"Damn it!"

"Why is it troublesome, again and again in the West Sea!"

In the vice admiral's office of the Navy Headquarters, Dauberman looked at a document on the table, listened to the report of the subordinate next to him, and couldn't help but curse angrily.

Before, because of the matter of the ghost hand Rhodes, he was reprimanded by the red dog, and he was almost driven out of the Navy Headquarters to hunt down Rhodes in person, and now that the Rhodes incident has only been half a month, another double-sword pirate group has emerged.

"Take a fake one and replace it, a bunch of bastards from the G8 branch base!"

After carefully reading the report, Dauberman couldn't help but scold the G8 branch base on the great route.

Obviously, although the G8 branch base defeated the ghost sword pirates that time, it failed to catch the captain's ghost sword, and someone grabbed a fake one for the sake of military merit, and now that the matter is exposed, the other party directly took out the Dafa of shirk, saying that he didn't know anything.

In this case, at most, it is impossible to directly remove from his post and investigate after deducting some military merits.

"Lieutenant General Dauberman, what are we going to do...... In the case of the Ghost Hand Pirates, unless the base captain on the Great Voyage leads the team, it will not be solved at all, and this Twin Sword Pirates will be almost difficult to deal with. ”

A major general in charge of supervising the West Sea asked with an embarrassed face.

"It is impossible to send the lieutenant general base commander of the Great Route to the West Sea, which will cause problems in the deployment of troops on the Great Route, and the generals will not agree."

Dauberman covered his forehead with a headache, if only one twin swords would be enough, and now there is an even more troublesome Ghost Hand Pirates, he never thought that the West Sea in the four seas would be so difficult to deal with.

At this moment, a major general next to him suddenly thought of something, and reported in a low voice: "By the way, Vice Admiral Dauberman, after the Ghost Hand Pirates replaced a new ship in Shipwrights Town, the recent course seems to be surprisingly consistent with the Twin Swords Pirates......"

"Oh?"

Dauberman was slightly stunned, thinking of the fact that wherever Rhodes went, whether it was the navy or the pirates, all of them were destroyed, and he couldn't help but show a look of thought.

"If the Ghost Hand Pirates and the Twin Swords Pirates meet, they may fight to the death and lose both, in that case, there may be a chance...... Pass the order, let the nearest Xihai branch be ready, supervise their actions at all times, and do not act without orders! ”

"Yes!"

The major general stepped back.

……

Ghost Shadow, training room.

More than a dozen heavy sandbags of different sizes hung there and swayed, and Rhodes closed his eyes, but as if he could see in all directions, avoiding each one with great precision.

More than half a month has passed since the completion of the Ghost Shadow, and in this more than half a month, Rhodes's domineering ability has been completely mastered, and in the interface of the talent system, the branches of the domineering spirit have also turned into activated gold.

Today, he shuttles back and forth among more than ten sandbags, which is as simple as eating and drinking, even if it is a rain of bullets, he can still walk on the ground with his domineering appearance.

Besides.

Rhodes has also not let go of the strengthening exercise of physical fitness and the training of the ability of the Devil Fruit, and the Twisted Fruit and physical fitness have been slightly improved, and the scope of effect of the Twisted Power has become a little larger.

The Devil Fruit, a Twisted Fruit, seems to have countless development abilities in countless directions from the talent tree of the talent system alone, but it is not so simple to operate in practice.

Rhodes tried to develop the ability to twist gravity in advance without systematically improving it, but the result was a failure, and the warping force could not touch the ethereal gravity at all.

Obviously, it is extremely difficult to transfer from the distortion of matter to the distortion of illusory power, and if there is no talent system, it is likely that it will not be possible at all, just like Whitebeard's shock fruit, no matter how powerful, it can't shatter the real space and time, and what is shattered is only the atmosphere.

But.

Rhodes has taken a little bit of progress in the direction of distorting sound, because sound is still a little more traceable than gravity.

"Almost."

After a few more exercises in the swinging sandbags, Rhodes stepped out of them and went to the corner of the room, where he put a few extremely heavy weights on his back and began to do simple push-ups and squats.

He had considered using the Hailou Stone for exercise before, but he forgot to collect the Hailou Stone stick and bullets when he killed Carpenbecchi, and then it became very troublesome to buy it again, and he couldn't buy it on the underground black market on several islands.

Call! Call!

In the constant ups and downs, Rhodes, who was naked and upper-body, began to sweat on his body, constantly dripping on the cold floor.

The weight he carries is a very special mineral material in this world, which is very strong, but the weight is higher than steel, and a small piece can withstand a large piece of steel.

With his current physical fitness, carrying a large piece of this kind of weight on his back is also very effective in exercising.

"One hundred and thirty-one, one hundred and thirty-two......"

Rhodes kept counting in his heart.

Half an hour later.

After doing a thousand push-ups, Rhodes got up and drank some water, and after resting for ten minutes, he began to practice a thousand squats again.

When the thousand squats were completed, even with his current physical strength, he was a little out of breath, so after a little rest, he took a shower and suspended his practice.

Leaving the training room, Rhodes went to the upper deck.

Robin was sitting on one side of the deck reading elegantly, while the ship's handymen were busy cleaning the plank, not daring to be lazy.

"There's the Walter Galder Sea ahead, and there's still a day to go at most."

Rhodes came to where Robin was sitting, took out the compass and charts and put them on the table, measured them for a while, judged the current position, and looked at Robin and asked:

"How's the island going over here?"

"According to the information gathered, the waters of Watergold are chaotic, there are no countries, and there are twenty-one islands, one of which is large, six medium-sized islands, and the other fourteen are small islands."

Robin stated all the information he had collected about the waters of Watergold, and together with Rhodes, combined with the nautical charts, he quickly determined the location of each island.

Rhodes bypassed a small island directly in front of him, pointed to a medium-sized island in the back, and said, "You don't need to go to this kind of small island with only one town, just go here...... In this kind of chaotic sea area without a country, the underground forces are intricately intertwined, and intelligence is relatively easy to obtain. ”

Robin nodded.

Two days later, the Ghost arrived on the designated island, anchored near a remote cliff, and Rhodes and Robin landed on the island to gather information.

This time the gathering of information was easier than expected, and although neither of them could gather information about the exact location of the Devil Sheriff Lafitte, the location of the Twin Swords Pirates was determined.
