From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

But before he could say anything else, Diarmait said, "Don't worry. The Marshal just wants to see what these two guys are really up to. As soon as we entered the New World, Charlotte Linlin started telling everyone that she wanted to form an alliance with Kaido. This was actually a statement that their alliance was aimed at Whitebeard."

"Then we just don't care?" Sakaski asked after a moment of hesitation.

"We can't do anything about it now. The two of them forming an alliance to deal with Whitebeard is a good thing for us. If we interfere, it will be bad. ... Let them fight each other, Sakaski... Before we are ready and break free from all the shackles of the navy, we must keep the pirates, otherwise all our efforts will be in vain. Without prey, what use will the World Government have to raise hunting dogs? When the birds are gone, the good bows are hidden. Let's do as arranged by Admiral Sengoku and the Marshal. At this stage, we just need to keep the gateway waters firmly in the hands of our navy and prepare for the attack. After we solve the internal problems, we can deal with these pirates." Diarmuid said softly.

Sakaski sighed slightly and said, "That's all we can do."

Although he was a little unhappy, he was still able to listen to the advice and understood the truth.

If the Navy were to kill Whitebeard, Kaido, Charlotte, and Linlin right now, and wipe out all the pirates in the New World, would the World Government still provide so much military funding every year? Would it still treat the Navy so favorably? ...Please give me flowers.

It is impossible that without external threats, the navy will become a threat to the world government, and arrangements must be made to suppress the navy again.

This is not in the interests of the Navy, and it is not appropriate for the Navy to create any rift with the World Government at this stage.

Just keep a low profile for a while, until the economic lifeline is sorted out, the plan for the Seven Warlords of the Sea is arranged, the Admiral becomes the commander-in-chief, and all these internal chaos are resolved. Without the support and funding of the World Government, the Navy can still operate stably. That is the time to really start taking action and clearing the universe!

In fact, ever since the World Government ignored the will of the Navy and insisted on implementing the Seven Warlords of the Sea plan, the senior officials within the Navy have already reached a consensus on this matter.

Therefore, after 1502 years of the Haiyuan calendar, the navy has not done anything really big until now. On the surface, it seems that the navy has been exhausted in order to maintain the status quo of the sea, and has no extra energy to meddle in other people's affairs.

In fact, the will of the top leaders of the navy has been placed on sorting out the internal affairs of the navy.

In the past few years, those who are pro-World Government among the middle and lower-level navy have had a hard time and have almost no room for advancement. This is just one manifestation of this.

As for the top management?

Sorry, the Navy's top brass currently don't have anyone close to the World Government...

This is what Diarmait has been doing for more than a decade.

"We should focus on the weak and catch the weak. For now, we don't need to worry about the mature top pirate groups like Kaido, Whitebeard, and Big Mom. We can use them as our trademarks and first kill the pirate groups like Shanks that have the potential to reach the top. This will prevent them from jumping out to cause trouble when we take action against the pirates in the New World in the future." Diarmait said with a smile.

This is also a policy that the Marshal has been implementing in recent years. The Navy has been specifically capturing and eliminating potential pirate organizations like the Straw Hat Pirates.

After a brief pause, Diarmait said in a deep voice, "I don't care about anything else. Since the Marshal has given me the order, I must not let Shanks go this time. Either kill him directly, or send him to prison in Impeldown! All of you, please be alert and don't try any fancy tricks. If Shanks escapes, I'll be the first to hold you accountable!"

Gion, Flying Squirrel, Burning Mountain, Spider Demon and others immediately stood at attention and saluted, saying, "Yes, Admiral!" Sakaski did not respond. After all, he and Diarmait were of the same rank, both were admirals of the navy.

However, it can also be seen that he was intimidated by Diarmait's momentum. After all, Diarmait had been the general for almost eight years, and Sakaski had just taken office not long ago. In terms of the power of the general, Diarmait was still stronger.

He could include Sakaski in his remarks, but Sakaski would never dare to include Diarmuid in his remarks.

Just as Diarmait finished speaking, the Queen, who had just hung up on the Den Den Mushi not long ago, called the Den Den Mushi again.

"It seems the Queen is very efficient," Diarmait said with a smile. He then picked up the Den Den Mushi and asked, "How's it going? Have you found any news about that guy?"

Queen Stussy didn't keep the secret and said directly: "No, there isn't. My Happy Street base is on those two islands. I have just checked the intelligence, and the Straw Hat Pirates did not appear on those two islands." "Really? I understand. Thank you, Ms. Stussy." Diarmait said politely.

Without any delay, Diarmait quickly hung up, put away the Den Den Mushi and said: "Okay, now we can lock onto this uninhabited island, full speed ahead!"

Right

Chapter 249 Kaido: If I marry Lingling, wouldn’t that be heaven! ?

New World. Totland. Cake Island.

This is the headquarters of the Big Mom Pirates and also the capital of Totland, the capital of the Wano Country.

At this time, in the port of this island, a pirate ship with a ghost head flying on it slowly anchored in the port, which was out of tune with the pirate group flying the Big Mom flag in the port.

Not long after, a tall and strong figure walked down from the boat. He was accompanied by a little guy who looked very young, about fifteen or sixteen years old.

This tall guy is Kaido. He is shirtless, wearing black trousers, a long plush coat, and two horns on his forehead. He looks mighty and domineering.

However, there was a conspicuous scar on his muscular chest, which ran from his shoulder to his navel.

This scar was naturally caused by Diarmuid's knife.

As soon as Kaido got off the ship, Katakuri, the leader of the Big Mom Pirates, walked up to him and said softly, "Lord Kaido, welcome to Cake Island. Mom has been waiting for you for a long time."

Kaido didn't say anything, just nodded to Katakuri, and then said: "Jack, let's go."

"Yes, Boss Kaido!" The young boy next to Kaido responded.

It turns out that he is the famous shipping tycoon Jack.

Although Jack looks very young, and one can tell that he is only fifteen or sixteen years old, if you look at his physique, you will find that this boy is very strong. He does not look like a teenager at all, but rather like a big and strong thug.

After Kaido "escaped" the control of the World Government, he met this kid on his way back to the New World.

He discovered that Jack was a devil fruit user, possessing the ancient species of the Elephant Fruit, the power of a mammoth.

Kaido is a guy who has a strong preference for animal-type devil fruit users. In addition, he doesn't have many powerful guys under his command, so only Quinn and King can hold the fort.

Kaido was very happy with Jack's appearance. After observing him for a while, he found that Jack was particularly to his taste.

Being young and an ancient animal-type ability user, he had never joined any messy organizations or forces. Kaido took a liking to this kid at first sight, and then took him back to Wano Country. He kept Jack by his side and taught him carefully.

But to be honest, Kaido's teaching ability is really not that good. He is a monster who eats talent and is not qualified to be a teacher.

Therefore, Jack did not learn many skills from Kaido, but it was better than nothing and much better than trying to make it on his own.

However, although Jack did not learn Kaido's skills, he did learn most of Kaido's personality and style of doing things.

At this point, he has completely become a reckless man who fears nothing, and whoever he dislikes, he will just attack!

It was precisely because of Jack's reckless character that Kaido loved him. So when he came to meet Charlotte and Linlin this time, Kaido did not bring Quinn or Jin, but brought the little guy Jack instead.

Under the leadership of Katakuri, Kaido came to the castle of Cake Island carefree.

Soon, Kaido saw Charlotte. Linlin, Charlotte at this time. Linlin's figure became even more bloated, and she looked much fatter. Her originally decent appearance also began to change shape.

But it doesn't matter, Kaido is not here for Charlotte and Linlin's looks.

When he saw Charlotte Lingling, the old woman was eating and drinking voraciously. She had already eaten most of the desserts on the table. Even so, saliva was still overflowing from the corners of her mouth. The saliva was tinged with stomach acid, and a drop of it fell on the table and burned a small hole.

After seeing Kaido, Charlotte Linlin didn't say anything, but just pointed to the big sofa in the distance.

Kaido didn't care about these things, as he was very familiar with Charlotte and Linlin, but Jack couldn't stand it. In his opinion, Kaido was the strongest and invincible.

The boss came to Cake Island in person to meet this Charlotte. Lingling, how dare this old woman act so arrogant?

"Asshole!!! Who do you think we are!? Show some respect to Boss Kaido! Old woman!" Jack cursed angrily.

Kaido and Katakuri were stunned. Charlotte and Linlin stopped eating the snack.

“Hahahahahaha…” Kaido suddenly burst into laughter.

Charlotte. Linlin also laughed out loud, and Katakuri slightly suppressed his surprised expression and stepped aside.

At this moment, Charlotte Lingling suddenly grabbed Jack, and a dark green soul power burst out from her arm, turning into a large hand and pinching Jack in the air.

"Kid, who do you think you are talking to?" Charlotte Lingling said with an evil smile.

Jack struggled a few times, but found that the seemingly invisible restraints, even with his proud strength, could not be broken free. However, he did not panic, and remained extremely arrogant. He shouted angrily: "Isn't she just an old woman who lost to the Straw Hat Pirates?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of anger appeared in Charlotte Lingling's eyes.

It was at this moment that Kaido said, "Lingling, you are so old now, why don't you stop getting angry with the little brat?"

"Hmph!" Charlotte Lingling snorted coldly and swung her hand violently. Jack was directly smashed out and hit the castle wall, spitting out a mouthful of blood.

It looks like the injury is neither light nor serious.

Kaido had no intention of caring about Jack. Jack had just exposed Charlotte Linlin's scar, which was already too much. Charlotte Linlin didn't kill him, which was considered to be giving Kaido face.

"Jack, shut up and stand aside." Kaido ordered calmly.

This guy Jack looked like he didn't care about anyone and was determined to do something, but he was extremely respectful to Kaido and obeyed his orders. As soon as Kaido spoke, he lowered his shoulders, stood up, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and stood aside.

During this time, he also glared at Katakuri fiercely.

This made Katakuri very confused. He was a little confused about this guy's train of thought. What's going on? Why are you glaring at me?

Iron Head Kid, huh?

Kaido was in no hurry. He just sat on the sofa without saying a word, looking around at Charlotte and Linlin's castle.

Charlotte. Lingling didn't bother with that little brat Jack anymore, and quickly cleared away the remaining desserts on the table without any manners.

After she finished eating it, she looked at Kaido and said, "You came all the way from Wano Country to see me. That means you've given up on your ways, right? Kaido?"

Kaido then looked at Charlotte. Lingling said with a somewhat unhappy look, "Why do you have to care so much?"

"Mamamama..." Charlotte Lingling laughed in her unique voice, and then said, "It seems that it is correct."

Indeed, Kaido's original plan was to develop quietly in Wano Country for ten to twenty years, accumulate enough strength, and wait for the situation to change before he took action.

In the original story, Kaido was almost the same, accumulating strength all the time until the pirate kingship war broke out in the New World. He then truly participated, no longer being silent, and became one of the so-called Four Emperors in one breath.

But now, due to Diarmait's intrusion, Kaido was captured and imprisoned for two and a half years. During his absence, the Beasts Pirates were leaderless, Quinn and King were dissatisfied with each other and engaged in internal strife, and the samurai in Wano Country were also ready to move, causing a lot of trouble.

Destruction comes much faster and more fiercely than construction. In just two and a half years, all of Kaido's accumulated wealth was destroyed, his arms business was almost wiped out, and he couldn't find many good talents among his subordinates.

Basically, it means he has to start all over again.

So Kaido has been very unhappy in the past two years and doesn't want to mention this to anyone.

"I didn't come here to talk nonsense with you, Linlin!" Kaido said in a deep voice.

"I've told you long ago that your approach isn't suitable, and Wano Country isn't a good place, but you refused to listen. If you had joined forces with me back then, we wouldn't be in this situation now. The Whitebeard Pirates wouldn't have grown to this point, and Roger might not even have become the Pirate King. If you and I had joined forces, we would have killed Shiki, Roger, and Whitebeard long ago!" Charlotte Lingling cursed.

However, Kaido didn't take it seriously at all. He knew that Charlotte and Linlin were just bragging. Even if the two of them joined forces, they would not be a match for Roger, Newgate, and Shiki more than ten years ago.

Although they didn't want to admit it, that era truly belonged to the three of them.

During that period, whether it was Kaido, Charlotte, or Linlin, he could only be a stinky little brother.

And now, the reason why Charlotte Lingling said all this was simply because she wanted to seize the initiative in this alliance.

Kaido looks like a reckless man on the surface, but in fact, he knows this very well.

If possible, he would certainly like to be the leader and boss of this 'Pirate Alliance'.

But he knew that was impossible now. Perhaps in terms of personal strength, he was not inferior to Charlotte. Lingling, even if the two fought for ten days and ten nights, it would probably be impossible to determine the winner.

But in terms of overall strength, the Big Mom Pirates are undoubtedly stronger. Led by Katakuri, the Big Mom Pirates boast numerous experts, most of whom are Charlotte. Linlin's biological bloodline, this family-based pirate group is inherently formidable, not to mention Charlotte. Linlin is in charge of everything.

Anyway, judging from the overall strength of the pirate groups, Kaido had to admit that his Beasts Pirates were much worse than Charlotte Linlin's Big Mom Pirates.

Charlotte Linlin is already capable of competing with the Whitebeard Pirates. The two sides have fought many times before. Although Charlotte Linlin lost more than she won, in the end, wasn't Whitebeard still unable to do anything to her?

The two sides even almost signed a peace ceasefire agreement, but Kaido and Diarmait suddenly appeared and ruined it, leading to the current situation...

In short, when he came here, Kaido had already figured it out. He probably couldn't be the leader of this alliance, so it had to be Charlotte and Linlin.
