Chapter 32: Ekie's Plan

Just when Odin and Kaido were fighting in the New World, in the East China Sea, Karp had already joined the New World Navy who came to support him in Rogue Town! Because many pirates are now blocked in the first half of the Four Seas and the Great Route, there is no way to go to the New World on a large scale, so the situation in the Four Seas is quite chaotic, even in the East China Sea, the weakest sea, the number of pirates is nearly 50,000 according to incomplete statistics! And that's not counting those who have just gone to sea! After all, the East China Sea is the hometown of One Piece!

"Hahahaha, how do you little guys feel when you come to the East China Sea from the New World? Did you get into any trouble? Karp said with a loud laugh as he looked at the several vice admirals of the Admiral Headquarters in front of him in the commander's office in Rogue Town.

"Mr. Karp, we didn't encounter any trouble when we came, but we came here and captured a lot of pirates, and we didn't think anything of it in the New World before, but after we came, we realized that there were a lot of pirates in the first half of the Great Voyage!" Kuzan said with a grin.

The other lieutenant generals didn't speak, Sakasky because he was not good at words, Ekie because he was still relatively young, and Dauberman and Huoshan looked at Karp with a smile, all of them belonged to the kind of people who didn't talk much.

"Hahaha, that's why Odin Kid let you come back! This time, the headquarters decided to completely cleanse the pirates of the East China Sea! Truly turn the East China Sea into the most peaceful sea area! Do you guys have any plans? What the hell are we going to do this time? Karp looked at the few people sitting here and was very satisfied, this can be said to be the strongest people in the new generation of the Navy. Two natural departments, one superhuman department, and two proficient in naval six styles and armed color domineering. There is basically no suspense for such a powerful force to deal with these rookie pirates in the East China Sea, but now I just don't know what to do! When it comes to stratagem, Karp is really not very good at it! After all, what a waste of brainpower!

Several lieutenant generals did not speak, but thought about themselves! In fact, everyone in the pirate world really doesn't care much about things that take their brains, and what they believe here is that everything speaks with strength! Otherwise, Sengoku and Crane would not have been called "wise generals" and became naval staff officers. "Mr. Karp, may I give me my opinion?" Seeing that no one spoke, Lieutenant General Ekie Havel took the initiative to speak.

Hearing Ekie's words, everyone looked up at the young junior. Lieutenant General Ekie is a student of Zefa, formerly Zefa's assistant, who was poached by Odin from Zefa and brought to the New World to be vigorously cultivated. In two years, he was promoted from rear admiral to vice admiral in the Navy Headquarters! It can be seen that Odin loves him! Hearing him speak, several lieutenant generals didn't care about his low seniority, after all, behind him stood the former general Zefa and the current general Odin.

"Oh? Kid Ekie, what do you have to say? Karp asked curiously when he saw Ekie speak.

"Mr. Karp, seniors, we all know that it is very difficult to really encircle and annihilate the enemy on the sea! After all, the sea is too vast! No matter how tight the defense is, there will be holes. And our navy simply does not have so many forces to encircle the entire East China Sea! Therefore, the method of encirclement and annihilation is not advisable at all! Ekie said this, looked at the faces of several people around him, and found that everyone did not mean to refute, but made a gesture of listening, so Lieutenant General Ekie boldly continued: "So I think that even if we have 100,000 elites transferred back from the New World this time, there is no way to capture all the East China Sea pirates!" So can we take the southern part of the East China Sea and line up our forces to carry out a dragnet clearance? We all know that in the north of the East China Sea is the vast windless zone, where is the nest of the sea kings, even if our navy enters the danger of total annihilation, every year a large number of pirates run into the windless zone and are eaten by the sea kings! So I think it would be better if we drove all those pirates into the windless zone and let those sea kings in the windless zone help us destroy those pirates? ”

Hearing Ike's words, several people present raised their heads and looked at Ikey in shock, not that Ikey said it badly, but that several lieutenant generals who were doing it felt that this Ikey said it was too good! It's a genius idea to drive all the pirates to the windless zone, and let the windless bring those sea kings to help destroy the pirates. However, there are also those who have raised different voices.

"Lieutenant General Ekie, you're in a good position. But have you thought about it, what if there are pirates who break through the windless zone? By that time, they will be in the first half of the Great Voyage! Contact more pirates, contact stronger power, then the strength of these rookie pirates may be stronger! Aren't we going to pay more casualties in the first half of the Great Voyage to clean them up? Sakasky, who hadn't spoken since he sat there, spoke up to Ekie.

Originally, everyone thought that Ekhi's method was the best way, but after hearing Sakasky's words, several people fell into deep thought again. After all, if the pirates have been sailing all over the world, then most of the pirates will not have much growth in strength except for those who are particularly talented pirates! After all, the four seas don't have a domineering saying at all, and for those with Devil Fruit abilities, in the Four Seas, it is a monster-like existence, but in the Great Route, Devil Fruit Abilities are not an uncommon thing, and the Four Seas have no way to develop fruit abilities, but there are great routes! Even in the first half of the Great Voyage Paradise, many people knew about domineering and Devil Fruit abilities, once those pirates who arrived at the Great Voyage from all over the world got the cultivation method of fruit ability development and domineering, it would bring even more trouble to the navy's clearance!

"Lieutenant Admiral Sakaski, I have also considered your question before, for those pirates who are able to cross the windless zone alone, even if they enter the great voyage, we will only take a little time! After all, the time for our operation to clean up the four seas this time is very short, can it be that those people can learn to be domineering in a short period of time and develop the Devil Fruit ability to a very high level? Besides, if we don't do this, we 100,000 people alone will not be able to completely clean up the East China Sea! Once those pirates evade our crackdown, then after we leave, with the garrison in the East China Sea, there will be no way to capture them! There is no point in this clean-up operation that we have spent so much! Instead of getting angry at Sakasky's rebuttal, Ekie said calmly.
