After the words fell, Porusalino held the wine glass and skillfully crossed his legs.
While he was sipping the drink, Luffy, who was chewing a pork chop not far away, couldn't help but raise his head.
"White beard, black beard, hey hey.
The nicknames of these two people match perfectly, so can I call you Huang Hu..."
boom!!!
Before Luffy could finish his words, Ace had already raised his black fist and hit him with a Love Interruption Technique.
"Luffy, don't interrupt the conversation, don't you see that the uncle and the dirty uncle are talking about business?"
After the words fell, Ace hugged Luffy, who was rubbing his head, and whispered into his ear.
"Hurry up and eat. After eating, I will take you to a good place.
I recently chatted with Uncle Musgarud's kid for a lot of time, and the boy told me a secret.
There is treasure in Mary Joy, and every Draco child in Mary Joy has a chance to hunt for it!
How about you just eat quietly, and then we can go over together and join in the fun!
Maybe the three of us will get the treasure that Marie Joa’s group of children have been unable to find for hundreds of years!”
After saying that, Ace looked at Luffy's excited eyes with satisfaction.
He patted Luffy on the head one last time, and Luffy quickly opened his big rubber mouth and stuffed all the nearby plates into his mouth.
After chewing crazily, Luffy opened his mouth and spat out, and the plates fell out with a clatter.
"I've eaten, let's go, go!
Why didn't you tell us such a big thing earlier? Why didn't you tell us earlier, Ace!
Let’s leave quickly!!!”
Luffy couldn't wait and pulled Ace away, leaving only the others near them, staring at the remaining plates with big eyes and small eyes...
In the distance, Robin couldn't help covering his mouth and started laughing.
Nami wiped her forehead in displeasure.
"Oh, how can you eat so impolitely!
Putting all the plates in your mouth, it looks so dirty!
But...but I emphasize!!!"
Nami turned around and raised her index finger to the maids, emphasizing.
"No matter what, don't change those plates!
It's just a plate. If it's washed, it's really clean. Even if we live in Mariejoia, we can't just waste a small amount of money!
In short, it’s all Luffy’s fault!!!”
After saying that, Nami lowered her head depressedly and mentally calculated the expenses that Marigio needed for her quarterly living.
In the distance, looking at Nami who was full of energy, Gawain chuckled.
"These brats, haha, I really envy them this easy life.
Not only me, but Newgate should be more envious, because he loves children more than me.
As for the things you said..."
Gawain was seen thinking for a moment, then he turned to Porusalino and narrowed his eyes.
"Porushalino, you said so-called worry, but I didn't see any fearful expression on your face.
So, you just care about my opinion on Blackbeard getting the Dark Fruit, right?"
"Of course I'm worried, haha, after all, the situation in the sea has been basically determined after a year of development.
My Lord, you are located near the Shampoo Islands, and control the gateway to the Red Continent in the Grand Line, including Fish-Man Island.
As for Whitebeard, his Mobydick cruised across the Red Earth Continent.
Although he has no practical attitude, no matter what, he guards the gateway to the Red Earth Continent in this area of the New World.
Therefore, in the eyes of our navy, the balance between you and Whitebeard is of course a crucial matter.
What do you think?"
Kizaru curled his lips, waiting obscenely for Gawain's answer.
Facing Kizaru's expression that showed no sign of expectation at all, Gawain smiled slightly and forked the steak in front of him.
"Stop making trouble, Porusalino, think about it carefully, when did the power between Newgate and I have been balanced?
In the early days when I first went to sea, the combined strength was not as good as Newgate.
Now, I am not being ashamed of my words. Compared with him alone, my strength should be far superior to his.
You see, why do two forces that have never been balanced in strength create conflicts over the subsequent imbalance?
There is no conflict between him and me, and even if there is, the conflict only exists in our identities and positions."
After finishing his words, Gawain picked up the steak, took a bite and chewed it naturally.
The tender touch of the steak caused a hopeful emotion to burst into Gawain's mouth.
Obviously, this is a dish cooked by Sanji. Only a young man like him can make a dish full of hope.
Of course Zhepu's cooking skills are better than Sanji's, but the emotion in Zhepu's dishes is more about the nostalgia for happiness and the reminiscence of the past.
On the side, looking at Gawain who was having a meal, Kizaru nodded slightly.
"Indeed, sir, as you said, the strength of the two of you has always been unbalanced.
But the past is different from the past. At least in the eyes of our navy, the future between you and him is destined to be far different from the past.
I learned that it won’t be long before your footsteps will lead to a new world.
Until then, your identity will be different from the previous Tianlong people.
When you have not set foot in the new world, even if you are a soaring dragon, you will not let the emperor whom the pirates call you react for you.
A dragon that can never harm them might be treated as an ornament by those arrogant trash.
But then, I don’t think that after you go to the new world, you will come back without doing anything.
By then, you, the dragon, will be able to bite their flesh!"
Having said this, Porusalino paused for a moment, waiting for Gawain to swallow the meat steak.
But unexpectedly, after Gawain swallowed the steak, he didn't say anything and continued to sip the wine.
Seeing this, Kizaru's eyebrows drooped slightly.
He bent down slightly and pretended to speak in a low voice, but in fact, his voice remained unchanged as he continued to speak to Gawain.
"Sir, even if you are a Celestial Dragon, they cannot allow you to challenge their so-called authority.
Although I don't think their bunch of rubbish should have any authority, they still have two abilities after all.
If those pampered pirates in the New World really do something to you, and Whitebeard has no choice but to take action against you.
Then, the dark fruit will be a big trouble!"
"So can you say something more important, Porusalino?"
Hearing this, Gawain raised his hand to interrupt Kizaru's words.
"What you just said is nothing more than hoping that I would take some action against the Newgate pirates.
This is not good, Porusalino, you should not let me think that you are thinking that I can be used by you!
So, give up those complicated words and let me know your attitude!
When I return to Mariejoia, you hope that I will challenge the position of the Five Elders and promote me from Saint Gawain to Saint Gawain!
Now, you want me to raise the flag, blow the horn, and lead you to attack the old pirate emperor in the new world!
In the final analysis, you are all longing for war. Even if these wars are all beneficial to me, it cannot change the nature of your desire for war!
So, answer me, whether you or Sakaski, do you really need a war that much!!!"
After the words fell, Gawain put the cup in his hand on the table.
despair!!!
There was a crisp sound.
Obviously, Gao Wen's action of putting the cup was not very heavy, but this sound was the only one that struck everyone's heart in the whole room.
The surroundings were so quiet at this moment, so quiet that Doflamingo couldn't help but sit upright.
Even Bai Xing carefully held up his tail, trying hard to prevent himself from being so excited that he started to blow in the wind.
As for the other side, after listening to Gawain's words, Kizaru's eyebrows became lower and lower, and the corners of his mouth showed a deeper and more lewd smile.
While laughing, Kizaru shook his head.
"No no no."
he said.
"Why do we desire war, Lord Gawain!
Rather than saying that we long for war, let us imagine something more grand!
We have already surpassed the level of war, and what we long for is not the process, but the result!
As you can see, Sakaski and I have been chatting a lot lately!
He believes that with your all-round leadership and help, the countless additional combatants and navy can completely end the existence of the Four Emperors in this era!
He is too arrogant and reckless, and he never thinks about how many people will die in such a war, but I agree with the results Sakaski said!!!"
Having said this, Kizaru stood up with a smile and bowed lightly to Gawain.
"Sir, as I said, everyone in the navy who is determined to serve the World Government has been looking forward to this victory for too long!
And you, let’s not talk about the troops you have not yet fully formed, but only talk about the high-level combat power you have now!
You have in your hands, including you, at least four people with combat power that are infinitely close to the strength of a general, and at the same time, there are more than ten outstanding personnel who far exceed the strength of most lieutenant generals!
Your accumulation in this area is almost the same as that of the navy on the surface. If we get your help, we can indeed try to use troops against the four emperors at the same time!!!
Nowadays, red-haired Shanks... is in a special situation, but in any case, his strength has not yet reached its peak.
Kaido and Charlotte Lingling, both of them have also become corrupted. One is addicted to Oden's influence and seeks inspiration to defeat death, and the other has long been controlled by the addiction to gluttony, and his fighting power is not as good as before.
As for Newgate, Newgate is getting old and his combat power must have declined.
It’s just that under this situation, the new ecosystem of pirates is constantly growing, especially since Whitebeard’s son has regained the power code of Rocks!”
Having said this, Kizaru looked around in a circle, facing the dictatorial eyes of everyone around him, and continued to speak seriously.
"In short, Sakaski believes that if the pirates cannot be pursued and intercepted in this era, then when their respective descendants grow up, they themselves can barely be full of fighting power.
By that time, the energy required to solve them is destined to double.
Combined with your plan to block the Grand Line, it is very likely that they will attack in groups after they continue to develop for a few years.
Therefore, it’s time for us to descend from the sky and take the initiative when no one else has time to react!
Taking the initiative into our own hands as much as possible is what we should do most, isn't it?"
At this point, Kizaru seemed to have said enough. He stood there in silence and looked at Gawain tepidly.
As for Gawain, he thought about what Kizaru had just said and fell silent.
moment.
Two moments.
In the blink of an eye, Gawain reached out to Hancock.
Hancock nodded, then dug into his chest, took out a cigarette and put it in Gawain's hand.
The thunder lit the smoke, and the curling smoke soaked Gawain's face.
In the smoke, Gawain exhaled and smiled.
"Today, you have no intention of getting the answer.
Also, rather than saying that you are the one asking me the question, it is better to say that the person expecting my answer is Sakaski!
If I guess correctly, tomorrow or tonight at the latest.
Sakaski will also be a guest of my family.
His attitude must be much tougher than yours, and his desire is bound to be a bit more passionate than yours, haha."
While laughing, Gawain took a satisfied puff of his cigarette. After blowing out a smoke ring, he flicked the ashes and continued.
"So, if I don't want to be bombarded by that Sakaski guy's loud voice, I should have a good chat with you.
Porusalino, you told me that you need a real victory, so while you are thinking this, have you ever thought about what I need?"
Having said this, Gawain raised his head, his eyebrows moved frivolously, and his gaze was immediately fixed on Kizaru's face.
At this moment, there was a faint sound of falling.
Many birds passing nearby were stunned for a moment and fell for at least ten meters in a daze before regaining consciousness.
"Sir, how could we not consider you? For you, don't you also lack a real victory to lay the foundation for you to become Saint Gawain?
At least that's what Sakaski thinks, haha.
As for me, you know me. I only do what I should do during work. I don’t think so far-reaching or macroscopically.
In short, if you don’t like what we say, then we naturally understand your decision and will absolutely obey your orders.”
At this point, Kizaru held up the teacup again. This time he slowly came to Gawain and respectfully placed the teacup in front of Gawain.
Looking at the steaming tea in front of him, Gawain took a sip of tea aroma and then nodded lightly.
"I know, haha, I would actually make such a mistake.
Porusalino, please forgive me for my little temper. I seemed to have forgotten something just now.
Look around, look at the people around me, they have never been as eager to do something as you are waiting for the navy.
It's not that they are better than you, it's that they understand me better than you.
I have spoken to them countless times about what I longed for, and worked with them to consider the path to get there.
But unfortunately, in the past year, I have never had a thorough conversation with you, Sakaski and Kuzan.
On this basis, my development has caused you to misunderstand my intentions, but in any case, you are indeed working hard to make me more prominent.
Saint Gauvin!
Haha, this sounds really good, but what I want is never good.
Killing a few Yonko, what will change?
Just like you said, their sudden death only transformed into my achievements and the honor of your navy. While they allowed me to take a step higher, they also made you a little more relaxed and glorious.
They are not as important as they think, and their existence is not entirely due to their opportunities and efforts, but a certain necessity created by the era in which they live.
Go back and tell Sakaski.
Tell him, I am tearing apart the era that created the Pirate Emperor bit by bit.
Then let him think carefully, with the strength I have now, even if you add your navy.
Are we really qualified to tear down the curtain covering the sky and create a new future for the sea?"
