Escape and Pursuit!
Patrick Redfield.
Legend has it that he was once a nobleman of a certain kingdom, and he also had a great fondness for wearing red clothes.
Therefore, he was initially known as the 'Red Earl' on the Grand Line.
Later, people noticed that this person, despite being extremely powerful, not only did not form a One Piece crew or any kind of force, but he didn't even have a single follower.
He always keeps to himself, no matter where he is.
Regardless of who the opponent is or how many there are, he fights alone and moves freely and gracefully.
Now everyone realized that this was a top-tier expert with an extremely arrogant personality, who had reached the Bleach of Great Swordsman.
Therefore, they gave him an even more prestigious title.
Red the Aloof!
The bounty is a whopping 3.355 billion Beli!
Imu hadn't really noticed this person before; Del's presence was simply too weak.
He doesn't really cause much trouble, so the World Government and the Marine Headquarters don't pay much attention to him.
What was needed now was a powerful individual who was strong enough, fast enough, and yet without any special abilities, Imu thought of him.
They are top-tier combatants, after all. Let's recruit them first, no matter what.
Otherwise, it would be a shameful waste to leave such a person in obscurity unused.
As for his personality, Imu felt that he didn't need to change anything, as long as he was willing to obey orders.
Besides, doesn't CIPHER POL also have Brook?
Brook with Redfield is similar to Luffy's Luffy with Shanks in the future; having him act as a persuader seems like a sure thing.

In the Giant World, a large biplane is steadily flying under the blue sky, quickly passing by one Bai Yun after another.
"We're almost at the exchange dock. When you get back, you must remind Queen Historia again not to resist the orders of those Otherworld beings. You've already seen the reason with your own eyes."
Dressed in all black, Eren's calm gaze swept across the faces of Mikasa, Levi, and the others.
So you've been lying to us all along.
Levi narrowed his eyes, a dangerous glint in them.
"Yes, what I said before about the enemy being unable to withstand the 'Rumbling' was a lie. The truth is that the enemy is too powerful. No matter what, we are no match for them. In the end, we will be defeated, enslaved, and I will die."
At this point, Eren no longer concealed these matters, but as soon as he uttered his last word, Levi grabbed his neck and slammed him heavily against the surface of the cockpit behind him with a bang.
"Levi!"
Mikasa and the others' expressions changed drastically, but Levi completely ignored their pleas, coldly staring into Eren's eyes and asking in a low voice, "What's the reason?"
"Since the outcome cannot be changed, and since our world will ultimately be enslaved, why not fight back?"
Eren's words angered another central officer of the New Eldian Empire, who Wrath shouted, "Do you know how many people will die? There are tens of millions of troops from various countries there!"
"I am giving them a chance, a chance to die fighting for freedom."
Eren looked at Levi without turning his head, his tone remaining completely calm.
"Isn't this at least better than being enslaved without resistance, being killed unarmed, and watching helplessly as loved ones are tortured to death?"
After listening, Levi slowly released his grip on his neck and then asked, "Then why should we give up resisting?"
"Because we are Eldians, I hope you can live as long as possible if you can. As for your contribution to this world, I will take care of that myself."
Everyone understood what Eren meant, which caused a silence to fall over the cabin.
Eren believed that his own Titan Power and the Rumbling were sufficient to provide assistance and strength to the New Eldian Empire in this World Alliance, without the need for other Eldians to participate in the war and make sacrifices.
"So what are you going to do next?" Mikasa asked.
"Go to the other side of this planet and survive!"
Eren looked out at the Bai Yun through the small round window. "As long as I live, the Rumbling will not stop. It's a pity I only have less than a year left to live."
Because of his ability to 'Future Sight,' he had already made all the necessary preparations, such as arranging connecting flights in the countries along the route.
He will then live in the sky for a very long time.
"Eren, I want to go with you!"
Mikasa spoke without hesitation, her eyes filled with unwavering determination. Eren, unsurprised, smiled and said, "Yes, I hope to be with you in our final moments."
Are you sure those Otherworld beings won't wipe us out?
Just as the biplane began its descent, Levi asked his last question.
"Yes, I'm sure. In the future scenes I saw, the Eldians were mining Iceburst Stone and planting Black Gold Bamboo. They had no freedom and no smiles, but at least most of them were alive."
Eren said softly, his eyes dim.
"Levi, if possible, take the Queen and leave Paradis Island as soon as possible. Find a secluded place deep in the mountains and forests to live in seclusion; perhaps that way they can live more comfortably."
He was also desperate. The World Government was just too powerful, far too powerful. He had seen many 'futures,' but none of them could prevent the outcome of being conquered and enslaved.
Twenty minutes later.
The biplane, refueled, took off again from the port of call, its next mission to carry Eren and Mikasa to South America on the other side of the world.
Because that's the place furthest from the Marley!

The war on the peninsula at the Medium Star Gate is still ongoing. Although the World Allied Forces is suffering repeated defeats, it is still a force of tens of millions, and it will take some time before it is completely defeated.
The key issue is that the World Government has given the World Allied Forces no hope of surrendering whatsoever, completely blocking off the front, middle, and rear sections, clearly demonstrating its intention to exterminate them all.
This naturally ignited a bloodlust in everyone, with everyone from top to bottom prepared for a fight to the death.
Besides.
They still have the 'Rumbling'. If they persevere, these damned Otherworld monsters will eventually be trampled into mud by countless Titans!
Meanwhile, in the High Command conference room at the Sea Star Headquarters.
Sengoku, Tsuru, Zephyr, and the others were still thinking about how to capture Eren, but the numerous difficulties they faced were really giving them a headache. Just then, the Den Den Mushi on the table rang.
The Minister Kong picked up the phone, and after a brief conversation, he showed a surprised expression. After ending the call, he looked at the other four people with a strange expression.
"The Five Elders have already devised a plan to capture Eren Yeager. The person in charge is on his way and has requested that we prepare an aircraft for the pursuit."
"What?"
"What plan?"
Who is the executor?
Sengoku, Tsuru, Raymond, Zephyr, and the others all asked questions, their faces showing various expressions of surprise.
"Patrick Redfield!"
