"Sengoku, Garp is right this time!" Tsuru spoke first.
"The One-Punch Man Saitama's strength is far beyond that of ordinary Vice Admirals, but we still know nothing about his origins."
"Instead of placing him within the Navy, it's more convenient to make him a Seven Warlord."
"If, later on, he can truly contribute to our Navy, then we can consider recruiting him into Marine Headquarters. It won't be too late."
As these words fell, Akainu's expression slightly darkened.
After a moment of silence, Sengoku said, "Tsuru is right. I was too hasty."
"Zephyr lost an arm to Weevil this time, and his strength is likely to be affected."
"The priority now is to have Laxus return to Marine Headquarters as soon as possible to take over Chief Instructor Zephyr's duties. Facing this ever-changing sea, we need to make arrangements in advance. Otherwise, if these guys make a move, Marine Headquarters will be in a very passive position."
Thinking of the Four Emperors who occupied the New World and fought independently.
Now, there was also the emergence of the Fifth Emperor, Skull Demon.
Along with the continuous major incidents, and potentially powerful forces hidden in the darkness, comparable to the Rocks Pirates.
A series of disturbances from the sea.
This was a huge challenge for Sengoku.
If another incident like Enies Lobby, Impel Down, or the Holy Land Mary Geoise on the Red Line were to occur.
Sengoku would likely lose face and be unable to continue leading on this sea.
"Hmph, since there's nothing for me here, I don't need to waste any more time lingering."
"However, Fleet Admiral Sengoku, don't forget the bet between Laxus and me." Akainu stood up abruptly and said, "Of course, whether he admits defeat publicly or is defeated in the end, I won't make it difficult for him to join Marine Headquarters. Are you satisfied with this?"
With these words, Akainu turned and left first.
Watching Akainu's retreating figure disappear down the corridor.
Sengoku's face darkened, and he sighed softly, "There's only one month left until the duel, and I don't even know where Laxus is."
"Moreover, the student chosen for the duel has no time to train. Can he really defeat Akainu in this battle?"
With that, Sengoku gave a wry smile. "If Laxus loses and loses confidence in Marine Headquarters, and just leaves, it will be adding insult to injury!"
As these words fell, a sense of inexplicable oppression filled the atmosphere.
Garp rolled his eyes and said, "Sengoku, you're worrying too much."
"However, Marine Headquarters also needs to make changes quickly, otherwise, we'll be left behind by the pirates."
"Garp, I didn't expect you to think with your pig brain too," Sengoku glared.
"Oh, right. What happened on the Moby Dick? You haven't reported it to me properly yet!"
"Hey, Garp, don't run... Is it related to your grandson!"
Meanwhile, within the Holy Land Mary Geoise.
A warship was docked at an abandoned port.
Looking at the scorched earth, like a thousand miles of red soil, the devastated land, even after more than half a month, still gave a shocking feeling.
The Navy soldiers stationed on the warship couldn't help but swallow.
In their eyes, a single person who turned the Holy Land Mary Geoise into a battlefield.
And retreated unharmed from facing a Marine Admiral.
These achievements could be described as earth-shattering.
"Vice Admiral Vergo, your pork chop is still stuck on your face, haven't you removed it yet!" aadjutant couldn't help but ask.
"Who is this Seven Warlord we're here to escort?"
As for the Seven Warlords, anyone who lived by the sword on this sea would definitely be familiar with them.
However, the Seven Warlords were the elite among pirates, and in a sense.
They were adversaries of Marine Headquarters and even the World Government.
Their presence in Marine Headquarters was already unexpected.
Let alone a Seven Warlord, who had come to the Holy Land Mary Geoise to meet with the Five Elders.
The prestige they held was beyond what ordinary people could predict.
"It's Doflamingo of the Donquixote Family, the Heavenly Miasma. Don't forget, he holds the title of King of Dressrosa, so it's not surprising that he's here to meet the Five Elders," Vergo said calmly.
"However, what puzzles me is that during lunch just now, I clearly ate the pork chop, so why is there a second piece on my face? Is it a special afternoon tea you prepared for me?"
Looking at Vergo, who was seriously touching his face and continuing to savor it.
The Navy soldiers present smiled bitterly.
This wasn't the first time they had encountered such a situation.
In their memories, Vergo's face could stick to anything.
Especially when going to the toilet, he wouldn't even spare the large intestine.
"He's here, everyone be careful!" Vergo said suddenly after stuffing the pork chop in his hand into his mouth.
The Navy soldiers present were stunned at first.
Before they could react, a phantom-like figure descended from the sky.
Landing directly on the warship's deck.
The moment his footsteps landed, a powerful, tidal wave of Conqueror's Haki erupted.
Bang, bang, bang!
Caught off guard, the sudden burst of aura directly caused all the Navy soldiers on the ship to roll their eyes and foam at the mouth, falling unconscious.
The remaining Navy officers who were slightly stronger and withstood the Conqueror's Haki's impact.
Were directly flicked with a thread by Doflamingo.
Stabbed in the back of the neck, they were manually induced into a state of unconsciousness.
Seeing his subordinates instantly incapacitated, Vergo seemed accustomed to it and said, "Young Master, I didn't expect you to contact me at this time."
"However, I'd like to know what you're seeking this time."
As Doflamingo's subordinate, he was the most important piece planted in Marine Headquarters.
If it weren't for the survival of the Donquixote family.
Doflamingo would absolutely not want to meet Vergo frequently.
After all, in Doflamingo's eyes, every time they met, the chance of their plan being exposed increased.
"Vergo, I asked you to investigate information about Saitama. Have you found anything yet?" Doflamingo said with a mocking grin.
"This time, that guy Kaido personally commissioned me to deal with Saitama."
"However, it would be too risky for me to act alone. That's why I'm here in Mary Geoise this time, to drag the Five Elders into this."
"If those stubborn old guys are willing to lend a hand, I believe that even if Saitama hides his strength, there's an eighty percent chance we can kill him."
