Chapter 394: Wood wants to participate in the war on top?
"Old man from the Warring States Period, if you want me to carry out any secret mission again, I advise you to give up.
No matter if it’s a promotion or a salary increase this time, I won’t be interested in it. If you want to deduct your salary, you can just deduct it. Anyway, I don’t have that little money now.”
Just as Zeng Guo picked up the phone and was about to speak, a rather unhappy voice came from the other side and said this, making Zeng Guo look embarrassed.
Seng Guo actually understood Wood's emotions, because none of the tasks he had asked Wood to do over the years were easy.
First, he attacked Impel Down and pretended to rebel, and then he caused the Don Quixote family's "surgery fruit" deal with the World Government to fail.
Then there is the matter of the Pluto design on Judiciary Island, and the recent conflict between the Yonko BG and Kaido of the Beasts.
No matter every mission, no matter the characters or things involved, they are not ordinary existences, and the difficulty value of the mission is always in a state of being maxed out.
But even these difficult tasks were still completed by Wood every time, and the situation was achieved to the satisfaction of the Warring States Period. This was the reason why he entrusted Wood with important tasks again and again.
Wood was able to complete the mission perfectly every time and took the navy out of the way, which made Sengoku appreciate Wood's ability to do things.
But there are actually some dissatisfactions with Wood from the Warring States Period.
That's why Wood is becoming increasingly difficult to deal with...
In the past, when he had just become a pirate, he could use his promotion and salary increase to defraud this lazy and trouble-free boy.
But later, when Wood realized that his undercover career seemed to be quite long, and it seemed that he would never get a salary, this method began to be useless to him.
There was no other way. In order for Wood to continue taking action, Warring States could only promise that as long as the mission was completed, he would satisfy Wood's retirement wish and let him find a remote place to work as a branch colonel waiting to die.
But after so many years, the promise of the Warring States Period has not been fulfilled, so Wood simply gave up his job.
Until the last time, Sengoku was almost helpless against Wood. In the end, he thought that his sister Ain would be in danger if she went on a mission, so he took the initiative to take over the mission to go to the BG tea party.
Warring States also knew very well that it was imperative to use Ain for things like this, otherwise Wood would really be forced to rebel.
After so many years, Sengoku, Garp and other senior naval officials still firmly believed that they were right and that Wood possessed the qualities of "justice".
It's just that Wood's "justice" is different from the "justice" they implement. He has been acting in his own way.
The current Navy is not Wood's enemy, so he will always keep in touch with him. In addition, the Navy also has Gion, Ain, Zefa and others who Wood cares about, so unless there are special circumstances, Wood will not be too
Possibly an enemy of the Navy.
"There is no secret mission for you this time. I just want to ask, why did you go to the Chambord Islands this time, and why did you start a fight with Kizaru?"
It seemed like a casual inquiry, but in fact Sengoku was very concerned about Wood's answer because he wanted to know whether Wood's attitude towards the navy was still the same after so many years.
After all, compared to a titular "Vice Admiral", Wood's current status as the Emperor of the Underworld of Ancient Weapons is obviously more impressive.
As long as a person is a human being, he is immersed in power and money, and the Warring States Period cannot tell whether the Wood of today is still the Wood of the past.
"I just happened to be passing by the Chambord Islands, and I heard that the Pacifist developed by the Naval Science Corps is a very powerful human weapon.
Marshal of the Warring States Period, you also know that I am in the arms business, so I wanted to get one back to see if Vegapunk is as powerful as the rumors say.
As for that guy Kizaru, I didn’t provoke him, he was the one who made the first move, probably because he thought I was so handsome that his outdated and wretched uncle face couldn’t steal the spotlight when I was on the same stage.”
Hearing Wood's shameless answer, the "well" veins on Sengoku's head kept popping up. Kizaru was the head of the Navy's scientific force.
Wood was arrogantly preparing to bring home the latest research results of the scientific team. How could he turn a blind eye!
However, although he was very angry, through Wood's answer, Sengoku also judged that Wood had no intention of betraying the Navy, so he continued to speak: "The execution date of Fire Fist Ace has been decided, and the location will be Marine Headquarters Marinevando.
You have to find a way to be there when the time comes.”
The Navy has found out that Carter D. Ace is the bloodline of Pirate King Gol D. Roger, and is preparing to declare the power of their navy through a full live broadcast.
However, the important point is that Fire Fist Ace is the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates. With Whitebeard's protective character, he will never sit back and watch his godson be executed by the navy.
Among the current Four Emperors, the Whitebeard Pirates are definitely the strongest, and Whitebeard himself is also known as the strongest man in the world.
To be honest, although the navy has made a lot of preparations, Marshal Sengoku was still unsure whether he could successfully capture the "Whitebeard Pirates".
"The King's Shichibukai" is still a pirate at heart, and he might turn against him as soon as he fights.
Garp watched Fire Fist Ace grow up and regarded him as his own grandson. Based on Warring States' understanding of him, it was inevitable that he would choose to release him into the sea.
In fact, if the three major naval forces fight against Whitebeard in a three-on-one battle, they should be able to defeat the opponent. But the point is that the captains of Whitebeard's divisions are basically tough guys.
In order to stabilize the situation, Zhijiang Warring States not only took multiple preventive measures, but now he also feels that more combat power is needed to stabilize the situation and prevent any emergencies.
And Wood is obviously an excellent candidate. Not only is he full of bad intentions, but he is also smart enough to do things. The important thing is that his strength is currently among the top in the sea.
"Marshal Sengoku, are you not mistaken? I am a pirate, but you asked me to participate in the war on the top?
Are you preparing for a showdown with the whole world? Admitting that I am a Navy undercover agent?"
To be honest, even if the Warring States Marshal really planned to let Wood show his cards, he might not be able to do it now.
Because now his identity is very useful in the sea, and he is involved in all the forces, so he can enjoy a lot.
However, if he returns to the Navy, even if he is directly reinstated and promoted to Vice Admiral, it will be extremely detrimental to the current Wood.
And as long as he, Wood, hadn't admitted that he was a Navy undercover, no one would believe it even if Sengoku disclosed it to the public.
The reason is also very simple. Based on what Wood has done in the past and his current status, it is impossible for anyone to believe that he is actually a marine.
The navy is just a lackey of the World Government and the Celestial Dragons, but Wood used money and power to strangle the Celestial Dragons by their necks.
As the most powerful boss in the underground world, Wood can even single-handedly cause the market in half of the underground world to collapse. Can the Navy do this?
As long as Wood has an idea, he can immediately form a very large pirate fleet and equip it with the latest weapons. Even if he is competing for the position of the Four Emperors, he hopes that it will not be ordinary. Can the navy do it?
"No, your current identity is very good. If it is not exposed, it will obviously be more helpful to the navy. Although I hope you will participate in the war, I hope you will participate as a pirate."
Chijiang Sengoku was not a fool. With great difficulty, a general of their navy went from being a new pirate to becoming a big shot in the sea. How could he choose to reveal his identity so easily?
When Wood returned to the Navy Headquarters, Marine Fando only had an alternate general with considerable strength, codenamed "Mojiao".
If he continued to maintain his current identity, Wood would not only be able to pass on important information to him from time to time, but could even use his identity to complete some very difficult tasks for the navy. How could Sengoku have the heart to let Wood reveal his identity?
"I am a pirate going to participate in the War on the Top. Marshal Sengoku, you think the Whitebeard Pirates are not enough to defeat you, and are you going to increase the difficulty of the dungeon?"
After hearing what Sengoku said, Wood was really a little confused. Pirates and the navy are naturally antagonistic. If he participates in the war without revealing his true identity, he will have to be the enemy of the navy.
Can go.
"Wood, our navy has made complete preparations for the Whitebeard Pirates this time. It is impossible for Whitebeard to walk out of Marinevando alive this time.
And you have been a force on the sea for so many years, don’t you want to take a step closer and become one of the Four Emperors?”
After hearing the methodical voice of the Warring States Marshal coming from the phone bug, Wood understood instantly.
Sengoku is preparing to play a big game. Not only does he want to defeat the "Whitebeard Pirates" this time, he also wants to push Wood, a young boy, into the position of one of the Four Emperors!
The "Yonko" is currently the pinnacle of pirates, and is also the emperor of the sea who combines strength and power.
If one of the four emperors was from the navy, Sengoku felt that the navy would have a more advantageous advantage over the pirates who controlled the sea.
"I refuse! Being the Four Emperors now means being a target. Even if Whitebeard dies and the others fight for that position, I don't have much interest.
But if it's a war, I wouldn't mind going there to join in the fun, but I guess there won't be many people going.
It is impossible for Nico Robin to help the navy, and the fishmen are not suitable to participate in the war on the top. They already have conflicts with humans. If they rashly participate in such a battle, Princess Otohime's efforts over the years will be in vain.
So even if we participate in the war at the top, the only people who will most likely go are me and Russ."
After hearing what Wood said, the Warring States Marshal did not force it. Anyway, as long as Wood was willing to participate in the war, it was enough. He mainly wanted to have an extra layer of insurance to prevent emergencies.
I will leave a gap for you at the Gate of Justice. With your ability, it shouldn't be difficult to get here.
After talking about the business, Wood and Seng Guo both put down the phone bug in their hands. Seng Guo locked the phone bug into the encrypted room again, while Wood simply put it in his arms, and after thinking for a moment, told him again.
He told Robin and Russ that he planned to practice in seclusion again.
In the previous mission where Wood fought with BG and Kaido, he got two opportunities to simulate the world.
It was consumed once when he went to the "Zero World", and now that he could still conduct a life simulation of all worlds, Wood decided to use it directly.
The top war should be the highest-level war in the current pirate series. The strongest man in the world v. The three admirals of the navy, the Whitebeard Pirates p.k. Marine Fando.
Participating in this battle, in addition to Whitebeard and the three navy generals, there were also many navy admirals, large and small, the captains of the 16 divisions of the Whitebeard Pirates, as well as the "Ocean Shichibukai".
To put it simply, most of the more prominent people in the sea will gather there this time.
Although Wood is quite confident in his current strength, he is not so arrogant that he thinks he can reach the top of the battle.
Anyway, there is no other use for keeping the simulation opportunity, so Wood decided to conduct another life simulation in all worlds before going to war.
I don’t seek to make myself so strong that I can break through the sky, I just seek to improve my current strength and increase my confidence to face the B in the top battle.
Russ and Robin had long been accustomed to their captain practicing behind closed doors every three days.
Obviously his strength is beyond the limit, but every time their captain always feels that he is not strong enough, or that the enemy is stronger than him.
What's even more unacceptable to Robin and the others is that every time Wood disappears for ten days and a half, his already ridiculously powerful strength will become more or less stronger.
Other strong men on the sea, once their strength reaches a certain limit, will encounter something like a bottleneck, causing their strength improvement to enter a slow period.
But their captain is good. Even though he is already extremely strong, he is still getting stronger, and there is no so-called bottleneck at all. Getting stronger is as simple as eating and drinking.
Robin and Ruth have followed Wood for so many years, and naturally they also know that the secret of Wood becoming stronger is related to what he did while locked in the room.
But they never asked about it because it was Wood's own secret.
As beings who are extremely loyal to Wood, they not only will not try to find out Wood's secrets, but will even help him cover up and guard against them.
Whenever Wood enters the room, Robin and Ruth will protect the room in their own way.
Only those who are attentive will find that Ruth, who usually likes to be lazy, would hang out outside Wood's room from time to time, making excuses to take a walk.
Although Robin rarely appears, the many "eyes and ears" derived from his many flowers and fruits often appear in every corner outside the room, always vigilant and monitoring everyone who passes by.
