Pirates of the Peak

Chapter 1063 The Mastermind

With the influence of external uncertainty, the tense atmosphere in the valley also shifted, and most people focused their attention on the unidentified people who were about to approach!

Whether someone is a friend or an enemy needs to be determined in advance, and this can only be judged after seeing the specific person.

Ace was not surprised to see the crowd gathering around him, because when he brought Marco and the others ashore just now, he saw many ships approaching from other coasts of the island.

But he didn't expect so many people to come here. He thought that there must be a large number of people on the opposite coast of the island as well!

So many forces came here tacitly. Ace knew that this was definitely related to the great treasure Luffy had obtained. These people were definitely not here to pay homage to the new generation of "Pirate King", nor were they here to join in the fun. It was expected that most of them would be his and Luffy's enemies!

"Huh? Did Kake and the others start a fight?"

Akainu looked back in the direction they came from. He had left half of the navy soldiers on the top of the mountain. Except for Kake and Gion who were very strong, the ones left were just the leftovers, which was just enough to follow other generals to carry out missions in the New World. They were pure cannon fodder!

Sensing the fighting atmosphere over there, Akainu became a little worried about the navy soldiers. He didn't know whether Kake and Gion could protect those newcomers!

Akainu's justice is indeed a bit absolute, but it also depends on the time and occasion. In an occasion like now, he doesn't want anything to happen to the soldiers he brings with him. They are the future of the navy!

Now that he is the Admiral of the Navy, he also has to consider the future of the Navy. His position is different, his height is different, and his way of thinking about problems is also different!

Akainu's worries were not bad, as there was indeed a battle between Kake and Gion, but it was not as bad as he thought!

There were indeed many large and small forces that landed on the island at the same time. They all rushed here without stopping after receiving the news of the great secret treasure.

However, they received the news at different times, as if it was determined by their distance from Narcissus Star Island. The person who brought the news seemed to deliberately want to gather them together, so they arrived at about the same time!

Among these people, some are very self-aware and are really here to watch the fun, and some are friends with the Straw Hat Pirates and are really here to help "Pirate King" Luffy!

There are also those who are not very strong but want to fish in troubled waters, and of course there are also those who are strong but want to use force!

Then these forces, big and small, met in the sea area outside Narcissus Star Island. The weak ones quickly avoided the strong ones, and the strong ones did not want to conflict with other strong ones. After all, they had not seen the great treasure, so there was no point in starting a war now. Those who wanted to fish in troubled waters would not show anything at this time!

Therefore, due to various reasons, these large and small forces kept a considerable distance from each other in relative harmony and at the same time were on guard against each other. As they gave way to each other, the large and small ships seemed to have surrounded the entire Narcissus Star Island.

Therefore, there must be a force passing through the top of the mountain where Gion and Kake are located, and then after this group of pirates reached the top of the mountain, they met the navy stationed here!

The pirate forces want the navy to get out of the way. They don't want to miss the fight for the great treasure, nor do they want to conflict with the navy right now. But can Kake and Gion agree to this request?

Although Gion had received a warning from her sister, Chief of Staff Tsuru, as a naval commander with a sense of justice, how could he possibly give way just because of a few words from a pirate? Even the unreliable Kake wouldn't agree to that!

How is this any different from compromising with pirates out of fear? Where does that leave the sense of justice in their hearts?

Therefore, the conflict between the two sides was inevitable, but fortunately, this pirate force was not very powerful, and the captain of their pirate group was just a relatively well-known pirate, and could not be compared with the Four Emperors who were pirates standing at the top of the sea!

Gion and Kake were already candidates for admiral more than ten years ago. After so many years, their strength has long reached the level of admiral. Although they have no military ranks or titles, their combat capabilities are definitely not bad!

Therefore, if you don't have the combat power of the Four Emperors, don't even think about taking advantage of Gion and Kake. Even if this pirate group still has many powerful cadres, they are no match for the two admirals of the same level!

Akainu dared to let Kake and Gion stay here because he was impressed by their current combat capabilities. They can serve as support forces in the future and as vanguard troops during evacuation. He has two plans!

So even though Akainu was a little worried, it was unnecessary. There weren't that many Four Emperors-level fighters, and it wasn't that easy to encounter Kake and Gion!

Vic was hiding in the dimensional space. Seeing so many pirate groups coming to Narcissus Star Island at the same time, he frowned. This was too weird!

Few people knew that Luffy went to Raftel, but now it seems to have leaked like a sieve, and all the forces with a little strength in the New World know about it!

At least the forces that came here knew about it, and there were many forces that knew about it but did not come. So there are definitely quite a few forces that know that Luffy has obtained the great treasure. This is very intriguing. It would be unreasonable if Victor couldn't see anything!

But what was the purpose of the person who spread the news? Didn't he want to get the great treasure for himself?

Or is it that the person who knew Luffy's information wasn't powerful enough? Couldn't they, or their power, steal the treasure from Luffy on their own? So, they needed to spread the news widely, attracting all sorts of forces, and then take advantage of the situation?

If this is true, the person behind the scenes can exclude both the Navy and the World Government!

If the World Government gets the news first, Im will not spread the news. This will be of no benefit to the World Government. Wouldn't it be safer for Im to take the Knights of God and the Five Elders to intercept and kill them?

If the navy got the news first, they would either choose to report it or choose to conceal it and deal with it alone. The result of reporting would be the same as above, and the Five Elders and Im would eventually know!

If they had concealed the secret in order to deal with the Straw Hat Pirates, Akainu would still have been confident that he could lead the navy to face a group of Four Emperors, and then there wouldn't have been such a widespread publicity as it is now, so it's impossible that they were the ones who spread the news!

The Revolutionary Army and the Crusaders would not do this either. One is the power of Luffy's father, and the other is the power of Luffy's sworn brother Ace. They would not attack their relatives for the so-called great treasure.

What's more, Dragon has already set the goal of the Revolutionary Army and will not change his original intention because of the pirate treasure game!

And Ace is definitely more interested in the Realm of God than the Great Secret Treasure now. If his younger brother gets the Great Secret Treasure, he will only be happy in his heart, and then he will be more focused on breaking through the Realm of God, so they are also excluded!

Then there are Luffy’s little brothers. This time they also received the news and rushed here. They all came here from Luffy’s territory!

Luffy also has a territory. After all, he is one of the Four Emperors, and he has various relationships with the other Four Emperors. Even if he is no longer able to manage territory and power, he still has a large territory, which is enough for his subordinates to move around!
