Chapter 548: Greed, Hatred, Ignorance, and Suspicion

"Our navy must also have its own Four Emperors!"

These are the words that Sengoku, as the marshal of the Navy Headquarters, emphasized in planning this special operation to use the dark fruit as bait.

And this sentence also shocked the naval radicals, including Sakasky, and felt that the Warring States, which had always given the impression of being moderate, were too extreme!

What the Four Emperors represent is the existence of the Navy and even the World Government standing on the opposite side! This is a completely different nature from the Seven Martial Seas of His Majesty, which has the endorsement of the World Government and can be robbed with a license!

The reason why Sengoku said such things is not without reason.

In this great crisis of the Four Emperors forming an alliance to besiege the navy, the ambiguous attitude shown by the world government, especially the five old stars, is really intriguing.

The Navy's requirements for shipbuilding and training were greatly discounted, and the proposal to recruit the Seven Warriors to participate in the war was also rejected, and even the World Conscription was reluctantly agreed to after the Navy lost its troops, and in the process of implementation, the Warring States suddenly found that the branches of the World Government in various places did not seem to care about it at all, and this attitude was not as simple as ordinary passive sabotage.

In particular, Sengoku also learned that his old friend and retired admiral Zefa had been ordered to form a secret fleet, equipped with various new warships—as for the navy under his command, it was still living with old warships and heavy guns that had been captured with great difficulty; Moreover, after the attack on the capital of the seven waters in the South China Sea, Zefa's secret fleet was secretly ordered by the five old stars to fight, and was given the right to temporarily dispatch the naval branch to participate in the war; What's more, he didn't say hello to Sengoku, who was the marshal of the Navy Headquarters, so Sengoku felt even more uneasy.

As the world's shipbuilding center, the importance of the South China Sea, especially the capital of the seven waters, is self-evident, and the navy's warships are also ordered from the capital of the seven waters.

That's the navy's most important source of warship replenishment!

Although the navy is also a big business, it has been repeatedly defeated in several battles in the East China Sea, and the loss of the navy's in-service warships is also very large, and now it is the time when it is urgently needed to replenish, and as an important town, the capital of the seven waters also has a naval branch, whether it is public or private, Zefa should not be allowed to take the so-called 'new navy' to fight!

At the beginning, he just thought that the Tianlong people led by the five old stars were accustomed to an arrogant and lascivious life, so they were reluctant to spend too much financial resources to strengthen the power of the navy; But now it seems that the five old stars have other plans.

Even to say something unpleasant, the five old stars probably think that the navy is disobedient and plan to raise another obedient dog!

As for the current navy, it's just a matter of fighting to the death with the Four Emperors!

But Rao is like this, the Warring States can't understand why the five old stars are so ordinary and confident, do they still think that they can be as stable as an upside-down mountain in the two-sided attack of the 'Remnants of the Huge Kingdom' and the Four Emperors?

Even with the gradual disappearance of the windless zone, there is a problem with the magnetic field of the Upside-Down Mountain, and I am afraid that even the Holy Land Mary Joy will no longer be able to stabilize in the future!

As for Sakasky and the others, although they were deeply surprised by Sengoku's violent arguments, they finally accepted this special plan after listening to Sengoku's analysis.

“…… Willing to give it up? ”

Standing at the bow of the ship, Sakasky condescendingly looked down at Marshall J. Bush, who had surfaced under the 'huddle' of a group of admirals and colonels. D. Teach.

Marshall M. at this time D. Tić was already covered in bruises under Ace's indiscriminate bombardment, and although he was not worried about his life, he had no chance to resist under the siege of more than a dozen domineering and specialized admirals.

But even if he was held hostage by the admirals and colonels to the deck, even if the clothes on his body were tattered, even if his head was broken and bleeding, Marshall · D. Tič still insisted on holding his head with his hair blown up like a dog's gnaw, trying to show the arrogance of a strong man.

Of course, if Marshall J. D. Titch didn't grasp the box containing the Devil Fruit in his hand so tightly, and even his knuckles were a little white due to excessive tension, and the wooden box had deep scratches, then his performance at this time would have been more convincing.

'A vulgar man who has not forgotten to pretend at the end of his life...... But if this kind of villain is allowed to succeed in one day, I am afraid that it will be more rampant than everyone else......

A haughty Sakasky looked down at Marshall J. D. Titch, who silently commented on his character in his heart.

"Respect, Respect, Red ...... General Sakaski, under Blackbeard Marshall Brown. D. Titch, Hats Off ......"

Suppressed by Sakaski's momentum, Marshall M. D. Titch swallowed, his hands strained slightly to break free from the admirals' holds, and bowed to Sakarsky's salute.

Sakaski, who immediately frowned when he heard the word 'deficit', nodded slightly, and his brow immediately relaxed.

But he still didn't speak, just looked at Marshall Bush with the eyes of the Strange Species. D. Teach.

"Thank you for helping you regardless of your past suspicions......

Marshall S. D. Titch stumbled, his choice of words rather pretentious, trying to make himself appear a little cultured.

Sakaski's mouth tugged at him, making a classic smiling facial expression.

Marshall S. Seeing this, D. Tich immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

Probably not to die......

But their treasures may not be saved......

Thinking of this, Marshall M. D. Titch couldn't help but tighten his grip on the Devil Fruit Box.

But then he felt that this was somewhat inappropriate, so he relaxed his strength again.

And all this, Sakasky saw in his eyes.

'Words and deeds are inconsistent, and the first rat is ...... at both ends'

Sakasky vs. Marshall S. D. Titch is even lower.

“…… Your nickname is Blackbeard? ”

Marshall S. D. Titch was apprehensive for a long time before Sakasky spoke slowly.

"It's just a nickname, don't dare to stain the general's ears......"

Marshall S. D. Titch immediately bowed down and said, words and actions perfectly exemplify what it means to be able to bend and stretch.

"You deserve to be called Blackbeard too?"

Sakasky snorted coldly and reprimanded inadvertently: "Although Edward Newgate the Whitebeard is the most heinous pirate leader, his strength is obvious to the world, why do you add 'beard' to your nickname?" Is it going to replace it? ”

Marshall S. D. Tich was reprimanded in a head-splitting manner, and his mind went blank for a moment, and he didn't know how to respond.

"Judging from your skin color, I think it's better to call it black skin, what do you think?"

Sakasky also ignored Marshall M. D. Teach's expression changed, and he continued to say slowly: "After all, you are now too far from Whitebeard in terms of strength and strength, and it is just right to use a cheap name!" ”

Marshall S. D. Tichy was furious.

"What? Are you not convinced? ”

Sakasky snorted again, startling Marshall Brown. D. Titch shuddered.

"Thank you, Your Excellency, for the name!"

Then it's time to bow down.

But the Devil Fruit box in his hand was still clutched.

"Give my stuff back......"

Sakasky still doesn't plan to let go of this kowtow bug.

"Huh......"

Marshall S. D. Titchton was stunned.

Then he reacted, and realized that what Sakasky was asking for was the Dark Fruit, a treasure that he valued for his life!

"This is my ......"

But before he could finish speaking, Sakasky's outstretched left hand turned into a state of lava, pointing directly at Marshall J. D. Teach's head.

"It is just right for things to be returned to their original owners, please put away ......"

Marshall S. D. Titch immediately respectfully presented the Devil Fruit Box with both hands.

"Good!"

A satisfied smile appeared on Sakasky's face.

Trembling Marshall M. D. Tich was finally relieved, but then an uncontrollable resentment welled up in his heart, and his body began to tremble again.

"This is an extremely precious Nature-based Devil Fruit......"

Sakasky opened the box and took a look at it, took out the Devil Fruit from it and weighed it casually.

The frivolity of the action made Marshall M. D. Titch was a little frightened.

But this is life, and the foundation of life that I regard as a treasure is just a plaything that can be obtained and summoned at my fingertips in the eyes of others.

Thinking of this, Marshall M. D. Titch couldn't help but feel a little gloomy, and the resentment and anger in his heart quickly extinguished.

"You'd love to get it...... Is that right? ”

Sakasky said leisurely.

"What do you mean ......"

Marshall S. D. Titch rekindled a glimmer of hope.

But it's not much, after all, very few high-ranking naval officials would make a deal with pirates in the past, especially now that he is a fish belly to be slaughtered.

"If you can become the king of the Seven Martial Seas, then this Devil Fruit will be a reward from the navy!"

Sakasky deliberately accentuated the pronunciation of the word 'reward'.

"I would like to serve in the Navy! I will be loyal to Your Excellency! ”

Marshall S. D. Titch immediately bowed his head.

What kind of face and what dignity is not as important as the Devil Fruit in mind at this moment!

Although the title of 'King of the Seven Martial Seas' is very different from the One Piece of his dreams, at this moment, Marshall · D. Titch has run out of options.

Moreover, to be a dog to the respected General Sakasky, chilling!

"Very well, then do a few things for me......"

Sakasky chuckled and said, "When it's done, you'll be blessed!" ”

After this round of dominance and playing, Sakasky finally realized the beauty of controlling power and the general trend!

This is a completely different pleasure from conquering others by force!

……

"What a cunning moray eel!"

After a roundabout outflank, the yellow ape finally led his fleet to block the rapidly fleeing Ace's troops, and began to command his warships to attack.

Ace frowned, deeply disturbed.

It all seems like a coincidence!

It was an extremely unbelievable thing for the captured unescorted pirate ship to carry the precious Devil Fruit, and the inexplicable appearance of the navy in this sea area not far from the Four Emperors Combined Fleet interfered with the signal of the phone bug......

If no one was planning anything in this series of coincidences, Ace would never have believed it.

However, in addition to confirming that his friend Thatch was killed by Marshall M. Aside from what D. Tigg had killed, Ace had no clues.

Moreover, the most important thing in front of him at this time was to escape from the siege of a naval headquarters admiral and his warships!

"Boom, boom!"

The warships of both sides began to fire intensively.

The eight warships under the command of the Yellow Ape were outflanked, constantly throwing ammunition into the encirclement.

Although the pirate ships under Ace's command also fought back with all their might, they were more than a little worse than the navy in terms of training and combat strength.

So soon, after being hit by several salves from naval warships, the pirate ship began to panic.

There was even a pirate ship with the captain in the water trying to turn its sails and withdraw from the fight.

But soon, the discouraged pirate ship was blasted into a torch in another salvo of naval battleships!

Even if he fell to the downside, Ace still calmly commanded his subordinates to fight back with all his strength in order to delay time.

After all, in a naval battle of this scale, it is impossible for the garrison force of the Four Emperors Combined Fleet to be unaware of it.

"Hold on!"

Ace jumped to his feet and shot a pillar of fire from the palm of his hand to intercept the next cannonball, while continuing to cheer for his subordinates: "Daddy's fleet is coming soon, and then it will be a glorious time for us to counterattack and destroy this enemy!" ”

Although this is just a blank check, the prestige of Whitebeard still calms these disorganized pirates a little.

However, after the Navy hit a pirate ship with another salvo and caused a martyrdom, causing the entire ship to be blown into flying debris, the pirates' fighting spirit was completely lost.

Moreover, as the distance approached, the pirates also noticed the yellow ape standing on the bow of a naval warship.

This is the Admiral of the Navy Headquarters!

If it is a long-range shot, they may be able to muster up some courage to fight, but seeing that the two sides are about to take up the gang, they are not the stinky fish and rotten shrimp who will be slaughtered by the admiral!

"Boss! Make a decision! ”

Maskud Dius, a close confidant of the Spades Pirates, said urgently: "Otherwise, it will be too late!" ”

"I ......"

Ace naturally understood what his cronies meant—to put it bluntly, let him throw the second team of pirate ships as cannon fodder, and turn the sails and go away.

But that's not his usual style!

"Boss!"

Maskud Dius was even more anxious.

Although he is not afraid of death, judging from the current situation, even if the pirate ship equipped with external armor is better in protection, the huge gap between the two sides in terms of gunnery is enough to make up for the lack of defense, plus there is also a naval admiral present, they have no chance of winning!

"Daddy, they'll ...... right away"

Ace gritted his teeth and insisted.

But then a glimpse of a sail appeared on the sea level on the left, and Ace fixed his eyes to see that there were actually eight more naval warships!

"Shhh

Eston gasped.

Now it's okay, it's impossible to leave even if you want to!

But before Ace could make a declaration of death, a large expanse of sails appeared on the sea level on the right.

"It's our ship!"

Ace was pleasantly surprised!

"Whitebeard is here!"

Marshall M. Bushie, standing next to Sakasky, is D. Titch screamed. (End of chapter)
