Chapter 131
"No, Captain, please don't think so!" Martin fell to the ground and hugged Zhang Lie's thighs,"What's wrong with you? You have to go to death."
Zhang Lie shook the cowardly dog away twice:"Stop howling, I don't plan to take you"
"So, it's all right then." Martin stood up and looked like nothing had happened again.
"A coward, no bottom line, disloyal, shameful... No, you have made the dog lose face." Ah Jin took the opportunity to talk nonsense.
"Captain, if Husky doesn't go, I will. As long as you give the order, no matter who the enemy is, I will move forward bravely."
Zhang Lie was indeed quite relieved:"Ajin, you are really nice, but it's good to have this intention. I only plan to bring Bruno this time, his ability is more suitable for this operation."
"Hmm?" Bruno was a little dizzy when the matter suddenly fell on his head."Captain, are you sure I can play a role? This time the enemy is a legendary pirate."
Zhang Lie felt that he had to comfort him, otherwise the morale of the army would be unstable:
"Don't worry, no matter how strong he is,���, the current Shiki is not the golden lion of the past. A ship's rudder was stuck in his head during the Battle of Etwal, and he has had brain problems ever since.
And in order to escape from the prison in Impel Down, he didn't hesitate to cut off his legs. I don't know what he was thinking. He had the Float-Float Fruit, which didn't affect his movements, but he insisted on using two swords instead.
You have to know that he is a great swordsman, and half of his strength is in the sword. Using his legs to slash, both the power and speed are greatly reduced, and it is completely not the same level as before.
If you really calculate it, his strength may be less than one-third of his peak period, and at most he has a bounty of more than a billion. He may not even be able to take down that Stussy."
"A reward of more than one billion is also a super strong person."Bruno muttered, but his personality and style made him not refuse the mission.
"Since the captain has made the decision, I will obey and do my best to complete the mission."
"Don't worry, you just need to assist from the side." Zhang Lie didn't make it difficult for him, and then said to the others:"Next, go to the gathering place, I will figure out how to get there."
"Yes!" Everyone followed the order and left the room, leaving only the secretary, Kalifa.
Zhang Lie's solution was of course to ask the navy, which was the most useful and effective. In fact, he had no other way.
"Mort, I'm Zhang Lie, there's no one around right now"
"Ah…hahaha…Zhang Lie, there’s no one around me right now, what’s wrong with you?"
Zhang Lie felt something was wrong, but he didn’t think too much about it and started to explain his situation:
"I found a rough range based on the intelligence. Please help me determine the location and the eternal pointer of nearby locations. The surrounding environment is……"
Mott was indeed very capable, or the Navy had a strong understanding of the first half of the Grand Line, and quickly provided a location.
"There is a place that fits your description better, called Barbaro Island. The World Government used to mine there, but it was later abandoned. However, there are still a few Eternal Pointers."
"Okay, I'm going to go over there. How do I get this eternal pointer?"
"You go to the next island first, and then...wait...how about this, the headquarters sends a warship over there, and when you meet it, you can hijack the warship"
"Will it work?" Zhang Lie felt it was unreliable no matter how he listened to it."You will screw the navy if you do this. Besides, do you have such great authority?"
"Don't worry about it. As a colonel in the intelligence department, I still have this right. Besides, the actions of the SWORD captain must be guaranteed first."
Zhang Lie didn't expect that the SWORD captain still has this benefit now, but it may only be now. Who knows what will happen if those second-generations come in in the future.
"Then I'll do as you say. I don't want to change the route either, so I'll just take a warship and write two big words of justice on the sails to avoid any misunderstandings."
"Sure, let’s do it."
After the two sides reached an agreement, Zhang Lie hung up the phone and asked Khalifa,"Have you heard of that Barbaro Island?"
"I've heard of it." Kalifa nodded,"Lucci and Kaku have been there before. It is said that for some reason there are some powerful beasts on the island, and they went there to take some samples."
"Powerful beasts? Did they find anything later?"Zhang Lie thought of the large creatures on the island.
"I'm not sure about this. After all, we are just CP9 personnel, responsible for carrying out the mission, so it's better not to inquire about the follow-up matters."
"All right, then tell them to keep going and keep an eye out for the navy ships with the word justice printed on their sails."
"Got it!" Kalifa walked out twisting her waist.
On the other side, at the Navy Headquarters Intelligence Department, Mott hung up the phone and said to the people around him:
"Admiral, are you really going to let him hijack the warship?"
"Hijacking is fine, as long as he has the strength."Aokiji had a nonchalant expression on his face, with a hint of joking in it, and then stood up and left.
"Okay, let's do it this way. Oh, by the way, if someone asks me, I will just say I don't know."
"Yes!" Mort saluted and watched Aokiji walk out, but he was complaining in his heart,"The Admiral is going for another 'walk'."
Of course, Aokiji didn't have to arrange the warship himself. After returning to his office, he lay on the chair and put on an eye mask. He looked very leisurely, but he was muttering:
"Shiki the Golden Lion is a dangerous pirate. We can't just leave him alone. And Zhang Lie, you are too brave. I don't know whether you will be taught a lesson or create a miracle this time."
Two days later, Zhang Lie was practicing in the sea when he was suddenly pulled onto the boat by a force. Needless to say, only Martin dared to do this.
But he didn't get angry. He first listened to the Husky's reason. If it was not enough, it would not be too late to take action.
"Captain, we found a warship with the word"Justice" on it, just in front of us on the left!" Martin pointed in a direction.
Zhang Lie took the telescope and looked in the direction he saw. As expected, he saw a warship, and it seemed that the other party had also discovered him and was turning towards him.
"Adjust the direction, the express has arrived!"
Martin was stunned:"What is the express?"
Zhang Lie slapped him on the head:"Why is your focus so tricky? Stop talking nonsense and get to work!"
At this moment, Zhang Lie looked like an exploitative capitalist.
Soon the two sides met and arrived within the range of the cannon, but they tacitly did not fire, and they were too lazy to even pretend.
Zhang Lie was a little surprised to see this. After all, these navy officers didn't know his undercover identity. With his bounty, these people shouldn't be so calm.
But it's already now, he can't just take action, and the navy came here specially, it's impossible for them to let him go after meeting him.
Zhang Lie didn't understand and was too lazy to think about it. He jumped over and landed on the ram of the bow of the warship.
As soon as he stood firm, he crossed his arms in front of his chest and announced in an invincible manner:
"I have commandeered this warship. Now I give you three choices. One is to be obedient and I will let you go when you reach your destination. Two is to get lost on the next island. Three is…" He couldn’t finish his words because there was only one person on the warship. Then he heard that person ask,"What is three? Keep talking. I’m very curious.""
"Aokiji!!! Why are you here!"
