Navy headquarters, Shanks is also a little confused at the moment.

Because there is a unit in the Navy called SWORD, which he really doesn't know.

Based on his understanding of Sean during this time, although Sean is very good at scheming, his strategies are basically biased towards Yang conspiracy.

What does that mean?

It means that what he says is basically the truth!

This has been proven countless times.

It is precisely because of this that Sean's strategy is so hot every time.

Based on this, Shanks can basically determine that this SWORD force does exist, and there is a deep cooperation between the SWORD force and Dorag.

And these...

It's all that Dorag hadn't told himself before!

Therefore, Shanks did not directly ask Dorag about this, but called Sengoku.

"SWORD TROOPS, ALAS... This force does exist, but it is not subordinate to the Navy Headquarters, but more like a mercenary relationship. ”

"Actually, I prefer to call them naval mercenaries."

"The original intention of the SWORD force is to avoid the situation where those who are strong or have strong talent and potential are disappointed in the navy and defect and eventually stand on the opposite side of the navy."

"At the beginning, under the consultation of me, Tsuru and Karp, it was decided to establish a unit that belonged to the navy but did not belong to the navy, and the first commander of the unit was Karp!"

"In this way, if there is a good or potential sailor, and wants to break away because of disappointment with the navy, Karp will step in and bring people into the SWORD force."

"In this unit, they don't need to follow all the rules of the navy, they can act freely according to the justice in their hearts, and the navy only provides them with some intelligence support."

"Of course, on the bright side, all the people who have entered the SWORD unit have all left through the regular procedures, and all the information about their former positions in the Navy has been sealed."

Hearing this, Shanks nodded slightly, somewhat understanding the reason for the birth of the SWORD unit.

After all, most sailors are full of enthusiasm and justice before joining the navy, but after actually joining, they will find that the navy is completely different from what they think.

In the process, they usually have three outcomes.

First, become the person you ever hated the most!

Second, start to mess up and let it go.

Thirdly, defection from the Navy!

The SWORD unit was created for this third group of people, so to speak.

After all, defections to the Navy have happened many times over the years.

The most famous ones are Dorag and the pheasant.

These two people, now one is at the level of a general, and the other is at the level of the Four Emperors.

If there is no defection, the strength of the navy will definitely increase dramatically.

So, the SWORD unit was born!

Don't you look down on the Navy's approach?

Then join the SWORD force, where you will not be held back by the rules of the Navy or the World Government, and you can act freely according to the justice of your heart!

Even...

The Navy will also give you some intelligence support.

In that case, there is no need for you to leave the navy, right?

In response to the words of the Warring States, they are both navy but not navy, perhaps to use the title of naval mercenary...

More appropriate!

"Then according to what you said, the commander of the SWORD force is Karp, and Karp is now under Sean, and the whole thing in Beihai is basically directed and acted by Sean?"

Shanks said with an ugly face.

It's no wonder he thinks so, after all, what he and Dorag discussed was only to sack the kingdom of Goa, and the bayonet troops actually did much more than loot, and even made them, the former sea pirates, a little unbearable.

But if it was Sean who took control of the SWORD forces, and then directed and acted in a play on his own, using their plan to pit themselves...

It makes sense.

However, this was clearly his overthinking.

"Probably not!"

"How do you know?"

"Because after staring at the war, especially after Pheasant joined the SWORD force as the deputy commander, we lost control of the SWORD force, even Karp..."

"Out of control?"

"That's right, it should be about a month after Pheasant joined the SWORD force, and our contact with him was completely cut off."

"So, it's true that Sean said that the SWORD forces were in collusion with Dorag?"

"I don't know, but the X Drake mentioned by Sean is indeed the captain of the SWORD force, that is, the second-in-command, second only to the pheasant."

Shanks nodded.

After going around in a circle, I returned to the starting point.

It's still the same answer!

The SWORD forces are deeply entangled with Dorag, and the whole incident should not be so out of control because of Sean's attack.

Merely...

Dorag shouldn't be so stupid to order the bayonet troops to do those things in the kingdom of Goya.

If you think about it this way, is it...

The SWORD troops did it on purpose?

After thinking about it, Shanks had a toothache.

There's some trouble with this!

"Shanks, tell me honestly, what happened in the Kingdom of Goya can't really be what Sean said, right?"

"Yes and no!"

"What do you mean by that?"

Sengoku frowned.

Yes yes, no yes no, what is yes and no?

"It means that Dorag and I really want to raise funds, but we didn't think about going to that extent, according to the original plan, it should just be a raid on the kingdom of Goa, and then loot the assets of the royal family, nobles and the rich."

"After all, we are not stupid, what good will it do us if we make the kingdom of Goya a hell on earth?"

"As for the SWORD troops, I just found out, and Dorag never told me!"

So far, Shanks has nothing to hide, and said directly.

After all, Sengoku is a smart person, and he also knows the method of Sean Yiguan, that is...

Use the truth to fight each other!

After all, there is a risk of being debunked if the facts are fabricated, and once they are exposed, they will never recover.

Therefore, the most useful means is never to fabricate facts, but to the facts themselves.

Based on this, even if he denied it, Sengoku would not believe it.

Naturally, there is no need to hide it.

Now the only problem is...

What exactly do the people of the SWORD force want to do?

This question kept going back and forth in Shanks's mind, but he couldn't come up with a decent answer for a while!

Blu Blu Blu...

At this time, the phone bug on Shanks' desk suddenly rang.

"I'm Shanks!"

"This is the Five Old Stars, Shanks, what are we looking for you, you should know, right?"

"You know, the things of the Goya Kingdom are right, right?"

"Hmph, I hope you can give us a reasonable explanation!"

"Explain... All I can say is that the bayonet troops have nothing to do with me, they will do such a thing, and I am completely unaware of it! ”
