Chapter 551
Kuzan shook his head, thinking that the World Government shouldn't be stupid enough to push the Navy, the hegemon of the sea, into the Revolutionary Army's camp.
Wait, the World Government seems to have done similar things more than once...
"So, the more this happens, the tougher we must be. Tell the World Government that we are not afraid of anything. The existence of our Navy has only one purpose, and that is to eliminate pirates!"
"Clean up their own mess; don't expect the Navy to wipe their asses."
Kuzan smiled helplessly: "You say it lightly, but what if the World Government gets anxious?"
"Anxious? That would be great. Under what circumstances would the World Government get anxious? Of course, only when they can't beat the Revolutionary Army. At that time, if the World Government has even the slightest thought of dragging the whole world down with them, the Navy must strike hard and personally sweep the World Government into the grave of history."
"To be honest, I really hope the World Government gets anxious. After all, I've been unhappy with them for a long time."
Kuzan:......
"You really dare to say that! Then what do you think we should do now?"
Karl said confidently: "Everything as usual. The Reverie should be held as scheduled, and the Revolutionary Army should be pursued as usual. The Navy must never actively intervene in the war between the Revolutionary Army and the World Government."
Kuzan nodded: "Alright, I understand. Let's not talk about this for now. There is another problem, and it's about Kaido."
"According to our information, the Straw Hat Pirates went to Kaido's territory after leaving Totto Land, and are now fighting fiercely with Kaido. I was originally prepared to send people to intervene, but you understand the situation now. The Navy cannot be distracted to clean up the aftermath of Wano Country."
"Unless, Straw Hat Luffy can defeat Kaido."
Karl's mouth curled up slightly: "What if Straw Hat Luffy really wins?"
Kuzan was stunned. Obviously, he had never thought that the Straw Hat crew would win. After a brief thought, Kuzan replied: "The snipe and the clam fight, and the fisherman benefits."
"If Kaido loses, the Navy must enter Wano Country and take the Seastone resources of Wano Country into its own hands."
Who has the greatest demand for Seastone in the world? That must be the Navy, without a doubt.
Seastone handcuffs, Seastone prisons, Seastone bullets, Seastone warships....
Seastone is absolutely the most important strategic resource besides the Holy Light Shells and Healing Shells. Previously, the Navy could only obtain Seastone through the World Government because the World Government controlled the trading channels for Seastone.
Speaking of which, it's quite funny. The World Government relies on the protection money collected by the Navy to get the source of Seastone from Kaido, and then the Navy has to rely on the military budget given by the World Government to buy Seastone from the World Government again...
This is also why Kuzan would act out of character and believe that if there is an opportunity, the Navy must enter Wano Country.
Karl could understand Kuzan's thoughts very well. If it were him, he would do the same, because before Kuzan thought of this, he had already done it.
It's just that what he controlled wasn't Seastone, but Sky Shells.
"Kuzan, I have an idea."
"Go ahead."
Karl picked up a piece of white paper from his seat and started drawing.
"Look, this is Mary Geoise. The Reverie is being held now, and the Navy needs to assign personnel to be responsible for security during the Reverie. This means the Navy cannot send troops to intervene in the dispute in Wano Country, right!"
"That's right, what else?"
"This is Wano Country. Kaido and the Straw Hat Pirates are fighting. Of course, Kaido has occupied Wano Country for many years. With the pirate style, there is naturally no shortage of resistance forces within Wano Country. In other words, the current situation of the Beasts Pirates is actually not optimistic."
"You mean, the Straw Hat crew really might defeat Kaido? Is that it?"
Karl nodded: "Two years ago, the Straw Hats had no chance at all, but now, it's hard to say. Don't forget, Straw Hat Luffy's fruit."
Kuzan's pupils constricted: "You mean, the Nika fruit?"
Now it was Karl's turn to be shocked: "How did you know?"
"I looked through the files from more than a decade ago. Shanks became famous because he snatched the Nika fruit back then."
"Combined with Shanks' performance at the Summit War, it's not hard to guess that Straw Hat Luffy is the reason Shanks values him so much because he ate the Nika fruit."
"You saw it?"
Kuzan smiled mysteriously: "Because when Shanks first debuted, some people also called him Straw Hat Boy...." ===== CHAPTER 553 =====
