Located in front of the Red Clay Continent in the middle of the great route, in this Shambodian Islands with the world's largest mangrove "Yarchiman Mangrove" and the magical bubble culture. In this dreamlike and beautiful place, today, in a conference room at the Navy's base in the No. 66 area, the highest leader of the world government, the five old stars, and the chief generals of the three armies, and the senior generals of the navy gathered here and had a meeting.
What they are discussing is undoubtedly the response to a series of major events that the naughty child Anne Hasta passed by Fishman Island a few days ago and caused on Fishman Island.
Now, whether it is the Five Old Stars, the Chief Commander of the Three Army, or the Navy's bosses, they have actually reached a consensus, that is:
Anything that naughty child involved will be nothing good in the end and it will definitely not be a trivial matter!
From the Shambodian Islands at the beginning to the Promotion City later, then the Navy Headquarters Marinfando, and now it is the crucial Haiti Channel Fishman Island. The series of events that the naughty child caused and participated in were almost exhausted by the senior leaders present.
But there is no way, since things have happened, they can never escape, and this is the main reason why they gathered in the Shambodian Islands today and prepared for a meeting!
"Are everyone here?"
"Then let's talk about Fishman Island..."
"How to deal with it?"
With the arrival of the staff and the beginning of the meeting, the old man among the five old stars was wearing a black suit, white curly hair, a fluffy white beard, a flat hat, and a scar on his left face. The old man was the first to speak.
"I guess you all understand the situation, right?"
“So…”
"If we allow naughty children to continue to torture on Fishman Island like this, our world government will really lose that important channel completely!"
"You also know that Mary Choya, the Holy Land, can only pass people, not ships, and wants to go to the new world through the Red Clay Continent or return from the new world. If we cannot abandon the ship, even our navy can only go to that undersea passage."
"Of course, so are cargo ships!"
"Once we really lose the Fishman Island, it will be a trivial matter to be blocked from freight on both sides of the Red Clay Continent. What I am more worried about is that our navy will be constrained from here and it will be inconvenient to transport transportation, but I am afraid that the situation will become more and more embarrassing."
Speaking of this, the five old stars sighed heavily.
Yes, although their world government has a holy land, Mary Choa, a channel that can pass through the Red Clay Continent better and safely, after all, it is only a land channel. If you pass, you need to apply, which costs a lot of money and time. More importantly, you can only abandon the ship when passing, and it is also very inconvenient to transport goods. To some extent, it is not even as dangerous as the dangerous undersea channel.
And this is why these people gathered together in the Shambodian Islands and had a meeting here today, isn’t it because that naughty child has seriously threatened the interests of their world government and navy?
"But……"
"Now, Fishman Island didn't say that we wouldn't pass our navy, right?"
"They occupied the place before Whitebeard died, and it seemed that they did not cause much trouble to us, right?"
At this time, the lieutenant general and staff member of the Navy headquarters, the capable person to wash the fruits, the tall and gray-haired "Crane" spoke up, and carefully refuted and comforted the five old stars who looked a little irritable.
"Yes……"
"They didn't say they wouldn't let us pass!"
"but!"
"Anyone who does not follow their rules will be attacked, whether it is the navy or the pirates, and they have begun to act. The detained Tianlong people and the naval mediation fleet that was attacked are proof of this!"
"Anyway, that important route will never be handed over to a group of fishmen!"
"no way!"
The five old stars with a fluffy white beard seemed to have some discrimination against fishmen and mermaids, so their tone was very disdainful and firm when speaking.
“…”
Hearing the five old stars say that, there was nothing he could do. The lieutenant general and staff member of the Navy headquarters was silent. She regretfully lowered her already shriveled cheeks, and frowned and looked at the report on her desk and stopped talking.
"It is said that now the naughty kid and her Sonny have arrived in the new world, right?"
"if……"
"I mean, if we take advantage of her absence, mobilize ships from New World and the Shampoo Islands to dispatch elite troops, and launch two-sided attacks on Fishman Island from both sides at the east and west, how much chance of winning will we have?"
Seeing that no one was speaking, another five old star wearing a crimson suit, without a bow tie, blonde hair, a golden beard, and had a scar on his chest and asked tentatively.
Obviously, you can tell from what he said that he must be a pro-war faction, and he also thought about taking advantage of the absence of the naughty child and the white beard's death to completely seize the crucial and often used Haiti Channel into the hands of the world government in one go.
“…”
"In the past, there must have been a great chance to win, but..."
"Now, there is almost no chance of winning!"
After a while of silence, the female lieutenant general and staff member who had something just now, "He" who dared not say anything, spoke again, and once he opened his mouth, he poured cold water on the five old stars.
“!!”
"Why is that?"
"Now, the Navy's general Kizaru and Aokiji are all back. With three generals here, can't they take over the Fishman Island without naughty children?"
The five old stars with white curly hair and fluffy white beard just now asked again.
Yes, everyone present knew that Kizaru and Aokiji had both returned to the navy now, but Aokiji fought with Akainu because of the question of whom took office as the new Navy headquarters. The two often fought so hard that they were blushing and thick-necked, so they almost fought directly.
As for Kizaru...
Because the slut was not nominated, he still was idle all day long and didn't want to go to work. If he hadn't been named by the five old stars, he probably wouldn't have come to this meeting.
"It's because of those Naga Royal Guards!"
"With them here, it's probably not that easy for the Navy to take down the Fishman Island."
Finally, the world government's chief commander-in-chief of the three armies spoke.
However, he tried his best to speak in a tactful direction. Now that the world government or navy wants to take down the Fishman Island, it is definitely not as simple as "not easy".
"I guess you also saw from the surveillance footage of the spy phone bug at that time that the aquariums named Naga Royal Guard were very powerful!"
"Not mentioning other abilities, their huge size and the terrifying degree of physical attacks are enough to make us, the humans on land, feel desperate."
"I really couldn't imagine what our navy would use to compete with monsters with absolute underwater advantages in that trench ten thousand meters below the sea."
"A monster of that level is no longer something that can be described by a mere Neptune."
As he spoke, thinking of the information he had obtained, the general manager, Shak Kong, shook his head in frustration, not intending to continue talking to avoid damaging his morale.
“…”
"Kizaru!"
"If it were you, how likely would you win against those Naga Royal Guards?"
After thinking about the words for a while, hesitating for a while, the one of the five old stars, who was wearing a crimson suit and blonde hair and golden tiger beard suddenly asked.
"Naga?"
"It's so terrible..."
However, Kizaru flattened his mouth a little carelessly, looking like he was wandering around the world.
“…”
“…”
“…”
Hearing Kizaru speak, the five old stars and the big guys present did not rush to interrupt each other, but just looked at and waited for Kizaru to continue talking.
"Okay OK!"
"On land, I'm confident that I can win if I don't say anything about that!"
"Of course, that must be a one-on-one situation?"
Seeing this problem, Kizaru could not avoid it, and there was no way. He had to hold his arms and at the same time reach out and grab a photo of "Naga Royal Guard" on the table and explain it quietly while looking.
He began to recall the scenes of the Nagas who had seen on the surveillance phone bugs emitted water shock waves, frozen arrows, summoning monsters in the water and beating Vander Deken and Hoddy Jones. Then, as he thought about it, his brows frowned slightly.
"If it's in the sea..."
"Even if there are bubbles to isolate the sea water, even if it is one-on-one, I think I may not be the opponent of any of them, let alone so many of them."
"It's so scary..."
After saying that, Kizaru dropped the photo, then hugged his arms and legs crossed his legs and lay in his own position without saying anything.
Of course, if what he said is true or not, then only he himself knows.
"That's right..."
"I see."
Hearing this, the five old star who was asking questions became a little ugly. Obviously, he knew that Kizaru said that on purpose and obviously did not want to go to the bottom of the sea, but he nodded in the end and did not continue to ask more about that question.
“…”
“…”
“…”
“…”
Then, the conference room fell silent again, and everyone stared at the information and photos on the desktop, and no one was in a hurry to speak.
"Ahem!"
After a while, I saw that the meeting scene seemed a little dull, so I had to speak again.
"Everyone!"
"The situation is indeed very urgent now. Let's not mention the nearly 100 terrifying Naga Royal Guards summoned by that naughty child. There are new situations under the sea now!"
"Look, here!"
"According to the latest news from our CP0 intelligence personnel, the Nagas seem to be building some strange devices like ‘doors’."
"Then, like what they did when they appeared that day, more Nagas came out from those devices that looked like doors..."
"Although many of them seem to be as strong and tall as those Naga Royal Guards, there are more women Naga who can even obey orders, and now they are increasing in number!"
"so……"
"Everyone! If we still do nothing, in the foreseeable future, what our navy will lose is not just Fishman Island and that important undersea channel."
After raising his hand and picking up documents and photos to signal to the attendees, the world government's chief military commander Kong said in a deep voice.
“!!”
"General Manager!"
"I want to know more now, where did their Nagas come from?"
At this time, Akainu, who had not spoken, suddenly asked with a vicious face and attracted the attention of the participants.
Now Akainu's injuries have recovered almost, but in the war of the top, he was embarrassed!
Now almost everyone in the world knows that when he turned into a slurry, he was eaten by the hateful giant flame bear and pulled it out as a "baba". Then, now many pirates and some bastard mobs, and even the navy like to call him "Red Dust" in private, not only did he lose face, but it also directly affected his competition with Aokiji for the marshal of the Navy headquarters.
Therefore, among everyone present, he is undoubtedly the one who hates the most for naughty children and people or things related to naughty children, and no one!
"this……"
"I don't know yet!"
Hearing this, he flipped through the thick stack of information in front of him, but in the end, he stopped regretfully and shook his head.
"There is no way, after all, they are races in the sea, and the sea is still a little too vast for our world. Who knows that they emerge from that corner of the deep sea?"
With his shoulders drooping, Sora didn't know where to start.
"but……"
“There is something to confirm!”
Suddenly, Sora directly raised his face and sat upright.
"oh?"
"Tell me?"
When I heard that Kong seemed to have noticed something, the five old stars who were wearing a dark blue suit, with long white hair, a long beard, and were always doing nothing, so I asked with interest.
“Um…”
"Before I'm talking about it, I can connect you with some key information here..."
However, Sora did not rush to speak, but took out some documents and photos to put them together.
"first!"
"We all know that the identity of a naughty child has been a mystery until now. No one knows where she came out. This is very interesting!"
"Also, according to reliable information, that naughty child, Anne Hasta, has always liked to regard himself as the 'Queen' and the 'The Most Most Most... The Most Powerful Arcane Mage'."
"There are many of them here, and there are too many, so I won't read them one by one for you. Anyway, that's probably what it means."
"then……"
"It was the naughty child Anne Hasta who summoned those Nagas, and from the reactions that Nagas bowed to her, it was not difficult to guess the affiliation between them, right?"
"I believe everyone can basically confirm some things just by this."
"Of course, this is not over yet!"
"There is another important thing. Let's take a look at this set of photos..."
"This is what happened when the two people from the rebellion of the Fishman Pirates pierced the bubbles on the mermaid princess Bai Xing. Look, they successfully drowned the naughty child directly into the sea, but..."
"She did not show anything that needed to hold her breath or feel suffocated like our humans on land, and could even speak calmly?"
Speaking of this, Sora looked up at the attendees around him.
Then, from the surprised or clear expressions on everyone's faces, it was not difficult for him to guess that they must have paid attention to what he meant, so he continued to say:
"at last……"
"The names of those terrifying deep-sea monsters, those Naga's names are 'Naga Royal Guard'. Everyone should know what the 'Royal Guard' means, right?"
"so……"
"We might as well make a bold guess here!"
"In our world, in some unknown place in the deep sea and without any connection to land, there is a kingdom called 'Naga', the unknown place of the city or race, and their queen or seniority is probably the naughty child Anne Hasta!"
"This is why we exhausted everything, but we have never been able to find out the origin and true identity of the naughty child!"
"This also shows why she could summon those Nagas by some means and they still obey her!"
"To sum up, that naughty child, the other party will never be as simple as we thought for granted. The other party was just a secret weapon sent by the thief "Dragon".
"Now……"
"They Naga and that mysterious kingdom have officially appeared in our sight and are trying to summon more tribesmen and establish rule in the Fishman Kingdom. We must pay attention to this!"
After analyzing it, the more I said it, the more I felt that it was reasonable and logical, and I slapped the table and said firmly.
Of course, he really doesn't know how to pay attention to it.
“…”
“…”
“…”
After listening to the information analyzed by the Chief of the Army, everyone present did not speak, but frowned and each digested what they had just heard.
"null……"
"You said it well, I can't find a reason to refute it."
"So, let's just think that the content and guesses you analyzed are the closest to the truth, but..."
“We can do nothing about it!”
"You just said that the number of Naga clans appearing on Fishman Island now is likely to have exceeded 500. That is no longer the force our navy can fight against, at least not in the sea."
At this time, the old man who was one of the five old stars, wearing a dark blue suit, with long white hair and a long beard, spoke again and shook his head regretfully.
"Yes."
"The most important thing now is not how to deal with the matter of Fishman Island and Naga, because at least it can maintain the status quo, and their strength has not expanded rapidly to an immediate impact on land and sea."
"The thing that's deadly now..."
"The Dragon Palace Kingdom of Fishman Island once again issued an ultimatum to us, saying that it would allow us to unconditionally release all fishman and mermaid slaves in the hands of the Navy, the World Government or the Celestial Dragon people within three months!"
"Although the ultimatum does not state what they will do if we refuse, it can be imagined that the situation will be very bad at that time."
Then, the bald beard with two horoscopes on the shaped beard, with a birthmark on the forehead, and the five old stars spoke, and said so worriedly.
“!!”
"Does our navy have mermaids or mermaid slaves?"
When Aokiji, who had not spoken, heard all the big guys discussing, suddenly asked and showed off his presence.
"this……"
"It seems that there is no, but there is a little bit of the captives locked in the Propulsion City."
After looking through some information and recalling it, the lieutenant general and Chief of Staff He said so confidently.
"What about the world government and the Tianlong people?"
"Is there still Mary Giojari in the Holy Land? How many are there?"
Aokiji asked again.
“…”
However, the female lieutenant general He suddenly stopped talking.
Because the slave affairs are very sensitive and involve the holy land and the dragon people, her little lieutenant general dare not make random comments at such meetings.
“…”
“…”
“…”
The five old stars who were still discussing just now also kept silent. Obviously, slaves, celestial dragons and other people were a secret question, and they didn't want to explain it more.
"Ahem!"
“As far as I know…”
"In countries around the world, whether in the hands of some big businessmen or politicians, there are many mermaids or fish slaves, as for the celestial dragons..."
"The holy land of Mary Giojari, there are probably hundreds or even thousands of mermaids and fishman slaves, and their descendants?"
Seeing that no one answered, the general of the three armies, Kong, said it indifferently and looked at the five old stars at the same time.
When Tiger liberated slaves, there were thousands of slaves liberated from the holy land of Mary Choaía, and that was not all. Now, after so many years, the slaves in the hands of the Tianlong people have probably returned to a considerable number.
“Um…”
"This topic needs no discussion!"
"The dragon people will not hand over those slaves unconditionally because of the ultimatum of the Dragon Palace Kingdom!"
"go!"
"I should issue warnings to the navy and governments, so that they should try not to pass the seabed channels and nearby waters in the near future."
"As for other things..."
"I'll discuss it another day!"
As they said that it seemed that the matter about slaves made the five old stars feel a little embarrassed and angry, so they stood up one after another and announced their withdrawal in advance, leaving only a group of naval executives sitting in their respective positions in their eyes.
"Look!"
"I wasn't it wrong before?"
"That naughty kid..."
"It's so scary!"
After a long time, after all the five old stars left, before waiting for others to speak, Kizaru stood up for the first time and sneered and teased with a flat mouth.
Then, without waiting for others to say anything, he left the venue in disappointment in his pants pocket and wearing the navy's "Zhengyi" coat.
""
""
The senior naval executives present had no intention of stopping it. After all, they knew that Kizaru was just a gangster, and the other party complained about not being nominated for the Navy headquarters marshal. It is natural that they would not work hard now. They should not blame too much, otherwise the other party would have to resign directly.
Chapter completed!
