Chapter 81: Preparing to Go
Marin Fando, a new batch of soldiers has been ushered in on the empty training ground.
“...... Speaking of which, disband! As is customary, Zefa stood on a high place after lecturing the recruits and watched their departing backs.
"Alas! Now that the quality of recruits is getting worse and worse, is that Roger guy's treasure so appealing? After observing for a while, Zefa sighed, helpless about this situation.
"Huh? The imp was kind of funny, and it seemed to be called Virgo. Before leaving, Zefa suddenly saw a young man with a physique and spirit that was different from that of the other recruits. However, there are not a few people in the navy who "lead art engineers", so Zefa didn't pay too much attention to it, but secretly wrote down this young man, planning to observe it slowly in the future.

Chambord Islands
After several days of fighting, the pirates who tried to break through the naval base of Chambord were all repulsed, and Chambord finally ushered in the long-lost peace.
"Then again, Ray, I've always wondered why there are no other reinforcements, these pirates are making trouble so close to the Navy Headquarters, and the Headquarters is actually not responding!?" Smoker, who had shined in this battle, leaned against the wall and asked Ray.
"Because it's enough for me and Kuzan here. It's the time of the World Government Conference, and the surplus troops are on duty, and we won't be staying here for long, and we will soon be on our way to the New World. Ray replied as he packed his bags.
Not long ago, Ray officially completed the handover with the pheasant, and left for the New World after sorting out everything. In addition, because of the danger of the new world, Lei also entrusted the battle peach pill to the pheasant, giving him the opportunity to send it to the yellow ape.
During this time, Xiaoyu, who went out to visit relatives, finally returned. Although Ray didn't know what was going on with her, he was relieved to see the smile on her face brighter than ever, and didn't ask more.
As for Evan, he, as the base's lieutenant, needs to stay in the Chambord Islands to assist the pheasants. Since Pheasant is a more irresponsible guy than Ray, he was busy in the following days.
With Ray's help, Caterina and William finally succeeded in developing a weapon that could change the weather, and although it was still weak, it would be able to really play a role in actual combat sooner or later. But because of this, the two of them, like Evan, could not follow Ray to the New World, and even out of the psychology of protecting technical talents, Sengoku also ordered them to return to Marin Fando.
As a result, the only men who could follow Ray were Owen, Xiaoyu, Darwin, Smoker, Tina, Sesame, and the soldiers of the original army under his command.
"It's finally sorted out, and the next thing you need to do is wait for the end of the world government meeting, and wait until the route is fully lifted before you can leave." After packing his luggage, Ray patted the dust on his hands and said.
"Cut, I don't know what this bullshit world government meeting is talking about, it takes a lot of trouble every time, and the navy on duty doesn't know how many pirates they can catch in so much time!" Smoker said angrily.
As a person who first saw Gore J. Instead of becoming a pirate, Smoker, the young man in D. Roger's execution scene, strengthened his belief in becoming a navy. He was well aware of the impact of Roger's dying words on the world, and they were destined to change the world.
Because of those words, Smoker formed an obsession with pirates, and unlike Ray and Akainu's extermination, he was more inclined to arrest all pirates, so he was dissatisfied with the World Government's waste of troops.
Listening to Smoker's complaints, Ray didn't say a word, just patted him on the shoulder, and then left the room to go to Pheasant's office.
......
North Sea, the base of the Don Quixote family.
As the overlords of the dark side of the North Sea, the Don Quixote family is lawless here. Cruelty, ruthlessness, none of which can describe what they do. Surprisingly, however, the members of this group are extremely loyal to the organization and take pride in working for Doflamingo.
In a large hall, all the members of the Don Quixote family were present, except for Virgo. The family that held control of the underground trading in the North Sea was as rich as the nation could see from the splendid hall, but at this time, no one had the heart to appreciate it, just because of the man who roared in front of them.
"Who the hell is it! Who the hell killed Diamanti! Doflamingo yelled. Because of Diamanti's death, he appeared manic and angrily walked around the round table of the conference.
When Doflamingo was angry, only four of the top officials in the entire family dared to answer Doflamingo's words, and only two of them were present at the meeting, but Pika did not like to speak, so Torrepol stood up to answer.
"We don't know yet, our intelligence system has been slow since Virgo went on a mission, and now only a few suspects have been identified." Torrebol, codenamed Plum Blossom, said with a document in his hand, the snot hanging under his nose almost touching the paper.
"Whoever killed me will taste regret." Doflamingo gritted his teeth, the pink feather coat behind him shaking with rage.
"Diamanti's loss of news coincided with the time when the local navy was cleaning up pirates, and after that, the slave trade in the Chambord Islands quietly disappeared, so the local navy was the most suspicious. In addition, the Red-Haired Pirates have been seen landing on the island during that time and engaging in a battle with Colonel Ray, whose aftermath caused the sinking of Island One. Torrebol read word for word from the information on the information document.
"Island One? Isn't our auction built there? So it's either the Ray or the redhead. After determining the scope of the suspect, Doflamingo calmly frightened, and then fell into deep thought.
The conference hall was silent, and in such an atmosphere, the family members who attended the meeting couldn't help but reduce the sound of breathing, for fear of affecting the young master's thinking.
"Torrebol, you stay here to temporarily preside over the family's affairs in the North Sea, and the members of the Special Ability Team are also left to you; Pika, bring the supplies for the Assault Force and the Fighting Legion to sail, and I'll take you out the enemy myself. After thinking for a long time, Doflamingo said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" Faced with the order, Pika and Torrebol replied dryly.
"However, young master, this expedition is probably not just about revenge! Won't you wait for Virgo to gain a foothold in the new world? Torrebol asked hesitantly.
This question made all the cadres come to their senses, and they looked at Doflamingo intently, waiting for his answer.
Facing the gaze of his subordinates, Doflamingo did not answer immediately, and paused for a while before sneering:
"It's time for the world to see blood!"
