Chapter 37: Misfortune
After Odin followed Sengoku back to the headquarters of Marin Fodo, the warships were replenished, the personnel rested, and three days passed peacefully.
On the morning of the fourth day, Odin set sail with Sengoku again, this time targeting one of the three most famous pirates in the first half of the Great Voyage - the Whitebeard Pirates!
As the person who caused Odin's two failures, Odin can be said to have both hatred and admiration for Whitebeard, which makes Odin feel very conflicted. The admiration was due to Odin's belief that people like Edward Newgate the Whitebeard were truly strong, and that Whitebeard had not had a single scar on his back until he was killed in the war. Only a true warrior can do that. And Odin's hatred is because Edward twice caused Odin to fail on the expedition, which is also the only record of two defeats since Odin joined the navy!
But this time, it won't be Odin who fights Whitebeard, because there are stronger opponents waiting for Whitebeard. So Odin felt very relaxed. Although this time, Odin needs to face Marko, the first son of Whitebeard, but Odin knows that the current Marco is not his opponent at all, although he heard that Marco has already obtained the Devil Fruit. However, in terms of domineering, Marco is definitely not as strong as Odin. Odin was convinced of this.
After more than ten days of sailing, Odin followed the Warring States to the famous island of the Seven Waters Capital in the first half of the Great Voyage!
As the largest shipbuilding base in the first half of the Great Voyage, the City of Seven Waters can be said to be a must-stop for all pirates who yearn for the New World! Because no matter which sea the four seas came to the Great Voyage, the ships on which the pirates were riding had basically reached their limits, and there was no way to continue sailing, and the climate of the New World was not at all comparable to the climate of the first half of the Great Voyage. The pirates all need more powerful ships to continue their adventures, which makes the City of the Seven Waters a must-choose location for the pirates to change ships.
After Odin came to the capital of the seven waters, he followed the Warring States to disembark and came to the naval base of the capital of the seven waters! They'll rest here for the rest of the day and determine the exact location of the Whitebeard Pirates!
After Odin arrived at the base, he followed Sengoku directly to the commander's office. Here, Odin simply took the commander of the naval base in the capital of the seven waters, Lieutenant General Goode!
"Goode! How have you been doing? The City of Seven Waters is a must-go for pirates, so you must be busy here, right? After the Warring States saw Lieutenant General Goode, they greeted Lieutenant General Goode very casually.
"Hahahahaha, Warring States Monarch, I am a quiet place, although there are many pirates, this is also one of the important sources of wealth for the world government, and the government will not allow us to make a big move on the island, so I don't have a few chances to make a move!" Lieutenant General Gude was also very excited when he saw the arrival of the Warring States.
Vice Admiral Goode and Sengoku were both friends who joined the Navy at the same time, although Sengoku was later transferred to the New World and was quickly promoted. But as a Lieutenant General Gude who followed the Warring States period is not a weak person, Lieutenant General Gude is a superhuman Devil Fruit-Meat Ball Fruit ability!
Odin watched the friendly chat between Sengoku and Goode, and also felt that Sengoku could later become a general or even a naval marshal, not just with the support of Marshal Air and the five old stars of the world government.
Although there is no such person as Lieutenant General Goode in later animes, and the meat ball fruit has also become the fruit ability of His Majesty Shichimukai Basolomy ● Bear. It can be seen that this Lieutenant General Gude must have died in a certain battle. However, just what Odin has seen in the past few months, Sengoku is basically friends with every lieutenant admiral and rear admiral-level officer in the Navy Headquarters or a comrade-in-arms of the Warring States at the same time. It can be said that after several years of development, Marshal Snow and Marshal Air have turned the navy into a hall of their own faction. However, Sengoku is the most formidable contender for the next generation of naval marshals, and the other person is Odin's teacher Zefa! However, there is no way to compare with Sengoku in terms of how to deal with people.
Sengoku chatted with Lieutenant General Gude for a while, and Lieutenant General Gude saw Odin, who had been standing there quietly since Sengoku came in, and asked curiously: "Sengoku, don't you want to introduce the young man behind you?" ”
"Hahaha, I forgot to introduce to you, this kid's name is Odin, and he is a proud disciple of the law, don't underestimate this kid, he is a strong man who can fight Karp for hours without defeat! Now a commodore of the Navy Headquarters! Sengoku said proudly.
"Oh? A disciple of the Dharma? Already a brigadier general? How old is he? "Goode heard Sengoku's introduction, and he also became interested in Odin.
"Report Lieutenant General Good, I'm Odin D Orff! Commodore Admiral! Odin saw Sengoku signaling himself to speak, and also stepped forward to salute and report.
"Hahaha, Odin, your teacher is a friend of mine at the same time! You don't have to be so far out of me. Besides, with the combat power you can fight Karp's old mad dog for hours, I might not be your match yet! Lieutenant General Goode also looked at Odin and said with a smile.
"Where, I am still a junior, and I still need to learn from the lieutenant generals and teachers of the Warring States period, for a famous general like you, I am a child. You are so modest! Odin heard Lieutenant General Good's words and quickly said modestly.
"Haha, you two won't flatter each other anymore. Let's get down to business, Good, you know what we're here for, can you now determine the location of Edward Newgate with Whitebeard? Sengoku looked at Gude and said seriously.
"The location of the Whitebeard Pirates has been locked, just off the Shipwreck Island in the Capital of the Seven Waters. We've had people watching the Whitebeard Pirates all day. But Sengoku, there's a new trouble now, and I don't think you should go after Whitebeard now! Lieutenant General Goode also said with rare seriousness.
"Oh? Looking at the way you are embarrassed, has the situation changed? "Sengoku knows what Vice Admiral Goode is like, and it can be said that he is the second madman in the navy besides Karp! What can make him feel tricky must not be a simple problem!
"Sengoku, something new happened yesterday, another pirate group has landed in the capital of the seven waters! I've already checked with someone to confirm what our monitors are reporting! ”
"Oh? It looks like this pirate group must be very powerful! Otherwise, you can't be so cautious! "When Sengoku saw Goode's expression, he also knew that he must be a sea thief.
"That's right, this pirate group is also your old acquaintance, the flying pirates that Zefa has been hunting! Golden Lion Shiki! Lieutenant General Goode said a name solemnly!
