"Lord Moria, have you been living here since Marine Headquarters?"
In Shichibukai's dormitory, Perona, who was holding a red umbrella and floating behind Moria, looked around and muttered angrily, "The Navy is so stingy that they let Lord Moria live in a place like this."
Absalom, who followed him into the dormitory, looked around and agreed, "It's indeed a bit small, especially this bed. It's difficult to turn over!"
"Hehehehehe, it's not easy to stay alive~"
Moria walked to the window and sat down, and said in a serious tone, "Next, I will always follow Akira Marshal, and you must also restrain yourself and obey the navy's arrangements. If nothing else happens, we may all be incorporated into the navy by Akira Marshal, which means that we will break away from the identity of pirates and become Akira Marshal's navy!"
"Don't feel lost, it's our honor to follow Akira Marshal!"
"From entering the headquarters to coming back from East Blue this time, I don't know what Crocodile and others think, but I understand. The next Grand Line will have only one overlord, and that is the navy led by Akira Marshal."
Hearing this, Perona laughed, "Hahahaha... As long as I can follow Lord Moria, it doesn't matter to me whether I become a pirate or a navy."
Moria looked sideways at Perona and warned like an old father, "Perona, you can no longer be as willful on Marine Headquarters as you were on Thriller Bark. I could protect you before, but now I, like you, must abide by the navy's rules and regulations!"
"I got it~" Perona nodded obediently. Then, she floated in front of Moria and asked curiously, "Lord Moria, what kind of man is that Navy Marshal? Is he cute?"
"Is... cute?" Moria widened his eyes and said anxiously, "Dear girl, you can't use the word cute to describe the marshal! He is the iron-blooded marshal who monopolizes the power of the navy and is so strong and domineering that even the world government has to make concessions. Not to mention now. , even if you push it forward five hundred years, you won't be able to find anyone who can compare with him! Otherwise, do you think Crocodile, the ambitious man, Doflamingo, the Tenyasha who drags him to the sky, and Hawkeye, who has always gone his own way, will bow to him?"
"The most important thing is that when he launched the mutiny, he used various means to make Three Admirals loyal to him. Marine Headquarters regarded him as the only leader. How would you describe such a person as cute?"
Perona seemed to understand. He blinked his big eyes and nodded. "It sounds very powerful. I will go and play with him tomorrow."
"????"
Moria's facial muscles twitched wildly, and a series of question marks appeared on his head.
Next door room--
Crocodile sat upright on the bed with a cigar in his mouth, his eyes flickering over the Baroque Works members standing neatly across from him, and finally his eyes rested on the little girl sitting on the floor, chewing senbei in her mouth.
The little girl is full of childishness, with long dark red hair in double ponytails, a pair of beautiful big eyes, and a pink wide-brimmed hat, making her look much cuter.
Ms. Golden Week, whose real name is Marianne, has the ability to control other people's emotions through color palette paint. Although she has just turned ten, due to her almost incomprehensible ability, Crocodile brought her from Beihai to Grand Line.
Marianne was not nervous because he was brought to Marine Headquarters, and chewed the senbei leisurely.
"Crocodile, Baroque Works, are they disbanded?"
Seeing Crocodile just smoking a cigar, a strong man standing on the edge frowned and said slowly, "We have all watched the live broadcast of Whitebeard Jr.'s execution. We know the situation at that time. If you don't surrender to Navy Marshal, you will probably become the next Jaz, so I believe everyone will understand your choice at that time."
"Of course, we also believe that there will definitely be other arrangements in the future."
Daz·Daz Bones, the strongest commander of Baroque Works, codenamed Mr.1, Paramecia quickly killed Devil Fruit User. He was once the owner of West Blue The famous killer, half a year ago, after learning that the person who recruited him was Crocodile, who had once challenged World's Strongest Man but was defeated gloriously, he resolutely left West Blue to join Baroque Works.
Hearing this, Crocodile narrowed his eyes slightly and once again glanced at Daz Bones, Marianne and others.
Because Baroque Works has just been established less than half a year ago, apart from him and Nico Robin, there are only five people in total. They are Marianne code-named Ms. Golden Week, Daz Bones code-named Mr1, and Daz Bones's partner Miss Doublefinger.
Miss Doublefinger's real name is Sarah, and Devil Fruit User is a tall and sexy woman with afro hair!
Followed by Mr2 Pen·Sui Sui, real name Bon Clay, imitation Devil Fruit User.
When Crocodile glanced at Bon Clay, his facial muscles twitched slightly. Because at this time Bon Clay was looking at him intently. He was obviously a very strong man., but he was wearing a swan ballet costume and strange heavy makeup. If it weren't for the fact that he had imitated Devil Fruit User, he wouldn't have let Bon Clay join Baroque Works if he was killed.
After exhaling a puff of smoke, Crocodile immediately looked away from Bon Clay and looked at Mr3.
However, when he saw Mr3, he shook his head again and looked away.
Because Mr3 looked weak as if he had taken some green food, and he had a "3" shaped penis on his head, which could easily trigger other people's obsessive-compulsive disorder to help him remove it.
After a brief silence, Crocodile took a deep puff of his cigar, then stood up and got straight to the point. "Baroque Works has been disbanded. I will no longer be your president, and you will no longer need to use the code name of the work company. Of course, if you are willing to continue to follow me, I believe Akira Marshal will allow you to stay with me."
"No matter how much you say, it's useless!"
After a slight pause, Crocodile glanced at the people present again, and then said, "There is only one thing I can tell you. Next Akira Marshal will set up a special force to look for Laugh Tale. If my inference is correct, the members of this special force will be selected from the subordinates of Baroque Works, Donquixote Family and Moria!"
"As for the captain, he will be selected from the former Shichibukai members."
When they heard that the Navy was going to set up a special unit to find Laugh Tale, everyone present opened their eyes.
For the pirates of Grand Line, almost no one can resist the temptation of Laugh Tale.
At the same time.
Following Ain and Akira into Fleet Admiral's Office, Nico Robin's heartbeat inexplicably accelerated. Especially when she saw Akira walking to the desk and sitting down, her heart was in her throat.
It's not that she is timid, but that she has a special status. At this time, she is in Fleet Admiral's Office, the navy that once launched Buster Call against her hometown Ohara.
You know, she was only eight years old when her hometown was reduced to a sea of flames by Buster Call's artillery fire.
It was also at that time that she experienced life and death and the suffering of blood and fire at a young age. Deep in her heart, she has always had an indelible fear of the Navy, especially the CP9 agents who have never given up on arresting her over the years.
If it weren't for reading the news and knowing that the man before her came to power through mutiny and forced World Government to sign the treaty, she would never have taken the risk to come, because for her who was offered a reward of 79 million by World Government when she was eight years old, following Marine Vice Admiral to Marineford in such a cooperative manner was tantamount to surrendering herself into a trap.
Akira, who was sitting at the desk, dug out a file from the drawer, then looked up at Nico Robin, who was standing opposite and trying to control his emotions so as not to appear nervous. With a warm smile on his face, he said calmly, "This is your file and the reward. Of course, this is only one copy of Marine Headquarters, and there is another one in CP9 Chief In the hands of Spandam. However, because Spandam had some grudges with me, World Government pulled him out to take the blame and execute him in order to calm the incident. This means that as long as you burn this file, not only will your reward disappear, but the unfounded charges against you will also disappear!"
Without waiting for Robin to react, Akira picked up the lighter, lit it, and then threw it into the unused brazier next to it.
She didn't expect Akira to burn the files so simply. Robin opened her beautiful eyes unexpectedly. It wasn't until the files burned to ashes that she recovered her mind and tentatively asked, "Akira Marshal, what does this mean?"
"I need your talent and learning!"
Akira did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point. "When the New World situation calms down, I will form a special force to find Laugh Tale. To find Laugh Tale, we need people who can read the historical characters on the road sign Poneglyph."
"I'm not asking for your opinion, but letting you know what to do next and be prepared for it!"
"That's it, please step back first."
Having said this, Akira picked up a document on the desk and opened it, "Ain, arrange a separate dormitory for Robin."
"Yes."
Ain nodded in agreement and said to Robin, "Follow me."
Robin glanced at the file that was burned to ashes with a complicated expression. Although she had a lot to say, when she saw that Akira was already flipping through the files, she did not dare to disturb her and followed Ain in silence and turned around and walked out.
As soon as I walked out of the office door, the voice of Akira suddenly came from behind.
"Robin, don't think too much."
"No one is ever alone in the world."
"As long as you stay at Marineford with peace of mind, this will be your safest harbor."
The sudden words were like thunder exploding in Robin's ears, making her freeze on the spot.
After being stunned for several seconds, Robin recovered his mind and looked at the young Marshal who was sitting at the desk with wide eyes in disbelief. The words "No one is always alone in the world" kept echoing in his ears.
The reason why she has been so strong until now is because a close friend who tried his best to save her once said this to her, and made her believe that she would definitely find a partner willing to protect her.
After so many years, she never expected to hear someone say these words to her again.
The most important thing is that this person is Marine Headquarters Marshal.
