One Piece: From Picking Up Red Hair's Broken Arm

Chapter 106 Generals are dispatched
The young staff officer standing opposite him subconsciously straightened his back and said, "Reporting to the Marshal, all deployed intelligence teams have not yet reported any sightings."

"But please don't worry."

He quickly stepped forward and pointed out several marked points on the battle map. "The islands surrounding Whiskey Peak, such as Drum Island, Thor Island, and Gaya Island, have all been controlled. In addition..."

The staff officer's finger moved towards the location of the Kingdom of Alabasta.

"Considering the high probability that they obtained the Permanent Pointer from Crocodile, we have also arranged surveillance personnel at several major ports along the Saint Dora River."

"As soon as there is any news from anywhere, I will report it to you immediately!"

Zhan Guo stared at the red marks on the map, his brows furrowed tighter and tighter.

These deployments seemed to be as tight as a dragnet, but that cunning guy seemed to have evaporated without a trace. Could it be that...

He shifted his gaze downwards, landing on an inconspicuous island on the slanting side of Whiskey Mountain. "Did Little Garden send anyone?"

"there?"

The staff officer was stunned. "No ships usually dare to pass by. Not to mention the threat of the island-eating goldfish, it would take a whole year just to record the magnetic field on the island, so we just..."

Brubru~
The Den Den Mushi on the desk suddenly chirped urgently, interrupting the staff officer's words.

"Hello? I'm Zhan Guo, go ahead."

Zhan Guo picked up the phone and after listening for a moment, his expression suddenly changed. "Really? Are you sure?"

"It is absolutely true, Marshal!"

An excited voice rang out from the other end of the phone, "We've been waiting for three full days, and just half an hour ago we saw with our own eyes that the ship of the Ender Pirates has already landed at Tor Island!"

"Where are the people now?" Zhan Guo asked immediately.

"They went straight into the city and went to various entertainment venues to spend lavishly. It seems they're planning to indulge themselves here for a few days! If we send someone over now, we'll definitely be able to make it in time, Marshal!"

The air in the room froze instantly.

Zhan Guo slowly stood up and gave an order in a deep voice: "Notify the three generals to come to my office immediately."

"Yes!"

The young staff officer saluted and left with excitement on his face.

Less than ten minutes.

In the Marshal's office, three of the Navy Headquarters' strongest fighters appeared one after another.

Aokiji lazily leaned against the door frame, his eye mask still tilted, having obviously just been woken from his sleep: "Ah la la... It's so late, do you still want us to work overtime?"

"There's nothing I can do~~"

Kizaru sat on the sofa with his legs crossed, slowly trimming his nails:

"After all, the momentum of that newcomer is really terrifying. He killed Spider Demon and the Seven Warlords of the Sea right after going out to sea..."

He dragged out the last syllable and said with a smile, "If I were the marshal, I'd have a headache and sleepless nights if I allowed this kind of guy to continue to develop recklessly, right?"

"Shut up, Borsalino."

Zhan Guo glared at him and said, "Let's get down to business. You all know the situation. We can't suppress the news of Crocodile's death for much longer. We must arrest this gang before public opinion spreads!"

"The lives of the others don't matter, but we should try to capture the two, the swordsman Shanuo and the renegade hunter Smoker, alive. On the premise of ensuring this, who among you is willing to go?"

"Ah la la..."

Aokiji yawned and raised his hand lazily, "Then I'll go. I've been on vacation for a while and haven't exercised for a long time..."

"No, I'll go."

Before he could finish his words, he was suddenly interrupted by a deep voice.

Aokiji and Kizaru were both slightly startled, and turned to look at the person who had been silent since entering——

Akainu stepped out from the shadows, his eyes beneath the brim of his hat showing indifference:

"If I remember correctly, Kuzan, you and Smoker had a good relationship, right? Can you completely harden your heart towards your former friend... You really can't be trusted on this point."

"What do you mean?" Aokiji frowned slightly.

"literal meaning."

Akainu's face was expressionless. "This kind of scum, who has committed many evil deeds and endangers justice, should be completely eradicated. I don't want some people to let the turtle in the jar escape because of personal feelings."

"Personal feelings?" Aokiji raised an eyebrow and sneered, "Are you referring to your eagerness to avenge Spider-Ghost?"

"Ghost Spider is our comrade-in-arms, and he died while upholding justice. Shouldn't we avenge him?" The two of them stared coldly into each other's eyes, and for a moment, the situation was quite tense.

"This atmosphere..." Kizaru blew away the crumbs on his nails and shrank into the corner of the sofa: "It's really scary~"

"Sakaski!"

Zhan Guo stopped him sternly, "Have you forgotten what I just said? You can go if you want, but you must try to capture him alive. This is an order, do you hear me?"

"……I see."

Akainu was silent for a moment, then suddenly nodded and turned towards the door: "But Marshal, the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing. If you have no choice, don't expect me to show mercy to the traitors."

After saying this, he strode out the door.

“…” Aokiji narrowed his eyes slightly.

In the end, he didn't say anything and followed him out the door, but in another direction.

Zhan Guo watched the two disappearing figures, then glanced at Kizaru who was still concentrating on trimming his nails. He sighed and sat back at his desk, which was piled high with documents...

------

At dawn, the morning mist in the small garden had not yet dissipated.

Xia Nuo was already standing in the open space surrounded by giant bones, stretching his sore shoulders and neck.

Last night's banquet was so enjoyable that he opened his heart and drank with the two giants. He drank dozens of kilograms of liquor, and his temples still ached slightly.

He looked up at the sky. The sun had just peeked out from the horizon, and the air was still filled with the scent of last night's bonfire.

"Hey, Brother Xia Nuo, you woke up pretty early!"

A thunderous sound suddenly came from behind, and the ground began to tremble slightly.

Dongli came over with a smile, carrying his giant sword that was more than ten meters long. Broki followed beside him and was quietly using the axe blade of his battle axe as a mirror to comb his messy beard.

Seeing Xia Nuo looking at him, he hurriedly put away the axe and hummed a little tune as if nothing had happened.

"Are you ready?"

Dong Li grinned, revealing his white teeth. "The special training from Elbaf will show no mercy."

"I can't ask for it."

Xia Nuo twisted his neck, his eyes gleaming with excitement, "Come on, uncles, just come on!"

“Haha, in that case…” Dongli suddenly raised his giant sword and chopped it down without warning, “Then it’s time to start now!!!”

hum!
The whistling sound of the giant sword tearing through the air pierced his eardrums. Without thinking, Shanuo activated "Shave" and dodged to the left.

"Hahahaha, here it is!"

Before he landed on the ground, Broki had already predicted his position, and swung his axe horizontally with a laugh.

Xia Nuo was startled, and the instinctive reaction developed from years of practice made him lean back suddenly, with his upper body almost touching the ground, and only then did he barely avoid the axe blade.

call!
The giant axe brushed past his scalp, and the strong wind it stirred up made Xia Nuo's face tremble wildly and his pupils shrink subconsciously, but because of this, he became even more excited.

Is it so exciting right from the start?
Compared to watching from the sidelines yesterday, now facing this terrifying wind pressure, I can more deeply appreciate how powerful these two legendary giants are.

Not only is it terrifyingly powerful, it also has amazing flexibility that is completely inconsistent with its huge size.

Most importantly.

The two were also extremely skilled at joining forces to attack. Working together was far more complex than just one plus one equaling two, and this brought him unprecedented pressure.

There is a door!

This is exactly the feeling I want!

His eyes were piercing as he stared intently at the giant sword that was about to fall from Dong Li's body.

At this rate, it wouldn't take long. Maybe he would be able to master the Observation Haki before dark today!

"The warm-up test is over, Brother Shanuo!"

Dong Li's voice also rang out at this time, "Be careful! From now on, Brockie and I are really going to go all out!"

The next moment, accompanied by the giant's roar, a bone-chilling sense of crisis suddenly rose up, causing goose bumps to appear all over his back.

"The Spear of Elbaf, the Kingdom of Wei!!!"
