One Piece: The system is only activated after leaving the Navy.

Luo Tian and his companions remained in Hades' cave, completely unaware of what was happening in the outside world.

Luo Tian sat quietly by the side of Hades' ship, pondering the upcoming journey.

His gaze involuntarily fell on Bonnie, who was wandering around.

Since she had already promised Bonnie to help her, she had to keep her promise.

Moreover, doing so does not conflict with his mission.

Luo Tian decided to go find Long first to find out about the progress of the revolutionaries.

After all, the Revolutionary Army led by Dragon is considered the only force capable of directly overthrowing the Celestial Dragons' rule.

"Then let's go find Long first and see how things are going on his end."

So, Luo Tian gathered his men and prepared to leave the cave.

Before leaving, he looked around and found that there was nothing particularly worth seeing in this Hades.

Luo Tian thought to himself that although this place held a huge secret, it was no longer of any value to their current mission.

Luo Tian and his group walked out of the cave and returned to their boat moored on the shore.

Just as Luo Tian was about to give the order to set sail, he suddenly felt a Den Den Mushi (snail phone) ringing on his body.

He quickly pulled out a Den Den Mushi from his pocket, and when he looked at the screen, he saw that it was Aokiji calling.

Luo Tian was somewhat surprised, because he had just been thinking about finding Qingzhi, but he didn't expect the other party to contact him so quickly.

Luo Tian answered Aokiji's Den Den Mushi and said in a cheerful mood.

"Haha, I just thought of you and you contacted me. We're really on the same wavelength! So, what's up? Did the Celestial Dragons annoy you again? If so, just let me know, and I'll go take care of them right away! With our friendship, I'll give you a friendly price. One Celestial Dragon will only cost 1000 million Berries, while others would cost 1 million."

After listening to Luo Tian's words, Qingzhi remained silent for a moment before asking a question.

"Luo Tian, ​​where are you now? Can I join you?"

Luo Tian was taken aback when he heard Qingzhi suddenly propose to join him, and he asked in confusion.

"Hey kid, why are you suddenly saying you want to join me? Have you already left the Navy?"

Aokiji answered from the Den Den Mushi.

"Haha, you're only finding out now? Newspapers are flying all over the world. Aren't you being called the Fifth Emperor of the New World, and the number one person with the best chance of becoming the Pirate King?"

Luo Tian was once again stunned by Qingzhi's words, and he muttered to himself.

"When did I become the Fifth Emperor? I have no idea about this! I'm still in Wano Country, and I know nothing about what's happening outside!"

Aokiji teased with a slightly mocking smile.

"Luo Tian, ​​you're way out of the loop!"

Then, Aokiji changed the subject and asked.

"So, do you still stand by what you said before? Is there still room for me on the ship?"

After speaking, the person on the other end of the Den Den Mushi fell silent, seemingly waiting for a positive answer.

Luo Tian answered without hesitation.

"Of course it counts. I saved a spot for you a long time ago, brother. I've been waiting for you."

His voice was full of enthusiasm and sincerity, as if Aokiji's arrival was something he had been looking forward to for a long time.

Then, Luo Tian smiled and said to Qingzhi.

"Look, the navy is nowhere near as free and unrestrained as the pirates."

His words revealed his longing for the pirate life and some dissatisfaction with the naval life.

Finally, Luo Tian said to Qingzhi.

"Let's meet in Dressrosa. I have some business to take care of there, so we can meet there at the same time."

Aokiji replied, "Alright, then see you in Dressrosa."

With their agreement reached, they hung up the Den Den Mushi, ending the brief call.

Luo Tian slowly put down the Den Den Mushi, but the plot of One Piece from his previous life kept flashing through his mind.

He recalled the duel between Aokiji and Akainu, in which Aokiji was ultimately defeated and chose to leave the Navy.

However, what puzzled Luo Tian was that after leaving the Navy, Aokiji actually chose to join the Blackbeard Pirates.

Aokiji's decision is truly perplexing, because given his personality and stance, it seems inappropriate for him to ally with a villainous force like Blackbeard.

Luo Tian couldn't help but wonder if Aokiji's joining the Blackbeard Pirates was truly his own choice, or if there were other reasons behind it.

After careful consideration, Luo Tian felt there was a possibility.

It is possible that Aokiji's joining was at the behest of Sengoku.

Aokiji never truly left the Navy.

As a high-ranking officer in the navy, Sengoku may have had deeper plans and considerations.

The so-called withdrawal was just a message deliberately released by the Navy to allow Aokiji to infiltrate the Blackbeard Pirates more easily and become an undercover agent.

He may hope to use Aokiji's undercover identity to gain inside information about the Blackbeard Pirates' activities in order to better deal with this increasingly powerful enemy.

In this way, Aokiji can gather intelligence in the pirate world without arousing suspicion from Blackbeard and others.

In either case, Luo Tian developed a great deal of curiosity and suspicion about Aokiji's true intentions.

He decided to continue observing Aokiji's actions to see if he could find any clues and unravel the mystery.

However, Luo Tian wasn't particularly concerned about whether Aokiji had truly come to infiltrate the Navy or the World Government and had chosen to join him.

Because he had a deep understanding of Aokiji, it was based on this understanding that he extended an invitation to Aokiji when he left the Navy.

The Dragon Soar, which was ready to set sail, temporarily halted its progress after receiving a phone call from Luo Tian.

Seeing that Luo Tian had finished his call, Dan quickly walked over to his side and asked him.

"Captain, where are we going next?"

Luo Tian smiled slightly and replied.

"Let's go to Dressrosa first and take Violet home. After all, she's a princess, and she's different from us pirates. Then, we can pick up our new crew members while we're at it."

Upon hearing this, Dan looked puzzled and pressed for an answer.

"A new crew member? Who is it?"

Luo Tian smiled mysteriously, keeping everyone in suspense.

"It's someone we all know very well. You'll find out when we get to our destination."
