Mihawk's decision surprised Lin Yuan. He didn't expect him to agree so easily, even though he had prepared many ideas but didn't have a chance to share them.
"No, you're just going to reconsider and make a decision that's too simple!"
Mihawk's lips twitched, and he glared fiercely at Lin Yuan.
"What's there to think about? Didn't you invite me?"
Lin Yuan was taken aback for a moment, then laughed.
"Haha, that's true. But you won't regret your decision, since the World Government will soon be taking action against you Shichibukai."
A hint of surprise flashed in Mihawk's eyes as he awaited Lin Yuan's explanation.
Lin Yuan no longer concealed his thoughts and revealed them to Lin Yuan.
"Ahem, the establishment of the Shichibukai was originally intended to counter the Five Emperors, but you have done absolutely nothing, and Doflamingo has also been killed by me. The abolition of the Shichibukai is inevitable."
Mihawk wasn't surprised, after all, he had thought about this too. He had originally considered forming a force with others, but now it seemed that joining the " Abyss " Merchant Guild was more comfortable.
What are your plans?
Lin Yuan smiled. Now that Mihawk had joined, the Shichibukai could also form their own forces.
In the original work, with the rise of Luffy and his crew, Mihawk, Crocodile, and Buggy the Clown formed an Emperor-level pirate crew.
While many of them rely on Buggy the Clown's lucky aura, it doesn't mean they aren't strong. Mihawk himself is comparable to Marine Admiral.
Although Buggy the Clown isn't very strong, he has his merits in becoming an apprentice in Roger Pirates, just like Shanks. Moreover, he managed to fool a group of quite capable individuals.
With Crocodile's Logia, he now has the resources to establish himself in the New World.
Lin Yuan was originally thinking about how to handle Impel Down, but now that Mihawk has joined, perhaps he can prepare more, or even have a few more Emperor Pirate crews.
"I plan to launch the Marineford Paramount War Marine Headquarters, where the Shichibukai will turn against us, and the World Government will abolish the Seven Warlords of the Sea system."
"What I mean is that we can have you form a new Yonko-level pirate crew to divert the World Government's attention. It's even possible that, in a crucial moment, the original Yonko-level pirate crew could disappear."
Mihawk's pupils contracted, startled by Lin Yuan's words. Launching a war at Marine Headquarters or rebuilding several Yonko-level pirate crews was no easy task.
If Mihawk didn't know Lin Yuan's strength, he would have thought Lin Yuan had gone mad.
"Even if I join you, the others won't be easy to handle, and a Yonko-level pirate crew isn't something that can be formed just by talking; it requires immense strength. Are you confident?!"
Hearing this, Lin Yuan laughed loudly, a terrifying aura suddenly bursting forth from his body, and said arrogantly.
"Hahaha, don't worry, everything is under control. Besides, everyone else was arranged by me, except for you and the dead Doflamingo."
Mihawk was taken aback, his heart churning again. He recalled the time at Marineford when Doflamingo got beaten up for his rudeness, and how Crocodile, Jinbe, and Moria had all intervened.
I was even thinking about whether I should join in and make a token effort, but now I'm glad I didn't, or it would have been really awkward.
However, the Shichibukai had only just been established at that time. Mihawk didn't believe that Lin Yuan Lin Yuan just lucky to have found and subdued those people so precisely.
"I'm curious, how did you know the World Government was going to establish the Shichibukai, and how were you able to act in advance?"
"Cough cough..."
To be honest, Mihawk was indeed very curious, and not only him, but the entire " Abyss " Chamber of Commerce leadership was also very curious at the time, but Lin Yuan did not explain.
He gave Lin Yuan a strange look, judging from his expression, he probably wouldn't say anything. What a jerk.
What are you planning to do?
Seeing that Mihawk had changed the subject, Lin Yuan smiled and then revealed his plan to take action against Impel Down.
In the middle of this, Tesoro and the others arrived and joined in the planning process.
Under Lin Yuan's guidance, the project was ultimately carried out according to the original story, only some key points were changed.
The group discussed the matter for a long time, finally concluding it as night fell. Lin Yuan even called Whitebeard Newgate, to join the discussion.
Unlike Blackbeard, who wouldn't accept powerful figures like Bullet and Redfield, Lin Yuan's target was them; he looked down on anyone below the Emperor level.
As for Blackbeard's whereabouts, Lin Yuan has kept track of them for many years, since there are Shadow Secret Guard among his crew.
A few days later, a captain from the Whitebeard Pirates encountered Blackbeard by chance, and a battle ensued. In the end, the captain, who had a penchant for plundering, was wiped out.
Upon learning the news, the Whitebeard Pirates were furious and announced that they would clean house. Ace, who had returned to the Whitebeard Pirates, set off without saying a word.
This time, however, Ace's actions were all in the open, and he even had the secret support of the merchant guild.
In the first half of the Grand Line, Blackbeard was enjoying a delicious meal with several of his newly recruited subordinates.
"Captain, I heard the Whitebeard Pirates have announced they're going to capture you, and it seems like it's Fire Fist Ace coming. Should we avoid them?"
Jesus Burgess smiled and said to Blackbeard was standing beside him.
Blackbeard paused, a glint of excitement flashing in his eyes.
"Hahaha, Jesus Burgess, your intelligence was right! It's definitely that kid Ace!"
"Absolutely right, it's Fire Fist Ace! He's already left the New World to hunt you down. Don't die, or I'll have to be the captain, hahaha!"
Teach ignored Jesus Burgess, his heart filled with excitement; his original plan could finally be put into action.
Thinking of this, he thought of Lin Yuan again, his eyes filled with hatred. If it weren't for him, he might have become an emperor by now.
"Hahaha, this is great! I was still worrying about how to lure Ace out, but he actually came to me himself. Once my plan succeeds, even the Hidden Emperor Lin Yuan will be trampled under my feet."
Blackbeard wore a maniacal grin, as if he could see his glorious future unfolding before him.
Jesus Burgess, standing nearby, also burst into laughter. Lafitte and Van Augur watched the two laughing hysterically without saying a word, instead continuing to eat their food.
To them, Blackbeard's dream meant nothing; if he disappointed them, they would probably leave before anyone even had a chance to make a move.
"Hehehe, Ace, Pops, Lin Yuan, and the whole world, from now on they will all bow down at my feet, hehehe!"
Blackbeard laughed maniacally, a wisp of black mist flashing in his hand, looking extremely evil.
A strange look flashed in Lafitte's and Van Augur's eyes, and the corners of their mouths involuntarily turned up.
