One Piece: General Xuanming, Defeat the New World

In the New World waters, on the Warring States Admiral's battleship, Admiral Warring States looked at the intelligence gathered from all parties in front of him, gently stroked his chin, and tried hard to analyze the changes in the situation.

"The Roger Pirates have not yet achieved their goal. There is still Carsente intercepting them in Wano Country. From Wano Country to Zou Island, it is Carsente's hunting range."

"By then, we may be able to capture Roger alive. In the battle of Cake Island, the Navy's biggest concern will be Charlotte Linlin."

"But is there any way to make the Roger Pirates and the Charlotte Pirates collide head-on? This is the question."

Zhan Guo hummed softly, thinking about how to maximize the interests of the navy.

For the Warring States, the Battle of Cake Island was essentially a civil war among pirates. The navy could stay out of it or intervene. The worst-case scenario was that they would return empty-handed.

What the Warring States period really wanted was to weaken the strength of both sides to the greatest extent possible.

"It would be best if we could kill a few generals or ministers of various nations, but it's a pity that these people cannot die at the hands of the navy."

"But Roger has no chance of fighting Charlotte Lingling head-on. What should we do then?"

In any case, Charlotte Linlin cannot die in the battle, so the hatred of the Charlotte family cannot be completely attracted by the navy. It is best to let these people die at the hands of Roger's pirate group.

But the problem is that without Charlotte Linlin in command, the International Fleet will retreat as soon as it encounters the Oro Jackson. After all, Katakuri and others are not fools and will not let their brothers and sisters die in vain.

Thinking of this, Zhan Guo gently picked up the teacup on the corner of the table and tasted the high-grade tribute tea in small sips. As the water in the cup gradually reached the bottom, a plan gradually took shape in Zhan Guo's mind.

"Borsalino, when the battle starts, you will capture the members of the Charlotte family alive. Be sure not to kill them. Charlotte Brulee and Charlotte Smoothie will be your primary targets. There is no need to deal with Katakuri."

"There is no need to deliberately target the members of Roger's pirate group, but these people can be killed."

As Sengoku said this, he threw the two people's information in front of Borsalino.

"Zhan Guo-san, it's not easy to capture someone alive. After all, it's so dangerous."

Borsalino was abruptly awakened from his trance-like state and complained subconsciously, mumbling something in his mouth.

"For the pirates captured alive, the headquarters will directly pay you according to the bounty. The total bounty for these two people is 530 million berries. If you catch any other pirates, it will be yours. This is enough for you to have fun for two months."

Zhan Guo was already very familiar with this monkey. As soon as Borsalino opened his mouth, Zhan Guo knew what he could use to shut this guy up.

As expected, upon hearing about the bounty, Borsalino's expression instantly turned from gloomy to bright, and he picked up the information on the table with a smile.

"Sengoku-san, please don't default on your debt..."

After making arrangements with Borsalino, Sengoku looked back at his intelligence officer.

"Roger's goal is probably the text of Wan Guo's historical landmarks. Pass this message on and make sure Xia Luoling knows it."

Proceeding in secret was not in line with the plan of the Warring States general.

……

Three days later, in Totland, the world, Charlotte Brulee hurried to Cake Island.

"Miss Bree, it's Lingling's afternoon tea time now. If there's nothing important, I think you shouldn't disturb Lingling at this time."

"Mr. Long Bread, I have important information. I think I know what my mother is worried about..."

Brulee waved the letter in her hand breathlessly, leaning her white right arm against the wall, breathing heavily.

You know, as soon as she learned the news, Brulee used the mirror of the World to teleport without stopping, and in less than ten minutes she crossed nearly a thousand miles and arrived in Totland.

"In that case, let me go..."

"No need to report, Bree, tell mom what you found out."

Just as Long Bread was about to go in and say something, Charlotte Lingling's slightly cold voice floated out from the door. Then, a smiling face appeared on the steel door and opened automatically while humming a ballad.

"Thank...thank you, mom."

After Bree calmed her breathing a little, she walked into the room cautiously.

In front of him, on the huge table, more than half of the seven-layer cream puff cake had been eaten, and the cream-stained knife and fork were casually stuck on the corner of the table.

"Mom, please look."

After Brulee handed the intelligence letter to Lingling, she immediately began to describe the source of the intelligence.

"Mom, since yesterday, the merchants coming and going have been talking about a piece of news."

"They say that the legendary red road sign historical text records the truth about the world and contains the wealth of the entire world."

"If you collect all four red historical texts, you will be able to decipher the path to the end of the New World. You will be able to reach the final point of the legendary New World. Everything in the legend is buried there."

"And in your treasure house, mother, you have one of the four stone tablets, and it is said that Roger also got a historical text on Fishman Island."

"So I suspect that Roger's next destination is likely to be the World of Nations, and the admiral is probably here for this purpose."

With her mother's permission, Bree told her mother all the information and guesses she had obtained in one breath.

After Bree stopped, Charlotte Lingling did not reply, but just looked at the two thin pages in her hand over and over again. For a moment, the whole room fell into an inexplicable silence.

About two or three minutes later, Charlotte Lingling finally spoke.

"Brulee, you did a great job. Tell Katakuri to come over. You can go and rest now."

"Okay mom, I'll go right away."

Irene nodded, then dived into the mirror beside her. The smooth mirror surface rippled like water, and then returned to its original state.

"Tell me, is this news true?"

Charlotte Lingling half-closed her eyes, lying on the soft sofa, seeming to be talking to herself, or asking someone.

"No, no, no, this is true. In other words, the new world destination in the intelligence is true, and Roger really wants to get this stone tablet."

In just a moment, Charlotte Linling came to the conclusion.

In her opinion, this was an extremely obvious conspiracy by Zhan Guo. If the news was spread on a large scale, Roger would definitely get to know about it. And Zhan Guo was clearly trying to benefit from it.

In other words, himself, Roger and Zhan Guo all knew this information. Then Zhan Guo dared to be so sure, it must be because at least one of the three parties had the reason and will to achieve the goal at all costs.

"So Roger, what made you risk your life to come here just for a stone tablet?"

"What kind of island would allow you to risk your life..."
