Sengoku Is About to Step Down as Fleet Admiral

Meanwhile, at the Marine Headquarters.

Compared to the tens of millions of people outside the world who were shocked by this unprecedented battle.

Can be a party involved.

Marineford is much quieter here.

Numerous naval personnel were mobilized to manage the vast scene and clean up the bloodied corpses.

Marineford was once thriving.

Now it resembles a living hell, with ruins and broken walls that are unbearable to look at.

Inside the Fleet Admiral's office.

Sengoku sat quietly in the room.

His gaze swept over Garp, Tsuru, Akainu, and the others.

His eyes were dim, and his expression was weary.

At that moment, he seemed to have aged more than ten years.

Sengoku waved his hand and said, "Don't gather here anymore, everyone disperse!"

Seeing the state of the Sengoku period...

To say what's the most painful thing...

No one could surpass Garp.

On one side is his grandson, and on the other side is his good friend.

Regarding the Sengoku.

Garp felt deeply indebted.

After Akainu, Kizaru, Tsuru, and the others left.

Garp walked step by step to Sengoku's side and asked, "Sengoku, are you alright?"

Sengoku, who had been keeping his eyes closed, slightly opened them. He glanced at Garp and said, "Why... why aren't you leaving yet?"

Garp hesitated for a moment before saying, "I'm sorry for Marineford War."

Nowadays.

All the immense pressure was concentrated on Sengoku.

The defeat at Marineford War.

As the Fleet Admiral, Sengoku cannot escape blame.

He even became the culprit and a sinner of the Navy with the help of the Five Elders.

Ultimately...

Garp also bears some responsibility.

"Feel sorry?"

Upon hearing this, Sengoku shook his head bitterly. "Is it too late to apologize now?"

Garp lowered his head and finally couldn't help but sigh.

yes.

It's too late.

Since Roger ushered in the Great Pirate Era...

The influx of pirates into the Grand Line has significantly increased the pressure on the Navy.

Whether it's the Four Seas, Paradise, or New World.

Almost everyone is frantically replenishing their troops.

Even so.

The number of pirates setting sail each year far exceeds the navy's estimates.

There are even signs that it is becoming uncontrollable.

And it is precisely at this crucial juncture that...

The more the Sengoku, the more they realized that their navy needed to do something!

Let it develop as it will.

Their absolute dominance over the seas will be threatened in the future.

Meanwhile, the Whitebeard Pirates were nearing the end of their lives.

They became their primary target.

But we want to target it.

How easy is that?

The Four Emperors.

That's a behemoth of the New World.

Even the navy, which is known as the number one maritime power.

Everything must be handled with utmost care before war breaks out!

Coincidentally...

Just as Sengoku was pondering how to declare war on the Whitebeard Pirates...

Their Second Division Commander, Ace, has fallen into their hands.

The instant I saw Ace.

The Sengoku was clear.

This is a golden opportunity for their navy to wipe out the Four Emperors in one fell swoop.

to this end.

The Sengoku period was a time in which they planned and strategized.

What a pity.

No one expected it.

He was just a division commander recently recruited by the Whitebeard Pirates.

This shattered all his plans into nothingness.

As a result, the navy has become a laughing stock, ridiculed for its futile efforts to stop a chariot.

Besides cleaning up the huge mess at Marineford.

There was also external public opinion pressure, as well as pressure from the Five Elders.

Especially the Five Elders ' comment. "It's time to change the position of Fleet Admiral!"

Despite the myriad frustrations of the Sengoku.

In the end, I could only respond with one word.

Good!

On the other side.

On the Moby Dick.

While the Navy was cleaning up the mess at Marineford.

They were also cleaning up the mess on their own ship.

This battle.

Not only did the navy suffer huge losses.

Their Whitebeard Pirates also suffered heavy losses.

Especially when you see the shocking casualty figures.

A deep silence fell over everyone in the Whitebeard Pirates.

As the head of the family.

Whitebeard was also deeply saddened.

He led them to Marineford.

Unfortunately.

However, he did not bring them back himself.

That saying really came true.

war.

There are no winners, only losers!

Fortunately...

Today, no less.

Lin Yan, whom they longed for.

The Moby Dick has returned!

I saw Lin Yan return.

The captains of the various squads showed expressions of delight.

Even the worry on the Whitebeard's face had dissipated considerably!

"Lin, you're back?"

Marco, Jozu, Vista, and others rushed forward.

Are you alright?

Yixiao, Ryokugyu, Zephyr, and the others also hurriedly asked.

Since Lin Yan stayed behind alone.

Their worries never ceased.

Lin Yan has now returned safely.

Their hearts, which had been hanging in suspense, could finally be put at ease.

Faced with everyone's concern.

Lin Yan shook her head.

He indicated that he was fine.

At the same time, he immediately looked at Whitebeard and asked about the casualties of their pirate crew.

But.

When Lin Yan heard this series of shocking numbers...

He also fell silent.

Please note.

This was even after he led a large number of prisoners to Marineford to fight, relieving the Whitebeard Pirates of a huge amount of pressure.

If it weren't for the prisoners joining in...

Who knows what the casualties will be like?

"By the way, what about the prisoners?"

Lin Yan asked.

"They are currently aboard our Moby Dick."

Marco answered from the side.

The prisoners were not members of the Whitebeard Pirates, after all.

In this respect.

Lin Yan had to settle them in.

As promised to them before.

After the Marineford War.

The two sides parted ways.

But.

The current situation.

This forced Lin Yan to reconsider her choice.

Please note.

Although the navy suffered heavy losses, its foundation was not damaged.

not to mention.

Even with many soldiers missing.

With a simple call to arms, they could quickly restore most of their elite forces through World Military Draft.

But the Whitebeard Pirates were different.

This battle.

It has almost exhausted its resources.

The crew members were either dead or wounded.

If handled improperly...

They might even fall out of the ranks of the New World's maritime emperors.

And the goal is to recover one's energy as quickly as possible.

To make up for the lack of manpower.

This group of people were brought out of Impel Down.

That's definitely the best choice!

This thought came to mind.

Lin Yan's gaze swept over Buggy, Crocodile, Jinbe, and the other Supernovas and prisoners.
