One Piece: Starting as a Marine Lieutenant, I Slack Off and Get Stronger

In addition, the tea party can also gather the Big Mom Pirates' executives on Whole Cake Island, making it easier for the Navy to carry out a raid. How convenient!

"Sigh~ If Major General Peng En's abilities weren't limited to this level, I would have liked to bring more people!"

“Peng En? He is indeed a promising talent.”

Kuzan nodded in agreement. If Penn hadn't eaten the Float-Float Fruit, he would have been a vice admiral at most in his life. But with the Float-Float Fruit, his strategic position was elevated to the same level as Karl's.

Having both Penn and Carl, these two brilliant strategists, is truly a stroke of incredible luck for the Navy.

"By the way, Kuzan, I've been on Fishman Island for the past few days. Did the Straw Hat crew successfully reach the New World?"

Kuzan paused for a moment, then took out a document from yesterday from the drawer and handed it to Karl.

"Take a look for yourself! This is a fax from Smoker, which details his encounter with the Straw Hat crew on Punk Hazard."

Carl took it and immediately started flipping through it.

"Caesar? Wasn't that guy already wanted by the authorities?"

Speaking of which, he had met Caesar a few years ago when he was still a major; at that time, he was a scientist at the research institute.

"Who knows! I thought he would wander around, but he went straight back to the Forbidden Zone and did some disgusting experiments. It's a pity that Smoker couldn't catch them."

"Where is he now?"

"If nothing unexpected happens, he should be in the hands of the Straw Hat Pirates."

Carl shook his head: "Never mind, when is the old lady's tea party?"

"Seven days later, the theme is wedding cake. This time, the aunt has her eye on the Germa Group, but I don't know who is getting married to whom. It wasn't mentioned on the invitation."

Carl nodded: "Okay, I got it. I'll rest for a few days, call me when the game starts!"

Hearing this, Kuzan's lips twitched: "Still resting? How many days have you been resting?"

Chapter 305 The Dressrosa Incident

Karl replied matter-of-factly, "What can we do if we don't rest?"

"Don't forget, the World Government Conference is about to convene, and I still have to escort Princess Shirahoshi and King Neptune from Fish-Man Island to attend the conference!"

Kuzan lowered his head and pondered, "That is indeed a problem. Alright then! You should rest for a few days!"

"Tch! Let's go!"

......

Meanwhile, the Straw Hat crew officially landed on Dressrosa Island, expanding their team by two members.

A samurai named Kin'emon, and a brat named Momonosuke.

After the Punk Hazard incident, they became friends, and Luffy agreed to help Momonosuke defeat Kaido. However, before that, Luffy planned to destroy the Smil factory in Dressrosa, so they split up.

Luffy, Zoro, Kin'emon, Usopp, Franky, and Robin stayed in Dressrosa, while Nami, Chopper, Sanji, Momonosuke, and Brook went to Zou to find Raizo.

Three hours later, in the Marshal's office.

"What? The Straw Hat Pirates are fighting with Doflamingo?"

"What? Doflamingo actually dared to do this? This is outrageous!"

"I'll send someone over immediately!"

Kuzan hung up the phone, crossed his arms, leaned back in his chair, and looked thoughtful.

He had long guessed that Doflamingo wouldn't obediently remain a Shichibukai, but he never expected Doflamingo to be so audacious. It seemed that he could send Doflamingo to Impel Down without even having to abolish the Shichibukai system.

As for who will solve the problem, Kuzan already has a plan in mind.

Ten minutes later, Honorary General Fujitora, Advisor Tsuru, and Sengoku boarded the ship and set sail.

Sengoku wasn't supposed to go, but when he heard that they were going to take down Doflamingo, he insisted on going. Staff Officer Tsuru understood, because Sengoku's adopted son Corazon had died at Doflamingo's hands. Now, he finally had a chance to avenge his adopted son, so how could he remain indifferent?

Soon, the navy arrived in Dressrosa, but the situation there was very complicated.

Doflamingo, the Straw Hat Pirates, the Tontatta Tribe, various pirates participating in the Colosseum Battle, and the Revolutionary Army—the list goes on and on.

Most of these people are here to target Doflamingo, tsk, that's kind of pathetic...

One day later, Marineford.

"I heard Doflamingo was defeated?"

Kuzan nodded: "Yeah! Straw Hat Luffy defeated him, and now Advisor Tsuru and the others are escorting Doflamingo. I reckon it won't be long before he's in Infinite Hell."

"So now... isn't Mihawk the only one left of the Seven Warlords of the Sea? Tsk tsk tsk, he's practically dead in all but name!"

"You forgot one too, Buggy the Clown, he's also a Shichibukai."

Karl slapped his forehead, realizing he had forgotten about this guy. Perhaps it was because the guy had been searching for treasure everywhere since becoming a Shichibukai, making him relatively inconspicuous.

"In any case, the Seven Warlords system is about to be abolished, which is a great thing for the Navy."

"Yes~ back when I was still a general..."

brubrubru~

"Wait a minute, I'll take a call."

"Oh? Are you alright?"

"That's good, it's good that you're alright. Come back soon!"

Kuzan hung up the phone with a strange expression. Carl asked, "What's wrong?"

"Just now, Jack the Drought of the Beasts Pirates attacked the warship transporting Doflamingo. Issho, Staff Officer Tsuru, and Mr. Sengoku were all present. Are the people of the Beasts Pirates all muscle?"

Carl smiled without saying a word. Jack, a mere shipping magnate, wanted to stop the newspaper king from going online? Difficult, extremely difficult!

The Dressrosa incident was just an interlude for the Navy. The main theme now is to prepare for war in full swing and strive for a complete victory in the war against the Whole Cake Island!

Five days later, in the Land of the Rising Sun, on Whole Cake Island.

The old lady's tea party is about to begin today, which also means that Sanji and Pudding are about to complete a political marriage.

However, things haven't been peaceful in Whole Cake Island these past few days. The Straw Hat crew has been here for a while now, causing all sorts of trouble, but they haven't been able to stir up any big waves.

Tick-tock tick-tock~

The plants, possessing "souls," sang joyfully: "It's about to begin!"

"It's about to begin!" "It's time for Mom's tea party!"

"Time's up~"

"Time's up~"

"The pig cart is coming in a panic... Will we make it?"

"Will we make it?" "We're going to be late!" "Hurry up!"

"The big guest... is coming!!!"

It was the same old acquaintances, the king of loan sharks, and Stussy and his ilk.

Guests entered in an orderly fashion, began enjoying desserts, and awaited the arrival of the main guests.

bang bang bang~

Heavy footsteps echoed from the side of the castle.

"It's time for the tea party..."

"Welcome everyone who has traveled from afar, Mommy!~"

The woman laughed happily and jumped onto her seat, dancing around like a child.

"Looking around, all I see are snacks. Mom is so lucky!"

"Everyone, eat and drink to your heart's content! Enjoy yourself to the fullest!!!"

Enjoy everything that happens here today!

Soon, the guards came over carrying a framed photograph.

"Mother, Sister Carmel has arrived."

The woman smiled happily: "That's right, this is our nun..."

When Carl broke the record, she had someone make a larger, clearer photograph, which she loved very much.

"Of course, Mother. It's wonderful that the nun is all smiles today, just like the sun."

"Hahaha, yes, nuns are the light of this world."

Seeing that the atmosphere was good, the king of loan sharks said with a smile, "Lingling, I brought you a gift. I'm sure you'll like it."

The woman looked delighted; she had finally arrived at her favorite part.

"Isn't this a treasure chest? I love treasure chests the most! What's inside?"

Dressed in a ladylike outfit, only because the boss, Stusi, smiled elegantly, "I also brought you a gift, Lingling."

"Please accept my gift as well!"

"My gift is a treasure brought back from the south!" "I went to the northernmost place!"
