"This matter is of great importance; it concerns the fate of everyone in the entire navy."
"Let me..."
"Think about it for a moment."
Sengoku fell silent, but Garp was getting anxious.
Just as he was about to say something more, Chief Staff Officer Tsuru stood up from the side, walked up to Garp, and said, " Garp, you need to give Sengoku some time."
"He can't be as carefree as you. He carries the future of the entire navy on his shoulders, so it's only natural that he's more cautious."
Garp clearly took Tsuru's words to heart, opened his mouth, but didn't say anything more.
"Hmph, although I'm very unhappy about losing to pirates, for the future of the entire Navy, and for the smoother execution of justice in the future, I think we can join forces with the Revolutionary Army once."
Akainu represents the radical faction within the Navy. He has always hated pirates, and the fact that he would say something like joining forces with the Revolutionary Army shows just how much he despises the Celestial Dragons.
"Oh dear, Fleet Admiral Sengoku, if the Navy could handle fewer of the messes we have to clean up for the World Government in the future, I think our reputation would be much better."
Aokiji also expressed his opinion: the World Government is too corrupt, and the Navy always has to clean up its messes. People outside always say that they are the World Government's dogs, and the key is that they can't refute it.
Even ordinary Celestial Dragons need the Marine Admiral to come to their rescue when they encounter danger, let alone the Five Elders, the nobles among the Celestial Dragons.
It is absolutely impossible for the Navy to defy the World Government's orders; even the Admiral cannot remain unaffected.
With just a word about cutting off your military spending, the navy has no choice but to obediently work for the World Government. Otherwise, how can so many officers and soldiers just lie on the shore drinking seawater to stave off hunger?
"Looks like a new battle is about to begin. To keep my salary, I guess I can't just ignore it anymore."
Kizaru blew on his newly trimmed nails and put the nail clippers back in his pocket.
Although he still spoke in a carefree manner, his eyes had become serious, and it was truly rare to see such a change in his expression.
With the Three Admirals speaking in succession and Garp present, Sengoku made his final decision after a few minutes of Sengoku struggle.
"Since you all share this intention, and things have already come to this point..."
"Then let's try contacting the Revolutionary Army."
"The road ahead has reached a dead end; we might as well bravely change direction and forge a new path to the future."
" Garp, find a way to contact the Revolutionary Army. This is your job, and you and Tsuru's. I need to talk to Dragon personally."
With a determined look in his eyes, Sengoku decided to abandon all reservations and dedicate himself to achieving that desirable future.
"Haha, don't worry, I just talked to my bastard son a few days ago. Leave this to me."
Garp patted his chest and assured him that as long as Sengoku agreed, everything else would be easy to resolve.
Sengoku made no attempt to hide his speechlessness upon hearing Garp's heartless words.
You can do this secretly if you want, but don't talk about it openly.
Well, the situation is what it is now, and he's too lazy to talk to Garp anymore.
Originally, I wanted Tsuru to help Garp, but since Garp has his own channels, Tsuru will stay and help him deal with the headquarters' problems.
The navy has suffered too many losses of its elite forces this time; we must promote some new talents.
He hesitated, wondering whether to launch a large-scale recruitment drive worldwide, as a way to give their navy more resources to stand firm in this turbulent world.
There are advantages and disadvantages. The disadvantage is that the quality may vary, and the loyalty of the high-level combat forces recruited cannot be guaranteed.
Ugh, my head hurts.
On the other side, Garp didn't care whether Sengoku had a headache or not. He walked out of the Fleet Admiral's Office and went straight back to his Vice Admiral's office.
Opening the safe's drawer, a dragon-themed Den Den Mushi) came into view.
Garp picked up the Den Den Mushi and dialed the number without hesitation.
Meanwhile, Dragon had already received the news that the World Government and the Navy had suffered heavy losses. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that would be fleeting.
Dragon himself came from the South Blue to the Grand Line, wanting to see for himself just how weak the World Government really is.
If he could, he would not hesitate to lead his Revolutionary Army comrades to Mary Geoise and overthrow the Celestial Dragons ' brutal rule.
Blub Blub Blub, Blub Blub Blub~
Dragon sat in a secret room, took out the Den Den Mushi from his pocket, and saw that it was his own Pops.
That's strange, we just talked about it a few days ago. Could it be that he misses his son?
That shouldn't be the case. The old man isn't that kind of person. It's already a blessing that he didn't kick me; anything more is just wishful thinking.
Never mind, I'll answer it first. Garp wouldn't contact him unless it's something important.
Long answered the phone directly, saying, "Father."
"You bastard, I have some great news to tell you!!"
Garp's grinning expression was perfectly copied by the Den Den Mushi, making Ryu's eyelids twitch.
Fortunately, no one was around; he still needed to maintain the dignity of the Revolutionary Army leader.
