Fish-Man Street was actually the lawless zone of Fish-Man Island. Once a large institution for Fish-Man orphans, but due to management negligence, it became a gathering place for illegal groups.
Basically, all Fish-Men who harbored hatred towards humans originated from here.
Inside a discarded shipwreck in Fish-Man Street, figures appeared out of thin air beside Yang Tao.
Each of them was ugly, even grotesque, but they exuded a fierce aura, their eyes burning as they stared at the figure sitting on a discarded ship plank.
"Captain!"
"Captain!"
Yang Tao raised his hand, signaling the group in front of him to be quiet, then stood up and said loudly, "I think some of you have already recognized this place."
"Fish-Man Street… the place where many of you live."
The Fish-Men below, hearing his words, became slightly noisy but quickly quieted down again, looking at Yang Tao.
"Today I came here to do only three things: fairness! Fairness! And still, fairness!"
"However, to grant fairness to others, you need to possess absolute power, otherwise, it's a joke!"
"Go, defeat the Warlord of the Sea, Jinbe, and integrate all the forces in Fish-Man Street that can be integrated; once you bring them back, I will grant them power."
"Yes!!!"
The response of dozens of Fish-Men echoed throughout the abandoned shipwreck, though Yang Tao wondered why sound could travel so clearly underwater…
Nevertheless, he was very satisfied with the Fish-Men's energetic demeanor.
'Navy, I still need to cause some trouble to divert the Navy's attention from Fish-Man Island, or perhaps go to Navy Headquarters…'
There was nothing more cost-effective than causing a ruckus at Navy Headquarters.
A Rumble of noise was already coming from outside, clearly, his subordinates had engaged with the Fish-Men on Fish-Man Street.
Yang Tao was not worried about their safety.
Fish-Men rarely fought to the death with other Fish-Men, and even Jinbe, the Warlord of the Sea, would at most give them a severe beating.
However, at this point in time, the Warlord of the Sea Jinbe might not necessarily be able to defeat his subordinates in a group fight.
Their pure strength might be a bit lacking, but among the Fish-Men under Yang Tao, there were healers, tanks, and damage dealers, and all of them had awakened two-color Haki, with one guy named Aji even having the dog-shit luck of awakening Conqueror's Haki.
In the mod, Armament Haki and Observation Haki could be awakened simply by taking a beating, but Conqueror's Haki was purely by luck.
The probability was very low, but the advantage was not having to consider other factors.
Standing on the fireplace bricks, he took out Floo Powder, silently recited "Sabaody Archipelago," and instantly the scene before him shifted; his figure appeared on the mangroves of Sabaody Archipelago.
He took out a Magic Broom from his backpack, then took out a Grand Line map, glanced at it, and flew towards Marineford, where Navy Headquarters was located.
Navy Headquarters was very close to Sabaody Archipelago, and even closer to Fish-Man Island, but traveling underwater was indeed slower than on the surface.
However, after more than ten minutes, the island where Navy Headquarters was located appeared in his sight.
The island where Navy Headquarters was located was not large, but the buildings on it were densely packed; most Navy family members lived here, after all, in this era of rampant pirates, apart from the Holy Land Mary Geoise that Yang Tao destroyed, only Navy Headquarters was the safest.
The most conspicuous building on the island was the Navy Headquarters. Below, a platform was built, with extremely thick walls made of giant stones, almost indestructible.
Unfortunately, this was the world of One Piece, and in front of various Devil Fruit users, the so-called indestructibility became somewhat laughable.
One could only say that this building looked magnificent.
He landed directly on the top floor from the air.
Just as he was about to go down and look around, a quarrel came from nearby.
"Garp, can you eat in your own office?!!!"
"Your office is comfortable to sit in…"
Bang!
It must have been the sound of a table being knocked.
"Garp, you… did you hear me, stop eating!"
A smile appeared on Yang Tao's face.
These Navy high-ranking officials were truly bored. Garp either went out to sea for a 'vacation' to catch a few small pirates to earn his salary, or he went to have a heart-to-heart with his beloved grandson.
When he returned to Headquarters, he spent his days thinking about eating Sengoku's senbei, primarily just 'loafing around'.
He walked towards the door of Sengoku's office, but after only two steps, he heard a bang, and a white-haired head popped out of the wall, startling him.

At the same time, Sengoku's furious voice came from inside the room.
"Garp, those were my last senbei!! You, you actually ate them all, it's unforgivable!"
Garp didn't even bother with Sengoku, he opened his eyes, looked at Yang Tao, and let out his characteristic laughter, saying, "Haha, kid, how come I've never seen you? Are you here to find this guy Sengoku?"
"Uh, I guess so…"
Yang Tao watched as Garp pulled his head out of the wall as if nothing had happened, scratched his head with a large hand, pushed open the door of an adjacent office, and walked out.
Even then, he didn't forget to say to Sengoku, "Haha, Sengoku, someone's here to see you, I'll be going now!"
[HP 7.2 million / 7.2 million]
What's going on? Garp is even stronger than Akainu? This Garp is really good at hiding his true strength.
In this situation, if Sengoku hadn't held him back during the Summit War, he really could have hammered Akainu to death.
With that, Garp swaggered away.
As for Garp not recognizing Yang Tao's identity, that was absolutely normal; it would be abnormal if he recognized him immediately.
"Come in!"
Sengoku's voice rang out from the room.
"Fleet Admiral Sengoku, good afternoon!"
Yang Tao walked into Sengoku's office with a smile, greeting him. The current Sengoku still looked very young; his long goatee was braided, and his military cap had a seagull symbolizing "Navy," with an afro hidden beneath the cap.
The key point was that the seagull was alive, not just a decoration.
Yang Tao suspected that this guy Sengoku was keeping two pets in his office and wondered if he was taking a sinecure.
He was calm, but Sengoku couldn't be calm at all; upon seeing him, he shot up from his chair with a whoosh.
"Yang Tao, you actually dare to come to Navy Headquarters…"
"I've even been to Mary Geoise."
Sengoku was silenced by Yang Tao's single sentence; apparently, Mary Geoise was even more important than Navy Headquarters.
"What do you want to do? Another massacre?"
Yang Tao walked into Sengoku's office with a smile, completely ignoring the Conqueror's Haki emanating from Sengoku. The mental suppression of Conqueror's Haki in the One Piece world was useless to him, unless it was Conqueror's Haki that could cause other reactions.
"Nothing, I just came to visit today, and on the way, ask where the Celestial Dragons went. Don't worry, my target is the World Government; I'm not very interested in the Navy."
"To be honest, in my eyes, you Navy are no different from those pirates."
