Sengoku: I Have a Bad Feeling About This

However, at present, only he and Vice Admiral Garp are the two top combatants stationed at the Marine Headquarters.

If Garp leaves...

In the entire Marine Headquarters, he was the only one with top-tier combat power.

In the past, this wouldn't have been a big deal. After all, no one would be foolish enough to cause trouble at the Marine Headquarters.

However, things are different now than before.

The world now has a new Moke Pirates.

The Moke Pirates don't just have one lawless captain. Their captains are all equally fond of stirring up trouble.

They were all incredibly arrogant.

What's most frustrating is that those guys are all incredibly strong.

Therefore, if he were to be left alone to guard the Marine Headquarters, he was truly unsure of his position.

Because if Moke knew that he was the only one in charge of the Marine Headquarters, he might very well take him and attack.

After all, this guy is the kind of person who dared to kill even the Five Elders.

Is there anything in this world he wouldn't dare to do?

However, if we don't send anyone...

The situation in North Blue is likely to collapse completely. What will happen then?

The various kingdoms, factions, and pirates of the North Blue all believe that the Navy has been completely contained by the New World.

They had no time to concern themselves with matters in the North Blue.

If this happens, Cavendish's capture of Bastille's branch could become a catalyst for conflict.

North Blue will descend into chaos.

Everyone is targeting the Navy. Even the kingdoms are no exception, since nobody wants to pay a huge tax to the World Government at the same time.

They also need to give the Celestial Dragons a huge amount of Heavenly Tribute.

Wouldn't it be better to keep these valuables in your own hands?

Previously, it was out of necessity. After all, the strength of the World Government and the Navy was undeniable, and no one could truly shake it.

But...

This is the lowest point for World Government and navies in 800 years.

If things go wrong, the consequences could be disastrous.

Therefore, it is precisely at times like these that we must not show weakness. Otherwise, it will not only be North Blue that collapses.

The other three seas will also follow suit.

Especially the West Blue and the South Blue...

Of Four Seas, the only one he could truly trust was the weakest, the East Blue.

"Call..."

Aokiji took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down. Then, he made a decision.

Then, he dialed the number for the Sengoku.

"Brut... Brut..."

Sengoku, the Sengoku from the Holy Land, looked at the Den Den Mushi beside him and it started ringing.

His eyebrows involuntarily twitched.

His expression changed slightly, and he hesitated for a moment.

"Come on! What are you looking at?" Vice Admiral Tsuru asked, somewhat puzzled.

Sengoku gave a wry smile, "To be honest, I'm a little scared now. I'm scared of hearing this Den Den Mushi ring, because every time it rings, it's never anything good."

After saying that, he added, "It seems like it's been like this ever since that guy Moke showed up."

Upon hearing this, Vice Admiral Tsuru He's lips twitched involuntarily.

At the same time, she subconsciously glanced at the Den Den Mushi to the side. Sengoku's words only gave her a bad feeling.

Finally, with a helpless smile, he said, "Hurry up and answer it!"

Sengoku smiled helplessly, "That's true, whether it's good news or bad news, we have to accept it..."

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and answered the call.

The Den Den Mushi immediately transformed into Aokiji's face. "Moshi moshi... This is Aokiji."

Sengoku couldn't help but look at Vice Admiral Tsuru Vice Admiral Tsuru, who in turn looked at Sengoku. Their eyes met, and both of them sensed unease in each other's gazes.

It's Aokiji!!???

The bad feeling in their hearts grew even stronger.

Because Aokiji shouldn't have been given electricity at this time.

But at this point, there were no other options. Sengoku couldn't help but ask, "Tell me, what happened?"

Aokiji recounted the events of the North Blue in detail.

"The Branch 06, one of the three major branches in North Blue, has been taken over by Cavendish, the Supernova from the previous two years?"

"T Bone is missing? Bastille joined Cavendish?"

Sengoku and Vice Admiral Tsuru exclaimed in unison, then exchanged a glance.

I must say, their premonition was incredibly accurate!

And here comes the trouble!

Moreover, both of them are incredibly intelligent. How could they immediately figure out why Aokiji called?

Sengoku: "So, you want me to make the trip?"

He also knew that right now, only Garp and Aokiji remained at Marine Headquarters. It was impossible to send Garp away again... otherwise, Marine Headquarters would be in danger.

"Well..."

The Sengoku couldn't help but sigh.

He was also a former Fleet Admiral, so he naturally understood Aokiji's embarrassment and helplessness at this moment.

To be honest, he really didn't want to go.

He had already withdrawn... but he couldn't very well refuse.

After all, strictly speaking, he was the one who personally handed this mess over to Aokiji.

At that moment, Vice Admiral Tsuru spoke.

"I do have a suggestion... Isn't Zephyr going to take a new batch of trainees on a training expedition soon?"

"Just tell him to change his target. Go to the South Blue..."

"Huh..."

Sengoku's eyes lit up; if it weren't for the crane, he would have completely forgotten about this person.

Not only Sengoku, but even Aokiji on the other end of Den Den Mushi was slightly taken aback. He then couldn't help but laugh, "I understand, I'll call Zephyr right away."

Sengoku said, "Let Tsuru and I talk to Zephyr!"

Vice Admiral Tsuru nodded. "Yes... Zephyr, ever since he became one of the Shichibukai, his personality has become a bit stubborn. Your intervention might... not work. Let Sengoku handle it!"

Upon hearing this, Aokiji looked somewhat embarrassed.

Because, he was the one who gave the order... although he chose this guy because of pressure from all sides.

After all, this is the current situation.

We must fill the Shichibukai as soon as possible, and at the same time, we must ensure that their strength is at the level of the Shichibukai.

But this kind of person...

Where can you find one so easily?

In one year, apart from Boa Hancock, who was a mere nominal Shichibukai else...

This also brought Buggy Basil Hawkins and Urouge, two of the eleven Supernova from the Worst Generation, into the ranks of the Shichibukai.

In addition, he cut off Zephyr's arm.

That pirate who killed many of Zephyr's students... Aiden, the user of the Zoan Ancient Zoan Diamondjaw Dragon Fruit.

This is a veteran powerhouse.

He's been roaming the New World for decades... with a bounty of 1.2 billion. He also possesses Three Types of Haki; otherwise, he wouldn't have had the strength to cut off Zephyr's arm.

In other words, only three of the Shichibukai were confirmed in one year.

The remaining four positions aren't unfilled; rather, they're still under consideration. Although the situation has relaxed the requirements considerably now.

However, it is important to confirm that... these people have no connection with the Moke Pirates or the other two Emperor Level pirate crews.

After all, there's the matter of Moke infiltrating the Shichibukai.

But it was a real slap in the face for the Navy, and a devastating blow at that. He certainly didn't want it to happen a second time...
