Marine Headquarters.
Sengoku's office.
Not long before, the Marines had received deployment orders from the World Government, ordering all Admirals and elite Vice Admirals to God Valley under the pretext of [protecting the Celestial Dragons].
Garp sat on the sofa against the wall, holding a bag of Senbei in one hand and a piece he had just bitten into in the other.
