Chapter Ninety-Six: Clues
The warship seemed to be swimming against the current, its hull shaking violently and making a roar.
A large splash of water splashed and swooped down on Donn, only to be split by an invisible force around him.
Dorrens and the others, as well as the soldiers around them, firmly grasped the things they could rely on, their expressions slightly nervous. Despite the counter-current, the boat is extremely fast.
At this moment, the sails were all high and swollen, constantly twisting, and some corners were torn apart, and blanks appeared.
"Put away the sails, quick!"
Waldford yelled, and the soldiers ran as fast as they could.
The rapids collided, and the warship seemed to be smashed by the impact of the sea water going upstream. But fortunately, the warships that the headquarters is equipped with for Donn are very reliable. Until finally, after a loud bang, the water splashed and the boat fell above sea level.
"Whew!"
Exhaling a breath, Dorrens smiled.
"It's time to the South China Sea! My heart was beating out! ”
Waldford let go of the boat and looked out to sea.
"Are you familiar with the South China Sea?"
Tang En jumped off the bow of the boat and asked with a calm face.
In addition to Waldford, Dorrens, Yuzu, and Pedro, there were also soldiers on the ship who accompanied him for his dispatch. The power of the general is very great, and he can temporarily recruit soldiers from various places.
"I, my hometown is in the South China Sea."
A thin, thin, young navyman raised his hand nervously.
"Then, it's up to you to navigate, and go to the nearest island for a while."
Don commanded softly.
The Navy hurriedly responded.
In the face of the youngest admiral in the history of the navy, an ordinary soldier who has never been in contact with him, he embraces Tang En's arms more of an emotion of awe and admiration.
Looking at him, it's like looking at an idol, and it's natural to be nervous.
And after Tang En passed through so many soldiers in his headquarters, he gradually got used to this kind of gaze, and he treated it indifferently.
After a short rest at sea level, the warship set sail slowly.
Don En was deep-eyed, thinking about something.
The conversation with Karp was very short, and the other party only explained that the clue was in the South China Sea, but the South China Sea is so big, and it is really difficult to determine Lu Jiu's whereabouts at this time.
"This old man, he is in a hurry to say things, and he doesn't make it clear."
After a while, Don was helpless.
The other party was able to get clues about Lu Jiu in the South China Sea, and he must have discovered something, but he only mentioned one sentence, but there was no specific follow-up, and finally hung up the phone in a hurry.
At that time, he was faced with the problem of turning the warship, and he also ignored it.
After a moment's thought, Don dialed the phone bug in the face of Karp's one-sided approach.
"Hey, Donn, I'm eating!"
After the phone bug was connected, he was greeted by Karp's angry voice.
"I'm sorry to bother you, but, Lieutenant General Karp, I want to ask, where is the clue you got in the South China Sea?"
The tone of helplessness in Donn's words was heavy.
He really couldn't help Karp's appearance.
This old guy seems to face everything, with a non-serious, casual attitude. Kuzan followed him, and the future became that way, perhaps because of him.
"South China Sea? I seem to have heard that the group of guys met a woman who was suspected of being Roger's wife on Ruilan Ge'an Island. ”
"At present, a large number of navies are searching around the island."
"You go over there, help from the side, and ask if there's anything you can do to help."
At this, Karp's voice deepened.
"Boy, this thing must be done well!"
Tang En's eyes flickered, and then nodded: "I understand." ”
"Then, Lieutenant General Karp, you can continue eating!"
The phone bug hung up, and Don thought slightly.
He didn't expect the Navy to be able to move so quickly, and he had already discovered Lu Jiu's clues. As for whether this clue is true or false, it is impossible to determine at this time. After all, according to the original book, Lu Jiu hid for more than a year before giving birth to Ace.
And enduring it for so long also exhausted her vitality, causing her to die after giving birth to Ace.
But in any case, Don still decided to go to Ruilan Ge'an Island to have a look, and the current navy in the South China Sea should be gathered there.
"Dorrens, as fast as you can, go to Ruilan'an Island."
Dorrens was unfamiliar with the name of the island, but he quickly agreed.
Don exhaled, his eyes a little deep.
Finding and helping to cover up Portcass D Lujiu is a risky matter. Roger had just been executed, setting off a wave of the era of pirates, and now anyone who had anything to do with him was being closely watched. If it is discovered, with the involvement of admirals, its nature will be incomparably serious.
However, he had to do it.
Not only to promise Roger's promise, but also for the unwillingness in his heart to the outcome of the future battle on top.
Ace, Whitebeard died tragically, and the battle on the top was a pirate death, an event that made people's hearts suffocating.
He wants to rely on his own strength to change this tragedy.
"Perhaps, this is a fight against the general trend of the whole world, but."
Exhaling heavily, Don's face became solemn.
"What should be done, must be done!"
Throughout the plot of One Piece, Luffy's most critical growth is stepping on Ace's corpse, and in the protagonist's journey to the road of kings, Ace's role is so important that you can imagine. In this world, whether it is the will of the world or the trend of major events, if you want to change, it is a struggle, a silent war.
Two days later, after a short rest in a small town, the warship made a quick sail towards the island of Ruilan Ge'an.
Along the way, the speed of the ship was almost at the highest, and although Tang En knew in his heart that Lu Jiu would not be found out so easily, he still had a sense of urgency.
"General, the situation has been found ahead!"
It was noon on the day when Dorrens suddenly ran over and said to Donn.
"Oh? Is it a pirate? ”
Don narrowed his eyes and asked out loud.
"There is a fight, whether it is a pirate or not is not clear yet, only vague artillery fire can be seen."
Dorrance Road.
"Little pirates in the South China Sea, don't tell me, you can't take them yet."
Don closed his eyes and said casually.
"Deal with them, and head at full speed towards Ruilangian Island."
"Yes!"
Dorrens smiled, he didn't mean to ask Don for advice.
The warship continued to move, and when it got closer, it was found that it was two pirate groups exchanging fire.
"Waldford, the two of us, one pirate group per person, is there a problem?"
Dorrance laughed.
"This group of rookies, it's no problem to hand them all over to me!"
Waldford is very inflated, he is a pirate in the second half of the Great Passage, his strength may not be anything in that sea, but in the four seas, it is a super-first-class level.
The two of them looked at each other and smiled, and in an instant, they rushed to the pirates in front of them.
Don sat cross-legged on the bow of the boat, his eyes closed.
His heart net emanated, and he had already observed the situation in front of him clearly, and these two pirate groups had no pressure on the two of them.
