From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

The warship was swift, riding the Justice Current, circling the triangle and arriving at Judiciary Island first. However, Diarmait and his companions didn't even disembark. Spandane waved his hand helplessly at the harbor, a farewell to the unremarkable General Diarmait. …

He watched as the two warships rode the current back towards Marineford at an extremely fast speed.

Speaking of which, Spandine has also been packing up these two days.

He is a die-hard member of Queen Stussy's faction. Now the Queen has become the director-general of the CP agency. Spandine has accumulated some merits in Alabasta last time. Even if he failed to capture Princess Vivi, his merits definitely outweigh his faults.

This time, as soon as the Queen came to power, she planned to promote Spandine to CP-0.

It wasn't even dark yet, but Diarmuid and the others had already returned to Marine Headquarters.

Just as they were about to get off the boat, Luffy ran over with the roster in his arms, his face bruised and swollen, and said, "Uncle Diarmait, is this Momo Fruit very powerful?" Garp and Diarmait's eyes lit up, and Diarmait nodded with a smile, "Yes, it's very powerful." "Then can I defeat you by eating it? Can I become the King of the Navy?" Luffy asked again.

Garp was about to lecture Luffy again, but before he could open his mouth, he saw Diarmait and said with a smile: "It should be very possible, Luffy, this is a powerful ability, I support you to eat it..."

Garp sighed upon seeing this. Diarmait was indeed a broad-minded man...

But at this moment, he suddenly felt something was wrong. When had Diarmait ever been so gentle and kind to Luffy?

When something is abnormal, there must be something fishy.

Then, he was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized, damn, no wonder this guy wanted me to eat the Momo Fruit...

With the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit that Diarmuid possesses now, if you don't become a user of special abilities, you will be a greater threat to him. But if you become a user of special abilities, he can use the power of the Dark-Dark Fruit, combined with gravity, to do whatever he wants with you!

If Garp were to face Diarmuid now, with his own strength, he would have at least a 30% or even a 40% chance of winning.

But if you believe his lies and eat the Momo Fruit, your chances of winning against others may greatly increase. Even against Newgate, there probably won't be too much of a stalemate and you will be able to win.

But if it really comes to his turn to face Diarmait, then forget it, the original 30% to 40% chance of winning can only be maintained at 10% at most.

Therefore, theoretically speaking, eating the Momo Fruit will definitely make you stronger, but when facing Diarmuid, 2.9 may become the biggest flaw!

In other words, if Luffy hadn't eaten it and hadn't become a superpower user, he might have had a chance to compete with Diarmait in the future. But if he ate it now, he would have been beaten by Diarmait in the future...

However, although Karp figured this out, he did not stop anything.

Because there is no need to do so. We are not on the same side anyway, so why should we always compare ourselves with Diarmait?

That guy is a monster!

A true monster, after all, no one can really eat two devil fruits, isn't that strange?

Luffy certainly didn't think as much as Garp. Seeing that Diarmait and his father both supported him, he really felt that this ability must be very powerful.

hundred times……

Maybe I can really defeat Diarmait?

Even if it doesn't work, I should be able to compete with Ace, right?

Thinking of this, Luffy said excitedly: "Then I want to eat the Momo Fruit!"

"Hahahahaha, okay." Diarmait laughed and patted Luffy's head.

But it's a bit late today, not to mention the fatigue from the long journey, it's almost dark. Eating the devil fruit might have some serious side effects, so the navy is basically accompanied by someone. The Momo fruit is so powerful, Diarmuid also thinks it's better to be cautious.

So I plan to arrange for Luffy to officially absorb this ability tomorrow.

Soon, the group disembarked from the warship and dispersed within Marineford.

Chapter 402 Borsalino: How enviable.

Early in the morning, Diarmait woke up from his sleep, rubbed his eyes drowsily, and found that there was no one in the room.

After getting dressed, washing, and cleaning up, Diarmait walked out of the house and found Gion and Tina in their pajamas, preparing breakfast in the living room. Diarmait seemed accustomed to this kind of life, and he didn't seem surprised at all. He yawned and asked, "What are you eating?" Just then, Tina brought breakfast to the table and said, "Come on, eat some bread. It's a light breakfast." Soon, the three of them sat down and chatted while eating breakfast.

"What are your plans for today, General?" Tina asked.

Diarmait swallowed the bread and said, "I'm going to meet the marshal. We made an appointment last night." Tina nodded and said nothing more. After eating a little more, Diarmait looked at Gion and said, "What about you?"

Gion took a sip of hot milk, thought for a moment, and then said, "As for me, I will go to the Intelligence Department, and then maybe to Marijoa to maintain order in the port..." "Marijoa... So, the royal family of the member states has already arrived?" Diarmuid asked again.

"Well, there are one hundred members of the royal family who will attend this meeting. Some of them are in the Golden City and can arrive in Mary Geoise at any time. Some have already arrived in Mary Geoise. In the future, there will be more and more people there who will need our help." Gion nodded.

"Then you won't be back in the next few days?" Diarmait asked again.

"He probably won't come back." Gion said with a smile.

"Tsk tsk..." Diarmait smacked his lips, looking a little dissatisfied. Gion asked with a bit of amusement, "What's the matter?"

"I was thinking, we have been separated recently. Either I go out, or you go out." Diarmait said with a little emotion.

"You are the admiral of the navy, and I am the candidate for admiral. This is how it should be." Gion responded with a smile.

They did not feel melancholy because of these romantic affairs, and soon Diarmuid and the other two finished their breakfast.

Diarmuid picked up the cloak of justice hanging at the door, draped it over his shoulders, looked back at Tina and Gion and said, "Then I'll go first." "Don't I have to go?" Tina asked while washing dishes.

"No need, I'll give you a day off today." Diarmuid waved his hand and walked out of the house.

The place where Diarmuid lived in Marineford was a residential area for senior generals. Only lieutenant generals could live here, and major generals were not qualified to hang around here.

After walking on the street for a while, I saw three figures in front of me. Two of them seemed to be arguing about something, and they looked like they were about to fight if they disagreed.

Diarmait was surprised at first. Who is this? Who is so bold as to cause trouble here?

But when I got closer, I saw, ah, Borsalino, Sakaski, and Kuzan?

And the ones arguing were Kuzan and Sakaski...

That's fine.

Although Sakaski's temper and behavior have become much more restrained, he and Kuzan don't quarrel every day when they meet, but they still have a big fight occasionally.

Sometimes the two of them would even fight.

However, both of them are sensible people and will not make things irreparable.

Sometimes after arguing during the day, we would meet at the Navy Club in the evening and have a couple of drinks.

Anyway, Diarmait was somewhat used to it.

Diarmait walked over carelessly, glanced at Borsalino who was standing by and watching the show, and said unhappily, "Are you really just going to watch?"

Borsalino rolled his eyes at Diarmuid and said, "What else? It's been decades since then, and you're going to try to persuade him?"

"Please stop arguing here. It will have a bad influence. We might as well go out and fight." Diarmuid smacked his lips and said.

After saying this, Diarmuid took two steps forward and stood between Kuzan and Sakaski, separating them. He then said, "It's so early in the morning, can you please be quiet for a bit? If I were you, would you mind stopping the quarreling and picking a time to go out and have a fight?"

"Hmph, just hit me if you want to. Why would I be afraid of him?" Sakaski snorted coldly.

But he didn't say anything else.

Kuzan also said unhappily: "Don't think that I won't dare to fight you just because you are a general!"

Well... I've fought many times.

Although they quarreled fiercely, it seemed that the two of them were used to it. Borsalino and Diarmait were also used to it. Soon, after the quarrel, the four of them actually set off together.

Diarmait quietly asked Borsalino what the quarrel was about.

The result is not surprising, it is still due to the problem of belief and ideals.

After all, the biggest difference between the two people is about one thing.

"I'm so envious..." Borsalino and Diarmuid were walking behind, and when they saw Kuzan and Sakaski in front of them ignoring each other, they suddenly sighed.

Diarmait was lighting a cigar. After hearing this, he exhaled a puff of smoke and said, "What are you envious of?"

"I envy them both," Borsalino said softly. After a brief pause, he added, "I envy people with ideals."

Diarmuid was stunned for a moment. There was nothing wrong with what you said about Sakaski, but as for Kuzan... then Xianyu can also be considered to have ideals?

But if you think about it carefully, there should be one, right?

Maybe he is lazy, but he is really a man with ideals.

It’s just that Diarmuid didn’t know how to describe Kuzan’s ideals. Of course, he couldn’t describe Sakaski’s ideals either.

“You didn’t?” Diarmait asked.

"Me?" Borsalino was stunned for a moment, looked at Diarmait, and then said: "No, I don't have what you three have." "The three of us?" Diarmait was surprised again, then laughed and said: "The two of them are almost the same, I don't count..." Ideals... beliefs... Diarmait always felt that he could not find these illusory things.

Just like the question that Zephyr and Sengoku asked him when they entered Marineford, what is your justice?

Diarmait may still not be able to answer this question.

Even though he has acted very righteously for so many years...

And because of Borsalino's sigh, Diarmait suddenly understood what he meant... Yes, now looking at Sakaski and Kuzan, even Diarmait felt a little envious.

A person with ideals, or a person with beliefs.

There is no doubt that both Sakaski and Kuzan are the kind of people who are willing to sacrifice their lives for the beliefs and ideals they pursue.

In the original story, the battle of Punk Hazard has already proved this.

Kuzan almost died at the hands of Sakaski, but Sakaski was unable to kill him.

But before that, the two of them really risked their lives and fought for their respective pursuits and beliefs.

So, it can be said that they are the kind of people who are willing to die for their beliefs and ideals.

It sounded a bit stupid, but at this moment, Diarmait was a little envious.

And he more or less understood Borsalino's envy.

In fact, they are both the same.

The reason for their envy may be that they don’t know what they might die for.

Seeing Diarmait's expression, which was suddenly lost in thought, Borsalino smiled and whispered softly, "No, it's you three..."

Perhaps Diarmait himself couldn't feel it, but Borsalino could understand. Diarmait's beliefs and pursuits might not have anything to do with justice, but at least he did have them. And in Borsalino's view, what Diarmait pursued was naturally power. …

If Kuzan and Sakaski are the kind of people who are willing to die for the justice they uphold, then Diarmuid is the kind of person who is not afraid of life and death in pursuit of power.

This kind of belief has nothing to do with the level of the situation; Borsalino is very envious anyway.

Because he could never figure out why he was willing to die?

It seems not?

A bystander sees things more clearly. Borsalino saw it clearly, but Diarmait himself couldn't figure it out.
