"Hey, Smoker, you look really embarrassed right now."
Allen took off the hood that covered his face and said hello proactively with a smile.
He completely did not expect that after so many interventions, this "old smoker" would eventually choose to leave Loguetown, chase Straw Hat Pirates all the way to Grand Line, and also be involved in this major incident of Ancient Weapon Pluton blueprint.
"It's you?!"
Smoker's face changed slightly, and he immediately raised his hand to stop his companion who wanted to take action.
"Yeah! That's right! It's me. Being kicked out like this, you must be filled with unwillingness and anger, right? By the way, do you still remember the agreement between us?" Allen probed meaningfully.
"Promise? Hina is very confused! Smoker, you'd better explain what is going on." Hina turned around and stared at his friend of the same period with vigilant eyes.
"Well - this matter is a bit troublesome to talk about, please calm down first." Smoker held his forehead with a headache.
"It's no trouble. In fact, Smoker has officially agreed to become my ally not long ago. Not only him, but also Admiral Aokiji, and now Demon Pirates is also a member of Demon Pirates. What, is this news shocking?" A playful expression appeared on Allen's face.
Hina Hearing these words, his eyes widened immediately and he was speechless in shock.
After a full minute, she bit her lower lip and asked, "Smoker! Is this true? Answer me!"
"Oh, okay, I admit, these are all true. But I'm really not sure that guy Kuzan really left the navy?"
Smoker took a fierce puff on his cigar, obviously not believing that Aokiji would betray the navy.
After all, so far, the Navy has not yet figured out whether Kuzan is dead or alive.
In addition, he himself has no record of taking action after joining Demon Pirates, so there is no definite news from the outside world at the moment.
The only spy Drake who knew the truth was left on the ship to guard the prisoner Kuja Pirates, and had no chance to send the information out.
Allen obviously also knew how unbelievable it was for people in this world to rebel against a general. He immediately asked with a half-smile, "Do you think I will lie to you?"
"No! I think you are telling the truth, that's why I find it difficult to accept." Smoker sighed slightly.
"There is nothing difficult to accept! The times are going crazy, and the whole world is also entering an unprecedented turmoil. In such an environment, everyone is faced with a variety of choices, and no one can stay out of it." Allen glanced at Hina, whose pupils were full of vigilance, and explained.
"You mean... I have to make a choice now, right?"
Smoker is obviously not a fool, and he immediately understood the subtext of what he just said.
Allen nodded slightly. "Yes! Our plan has already started! If you want to play an important role in it, you must show some sincerity."
"Just tell me! What do you need me to do?" Smoker asked simply.
"It's very simple! I want you to be promoted quickly to become Vice Admiral or Marine Vice Admiral Candidate, so that you can gather a force within the navy so that you can stand up and take control of the overall situation at critical moments. At least when World Government completely collapses, the navy can still play a role in maintaining basic order." Allen said his plan casually.
"You want me to turn the navy into a controlled puppet?" Smoker frowned subconsciously.
"No, you are overthinking. I have no interest in controlling the navy. I just hope that it can continue to perform its functions. It is not me who will really take over you in the future, but the new regime established by the Revolutionary Army. In addition, don't you think that the current navy is not a puppet at the mercy of World Government and Celestial Dragons?"
When saying these words, Allen had a strong sense of irony in his tone.
Especially once Celestial Dragons is attacked, the general must be dispatched immediately to settle the matter as quickly as possible. It is simply a black spot and shame that the navy cannot erase no matter how hard it is.
The general who symbolizes the highest combat power of the navy is like the dog raised by Celestial Dragons at this time.
It comes when you call it, and it goes away when you wave it.
Apart from being servile, he really couldn't imagine how these strong men could endure a bunch of rubbish and rubbish telling them what to do.
If it were him, he would tear these guys into pieces in the most painful and cruel way in a matter of minutes, then extract their souls and cut them into small pieces bit by bit.
Hearing that Allen would not directly control the navy, Smoker's heavy heart became a little lighter, and a thoughtful expression appeared on his face. "Okay! But the problem is that I am only a small colonel now. How do you plan to promote me quickly?"
"Haha, have you forgotten, this is Alabasta, there is a Seven Warlords who destroyed the naval base and tried to snatch Ancient Weapon Pluton blueprint - Crocodile. Just imagine, how would Marine Headquarters react if you could arrest him as a navy officer? "Allen's eyes flashed with naked and undisguised malice towards Sand Crocodile.
I have to say that it was extremely miserable for Crocodile to fall into his hands.
First, the only partner who could read ancient characters, Nicole Robin, was poached, and then she had to be used as an experience pack for Straw Hat Pirates. Finally, she had to be forced to extract the fruit and give it to Smoker as a tool for promotion and salary increase.
"Do you know where Crocodile is hiding?!" Smoker's eyes instantly lit up.
"Of course I know! But I won't tell you! Because he is Straw Hat Luffy's prey, not yours. So just go to the port and wait. After the last bit of his remaining value is drained, I will deliver it to you. Oh, I almost forgot, this Miss Hina will stay with me for the time being. Is that okay?"
With that said, Allen turned his attention to the female navy not far away who had entered combat mode.
"Don't even think about it! Hina won't let you succeed!"
The words just fell!
Hina fiercely swung out the fist wrapped around Armament Haki.
She is undoubtedly very clear that Allen is the Ability User of Logia Rumble-Rumble Fruit, so her Fence-Fence Fruit is of no use at all, and only Armament Haki can truly seize the target.
The next second...
Bang!
Allen just raised one hand and grabbed the opponent's right fist with a black glove. At the same time, he said with a smile, "Sorry, this matter is not up to you."
"Miss Hina! Don't be afraid! I'm here to save you!"
"And me!"
With loud shouts, the two idiots Jango and Fullbody fell from the sky. In less than a tenth of a second, they were knocked to the ground by the strong current, and their whole bodies twitched uncontrollably.
"Oh, it's really troublesome. Okay, I'll do as you say." Smoker quickly nodded in agreement after hesitating for a moment.
He understood that Hina was forced to stay. In addition to the necessary confidentiality, he was also equivalent to a hostage.
If you don't do what the other party says, then Hina's life safety will be lost.
