Pirate's Swordsman

Naval Headquarters, Marin Vando.

Squeak.

The door to the marshal's office on the top floor of the fortress was suddenly pushed open without even knocking, and a gray-haired head stuck in. He looked left and right, and after seeing no one, he crept in quietly. Come in.

"Yo, there's so much left."

The old man saw a large basket full of senbei on the coffee table at a glance. He immediately grinned, took one casually, threw it into his mouth and ate it, then picked up the whole basket of senbei with his other arm. Bei, turned around and was about to run away.

However, at this time.

"Cap"

An angry shout suddenly came from the direction of the balcony, and the smile on Garp's face froze. He huffed, and after a long time he slowly turned his head while holding a large basket of senbei.

Not surprisingly, the man standing in front of him at this moment was none other than the Admiral of the Navy, Buddha Sengoku himself.

"Ahaha, so Sengoku you are here."

Garp laughed twice, put the senbei back on the table, then pretended to be nonchalant, turned and walked towards the door, laughing and saying: "I just came over to take a look when I was bored. I'm looking at the files on your desk." It’s quite a lot, so you can continue your work, I’ll leave first.”

"Stop for me"

The veins on Sengoku's forehead jumped, and he suddenly called out to Garp. When the latter turned around, he shook his head helplessly and said: "You can eat the senbei or something if you want. I don't mean to pursue it, it's just that Garp, I asked someone to call you over to discuss things before, why did it take several hours before you came?"

"Ah, did you ask someone to call me?"

As soon as Garp sat down on the sofa, he raised his head with a confused look on his face: "Why don't I remember this?"

"Stop pretending to be stupid and stunned."

Warring States face darkened, threw a stack of documents in his hand into his arms, and said angrily: "Garp, it's useless to evade again and again. Look at how many great things your grandson has done. Now we can only take it seriously." share”

"Is it that exaggerated?"

Garp muttered, took the file and took a look at it. He couldn't help but show a look of surprise: "Well, this kid Aais actually killed Moonlight Moria."

"yes"

Warring States sighed and said in a deep voice: "The reason for the conflict between the two is still unknown, but the commotion that broke out after the fight was quite big, and the winner was decided in about two or three hours. Fire Fist Ai Si finally narrowly defeated Moria, who was seriously injured and escaped in a hurry using the fruit's power."

"Hahahaha, I didn't expect that this old boy Moria had been hiding in such a shabby place for so many years, and finally fell into the hands of a newcomer."

Unexpectedly, after listening to Sengoku's words, Garp not only did not show a serious expression, but instead picked up a senbei and put it in his mouth, laughing loudly: "You are indeed my grandson."

"Mr. Karp didn't come to you to ask you to say such things."

Warring States suddenly erupted completely. He couldn't help but take a step forward, snatched the senbei from Garp's hand, and shouted angrily:

"This is an emergency that just happened last night. Our headquarters got the news first. The major newspapers have not published it yet, but it is estimated that tomorrow morning at the latest, the news will spread all over the world and shock the attention of countless people."

"Before this, as this guy's adopter, shouldn't you take responsibility and think carefully about how to deal with this matter?"

"What's there to think about?" Garp curled his lips and said nonchalantly: "That brat is a pirate, and we are the navy. If this brat hasn't entered the new world yet, send someone over to catch him. That's the end of it."

“It’s not that simple”

Warring States glared at him, "Sakaski is too busy to leave the headquarters, Kuzan is performing a secret mission in the South China Sea, Porusalino has gone home after his shift, and none of the three generals can take action. , who do you want me to send over?"

"Then Lieutenant General." Garp gnawed on the senbei again, and after a crunch, he showed a satisfied expression, "Dauberman and Flying Squirrel should both be free, why don't they send them out?" Well."

"Not safe."

Warring States shook his head slightly, "This kid just defeated Lieutenant General Doluo some time ago when he was unable to use the fruit's ability. Even if Flying Squirrel and the others are stronger, they may not be this guy's opponent."

"As for sending two or three more lieutenant generals or something?"

He stroked his goatee and said calmly: "Firstly, the manpower of this department is not that abundant. Secondly, don't forget that when the Storm Swordsman Xiano did not become the Shichibukai, Ghost Spider and the others learned from their mistakes."

"What should we do?"

Garp spread his hands and was about to continue eating senbei. When he saw Sengoku staring at him, he suddenly realized: "Well, you don't want me to go there in person, do you?"

"Shouldn't it be right?" Sengoku Youyou said, "You are the hero of our navy."

"But that kid is also my grandson."

Garp looked directly at Sengoku and spoke. Although his tone was still carefree, it revealed a serious tone, "It doesn't matter if I really want to go, but if I follow Porusalino's example, I won't be able to If we intercept it in time, don't go back and blame me again."

""

Warring States was speechless for a moment. He rubbed his temples with a headache, and sighed after a while: "I knew you would be like this, forget it, this is another plan, you can see it for yourself."

With that said, he threw another pile of documents on his desk.

Garp hurriedly threw away the senbei in his hand, took the file, and after scanning it roughly, he was stunned for a moment, and looked up with a look of astonishment:

"Convene the King's Shichibukai Conference"

"good."

Warring States walked to the window with his hands behind his back, looked at the port outside, and said in a low voice:

"Since Moria is so embarrassed that he can't even compete with a newcomer, then he is no longer worthy of staying in this position. And the vacant Shichibukai position naturally needs to be discussed by holding a Shichibukai meeting as usual. .”

"When the time comes, I will first nominate Fire Fist Ace as Moria's successor and become the new King Shichibukai."

Having said this, he turned his head and took a deep look at Garp who fell into silence: "And if this plan can be passed, it will kill two birds with one stone and solve the big trouble we have at hand."

"Do you understand what I mean, Cap?"

a few days later.

Shengting Island, Kingdom of Alabasta.

In a dark manor in the royal capital of Arabana, Crocodile listened quietly to the voice coming from the conversational microphone, frowned and hung up the phone.

He lit a cigar, half of his face hidden in the swirling smoke, and his expression was unpredictable.

"What's wrong, President?"

In the shadow not far away, a slim figure walked over, holding the brim of his hat and chuckled: "Is that their phone number? Is the matter of raising dancing fans going well?"

She has black hair and blue eyes, delicate appearance, and a mysterious intellectual temperament in her every move. She is none other than Nico Robin, who has become Sand Crocodile's deputy.

"The matters concerning the dancing fans have been settled a long time ago, and the call just now was not from them."

Crocodile glanced at her, snorted, and then slowly said:

"It's a call from the Navy Headquarters. Moonlight Moria has been removed from the list. They are going to hold a Shichibukai meeting and want me to go to Marineland."
