen that side of her!"
"Then why does she admire and trust me so much? Nonsense, how many girls in this world don't admire me?"
"It hurts, it hurts!!!! Stop hitting the brigadier general. If you hit me again for resisting, I really resisted. I'll kill the three of you together..."
"Ahem!"
Warring States couldn't stand it any longer and coughed several times.
A few seconds later.
Nuosha appeared at the door with a bruised nose and swollen face. He stretched out his hand and wiped his face. The scars he had made to make his wife happy immediately disappeared and he became handsome again.
"When did you come?"
He scratched his head in embarrassment, "Do you have a problem with me? Or were you asked by old man Garp to join us for a meal?"
"What are you talking about? Can I be as shameless as that old man? I can't come to your house more than once a week in the past few years,"
Warring States period blew his beard and stared.
It's not too much to do it once a week... Nuo Xia cursed: "Then you are..."
"Of course it's for business."
Warring States rolled his eyes, took out the document from under his arm, and handed it over, "Here, I personally went to the Holy Land to help you with it. Open it and take a look."
