Edd War (2)

Two days later, at Marineford, on the turbulent sea, the water parted on both sides, revealing a huge deck, almost ten meters long, speeding along.

At the port, the stationed navy rubbed his eyes, then stood ramrod straight and gave a military salute.

"Rear Admiral General"

"Yes, lock these criminals up."

Ye Chen nodded calmly, and pointed to the seven or eight people on the nail plate. These people were all on the verge of death, with bruises and swelling on their faces. They must have been brutally beaten.

Among them was the Corrupt King, and the rest were pirates, none of whom had a bounty of less than 100 million.

Ye Chen took care of this on his way back to Marineford; otherwise, he would have returned long ago.

The meaning of Ye Chen's last phone call with Sengoku couldn't be clearer: he needed to boost his political achievements, otherwise how could he get promoted? And these were Ye Chen's stepping stones, all of them pirates.

"Yes!" Several marines swallowed hard as they looked at the pirate lying on the deck.

After finishing, Ye Chen flew towards the villa. He wanted to take a good shower first, and then get some sleep.

"This is Abaro Pizarro, the Corrupt King with a bounty of 350 million."

"There are also 230 million dark assassins."

One hundred and ninety-seven million

"They're all great pirates."

Many sailors gasped in shock. If it were any other Rear Admiral, they wouldn't have been able to capture him, as only Marine Vice Admiral could handle those of such rank. But the Rear Admiral...

"Go and inform the higher-ups that these heinous pirates are destined to be imprisoned in the advance for eternity!"

"Yes!"

The news of Ye Chen's return soon reached Kong and the others.

The office was now packed with people, including Sora, Garp, Zephyr, Sengoku, Tsuru, and even Sakazuki, Borsalino, and Kuzan, making the once spacious conference room feel crowded.

"Go and summon Rear Admiral Ye Chen." After hanging up the Den Den Mushi, Sora looked at the generals below and continued discussing the previous matters.

It can be seen that Sakazuki, Borsalino, and Kuzan are now wearing the rank of lieutenant Vice Admiral and their coats, meaning that the three of them have now become Headquarters Vice Admiral.

Judging from their appearance, they had only recently become Vice Admiral, and their experiences over the past few years had made them more powerful and composed.

A moment later, Ye Chen walked in with a creak of the door.

Looking at the somber atmosphere in the conference room, Ye Chen was slightly taken aback, because he hadn't expected so many people to be there. Judging from the situation, something major must have happened.

"They're here!"

At the head of the table, Kong looked at Ye Chen and said something, while the eyes of the others also focused on Ye Chen. Among them, Zephyr and others smiled at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen nodded, casually found a seat at the back, and sat down, startling a navy officer next to him.

"Rear Admiral, where is your position?" The navy officer asked cautiously, pointing to the spot next to Kuzan, indicating that Ye Chen should go there.

"I am only Rear Admiral. You may continue your discussion."

After saying this, Ye Chen fell silent, signaling everyone to continue the discussion.

Ye Chen's actions made everyone in the room feel comfortable.

"Then let's continue the meeting. Ever since Red the Aloof was imprisoned in Impel Down, the New World has been somewhat turbulent. We recently received news that the Flying Pirates are gathering pirate crews and will Roger Pirates in the Edd War. If the two sides unite, it will be a huge threat to our Navy."

An unprecedented solemnity filled the air, and the voice was low and deep.

At that moment, a naval officer handed Ye Chen a document.

Ye Chen listened silently while looking at the documents.

"We must follow up on this matter. If the two sides join forces, the consequences will be unimaginable!"

Sengoku spoke up immediately, saying that if Roger and Golden Lion really joined forces, then their navy would be unable to move an inch!

"This matter must be taken very seriously. We must break their alliance whenever we have the chance." Tsuru's face was grave. Perhaps they were overthinking it, but just in case, their navy had to take action.

"Even if there's only a one in ten million chance, we absolutely cannot let it happen. Garp, Sengoku, you two will go to the New World this time. Act according to the circumstances. Although the chances of the two uniting are extremely slim, we cannot let our guard down."

After much discussion, Kong finally made a decision: to send two of the Navy's top combat forces away at once.

"Zephyr, your mission is to keep a close eye on the Whitebeard Pirates. Two overlords have already pushed things beyond our control. If all three of them get together, whether it's good or bad, it will endanger our Navy. We absolutely cannot take the risk!"

"The greatest balance is achieved when all three parties are united. Only when two parties are united can conflict occur. It would be most beneficial for the Navy if the Roger Pirates and the Flying Pirates clashed!" Tsuru's eyes gleamed.

"This matter has both advantages and disadvantages, and it all depends on the intervention of the Whitebeard Pirates. Therefore, Zephyr, you will lead two Buster Call warships and make it difficult for Whitebeard to interfere in the Edd War. Also, if Whitebeard does not take any action, do not start a conflict. You make the decision yourself."

Two Buster Call warships are equivalent to ten top-tier behemoth warships. Their cannon fire alone could easily destroy an island, not to mention the elite navy deployed on board.

Furthermore, with Zephyr leading the way, even in this situation, Sora instructed Zephyr not to act rashly, but to linger, because both Sora and Zephyr knew how terrifying Whitebeard was.

If Whitebeard hadn't lacked ambition, Roger might never have had a chance.

Everyone has different dreams, so their pursuits are also different.

Ultimately, the meeting lasted for almost an hour, and this time, the Navy was on high alert, fully vigilant in all aspects.

"You four, wait a minute."

Just as Ye Chen was about to leave, he was stopped by Sora, along with Sakazuki and the other two.

First, Kong looked at Ye Chen.

"You did well this time. With pirates like the Corrupt King around, you're already qualified to be Vice Admiral. But things are urgent now, and I'm afraid it will have to be postponed."

"It's nothing!" Ye Chen said expressionlessly, not caring much. After all, even though he was now Rear Admiral, his status was almost the same as that of Vice Admiral; the only difference was the title!

"Is your eye healed?" Zephyr asked from the side.

Ye Chen simply shook his head.

"It seems ordinary medical techniques won't be able to cure him; only Devil Fruit can restore him," Tsuru said.

"I'm not too concerned, we'll figure something out later!" Ye Chen smiled and shrugged.

"Haha, you're just my type! What man doesn't have a few scars on his body?" Garp said, crunching a donut on the side.

"Old man, shut up." Crane rolled her eyes. Was that even human language?

"This time, all four of you will come along!" Kong, in his high position, pondered for a moment before making his decision.

"Yes!"

"There's no time to lose, let's get started! All hearts..."
