The gathering of the four emperors in one place is definitely a major event that the sea has never heard of, and this gathered force has the power to destroy the world, and it cannot be ignored.

As the initiator of this gathering, Fang Xing has undoubtedly entered the sight of many forces in the world. Unlike in the past, it was propaganda carried out by the Navy for the purpose of propaganda and control of public opinion, and it was not a strong force displayed by strength, but a powerful influence. No matter how Fang Xing gathered the Four Emperors, this alone was enough to make it impossible to ignore his existence, which meant that there might be a force to shake the world, and even the world government would have to reconsider its previous approach.

At the headquarters of the Navy, people above the rank of vice admiral were gathered to discuss the matter.

“.. The four emperors acted at the same time, and this was already a situation that the navy could not stop,... Let the sent fleet be sent back and build a surveillance network. The Sengoku led by him expressed his opinion.

As a marshal, he undoubtedly played a crucial role in the views he put forward at the meeting, and he can be said to be the weather vane of the navy.

"I agree.." Some veteran vice admirals also expressed their views in agreement with this point.

"I'm against it."

It was none other than Vice Admiral Tsuru, who had almost the same influence in the navy as the marshal of the Warring States period. The voice was not loud, but it silenced the vice admiral who had just said his opinion in agreement.

Karp was sitting in his seat, he had been silent, not making any comments, but what Tsuru said made him turn his head.

"Tsuru... Lieutenant General, say what you think. Sengoku said that he was a little surprised that Tsuru would go against him, and even though Tsuru disagreed with him on many things, he always thought that Tsuru would support his point of view in this matter. In her previous actions, Tsuru had always aimed to preserve the navy's vital forces, and she should have known that the navy did not have the capital to contend with the four emperors at the same time.

"I'm more inclined to attack than to defend passively." Tsuru said, "In this matter, although it is clear that the wanted criminal... The reason why Fang Xing gathered the Four Emperors, but you can't know what they are going to do when they gather them? If this is a gathering with the aim of turning the world upside down, it would be a dereliction of duty for the Navy to let it take place. ”

"It's impossible for you to know this possibility, every Four Emperors is a ruthless character who fights out of the pirates, even the current captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, Ace, has grown up to become a threat in such a short period of time. None of them will submit to anyone, and the historical text that has fallen into their hands is better than the bait that the navy has released to cause internal strife, and it is impossible for them to cooperate. ”

"This possibility. . . Even if only in case... I'm not going to let it go. Tsuru said firmly.

"But what can you do? The existing strength of the navy simply cannot stop the Four Emperors who have already acted. Sengoku said that this was the biggest reason why he made that proposal.

The navy is indeed the most powerful organization in the sea, stronger than any pirate group. However, the navy had to maintain peace in the sea, and its vital forces were able to defeat one of the Four Emperor Pirates, and it was able to compete with two Four Emperor Pirates, but it could not compete with the third Four Emperor Pirates, which was the result of Sengoku's estimate. If he forcibly confronts it, the losses it will bring are unacceptable to him.

"If you can't compete with four, then fight one." Tsuru said. "This happens to be a temptation, if this is a matter that has nothing to do with the cooperation of the Four Emperors, then the other forces will not only not choose to support, but will be happy with the Navy's behavior, and even more so, they will fall into the ground."

"It's a good idea." Sengoku fell silent, and he agreed with Tsuru's suggestion, "But who will carry out this plan?" ”

Because of his disobedience to the orders of the World Government, he sent Young, Peach Rabbit, and Tea Dolphin to deal with the possible plan in the East China Sea. And the yellow ape also maintains order in the great voyage, and now the navy has only the combat power of the rank of a general.

However, this is exactly the person he did not want to choose, Sakasky's actions were too extreme, and he did not want Sakasky to carry out the mission at a time when the navy still needed to maintain a balance at sea and could not go to war with the Four Emperors. Especially the death of the Draconians that happened some time ago, in the news, the prisoner has been killed by the Akainu general Sakasky, but the result reported by Sakasky is that the prisoner escaped, and in order to stabilize the Draconian, he deliberately conveyed false information. It was here that Sengoku conceived the plan that Sakasky was going to implement.

"General Sakasky .. is a suitable person. Tsuru said.

Sengoku's face furrowed, but he was not surprised by this result. He looked at the crane, and the expression on his face was actually asking the crane why, why did he cooperate with Sakasky?

The expression on Tsuru's face did not change, and she looked at Sengoku calmly.

"Sakaski's words are not appropriate, the naval headquarters must have a naval admiral in charge, and now this Marin Vando is only in charge of one admiral. How about considering a replacement with several vice admirals? The purpose is not to defeat, but only to drag, and it should be done by a few lieutenant generals, the ghost spider, the flying squirrel, the Dauberman, and the burning mountain are up to the four of you to act. ”

"Yes!"

In the face of such a dangerous task, these four vice admirals did not hesitate at all, and they all directly accepted this task. Among the vice admirals, they are also the best among them, both in terms of combat and strategy.

"Nope." Tsuru retorted, "If you want to stop the pirates of the Four Emperors, even if it is just one of them, the combat power of the general level is also necessary, the three generals in the navy, the yellow ape and the young child, are on separate missions, and now only the red dog is left, and he is the only one who can choose the candidate." ”

When Tsuru said this, he did not add military ranks after the three generals. Her military rank is lieutenant general, and according to the navy's system of clear hierarchy between superiors and subordinates, subordinates must add military ranks to their superiors. Moreover, after the Warring States arranged the task, she retorted unceremoniously, which not only did not give the Warring States face, but also embarrassed the faces of the ghost spider, flying squirrel, Dauberman and Fire Mountain.

It's just that no one dares to give an opinion on these, just because she is a crane .. She is the chief staff officer of the navy, and she is the navy of the same generation as Sengoku and Karp.

"If that's the case, Karp. . . I believe that with his strength, he can stop it. Sengoku said again.

Karp was still sitting in his original position, like a statue, neither refuting nor accepting.

Karp's words don't work, this horrific party was organized by his grandson. You should know that in such a major event, it is not possible to appoint people who have close relationships. ”

Crane's statement is undoubtedly excessive, although her status in the navy is very high, but Karp is not low, as a naval hero, Karp has countless naval worship.

Suddenly, a rebuttal was raised.

"Lieutenant General Karp wouldn't do such a thing!"

"Lieutenant General Tsuru, please retract what you just said."

Tsuru was neither angry nor apologising. She said coldly, "Karp... Lieutenant General, what do you think of yourself? ”

Karp squinted, and he said, "I'm really not fit for this mission. ”

Sakaski, who had been silent, suddenly said at this time: "I believe that Vice Admiral Karp will not abandon justice just because he is his grandson, but the rules of the Navy should not be arbitrarily changed, this is a matter of justice." Vice Admiral Karp's strength is obvious to all, and if he stays at the Navy Headquarters, he can also make up for the combat strength of my absence, and there is no need to worry about a young man attacking the Navy Headquarters. ”

Sakasky is smart, and this sentence has two meanings. The first meaning is to let Karp stay in the Navy Headquarters, since Sengoku just revealed that Karp can resist the Four Emperors, it is actually to say that he has a strength comparable to that of an admiral, and at this time, it seems logical to put forward the reason for Karp to stay in place of him. The second meaning is that he supports the Crane's point of view, originally Tsuru, as a general staff officer, has many people to support the decision-making in the navy, and since the opinions she put forward are not refuted, it is just a matter of candidates, and at this time, Sakasky's statement will make many hesitant navies support him in disguise.

After Sakasky finished speaking, Sengoku felt the atmosphere of the meeting, he knew that this proposal would be difficult for him to veto, it was indeed beneficial to the navy, although he could suppress this proposal by virtue of his status as a marshal, but he couldn't!

During the meeting, Sengoku sighed in front of everyone, and many navies were slightly surprised, they clearly sensed the helplessness of the Sengoku Marshal.

"Vice Admiral Tsuru, who do you think would be more appropriate for the Navy to stop?" Sengoku asked.

"Redhead." Tsuru said. "According to the information arranged among the Four Emperors, two of them showed a friendly relationship with Fang Xing, the red-haired pirates, and the whitebeard pirates. And the most tricky of them is undoubtedly the red-haired pirates, because the Whitebeard Pirates have lost their relationship with Whitebeard, their influence and strength at the moment are not as strong as they imagined. And the other two Four Emperors, whether they are the Hundred Beast Pirates or the BIGMOM Pirates, have a hostile attitude towards Fang Xing, in this party, if the balance of the party is lost, it will undoubtedly be able to destroy this banquet, and even let the pirates have a conflict on their own. ”

"That being the case... It's up to you, Sakasky, to pick the right people from the Navy Headquarters and stop the red-haired pirates before they reach their destination. Sengoku commanded, "Remember, it's a block!" And not annihilation! I don't want you to act on your own. ”

"Yes!" Sakasky replied coldly, his tone disgruntled, and he left the conference hall abruptly.

Sengoku had a black line on his face, and he suppressed his anger, "Then the meeting is over!" ”

After the meeting, the hall quickly disbanded, but there were three people who did not leave, Karp, Sengoku, and Tsuru.

They were the same as they had been in naval training in the previous years, but all three remained silent.

"What are you going to do?" Sengoku broke the atmosphere and asked Xiang Tsuru first.

"I'm just doing what I have to do." Tsuru said.

"What is the right thing to do,... Do you think I can't see your collaboration with Sakaski? Sengoku's voice raised slightly, not loud in this empty conference hall, but harsh.

"I said I'm just doing what I'm supposed to do." The crane was not convinced.

"You know, Karp isn't that kind of person, but you're..." War Chinese Cypriot.

"She's not wrong, the Navy does have such a rule." Karp defended the crane.

There is such a rule, but almost no one has ever raised it. With their friendship, Tsuru used this rule to question Karp, and Sengoku was completely unable to understand Tsuru's thoughts. If you want Sakasky to carry out this mission, you don't necessarily need to do this, but Tsuru just chose this path.

"..."Tsuru was silent about what Sengoku said. Karp's defense made her face darker. "I don't have much to say about that. All I can say is that this is the best outcome. ”

“.. Although what you just said sounds like you are not wrong, Hu Ah, who has formed a surveillance network outside the navy, can completely rely on the movements of the Four Emperors to get new dynamics, which can also act in response to the situation, and there is no difference between the ending of the two, and acting rashly is likely to change the originally stable ending. You are a person who seeks stability, and this time you have chosen to take risks. ”

Sengoku is worthy of being a wise general, and he directly analyzed the defects that existed, although the analysis of Tsuru just now was reasonable, but it was exactly as he said.

"As I said, I'd rather take the initiative than accept change. You say I'm a person who pursues stability? ”

"Isn't it?" Sengoku asked rhetorically. "We've always been looking for balance in the sea, and that's exactly what you're proposing. Only by looking for opportunities in the balance can we end this era of pirates with minimal loss. ”

This era of pirates has already made this world tattered. It's like a wooden bucket that has water broken open, and if you want to repair it, the water will spill out. And the practice of Sengoku and Tsuru is to keep the water from spilling while pursuing as much stability as possible.

This time, Tsuru didn't answer Sengoku's words, and she walked out of the sight of the two.

Sakasky was standing outside the chamber, and Crane raised his eyes to look at him, "Your justice. . . What is it? ”

"It's simple." Sakasky had little hesitation on the subject, saying, "Erasing pirates from this era, no matter what the cost, is my justice." ”

"No matter what the cost? Real and distorted justice. Tsuru expressed his opinion.

"Justice that can be won is justice." Sakasky said. "You and the marshal have been so cowardly that the Pirate Age has lasted so long now."

Tsuru didn't say anything more, and she left the place straight. Sakasky also left, but he was preparing the plan.
