With the strongest bloodline, it’s not too much to have more children, right?

Haiyuan calendar year 1513.

Two months have passed since the Battle of Marineford. The turmoil in the New World has ended, and the world has entered a three-way balance of power.

The Kingdom of Adrian occupied a quarter of the sea, did not participate in the struggle for hegemony among pirates in the New World, developed business steadily, and created a fertile land in the chaotic New World.

The Big Mom Pirates, the Beasts Pirates, and the Red Hair Pirates have encroached heavily on the territories of ordinary pirates, almost dividing up the remaining three-quarters of the territory.

Pirates heading to the New World have only two choices: either join the three major royal groups, or... put an end to their dreams.

"boom!"

"Zhan Guo, what's up? Want to compete in eating senbei again? I promised you, I'm going to win this time!"

The door opened, and Garp, picking his nose, walked carelessly into the marshal's office.

Zhan Guo sat on the chair and didn't say anything after listening to Garp's words. He just handed a report to him.

Realizing that something was wrong with Sengoku's expression, Garp put away the smile on his face.

After reviewing the information, Garp's expression gradually became shocked, his eyes widened, and he said in disbelief: "Zeff has rejuvenated!?"

Hearing this, Zhan Guo's expression could no longer be suppressed, and he said helplessly: "Don't just look at the photos, look at the intelligence!"

Garp scratched his head and began to read the intelligence, his brows gradually furrowed.

"Ancient Giant Dragonfly Tarvis, Animal-Bug-Bug Fruit-Ancient Species-Ancient Giant Dragonfly Form, with powerful Armament Haki, outstanding Observation Haki, and astonishing speed. He killed one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Whitebeard II Weevil, without taking any damage."

Zhan Guo crossed his arms and asked in a deep voice, "Garp, do you have anything to say?"

"Hahahaha, quite capable, right? This kid didn't embarrass Zephyr!" Garp replied with a smile.

"Don't you find it strange? Talvis is dead. He died twenty years ago!"

Capra pulled a chair and sat down, picked up the senbei on the Warring States table, opened his mouth wide, and swallowed the whole bag.

While chewing on a senbei, he said, "Isn't it strange? Were the bodies of Talvis and Lucia found back then? Maybe they weren't dead at all?"

"That's impossible! Even if they weren't dead, they couldn't possibly be in the Kingdom of Adrien!"

Zhan Guo said with a little excitement.

"If the Kingdom of Adrian has a passage leading to Mary Geoise, then it makes sense that there is also a passage leading to Marinford."

Garp's tone was calm, completely different from his usual cheerful image.

"Then...then do you think the attack on Zephyr's family was orchestrated by the Kingdom of Adrian? Could they have deliberately..."

"Warring States!"

Garp's face turned serious.

"Is it possible that Zephyr couldn't think of what you can think of? Since he has joined the Kingdom of Adrian, then this matter has nothing to do with the Kingdom of Adrian. You are not familiar with Zell, but are you not familiar with Zephyr?"

Zhan Guo seemed to have lost all his strength and leaned weakly against the back of the chair.

It is a happy thing that Tarvis is still alive, but that is as Zefa's comrade-in-arms.

As a naval marshal, this is not good news.

If the murderer is not Adrian Kingdom, then who else could it be?

He already had the answer, but he was unwilling to face it.

Garp said in a gentle tone, "Zhan Guo, you are too tired. Don't live up to your reputation as a wise general. Once it comes to the Kingdom of Adrien, you always lose your mind."

Zhan Guo nodded, looking blankly at the window in front of him.

The sun was shining brightly outside, but it couldn't reach him.

"Garp, do you think the Kingdom of Adrien will win? Is the World Government just or is the Kingdom of Adrien just?"

Garp's pupils shrank sharply, and then he shook his head.

"I don't know either. We just need to enforce navy justice."

Upon hearing this, Zhan Guo murmured, "Yes, we just need to uphold our own justice. No matter who wins, the navy can survive. After all, the sea cannot do without us."

"It's okay. You can go first. You will be responsible for the new round of navy recruitment."

"Um... My grandson has been missing me lately, so I'd like to get some leave."

"roll!"

Garp took out a few packs of limited edition rice crackers from the drawer of the table and disappeared in an instant.

Zhan Guo opened his mouth to curse, but after thinking it over, he closed it.

After feeding the information to the goat next to him, Zhan Guo walked to the window and let the sunlight shine on him.

"The world's stability depends on the navy..."

"But they don't need a naval marshal like me."

........................

West Sea, Kingdom of Adrian.

The sky was blue, and from time to time, flying Pokémon flew by, including Pidgeot carrying a backpack, Steelix carrying a cabin, and Rhapsodyne holding a fish in its mouth.

The city below was thriving, with all kinds of magnificent buildings standing in rows, people coming and going, and children running freely, chasing Pokémon that appeared in every corner of the city.

"Little York! Little York! Where are you?"

A little boy wearing a hat looked around nervously, as if looking for something.

At this moment, a voice sounded from behind him.

"Is it him you're looking for?"

The little boy turned around and found a tall man standing behind him, holding a furry puppy in his hand.

The puppy is holding a pink fruit, happily enjoying the delicious food in his hand with an expression of enjoyment on his face.

"Little York! I finally found you!"

The man handed the puppy to the little boy.

"He must be hungry. Pokémon have a big appetite. Don't forget to feed him."

Hearing this, the little boy nodded and bowed to the man while holding little York.

"Thank you, big brother!"

The boy raised his head, but suddenly found that the man was gone, and scratched his head in confusion.

"have they gone?"

Just as the little boy was puzzled, the man had already left the bustling city area and returned to the palace in the city center.

That’s right, the man who does good deeds every day is Zell.

Ever since his fight with Im, Zell had been thinking about ways to develop his Devil Fruit to the third stage.

But it was obvious that he had no idea at all.

There was no point in thinking hard in the palace, so he walked out of the palace and began wandering around the city.

While thinking about ways to improve your strength, observe the development of the kingdom.

Of course, he brought a Ditto with him, otherwise he would have been blocked before he could walk a few meters.

Arriving at the palace gate, two guards crossed their spears, blocking Zel's way.

"stop!"

"This is a restricted area of the royal palace, entry and exit are permitted... Your Majesty Zell!"

The two guards knelt down immediately after seeing Zel take off the Ditto from his face.

Zell said nothing and walked straight into the palace.
