"Hehe, Admiral Bai Yu, I didn't expect you to be able to joke."
Yamakaji walked over laughing and said.
"However, you can rest assured and go see Fleet Admiral Sengoku. We will handle things properly here."
"We refuse to believe that anything we, three Marine Vice Admiral, cannot resolve in the Holy Land Mary Geoise."
"As for the Five Elders, it's possible that Fleet Admiral Sengoku has already found a solution, so Admiral Bai Yu doesn't need to worry too much."
Gion, who was standing to the side, did not speak, but she also nodded silently.
Rather than letting them believe that the Five Elders would try to take action against Bai Yu, it's better to let them believe that the Five Elders will try to harm Bai Yu.
Gion was even more hopeful that Sengoku and the Five Elders had already begun peace talks.
After all, as Marine Admiral Candidate, Gion did not want to one day find herself on the high seas, facing off against Bai Yu from opposing sides.
"Since you put it that way, then this place is yours to manage."
Bai Yu smiled and took a swig of his drink.
"However, rather than seeking reconciliation, I would much rather be able to strike one of the Five Elders with a knife."
Boom!
Endless lightning surged forth from Bai Yu's body.
The next moment, before everyone's eyes, it transformed into a bolt of lightning and disappeared in the direction of Marine Headquarters.
With Bai Yu's departure, the previously chaotic dock gradually calmed down.
And then, a series of dark figures hidden in the corners quickly retreated.
Inside the highest palace in the Holy Land Mary Geoise.
The Five Elders looked at the intelligence being transmitted back to them, a cold smile appearing on their faces.
"I thought that brat would hide away, but he's still as arrogant as ever. Even Gecko Moria suffered at his hands and lost face in public. This is a huge boon to our plans."
Nusjuro said with a cold laugh.
"At that time, all we'll need is a legitimate reason to take action."
" Daps, have you arranged everything else?"
Upon hearing this, Daps gripped his cane tighter and said, "Don't worry, I've made all the arrangements. The scene will be quite chaotic."
"I believe that, given that brat's arrogance, he will definitely not be able to resist making a move."
"Once that time comes, as long as we manage to stop Garp and Sengoku, that brat will perish in the Holy Land Mary Geoise and become nourishment for the Red Line."
"Of course!" A murderous glint flashed across the Nusjuro's face, and he crushed the wine cup in his hand into Crush.
"This time, I'll definitely show him what despair is. I really want to see what kind of expression he'll have."
Meanwhile, as the Five Elders plotted their scheme, on a deserted island outside Marineford, the Marine Headquarters...
Bai Yu followed the guidance of the Vivre Card in his hand and finally landed on it.
"Kid, you've finally arrived. I really hoped you'd stay hidden on Fish-Man Island and never come back."
Sengoku's voice suddenly rang out, and he quickly emerged from behind a reef, followed by Garp.
Bai Yu casually took a swig of his drink.
"Old Master Sengoku, you should know very well that I will not do anything that involves hiding."
"Moreover, constantly running away might bring trouble to those around me, which is inconsistent with my principles."
you!
Sengoku was speechless for a moment, then shook his head helplessly.
"Alright, I won't try to persuade you any further."
"However, I must warn you, our negotiations with the Five Elders have failed. They are unwilling to meet with us, so this trip to the Holy Land Mary Geo will be extremely dangerous. I'll ask you one more time, are you really going?"
From the very beginning, Sengoku also didn't take the boy in front of him seriously.
Unfortunately, as time went on, Sengoku realized that he was gradually being led by the nose by Bai Yu.
At the very least, as Fleet Admiral, Sengoku absolutely did not want to watch Bai Yu, who had grown up all the way in the Marine Headquarters, die.
" Fleet Admiral Sengoku, you're being too sentimental. Perhaps you shouldn't say so much; it's not in line with your personality."
Bai Yu responded with a smile.
"You should know very well that, given the chance, I'd rather know whether the Five Elders are worth cutting down."
Cut down the Five Elders?
Sengoku smiled helplessly; only Bai Yu could come up with such a unique way of thinking.
"Forget it, no matter what I say, I can't reason with you."
"However, to deal with any possible situations, I had Garp hire someone. If anything really happens that you can't handle, you can contact him."
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Yu raised an eyebrow and looked up at the sky.
In an instant, the once clear sky was swept up by a massive hurricane, with thick, leaden clouds gathering beneath.
A pale green hurricane, like a meteorite, crashed down from the sky.
Bang!
Large waves surged outwards.
A figure dressed in a long black robe was fully revealed.
"Is it a dragon?"
Bai Yu was a little surprised.
The figure hidden in the black robe gradually became clearer, and a long-lost smile appeared on that well-defined face.
" Bai Yu, you little rascal, you're still as rude as ever. No wonder Makino always talks bad about you."
"However, after three years apart, I never expected to see you again with such a reputation."
"If you wish, the doors of the Revolutionary Army are always open to you, and I can even offer you my seat if you so desire."
As Luffy's father, Dragon does indeed spend very little time returning to Windmill Village.
In the original work, even Luffy always believed that he only had his grandfather, which is enough to show how unscrupulous Dragon is.
However, unlike Luffy's single-mindedness, Bai Yu clearly knew that every time Dragon returned, he would secretly glance at Luffy.
On several occasions, Bai Yu caught them in the act, and the two drank together several times.
Under the influence of alcohol, the two still maintained a close relationship.
Long had also extended an invitation to Bai Yu to join the Revolutionary Army.
This time, however, it was clearly more serious and taken more seriously than before.
"You damned dragon, I knew you'd try to play tricks on me. Remember this: Bai Yu is a member of our Marine Headquarters. He will never become Revolutionary Army."
Sengoku's face darkened, and he quickly stated his position.
The dragon didn't take it to heart at all and laughed heartily.
"Haha, a wise Fleet Admiral Sengoku chooses its tree to perch on. Bai Yu is a talent. As the leader of the Revolutionary Army, I certainly can't let any opportunity slip by. Don't forget what my status was before."
"I'm just giving Bai Yu another option. Whether he's willing to accept it or not depends on whether those old guys in the World Government have any more magnanimity."
you!
The Sengoku was suddenly speechless.
However, he was somewhat at a loss for words in the face of Long's words, and after a soft sigh, he said...
"Alright, you have a point. I called you here this time to prevent the tragedy from happening again. If something irreversible does happen, I hope you can step in."
