Chapter 212: Unjustly imprisoned
"Titch is really your uniform?"
Sengoku's questioning voice echoed through the office.
"That's right!"
Hearing this, Bucky immediately put on a smug face, and subconsciously brought out the rhetoric he boasted in front of his colleagues not long ago:
"At that time, Natic descended from the sky to raid the headquarters, but I sensed it in advance, but I didn't show it, just waiting for the moment he landed..."
"Huh?"
Karp, who was sitting on the side, quietly showed his fist the size of a casserole.
"Hmm..."
Bucky silently closed his mouth, and then said something under Cap's caring eyes:
"I just kicked him like that, and he just fell out of the sky."
"Sure enough..."
Sengoku glanced at Bucky angrily:
Although anyone with a discerning eye can see through the truth behind it, there are many blind people in this world.
It was only an hour before Titch fell into the legal net, and Colonel Bucky's great achievements in capturing the enemy with one move had already spread throughout the entire naval headquarters, and it was faintly created in people's minds that he was a master who overwhelmed the three generals and was comparable to the four emperors.
It's not hard to imagine that this rumor would soon spread across the sea at the speed of a virus spreading along the Navy's communications system.
"Ugh..."
Sengoku sighed lightly, and only said to Bucky: "You go down first!" β
"Yes!"
Bucky nodded hurriedly, and hurried out of the solemn office with a smirk on his face.
It's not that Bucky is cowardly, but now in addition to Sengoku and Karp, there is also Vice Admiral Tsuru, the "big staff officer" of the Navy.
The three people gathered together now are veterans who chased Captain Roger, whom he admired back then, all over the world.
"Bucky's matter, do you want to refute the rumors?"
Karp asked casually, chewing on a doughnut.
"There's no need."
Tsuru, who had been silent, finally spoke, his voice cold and steady:
"Let outsiders think that our navy has an extra 'admiral' master, but it can enhance the deterrence of the navy to a certain extent."
"That's right."
Sengoku nodded, and added:
"Moreover, Baji originally joined the Navy as a member of the One Piece crew."
"If you put the credit for capturing the pirate Tiki on him, and then contact his original identity for some publicity, you can also curb some of the residual poison of One Piece Roger's thoughts."
The One Piece crew went to the navy and made a great contribution in the navy, which is indeed a good promotional material.
And under the personal demonstration of a certain supernova, the marshal of the Warring States period also unconsciously mastered this kind of thinking and skills of opening up the battlefield of public opinion and fighting a war with a pen.
"Ugh..."
Karp grabbed another doughnut and said with some emotion, "You tricksters have a lot of brains!" β
"Let's not mention that, the most important question right now is-"
Lieutenant General Crane ignored Karp's complaints, which he hadn't stopped complaining about for decades, and just said with a serious expression:
"That Marshall M. D. Titch, how to kill? β
The air in the office suddenly fell silent, and even Karp put down the doughnut in his hand with a solemn expression.
Sengoku and Karp both understood the meaning behind this question in their hearts:
Tiqi killed the Draco people on the street, committing an undoubted capital crime, but he was very particular about the way he died.
If it were to be executed directly, the situation would be very simple, just one more tombstone in the pirates' graveyard.
If the execution is made public, it will be a war against the Whitebeard Pirates.
A great war does not mean that a war can be started, there must be a reason behind it:
In the years leading up to this, the navy that wanted to return to the New World had repeatedly clashed violently with the Four Emperor Pirates, and the conflict between the two sides had accumulated to a point where it was about to erupt.
If the navy wants to regain its prestige and re-establish order, it must show a considerable record of being able to suppress the era of pirates, and Whitebeard, known as the "strongest man in the world", is the best target.
The arrest of an important person is nothing more than the fuse of war.
The fuse itself is not important, if you really want to go to war, a tube of laundry detergent can become the fuse.
And the issue that Sengoku, Karp, and Tsuru are discussing now is not actually how to execute Titch, but whether to directly detonate this powder keg that will change the world pattern.
"Let's be executed publicly!"
In the silence, the first to express his opinion was Karp, who was usually not in tune at all.
Hearing this extremely serious tone, both Sengoku and Tsuru understood in their hearts that Karp had made an extremely serious decision.
"Why?"
The two of them cast inquiring glances in unison.
"Sooner or later, this battle will be fought! That being the case..."
Karp quietly clenched his fists, and his bulging muscles stretched out many tough lines in a suit:
"Then while we old guys can still go to the battlefield, ignite the flames of war!"
"Good!"
The Warring States shouted, and there was a bit of fighting spirit in his eyes that he had only when he was young.
He pondered for a moment, and immediately made a decision:
"Then put Tiqi in the Advance City Prison first, and then secretly recruit the elite navies scattered around the world."
"When the war is ready, the news of the public execution will be announced to the world!"
............................................................................
Navy Headquarters Hospital.
Tiki woke up from his stupor, and there was a sharp pain and weakness in the musculoskeletal muscles of his body.
After Kaido, Titch became the second man in the world to successfully challenge an unprotected bungee jump at a height of 10,000 meters.
But it's not hard for Titch to do:
Because of air resistance, the ultimate speed of human beings falling in a skydiving posture and with their limbs open is 50m/s, which is 180km/h;
Considering its own mass, the kinetic lethality of this impact is roughly the same as that of a large truck driving on the highway.
Ordinary people naturally can't help but bump into each other, but it doesn't have much impact on a superhuman like Tichy.
What really made Titch collapse on the hospital bed and couldn't take care of himself was the previous destruction of him by the three top powerhouses of Red Inu, Yellow Ape, and Golden Lion.
And what bothered Titch the most was not the injury on his body, but a very serious question:
"Where am I now?"
All he remembered was that he had lost consciousness after smashing the island with all his might and jumping from the sky.
Now when Tiki opened his eyes, he saw not the vast sea he had imagined, but a neat and spacious strange room.
Titch struggled to straighten up half of his hospital bed and took in the room.
Then, at a glance, he saw the large navy logo painted on the wall.
Looking through the glass window, the landmark building of the Navy Headquarters stands clearly in the distance, and the flag of the seagull wrench is hung everywhere.
"I was caught by the Navy and sent to the headquarters?!"
Titch looked surprised, and figured out the joints in a split second:
Before the golden lion fought him, he had already driven the floating island to the sky above the naval headquarters.
No wonder the old guy deliberately delayed for so long before he started, it turned out that he was waiting here for him to die!
Titch gritted his teeth in hatred, but there was inevitably a lingering panic in his heart.
Since the founding of the world government, a hero who attacks the Draco people can emerge every ten years, but the only strong man who dares to kill the Draco people on the street is really his Blackbeard Titch.
It is impossible to commit such a serious crime and not die in the hands of the Navy.
"No! I can't die here! β
The desire to survive that had sustained Titch all the way here came into play again, allowing him to roll over from his hospital bed with his battered body.
But before Titch could take a step, the door to the hospital room was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and a tall man walked up to him under his desperate gaze.
"How many hours did you wake up?"
Kuzan glanced at Titch, who was already able to walk on the ground, and exclaimed lukewarmly: "The vitality is really tenacious. β
"Now that you're awake..."
And he looked serious, and said coldly to Titch:
"Then let's get on the road!"
The task of escorting Tiki to Advance City was assigned to Kuzan, who had the strongest control ability, by Sengoku.
So Kuzan waited outside the hospital room until TiΔ was out of danger and sent him to jail.
"On the road?"
Titch's black face was suddenly shocked by three points, and he couldn't help but exclaim in his heart:
The Navy is in such a hurry to kill me?!
I, Tiqi, have gone through a lot of hardships and dangers all the way to heaven and earth, and I am going to die here in the end?
That kind of unwillingness rose in Titch's heart, but it didn't play a role after all, because his body had already been squeezed to the limit in the previous series of battles.
Heaven will die for me!
Titch's heart was filled with sorrow, so desperate that even his big white teeth lost their brilliance.
While he was stunned, the navy soldiers who followed Kuzan had stepped forward in an orderly manner, putting heavy shackles on Titch, who was powerless to resist.
Then, a group of naval soldiers pushed Tiqi violently, as if he was about to be sent to the execution ground.
"Wait!"
Titch struggled to move two steps, but suddenly stopped.
Angry flames welled up in his desperate eyes, and two heartfelt words burst out of his mouth uncontrollably:
"General Kuzan! I want to report it! β
"Even if I die, I can't make that shameless man feel better!"
The sailors' movements froze in unison, and they couldn't help but turn their curious eyes on this ferocious sea thief.
But Kuzan was slightly stunned when he heard this, and even his face was a little stiff:
"What do you want to report?"
Titch gritted his teeth for a while, almost holding back two bloody tears:
"Believe it or not, but I must tell the truth!"
"It wasn't my intention to kill the Celestial Dragons, but the poisonous hands of the Seven Martial Seas Galen!"
"He has a strange trick of forcing others to attack, you can investigate this!"
As soon as this big news came out, the Navy soldiers were shocked.
And Tiqi is still unfinished, and he roars more than once:
"Later, the golden lion also killed the Tianlong people on the street, I guess this may have nothing to do with that Galen!"
He bit at will, and actually picked up the truth by mistake.
The air froze, and Kuzan's face stiffened to the extreme.
After a long silence, Kuzan looked back at Titch with an indifferent expression, and said coldly:
"Galen and I were present when the Golden Lion committed the crime."
"Do you want to say that I, the Admiral, and Galen, the Seven Martial Seas, are conspiring to assassinate the Celestial Dragons?!"
Everyone was slightly stunned, and in an instant, a burst of laughter sounded among the naval soldiers:
"Hahaha..."
"This guy is not honest when he is dying, and he even dares to slander the Seven Martial Seas and General Kuzan!"
In the midst of the laughter, no one cared about Titch's revelations.
But Titch's heart moved, and he excitedly pointed to Kuzan's nose and scolded:
"You! You're in league with that guy..."
"Shut up!"
Kuzan snorted coldly, and in an instant, the temperature around him dropped to freezing.
A cloud of snow and ice spread, completely sealing Titch's restless mouth.
Titch was distracted and restless, but in utter indignation, he was escorted away by Kuzan and the other sailors.
It was getting late, and the sky was dark.
The ice crystals are filled, and it is better to look like snow in June.
