"Don't worry, Sengoku."
"During this period, we have selected 564 individuals with business acumen from within the Navy."
"Although the learning period is still short, the teachers we've invited are all very experienced, and things are progressing very smoothly. The first batch of students will graduate within a year."
Crane slowly walked to Sengoku's side. As an old comrade-in-arms, she had always been silently supporting him from behind.
It was precisely because of the crane's help that the Sengoku felt much easier.
Otherwise, with so many troubles, the Fleet Admiral Sengoku would have been overwhelmed long ago.
"Very good. Ultimately, the fate of our navy depends on our own efforts."
Sengoku glanced at the crane, then thought of Garp...
Ugh, why am I thinking about that jerk? It's bad luck.
"Boss, there's a ship blocking our way. It looks like Red-Haired Shanks's men."
On the forward ship of the Revolutionary Army, a soldier on the lookout tower ran into the meeting room to report on the situation at the front.
"Okay, I understand."
Long nodded, then looked at the other cadres.
"Gentlemen, this temporary meeting will conclude here. Let's proceed according to plan."
"Let's go out and see what the Red Hair Pirates are up to."
Long led the way onto the deck, and looking up, a pirate ship with a red dragon head came into view.
The two ships drew closer, and Shanks and his key officers waited at the bow, the two groups facing each other.
"Dragon Leader."
" The Revolutionary Army isn't the only one wanting to overthrow the World Government. Would you mind having one more of us?"
Shanks ' words did not surprise Dragon, after all, their side was the Revolutionary Army's base, and no single pirate crew could possibly mess with them.
Since they're not here to cause trouble, they must be here to seek cooperation.
Dragon: Kazu Kaz and Newgate, please stand up for a moment. Everyone else here is just a junior.
Although the Revolutionary Army usually keeps a low profile, they have the confidence and strength to back it up.
Shanks had investigated the other party; after all, the person who guided his son onto the path of piracy was someone he couldn't possibly remain indifferent to.
The investigation also proved that the other party was indeed at odds with the World Government.
Looking at Shanks, Dragon smiled and nodded, saying, "Many hands make light work. We're all friends with the same enemy, so of course there's no problem."
The two exchanged a smile, Shanks led his companions to the ship's wheel.
"Men, full speed ahead! Destination— Mary Geoise!!"
"Aww!!"
The Red Hair Pirates were in high spirits, and the Revolutionary Army was not far behind, with Ivankov and the various Army Commander boosting morale.
"As expected of Army Commander Betty, I feel full of energy now!!"
"Me too, Betty! Let's charge up to Mary Geoise!!"
While the other Army Commander ' encouragement had a good effect, it paled in comparison to Betty's open-chested, generous, and unrestrained demeanor.
"Little Betty, come and give us a boost too. Look how you've provoked your East Army; they're about to explode if you keep going."
Betty lit a cigarette and walked towards them with an impatient look on her face.
"Shut up, you bunch of idiots!"
"This is about to be the most crucial battle for our Revolutionary Army. Everyone, give it your all!"
"Awooo!!!"
With the boost from Betty's Pump-Pump Fruit, everyone was as if they'd been injected with adrenaline, wishing they could kick Imu and tear the Five Elders apart right now.
"Haha, they're really motivated!"
"Looks like we have to strike first this time, otherwise we won't get a chance to fight the enemy."
The Red Line was right in front of us; it would only take less than half an hour from the port of the Sabaody Archipelago to reach the base of that great red wall.
There are indeed elevators on the Sabaody Archipelago, but they are for the use of nobles; it's impractical for groups of people to go up together.
There was also equipment specifically designed to transport ships up there, but the Five Elders of Mary Geoise had long ago ordered its dismantling to prevent the Revolutionary Army from using it.
Looking up at the endless Red Line, everyone felt as if they were trying to cook without rice.
"Leader Dragon, I suppose you already had a plan in mind."
Shanks stood at the bow of the ship, looking at the dragon not far away, his expression very serious. He was certain that the meticulous Revolutionary Army had long since made thorough preparations.
"Cough cough~"
Dragon didn't speak, but silently took out a Den Den Mushi and quickly dialed the number.
"Oh, it's a dragon! Have you arrived yet?"
Kazu's cheerful voice came through the Den Den Mushi, and it was clear he was in a good mood.
"Lord Kazu, we have reached the foot of the Red Line. We would be grateful if you could come and help us reach Mary Geoise."
Dragon had already discussed this matter with Kazu; the Five Elders ' actions were already within their plans.
"No problem, wait for me."
Swish~
As soon as he finished speaking, the massive hull of the Divine Dragon appeared out of thin air before everyone's eyes.
With a splash, a huge spray of water erupted, and the sea became somewhat turbulent.
