"Of course, but as a navy, you may not understand the moral principles between pirates."
Kizaru silently put down the teacup in his hand, his tone frivolous.
"The Four Emperors, 'Whitebeard' Edward Newgate, is a moral pirate. Ever since he became a pirate, he has not been interested in treasures, and he has no intention of looking for the One Piece during the great pirate era."
"According to what he said, all he wanted to do was to create a family on this sea. To take in those who were rejected by the world, so he also has many pirate groups under his banner."
"Now, even though he is called 'the strongest man in the world', and Whitebeard's name is resounding all over the world, he has always stayed in the New World honestly, and with our navy, we are also 'I will not offend others unless they offend me'
Attitude."
"In general, he is easier to get along with than the other three sea emperors."
"I really don't know what you're talking about. When I heard the legend about Whitebeard in the South China Sea, I almost described him as a complete monster."
Esdeath said with some surprise.
"but……"
Esdeath stared at the smiling Kizaru.
"Old man, you brought the topic to Whitebeard from the beginning. Is there any big move by the Whitebeard Pirates?"
"Oh, I've been discovered." Kizaru pretended to be surprised.
"It's so obvious, who can't see it?" Zhan Taowan said at the side.
"Since you heard it, I'll tell you clearly." Kizaru pulled out a document from the drawer.
"Yesterday, on Banaro Island in the Grand Line, the Captain of the Blackbeard Pirates, Marshall D. Teach, defeated the Captain of the Second Division of the Whitebeard Pirates, Portcas D. Ace."
"So the Whitebeard Pirates are going after Teach?" Esdeath said expressionlessly.
As the first prey to escape from his hands, Teach was naturally not surprised to be able to defeat Esdeath. But when he heard his name, his good mood was instantly wiped out.
"No, isn't he being hunted all the time? Could it be that..."
"Sa, it seems you have already thought of it." Kizaru's toad mirror flashed, "Marshall D. Teach handed Ace over to the World Government, and he also gave information that the World Government could not refuse.
.So, after many discussions between the World Government and the headquarters, they still chose to take Portcas D. Ace into custody.”
"So last night, the headquarters urgently ordered Brigadier General Smoker, Colonel Tina and Lieutenant Colonel August Annan to go to Banaro Island to escort Portcas D. Ace to the underwater prison.
Impel Down City. Now, these are top secrets. In order to prevent the leakage of information, even the naval officer responsible for the escort did not know about this mission in advance."
"So, you should be aware of the current situation, Esdeath." Kizaru's tone became a little serious.
"I asked why Annan was suddenly ordered to leave yesterday. I didn't expect it was for this matter." Esdeath frowned slightly.
"If we choose to take Portcas D. Ace into custody, the Whitebeard Pirates will come to us and cause trouble. If Ace is handed over, the pressure of the World Government and even our navy will be affected. Now this headquarters has chosen
The former... we are about to break out into a war with the 'Emperor of the Sea'."
"That's great, I know I didn't come here in vain."
Esdeath said with excitement on her face, "Being able to fight against the Four Emperors makes my blood boil with excitement just thinking about it."
"I know your character, and our headquarters will not waste your high-end combat power, so you will definitely participate this time."
Kizaru said to Esdeath, "Your status will be greatly improved after the war, and the elite team plan you proposed to me yesterday will be implemented smoothly."
"Status is very important. Without status, it will be inconvenient to do many things. You are now a colonel. Even if you don't have the freedom of movement I gave you, you still have a lot of freedom to learn from Smog. But no matter what the school-level officer is,
There are limits to willfulness.”
"If you step into the general level, and I'm here to support you, you can basically do whatever you want."
"For example, units such as elite squads that are almost impossible to exist in the navy will become a reality."
"Really? Then I will try my best." Esdeath smiled, "Thank you, old man."
"You're welcome."
Kizaru held the tea cup with a smile, "As long as you participate, everything you want will come true."
"But."
Esdeath leaned back on the chair, "Now it's hard for me to defeat Whitebeard. I've decided not to go out on a cruise these days and stay at the headquarters to train hard."
"Oh, defeat Whitebeard? Young people today are really scary. When I was your age, I was still discussing science with Dr. Vegapunk."
A trace of joy flashed in Kizaru's eyes. If Esdeath worked so hard, he would be able to fish without any guilt.
"Old man, please stop being modest. Your name of 'monster' has resounded throughout the navy." Esdeath stood up and looked at Zhan Momomaru.
"Zhan Momomaru, where are your pacifists? Take me to see them."
