The raindrops crackled and fell, hitting the floating bubbles, forming a curtain of water.

The Chambord Islands are white, like a continuous curtain of water sprinkled with a scoop of water. The Chambord archipelago island group is made up of the roots of the mangrove tree of Alchi, and its greatest feature is the special climatic area in which it is formed, and the resin in the air blocks the condensation of clouds, which is generally impossible to produce such rain.

The wind and rain made the sea undulating, and on the warship, Sengoku stood under such a rain curtain, and the rain washed over him, but he didn't react like a puppet.

"Sengoku Marshal! Please take shelter from the rain in the cabin! One of the navies shouted in the rain, his voice muffled in the rain.

However, Sengoku didn't respond to him, just stood on the bow of the ship in a daze, and stood firmly on the rocking warship, not knowing what to think.

At this time, the crane was holding an umbrella, the umbrella that should have swayed in the wind and rain, but it was firmly held in her hand, she walked over step by step, and said softly: "You are all a lot old, and you still do the stupid things you used to do?"

Through the rain curtain, the voice struck the ears of the Warring States with great force.

Sengoku silently turned back, the dark rainy day looked gloomy, and the visibility of the white rain was also very low, and Sengoku saw the crane through the afterglow of the searchlight of the warship's rotation once every few seconds. Her reproachful tone reminded him of the time when the navy was bloody in the rain in the same period in the past, but time passed, and now he is over seventy years old, even if he is strong, he may be weak in the face of sudden illness, he knows this very well, and he will not do such a stupid thing in the past.

"Such rain... Perhaps it is guilty. "The Warring States are heavy, and the voice responds directly to the crane through the rain curtain.

Tsuru first waved his hand and signaled the navy, which was also raining because he was worried about the Sengoku period, to retreat, and then walked to the side of the Sengoku and divided two-thirds of the umbrellas to cover him, leaving only a small part to cover himself.

"Give an order like that... That's not your style. Tsuru said. Order that the other navies cannot interfere with you, nor can they provide any help to you in the rain, although the rules of the navy are absolute, but this kind of stupid order, I will not carry it out. ”

Accustomed to the tone of his old friend, he said in a deep voice, "How do you think that most of the destroyed islands in the Chambord archipelago can be rebuilt?" ”

"The islands of the Chambord archipelago are actually the roots of the mangrove trees of Alqi, rebuilt... To put it bluntly, it was only made under the condition of destroying the foundation of the Yarki mangrove tree. Tsuru replied. I'm afraid this is also ... In recent years, the Chambord archipelago has always had adverse weather conditions, and the Arqi mangrove tree... It's already overwhelmed. So what do you think... Is this the rain that represents guilt? ”

"Yes..." The Chinese language was full of sighs and helplessness, ".. Sometimes I can't help but think... Are we doing the right thing or is it wrong? ”

"There are some things that you think about too much." Tsuru mentioned.

"You say this, it's not convincing at all, shouldn't you think about it the most." Warring States said. "Sometimes I want to be like Karp, with my temperament, maybe it would feel better."

"Do you think Karp is really the kind of person who will act freely by his temperament? If he was really like that, he might have defected from the Navy a long time ago. Tsuru sighed, knowing exactly what it would take to keep the peace. Behind the peace is endless destruction and cruelty, a situation made of dark blood.

“... I know. Sengoku responded heavily. That's why I think... Are we right or wrong? ”

Tsuru clearly knew what Sengoku was thinking, and she said coldly: "Living in this world, there will be a lot of responsibilities and constraints, which cannot be avoided. Since there is no way to dodge, responding to it is the best course of action. The so-called revolution ... Isn't it also sabotage? ”

“... Don't talk about that. Sengoku shifted the topic, he didn't want to delve into it, and he could only continue to believe in the idea of protecting peace after sticking to his ideas all his life in the navy.

"It seems that the plan has been known in advance, was it leaked first, or was it guessed by others? Either is not good news. "Sengoku can't help but understand, the first point means that there are traitors in the navy, and the second point means that the enemy is very tricky.

"I think it's the third point." Crane said, "If the enemy had known about our plan in advance, he wouldn't have let that kid wander around the island so leisurely, and he also secretly contacted that guy from Reilly. And if you guess it, then we are facing a situation that is much more than that simple. ”

"It's not easy." Sengoku had a wry smile on his face.

Tsuru ignored him, and continued, "I think there was a problem on the Blackbeard Pirates' side, and the flaws in the plan, as well as the navy sent to destroy the group over there, happened to be the same. This accident is no accident! ”

"Are you saying that someone from the dead Navy has leaked out?" In the Warring States Road, although the vast majority of the navy are iron-blooded men, even in a hard group, there may be weaknesses.

"If so, that's a lot better. But if not... So what is the variable?.. Maybe you really have to pay attention to this pirate group. Tsuru said.

"I've sent the pheasant to the right place, but it seems to have froze in dealing with the matter of laughing, and he hasn't left there yet." Sengoku replied.

Tsuru nodded in understanding, "Anyway, let's talk about these things later, and now we have to resolve this interesting situation first." ”

"Marco, the captain of Whitebeard's first team, fought with Kaido's Drought Jack, and the aftermath killed the Draco? At the same time, there is Ace who disappeared and was auctioned? Anyway, Ace should be in the hands of that guy from Reilly now, this script is not interesting at all. Sengoku retorted.

Tsuru seemed to be a little angry at Sengoku's rebuttal, and slowly removed the umbrella, and Sengoku's clothes, which had been dry and draped, were once again soaked by the rain.

"Am I wrong?" Sengoku asked.

"I hate being refuted." Tsuru replied.

Warring States was slightly stunned, his mood was a little stunned, in line with the mentality that men should accommodate women, but in fact he was a little afraid of cranes, he silently suffered this loss.

After a pause, Tsuru saw that Sengoku didn't talk back, and moved the umbrella again, but this time she was not ready to continue to hold the umbrella with her hands, she said, "Don't you feel ashamed to let a lady hold an umbrella for you?" ”

Sengoku thought to himself, "No. But he handed it over and held it up silently. The strong wrist holds the reinforced umbrella strongly, keeping it steady in the wind and rain.

"Has the person behind the scenes been figured out?" He was referring to the person behind the scenes that Fang Xing had said before, and the person who was trying to plunge the navy into turmoil.

"According to the clues, there are only five people who have that ability... Of those, the only one who couldn't find out his true origin was Tezzolo. ”

"You mean to say... That Tezzolo? Sengoku couldn't help but ask. The matter has been searched by Tsuru, and he is still unaware of it.

"I can't verify it yet, so I didn't report it to you. But according to the current clues, among the five people who have been detected, only Tezzolo... There is no origin, to be precise, the origin is forged by others. ”

"So you think it's him?"

"That's right, only people who have doubts will go out of their way to fake something, and that's how people are." The crane has a deep sense of authenticity.

Sengoku's forehead flashed solemnly, "That's really bad!" That guy, even if he doesn't engage in any strategy, with his current financial resources alone, it is enough to plunge the world into turmoil. ”

Tezzolo, known as the "Golden Emperor", owns nearly 20% of the world's Bailey, and if the concept of this capital is put in another sentence, it means that 20% of the wealth of the world's hundreds of millions of people is concentrated in his hands, and he can completely use this 20% of the capital to suppress the capital, so that the world can fall into turmoil.

"Merchant. Never the trickiest one. Even if he does business again, he just needs to take tough measures when necessary. Crane said coldly, and there was always a feeling of cold and cruelty in his tone.

This tone also made Sengoku tremble, and the people who let the crane remember hang up often end up miserable. Sengoku has never seen anyone who can curry favor with Tsuru, even him, is it Karp, or Zefa... It's all a fiasco. A woman is a vengeful animal, and the crane is the perfect illustration of this.

"The Draco people have already sent personnel to deal with this matter,.. It happened quickly and was not hidden. Sengoku said.

This is a dispensable event, Sengoku thinks so. It sounds paradoxical, but why is it dispensable?

If the Draconians were really that noble and inviolable, then the previous assassination of Mary Joya in the Holy Land was obviously much worse, but the matter was perfectly covered up by the Draconians themselves, because no outsiders knew about it, and the king was also ordered to taboo. However, this time it was different, this time, with the help of people with good intentions, the residents of the Chambord Islands all knew about it, so the Tianlong people "made trouble" with great fanfare. Rather than the inviolable rules, the Draconians want to maintain a lofty posture in the crowd.

"Trouble." Tsuru rarely looked tired, "But solving the trouble is what we have to do." We can't let the other party's plan succeed, all we have to do is block. ”

"Barrier? Barrier.. The man.. But it's not easy at all, he's a guy who doesn't accept softness at all. Sengoku said that the opponent he was talking about was not simple, and the man was Whitebeard, who was known as the strongest man in the world. After hearing the news of Ace, he already had a move because he valued his family.

"But you're the one who made this plan, so you must have confidence." Tsuru said.

"Kaido didn't come here, and the only thing the Navy might really face is the Whitebeard Pirates. And it's because Whitebeard values his crew that I think I can keep him out. Sengoku's tone revealed confidence.

It is precisely because Whitebeard values the crew and regards them as a family that he will come to rescue Ace. But on the other hand, the rest of the crew is also his family, and in a situation where he may fight alone with the navy, is this choice worth it when Ace's news is not clear? At least wait for the news to be clear.

"Kaido?" "It doesn't seem to be unusual, he seems to be deliberately dispersing the fleet, and he is rushing in the direction of Whitebeard's territory, is he going to fight alone?" ”

"Speaking of heads-up, I'm afraid that now, he is the only one who will do this kind of behavior." Sengoku smiled bitterly.

Going to the navy alone, the center of the Four Emperors' forces, in the eyes of others, is a move to find death and be mentally retarded, but Kaido has made such a move more than once, which is completely explaining what it means to not die without dying. But what people can't help but do is that even defeating Kaido can't solve his difficult vitality. Sengoku and Tsuru used to be troubled by this.

"Kaido's move looks like he's preparing to plunder other territories. Is this preparing to plunder Whitebeard's territory? Tsuru wondered. If so, then it is good news for the Navy. But if not, then be careful who he is plundering, and if necessary, the navy needs to intervene to stop it. ”

"Stop a beast... It's hard enough. Sengoku said silently, in his opinion, this move was even more difficult than stopping the strongest man, Whitebeard, because the other party might have a fight to the death with you, "In short, in the current situation, it is already a good thing that he does not participate." Resolving this situation first, and then slowly thinking about other things, is what should be done now. ”

"I heard that you and Sora are discussing and preparing to attack Whitebeard, it looks like this is a good opportunity." Crane nodded suddenly, she straightened her back slightly and bent her spine, and the old woman who seemed to be old and weak in the rain curtain showed her spiritual side uncharacteristically at this moment, like a giant awakened from a deep sleep. Silently, she pointed her finger into the darkness of the rain. Under the searchlight, the dark rain curtain was torn open one by one, and every few seconds it passed by, it was the figure of a huge battleship, through this gap, you could vaguely see the majestic figure standing on the protruding whale bow, naked and draped similar to the navy cloak,

“... Here it comes. Sengoku's tone revealed solemnity, and the next enemy he faced was the whitebeard who was known as the strongest in the world!
