Pirate: I'm about to do something big!

"Alyosha, are you about to lecture me again?"

"How could that be, Mr. Sakazuki? I just think it's unnecessary to be so absolute. It is our navy's duty to wipe out pirates on the high seas, but educating children is also part of our navy's duty."

"Once the pirates are completely and absolutely wiped out, there will naturally be time to slowly educate the children! This is my justice—the justice of completely eradicating evil!"

Akainu, standing three meters tall and half a head taller than Alyosha, loomed over him, his fists clenched, giving off a "if you keep talking to me, we'll settle this with our fists" vibe that made Alyosha frown.

"You shouldn't be called Akainu, you should be called Akai Neko (Red Cat). You always yawn when we talk."

Alyosha mentally scoffed, then stopped arguing with Akainu about the topic. He walked past Akainu to Sengoku and Garp, who were still bruised and battered from their fight, and gave them a military salute.

"Marshal Sengoku, Mr. Garp, why have you stopped recruiting from all over the world? We haven't even been to the West Blue and the South Blue yet."

"Ahem, Alyosha, there's no need for that right now."

Sengoku coughed lightly, without explicitly stating the reason, but Alyosha guessed that the World Government had probably realized what was going on and directly ordered the suspension of his recruitment drive.

Clearly, the world government does not want the world navy to become too powerful.

They also knew that there were many guys in the Navy who disapproved of the World Government, and Garp was just their representative.

They can still control the world's navies through righteous means, but if the world's navies really become too powerful, the master of this holy land, Mary Geoise, might have to change.

"Well, there's nothing I can do about that. But you still had a very fruitful trip this time, Marshal Sengoku. I brought you a little something to give you."

Alyosha took out a Devil Fruit from his pocket.

"The Paramecia-type Devil Fruit, the Flutter-Flutter Fruit, the Devil Fruit of Doflamingo's core executive, codenamed 'Diamanty'."

"Well done, Alyosha."

Upon seeing Alyosha introduce the Devil Fruit in his hand, Sengoku couldn't stop smiling.

If we were to ask who among the crowd hated Doflamingo, the newly appointed Shichibukai, the one who hated him the most, it would only be Sengoku. His adopted son, Donquixote Rosinante, was killed by Doflamingo himself.

He was also aware of the current composition of Doflamingo's Donquixote Family. Alyosha's killing of Diamante, a core member, was a significant blow to Doflamingo's expansion of power.

"This is just an appetizer for Doflamingo, Fleet Admiral Sengoku. Look, this is the main course I'm going to teach Doflamingo a lesson."

Sengoku looked behind Alyosha and saw the family members that Alyosha had taken from Doflamingo: Baby-5, whom Alyosha named Baby; Buffalo, the chubby boy wearing Seastone; the sisters Monet and Sugar; and then Law and his three underlings.

Next up are Luffy, Sabo, and Ace, the three brothers.

Alyosha turned around and brought Law, who was setting foot in the Marine Headquarters for the first time, to Sengoku.

"Mr. Sengoku, this is the boy Rosinante was willing to risk his life to protect, Trafalgar Law. This is the Supreme Admiral who commands the world's navies, Sengoku, and he is the one who nurtured Rosinante into such an outstanding naval officer."

Sengoku looked at Luo, who had been brought before him by Alyosha. Luo was about 15 years old, much older than when Sengoku had adopted Rosinante, but his confusion about the future remained the same.

Sengoku was unaware that his adopted son, Rosinante, was secretly saving Rosinante's life while simultaneously passing him information. But the dead were gone, and Sengoku didn't want to know why Rosinante did it. Or rather, Sengoku had already given himself an answer.

"Just like when I was training you, Rosinante, you bastard..."

"Hello, do you know Mr. Rosinandi?"

Law looked timidly at Fleet Admiral Sengoku, his eyes filled with curiosity. As far as Law was concerned, he only knew that Rosinante was Doflamingo's younger brother and a Marine spy, but he didn't know who had adopted Rosinante and trained him to become a Marine, nor did he understand why Rosinante wanted to become a spy for Doflamingo.

"Yes, I call him 'Little Rice Fruit,' and he calls me 'Big Rice Cracker,' kid."

"Then why send Mr. Rosinante on such a dangerous mission! Why send Mr. Rosinante to infiltrate Doflamingo's inner circle?"

Luo's tears welled up, his earlier timidity turning into a deep sense of grievance as he questioned the Warring States Marshal before him.

Luo pounded his fist on the front of Marshal Sengoku, letting him vent his grievances. He knew very well that Luo was not blaming him; he just needed an outlet.

"Marshal Sengoku, I'm sorry, it was me, it was me who killed Mr. Rosinandi."

Sengoku knelt down, embraced the weeping Luo in his arms, gently patted his back, and softly comforted him, just as he had comforted young Rosinante years before.

"Child, you did nothing wrong. Rosinante did a great job. He completed the task I gave him perfectly, freeing you from the Donquixote Pirates. I will never let what happened to Rosinante happen to you again, I promise."

"Once the secret of Law eating the Op-Op Fruit is revealed, then it won't be up to you anymore, Fleet Admiral Sengoku."

Alyosha stood aside, watching the heartwarming scene of Sengoku treating Luo as his adopted son, Rosinante, and continuing his life, and thought to himself.

He didn't bring Law, the future next-generation pirate supernova, to Marine Headquarters on a whim. Making Law eat the Op-Op Fruit was the only time Rosinante disobeyed Sengoku's orders, and it was also a secret between Rosinante and Law.

Alyosha also told Rosinante on the warship not to tell anyone else about the secret between him and Rosinante, including himself.

He wanted to make Fleet Admiral Sengoku experience what it was like for Garp to witness Ace's public execution, and see if he could remain as calm as he had when he persuaded Garp.

Some things can only be truly understood by experiencing them firsthand.

Alyosha wanted to add fuel to the fire of the World Government's incompetence and corruption within Sengoku's heart. Although it was just a small flame at the moment, it would eventually become a raging fire that would destroy the World Government in the long run.

He was eager to see what choice the Warring States Marshal would make at that time.

"Hey? Traman, why are you crying? How lame! Oh, you old geezer."

boom!

"You bastard, call me grandpa!"

In this heartwarming moment, Luffy, who had just disembarked, made a sarcastic remark without considering the occasion, which immediately earned him a loving punch from Garp, his old partner from Sengoku.

The fist punched each of the three brothers on the forehead, leaving a large bump that forced them to sit down and cover their heads.

"Damn it, why do I have to get beaten up too! You old geezer!"

"I should be saying that, Ace! Why are you hitting me?!"

"Why does it still hurt so much even though I've become a rubber man?!"

"Because this is a fist full of love, you three little devils better remember that! Hahaha."

Garp stood there with his hands on his hips, laughing heartily, while the three brothers covered their heads and complained.

Others, unaware of what was going on, gathered around.

"Mr. Garp, this little guy must be your grandson. He's got a lot of Mr. Garp's energy."

"Let me go, you blindfolded man! Take this rubber rubber... Ouch!"

"He's a Devil Fruit user; it seems he could be trained into an excellent Marine."

Aokiji Kuzan picked up Luffy and, looking at the resemblance between Garp and Luffy as grandfather and grandson, confirmed their grandfather-grandson relationship.

Luffy, seeing the eyepatch that Aokiji always wore on his forehead, immediately nicknamed Aokiji "Eyepatch Man." He clenched his fist and fired a Gum-Gum Pistol, which he hadn't quite mastered yet. It failed to pierce Aokiji's mask but bounced back and hit Luffy's own face, making him let out a strange cry.

"That guy named Ace is my adopted grandson in Windmill Village. This guy named Sabo, Alyosha told me he's their sworn brother, so he's also my grandson, hahaha."

"I don't remember having a grandfather like you."

"Wow, Mr. Garp is really decisive."

Alyosha had already informed Garp about the three brothers' situation via Den Den Mushi, and Garp didn't care at all about having an extra grandson.

He immediately announced to the others that he was the grandfather of the three brothers.

With the positions of the three generals already secured, the three brothers, Chi, Qing, and Huang, each approached the three brothers as if choosing something.

Aokiji picked up Luffy, while Kizaru sized up Sabo. Akainu walked up to Ace and stared at him, but Ace didn't back down either.

Although Ace, who grew up in the form of a demon pill, understood Garp's predicament, it did not mean that he accepted Garp's arrangement for him to become a marine, and he was completely unafraid of Akainu's intimidating gaze.

But for Akainu, who only responds to force and not gentleness, Ace's stare was quite satisfying.

"Nice eye. Hey, Alyosha, I'll take this guy."

"Hey, I never said I wanted to be your student!"

"In that case, I'll take a sinecure with you, Alyosha. Will I be paid?"

"You three, stop talking to me like that. After all, I'm the chief instructor of the Naval Academy. If we're going to teach, then treat everyone equally."

Akainu didn't know what the "true fragrance theorem" meant; he just really liked Ace's unruly eyes, which were exactly the same as his own when he was a child. He very domineeringly wanted to become Ace's teacher.

The three of them each assigned Luffy's three brothers, which left Alyosha and Zephyr, the common teacher of Akagi, Aokiji, and Gion, feeling helpless.

"Teacher Zephyr is right. As the three who will soon become the highest combat force in the Navy, please set an example for the Marines."

Alyosha managed to smooth things over, but were the three men, Chi, Qing, and Huang, really going to come and cooperate with him as the teachers of these three brothers?

I wonder what their expressions will be when they see their students betraying the Navy one by one.

Alyosha couldn't wait to see that scene. With the World Navy corrupted by the World Government to this mess, he'd be eating his words if these three brothers didn't defect!

"Damn it! You evil navy, don't think I'll give in! My young master will come and take me back!"

Just as everyone was discussing how to arrange the teaching of these kids, among the kids Alyosha brought back, the fat Buffalo, a member of the Don Quixote family and the most loyal to Doflamingo, started talking to himself without any regard for the occasion.

This remark caught Akainu's attention.

This extreme individual within the navy, who was willing to kill his colleagues and innocent civilians along with the pirates in order to eliminate them, immediately turned his attention to Buffalo.

That murderous intent toward the evil of pirates almost solidified into a tangible form, enveloping the large, fat man, Buffalo.

In that instant, the fat man Buffalo was like a duck whose throat had been pinched, losing all his previous arrogance.

Akainu slowly walked towards Buffalo, his fists overflowing with lava.

"Young Master? Who is your young master?"

"The Seven Warlords of the Sea, Donquixote Doflamingo."

"A pirate's child? Even after arriving at Marine Headquarters, he remains loyal to his master? With such sins, it seems there's no point in him coming to Marine Headquarters to learn!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Akainu's magma fist smashed into the face of Buffalo, who was handcuffed with seastone handcuffs and had forgotten to dodge under Akainu's pressure.

Akainu wouldn't be merciful just because the other person was a child, especially since the other person was saying in front of him that he was loyal to the pirate Doflamingo.

The magma fist struck, but was caught by another hand covered in Armament Haki.

It's Alyosha!

"Sakazuki, what do you intend to do to my student?"

"Alyosha Ran, are you going to drop the honorific for some brat who's so loyal to pirates?"
