New World, Flying Pirate Fleet chassis Floating Island.
When everyone heard Takenaka Kaguya's words, their faces showed expressions of surprise.
Originally they thought Takenaka Kaguya was making a fuss out of a molehill. After all, it was just a Paramecia Devil Fruit, and it was not worth such a big fuss.
However, what I didn't expect was that Paramecia Gomu Gomu no Mi was actually a "god"-level fruit, and it was owned by Joey Boy, Celestial Dragons's most powerful enemy.
"Boss, since World Government knows that Gomu Gomu no Mi is a god-level fruit, then based on their sphere of influence, they must have gotten this Devil Fruit long ago, right?" Shiki the Golden Lion asked with a frown.
In this sea, they are not even afraid of World Government, but they know very well that World Government, which has ruled the world for eight hundred years, is not comparable to their Akatsuki, whether it is the intelligence system or the number of strong people.
"Yes, boss, Golden Lion is right. Could it be that this Devil Fruit has been collected by World Government?" Crocodile also asked worriedly.
"Haha, no, it's impossible for World Government to get Gomu Gomu no Mi." Takenaka Kaguya heard this and said very confidently.
"Boss, is there any hidden secret in this?" Bullet asked immediately.
"Yes, Gomu Gomu no Mi is a very special Devil Fruit. For eight hundred years, World Government has never forgotten to recycle Gomu Gomu no Mi, but somehow, Gomu Gomu no Mi seems to have its own will, always making World Government return without success.
So, you don't have to worry about Gomu Gomu no Mi having been recycled." Takenaka Kaguya smiled and nodded.
If he remembers correctly, this Gomu Gomu no Mi will be found by Red-Haired Shanks soon, and then taken to East Blue Foosha Village, and eventually eaten by Child of Prophecy Monkey D. Luffy.
It is clearly stated in the original work of One Piece that no matter which era, World Government has been trying to recover Gomu Gomu no Mi, but has never succeeded. This has been the case for 800 years.
The latest appearance of Gomu Gomu no Mi was when he was being escorted by World Government's spy organization CP9, and was snatched away by a pirate group led by Red-Haired Shanks who had not yet become Four Emperors. Foosha Village was accidentally eaten by Luffy as fruit.
Therefore, if you want to get Gomu Gomu no Mi, the best way is to keep an eye on Iron Wall Pirates.
However, he couldn't make it too obvious. He immediately looked at a few people and asked, "Which of you will lead the search for Devil Fruit?"
In its opinion, no matter whether it is Golden Lion, Bullet or Crocodile's current strength, there should be no problem in dealing with Red-Haired Shanks and Iron Wall Pirates who have not yet fully grown up.
However, to be on the safe side, he will send two members of God's Knights who were resurrected by him to carry out this mission.
The three of you looked at me, and I looked at you. Finally, Crocodile stood up and said, "Boss, how about I go? I just received a message that there seems to be a terrorist weapon hidden in Alabasta that can destroy World Government.
Even though I don't know whether this information is true or false, I want to take a look."
"Haha, you are talking about Dark King, one of the three taboo weapons!" Takenaka Kaguya chuckled and said easily.
"Ah? Boss, do you know Alabasta's secret?" Crocodile was extremely surprised. He was not sure yet. He didn't expect that his boss actually knew about it.
"Well, in the early years when I was still working as Marine Admiral, I knew something by chance.
In addition, Alabasta Kingdom is different from other World Government Member States. Their ancestor is one of the twenty powerful Celestial Dragons families eight hundred years ago, Nefertari·D·Lily.
At the same time, she was also the queen of the Alabasta Kingdom 800 years ago, and together with 19 other kings created the current World Government.
However, what is surprising is that after the formation of World Government, she did not stay in Mary Geoise as Celestial Dragons, but returned to the motherland to continue the name of Nefertari." Takenaka Kaguya nodded and explained.
"D? The big man who created World Government actually has D in his name?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Golden Lion on the side immediately said in great surprise.
When he was a cadre at Rocks Pirates, he learned many secrets from Rocks, including Will of D.
According to the information known to Golden Lion, this group was introduced as the "natural enemies of God", implying that there is some kind of antagonistic relationship between them and World Government.
Moreover, the members of Will of D, regardless of their personalities and backgrounds, have had an imperial temperament and powerful Haki since birth. This trait allows them to play an important role in the story and promote the development of important things.
Regarding the secret of Will of D, Rocks's explanation at the time was that they hid a powerful force that could threaten Celestial Dragons and World Government.
In addition, when Golden Lion was at God Valley, he once heard Roger reveal that World Government was extremely vigilant and suppressed Will of D.
Therefore, he was surprised that among the twenty kings who created World Government eight hundred years ago, there was actually a person from Will of D.
"Haha, what's so strange, Will of D is not a monolith, just like today's Celestial Dragons, there are no traitors, right?
For example, in the past few years, Celestial Dragons, Donquixote·Saint Homing, he was the head of the Donquixote Family. Because he couldn't stand Celestial Dragons's behavior, he finally left Mary Geoise with his family.
Unfortunately, he eventually died in the hands of his son Donquixote·Doflamingo.
In addition, few people know the secret of Will of D. You must have heard it from Rocks, right?
In fact, most of the members of Will of D, such as Rocks, such as Gol·D·Roger, including Hero of the Marines Monkey·D·Garp, and his son Monkey·D·Dragon, they are all very dissatisfied with World Government.
Moreover, the death of Roger and the information he left behind, as well as One Piece, which all pirates are now flocking to, point to a bigger secret: the confrontation between Will of D and World Government, and the power or information they possess that can change the world.
Overall, the secret of Will of D is not just the letter "D" in their name, but the profound meaning and power behind this letter.
This group plays an important role in overthrowing the rule of World Government, and their existence and actions will also have a major impact on the fate of the world." Takenaka Kaguya explained with a smile.
"Hey, so this is Will of D? Hey, boss, I remember that on Whitebeard Pirates, there seems to be a kid named Will of D, who seems to be called Teach?" Bullet took a breath, and a name suddenly appeared in his mind, and he immediately said to Takenaka Kaguya.
"Well, I am quite concerned about the people in Will of D. The kid on the Whitebeard ship is named Marshall D. Teach.
That kid is not simple. I am sure that he will become a key figure in causing Whitebeard to be destroyed every day. Moreover, that kid has ambition hidden in his eyes and will not be a peaceful guy.
It's a pity that I reminded Whitebeard before, but he didn't listen, so let him go." Takenaka Kaguya nodded and smiled.
When he went to rescue Crocodile, he specifically used Conqueror's Haki to clear the area, wanting to remind Whitebeard.
However, Whitebeard always has the concept of family in his heart. For him, as long as it is a family member he recognizes, he will trust and protect him unconditionally.
"Then Whitebeard, that guy is really getting more and more stubborn as he gets older. He doesn't even want to write what you said, boss!" Shiki the Golden Lion said happily.
"Maybe this is the strangeness of fate!
Whitebeard saved my life back then, so I have already reminded him.
It's a pity that he doesn't believe it, so let him go.
As long as he returns the two favors owed to him before he dies, it will be fine.
Okay, without further ado, since Crocodile you accept this task, go ahead.
In addition, the organization will try its best to provide you with clues about Gomu Gomu no Mi, and try to get Gomu Gomu no Mi by then.
As for Alabasta and Dark King, you can check it if you want, but please pay attention to safety.
Now you are a big pirate with a bounty of 1.26 billion. A mission like yours appeared in the first half of Grand Line. Once discovered, it will definitely lead to pursuit by the navy and World Government.
I don't want to hear about you being imprisoned in Impel Down or being publicly executed." Takenaka Kaguya said with a grin at the end.
"Hahaha, boss, don't worry.
If it were somewhere else, maybe I would still be afraid of the Navy and World Government.
But Alabasta is in a desert area. With my current ability to develop Suna Suna no Mi and the ninjutsu you gave me, boss, I believe that even Whitebeard can defeat him." Crocodile said very confidently.
In his opinion, living in the desert, as long as he didn't encounter an invincible pervert like his boss, he would be sure to win in a single battle.
As for the trash in the navy, he would not take it seriously at all.
"Be careful when sailing for thousands of years. There are many cases of capsizing in the gutter." Takenaka Kaguya reminded.
"Don't worry, boss." Crocodile assured.
Seeing him like this, Takenaka Kaguya smiled and said nothing. Although Crocodile's strength was already at the bottom of the Admiral level, with the desert terrain, even the navy's top Admiral combat power could not do anything to him.
No matter what, he will never be defeated by Monkey D. Luffy who has the aura of the protagonist like in the original work, right?
If that were the case, Crocodile might as well buy a rope and hang himself.
"Well, you clean up and come out tomorrow.
In addition, let Number 6 and Number 7 follow you secretly. As long as there is a message from Gomu Gomu no Mi, the three of you will act together and it should be foolproof!" Takenaka Kaguya nodded and arranged.
"Um, boss, in a place like Paradise, are you still worried that with my strength, I won't be able to get Gomu Gomu no Mi?" Crocodile said somewhat speechlessly.
It's not that he is too arrogant, it's that in a place like Paradise, there really aren't many strong people.
As long as you pay attention to the long-established existence on the sea, he can basically walk sideways.
"Gomu Gomu no Mi is of great importance, but it is just a defensive measure.
You can rely on your own strength to fight for it. If you really want to fail, Number 6 and Number 7 will just cooperate with you to take action." Takenaka Kaguya insisted.
"Okay, I understand, boss." Crocodile reluctantly agreed.
"It's getting late, let's all rest."
After saying that, Takenaka Kaguya flashed and disappeared in an instant.
On the other side, he had just returned to his Chinese-style Courtyard, washed up under the service of the maid, and then returned to the bedroom.
"Haha."
At this moment, seeing someone clearly under the quilt, he couldn't help but laugh.
He was used to this situation, so he immediately walked over, took off his clothes, then lifted the quilt and lay down.
In an instant, two octopuses immediately hugged him, and the three of them began to discuss life.
The moon was so ashamed that she hid in the crowd. People in Chinese-style Courtyard and the nearby rooms all took out the cotton that had been prepared and plugged their ears.
The comfortable life lasted for a month. On this day, Takenaka Kaguya was drinking tea when he saw Rouge coming over. He bowed respectfully and said, "Lord Takenaka, Fisher Tiger is coming over."
"Well, go and invite him in." Takenaka Kaguya nodded.
"Yes."
Rouge bowed respectfully and left. Looking at her graceful back, Takenaka Kaguya couldn't help but mutter to himself, "I finally understand why everyone calls Cao a thief, and everyone wants to be a Cao thief."
She is indeed a Roger woman, both in figure and appearance, she is first-class.
However, he has no habit of forcing others, so let her do it.
Not long after, Fisher Tiger walked in.
Looking at Fisher Tiger who was wearing a turban, thick curly hair, a wide mouth, a beard, and a little stubble on his upper lip. The sun symbol representing "Sun Pirates" was located in the center of his chest. After sensing that his body had recovered, Takenaka Kaguya nodded with satisfaction and said, "Fisher Tiger, you are here."
"Lord Takenaka, I want to go back to Fish-Man Island and complete your previous instructions." Fisher Tiger saluted respectfully.
"Get up, your injuries are completely healed and your body is well.
Okay, let's go. I heard that there is a guy named Jinbe who is pretty good. If he is willing, you can bring him over with you.
In addition, I have asked Yixiao to prepare the Akatsuki flag you want. In addition, Golden Lion and Yixiao are also going to send the others back together, so just go with them and there will be someone to look after you on the way." Takenaka Kaguya nodded and smiled.
It is true that Fisher Tiger was so unlucky in the original work that he actually met that guy Kizaru and ended up losing too much blood. Fisher Tiger was unwilling to take human blood, so he could only bleed to death.
"Okay, Lord Takenaka, everything is up to you.
By the way, there is one more thing. Master Golden Lion asked me to come over and tell you that One Piece's right wrist, Dark King Silbaz Rayleigh, is here, saying he wants to take away Gorgon Sisters from Amazon Lily Island!"
