"Colonel Malvern, yes, you are still the colonel I respect, but you may not know that I was born and raised in an orphanage set up by the World Government. That remote place is a full week's flight from the base of the Beihai branch where we are now. ”

"Ever since I remembered, the orphanage's funds have been very tight, so only those children who are cute or liked by the director can have enough to eat, and most of the little ghosts, including me, are often hungry."

"But even so, every morning when it was still dark, we had to go to the yard to weed and do hygiene; Moreover, even if the weather suddenly turns bad, we have to take care of the delicate flowers that the dean raises before we can take care of ourselves...... In fact, a little boy with whom I had a good relationship at the beginning accidentally broke the flower pot while carrying it, and was violently beaten by the director and kicked out of the orphanage. ”

"So, for me, I didn't join the Navy for the sake of justice. Because the superior management of our orphanage is a nearby naval branch; And our dean, who always drinks and eats meat alone, and likes to beat people, is still a retired lieutenant colonel of that branch......"

"The navy is the navy, the world government is the world government, and they never represent any justice and greatness...... These additional contents are just some people's excessively high expectations. And I, I joined the Navy just for this job, for the sake of being able to eat enough food and meat, so I have never had any special illusions, and naturally I will not feel disappointed like you. ”

"Colonel Malvern, you are a good commander and a good sailor, so I sincerely wish you that after you leave the Navy, you will be able to realize your ideals step by step. But my subordinates, I still decided to stay in this ordinary Beihai branch, fight the pirates in a daze, and live my own life ordinarily, if I can finally retire peacefully instead of dying on the battlefield, it would be better. ”

After hearing the sailor's words, several people who were about to stand up also sat down again after a little hesitation...... Yes, they weren't great people like Colonel Malvern, and their purpose in joining the Navy was not so noble, and although their future was affected somewhat, it was better than just defecting out of the Navy.

Colonel Malvern just watched the men silently, while Tezzolo behind him glared at them angrily, as if he was about to burst out at any moment.

But then Colonel Malvern just smiled:

"Thank you for saying so much to me, and thank you for being honest with me at a time like this. Finally, in your capacity as former commanders, I hope that those of you who choose to stay here do not leave this room before dawn. ”

With that, Colonel Marvern strode away, followed by Tezzolo with the sailors who were leaving.

And as he walked out of the door, Colonel Malvern stopped, and he turned back and looked at the people in the room one last time:

"Come on, boys, the next time we meet, maybe we'll be enemies...... I won't release water, hahahaha! ”

After they left, a large number of high-speed sea water appeared and wrapped the conference room in its entirety, like a special water dungeon in the Great Prison of Impelton—although it was hoped that the old subordinates who had chosen to stay would not leave, Colonel Malvern took measures on his own for the sake of safety.

……

"What's that? Colonel Malvern got the ability to be suspected of being a natural aquatic fruit? Also infiltrated the base of the naval branch in the North Sea, taking away a group of sailors and two warships? ”

The next day, Polusalino woke up from the 50-square-meter gorgeous bed in the Leander Palace's home, and before he had time to sigh that the sun was so good today, it was suitable to continue to soak in the pool with the Leander Palace, when he was confused by a phone call from the Warring States Marshal.

Isn't it something I just say about water? This kind of Devil Fruit, which stands on the opposite side of almost all abilities, really exists? And was eaten by Colonel Malvin?

And then he also cosed a general Zefa in the original plot of the pirates? Became the strongest enemy M? The strongest のm?

Without giving Polusalino much time to make up for it and think, the Sengoku Marshal continued on the other end of the phone:

"Although Malven's previous strength can only be said to be so-so, since he has obtained the natural water fruit, then we can no longer ignore his combat effectiveness and destructive power...... I discussed it with the five old stars and the big brother, and finally decided that you would be in charge of hunting him down, and the mission deadline is not for the time being. ”

"No, Marshal of the Warring States, I am also a former subordinate of Colonel Marven, how can I go after him? He took so many sailors with him, so it stands to reason that I should need to cooperate with the investigation at this time, right? ”

"You? Cooperate with the investigation? ”

Even from an unknown distance of many kilometers, Polusalino could hear the dislike in the Marshal's tone, "Think about the amount of allowance you have received this year, and then think about the amount of work you have completed so far, what do you think is the point that Malven kid can't think of, so he will contact you with the idea of doing something and try to take you out of the navy?" ”

"When you say that, it's like...... Seem...... Is that the truth? ”

Porusalino laughed dryly and snorted.

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, I'll give you an hour to come to the old man's office, and there are still some details to communicate with you."

"Ah, wait! Don't be in a hurry! ”

Hearing that the Warring States Marshal was about to hang up the phone, Polusalino immediately stopped, "Warring States Marshal, when you were talking on the phone with the five old stars and the commander-in-chief, didn't you talk about the document I handed in?" Didn't they say something? Even if you don't pass it, you have to let me know. Otherwise, I'm obviously in Mary Joy, thinking about this every day, and even enjoying it...... I mean, I can't devote myself to my work. ”

"Don't come with me, don't you understand what we mean? The old man has to make it clear, right? ”

The marshal of the Warring States on the other end of the phone did not give Porusalino any face, and ruthlessly debunked him.

That's right, the day after the document was submitted, Polusalino actually understood what the bigwigs of the World Government meant—not that he received a secret notice, but with his identity and his past situation, the documents he submitted would inevitably be reviewed by these bigwigs with a higher priority, and no matter what the outcome was, they would inevitably communicate with him in detail.

But this time the situation has become no news, then there must be only one truth, that is, the bigwigs have actually passed Porusalino's document, but they do not intend to make their decision public, but want Polusalino to take the initiative and show his personal will - in this way, once there is a plan gap, then the world government can completely ignore the blame, and even issue a clarification statement, explaining that it has never agreed with Porusalino's idea.

Of course, Polusalino is no ordinary navy soldier to be manipulated, and the five veterans can't really let him take this risk without any reward - in exchange, they give Polusalino a suitable platform to play.

That's right, the so-called mission to hunt down his former superior, Colonel Malvern!

You must know that since the establishment of the Navy, there has never been a mission with "no mission period", and the existence of this kind of mission itself has already hinted at a lot.

- Oops, Colonel Malvern is so cunning that he hasn't been able to catch him for fifty years!

- Oh, Colonel Malvern has been killed, but there is no body left! The evidence is too!

Either way, in exchange, the five elders actually gave Colonel Malvern the authority to dispose of Colonel Polusalino, and in the name of the mission, they also helped him find an opportunity to take the initiative to execute his document.

Of course, just like in the theatrical version of the strongest enemy, the world government and navy have always had the confidence to eat Admiral Shimosawa from beginning to end - the reason why the five old stars are willing to use Colonel Malvern's fate as an exchange of interests with Polusalino actually shows that they not only think that Colonel Malvern's destructiveness is acceptable, but also have the means to restrain the seemingly outrageous natural devil fruit.

"Then I won't go to you, just go to the new world,"

Polusalino suddenly said, "Isn't the information from last night already clear? Whitebeard and the Beasts have already taken action, and although Bigmom is still waiting, the Charlotte family's warships have also begun to assemble......"

"And the last redhead, he and his cadres should be able to arrive at Fish-Man Island tonight......"

“…… Okay, but are you sure you don't need to use the manuscript that the old man wrote for you? Xiaohe also helped to revise it. ”

"Humph! Who do you think I am, this kind of work that takes the momentum in the big scene, I never think I will lose to anyone! ”

……

After explaining the status of himself and others as a reserve of the revolutionary army with Old Man Simon, and roughly telling them about the plan he had in mind, Luo took them to a certain forest on the west coast of Happy Island.

This forest is no different from the rest of the island, except that there is an open clearing in the middle, as if it were artificially created.

Shaki, Peggin, and Bebo looked around in confusion, but Old Man Simon looked at the floor of the clearing with a frown—his instincts told him that there was a secret beneath it.

Indeed, Luo walked to the middle of the clearing, and then pulled open a cloth that covered the ground perfectly, and a metal door was revealed.

I saw Luo insert the key into the door and turn, and the door was opened with a click.

"That's amazing! Is this Brother Luo's own secret base? ”

Bebo shouted excitedly.

"This is Mr. Callas's secret base, and after he and Mr. Long left, this place was left to me to take care of," Rowe said, reminding them, "There are lights in there that are still bright, but the stairs down are steep, so be careful not to fall." ”

The group walked down the stairs under the leadership of Luo.

After walking along the spiral staircase for a while, the front suddenly opened up.

In front of them was a room filled with a myriad of strange machines, a pool full of what appeared to be a culture liquid, flasks, beakers, and measuring cylinders for experiments, and weapons such as axes, guns, and swords, which looked very unusual.

"Mr. Kalas is not only a powerful person, but also a genius inventor, which is why Mr. Long specially found him and invited him to join the revolutionary army."

Luo explained with a smile on his face.

"That's amazing......"

Xia Qi's tone revealed an unconcealed surprise and yearning, he also likes to tinker with machinery and inventions, but the conditions have always been limited - and in fact, in the original plot of the pirates, he is the crew responsible for mechanical repairs in the future heart pirates.

"Okay, let's not waste time, we have a chance to see it in the future. Old man Simon, please take that knife over there, since we are going to fight Arthur, that thing is absolutely essential. ”

There was a sheathed knife in the direction of Luo's finger, and old Simon walked over, picked up the knife, pulled it out, and saw that the sharpened blade appeared in front of him.

"Huh? This knife...... I see, did you add the Hailou Stone?! ”

After all, he is an intelligence businessman, and Simon Sr. can be described as well-informed.

Law nodded, and led the group to a deeper room, and then the creaky staircase continued down, and the light below was dim.

There was a certain smell floating in the air, the smell of sea water.

“…… Is it close to the sea? ”

Bebo asked excitedly and nervously, but no one responded to it.

"I turned on the lights."

As he spoke, Law turned on the switch of the light in his hand.

"Here...... Is it a cave?! ”

The place where the group was now was completely different from the room that looked like a scientific research base just now, a pristine space surrounded by sand and rocks.

"It's a secret cave, and that's what I want you to see!"

The group looked in the direction of Luo's finger, and there was ......

"It's huge!"

Pekin exclaimed.

There was a huge yellow ship, made of metal, floating on the surface of the sea.

"Luo, this ship is not an ordinary ship, is it?"

Old Simon had a look of great interest.

"Well, old man Simon, you're right, this is really not your average ship. This is a gift from Mr. Long to me before! The submarine 'Polar Fish', built by Mr. Kalas himself!!"

"What a strange name......"

But not to mention the name, this thing is truly remarkable - the metal yellow hull exudes an incomparably amazing momentum, and combined with the current hidden cave, even if Polusalino is here, it will feel like seeing a secret weapon of the Navy.

"Let's go inside!"

"Is that okay?! Brother Luo! ”

"Of course, after all, this guy is the secret weapon to defeat Arthur...... Now that he and his younger brothers are in the middle of the town at the temple dedicated to the god of the sea, we will use this to launch a surprise attack! ”

Luo said with a smug expression, and the group followed him into the submarine without knowing why.

"That's amazing......"

Old Man Simon couldn't help but let out a sigh of admiration.

The submarine doesn't just look good – the wheelhouse in the cabin is equipped with ornate joysticks and numerous measuring instruments, giving you the real feeling of being in a real submarine. Bebo and the others also sat in their seats and looked out the window, while happily exclaiming, "That's great."

In addition to admiration, the elder Simon pondered that if the Revolutionary Army could manufacture and use such submarines in large quantities, then the members of the Revolutionary Army would be able to stealthily maneuver into the interior of the Gulf of Marinfando, or directly below the Red Earth Continent......

"Brother Luo, when fighting Arthur, how should such a gorgeous submarine come in handy? It would be fine if they fought at sea, but those guys are right in the middle of the land now......"

Bebo asked worriedly.

Luo Ze mysteriously hooked the corners of his mouth:

"You'll know when the time comes! Sit down! I'm going to start the engine! ”

……

Naval Headquarters Marin Vando.

Although the last group of veterans from the North Sea have not yet arrived here, the veterans of the East China Sea, the South China Sea, the West Sea and the Great Voyage have already formed a formation and begun adaptive training under the arrangement of Major General Fina and others.

"Five hundred and fifty-one ......!"

"Five hundred and fifty-two......!"

"Five hundred...... Fifty-three ......!"

Although he was already sweating profusely and his arms were shaking, Bermel gritted his teeth and continued his push-up movements with great difficulty with his companions around him.

That's right, for these veterans from all over the world who have been discharged and returned, their physical decline is a very important issue - this directly affects not only their will to fight, but also the subsequent physical adjustment of Dr. Vegapunk and the naval scientists, as well as their adaptability to new weapons such as power armor.

Therefore, a series of physical training formulated by General Zefa quickly became the daily routine of these veterans. Push-ups, long-distance running, weight-bearing jumps and other regular events are naturally not to be mentioned, and even the various special events that Polusalino and their Navy elite class experienced at that time were appropriately reduced in intensity and added to the "luxury package".

Of course, basic theory and tactical courses are also essential, after all, these veterans from all over the world with the lowest rank of lieutenant are veterans, and the veteran warbands they form will play the role of grassroots commanders in the expeditionary fleet, rather than simple ordinary soldiers.

"General Zefa, according to your arrangement, the adaptation training is going well, and no one is left behind at the moment!"

In Porusalino's absence, his deputy, Major General Fina, took over his duties with full authority, and although there were people to help, he was also busy enough.

General Zefa listened carefully to the report, he thought about it, and suddenly grinned:

"Announce a half-day break in a while, and then conduct raid training in the evening!"

“…… Be! ”

"Remember to explain to them when the time comes, it was Lieutenant General Polusalino's request~"

“…… Got it! ”

Admiral Zefa nodded with satisfaction, while Major General Fina asked with some hesitation:

"Then again, Senior General Zefa, do you know when Colonel Polusalino will finish his mission? I was worried about affecting his mission, so I didn't contact him......"

"The exact time of the old man is not clear, but the battle of the bastards of Whitebeard will never say that it will end soon...... But don't worry, no matter how dangerous the battlefield is, as long as that boy from Polusalino wants to run, no one can leave him...... Moreover, he is going to be in the limelight this time! ”

……

"Did that bastard show up Kaido?"

In the second half of the New World, the huge Moby Dick, Whitebeard spoke with a newspaper in his hand that was quite small for his size, and his voice was inaudible.

"That's right, Daddy, and Ember and Jack, two of the three disasters have already followed him."

The white-bearded pirate general with two curled beards, the well-known swordsman Foil Bista in the New World said in a deep voice.

"Quinn, the only one who has no trace, is probably tinkering with some new weapon."

The tall Diamond Joz said in a deep voice with his hands around his chest.

"Goo-la-la-la, it looks like it's time!"

The tall figure stood up, Edward Newgate with Whitebeard, known as the strongest man in the world after the death of One Piece Roger, and now he is in the second half of his life.

"It's out! Whitebeard Pirates, go and let Kaido's little imp know that it is not his turn in the new world!! ”

Raising their arms, the most terrifying monsters of the New World are dispatched - on the eve of the navy entering Fish-Man Island, guarding Chambord, and about to patrol the four seas, the monsters of the New World have begun a fierce battle for limited resources and increasingly narrow living space!
