……
Two days later.
Seagulls flitted across the clear sky.
Marlin Fando.
Navy headquarters.
A meeting about the future of the naval government and the world was being held as scheduled.
In front of the large oval table in the conference room.
16 Vice Admiral of the Navy.
Two navy generals.
In addition to the current admiral Zhan Guo, the chief advisor He, and the others.
All the higher-ups of the navy were gathered here.
This serious lineup.
He believed that if ordinary people were here.
His hands and feet would definitely tremble because of the atmosphere in the conference room.
After all.
It was hard to imagine that in this small conference room.
At this moment, almost all the highest combat power of the navy had gathered.
Regardless of whether it was a lieutenant general with a fearsome reputation.
He was also known as the highest-ranking admiral in the world government.
He was even the marshal who held the highest command of the navy.
All of them gathered together.
It could be seen from the side.
The importance the navy attached to the White Beard Pirates.
However…
Just as the meeting was held as scheduled and everyone was proposing various deployment strategies.
Suddenly.
Admiral Sengoku received an urgent order from the World Government.
He had no choice but to temporarily interrupt the meeting.
The remaining higher-ups in the meeting room could not help but look at each other in confusion.
“... Marshal of the Warring States? What happened?"
"To be able to interrupt such an important meeting, he must have encountered something urgent.”
The rough-looking Vice Admiral Huo Shaoshan stared at the door of the conference room and couldn't help but scratch his head.
Vice Admiral Flying Squirrel nodded in agreement.
However, he did not think too much about it.
Instead, he was thinking about the contents of the meeting.
The White Beard Pirates 'Second Division Captain, Fire Fist Ace, was executed.
According to the reliable information discussed in the meeting just now, the White Beard Pirates would definitely not sit idly by.
This was the core of the navy's plan to bury the White Beard Pirates in one fell swoop.
However, just in case, someone had just suggested to gather the Sea of Seven Martial Arts.
On the surface, the Seven Martial Seas were pirates who had the qualifications to plunder legally issued by the world government.
Now that the navy needed combat power, it was time for the Seven Martial Seas to contribute.
This proposal.
The Vice Admiral, including the Flying Squirrel, agreed unanimously.
After being a parasite for so long, he was not raised for nothing!
Therefore, the only troublesome part of this proposal was that it was not easy to get rid of it.
It was how to make the Seven Martial Seas, who were usually arrogant, obediently participate in the plan.
Flying Squirrel's expression turned cold when he thought of the Seven Martial Seas.
After a while.
Sengoku, who had just left, returned to the conference room.
"Marshal."
"Marshal Zhan Guo!"
When everyone saw Zhan Guo return, they felt relieved and prepared to continue promoting their own suggestions.
However…
Something unexpected happened.
Compared to the previous meeting, Sengoku's focus was on the White Beard Pirates.
When he returned to the conference room, Sengoku's face was extremely dark.
He swept his gaze over the group of lieutenant generals and the others from the White Beard Pirates.
Zhan Guo was silent for a moment before he said,""Cancel the meeting at the last minute."
"Marshal Sengoku, about the strength of the White Beard Pirates?”
" Cancel the meeting?!"
" What happened?!"
Halfway through the proposal, everyone in the conference room immediately reacted.
Vice Admiral Flying Squirrel and the others were stunned.
What happened?
The meeting was canceled at the last minute?
Did they hear wrongly?
"Hey, hey, hey, Marshal Sengoku, may I ask what happened? Why is the meeting interrupted?”
The scar-faced Vice Admiral Dougman couldn't help but stand up, his face full of disbelief.
As one of the navy forces that participated in the Demon Slayer Token incident back then.
Dougman belonged to the Hawk Faction Navy, just like Flying Squirrel and the others.
Originally, he had already thought of using the White Beard Pirates to sow discord between them.
But now, he heard that the Sengoku Marshal wanted to interrupt the meeting.
This made Dougman extremely uncomfortable, and he was eager to know what had happened.
He could actually interrupt a meeting that was the top priority of the navy headquarters!
"What happened? Warring States?"
Not far away, Lieutenant General He looked at Zhan Guo in confusion.
Zhan Guo heard this.
His ugly expression did not improve.
Instead, he glanced at the doubts that were spreading around the conference room.
Zhan Guo took out a document that he had just obtained from outside the conference room.
His face sank slightly as he slowly said,
"Something big has happened in the North Sea."
The North Sea?
He suddenly heard the name of the Chaotic Sea, which he wasn't very familiar with.
The higher-ups of the navy were all confused.
North Sea.
In their impression.
The North Sea had always been synonymous with the most chaotic sea of the four seas.
Pirates, mafias, family forces, and constant wars between kingdoms were all extremely troublesome.
It was a very troublesome place.
However…
Even so.
What exactly happened in the North Sea?
He could actually forcefully interrupt this extremely important meeting?
The final outcome of this meeting would affect countless people in the outside world.
But even so.
The Sengoku Marshal still chose to interrupt this meeting!
The lieutenant generals and the others were in disbelief.
In the corner of the conference room.
When the flying squirrel heard the name 'Beihai', it was shocked.
He couldn't help but think of a 'small matter' that he didn't take to heart two days ago.
But even so, the flying squirrel did not think of White Night.
After all, he was a retired veteran. Even if he disobeyed orders and left the navy, what could he do alone?
At this moment.
Zhan Guo spoke.
"It's the gold in the sky... He was kidnapped."
"What is it? Heavenly Gold?"
"Are those guys from the North Sea crazy?!”
"Someone actually has their eyes on the heavenly gold that is being offered to the Heavenly Dragon people?”
Hearing this, many lieutenant generals in the conference room could not help but change their expressions.
Flying Squirrel's first thought upon hearing this was:
It was also because a madman had appeared in the North Sea.
Gold in the sky.
As everyone knew, that was the wealth that the World Government member countries had to pay tribute to the Heavenly Dragon people every year.
And something that could be related to the world's nobles...
Be it the Four Seas or the Great Sea Route.
Almost anyone with a bit of rationality would understand the consequences!
but
The flying squirrel had a bad premonition.
If it was just gold from the sky…
"Sengoku, if it's just Heavenly Gold, you wouldn't have asked the World Government to personally give you an order, right?”
Crane spoke at this moment, and a solemn expression appeared on his face.
Hearing this.
The shocked Vice Admiral and the others couldn't help but widen their eyes.
Could it be…
"Something more serious than the kidnapping of Golden Above Heavens happened in the North Sea?”
Everyone in the conference room could not help but look at Zhan Guo.
Zhan Guo felt the gazes gathered on him.
Then, Zhan Guo, whose face had darkened, nodded in agreement.
Gritting his teeth, his expression was extremely solemn as he added,
"That's right…The most troublesome thing in the North Sea was not the Heavenly Gold, but the youngest son of the Roth Saint Family who lived in the Holy Land on that ship.”
Ross Saint... The youngest son of the family?
Hmm?
Wait a minute...
Saint? This title.
Everyone heard this.
"Could…could it be?"
" Sky, Sky Dragon Man?!"
Immediately, all the vice-admirals who reacted immediately.
They subconsciously sucked in a breath of cold air.
Soon after.
A crazy thought flashed through his mind.
The North Sea!
Someone over there had really gone crazy!
He dared to have designs on the gold in the sky.
It was almost equivalent to provoking the World Government!
In that case, with the addition of the Heavenly Dragon Man…
He might even be the heir of a Heavenly Dragon Clan in the future…
Even though the Vice Admiral present had experienced many things.
At this moment, he could not help but waver.
What kind of lunatic had appeared in the North Sea…
He actually…How dare he do such a crazy thing!
