The moonlight was bright.
The night fell on the sea.
The Whitebeard Pirates held a grand banquet in order to celebrate their victory and obtain the Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit). It was not until late at night that it ended.
The entire Moby Dick was full of drunk pirates.
Even Marco and the other captains who had just rushed back drank a few cups after hearing about Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit). Even Whitebeard put down the juice and was allowed to drink a few bowls of wine.
Unfortunately…
Sasuke still refused to drink.
Even though he had passed the threshold of twenty years old and was at the age where he could drink in the ninja world, he still insisted on drinking juice.
Sasuke stood on the bow of the Moby Dick and slowly sipped the juice in his hand. He then heard footsteps coming to him.
"Is it Teach?"
Sasuke still looked at the moonlight reflected on the sea and said softly, "Go up and rest tonight. I'll help you keep watch tonight…"
"Zehahaha, it doesn't matter…"
Teach walked to Sasuke's side and grinned with a simple and honest smile, "Today, Sasuke's battle was very hard… Anyway, I don't need to sleep at night. I've been standing guard on Moby Dick for twenty years!"
Teach never needed to sleep.
This matter was not a secret in the entire Whitebeard Pirates.
For twenty years, Marshall D. Teach had been working hard and doing the night duty on Moby Dick. He had always been popular with Whitebeard Pirates. Even Whitebeard was generous with Teach.
In fact…
Teach was actually afraid that when he was dreaming, he would say some words and arouse Whitebeard Pirates' suspicion.
This guy was extremely cautious.
"Zehahaha…"
Teach glanced at Sasuke and asked curiously, "Because we found Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) today, and you will reunite with Mr. Itachi soon, so Sasuke can't sleep tonight?"
"No…"
Sasuke shook his head and slowly squeezed the juice cup in his hand. He said in a low voice, "I just don't understand why that person wanted Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)…
That person never does useless work. Everything he does is trying to benefit himself. Unfortunately, I feel that he doesn't need Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s power, so why did he want that fruit?"
"Who knows…"
Teach scratched his hair and took a bite of cherry pie. He laughed and said, "Maybe he is just curious!"
"There is indeed a possibility…"
Sasuke nodded and frowned slightly, "That guy does seem to have a strange collecting habit and always likes to collect some strange things…"
Uehara really liked to collect things.
However, the things he collected were often a little scary, such as Konoha Four Kage, such as Kirigakure Seven Ninja Swordsman, such as the Three Marine Admiral, such as Uchiha Itachi, Uchiha Obito, and Uchiha Madara of their Uchiha Clan…
Sasuke had a faint feeling that if his life were exhausted, Uehara would probably revive him and add him to his collection…
The troublesome thing was…
Even if Sasuke died and his body was cremated, it would be useless. Maybe Uehara had already collected enough materials.
It was really an incomprehensible hobby.
Teach nodded along with Sasuke's words and said with a smile, "Anyway, Thatch will definitely exchange Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) for Mr. Itachi. Our 2nd Division will have another new member soon!"
"I will stop him."
After frowning, Sasuke sighed again, "Forget it; I will go to rest first. Teach, sorry to trouble you."
"Zehahaha, it doesn't matter!"
Teach shook his head and said happily, "Sasuke, rest early! Seeing that everyone is so happy, maybe there will be another banquet tomorrow!"
"…"
Sasuke seemed to be a little speechless.
However, Sasuke did not curse at him as he did before. He returned to his room to rest.

After Sasuke left.
Teach clenched his fists, and his eyes revealed a trace of fierceness. His smile was almost unable to be suppressed, "Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)… Akatsuki's leader wants to get Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit); of course, it's because of Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s power!"
This was a matter of course!
Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) was the most evil fruit in this world!
Teach has been hiding in Whitebeard Pirates for so many years for the sake of Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit). He has an unimaginable admiration and dedication for Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)!
Teach understood very well that the leader of the Akatsuki Organization wanted to get Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) because he also thought so!
The sky was getting darker and darker.
The moonlight still fell on the Moby Dick.
Teach's figure came out of the door of Thatch's room. There was an evil smile on his face, and there was a dark shadow under his feet.
Teach carefully walked in and looked up to see Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit), who was placed on the table by Thatch. Obviously, this 4th Division Captain trusted his companion very much.
Unfortunately…
There was an ambitious man on this ship.
Teach almost couldn't wait to grab the box. His face was full of greed and madness!
Just as Teach grabbed the box and was about to leave, a voice shocked Teach, "What's the matter? If you're hungry, there's a supper for you in the kitchen…"
Thatch, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes.
The 4th Division Captain couldn't help rubbing his eyes and looking at the figure that suddenly appeared in his room; a touch of surprise flashed on his face, "Huh? Teach?"
The next moment, Thatch saw the box where the Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) was stored in Teach's hand, and a touch of astonishment flashed on his face.
"Wait… Teach, what are you doing!"
"…"
Teach's expression stiffened.
This man, who had been hiding for twenty years, knew very well that Thatch absolutely could not alarm everyone on this ship at this time. Otherwise, he would not be able to escape Whitebeard Pirates' pursuit!
Especially Sasuke!
What greeted Thatch…
It was a sharp sword!
Teach's palm suddenly covered Thatch's mouth. He picked up a sword and inserted it into Thatch's chest. His arm trembled little by little!
"Zehahaha… haha…"
Teach could not believe what he had done. A hint of fear and uneasiness flashed across his face. He forced a smile to hide his shock, "Zehahaha… haha… Thatch… I'm really sorry… I didn't mean to…"
Whitebeard Pirates' iron law…
They absolutely could not hurt their companions on their ship!
It did not matter even if he defected and left Whitebeard Pirates, but the iron law of harming his companions absolutely could not be violated!
Teach gritted his teeth and released Thatch. His palm grabbed Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s box and left.
Thatch could not believe it…
The person who hurt him was actually Teach!
Taking advantage of the night
Teach put down a small boat and fled the scene in a hurry. Because the entire Moby Dick had a grand banquet, many pirates were drunk, and no one noticed his escape.
Only one person was different.
Sasuke was not dead asleep.
Sasuke could not help but open his eyes. His chakra perception and Kenbunshoku Haki(Observation Haki) silently spread and quickly enveloped the entire Moby Dick.
In the next moment, Sasuke quickly jumped out of the ship!
Sasuke's figure quickly came out of Thatch's room. He also saw the bloody Thatch, who was on the verge of dying. A touch of astonishment flashed in his eyes…
"Marco!"
A loud shout resounded throughout the entire Moby Dick!
The people on the Moby Dick instantly woke up, and the pirates who heard the sound rushed to Thatch's room.

Late at night.
The ship doctor, Marco, gave Thatch medicine and said, "Thatch's injuries are too serious. There is no other way… Sasuke, what is going on?"
"I don't know yet."
Sasuke frowned and suddenly turned to look at everyone, "Huh? Where is Teach? Isn't he keeping watch tonight?"
"Teach… is missing…"
A pirate squeezed in with an ugly expression and whispered, "Marco, Sasuke, we also have one less lifeboat…"
"It's Teach!"
Thatch weakly opened his eyes. A bitter smile appeared on his face, and blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth, "Teach… he stole Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)… Sasuke, you must chase him back. That Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) is Mr. Itachi's freedom!"
"What a joke!"
Ace couldn't help but reveal a touch of surprise.
Sasuke was somewhat in disbelief. All the pirates present had a flash of doubt on their faces. They also didn't believe that Teach would do such a thing.
How could Teach, the guy who had always been honest in the 2nd Division, rob Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) and even have the courage to hurt Thatch?
That was the senior member of Whitebeard Pirates!
Moreover, Teach even gave up the chance to become the Division Captain. How could he possibly hurt Thatch and snatch Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) away!
"That guy…"
Sasuke felt his scalp go numb. At this moment, he could not help but have a bad premonition about Teach escaping with Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit).
Whitebeard also soon knew what happened on the ship. After the old man looked at Thatch's injury, his face finally showed a touch of pain.
He really didn't expect…
After so many years, Whitebeard Pirates will have a traitor who would violate the iron law of the ship, which made the Whitebeard a little sad.
What made this old man even more sad was…
Thatch, the child who had been by his side for so many years, had actually died in the hands of a traitor tonight.
"Marco, you first stabilize Thatch's injuries…"
Sasuke looked at Whitebeard, whose face was full of pain, and the people around him who were gradually becoming sad. He said in a low voice, "Let's think of a way to save Thatch first!"
"Sasuke…"
Marco looked confused.
Everyone could not help but look at Sasuke in confusion.
"Marco, how much longer can Thatch hold on?"
Sasuke gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "Let's hurry to Wano Country now. The medical ninjas in Akatsuki Organization will definitely be able to save Thatch!"
Even if those medical ninjas can't save him…
Uehara would definitely be able to do it!
In Uehara's hands, life and death had already become his toys. As long as Uehara was willing to make a move, he would definitely be able to save Thatch.
"…"
Everyone could not help but reveal a hint of doubt and astonishment.
Wano Country was located in the Beast Pirates sea region. If they go there, a war with Beast Pirates was inevitable. Moreover, the relationship between Akatsuki and Whitebeard Pirates, which was entrenched in Wano Country, was very subtle…
However, when Sasuke called his brother Itachi overnight and told him that someone was seriously injured here and needed the help of the medical ninja.
"Who is injured?"
Itachi could not help but be surprised.
Sasuke suppressed the emotions in his voice and whispered, "It's the cook on our ship, Thatch. I think only the medical ninja can save him. It's best if it's Tsunade or that person…"
"Is that so…"
There was a hint of hesitation in Itachi's voice. He asked calmly, "Sasuke, you should know the price of saving people, right?"
"Nii-san."
Sasuke clenched his Den Den Mushi tightly and said in a low voice, "Please tell him that if Thatch dies from serious injuries, I can also use Rinnegan to resurrect him. It's just one life for another!"
"Sasuke, don't do anything stupid."
After a moment of silence, Itachi said, "That person can make a move and let Thatch survive, but you have to give Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) to him…"
"We agree."
Sasuke slowly breathed a sigh of relief.

On a small island.
The Moby Dick stopped.
Whitebeard Pirates' members saw the medical ninja sent by Akatsuki. When everyone saw the medical ninja, their faces revealed a strange expressions.
When Sasuke saw the medical ninja, his expression was slightly stiff. He unconsciously began to tidy up his somewhat messy clothes.
Over the past few years, Sasuke gradually got used to the pirate's unruly behavior.
However, when Sasuke saw this medical ninja, he still remembered the time when he was a teenager in Konoha.
"Sasuke, do you know her?"
Ace could not help but push Sasuke with his shoulder and ask, "Pink hair… It's a cute girl. Is she the medical ninja sent by Akatsuki?"
"Yes, it's her."
Sasuke walked to the medical ninja step by step and narrowed his eyes, "It's been a long time, Sakura… I didn't expect them to send you here."
Haruno Sakura.
Konoha's Team 7, a former companion.
Even Sasuke did not think that Uehara would actually send Sakura over. Did that guy want to use Sakura to humiliate him?
"En, Sasuke-kun."
Sakura nodded slowly and said in a low voice, "You should know the situation of the Akatsuki Organization better than me. No one can refuse the order from Akatsuki… Moreover…"
At this point, Sakura raised his head to look at Sasuke. He suddenly said, "I also want to see how you are doing on this sea…"
"I'm fine."
Sasuke nodded calmly.
This sea was under the threat of Uehara, and there were also members of the Akatsuki Organization who appeared at all times. It was already not easy for them to survive, right?
"That's good."
Sakura nodded and said softly, "Where is the patient? I'll go and treat him first!"
"Yes, Thatch's injury is very serious…"
As Sasuke led the way, he said, "Sakura, I remember that you are the student of Konoha Fifth Hokage Tsunade…"
"En."
Sakura suddenly became serious, "The medical department has recently received a lot of new medical treatment methods. There shouldn't be a problem…"
On the Moby Dick.
Sakura stitched up the wounds on Thatch's body again and gave Thatch a few injections. Finally, she used chakra to make the wounds on Thatch's body sprout flesh slowly.
"It's really incredible…"
Marco watched this scene from the beginning to the end. Under the treatment of Sakura, Thatch's injuries gradually improved, and a hint of admiration flashed across his face.
The medical ninja's treatment method was indeed unexpected.
Even Marco did not expect that there was such a method that could stimulate the regeneration of human cells and treat people.
Unfortunately, Marco did not have any chakra.
Even in the ninja world, only the descendants of Otsutsuki Kaguya or the descendants who the Sage of the Six Paths shared chakra before could extract chakra.
Sakura wiped the sweat on her forehead, looked at Thatch, who was gradually breathing steadily and said in a low voice, "His injuries have stabilized. As long as he can ensure a good rest, there will be no problems in the future."
"What a magical medical treatment…"
Ace couldn't help but show a touch of admiration on his face. He looked at Sasuke beside him and couldn't help but say, "Hey, Sasuke, I feel that this ship doctor is much more reliable than Marco!"
"Shut up!"
Sasuke frowned and interrupted Ace. He looked at Sakura and thanked him sincerely, "Thank you, Sakura. Thatch is my companion…"
Before he could finish his sentence, Sasuke fell into silence. The Sakura in front of him was once his companion…
Sasuke's mood became more and more complicated.
Sakura's fingers were slightly stiff. She nodded calmly, grabbed her medical kit, and slowly lowered her head, "It doesn't matter. If Sasuke can find a new companion, everyone will be happy for you…"
Plop.
A drop of tears fell.
All the pirates in the medical room were at a loss. They didn't understand why this pink-haired medical ninja would cry…
Just as the group of pirates looked at each other, planning to let someone comfort the girl. Sakura wiped the corners of her eyes.
"Well, my mission is over."
Sakura slowly stood up, looked at Sasuke, and said in a deep voice, "Before I came, someone specially told me that according to our agreement, Whitebeard Pirates must find Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) and send it to Wano Country in two months."
As she said this, Sakura repeated word by word, "Remember, it has to be Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)! Otherwise… Sasuke knows the consequences of not being able to fulfill the agreement."
This sentence was heavily explained.
If Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) were eaten by Marshall D. Teach, they would have to kill Teach and start searching for Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) in the sea.
This was really like looking for a needle in a haystack…
Finding Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) in two months, Whitebeard Pirates might as well hope that Marshall D. Teach didn't eat it!
"Oh…"
Marco scratched his head and couldn't help but want to bargain, "Little girl if Teach or someone ate Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit), we will send him to Wano Country…"
"If that's the case, Akatsuki doesn't need Whitebeard Pirates anymore. I don't need to come here to help with the treatment."
Sakura then shook her head, and her voice gradually became a little low, "Sasuke should know that catching a devil fruit user is not a difficult thing for Akatsuki…"
"Mm…"
Sasuke's expression was slightly grave. He frowned and said, "Looks like that guy really gave us a huge problem… Now we can only see luck, right?"
"Gurararara…"
Whitebeard could not help but smile. He looked down at Thatch, who was on the bed, and said, "At least Thatch was saved! I will remember this favor, regardless of whether I find the fruit or not…"
"Uh…"
Sakura's face was slightly awkward. She could not help but say, "According to our agreement, no matter what happens in the world. Whitebeard Pirates must find that Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) in two months and send it to Wano Country…"
"Sakura…"
Sasuke frowned more and more tightly. He asked in a low voice, "That guy means that we must give it to him. If he gets Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) first, it will be regarded as us breaking the agreement, right?"
"… Yes."
Sakura nodded slowly.
"Hey, what kind of logic is this!"
Jozu couldn't help but shout, "Didn't you say that as long as you get Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit), it's enough?"
"Yes!"
Vista also had a serious look on their faces, "If you say so, what if you obstruct us from getting rid of that traitor Teach?"
"If that really is the case…"
Izo's expression was also a little ugly. He did not have a good impression of these enemies who had invaded and occupied Wano Country, "It sounds like this method is really despicable…"
"Shut up!"
Whitebeard glared at the agitated captain, then turned to look at Sakura. He grinned and said, "Gurararara… Akatsuki's leader is really interesting!
If he had gotten Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) before us, we would have to snatch it from his hands and then give it to him. It could be considered completing the agreement, right?
"…"
Sakura couldn't help but take a step back.
Sasuke stood in front of Whitebeard and looked at Sakura. He continued, "Sakura, is that guy's conditions harsh to this extent? Is it impossible for Whitebeard Pirates and Akatsuki to cooperate with each other to find Teach and Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)?"
"That…"
Sakura grabbed her medical kit tightly and said in a low voice, "Sasuke, have you been here for too long? When did Akatsuki cooperate with others…"
When Sakura said this, she continued, "Before I came, someone specially told me to tell you not to do anything stupid… You should know the gap between Whitebeard Pirates and Akatsuki, right?"
"Hey, you Akatsuki are looking down on people too much!"
"We are the strongest pirate group in the world!"
"A mere organization that hides its head and shows its tail…"
"Just an ally of Kaido…"
"…"
Sasuke's expression was ugly.
Was the gap between Whitebeard Pirates and Akatsuki large?
Sakura was really not insulting people. To be honest, the gap between the two was not ordinary.
Whether it was from the top level, middle level, or bottom level of the entire Whitebeard Pirates, including all the pirates under the banner, they were definitely not the opponent of Akatsuki.
The periphery member of Akatsuki, the Beast Pirates, was also Yonko(Four Emperors) pirate group like Whitebeard Pirates, and this was just one of Akatsuki's armed forces.
"Speaking of which…"
Marco waved his hand to stop the captains and looked at Sakura curiously, "Your Akatsuki leader sounds like a really unreasonable person… Doesn't he worry that we won't keep our promise?"
"Hahahaha… Marco is really bad!"
"But Marco is right!"
"Little girl, we are pirates!"
"Little girl, pirates may not fulfill any agreement. Although we, Whitebeard Pirates, will fulfill the agreement. Our swords are also very sharp!"
"Don't say anymore!"
Sasuke's eyes suddenly turned red. He coldly looked at the captains present and said in a deep voice, "Vista, Sakura is a medical ninja who came to help save Thatch… What do you mean?"
At this moment…
Sasuke was undoubtedly using his Haki right now!
Anyone couldn't help but feel a little shocked!
Whitebeard reached out his palm and rubbed Sasuke's hair, softly comforting his emotions, "Sasuke, put away your Haki. It doesn't matter if you scare this group of silly sons. Don't scare our guests…"
After saying that, Whitebeard looked at Sakura and grinned, "Gurararara… I'm really sorry. My sons are too rude!"
This Yonko(Four Emperors) was really like a father.
Because Whitebeard was using his father's identity to apologize to his disappointing sons to Sakura, this medical ninja.
Just like the other fathers…
"… It doesn't matter.
Sakura bit her lips, shook her head, and said in a deep voice, "If Whitebeard Pirates can't fulfill the agreement… Although that person didn't tell me the consequences, I think Sasuke should understand."
When Sakura said this, he looked at Sasuke with a hint of worry in his eyes, "Sasuke, did you threaten that person? Or did you… accidentally say something excessive to him?"
"… I was worried about Thatch's injury at that time. "
Sasuke's expression couldn't help but become even uglier.
According to his guess, Uehara was probably being petty again. He had deliberately raised this condition to target him and Whitebeard Pirates… It was also possible that Uehara was looking for a reason to target Whitebeard Pirates!
But it had already begun!
No matter what, there was no room for negotiation!
Uehara transferred Sakura from the ninja world to help save Thatch, and the game of life that he started to control was destined to be irreversible.
The only chance for Whitebeard Pirates to win was to immediately find Marshall D. Teach and pray that he had not eaten the fruit yet and take back the Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) that he had stolen!
"Sakura."
Sasuke looked at Sakura and said seriously, "Thank you for saving Thatch. Please go back and tell that person that I will seriously fulfill this agreement!"
"No…"
Whitebeard stretched out his hand and patted Sasuke's shoulder, "Whitebeard will fulfill his promise!"
Whitebeard turned to look at Sakura and couldn't help but grin, "Gurararara… Since that guy doesn't want this old man's favor. Little girl, then this favor will be on you!"
"No, no, no…"
Sakura hurriedly waved her hand, and her expression was a little awkward, "Actually, there is no need for that. I am only here to carry out a mission…"
"It doesn't matter! Anyway, I have already remembered it."
When he said this, Whitebeard smiled and continued, "No matter what you want to do, we will help you. If you want to pick a husband from this ship, I will agree… Gurararara…"

Moby Dick.
Sakura left shyly.
Sasuke said goodbye to Sakura and returned to the ship.
The pirates on the ship looked at Sasuke, and everyone couldn't help but look at Sasuke and whistle. The whole Moby Dick was full of joy.
After Whitebeard pointed out, most of the pirates could see the relationship between Sasuke and Sakura.
Sasuke couldn't help but frown. He looked at Whitebeard and said, "Hey, old man, don't talk nonsense!"
"Really?"
A smile appeared on Whitebeard's lips. He slowly shook his head and turned to look at Marco, who was beside him, "Gurararara… Marco, it's good to be young, right?"
"Yes, Pops!"
Marco could not help but smile.
The captains on the Moby Dick quickly surrounded Sasuke with smiles on their faces.
"Hey, Sasuke, when are you getting married?"
"The Moby Dick can hold a wedding anytime!"
"Even if you have a baby, it doesn't matter. We once had two little babies on this ship. We can help you take care of the children!"
"Miss Sakura is very cute. Get married immediately! You are already twenty years old, and you are already a mature adult!"
"…"
The captains mocked Sasuke one by one.
Even Ace could not help but laugh, "If the child is born, I will be his godfather!"
"You guys…"
Sasuke's expression was a little ugly. He could not help but hold his forehead and say, "Shut up first!"
"Oh, it's really strange…"
Ace wouldn't listen. He couldn't help but touch his chin. "I remember that Sasuke occasionally mentioned Miss Sakura. She seems to be your and Naruto's companion?"
To be honest…
It was all thanks to Naruto that Ace was able to remember it.
After all, if Sasuke mentioned people and according to the order, the highest would definitely be Akatsuki's leader(that person).
Generally, when Sasuke mentioned Akatsuki's leader, he would warn Ace not to speak ill of that person. But unfortunately, it would often have the opposite effect.
Secondly, it was because of the complicated relationship between Sasuke and Naruto. Once they talked about the past, they would definitely not be able to bypass that yellow-haired.
Next, naturally was Itachi. Occasionally, when Ace talked about his family with Sasuke, he would mention Itachi.
Sakura…
The number of times he appeared was very few. Usually, he would appear with Naruto, so Ace had never noticed the emotional problems between Sasuke and Sakura.
"Sakura and I used to be teammates…"
Sasuke's face became more and more ugly. He just responded with one sentence and angrily said, "Didn't I say, don't talk about this anymore!"
What does this make him say?
Do you want Sasuke to say that, in fact, when he was in Konoha's Ninja School, he was very popular among the girls, and Sakura was one of them…
It may also be the relatively important one.
"It's true. You are clearly…"
Marco shook his head helplessly. Just as he was about to continue speaking, he saw Sasuke's unhappy expression. He quickly changed the topic, "Alright, alright. Let's not talk about this anymore. Is there really no problem leaving Miss Sakura on that island?"
"No problem."
Sasuke nodded and said in a low voice, "That guy won't let his loyal subordinates get hurt. Maybe Sakura has already been taken away by now…"
When they were separated…
Sakura had already told him that Uehara was very dissatisfied with his behavior. Uehara thought that he had neglected his duties and did not report the news of Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) immediately.
But…
Everything still had not been concealed from Uehara.
That Uehara even knew that Teach had stolen Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)!
"Let's get down to business!"
Sasuke glanced at Whitebeard and said, "Old man, I will go after Teach and see if I can get Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) back… If Teach eats that fruit, I will kill that guy. You guys take advantage of this time to find the reborn Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)."
"Sasuke, let me go!"
Ace walked to Sasuke's side and said in a deep voice, "Teach is my division member. He has violated the iron law that can not be violated on this ship. I will catch him and bring him back!"
"Shut up!"
Sasuke glared at Ace.
This time, Ace didn't retreat like before. He only said in a low voice, "Sasuke, this is something I absolutely can not forgive myself… If I didn't ignore Teach's ambition, Thatch wouldn't have almost died."
"Ace, this is not your fault."
"That's right. No one would have thought that Teach would actually hurt his companions because of a devil fruit!"
"Don't blame yourself too much, Ace!"
"Sorry, everyone."
Ace took off his hat and said with a serious face, "Only this time, I want to make up for my mistake. My boat is the fastest, I can go by myself, and I will take Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) back immediately!"
As the captain of Whitebeard Pirates' 2nd Division, Ace's guilt in his heart made him have to stand up and take this responsibility.
If he did not ignore Teach…
Whitebeard Pirates wouldn't be in so much trouble either.
"Ace…"
There was some hesitation on Whitebeard's face.
The agreement between Whitebeard Pirates and Akatsuki must be fulfilled. No matter what, someone had to kill Marshall D. Teach.
But…
This matter was very troublesome.
Marshall D. Teach had been hiding in Whitebeard Pirates for so many years and had always pretended to be an honest person. No one could see through his thoughts.
Now it looks like…
That guy might be even more dangerous than they thought!
Whitebeard shook his head and said, "We will think of other ways in the next few days. Don't be too impatient, Ace…"
"Forget it; I will go with Ace!"
Sasuke looked at the stubborn Ace. As the former vice-captain of the Spade Pirates, Sasuke understood Ace's feelings very well.
Sasuke looked at Whitebeard and interrupted him, "Old man, we only have two months. Teach can eat Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) at any time. We can't waste any more time. Let's go!"
"Okay!"
Ace nodded.
Ace stretched out his finger, and a ball of fire flew out from his fingertip. He quickly burned the rope outside of the Moby Dick. A small boat powered by flame thrusters fell to the sea.
The two figures jumped into the air and landed on the small boat!
"Hey, Ace, Sasuke!"
"Wait for Pops to finish speaking!"
"You guys are too impatient!"
The captains rushed to stop them. But all they could see was a ripple of flames, and Ace's boat was already heading into the distance.
Whitebeard frowned. He slowly clenched his fist and said in a deep voice, "Marco, we can't stay idle either. Immediately issue orders to the other ships to hunt down Teach in the New World…"
"Yes!"
Marco nodded immediately.
He looked at Whitebeard and said, "Pops, don't worry too much. If Sasuke and Ace go together, the two of them won't have any trouble on the way…"
After all…
Sasuke had the same strength as Yonko(Four Emperors). Even the Marine Admiral wouldn't be his opponent!
"Okay."
Whitebeard shook his head, his expression still not very good.
Just as Sasuke and Ace set out to look for Marshall D. Teach, Uehara also received the news while he and Kizaru were still on their way to Marineford.
Uehara tapped his finger on the table and sighed softly, "It seems that I won't be staying in the marine for long…"
According to the information that Uehara had recently received, Marshall D. Teach, the man who controlled the war on the best, had already left Whitebeard Pirates. Uehara would definitely not let go of this leek.
According to Uehara's thoughts…
Marshall D. Teach was the perfect candidate for his No. 2 boss.
However, if he wants to join Teach's pirate group, he will need to waste a lot of effort. The most suitable place should be the Impel Down prison…
Kizaru didn't know what Uehara was thinking. He couldn't help but smile, "Oh… Mr. Uehara doesn't like to stay in the marine anymore?"
It would be better this way…
Otherwise, wouldn't he have to face two bosses all the time?
On the surface, his superior was the Marine Fleet Admiral Sengoku, and his superior in the dark was the leader of the Akatsuki Organization, Uehara Naraku. If the two bosses stayed together, it would be too much psychological pressure for this small Marine Admiral!
So, it was great that Uehara wanted to leave the marine!
"Yes, staying in the marine is meaningless."
Uehara sighed and continued, "Before I leave, I have to do something for the marine…"
"Is that so?"
Kizaru's eyes became subtle.
In fact, the marine doesn't need it at all. It's better to do nothing!
However, Uehara's requests were generally irresistible, whether he wanted to do good or bad things…
If someone dares to reject Uehara's good intentions…
It was said that the world would be full of malice toward that person!
Uehara thought for a while and suddenly looked at Kizaru, "Borsalino, if I help World Government catch Dragon, the leader of the revolutionary army, will the Five Elder Stars let me kill a few Celestial Dragon to make myself happy as a reward?"
"…"
There was some doubt in Kizaru's eyes.
What exactly was Uehara thinking?
Catch Dragon and kill a few Celestial Dragons?
Which side did Uehara want to stand on?
"There are some things I don't know if I should say or not…"
There was some hesitation on Kizaru's face, but he still said, "Dragon's situation is more complicated than I thought. If we want to catch him…"
"It doesn't matter…"
Uehara waved his hand again and said in a low voice, "If we can't catch Dragon, it doesn't matter if we catch the second-in-command of the revolutionary army!"
The corners of Uehara's mouth curled up as if he had thought of something happy. His fingers tapped the table bit by bit.
"It really makes me curious!"
The smile on Uehara's lips almost couldn't be suppressed, "I spent a bit of effort to restore that person's memory…"
"Who?"
Kizaru could not understand what Uehara meant.
"It won't be long before you know."
Uehara shook his head and said nothing. The frequency of his fingers knocking on the table gradually increased, and the smile on his mouth became more and more mysterious.
"Mr. Sabo, after you have recovered your memory, will you follow Mr. Dragon to Loguetown to see off your sworn brother to the Grandline?"

Marineford.
The Gates of Justice slowly opened.
A warship was driven by the ocean current to the port.
Aokiji stood by the window of Akainu's office, watching the warship stop at the port from a distance. He couldn't help but scratch his hair and turn to look at Akainu, who was still working hard to read the documents.
"Oh… Sakazuki, it seems that Borsalino has returned."
"Hmph, he came back at the right time…"
Akainu snorted slowly. He closed the folder in his hand and threw it on the table. He frowned in dissatisfaction, "I just finished processing the documents…"
Akainu put down the pen in his hand, stood up, and walked to the window, "So it looks like that person is here now, right?"
"Yes."
Aokiji nodded.
In Aokiji and Akainu's line of sight, they saw Kizaru coming down from the warship with a young man.
The young man seemed to notice the eyes of the two Marine Admirals. He raised his head and narrowed his eyes, showing them a warm smile.
It was Uehara Naraku.
This smile of Uehara…
They can't help but feel that he must be a good person…
"Let's go!"
Akainu couldn't help but clench his fists and said coldly, "I heard that Kabuto and Fleet Admiral Sengoku are waiting for him. What should come is still coming. Let's go and see what he wants to do in Marineford!"
"Well, it shouldn't be necessary, right?"
Aokiji scratched his hair and couldn't help but persuade his colleague, "Sakazuki, if he wants to do something, we can't stop him, right?"
Yeah…
In fact, they can't do anything.
When he said this, Aokiji slowly continued, "In this case, it's better not to see him. It can be considered out of sight and out of mind…."
What Aokiji said…
At first glance, it sounded reasonable.
But this was clearly surrendering to Uehara!
"Kuzan!"
Akainu's face could not help but darken. A drop of lava fell from his body. He turned around and walked out, "Then you just stay here!"
"Forget it; I will go with you to see…"
Aokiji rubbed his forehead, "I feel that if I don't go now and something happens, it's probably going to be difficult to end it…"
In the office of the Marine Fleet Admiral.
When Uehara followed Kizaru in, there were already a few marine higher-ups in this office. They were all waiting for his arrival.
The Marine Fleet Admiral, Sengoku the Buddha.
The Marine Staff Officer, Tsuru and Kabuto.
The Marine Headquarters Admiral, Akainu and Aokiji.
The Marine Vice Admiral, Monkey D. Garp.
After Kizaru sat down, this office already had all the strongest combat forces in the entire Marine.
This formation…
If it were an ordinary marine, they would be scared!
Uehara hurriedly tidied up his marine uniform, took a deep breath, and solemnly saluted.
"Lord Fleet Admiral, SWORD unit member, Marine Captain Uehara Naraku reporting for duty!"
"Cough cough…"
Kabuto covered his lips and coughed a few times. He personally moved a chair over and placed it beside Uehara, "Captain Uehara Naraku, you've had a hard journey. Sit down and rest for a while…"
Uehara seemed to be at a loss as he accepted the chair Kabuto provided with a face full of gratitude, "Thank you, Vice Admiral Kabuto."
"Don't mention it."
Kabuto narrowed his eyes and waved his hand with a smile. He smiled and continued to ask, "Do you want to drink some juice? I have prepared a few cups of freshly squeezed juice here…"
"I don't dare. It's too troublesome…"
Uehara couldn't help but reveal a trace of fear.
At this moment, Uehara was a Marine Captain who was inexplicably treated by a Vice Admiral and seemed to be flattered.
When Vice Admiral Tsuru saw this scene, she couldn't help but show some regret, "Little Kabuto is really still the same when it comes to dealing with people…"
In Marineford, Kabuto was polite to everyone.
If Vice Admiral Tsuru didn't know what Kabuto had done to please the Five Elder Stars and World Government in the past few years, she might still have a good impression of Kabuto like in the past.
Now…
When Vice Admiral Tsuru saw that Kabuto was so polite to Uehara, the Marine Captain, she was really not used to it. She vaguely felt that Kabuto had bad intentions.
"Captain Uehara Naraku used to be my colleague…"
Kabuto reached out and handed a glass of juice to Uehara. He pushed up his glasses and said with a smile, "And we are old friends who haven't seen each other for several years… Speaking of which, I really miss it…"
"Does Little Kabuto still remember his old comrade…"
Garp walked to Uehara's side and slapped him on the shoulder. He laughed and said, "What a spirited little guy!"
This slap…
Its strength was not small!
Uehara quickly tilted his body, his face showing a hint of pain. "Hiss… Vice Admiral Garp… It hurts, it hurts…"
"…"
The expressions of everyone present changed.
The Three Marine Admirals don't know what expression they should make. Was this Uehara really going to act like this in the Marine Headquarters?
God…
Now he can't even stand a slap…
It was completely different from his momentum when he pressed an Admiral to the ground and hammered them!
Sengoku looked at Uehara's painful expression and couldn't help but frown, "Hey, Garp, what are you doing?"
"Bwahaha… Come get a bag of Senbei! "
After that, Garp didn't wait for Sengoku to refuse. He picked up the Senbei on Sengoku's desk and returned to his seat.
"Don't do unnecessary things…"
Tsuru looked at Garp with blame, then looked at Uehara. She then smiled and said, "He is indeed a very energetic little guy. Kuzan, occasionally you need to learn from others. Don't always look like you had no energy!"
"…"
Aokiji's eyebrows shook.
Akainu and Kizaru couldn't help but lower their heads.
Monkey D. Garp tore open the bag of Senbei in his hand, and his eyes were still staring straight at Uehara, who was still in pain while laughing and eating.
The first time he saw the wanted poster…
Garp once felt that Uehara might be a little dangerous.
At that time, Garp didn't have a particularly clear feeling. It was just a subconscious intuition at first sight. Later, when Baroque Work robbed Foosha Village, Garp learned from Makino, Hina, and others that Uehara was actually a good person.
Later…
Garp forgot about Uehara…
Now that the two of them finally met here for the first time, Garp remembered this matter and directly slapped Uehara on the shoulder. It seems that Uehara's reaction was not fake, and his strength does not seem to be dangerous…
"Captain Uehara Naraku, it's okay…"
Kabuto's palm was covered with green chakra, and it fell on Uehara's shoulder. He smiled and said, "Vice Admiral Garp is very powerful; I'll use my medical ninjutsu. It should not be particularly painful soon…"
"Thank you, Vice Admiral Kabuto."
Uehara slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
Tsuru frowned at this scene and whispered, "Sorry, Captain Uehara, Garp is so reckless. I heard that before you joined the Marine, I would like to thank you for your help with the Foosha Village's matter…"
"Don't say that."
Uehara hurriedly shook his head and said in a deep voice, "My strength is limited, and I only did a small thing. But at that time, I could only barely save some innocent people…"
"Well said."
Kabuto pushed up his glasses, looked at Garp, and slowly smiled. "It's just a pity. The grandson of Vice Admiral Garp that Naraku saved, Monkey D. Luffy, has now become a pirate on the sea…"
"What!"
The whole office was suddenly full of shock.
Everyone couldn't help but look at Garp.
Especially Sengoku, he couldn't help but look at Garp with anger on his face. He looked at Kabuto and said, "Cough cough… I already know about this matter…"
The Marine hero was still eating Senbei slowly. He saw Sengoku's eyes, and his eyes were a little erratic. He scratched his head and laughed, "It's just an ignorant child. Moreover, Luffy hasn't caused any big trouble yet…"
"Is that so?"
Kabuto shook his head and looked at Garp. He smiled and continued, "But the information I received is that Monkey D. Luffy destroyed East Blue's Marine Branch. Captain Nezumi reported to me in private, and the situation is very serious…"
When he said this, Kabuto couldn't help but turn his head and smile, "Lord Fleet Admiral has also received it, right? Monkey D. Luffy's bounty should be about to be issued soon, right?"
"Mm…"
Sengoku slowly nodded and said in a deep voice, "I have already approved the wanted poster. Straw Hat Luffy's bounty is 30 million Beli…"
"This number is not enough."
Kabuto's face immediately became serious. He said in a deep voice, "According to the information on my side, Monkey D. Luffy's bounty should be at least 100 million Beli. We should even send a fleet to arrest him."
"Well… Vice Admiral Kabuto."
Aokiji sat on the chair and said, "A new pirate from East Blue who has the title of the weakest sea, if we directly offered 100 million bounty, wouldn't it be a bit of contempt for the dignity of the marine?"
"I'm just planning ahead."
Kabuto smiled and looked at Aokiji, "Moreover, I have also found out about the past of the Straw Hat Luffy and the red-haired Shanks. Straw Hat Luffy is a very evil seed. If you underestimate him too much, the marine will regret it sooner or later…"
"Hey, hey, hey…"
Vice Admiral Garp couldn't help but smash the table, and his face couldn't help but show a layer of anger, "Kabuto, what do you mean? He is the grandson of this old man. He was just temporarily deceived by that red-haired bastard. Do you think that this old man is also an evil pirate?"
"I have never wanted to slander Vice Admiral Garp."
Kabuto slowly shook his head and looked at Garp, "I'm just taking matters into account with the attitude of being responsible to the World Government and the marine…"
Kabuto pushed up his glasses and continued calmly, "As the commander of the World Government's spy department, there are some things that we are very clear about. Vice Admiral Garp should also know that once your grandson's information is revealed…"
"Hmph, my son is a revolutionary!"
Garp couldn't help but hold his arm and snorted.
"Yes."
Kabuto smiled and nodded. He continued calmly, "So we have been secretly tracking down Monkey D. Dragon… I believe the result will not disappoint you."
"…"
Uehara couldn't help but look at Kabuto.
It seems that Kabuto went undercover in the World Government a little bit hard.
Report chapter Comments
In Sengoku's office.
Garp's mouth was obviously not as sharp as Kabuto's.
Kabuto, who had always been famous for his ingenuity and intelligence, was very clear about Vice Admiral Garp's Achilles heel. Every word could directly pierce into Garp's Achilles heel.
Seeing that a dispute was about to start, Tsuru looked at Kabuto and said, "Little Kabuto, we are here to discuss Akatsuki… About the new pirate Straw Hat Luffy, let's put it aside for the time being!"
The relationship between Tsuru and Kabuto had always been good, and she had always taken good care of Kabuto. However, because Kabuto's promotion was too fast in the past two years. Kabuto gradually showed the intention of leaving the marine and wanting to go to a high position, so their relationship was a bit distant.
Among the people present, only Tsuru's identity was not high. But in terms of relationships, she was close to Kabuto and Garp and could persuade them.
If Tsuru was qualified to persuade Kabuto…
There was no doubt that Uehara could stop Kabuto.
"Vice Admiral Kabuto."
Uehara slowly lowered his head and said, "When I saved Luffy, I knew that he would go out to sea to become a pirate…
And it was Luffy's persuasion that made me gather the courage to face my past and let me understand that as long as I still have the dream of joining the marine to carry out justice, I should do it no matter how difficult it is."
Uehara raised his head again, his eyes were firm, and his expression gradually became excited, "That's why I dared to accept your invitation in Alabasta to join the Marine SWORD unit and jointly overthrow the evil pirate Crocodile!"
"…"
The entire office was silent.
All the people present couldn't help but be stunned when they heard Uehara's words.
The expression of the three Marine Admirals seemed to be struck by lightning. What the hell was this guy talking about?
Dare to become a marine because of the encouragement of a pirate?
This guy was too outrageous!
If not for Aokiji, Akainu, and Kizaru, who really knew Uehara's identity, they would have thought that Uehara's story sounded like it was true…
Just like the real thing.
Unfortunately, this story didn't fit his real identity at all.
The three Marine Admirals woke up in an instant, and their expression became very ugly. Was this Uehara pretending again?
Unfortunately…
The three old men in the office could not tell.
"Bwahaha…"
Garp looked at Uehara and could not help but laugh, "Little brat Uehara, I really like you more and more! When the matter here is over, I'll introduce you to the two good new recruits by my side. If you guys talk, you will definitely have a common language!"
In fact.
It was not the first time that Luffy had provoked the marine. There was Captain Morgan, who was in East Blue Marines 153rd Branch. He was the first Marine Captain that Luffy had defeated.
However, because they were grateful to Luffy for defeating the brutal Captain, they didn't report him to Marineford. When Garp went to East Blue, he knew about this and brought back two recruits.
One of the recruits was named Koby.
The recruit named Koby seemed to have joined the marine under Luffy's encouragement.
Just as Garp was laughing, Uehara shook his head and whispered, "Of course, since I become a marine. I must execute justice, so I will not let Luffy go…"
At this point, Uehara slowly turned to look at the Marine Fleet Admiral Sengoku, "Lord Fleet Admiral, I request a transfer and go to East Blue to capture Luffy!
Because I believe in Luffy's strength, he will never be a simple pirate; he must have the possibility to threaten justice!"
"Bwahaha…"
Garp, who was sitting next to Uehara, laughed and nodded. He even looked at Uehara with encouragement, "Sure, sure. Little brat Uehara, quickly help me catch that bastard Luffy for me!"
"…"
Sengoku fell silent.
To be honest, Sengoku did not want to agree to this.
"I know, the marine can not offend the superiors."
Uehara slowly lowered his head and softly continued, "But I don't want to continue hiding my identity and continue to carry out justice in the dark… Because I'm worried about myself. I don't know when I may mix with the dark…"
Uehara slowly clenched his fists and said in a low voice, "I saw the darkness in Wano Country, but in order not to expose my identity, I could only hide to the side… Every day, I was worried that I would really become so cold-blooded…"
Uehara's voice became lower and lower, and the atmosphere in the entire office became a little gloomy under his voice, "I once secretly wanted to help, but the members of the CP0 stopped me…
They were also killing people, and they killed those people I wanted to help just to prevent me from going out and possibly revealing my identity!"
"…"
Everyone present fell silent.
Even Aokiji couldn't help but tilt his head. Was what Uehara said true? Why did it feel more and more real?
This kind of thing was indeed in line with the style of CP0.
In order to avoid the risk of a spy being exposed out of kindness, the CP0 would kill the person that the spy wanted to help and solve the spy's motive for revealing himself from the root.
Moreover, everyone knew that the CP0 would really do this. They also had the right to do so because the CP0 was directly serving the Celestial Dragon.
Of course…
The World Government also had the right to mobilize them.
And now, there were only seven people who possessed the authority to mobilize the CP0. Apart from the Five Elder Stars, there were only Kabuto and the current World Government Commander-in-Chief Kong.
Obviously…
According to Fleet Admiral Sengoku and Vice Admiral Tsuru's guesses, the activity CP0 in Wano Country was likely Kabuto's order.
After all…
Only Kabuto had been monitoring Wano Country's information.
They couldn't help but look at Kabuto.
Kabuto slowly pushed up his glasses, revealing a serious expression on his face, "Captain Uehara Naraku, what the CP0 did to Wano Country was my intention. Everything I did was for your safety…"
When he said this, Kabuto's face even revealed a trace of seriousness, "If not for you, the CP0 wouldn't have lost so many people. Even when the CP0 protected the World Nobles, they didn't suffer great losses than protecting you!"
This sentence was also very correct.
Ever since the Akatsuki Organization occupied Wano Country, the CP0 had constantly been losing manpower in Wano Country. Even the Celestial Dragon's CP0 was decreasing. The entire CP department was constantly losing blood, and it was somewhat difficult to bear the loss of the CP0 agent.
Every year, the CP0 members sent to Wano Country would sink into the sea. If not for the fact that Kabuto was good at cultivating spies, the CP department might have been paralyzed…
"Vice Admiral Kabuto, but those people that I wanted to save, not only were they not saved by me, they died under our butcher's knife because of me…"
A shadow gradually appeared on Uehara's face. He clenched his teeth tightly and continued in a low voice, "What do you want me to do? I only dared to vent my anger on my own. I said to myself that it was for a greater purpose to convince myself…
However, the feeling of powerlessness and guilt that I couldn't get rid of was like a nightmare. I didn't know how long I could hold on…"
"Captain Uehara…"
Sengoku slowly took off his glasses and wiped the fog from his glasses. This Marine Fleet Admiral finally felt the pain and struggle of a spy.
This story completely moved the heart of this Marine Fleet Admiral.
Back then…
His adopted son Corazon…
In fact, he was suffering from the same pain as Uehara, right?
No, or it could be said that Corazon's suffering was even greater because what Corazon was spying on was his own brother, Donquixote Doflamingo.
In the end, Corazon eventually died.
Now, Uehara has returned from Wano Country in torment.
If he forced Uehara to carry out the undercover mission again, something might really happen with the spirit of this marine who has chosen to be a righteous man…
Sengoku slowly put his glasses back on the bridge of his nose. He shook his head and sighed. He then said with a serious face, "Alright, after we end this meeting, I will promote you according to your achievements, and…"
"You can't…"
Kabuto pushed up his glasses and stood in front of the Fleet Admiral's desk. He slowly said, "Captain Uehara Naraku is the most skilled undercover member in the Marine SWORD unit. How many people did the CP0 waste to make him hide in Wano Country for so many years…"
The corner of Kabuto's mouth curved up, revealing a sneer as he looked at Sengoku, "Lord Fleet Admiral, do you really think that the CP0 protected him for such a long time just to let him come back and be an ordinary Marine Captain?"
Kabuto slowly squatted in front of Uehara and said with a smile, "No… I will recruit him to the CP0 department and continue to be his old job…"
"Little Kabuto!"
Tsuru's face suddenly became ugly. She looked at this white-haired young man whom she had once regarded as the hope of the marine in disbelief.
Didn't Kabuto hear Uehara just now?
Why did Kabuto become like this?
Could it be that after staying in World Government for such a long time, he was gradually corroded by the power there? The current Kabuto was simply treating human lives like grass!
"Little Kabuto… Why did you become like this?"
Tsuru couldn't help but look at Kabuto. She sighed and said, "Captain Uehara, have already had enough of that dark life. If this continues, he might not be able to play the role of a spy as you wish…"
"Vice Admiral Kabuto!"
Sengoku slowly stood up, looked at Kabuto, and said in a deep voice, "Now I am still the Marine Fleet Admiral; I still have the qualifications to decide the appointment of a Marine Vice Admiral!"
Uehara has been undercover for almost three years in Wano Country and has provided endless information for the Marine and World Government. From now on, Uehara will be promoted to Marine Vice Admiral; now, you are on the same rank, Vice Admiral Kabuto!"
"…"
Kabuto's face changed.
The next moment, Kabuto slowly stood up and reached out to massage Uehara's shoulders. His smile gradually became strange, "What great courage, Lord Fleet Admiral?"
Kabuto picked up a glass of juice again and handed it to the stunned Uehara. He smiled and said, "The promotion speed is very fast… Vice Admiral Uehara Naraku… In the future, I wish you good luck in the sea. I will also let the CP department protect you at any time!"
"…"
This sentence made Sengoku's expression become more and more ugly.
In the eyes of this Marine Fleet Admiral, Kabuto definitely did not want the CP department to protect him but used the CP department to monitor Uehara.
This guy, Kabuto…
Ever since he had slowly stepped into World Government, becoming a celebrity in the eyes of the Five Elder Stars and the Celestial Dragons, he had become more and more arrogant!
Moreover…
This guy really had the capital to be arrogant!
The Kabuto, who was very friendly to others, now it seemed that he was actually a vulture in a coat of dove of peace!
Unfortunately…
Sengoku couldn't do anything to him.
While Sengoku and Kabuto were arguing, the three Marine Admirals was still sitting calmly as if nothing had happened.
At this moment, the three of them really didn't know what to say.
The three Marine Admiral looked at each other; Aokiji held his chin and continued to stare blankly; Akainu slowly closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep; Kizaru started to fix his nails.
Marineford's life was really boring…
"Huh?"
Aokiji suddenly reacted and looked at Uehara in disbelief.
Sengoku and Kabuto almost got into a fight…
As a result… Uehara was promoted?
Report chapter Comments
Marine Fleet Admiral's office.
Aokiji couldn't help but scratch his hair.
Why did Fleet Admiral Sengoku and Kabuto almost fall out…
How did Uehara get promoted?
Moreover, it was Fleet Admiral Sengoku who had personally promised him!
Kabuto and Uehara were clearly in the same group!
Although Aokiji didn't know what was going on, he was very clear that Fleet Admiral Sengoku must have been fooled!
At this time, Sengoku felt that he was the winner.
Because Sengoku knew that even if Uehara might be threatened by Kabuto in the future, he had temporarily saved a marine that was about to be destroyed by Kabuto.
"Vice Admiral Uehara Naraku."
Sengoku sat down again and said solemnly, "Now, let's talk about the Akatsuki Organization. After you finish your report, go to the logistics department to choose a suitable Vice Admiral warship and execute your justice on the sea!"
After saying that, Sengoku turned to look at Kabuto and ordered coldly, "Vice Admiral Yakushi Kabuto, I remember that you usually record the information in the past. There should be no problem for you to record it personally, right?"
"…"
Kabuto's face darkened.
The next moment, Kabuto slowly nodded his head, and his mouth revealed a sneer, "Then I hope our Vice Admiral Naraku can provide us with more detailed information!"
The current Kabuto looked like a villain.
If not for Aokiji, Kizaru, and Akainu knowing the real identity of Kabuto, they would have thought that Kabuto would kill Uehara in the future!
F*ck…
These two guys…
They were much better at acting than they had imagined!
It was hard to imagine how complicated Fleet Admiral Sengoku's mood would be when he found out that Uehara and Kabuto were actually in the same group in the future…
Because…
He, the Marine Fleet Admiral, had even resolutely promoted Akatsuki's leader!
"Oh…"
Aokiji rubbed his hair, and his face gradually became embarrassed, 'In the future, if Fleet Admiral Sengoku knew about this, would he have a heart attack?'
Aokiji can only hope that Sengoku, who has been a Marine for so many years, must also have a heart as tough as Vice Admiral Garp's fist…
But what happened here…
After the truth was revealed in the future, even Vice Admiral Garp, a knowledgeable and powerful Marine hero, might not be able to withstand it…
Kizaru and Akainu also reacted quickly.
The expressions of the three Marine Admiral gradually became synchronized. They felt that they really shouldn't care about what happened in this office.
However…
What happened next was even worse.
A Marine Fleet Admiral thought that Akatsuki's leader was his subordinate, so he wanted to get information about Akatsuki from Akatsuki's leader. Was this f*cking interesting?
Moreover, Kabuto, who really recorded the information, was also a member of Akatsuki!
Uehara held a cup of fruit juice and sat on the chair. He then said with an ugly expression, "Let me start from the beginning… According to the information I got from Wano Country, it should be three years ago when Akatsuki suddenly sent troops to occupy Wano Country."
Sengoku frowned and asked, "I remember that you contacted us and mentioned this matter. There was a war between Kaido and Akatsuki. Did you find out the detailed process of this matter?"
"Yes, but I don't know if it's true or false."
Uehara nodded slowly and continued, "Because according to the information I got, the entire Beast Pirates should have been defeated by a woman… No, it should be said that they were defeated by God."
"Vice Admiral Naraku, this is not funny at all."
The pen in Kabuto's hand paused for a moment. He then said in a low voice, "I remember that Akatsuki's leader is a strong man. It is said that the members of Akatsuki, including Sasuke that defected, will only call Akatsuki's leader a true god!"
"…"
Uehara slowly lowered his head.
Aokiji, Akainu, and Kizaru had subtle expressions.
At this moment, the three of them finally understood why Kabuto was regarded as the number one confidant by Uehara. It would be a miracle if Kabuto were not qualified to be the number one confidant!
Not only was Kabuto powerful, but he could also judge the situation and take care of everything about Uehara at all times, including Uehara's face…
It was clearly in the Fleet Admiral's office, and the surrounding Sengoku, Garp, and Vice Admiral Tsuru were staring at this place. How could Kabuto praise Uehara so directly?
Moreover, it wouldn't arouse the suspicion of others.
This kind of ability…
Really can't learn!
After a moment of silence, Uehara shook his head and said softly, "It is said that that woman was sheltered by Akatsuki's leader. I have never really seen that woman, but I have heard that her name should be Otsutsuki Kaguya. I have only heard about this matter…"
"It doesn't matter. That is enough."
Sengoku nodded slowly and said hesitantly, "The name Otsutsuki Kaguya does sound like the identity of a king or a Princess. Her identity should indeed be extraordinary. Let's temporarily put her on the most dangerous list!"
"Just the name alone is a dangerous person…"
Kabuto nodded and continued to ask, "Vice Admiral Naraku, please continue to tell the story you heard in Wano Country!"
"En…"
After Uehara nodded, his face gradually became serious, "In addition to Otsutsuki Kaguya, there is also a large ninja troop that occupies Wano Country together with Otsutsuki Kaguya…
I have seen ninjas appear in Wano Country several times. These ninjas do not seem to be very strong. They are just the arms of the Akatsuki Organization to conquer Wano Country. However, they are very vigilant. I do not dare to have too much contact with them. "
"Well, you are right."
Sengoku nodded approvingly, spread out his palm and continued, "Let's continue. What happened to Wano Country over the past few years…"
"Yes…"
Uehara nodded coyly and continued, "Ever since the Akatsuki Organization took over Wano Country, Akatsuki's leader has always been in his own mansion. He rarely shows himself in front of Wano Country. The entire Wano Country affair was decided by the higher-ups of Akatsuki…"
After thinking for a while, Uehara continued, "Not long after the war between Akatsuki and Beast Pirates ended, Beast Pirates and Akatsuki formed an alliance. I took this opportunity to sneak into Wano Country…
It had to be said that their alliance seemed to be very firm. Kaido was even willing to completely withdraw from Wano Country for the sake of Akatsuki's Organization and give up his own factory built in Wano Country. All the business was handed over to the Akatsuki Organization to manage…
Uehara said a lot of things, most of which were the alliance stories of Beast Pirates and Akatsuki, as well as the backbone members of Akatsuki.
These were all intelligence for the marine.
It was a pity that Uehara did not find out who Akatsuki's leader was. He could only make a preliminary judgment or perhaps a strong swordsman.
Because…
It was said that Akatsuki's leader had the hobby of collecting famous swords.
It was said that Wano Country's famous swords, Nidai Kitetsu, Enma, and Ame no Habakiri, had all fallen into the hands of Akatsuki's leader and became his collection.
"Is that so?"
Kabuto pushed up his glasses and closed the document in his hand, "Regardless of whether these are rumors or not, we might have collected enough…"
"Yes…"
Uehara nodded hesitantly.
Actually, it was a little difficult for Uehara to make up a story this time because his story was not moving. At least until the truth was revealed in the future…
His story will then move people's hearts.
"Then Vice Admiral Naraku, you should go and rest first!"
Fleet Admiral Sengoku waved his hand and said softly, "If we have any questions, we will look for you again. After you have rested, go to take up the Vice Admiral position!"
"Yes… that…"
There was a bit of embarrassment on Uehara's face as if he was a little timid and afraid of things. It felt like he was afraid of Sengoku, this Fleet Admiral, "Fleet Admiral, can I go now? I want to stop Mr. Luffy…"
"Yes."
Sengoku nodded and looked at Aokiji. He then said, "Just in time, take Kuzan with you on the road; he just happens to be patrolling the first half…"
"Huh?"
Kabuto looked at Sengoku and a smile appeared on his face, "Actually, Fleet Admiral should be worried that I would harm Vice Admiral Naraku… Don't worry so much. Everyone here should know very well that I am not a bad person…"
"…"
Sengoku didn't pay attention to Kabuto, but his eyes were still looking at Aokiji. Obviously, he didn't believe Kabuto's words and wanted Aokiji to protect Uehara for a period of time.
If a Marine Vice Admiral was hated and harmed by Kabuto as soon as he took office…
This would damage his dignity as a marine!
As for Kabuto saying that he was not a bad person…
Even a pigeon raised in Marineford wouldn't believe this sentence. In less than three years, how could Kabuto, who had climbed all the way to this high position, have a pure heart?
Aokiji scratched his head and nodded helplessly, "Well, then I will take him along the way!"
"Wait…"
Vice Admiral Garp's mouth revealed a bright smile, "Let me go! I haven't seen that bastard Luffy for a long time… Hahahaha…"
"No!"
Aokiji immediately rejected Garp.
Because Aokiji was a little worried that this respected old soldier would fall into Uehara's plot.
This matter…
Akainu was the precedent.
Sengoku also refused Garp's proposal.
Because Sengoku knew his old friend's temper and would not be ruthless to Monkey D. Luffy on the battlefield.
What's more…
Garp has more important things to do.
Report chapter Comments
Because of Sengoku and Aokiji's objection, Garp was still in Marineford.
Uehara didn't really want Garp to act together, and this marine hero was a little confusing.
He obviously doesn't have a brain…
But this guy's intuition was too amazing!
And from the looks of it, Garp has never lost to anyone…
Monkey D. Garp, Whitebeard Edward Newgate, these people standing at the top of the sea, who knows how strong they will be when they fight with their lives on the line.
These people were quite terrible when they threw their lives away, and they didn't even have a reference for their real combat power.
Most importantly, if Uehara went to East Blue this time and did not see Sabo. It was very likely that in order to let the Revolutionary Army enter the War of the Best, he had to plot against Garp's son, Dragon, which was too cruel to Garp…
Marineford's port.
Uehara was standing on his warship while Aokiji was standing next to him. This warship was maned with the marine from the marine logistics department, as well as a beautiful adjutant.
Her name was Ain.
This beautiful adjutant was Aokiji's junior sister and also Kabuto's senior sister. She was also the disciple of Zephyr.
Because of Kabuto's obstruction, Zephyr was not able to establish a marine guerrilla team. He was still working in Marineford, and Ain was still a marine officer that could be deployed at any time.
As for why Ain would come here now…
Of course, it was because Fleet Admiral Sengoku knew that Uehara's strength might not be enough, so he sent such a beautiful swordsman as his adjutant. She could completely help block most of the trouble.
The reason why this beautiful swordsman could be on Uehara's ship was also because of Kabuto's arrangement. This was one of the people that Kabuto has secretly developed in the past few years.
Holding a glass of juice, Ain slowly walked behind Uehara and Aokiji, then asked, "Vice Admiral Naraku, Admiral Aokiji, can we set sail now?"
"Let's go."
Uehara took the juice from Ain and nodded, "Let's go! Let's go directly to East Blue's Loguetown; we don't have to stop along the way."
"Well, let's do that…"
Aokiji nodded; after watching Ain leave, he couldn't help but say, "You don't really want to catch Mr. Garp's grandson, do you?"
"Of course not."
Uehara looked at Aokiji. He narrowed his eyes and smiled, "I probably just wanted to catch his son this time."
"…"
Aokiji's face couldn't help but freeze.
This guy actually wants to catch the leader of the Revolutionary Army, Dragon?
As Vice Admiral Garp's former adjutant, Aokiji was very clear about the matter of Garp's family. His face was a little ugly, "Is the target Dragon? That guy is not easy to deal with; in addition to his mind and thoughts, there is also his strength…"
"The D family doesn't seem to be very easy to deal with…"
Uehara grinned and said, "Speaking of which, if I were there to support you, can I help you catch Dragon in secret?"
"That's hard to say…"
Aokiji scratched his head and said calmly, "Moreover, it is not realistic for us to get Dragon's whereabouts… Even Staff Officer Kabuto has never found his whereabouts…"
Because Kabuto had been secretly investigating the Revolutionary Army, he had even found out a lot of news about the members of the Revolutionary Army. He took this opportunity to get more and more appreciation from the Five Elder Star.
But Kabuto really did not find much information about Dragon.
"Is that so? I'll find a chance to talk to Kabuto!"
Uehara nodded slowly. He would find a time to have a good chat with Kabuto and see how to maximize the benefits.
Just as Uehara and the others set off for East Blue.
Sasuke and Ace were still on their way to kill Blackbeard. They had already passed through Fishman Island and entered the first half of the Grandline.
With Whitebeard Pirates' comprehensive action, the news that Marshall D. Teach hurt his companions and betrayed Whitebeard Pirates also spread to the New World.
The news of Whitebeard Edward Newgate ordering Uchiha Sasuke and the 2nd Division captain Portgas D. Ace to kill the traitor Marshall D. Teach gradually began to spread.
This matter immediately shocked the New World.
Although Sasuke often caused trouble, his reputation in the New World was not low at all!
In the past few years, Sasuke had always been Whitebeard Pirates' main force against outsiders. It was not the first or second time he faced Yonko(Four Emperors) head-on…
Even Blackbeard Marshall D. Teach, who was still fleeing, could not help but feel a little scared and uneasy. He did not expect that it would be Sasuke and Ace chasing him together!
Even if Teach had obtained Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s power, he did not think that he had the strength to defeat Sasuke now…
This was nonsense…
Obviously, that guy was a character comparable to Yonko(Four Emperors), but he had been holed up in Whitebeard Pirates to play family games.
Now that Sasuke wanted to kill him, it was not that Teach had no way to deal with him. He wanted to try and use the Akatsuki Organization…
On a small island in the first half of the Grandline.
Marshall D. Teach bit his cherry pie in his mouth, held the Den Den Mushi in his hand, and dialed Itachi's number, "Zehahaha… Itachi-san, I have already gotten Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) here. Where can we meet?"
"Oh?"
Itachi, who was in the Den Den Mushi, was surprised for a second, but his voice became calm again, "Sure, give Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) to us, and I will persuade Sasuke to keep you alive."
"Zehahaha, this is not good, right?"
Teach laughed and continued, "Could it be that… you can't let me join Akatsuki?"
"You want to join Akatsuki?"
There was some doubt in Itachi's voice. In the next moment, his voice suddenly became cold again, "Then let's meet at a place. Give me the Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) in your hand first. If it is confirmed, I will let you join Akatsuki!"
"Burp…"
Teach burped and continued to laugh, "If I have Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s ability… am I eligible to join Akatsuki?"
Itachi's voice suddenly became cold, and he asked coldly, "Marshall D. Teach, did you eat the Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)?"
Hearing Itachi's indifference, Teach could not help but swallow his saliva and hurriedly explained to Itachi on the other side of the Den Den Mushi, "Itachi-san, doesn't Akatsuki only need Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s power?
And through the Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit), I also seem to have obtained a way to collect the power of the devil fruit, a way that only I know!"
When Teach said this, his voice gradually became ferocious, "I can help Akatsuki collect any of the abilities that you want, including Pop's Gura Gura no Mi(Tremor-Tremor Fruit)'s abilities…"
This once ambitious man's voice gradually became a little delusional, "Zehahaha… That is the power of the fruit that can destroy the world!"
This was the secret that Teach was hiding!
At this point, he wanted to use this matter to tempt the Akatsuki Organization.
This was the trump card that Teach's planned to use to attract Akatsuki Organization after he ate Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) himself!
"… Are you done?"
After hearing Teach's words, Itachi's voice was still calm, "From your tone. You've eaten Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit), right?"
"Yes…"
Teach nodded and continued to explain, "But…"
"No buts."
Itachi shook his head and continued calmly, "You no longer have any value. Since you have gotten what Akatsuki wants, there is no need to live."
Itachi's voice returned to indifference, "I will tell Sasuke to quickly kill you and find the reborn Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)."
After speaking, Itachi hung up the Den Den Mushi.
Teach looked at the Den Den Mushi in his hand in shock. The muscles on his face could not help but twitch, "What… what does this mean?"
The next moment…
Teach suddenly clenched the Den Den Mushi in his hand tightly. Looking at the Den Den Mushi showing a painful expression, his expression gradually became fierce!
"Bastard…"
"Who do you think you are?"
"Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) should be mine to begin with!"
"Wait and see! When my plan succeeds, I will let you sewer rats know who is the real owner of Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)!"
On the other side of the sea.
Just as Teach was getting angry.
In the sea area of ??Big Mom in Whole Cake Island, Itachi calmly put away his Den Den Mushi.
Katakuri, who was lying next to Itachi, bit on a huge doughnut and slowly said, "What's wrong, Itachi? Did something happen?"
In the past few years, Itachi spent most of his time with Katakuri. The relationship between the two of them was getting better and better.
Perhaps…
Because they were all brothers?
Itachi shook his head and whispered, "It's nothing. It's just that another overconfident person fell into the trap of the leader. By the way, don't mention that you have seen Black Zetsu in the future."
"Got it."
Katakuri slowly ate up his doughnut, wiped his hands and mouth, then wrapped his mouth with a scarf again, "The one who fell into the trap was Marshall D. Teach, who escaped from that old man Whitebeard, right?"
"Yes."
Itachi nodded and shook his head, "However, there is no need to pay too much attention to him now."
About Marshall D. Teach.
The Akatsuki Organization had already made arrangements. Even Uehara had already prepared a suitable partner for Teach. The first member of the upcoming Blackbeard Pirate had already arrived in front of Teach.
Its name was Black Zetsu.
In the first half of the Grandline, Marshall D. Teach was temporarily staying on a small island.
Just as Teach was still a little angry and panicked that he had provoked Akatsuki Organization, a black shadow gradually emerged from the ground and slowly attached itself to his body.
This black shadow was like mud.
Because its concealment was too high, only when Black Zetsu attached to Teach that he notice the appearance of this black shadow!
"What?"
Teach looked at the black shadow that suddenly appeared on his arm in shock. This pitch-black thing was actually attached to his body as if it had originally been part of his body!
"Hehehehe…"
The pitch-black thing suddenly let out a sinister laugh, "Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s new owner? Then, do you know what it means to eat Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)?"
"Bastard! What are you?"
Teach looked at the black thing moving on his body in bewilderment. He only felt that this thing seemed to be directly integrated into his body.
"You have eaten Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit). Don't you know the power of Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)?"
Black Zetsu's voice was still sullen, and it gradually revealed a strange face on Teach's arm, "Don't you want to know why this Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) is called the most evil fruit in the world? Don't you know why Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) eater can't elementalized?
"What?"
Teach's face was still shocked.
In the next moment, Teach's eyes suddenly revealed a trace of fierceness, "You… are Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)…"
"No, I am you!"
Black Zetsu's strange smile was like a demon, "When Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s owner needs power, the sleeping will in his heart wakes up and become a creature called Black Zetsu that always acts according to your wishes!"
Report chapter Comments
Teach was a bit in disbelief.
Unfortunately, Teach's understanding of Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) was only limited to him knowing that Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s strength could temporarily cause the other devil fruit's abilities to fail.
What this creature called Black Zetsu said was indeed very reasonable.
Whether it was its name or its appearance, it was similar to Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit). It seemed that it was also born in the darkness.
"Zehahaha…"
Teach stared at Black Zetsu in front of him, and the smile on his face gradually became evil, "If you say that you are my will. Then do you know what I want…"
"Hehehehe…"
Black Zetsu's laughter suddenly became sinister as he laughed and slowly said, "The dreams and ambitions of each generation of Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) eaters are almost the same…
No, it should be said that only the most ambitious person has the qualifications to obtain Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s qualifications. Marshall D. Teach, we won't have any exceptions either… "
Black Zetsu looked at Teach as its voice gradually became more and more sinister, "Instead of the man we admire most, let this sea enter the era in our name!"
"Zehahahaha!"
The joy in Teach's heart could no longer be suppressed. His palm slowly clenched, and a touch of greed flashed in his eyes, "It's really… couldn't be more true!
What I want is to replace my most admired father and let this era be named by Marshall D. Teach!"
"We have always been one."
Black Zetsu looked at Teach with satisfaction and nodded. Its body slowly fell off Teach's body, "If a person with the ability of Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) does not have the ambition and darkness to match this fruit, then he will never be qualified to awaken his will."
Then a strange smile gradually appeared on Black Zetsu's face, "At that time, his soul will be enslaved by Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) after death…
In the end, it will be completely devoured by Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s darkness and slowly transformed into a creature called White Zetsu, becoming the slave of Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s next eater!"
"…"
Teach's expression froze.
Was there any risk in becoming Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s eater?
If not acknowledged by Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit), this fruit would devour the eater's soul. Wasn't this fruit too terrifying?
Black Zetsu once again approached Teach. He laughed and said, "Teach, Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) is known as the most evil fruit. It is because it will devour those unqualified candidates. This is the source of its name, the most evil fruit!"
"…"
A trace of cold sweat appeared on Teach's face. He forcefully controlled his emotions and maintained his smile, "Zehahaha… from the looks of it; I am already a qualified candidate…"
"Not bad."
Black Zetsu's smile was still strange. It even nodded slowly and said, "Then do you want to see those failed products called White Zetsu? They are very interesting, and they are the most powerful helpers of Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s eater to conquer this era!"
In the next moment, Black Zetsu did not wait for Teach to react and immediately said, "Teach, use your will to summon the White Zetsu. They will always hide in the depths of the underground. Use all of Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s strength to attract them to reappear!"
Black Zetsu's voice became more and more gloomy, and his smile became terrifying, "Teach, see the gift of Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) to you and see its true greatness!"
The next second.
Teach gritted his teeth. His palm gradually turned dark and fell to the ground!
After a long time.
One by one, White Zetsu quietly emerged from the ground.
Teach's face gradually became a little stiff. He looked at these creatures called White Zetsu in disbelief. Each creature was incomparably ferocious.
This was definitely not a human!
This kind of creature had never appeared in the sea!
These White Zetsu looked a little inconspicuous, but their strange looks made Teach feel a little scared, 'Were these all Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) eaters who had failed in the past?'
"Hehehehe… Teach, do you know why White Zetsu can become the strongest help of Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) eater to conquer this era?"
Black Zetsu's laughter became more and more sinister. It slowly continued, "If a Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) eater wants to become the crownless king and the most powerful person in the world, he needs to replace the World Government!"
In the next moment, Teach's expression changed greatly!
Because in his line of sight, every White Zetsu had transformed into his appearance!
Teach had only heard of this ability before, and that was the Mane Mane no Mi(Clone-Clone Fruit). But now, these White Zetsu were actually able to transform into his appearance out of thin air!
It was hard to distinguish even with Kenbunshoku Haki(Observation Haki)!
Even their auras looked a little strong!
Teach could not help but feel uneasy. He pointed at a group of transformed White Zetsu and said, "These failed products can't also use my ability, can they?"
"No, their transformation abilities can only be used to disguise, but only the rare ability such as Voice of All Things can discover their true identities!"
Black Zetsu laughed and shook his head. He let one of White Zetsu cut off his arm and sent it to Teach, "The most important thing is that White Zetsu's existence can help heal some of your injuries at any time…
Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s ability was that the eater had to touch the enemy with his hand to make his ability ineffective. If you met a terrifying enemy and directly cut off your hand, White Zetsu's arm could be immediately transplanted.
Teach, do you want to try it now?"
"No… no."
Teach couldn't help but shake his head and swallow his saliva. A trace of fear flashed through his eyes, and then it faintly became a bit greedy, "Are these monsters that can transform at any time, my slaves?"
'Motherf*cker…'
'I really made a big profit with this Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)!'
Originally, Teach was worried about Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) not being able to elementalize. What should he do if he was seriously injured…
Unexpectedly…
The arm of a creature like White Zetsu could actually be transplanted to him!
"White Zetsu will only obey Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s eater…"
Black Zetsu's smile became more and more strange. His body once again attached to Teach, "They still have one last use. They can eat devil fruit and become an army of devil fruit users who are only loyal to us!"
"If you want a powerful force…"
Black Zetsu's eyes fell on Teach's face. He smiled and continued, "Then you can kill the original devil fruit users, seize their ability, and turn White Zetsu into a powerful army of devil fruit users!"
Teach, every generation of Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) eaters has noticed the possibility of transferring the devil fruit ability and restraining the enemy's ability!
Besides them was a powerful army of devil fruit's army to help them conquer this era!"
"Zehahahaha…"
Teach slowly nodded. His greedy eyes fell on this group of White Zetsu and couldn't help but slowly nod, "This is really unexpected! This kind of creature that only listens to me…"
It was really…
It made people want to go crazy!
A monster that only listens to him and can transform into anyone at any time; only the rare ability such as Voice of All Things can detect it!
And…
These White Zetsu could even become his subordinates.
It was just that these White Zetsu were actually transformed from some unqualified Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) eaters, causing Teach to be unable to help but feel a little flustered!
No wonder this devil fruit was known as the most evil fruit in the world, no wonder Akatsuki's leader tried every means possible to obtain Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)…
This was really no wonder. Itachi did not want him, the Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) eater, at all. Instead, he wanted to kill him. He wanted Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) to be reborn!
Mother…
As long as he became Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) eater, there would be a chance to get White Zetsu's legion and become a person that would not be afraid of any disability or injury!
It could replace any country leader in the world!
He could build a Devil Fruit legion that was only loyal to Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) eater!
Who would have thought that even if Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) only had limited ability, he would definitely have the possibility to rule this world!
Even…
As long as he worked hard, the probability of this was not low at all!
Teach couldn't suppress his ambition. He even wanted the White Zetsu Army in front of him to transform into devil fruit eaters and directly form the strongest pirate group composed entirely of devil fruit users!
And…
They will only be loyal to him!
Perhaps the only dangerous thing was that if his own ambition were not enough, he would also be turned into this kind of monster that doesn't seem to have intelligence but only listens to people…
"Zehahaha…"
Teach couldn't help but reveal a crazed smile, "Looks like what I need the most is time… But is White Zetsu only this much?"
"Hehehe… How many of Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s eaters can there be in the past?"
Black Zetsu's smile was still evil. It just slowly shook its head and said, "Before the Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) eater died, the White Zetsu who was summoned by him will die for him… Moreover, what you can use now is only summoned by your current power!"
Black Zetsu stared at Teach, and his smile was still evil and terrifying, "When the dark power you can unleash is strong enough to transmit to any corner of this world, those hidden White Zetsu will naturally appear in front of us!"
Of course, White Zetsu had more than that.
As long as White Zetsu used its Spore Technique to absorb chakra, it would be able to reproduce. Unfortunately, White Zetsu, who had been strengthened by Hashirama's cells, was only this much for the time being.
"Zehahahaha…"
Teach didn't care too much and slowly nodded.
But the madness in Teach's eyes almost couldn't be suppressed, "Forget it, it doesn't matter. These dozens of White Zetsu are enough for me now! Then let us conquer this era with darkness!"

Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)…
What an intoxicating ability.
Teach truly felt the joy of those with the Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)'s ability.
This fruit ability was really not a waste of twenty years in Whitebeard Pirates that he had endured, and he had offended two super forces, Whitebeard Pirates and Akatsuki, to obtain it!
But in exchange…
He had indeed received a huge reward!
This reward was completely beyond Teach's imagination!
Although Teach had only just learned that eating this fruit would face considerable risk, he still felt that he had to take a bite of this fruit.
However, as long as one had enough ambition and strength to control the power of this fruit, they would be able to obtain anything in the world that they wanted!
Power…
Strength…
Forces…
Everything you want, you can take it!
Whatever Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) eater wanted, he could get it. This fruit ability was definitely enough to make the world fall into darkness!
"Hu…"
Teach took a deep breath and suppressed his excitement. What should he do now? It seemed that he could do anything!
Kill the king of a country, let White Zetsu replace him, or hunt down the devil fruit user and let White Zetsu become an army of devil fruit users?
It was really difficult to choose!
Black Zetsu looked at Teach's tangled face, and the corner of his mouth curved into a terrifying smile, "What we have to do is to take everything from Whitebeard; we can't continue to waste time here. Before White Zetsu becomes a combat power, we should first gather some useful people…
Slowly find some vicious fellows on this sea, make them our pawns and subordinates, control the descent of the dark era… "
"Zehahaha…"
Teach's gaze slowly fell on Black Zetsu. He grinned and said, "It's just as I thought!"
Black Zetsu's body slowly attached itself to Teach. Its voice gradually came out of Teach's body, "I am your will. I naturally will act according to your will. As for these White Zetsu, let them hide and gather information about the world first. They can even sneak into Marineford, the headquarter of the marine. You summon them when we need them…"
"Zehahaha… That's right!"
Teach clenched his fists, and his face became crazier and crazier, "I am now called Blackbeard… Pops era will soon pass. The future era of this sea will be called Blackbeard!"
Unfortunately…
It didn't take long for Teach to recover from his arrogance because he knew that Sasuke and Ace were still on their way to kill him.
And now, Teach wanted to go to the medical country Drum Island to see if his body could accommodate two devil fruit's powers…
What he wanted was to take everything from Whitebeard!
In addition to Whitebeard's status and power, he also wanted to seize Whitebeard's power. If he wanted to dominate this world, his own strength was not enough to make him stand at the peak!
At least when facing Sasuke's pursuit, there was no room to fight back!
"Except for that little brat Sasuke…"
Teach couldn't help but grit his teeth and spat, "Maybe there will be Akatsuki's lingering guys who will chase after me too…"
The mysterious leader of Akatsuki has been looking for Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit). It must be because the leader knows the true value of Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit), so they do not need the devil fruit eater. What they need is Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit)!
It was really troublesome…
However, this little trouble was really nothing in front of the temptation to conquer this world!
If you don't have enough ambition…
Yami Yami no Mi(Dark-Dark Fruit) will devour your soul!
Just as Teach was cursing Akatsuki in his heart, Black Zetsu attached himself to him and tried to contact Uehara through the Rinnegan.
"Hagoromo…"
There was a hint of a smile in Black Zetsu's voice, which made people realize that it was very happy now that it had returned to its old profession.
Back then, it had deceived Madara like this…
Now, this guy called Marshall D. Teach was simply the same.
Unfortunately, Black Zetsu called the wrong name.
"You are looking for the wrong person."
Uehara replied indifferently and corrected Black Zetsu in a cold voice, "I am Uehara Naraku, not your brother…"
"What's the difference?"
Black Zetsu's smile was a little regretful. He could not help but sigh, "We are a family. Mother has been missing you since you left…"
"Let's talk about business. Don't mention her."
"How heartless…"
When Black Zetsu mentioned Kaguya, it would say good things every once in a while because it was Kaguya's will, "Mother is spoiling you in her own way. She really wants to…"
"Hey, Black Zetsu."
Uehara's attitude clearly became a little tough, "There is only one moon on this sea. I think we can use Planetary Devastation to add one more. What do you think?"
"Hehehehe… We won't talk about this anymore."
Black Zetsu was very tactful and immediately changed the topic. "Marshall D. Teach has fallen into our control. He has already acknowledged that I am his will…"
"Well done."
Uehara was not stingy with his praise for Black Zetsu's work, "I will send Obito to lurk around you to assist you."
"Hehehehe… It couldn't be better."
Then Black Zetsu asked darkly, "Uehara, if you have nothing to do, you can contact mother with a Den Den Mushi or directly use the Rinnegan to contact her…"
"I'm very busy right now."
Uehara immediately interrupted Black Zetsu's words.
The current Uehara was indeed very busy.
Because after cutting off contact with Black Zetsu, Uehara quickly contacted Kabuto and asked him to send a member of the CP department to assist in capturing Sabo or Monkey D. Dragon of the Revolutionary Army.
This could also be considered a contribution.
Moreover, this contribution could allow Kabuto to take another step forward.
While Uehara and Kabuto were discussing, Uehara mentioned that he might defect from the marine. Kabuto immediately approved this plan.
Kabuto also believed that when Uehara defected, the bigger the thing he did, the better…
Because Kabuto still planned to use this matter to attack Sengoku in front of the Five Elder Stars!
Aokiji couldn't help but clench his fists.
Whether it's right or wrong, it's all up to them to decide. No matter what Fleet Admiral Sengoku does, it's wrong. Anyway, he will be used by Akatsuki.
They wouldn't let go of any place they could use.
"We are almost at Loguetown."
They were entering East Blue through the windless belt from the Grandline and would soon arrive at East Blue, Loguetown.
In order to ensure that they could make it before Luffy left Loguetown, Uehara had been making the warship speed up at full speed.
Aokiji rubbed his forehead while watching Uehara hang up Kabuto's Den Den Mushi; he couldn't help but say, "Why is that guy Kabuto getting worse and worse?"
"Maybe it's because of the rotten World Government…"
Uehara shook his head and sighed, "I guess he has seen too much of the World Government's deception in the past two years! Let's go; let me revisit my old place!"
Loguetown.
This place was on the small island near the entrance to Grandline. Uehara had been there once, and he had awakened Haoshoku Haki(Conqueror's Haki) there.
Yes.
Uehara himself had awakened Haoshoku Haki(Conqueror's Haki) on the execution platform. This trash system was only used to conveniently upgrade his Haoshoku Haki(Conqueror's Haki)'s level.
When Uehara arrived, Loguetown's weather was a bit harsh, and it seemed that it was not suitable for sailing at all.
Port area.
Uehara's warship slowly sailed in. His eyes scanned the surroundings and finally landed on a ship with a simple and honest lamb head at the bow.
It was the Going Merry.
It was the ship of the Straw Hat Pirates.
There were several tangerine trees planted on the Going Merry, and the deck was very clean. It could be seen that the Straw Hat Pirates loved their boat very much.
"Ain."
Uehara suddenly waved his hand and called his adjutant, "Do you see that small boat? Now move our boat closer. Leave one tangerine tree on that small boat. The rest will be moved to our warship. Also, search the boat and collect all the money in it…"
"What… what?"
Ain's face was full of doubts.
Aokiji couldn't help but cover his face; he rubbed his forehead and said, "Hey, is that Monkey D. Luffy's pirate ship?"
"Yes."
"But…"
Ain, the beautiful swordsman, was even more confused. Her expression became more and more strange, "Vice Admiral Naraku, why don't we just sink it now? This way, they can't escape, right?"
"What you said makes sense."
Uehara nodded and said, "But I actually still want to empty the things on that pirate ship first…"
"…"
Ain was silent.
What kind of demon boss was this?
Even Aokiji, who was next to them, agreed with this opinion.
In any case, Uehara should want to let Monkey D. Luffy go; at least Vice Admiral Garp's grandson would not fall into their hands.
Unfortunately…
Garp's grandson was actually in a dangerous situation now.
On Loguetown's execution platform, there was an ongoing execution, and the target of the execution was Garp's grandson, Monkey D. Luffy.
Buggy the Clown, together with Alvida, grabbed the Straw Hat Luffy and wanted to execute him on this execution platform that had once executed Gol D. Roger.
Just as Luffy was about to be beheaded, a bolt of lightning swept over, completely crushing the execution platform and saving Luffy's life.
Two figures were looming with the lightning.
Monkey D. Dragon revealed a mysterious smile. He slowly turned to look at the young man beside him and said, "Sabo, if you want to see him, go see him!"
"Well, time flies!"
Sabo smiled and nodded, "I really didn't expect that Luffy would soon enter the Grandline!"
Sabo could not help but look at Dragon, who was in front of him, and said, "However, Mr. Dragon, are you not going to see Luffy?"
"It's not the right time yet."
Dragon shook his head slowly.
Just at this time, a white smoke suddenly rose and quickly wrapped around a group of pirates on the square. Smoker, the marine stationed in Loguetown, finally showed up!
This marine took action to catch the Buggy Pirates and Alvida then directly used his fruit ability to catch the pirates that he thought were most likely to pose a big threat!
"Straw Hat Luffy!"
Smoker's figure turned into a cloud of smoke and quickly caught up to Luffy. He waved his hand and released white smoke to trap Luffy's body. A fierce look flashed across his face, "No matter what, I will never let you escape from here!"
"Don't disturb me from going out to sea!"
Luffy waved his fist and tried to scatter the white smoke in front of him, but his strength was not enough!
Just as Smoker raised the Jitte in his hand and was about to hit Luffy, a metal pipe suddenly appeared and blocked Smoker's attack.
"My brother is going to become the Pirate King…"
Sabo held the metal pipe in his hand and slowly raised his head to look at Smoker. A smile appeared on his face, and he said, "So, please do not delay his sailing to the sea…"

Three years ago.
Sabo recovered his memories with Uehara's help. At that time, Sabo also saw Luffy when he returned to Mt. Colubo with Dadan.
When they meet in Loguetown again, Luffy's face was full of surprise, "Sabo! Why are you here?"
"Ah, I just happened to have something to do in Loguetown…"
Sabo turned to look at his brother with a refreshing smile on his face, "I will stop him. Hurry up and leave with your companions!"
"This white smoke man is very difficult…"
"Don't worry."
Sabo smiled and shook his head. His palm slowly turned into a claw shape, and Busoshoku Haki(Armament Haki) instantly covered his palm.
"Dragon Claw Fist!"
Sabo attacked Smoker!
His pitch-black claws then fiercely clawed at Smoker!
"Busoshoku Haki(Armament Haki)…"
In the next moment, Smoker jumps backward with an ugly expression.
Even so, his clothes were still ripped open by the Dragon Claw Fist!
"Go, Luffy!"
Sabo looked at Luffy with a smile and said, "Follow the sea breeze that will send you off and enter the Grandline! Go see the world's most magnificent scenery and become stronger and stronger! Be sure to get the ONE PIECE we agreed on and become the Pirate King of this era!"
"Ah, don't worry!"
Luffy smiled and nodded. He flew toward the dock, and his voice spread throughout Loguetown's square, "I already said that I will definitely become the Pirate King!"
"This guy…"
Sabo chuckled and shook his head helplessly.
Sabo was really helpless for his idiotic brother. Sometimes, Sabo even felt that he was infected by Luffy…
A burst of white smoke suddenly began to spread again.
Smoker's figure reappeared in front of Sabo. He clenched his Jitte and puffed out smoke from the cigar in his mouth.
"Hmph, Straw Hat Luffy's helper?"
Smoker waved his Jitte and rushed toward Sabo again. He then shouted with a fierce expression, "Then you can stay here together!"
Sabo held the metal pipe in his hand and faced Smoker's Jitte. His smile gradually became more confident, "I absolutely can not agree to this matter…"
The next second, the two of them started a big battle on Loguetown's square!
While Sabo and Smoker were fighting, Luffy and the other members of the Straw Hat Pirates had already fled to the port and rushed to their pirate ship.
"Wait…"
Zoro's eyes seemed to see a figure on the Going Merry. He couldn't help but say, "Hey, there seems to be someone else on our ship!"
"Huh? How is that possible?"
Sanji glanced at the people around him, "Nami-chan, this idiot Luffy, Usopp, and you sh*tty marimo are here, so there should be no one on the ship… Anyway, he is not a good person. He should be a thief. Let's get on the ship first!"
"Ahhhhh…"
Nami saw that the lush tangerine trees on the Going Merry had disappeared. Her expression quickly became irritable, "Ah… Where are my tangerine trees? If I had known, I should have left you alone to watch the ship!"
"Stop arguing! Stop arguing! There are three marines on the ship!"
Usopp stared at the figures on the ship. As a sniper, Usopp had the best eyesight.
On the Going Merry.
Uehara sat on the railing of the ship and slowly raised his head to look at the weather. He opened his palm and said calmly, "Admiral Aokiji, Ain, go and help our Captain Smoker!"
"So annoying…"
Aokiji scratched his hair and flew to the shore, "Dragon is not easy to deal with…"
"It doesn't matter."
Uehara glanced at Ain, who had flown down, and smiled, "You only need to delay Dragon. Let Ain and the CP reinforcements have enough time to catch Sabo."
"Yes, Vice Admiral Naraku."
Ain nodded with a serious face and continued, "Are we really not going to catch those people from the Straw Hat Pirates? This opportunity is very rare…"
"It is useless to catch them at this time, isn't it?"
Uehara shook his head and refused Ain's proposal, "Right now, only Straw Hat Luffy has a bounty. Even if we catch him, it will only be locked up for a period of time… Moreover, the person we are going to catch today will make the Straw Hat Luffy even sadder."
"Understood!"
Ain nodded.
"So bad…"
Aokiji shook his head.
The next second, the two people ran in the direction of Loguetown square. When they met the Straw Hat Pirates, they didn't stop them; they just dodged and rushed into Loguetown square again!
"Eh?"
The people of the Straw Hat Pirates were still a little surprised.
Luffy scratched his head and looked at the two marines who were running in the direction of Loguetown square. He couldn't help but be surprised, "Eh? Aren't they here to catch us?"
"Those two guys are very strong!"
Zoro's gaze could not help but change. He suddenly clenched his swords and said, "What do they mean? Are they looking down on us?"
"Zoro, don't say anymore!"
Usopp looked in the direction of the Going Merry, and his face showed a trace of fear, "The remaining guy on the ship seems to be even more terrifying!"
In the next moment, the wind suddenly became more violent!
This gale instantly blew away the black cloud in the sky, and a ray of sunlight penetrated through the black cloud gap, illuminating Uehara, who was sitting on the Going Merry railing.
In the eyes of the Straw Hat Pirates…
This scene was extremely sacred and solemn, and people couldn't help but admire it!
"Uehara!"
Luffy recognized Uehara's appearance; his face showed a trace of joy. He then excitedly waved his arm, "Long time no see, Uehara!"
Because Straw Hat Pirates always mentioned Uehara, even if Luffy wanted to forget Uehara's appearance, he would always be passively thinking about it.
"That guy…"
Sanji's expression couldn't help but change.
It was really not easy to make Sanji have a good impression of Uehara. Because he had seen Uehara's bad behavior with his own eyes.
Nami's mood became even more complicated.
A touch of anger gradually appeared on Nami's face. She angrily rushed to the side of Going Merry and waved her fist angrily.
"Hey, Uehara, the tangerine trees that I brought from Cocoyashi Village on the Going Merry are stolen by you again!"
There was no doubt about this!
Other than the Uehara in front of her, who else would waste their time stealing the tangerine trees?
"Well, I left one for you!"
Uehara chuckled and shook his head. He threw a coin to Nami and said, "One hundred Beli, this is the money to buy the tangerine trees…"
"Wh… what?"
Nami subconsciously took the coin. Her eyes suddenly changed, "Wait, Uehara, the money we put on the ship…"
"Yes, I saw it. There are still 17,930,000 Beli in the safe…"
Uehara spread out his palm and said sincerely, "It seems that it is not easy for you to save so much money. I promise you that I will squander them well."
This number was not bad at all.
Nami's expression became very ugly. Everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates could see that Nami was not in a good mood.
But…
This Uehara was too much!
Nami clenched her fists and slowly raised her head to look at Uehara.
Obviously…
Nami's temper was on the verge of exploding.
In the past few years, Nami had never forgotten what happened after she met Uehara when she was fifteen. Now, history seemed to repeat itself.
This bastard, why was he always stealing her things?
"Nami, there are some things you shouldn't say."
Uehara shook the cloak on his body and smiled. "Let me remind you, I am Marine Vice Admiral. Compared to the Marine Captain Smoker, I am stronger. Have you figured out what to say?"
Nami's face suddenly froze.
Even if Uehara was not Vice Admiral, Nami wanted to scold him, but she had to think about it because she knew that this guy was actually very petty…
Thinking of the past, Nami's heart was full of grievances. Tears slowly gathered in her eyes. She looked up at Uehara and said, "You are already in the marine now; why are you still stealing my things…"
Pitiful…
Aggrieved and wronged…
This was Nami's usual killer for men.
Uehara looked at Nami's expression and tilted his head. He thought for a while and gave an answer, "Maybe I feel that it's not easy for you to make money, so I have the responsibility to help you spend the money… By the way, I have also sent people to take away the jewelry you hid in your room."
"…"
The grievance on Nami's face immediately turned into despair.
As expected, Uehara was still that vile bastard.
Even if he became a marine, he still couldn't change his nature of bullying a little girl like her. But why was this guy always able to find her money?
And every time he appeared at her happiest time…
He would steal her money, steal her treasure, steal her tangerine tree…
After Arlong Pirate was destroyed last time, Nami was at her happiest, but Uehara robbed her of the money she had saved up for many years. This time, when she had just returned from shopping and was about to enter the Grandline, the money and jewelry were all robbed again…
This guy…
Could it be her nightmare?
"Making a beautiful girl cry is not something a man should do!"
Sanji's voice suddenly sounded in everyone's ears. His figure quickly jumped toward Uehara and continuously kicked him!
Uehara stretched out his palm toward Sanji in the air, and a Busoshoku Haki(Armament Haki) was instantly released from his palm!
Then Sanji's body flew backward at an even faster speed!
"Idiot!"
Zoro cursed Sanji, then suddenly pulled out his three swords and rushed toward Uehara, "Santoryu: Sanzen Sekai(Three Sword Style: Three Thousand Worlds)!"
A murderous aura and a sword light swept toward Uehara!
In the next moment, Uehara stretched out a finger and pressed it on one of the swords, blocking the attack that looked like a tiger and causing a drop of cold sweat to appear on Zoro's face instantly!
This…
What exactly was going on?
What kind of joke was this?
Last time in Baratie, Mihawk used a small knife to break it. This time, Uehara used a finger to break his sword style!
"You…"
Zoro stared at Uehara and felt that something was wrong. They hadn't entered the Grandline yet, and they were already captured by the marine?
This kind of strength…
Even Luffy was far from being able to compare!
It was hard to imagine how many strong people there were in the marine and how many monsters there were in the Grandline!
"I won't stop you."
Uehara slowly shook his head and jumped down from the Going Merry railing. He then said seriously, "Luffy, leave here now and enter the Grandline, but you will pay a very painful price!"
Report chapter Comments
The Going Merry left Loguetown.
Except for Luffy, everyone was in a bad mood.
Zoro held his sword and leaned against the railing of the Merry. He asked in a hoarse voice, "Hey, Curly eyebrows, is that guy Uehara Naraku?"
This time, Zoro was dealt a greater blow.
He could still endure his defeat at Mihawk's hands before, but this time, he was defeated by Uehara with one finger…
It was really…
It was hard to accept.
Sanji slowly nodded and smoked a cigarette with a melancholy face, "I didn't expect that guy to be so strong…"
"Uehara is already very strong!"
Luffy stretched his arm and jumped to their side. He smiled and said, "When I met him three years ago, I had no strength to fight back…"
"This time is still the same!"
Nami looked at Luffy with a face full of resentment.
Just as the atmosphere of the Straw Hat Pirates was gradually enlivened by Luffy. But after they left, the atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Monkey D. Dragon, wearing a green cloak, came out of the corner of the square. He looked at Sabo, who was still fighting and shouted to stop him.
"Sabo, someone else is coming… We should go."
Because the wind outside Loguetown stopped, Dragon immediately covered the surroundings with Kenbunshoku Haki(Observation Haki) and noticed a few tricky guys!
One of them was Aokiji he was familiar.
The other few people also made Dragon feel a little familiar. They were the difficult enemies of the Revolutionary Army in the past few years.
"Yes, Mr. Dragon."
Sabo forced back Smoker's attack with one punch and retreated to Dragon's side. He wanted to leave with Dragon.
Unfortunately, it was too late.
Aokiji and Ain had already entered Loguetown's square, and several people wearing masks also appeared on the roof of the square.
A Marine Admiral!
And the natural enemy of the Revolutionary Army, the agents of the CP department!
"Marine Admiral Aokiji!"
The moment he saw Aokiji, Sabo's face immediately changed. He looked nervously at Dragon.
"Mr. Dragon!"
Sabo clenched his metal pipe and whispered, "The Admiral and the others come from the port? Then Luffy and the others…"
"Luffy has left safely."
Dragon grinned and took off his cloak, then said with a smile, "It seems that Aokiji and this group of World Government's lackeys are coming for us…"
Sabo looked at Dragon in disbelief and could not help but say, "But how could these people know Mr. Dragon…"
Even in the Revolutionary Army, not many people knew the whereabouts of Dragon, especially this time they came to see Luffy off in private!
"It should be Kabuto's work!"
Dragon still had a smile on his face. The Revolutionary Army Leader already had his own guess in his heart, and it should be the new generation of Resourceful General Kabuto.
Since Kabuto took over the CP department completely, the days of the Revolutionary Army had been very bad.
In the past few years, the fights between the CP department under Kabuto and the Revolutionary Army had never stopped. Almost every time, the Revolutionary Army would suffer a lot at Kabuto's hands.
Kabuto caught many Revolutionary Army members…
This brought him his own high position!
Dragon still had a smile on his face, but his eyes gradually became cold, "It seems that our old rival should have guessed that I will send Luffy off here…"
That guy Kabuto…
He was still so difficult to deal with!
"Well, long time no see, Dragon."
Aokiji scratched his hair and looked at Dragon in surprise, "I didn't expect you to be here…"
"Kuzan, there seems to be nothing you can think of!"
Dragon looked at Aokiji and smiled, "So it seems that they only arranged for you to catch me?"
"This difficulty is not low…"
Aokiji shook his head, and his eyes slowly fell on Sabo next to Dragon, "But… Even if we can't catch you, we have to get something else this time!"
"Hey, Kuzan!"
Smoker turned into white smoke and flew to Aokiji. He couldn't help but frown at Aokiji and said, "Can't you be a little more enthusiastic?"
Smoker and Aokiji were old friends.
The relationship between the two of them was really good.
Therefore, Smoker's rudeness to an Admiral was not taken seriously by Aokiji. He even sighed slowly, "Well, Smoker, this is not something that can be solved with enthusiasm. Dragon is not that simple…"
"Do it!"
A masked man interrupted Aokiji, "We don't have so much free time to listen to your chatter!"
These CP agents didn't care about the face of this Marine Admiral.
As he spoke, the four CP agents on the top of a house quickly jumped down and surrounded Dragon and Sabo!
"It really is the few of you…"
Dragon's eyes gradually darkened. He stared at the four CP agents and whispered, "Lightning, earth, wind, water… That guy Kabuto looks like he is determined to get my head!"
The four strongest CP agents under Kabuto!
These were the four most terrifying agents in recent years. Every time they fought, they were fearless, and they were also the best assistants for Kabuto to capture Revolutionary Army members!
"It's them!"
Sabo's expression could not help but change.
Even Sabo could not help but be nervous when he heard the code names of these four CP agents because these guys planted hatred in the hearts of every member of the Revolutionary Army!
Terry Gilteo, the Revolutionary Army Intelligence Officer.
Karasu, the commander of the Revolutionary Army North Army.
Morley, the commander of the Revolutionary Army West Army.
Ahiru, the deputy commander of the Revolutionary Army East Army.
All of these were the higher-ups of the Revolutionary Army, but all of them were taken into the Underwater Prison Impel Down by these CP agents under Kabuto's design!
To tell the truth…
Sabo now felt that they were in danger. Until now, there were not many members of the Revolutionary Army who could escape from the hands of these CP agents!
Sabo could not help but sigh in his heart. He did not expect that the price of sending Luffy off this time was so high that he and Dragon fell into such a dangerous situation!
That younger brother Luffy…
If he could not become the Pirate King, he would really be sorry!
"Sabo."
Dragon glanced at Loguetown's surroundings and lowered his voice, "This place is not suitable as a battlefield at all. When the battle begins, I will cover you to break out of the encirclement and escape immediately when you have the chance. Do you remember?"
"Mr. Dragon…"
Sabo looked at Dragon in disbelief and shook his head in a hurry, "No, after a while, I will fight with all my strength to pave the way for Mr. Dragon… Baltigo can't lose Mr. Dragon!"
"Sabo…"
A smile appeared on Dragon's lips. He shook his head and said, "It is not so easy to make me stay with only an Admiral and four CP agents!"
In the next moment, the leader of the revolutionary army was surrounded by a group of people, and he took the lead to grab the sturdy CP agent closest to him!
This CP agent had long noticed it, and his body jumped back the moment Dragon grabbed him. He stretched out a finger and rushed toward Dragon again!
"Jigokuzuki: Ippon Nukite(Hell Stab: One Fingered Assault)!"
"Dragon Claw Fist!"
Dragon palm instantly turned into a claw shape and collided with this CP agent codenamed Lightning. His sharp claws instantly smashed the fingers of this CP agent!
However, Dragon did not dare to be careless!
Because in the past few years, Dragon had faintly found some information. For example, these four CP agents codenamed Lightning, Water, Wind, and Earth; the reason why they were unafraid of death was that they would never die!
It was like a corpse!
Just as Dragon wanted to take another step forward and directly crush this man's head, a white light stopped his pursuit. The moment this light landed on the ground, it turned the slate on the ground into nothingness!
Obviously…
Once an ordinary person touched this white light, he would die without a doubt!
Another CP agent's finger instantly shot out a stream of water to attack Dragon. He laughed as he said, "Hahaha, don't be too impulsive, kid from Country of Lightning… This guy is not so easy to deal with!"
This CP agent codenamed Water launched his own attack and turned to Aokiji and the others, "Hey, you guys, how long are you going to stand there?"
"Humph!"
Smoker snorted, waved his Jitte, and rushed toward Dragon. However, before he could exchange two moves, Dragon Claw Fist pressed against his head!
Dragon's fingers were wrapped around with powerful Busoshoku Haki(Armament Haki). As long as he, the leader of the Revolutionary Army, used force, he could crush Smoker's head!
A cold air attacked Dragon!
This cold air instantly turned into ice and wrapped around Dragon's body!
It was Admiral Aokiji's ability. When his friend Smoker was in danger, Aokiji saved Smoker!
"Oh, so troublesome…"
Aokiji scratched his head and looked at Smoker, who he saved. He then said, "Smoker, go help Ain catch that yellow-haired kid. As for Dragon, leave it to us for the time being!"
"Hmn…"
Smoker slowly nodded.
This Marine Captain couldn't help but look at Dragon, who was frozen. Just now, he almost thought he was going to die in Dragon's hands!
On the other side…
Ain and Sabo also fought!
"Mr. Dragon!"
Sabo could not help but look at Dragon in shock.
In the next moment, Dragon's figure broke through the restrain!
This Revolutionary Army Leader seemed to be completely unharmed. There was still a smile on his face, "He, your freezing ability is getting more and more terrifying… Admiral Kuzan…"
"Oh, I have gotten a little interesting power recently…"
Aokiji scratched his head and slowly said, "In the face of you monsters, I feel that I am not strong enough…"
Dragon dodged the attack of a CP agent and waved his hand to control a gust of wind to force the other three CP agents back!
At this moment, Dragon's eyes finally stopped on Aokiji, and his eyes became serious, "You are too modest… You are an Admiral!"
Report chapter Comments
Aokiji was very strong.
Many years ago, Dragon had seen the young Aokiji.
At that time, Dragon didn't care much about Aokiji, this Logia-type devil fruit person. Even Aokiji was called a monster in the training camp established by Zephyr.
Now that they had just fought, Dragon immediately realized that this youngest Marine Admiral was also a real monster!
When facing Aokiji…
Dragon could feel that there was a fierce beast hidden in Aokiji's body.
"Compared to the others…"
Dragon slowly bent his fingers and turned them into claws again. His eyes became sharp, "You are really becoming more and more like a monster!"
"No!"
Aokiji slowly shook his head and clenched his fist, "Dragon, you are the real monster!"
The next moment, the two men rushed at each other at the same time.
Aokiji's body was cold. He raised his hand and slapped Dragon's body; the bone-piercing cold almost froze Dragon's body!
A strong wind suddenly rushed out from Dragon's side, quickly dispersing the cold air coming from Aokiji; his mouth still had a confident smile.
"Dragon Claw Fist!"
Dragon's sharp claws directly twisted Aokiji's arm!
In a physical battle, Dragon was confident that he wouldn't be at a disadvantage.
Because from when he was young, even if Dragon never said anything, he was very clear that his father was Monkey D. Garp, a powerful Marine who used physical skills and Haki. As Garp's son, Dragon would not relax his training of physical skills.
However, he easily grabbed Aokiji's hand, but Dragon still had some doubts. Because Aokiji didn't rely only on his fruit power.
But for the sake of his and Sabo's safety, Dragon will never show mercy to Aokiji; he will definitely break Aokiji's wrist!
"Sangosho(Coral Palm)!"
However, when Dragon grabbed Aokiji's wrist, Aokiji's palm also grabbed Dragon's wrist!
Clusters of corals grew out of Dragon's arm and wrapped around Dragon's wrist almost instantly!
In a flash…
One of Dragon's hands was sealed by the heavy coral!
It was Sanbi's power that came from Aokiji's body!
Aokiji pulled his hand away and quietly watched as Dragon's right hand was instantly wrapped up by the coral and couldn't move.
Dragon flew back and quickly clenched his left hand into a fist. He slammed it down to the corals and his eyes slowly revealed a hint of surprise, "What an interesting ability. I thought you would pursue the victory…"
"I don't think I can easily get rid of you."
Aokiji calmly shook his head and spread out his palm: "Before this town is turned into ruins, it won't be so easy to catch you…"
After all…
Dragon was the most dangerous man in the world!
The danger of Monkey. D. Dragon was not only in the ideas he spread but also in his own strength. Otherwise, the World Government would not chase him for more than ten years and still fail to capture him!
What's more, Aokiji's original task was to stop Dragon and buy time for Ain and Smoker to capture Sabo.
Dragon looked at Sabo, Ain, and Smoker, who were next to him, and then at the four CP agents who continued to surround him. His figure was like a ghost as he shuttled between the enemies who surrounded him!
A gust of wind drove the dark clouds to gather toward Loguetown. Among the lightning and thunder in the sky, the rain fell like a torrential downpour!
Dragon's voice gradually became uncertain in the rainstorm, "If you don't try, how do you know?"
The torrential rain not only did not stop the battle but also made the battle between them become fierce again!
This battle to encircle and suppress the leader and officer of the Revolutionary Army has finally started to heat up!
However, this was not what Dragon wanted!
For Dragon, once the battle was unfavorable, he and Sabo might face a life and death crisis. It may even let the Revolutionary Army suffer a major setback!
A CP agent codenamed Earth suddenly opened his mouth and reminded, "Be careful, Monkey D. Dragon might use the weather to escape with that little brat…"
Unfortunately, his warning was a step too late!
A bolt of lightning tore through the dark sky!
The torrential rain seemed to gather into a curtain of rain as it descended. Everyone's line of sight was obstructed, and they were even unable to see what was happening on the battlefield clearly!
A surging wave of Haoshoku Haki(Conqueror's Haki) instantly erupted!
Everyone couldn't help but frown, they could only rely on their own strength to resist Haoshoku Haki(Conqueror's Haki)'s venting, and they had to put away their senses!
Just at this time, Dragon's figure broke through the encirclement of four CP agents and Aokiji. He then moved next to Sabo, punched Ain, and kicked Smoker away!
"Let's go!"
Dragon whispered.
After saying that, Dragon jumped up to the roof, and Sabo followed Dragon without hesitation!
Two shadows flew on top of Loguetown's houses in the rain, and they could disappear at any time in this weather!
Even Aokiji could do nothing about it!
In such bad weather, no one knew where Dragon and Sabo would hide. As long as they could hide, even if the marine searched the entire Loguetown, they might not be able to find their traces again!
And…
Loguetown was not a small place!
The size of this place was even comparable to the capital of a country!
By the time the marine in the Loguetown branch moved out, Dragon and Sabo would have already left by ship!
Just as Dragon and Sabo were rushing forward, they felt a ray of sunlight fall on them and illuminate the road for Aokiji and the CP agents to chase after and also provide Dragon and Sabo positions.
The sky gradually became bright…
A strong wind blew in the air, and the sunlight illuminated Loguetown's street. The weather that was just raining heavily suddenly became clear again.
This strange weather change…
It was simply…
It was indescribably strange!
Even in a place like the Grandline, where the wind was unpredictable, it was impossible for such a strange weather change to happen. It was clearly raining a second ago!
This way…
Sabo and Dragon, who were still running, could no longer hide. Aokiji, Smoker, Ain, and the four CP agents quickly chased after them!
"Something is wrong; there is someone else!"
Dragon's expression suddenly changed. He turned his head and looked in the direction of Loguetown's port, "He can actually reverse the weather with his own strength…"
"Mr. Dragon."
Sabot suddenly clenched the metal pipe in his hand, and he immediately made a decision in his heart. The 20-year-old young Revolutionary Army said in a deep voice.
"Mr. Dragon, there are obviously more dangerous enemies in this town. Please leave here immediately, and I will cover for you!"
After that, Sabo no longer hesitated.
Sabo didn't continue to follow Dragon; instead, he turned around and faced Aokiji and the others. He just wanted to make himself an abandoned thing!
Because it was impossible for the two of them to escape.
"Hey, Sabo, I don't need a little kid like you…"
Dragon didn't even have time to stop Sabo, and his face became a little gloomy; the next moment, he gritted his teeth and fled far away!
If he brings Sabo with him…
Dragon really didn't think they had a chance to escape.
However, if he fought with Aokiji and CP agents in Loguetown, he might not be able to end the battle in a week.
At that time, the World Government's reinforcements would probably arrive as well.
And as long as Sabo has not been locked up by World Government in Impel Down, Dragon has plenty of ways to save Sabo!
And it was not without precedent that the Revolutionary Army members were rescued…
Kabuto had captured many of the Revolutionary Army members in the past few years.
So some of the Revolutionary Army members were rescued by the Revolutionary Army while being escorted by the marine, which also made Fleet Admiral Sengoku lose a lot of face in front of the Five Elder Stars…
Obviously, the Revolutionary Army members that the CP members worked hard to catch escape when they were escorted by the marine, but there was no problem when the marine escorted pirates…
In order to compete for power and profit, Kabuto did not hesitate to damage World Government's interests…
These big hats would be put on Sengoku's head from time to time, making this Marine Fleet Admiral very anxious for a while.
These things about the Revolutionary Army were also the reason why many people thought that the Sengoku could not be promoted to the position of the World Government Commander-in-Chief.
After Dragon escaped, Sabo went to meet Aokiji and the CP agents. He was directly injured and caught in a few rounds.
A CP agent codenamed Windprepared thick golden shackles for Sabo to imprison this Revolutionary Army officer.
"Hey, hey, hey!"
The corner of Sabo's eyes could not help but twitch. He raised his palm and looked at the golden shackles tied to his body with a speechless face, "You actually used gold to make shackles. Isn't your CP department too extravagant?"
"Don't belittle yourself…"
A CP agent casually shook his head and said in a low voice, "With your identity, it is nothing even if we use a ton of gold as your prison cell…
Although, according to our investigation, your position should have just been promoted not long ago. It can also be called the biggest person we have caught."
Revolutionary Army's chief of staff, Sabo!
This young man, who was second only to the Revolutionary Army Leader, was captured by the CP agent and an Admiral in Loguetown after he sent his brother off!
Report chapter Comments
At Loguetown's port.
Smoker had a face full of displeasure as he held his cigar in his mouth. Because he saw Uehara in a marine uniform, he also knew that this guy had a higher rank than him.
Three years ago, Uehara was still a member of a criminal organization, Baroque Works. Three years later, Uehara transformed into Marine Vice Admiral.
Not to mention Smoker didn't understand…
Even Sabo did not understand.
How did this Uehara Naraku do it?
This guy was just a nobody three years ago. He wanted to be a good person in Baroque Works. How did he become a Marine Vice Admiral?
"Hehehe, I really didn't expect this…"
When Sabo saw Uehara, a smile appeared on his face, "We actually met again under such circumstances, Mr. Uehara…"
"Yes!"
Uehara held a glass of juice in his hand. He then shook his head and sighed, "I never thought that this would happen when we meet again…"
"…"
Aokiji's expression was subtle.
Uehara seemed to be surprised by what he said… However, wasn't this guy the one who made the plan to capture Sabo?
"I am going to hunt down Straw Hat Luffy."
Smoker puffed out a smoke ring with a cigar in his mouth and casually said, "That Straw Hat Luffy must be a dangerous person. I must not let him go like this. You will be responsible for escorting this Revolutionary Army's chief of staff!"
A Marine Captain dared to speak to the Admiral and Vice Admiral in such an unbridled manner. Smoker's loose cannon tendencies were undoubtedly exposed.
However, Smoker's knowledge was not wrong.
Because Smoker had personally seen Monkey D. Luffy face him with a calm smile just like Gol D. Roger before he died, he didn't care about the life and death crisis at all and completely gave his life to this sea to decide.
Straw Hat Luffy would definitely be a dangerous person when he grew up in the future.
Uehara shook his head slowly and said, "Captain Smoker, you and Admiral Aokiji will be responsible for escorting Mr. Sabo. I will go hunt down Straw Hat Pirates…"
"Huh?"
Smoker's eyebrows twisted, and he looked at Uehara with some displeasure, "Straw Hat Luffy escaped from my jurisdiction; what does it have to do with you…"
"I am a Marine Vice Admiral."
Uehara took a sip of juice and looked at Smoker, "You are only a Marine Captain who is stationed in Loguetown…"
"Huh? a Marine Vice Admiral who hides in battle?"
Smoker couldn't help but show a touch of contempt on his face. He already knew that when the battle between Dragon and Sabo began, Uehara Naraku, a Marine Vice Admiral, was hiding at Loguetown's port.
Smoker didn't care about Aokiji and Ain's faces and continued coldly, "Why don't you go and ask the gentlemen in Marineford when have I obeyed the orders of my superiors? Tashigi, prepare the warship to set off immediately!"
"Ah… this?"
Standing next to Smoker, the young female Marine Officer couldn't help but hesitate.
Was there really no problem in disobeying orders in front of a Vice Admiral?
However, under Smoker's gaze, Tashigi could only nod carefully. She was going to inform the soldiers at the base to prepare their warships.
To tell the truth…
Tashigi was still more afraid of Smoker.
Because Uehara looked like a kind person.
"Ain…"
Uehara took a sip of juice and turned to look at the beautiful adjutant beside him, "Captain Smoker of Loguetown base and his subordinates…"
"Wait!"
Aokiji scratched his head, looked at Smoker, and said, "Smoker, we will be responsible for escorting the Revolutionary Army's chief of staff. As for the matter of chasing the Straw Hat Luffy, leave it to Vice Admiral Uehara."
"Huh?"
Smoker looked at Aokiji with surprise.
Aokiji rubbed his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, "Compared to the fledgling Straw Hat Luffy, the identity of the Revolutionary Army's chief of staff is more important… Carry out the order; otherwise, I can use my title as an Admiral to conduct military law against you!"
This sentence was unprecedentedly harsh.
It was not like Aokiji's temper at all.
It was also the first time Smoker saw Aokiji say such harsh words. After frowning, he finally let go of the dispute with Uehara.
Uehara didn't continue to pursue the matter. He took a deep look at Smoker before leaving Loguetown with his subordinates and slowly chased after the Straw Hat Pirates.
This way of doing things…
It was more like traveling.
Just as Uehara was still pursuing Luffy, the World Government had already received the news that Sabo, the Revolutionary Army's chief of staff, had been arrested while the Revolutionary Army's leader Monkey D. Dragon had escaped.
Enies Lobby.
Kabuto sat in his office, holding a Den Den Mushi in his hand. He smiled and said, "I just wanted to try to find out the traces of Dragon, the Revolutionary Army's leader. I didn't expect that I would really succeed this time…"
"Well done."
An old man's voice came out of the Den Den Mushi. He praised and continued, "This is a rare opportunity; unfortunately, we only caught the Revolutionary Army's chief of staff…"
When he said this, the old man in the Den Den Mushi showed a hint of dissatisfaction, "If you only notify the marine in advance and dispatch enough people together, perhaps you will be able to catch Dragon this time…"
"Sir, I have already informed them."
Kabuto continued to explain without changing his expression, "After I deduct this information, I immediately informed Fleet Admiral Sengoku and hoped that he could send three Marine Admirals to go together and capture the Revolutionary Army's leader…"
When Kabuto said this, his face showed a little regret, "But Fleet Admiral Sengoku thinks that it is a waste to deploy the marine headquarters highest combat power in an imaginary speculation."
"He is not wrong to say that…"
If the Five Elder Stars knew this in advance, they would certainly not agree to transfer the three strongest of the Marine to Loguetown in order to catch Dragon.
Because this is too outrageous!
As a result, Revolutionary Army actually appeared in Loguetown, and even the leader and the second in command of the Revolutionary Army appeared. This really made the Five Elder Stars regretful!
If they knew that today's matter would happen like this, they would directly issue an order to Sengoku. The entire marine must unconditionally cooperate with the CP department!
After all…
Once they caught the Revolutionary Army's leader, Monkey D. Dragon, and the Revolutionary Army's chief of staff, Sabo, the Revolutionary Army's existence was completely unnecessary!
The old man in the Den Den Mushi couldn't help but sigh and said, "Forget it. Kabuto, don't care about this. In the future, if you need to mobilize an Admiral, you can apply to us, and we will give you the right to mobilize.
Now, on behalf of the World Government, we will promote you to be the Chief Inspector of the Marine Headquarters, with the power to supervise and command all Vice Admirals and below at any time! "
"Yes."
Kabuto pushed his glasses and continued to speak to the Den Den Mushi, "I already have a plan on my side recently… This plan is very likely to catch the Revolutionary Army in one fell swoop and show the majesty of World Government to the whole sea!"
"Tell me…"
The old man in the Den Den Mushi was curious.
"Public execution."
Kabuto smiled and said, "Announce to the whole world that World Government publicly punished all the officers of the Revolutionary Army in Marineford's headquarters!
However, it is difficult to guarantee that this incident will draw out Dragon again. According to my understanding of the Revolutionary Army in the past few years, Dragon might sit by and watch his subordinates die…"
This was actually quite difficult.
Because the Revolutionary Army was actually the least afraid of sacrifice.
Dragon, the leader of the Revolutionary Army, has been engaged in the free revolution for so many years. He doesn't know how many comrades have been sacrificed. He may have long been used to it…
If he wanted to lure Dragon and the Revolutionary Army out, in fact, it's quite difficult to achieve by just using the Revolutionary Army officers who were caught by the CP agents.
"Even you are not confident?"
The old man in the Den Den Mushi could not help but hesitate, "If we can't lure out Dragon, is the purpose of this just to warn the people in the sea to be honest?"
"No, executing the officers of the Revolutionary Army is only a part of the plan."
Kabuto smiled and slowly continued, "When we execute the Revolutionary Army's officers, we will execute an important member of another powerful force in the sea and find a way to force that powerful force in the sea to come to disturb the execution…"
When Kabuto said this, he chuckled and continued, "If the Revolutionary Army thinks that they can have an ally who can act together, the probability of drawing them out is not low at all…"
"The person you want to catch… is an important member of Yonko(Four Emperors) Pirate Group?"
The old man in the Den Den Mushi hesitated and said in a deep voice, "In this case, the World Government and the marine will face a world-class war!"
"Yes…"
Kabuto's voice suddenly became serious. He explained in a low voice, "Since the beginning of this year, new pirates in the sea have continued to emerge…
As long as we win, we can use World Government's name to intimidate the countries in the sea again, showing the strength of the World Government. This plan is the most advantageous to the World Government, and I judge that our odds of winning are not low!"
"This plan…"
The old man in the Den Den Mushi was still hesitating.
After a long time, there were several old people arguing on the phone. They were the most powerful people in the world and also at the apex of the World Government.
After arguing for a while, these old men finally gave orders to Kabuto, "Kabuto; then, according to your ideas, start to collect intelligence slowly, and find a suitable ally for the Revolutionary Army and Dragon!"
"Yes, I have one more thing…"
When Kabuto said this, he could not help but smile, "Fleet Admiral Sengoku secretly promoted a Marine Captain to Vice Admiral, but this Vice Admiral did not play any role in Loguetown's battle…"
Report chapter Comments
Marineford.
In the Marine Fleet Admiral Office.
Sengoku put down the Den Den Mushi in his hand. His face was surprisingly ugly, and he even looked a little angry, which made the people next to him couldn't help but feel a little shocked.
As Fleet Admiral, Sengoku basically never lost his temper in Marineford unless he was angered by his old friend Garp to the point of exploding.
"Did something happen?"
A look of worry appeared on Tsuru's face.
"It's fine."
Sengoku adjusted his glasses and snorted, "That little brat Kabuto made a small report in front of those old guys from the World Government. What a childish method…"
However, this kind of childish method was very effective.
In the call just now, the Five Elder Stars directly asked the Sengoku and the marine to cooperate with Kabuto's CP department unconditionally and accused Sengoku of recklessly promoting a weak person like Uehara Naraku.
Sengoku closed his palm and said with an ugly face, "Starting tomorrow, Kabuto will be relieved of the position of Marine Staff Officer and will serve as the Chief Inspector of the Marine Headquarters.
This new Chief Inspector has the authority to order all Vice Admiral and below. He can even mobilize Buster Call to any country or island in the world…"
This power…
He could already challenge this Marine Fleet Admiral!
Tsuru couldn't help but frown when she heard this, "If that's the case, whose orders should those little guys listen to in the future?"
"The marine already has a different voice."
Sengoku shook his head and sighed, "Tsuru, in these past few years, many people have chosen to support him. It's just that we thought that he was the future of the marine and did not see through this ambitious little guy…"
Kabuto was willing to do anything in order to obtain power.
This was also the most painful thing for Sengoku.
The fall of a new generation of Wise General meant that the future of the marine might be uncertain. The most troublesome thing was that this Kabuto had a very high probability of becoming the superior of the entire marine…
Kabuto was not very strong, but he was very intelligent, so he became the best chess piece in the hands of the Five Elder Stars.
Because once Kabuto showed any abnormal momentum, the Five Elder Stars could easily get rid of him. This kind of person who could bring great benefits to the World Government but was very easy to control just happened to be the talent that the Five Elder Stars needed the most.
Especially this time, Kabuto's plan…
Although because of the lack of cooperation of the marine, the leader of the Revolutionary Army, Monkey. D. Dragon, escapes the capture operation. He even leaves the second in command of the Revolutionary Army and escapes in a sorry state which was a big loss for the World Government in capturing the number one criminal.
This time…
The marine was being held accountable, but Kabuto was promoted.
"In fact, you can't say that…"
Tsuru sighed faintly and comforted her old friend, "Little Kabuto's temper is not that bad. At least everything he has done has not violated justice… Moreover, he has been working hard for the marine in the past few years!"
"…"
Sengoku was speechless for a moment.
Indeed.
There was nothing to criticize about Kabuto's actions in the past few years. It was because of this that Sengoku felt even more bitter. He could not pick out Kabuto's problem.
Everyone clearly knows that Kabuto has changed…
But when he was about to criticize Kabuto, he found that there was nothing wrong with him, not even a little tail that was caught by someone.
Every time Sengoku confronted Kabuto, it always made people feel that he is attacking political enemies in order to promote himself to the commander-in-chief of the army…
He was obviously doing this for the future of the marine!
"Forget it; let's not talk about this anymore."
Sengoku picked up a document on the table and fed it to the little goat beside him. He sighed and said, "Tomorrow, Kabuto will come to Marineford. We will have a secret meeting.
The Five Old Stars hope that we cooperate with the CP department and take the initiative to launch a war to capture a Yonko(Four Emperors) Pirate Group and the Revolutionary Army…"
"Initiate a war with Yonko(Four Emperors) Pirate Group?"
Tsuru furrowed her brows and said, "Those five old fellows must have gone crazy. The sea is barely able to maintain its balance."
"Tsuru…"
Sengoku shook his head. His expression gradually turned heavy, "This kind of balance is never what the marine wants. We only have one goal, to end the great pirate era that Gol D. Roger opened and let justice rule the world…"
Just as Marineford's two old people were discussing the order of the Five Elder Stars with a heavy expression which was too exhausting for the two of them. Kabuto, who proposed to start the war, was still leisurely drinking afternoon tea in Enies Lobby.
Enies Lobby.
In the Supreme Commander's office.
Kabuto and Nico Robin were playing chess.
In the past few years, Nico Robin had been staying in Enies Lobby, helping Kabuto to clear out all original agents of the CP department bit by bit and slowly put Wano Country's Anbu in.
Dove occupies a magpie's nest.
Akatsuki's members seem to be very good at this trick.
"Miss Robin, you lost."
Kabuto put down the chess piece in his hand and calmly adjusted his glasses, "What a pity. In the future, we can no longer play chess as leisurely as we are now…"
"Yes…"
Nico Robin nodded slowly and whispered, "Tomorrow, I'll be heading to the sea at the entrance of the Grandline…"
Kabuto looked up at Nico Robin and said, "I heard that Naraku-sama ordered you to go to the sea at the entrance of the Grandline and find a way to join the Straw Hat Pirates?"
"That's right."
Nico Robin nodded and whispered, "According to Mr. Uehara's order, I will guide them step by step to fight against the world until the pirate Straw Hat Luffy is eligible to be publicly executed by the marine…"
"Is that so?"
Kabuto pushed up his glasses and smiled, "I can give you some good suggestions here. A war will start in our hands soon. It's better to be faster, and don't let him miss this feast…"
"Huh?"
There was some doubt in Nico Robin's eyes.
Kabuto spread out his palm and continued with a smile, "According to the plan that I am about to implement in the future, the Revolutionary Army's chief of staff, Sabo, will enter the list of public execution.
During this period of time, Portgas D. Ace, the Captain of Whitebeard Pirates 2nd Division, has entered the first half of the Grandline. According to my calculations, he has also become a chess piece that fell into our trap."
Kabuto grabbed a chess piece on the chessboard and slowly held it in his hand. The smile on the corner of his mouth was a little strange, "I heard that Straw Hat Luffy is the sworn brother of the two of them. I want the three of them to reunite on Impel Down and the execution platform. Let's not waste their brotherhood… Miss Robin, what do you think?"
"…"
A drop of cold sweat appeared on Nico Robin's forehead.
Wasn't this kind of thing a bit too cruel?
How could three brothers reunite on the execution platform?
To be honest, as Nico Robin and Kabuto stayed together for more and more time, she gradually discovered how terrifying the number one subordinate of Uehara was. Even Nico Robin occasionally feared Kabuto's methods.
"I will try my best."
Nico Robin nodded slowly.
Kabuto looked at Nico Robin and continued with a smile, "If you need anything, the CP department is all our people. You can ask them to cooperate at any time. The agents of the CP9 are your old subordinates and have been following your orders."
"Yes."
Nico Robin nodded and whispered, "I understand. When I see Straw Hat Luffy, I will let them cooperate with me…"
"Actually, this kind of thing is not so complicated…"
Kabuto slowly released his palm and placed the chess piece in his palm back on the chessboard, "Let Straw Hat Luffy kill a Celestial Dragon; this charge must be enough…"
"…"
Nico Robin's expression was subtle.
When this Kabuto said that he was going to kill a Celestial Dragon, it was as if he was saying that he was going to slaughter livestock. He didn't put the Celestial Dragons in his eyes at all!
Even Nico Robin didn't dare to ignore the World Nobles!
Looking at Nico Robin's expression, Kabuto smiled and pushed up the frame on his nose. He said in a low voice, "There's nothing to be surprised about, right?"
"That's a World Noble…"
Nico Robin frowned and said, "Even if they are just attacked or even frightened, there will be an Admiral from the Marine Headquarters to help…"
Well, it seems that there was nothing to be surprised about…
Because all the Admirals was a member of Akatsuki!
"The life of the Celestial Dragons is indeed important to World Government."
Kabuto shook his head and continued with a smile, "Because the only use of this group of Celestial Dragons is to use their lives to use Mary Geoise's sacred artifact. Unfortunately, Akatsuki does not need Mary Geoise's sacred artifact."
Kabuto's eyes gradually revealed a glimmer of light, "Right now, this world is about to undergo a drastic change, and after this world changes, it is the new world that Akatsuki wants."
At this point, Kabuto's gaze darkened again, "Before the new world appears, everything in the old world will be swept clean. Before this group of Celestial Dragons is executed by Naraku-sama, Miss Robin might as well use their trash lives!"
"…"
Nico Robin still frowned. She slowly shook her head and said softly, "Let's wait until I see the members of the Straw Hat Pirate. I don't really like this…"
She hasn't seen anyone yet…
This could be considered directly controlling their fate from a distance, right?
At least she has to see what kind of people Straw Hat Luffy and his companions were, lest there were some innocent people implicated like in Ohara.
"You don't like this?"
Kabuto touched his chin and smiled, "That's right, maybe they are also a good group of friends for Miss Robin!"
After saying that, Kabuto smiled and continued, "Oh, by the way, there is one more thing, I might need to remind you. Don't fall too deep into the pit like Sasuke-kun and can't tell the truth from the fake…"
Sasuke was a negative example of an undercover agent.
They clearly wanted Sasuke to be an undercover agent that went deep into Whitebeard Pirates' inner circle, but in the end, this guy actually perfectly integrated into Whitebeard Pirates. Sometimes, he even forgot his own identity.
Originally, Sasuke stood at a very high position…
However, this guy chose to jump into the mire on his own.
"Forget it; maybe I was too talkative."
Kabuto tapped his finger on the chessboard and smiled, "Miss Robin is a chess player, so she shouldn't think about jumping into the chessboard and turning into a chess piece being manipulated…"

Grand Line, Twin Cape.
The voice of the Whale Laboon echoed in the sea.
The Straw Hat Pirates have just come here through Reverse Mountain's rising current. Luffy and Whale Laboon have an agreement before leaving Twin Cape and officially entering Grand Line.
Crocus sat on Twin Cape lighthouse and looked at the fading Going Marry. He rubbed his lens and said, "Straw Hat Luffy is really a lively little guy. I feel that he can do more than that little brat Shanks in the sea…"
Just as Crocus was still reminiscing about the past, a warship washed down along the waves of the Reverse Mountain and was about to hit Laboon head-on!
A figure suddenly flew out of the warship!
The figure suddenly kicked Laboon, sending the huge whale flying. This scene made Crocus frown.
'This scene…'
'It seems to be a little familiar?'
Three years ago, there seemed to be a guy who kicked Laboon like this. Although this kind of behavior was relatively bad, it also made Laboon not dare to float out of the water easily and hit the Red Line due to fear of humans…
On the warship.
Ain looked at Uehara with more subtle eyes.
Uehara took the juice from Ain's hand and slowly said, "Let's go, let's ask the caretaker of the Twin Cape lighthouse if he has seen the Straw Hat Pirates…"
Twin Cape, under the lighthouse.
Crocus sat on the chair and looked at Uehara, who was walking toward him with a strange expression. Wasn't this man who kicked Laboon away three years ago?
Was it him who kicked Laboon away?
Did this guy become a marine now?
Was this marine crazy? The marine warship could freely pass through the Calm Belt and enter the Grand Line, but why did he have to go through the Reverse Mountains?
Uehara slowly sipped his juice and looked at Crocus, "Old man, have you seen the Straw Hat Pirates in front of us? Which route did they take?"
"…"
Crocus shook his head in silence.
Uehara tilted his head and looked at Crocus. He continued, "You don't know… or you just did not want to say it?"
"…"
Crocus shook his head in silence. He pointed at his mouth, indicating that he was mute.
Uehara's expression was subtle.
Does this Crocus think he was funny? Forget it. Anyway, Uehara himself was just here to find fault and arrest Crocus.
"Catch him and lock him up in Impel Down."
Uehara's words made Crocus want to curse.
Just as Crocus was about to say something, a group of marines held their guns against his body and brought him onto the warship.
"Vice Admiral Naraku …"
Ain looked a little confused.
The beautiful adjutant didn't understand why Uehara wanted to capture such an innocent lighthouse caretaker.
Uehara shook his head and didn't explain too much.
The identity of this lighthouse caretaker was not so simple. He was a great helper in the making of Gol D. Roger to become the Pirate King, and he has won enough life for Roger to become the Pirate King.
Uehara just wants to use the ship doctor of Roger Pirates to try to attract Rayleigh to join the War of the Best in the future…
Just as Uehara left with the Twin Cape lighthouse caretaker, the Straw Hat Pirates didn't know what happened to Crocus after they left. Their group who entered the Grand Line just began to face the wind and rain of the Grand Line…
However, with the help of the Navigator Nami, the Straw Hat Pirates still managed to break out safely and arrive at the Grand Line's first stop, which was the Whiskey Peak that was pointed to by the Log Pose pointer obtained from Crocus.
Even though the Baroque Works have vanished, the pirate hunters gathered at Whiskey Peak were still maintaining their business of robbing pirates…
Things have changed a little bit…
The backer behind the pirate hunters of Whiskey Peak was now King Cobra of Alabasta.
After all, only by cutting off the source of pirates from Whiskey Peak could Alabasta prevent being invaded by more pirates because Alabasta didn't have the hero Crocodile to help them clean up the foreign pirates!
Unfortunately, the Straw Hat Pirates are a tough group…
Early the next morning, the Straw Hat Pirates took Princess Vivi patrolling Whiskey Peak because they were going to Alabasta to defeat King Cobra…
When this matter developed to this point…
Uehara couldn't help but scratch his head.
Especially what happened to the Straw Hat Pirates on their second stop in Little Garden made it even more obvious that King Cobra was a big villain…
This island was completely flattened by Uehara.
Now, this island has become a natural battle arena; no matter which pirate wants to fight, they can do it in this battle arena. In other terms, a place to lure the pirates into killing each other.
Now, the people who ruled the battle arena were the Giant Warrior Pirates, and they were almost unmatched here.
And because this place was naturally suitable for giants to fight, the Giant Warrior Pirates didn't have any other thoughts, and they didn't go out to rob. These giants just guarded the battle arena and even helped to deal with some arrogant and bloodthirsty pirates…
The Straw Hat Pirates made a scene on the island.
Monkey D. Luffy desperately defeated the giants who were chasing after them while dragging his seriously injured body and the Straw Hat pirates to escape Little Garden…
When Uehara arrived here, he reported to Marineford what happened here and helped raise Straw Hat Luffy's bounty to 130 Million Beli.
Since he was dragging his seriously injured body, a ship doctor was naturally needed.
Fortunately, Princess Vivi pointed out the way for them and led them to the medical country, Drum Kingdom.
Along the way, the members of the Straw Hat Pirates also learned from Princess Vivi that Cobra was a king who loved the people like children and let go of their dispute.
Drum Kingdom.
Because Drum Kingdom's civilians were forced to crowdfund a million Beli to kill the previous brutal king, Wapol, their lives have gradually become richer in the past few years.
When the new King Dalton saw the Straw Hat Pirates' flag, he did not intend to attack them but eagerly led them to find Doctor Kureha.
When they went to Dr. Kureha's house, Nami Nami looked at Dalton with faint suspicion, "These guys… don't tell me they are plotting something?"
"Don't worry!"
"Mr. Luffy is Mr. Ace's younger brother, right? We just want to thank Luffy's elder brother Portgas D. Ace for his kindness."
"Last week, our country was invaded by a pirate, Blackbeard Marshall D. Teach. Fortunately, Mr. Ace and Mr. Sasuke helped us drive him away. I have a letter from Mr. Ace to Mr. Luffy."
This matter was really fate.
Last week, Teach led his newly established Blackbeard Pirate to the Drum Kingdom. Before he could stay here for a day, Sasuke and Ace chased after him. So Teach could only escape in a hurry.
At this time, Teach didn't want to meet Sasuke at all. No matter how brave he was, he wouldn't bet on something that would kill him!
However, Teach wasn't all for nothing!
On this Drum Kingdom, Teach confirmed his body and also his ambition to obtain Gura Gura no Mi(Tremor-Tremor Fruit)'s ability!
On the raft of the Blackbeard Pirates.
This newly established pirate group didn't have many people, and they didn't even have a ship that belonged to them. They only relied on this raft for the time being.
Teach's face was no longer as confident as before, and he was faintly worried, "If this continues, I feel that we will be overtaken by Sasuke sooner or later. At that time, if I fight with Sasuke, I don't have much confidence…"
"Then let's try to lead the disaster to the east!"
Black Zetsu's voice sounded in Teach's ears.
Teach really doesn't know what to do. If not for Black Zetsu threatening Sasuke in secret…
Teach would have been cut in half by Sasuke!
Black Zetsu's body crawled out from Teach's arm and said in a sinister voice, "The strongest people in the first half of the Grand Line are Shichibukai and the marine. Let them help us deal with Sasuke and Ace…"
"Zehahaha, this is not easy!"
Teach could not help but laugh, "There are not many people in the first half of the Grand Line who can defeat Sasuke… Sasuke is a monster that can overturn a Yonko(Four Emperors)!"
"It's really bad…"
The ship doctor of the Blackbeard Pirates said weakly, "I didn't expect that after I just joined your pirate group, I would face the pursuit of Red-Eyed Sasuke and Fire Fist Ace. I think we should divide the materials on the ship and disband here…"
"Doc Q, there are some things that can not be said…"
Another new member of the Blackbeard Pirates smiled and whispered, "Doesn't this also mean that our captain is not a simple character?
Not everyone is qualified to make those monsters in the New World chase after them, not to mention that our captain is facing the pursuit of the former supernova pirates…"
"Laffitte, you are really not afraid of death…"
The Blackbeard ship doctor, Doc Q, reached out and took out an apple from his basket. He shakily handed it to the speaking Laffitte, "Why don't you try and see if you can survive after eating the apple? If you can survive, we will continue to move forward. If you die, we will have one less resource…"
"Zehahaha… okay."
Blackbeard stopped the dispute between his crew. He still had a confident smile on his face, "What we need to do now is to find a way to get in touch with the marine. It is best to solve a Shichibukai and let me take the position…"
"Speaking of which, I have received a piece of information."
Black Zetsu's body slowly moved, and his hoarse voice fell into the ears of everyone, "White Zetsu, who is lurking in Marineford, has sent a report. It is said that the most powerful person in the marine is a guy called Kabuto…"
"Zehahaha, I remember it very clearly!"
Teach nodded in a hurry, and the smile on his face almost could not be suppressed, "I must find a way to get in touch with Kabuto… Because the last time we were in the worst situation along with Sasuke, it was because of this Kabuto!"
