Chapter 442: Marshal's Office: My place is small, it can't seat so many people~
"Let me see!"
"Let me see!"
The officers of the Whitebeard Pirates took the intelligence and passed it around, and after reading it, they were all shocked:
If there is a powerful captain, there will naturally be countless crew members coming to follow.
Could it be that a fifth Emperor-level pirate crew is about to be born in the New World,
and the pirate emperors dividing up the New World are going to go from four to five?
A middle-aged man with a burly figure, dark skin, messy hair, casually draped in a black coat, revealing his chest,
missing a few teeth, and sporting a black mustache, clutched the intelligence in his hand and stared at it, lost in thought.
"Teach, don't worry, we have Pops. So what if a fifth pirate emperor appears on the sea?"
The fourth division commander of the Whitebeard Pirates, who was also
the head chef of the Moby Dick, Thatch, patted his good friend on the shoulder,
his words full of firm belief in Pops, Whitebeard.
It's not like Kaido and Big Mom of the other pirate emperors haven't come to challenge Pops, especially Kaido, that battle maniac,
who always comes to challenge their Pops every few months, but every time he returns in a sorry state.
With Pops Whitebeard sitting in command, their Whitebeard Pirates fear no challenge!
"Ze ha ha ha ha."
"Yeah, Pops is the 'World's Strongest Man' after all!"
Teach opened his big mouth, which was missing a few teeth, and grinned wildly.
But looking at Whitebeard's body, which was still extremely strong,
yet could only rely on the IV drips hanging all over to maintain his life, his eyes flickered.
Among the Four Emperor pirate crews, the Beast Pirates and the Whitebeard Pirates had both obtained Zhang Jie's intelligence.
Only the Red Hair Pirates didn't know yet—partly because the Red Hair Pirates, compared to pirate crews that live by plundering,
are more like an adventure group formed with adventure as the core purpose.
Although they have planted their flag in the New World and occupy a large piece of territory,
they haven't formed pirate divisions like the Whitebeard Pirates, and their power is smaller, so they are somewhat lacking in intelligence work.
Secondly, it is because the Red Hair Pirates are not in the New World at this time!
Yes, one of the Four Emperors of the New World is actually not in his own territory!
It's like an emperor not sitting in the palace to issue orders, which is baffling.
However, most of the Red Hair Pirates' combat power is concentrated on their flagship, the Red Force.
Their combat power is strong and not easily taken down.
Plus, the Red Hair Pirates don't have such great ambitions and haven't caused any destruction,
and with Red Hair Shanks, who is suspected to be of Celestial Dragon descent, having an unclear and ambiguous relationship with the World Government,
the Red Hair Pirates, a Four Emperor pirate crew that should have been feared by the Marines and the World Government,
and even one they would want to get rid of and then quickly, were able to go to sea areas like the East Blue for vacations and adventures in a grand manner.
……
Marine Headquarters, Marineford, located in the first half of the Grand Line.
"Ever since that bastard Luo Jie started the so-called 'Great Pirate Era,'
not only is the New World getting more and more chaotic, with countless pirate crews wanting to reach Laugh Tale and become the next Pirate King;
but even in the Four Seas, countless ambitious people have gone to sea, wanting to find that so-called 'One Piece' (the Great Treasure).
The pressure on local branches is getting greater and greater, Marine casualties are getting more and more serious,
and the lives of ordinary people are getting harder and harder."
Inside the Marine Marshal's office, the Marine Marshal, wearing frog glasses, a seagull military cap,
with his chin beard braided into a plait, and the Marine "Justice" coat draped over his back,
Sengoku the Buddha looked at the reports submitted by the local branches and slammed the table in anger.
"Sengoku, don't be so angry, don't ruin your health.
Health is what, again? Right, it's the capital of revolution."
Sitting opposite Sengoku, the tall, muscular old man with a scar on his left eye,
wearing a dog-head cap, stretched out his finger to pick his nose and advised casually.
"Bang!"
Sengoku slammed his palm on the desk even more heavily:
"It would be better if you didn't say this, but I get even angrier when you do!
Garp, if it weren't for you asking for leave to go home every few days, would the pirates in the New World dare to be so arrogant?
Besides, you are a Marine Vice Admiral. Is it appropriate for you to say the word 'revolution' so grandly in front of
me, the Marine Marshal?"
Clearly, this old man who made Marine Marshal Sengoku the Buddha fly into a rage
was the one who, decades ago at God Valley, joined forces with Luo Jie to defeat the captain of the Rocks Pirates, Rocks,
destroyed his dream of "becoming the King of the World," and later personally arrested Luo Jie, who became the Pirate King,
the grandfather of Ace and Monkey D. Luffy, the father of the "World's Worst Criminal" Monkey D. Dragon,
Marine Vice Admiral and Marine Hero, Monkey D. Garp.
Marshal's Office: My place is small, it can't seat so many people~
Garp flicked his finger nonchalantly, flicking away the suspicious object on his finger:
"I'm an old guy who has already reached retirement age. What's wrong with wanting to go back to my hometown to enjoy my grandchildren?
I only have those two cute grandsons!
As for revolution, I just think it fits well here. It's clearly you who thought too much."
"Cute grandsons? Then look at this!"
It would have been better if Garp hadn't spoken; as soon as he did, black lines appeared on Sengoku's head.
He pulled a document off the table and threw it at Garp.
Garp took it and looked at it, then laughed out loud: "Good boy, worthy of being my grandson!"
The document he opened clearly had a portrait of a young boy wearing an orange cowboy hat and showing a brilliant smile.
Below the file it also wrote: 'Fire Fist', Portgas D. Ace, one of the newly appeared East Blue pirate supernovas,
Captain of the Spade Pirates, fought to a draw with Marine Captain Smoker in Loguetown,
suspected Logia-type Flame-Flame Fruit ability user, suggested bounty 53 million Berries!
"Is this how you go home to see your grandson? You found a pirate supernova?"
Sengoku looked at Garp, his head full of black lines.
First there was the "World's Worst Criminal" Dragon, and now there's a pirate supernova.
He highly suspected that Garp's educational ability was negative—
and he was a Marine Vice Admiral and hero representing justice!
"Hmm, yeah, why did this kid Ace go to be a pirate?"
The thick-nerved Garp then slapped his head, reacting.
He remembered that he had always taught Ace that even if he didn't become a Marine, he couldn't become a pirate.
After all, if the World Government knew about the bloodline of the Pirate King Luo Jie, that would be a huge trouble.
Back then, after the World Government knew that Luo Jie still had a bloodline circulating in the world,
they launched a massive manhunt, swearing to completely cut off the "evil bloodline of the Pirate King."
It was Ace's mother, Portgas D. Rouge, who, in order to protect Ace,
used a special method to extend the pregnancy time to 20 months,
and finally gave birth to Ace after avoiding the search, but died from exhaustion.
"No, Sengoku, I want to ask for leave, I want to go back to the East Blue, I want to go educate my grandson!"
Garp grabbed the coat on the chair, draped it over himself casually, and was about to leave.
One grandson had already gone astray, he couldn't let the last grandson, Luffy, go down the wrong path again. ===== CHAPTER 443 =====
