Chapter 4 Prelude to the Battle of Marineford

[Kujo Jotaro: ...You can call me JOJO, @Borusalino, can you come and help me when the time comes? I'll be happy with any reward you need. ]

Given Jotaro Kujo's personality, even if he had to face a strong enemy like Dio Brando at other times, he would not rashly ask a stranger for help.

However, this battle concerns his mother's life. If he wants to completely eliminate the source of the curse, he must eliminate Dio Brando.

Although in the third part of JOJO uploaded to the group, he eventually defeated Dio, but why would he refuse when there is a more reliable way?
[Borsalino: Ah, of course. After all, I am a navy officer who carries the name of justice. As for the reward, the spoils of war will be mine.]

[Kujo Jotaro: Okay! When will you come over? ]

[Borsalino: When you arrive in Egypt, post the mission in the group, and I will go there.]

In the pirate world, Borsalino, who had been slacking off throughout the meeting, yawned.

He glanced at Nami, who was sitting a little behind him and writing furiously, and a hint of anticipation appeared on his face.

If you have the chance to travel to the world of JOJO, you can also hang Dio up and beat him up, which is much more interesting than fighting against some weird pirates.

Of course, the most important thing is to get some bonus by defeating the pirates, which is really not a motivation for Borsalino.

[Orochimaru: @Borusalino, Kizaru-kun, if you capture Dio Brando, can you spare some of his flesh and body tissue before completely destroying him? In exchange, I will give you a corresponding reward.]

[Borsalino: Sure, get the reward ready.]

Borsalino was not worried that Orochimaru would not be able to give him a satisfactory reward.

Although we still don't know what period the current Orochimaru in the group is from, as long as he is not a juvenile Orochimaru, he must have a lot of good things in his hands.

At the very least, he would wait until Orochimaru had something good in his hands, and then ask this guy for payment.

[A passerby who wants to cling to Luo Feng's thighs: That's good now. With Kizaru as a helper, even if Dio is cunning, he can't escape. ]

[Grayhara Ai: Are you so confident? ]

[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng's thigh: Let me put it this way, if Kizaru goes to your world, as long as he wants, he can tear Tokyo into ruins in the time it takes you to have afternoon tea.]

[Grayhara Ai: You sound just like the alien monster villain in Kamen Rider...]

[A passerby who wants to hug Luo Feng's thigh: To some extent, the monsters are far inferior to the big boss Kizaru. ]

What followed was a series of praise for the great boss Kizaru.

Although Borsalino himself did not say anything, his status in the eyes of his friends in the group was getting higher and higher.

In fact, the 'passerby who wants to curry favor with Luo Feng' who praises Borsalino is not just a follower or a fanatic. In his opinion, if he praises Kizaru so highly now, it will be difficult for him to just stand by and watch him die when he encounters danger in the future, right?

Even in a world like Devouring the Star, where combat power is overwhelming in the middle and late stages, Big Boss Kizaru can still act sideways in the early stages. If he could hold on to such a big leg first, at least his life safety would be guaranteed.

But unfortunately, this Borsalino is not the same 'Borsalino'. If it was the real Kizaru, he might not have taken action out of face, but the current Borsalino is not so easily moved.

While Borsalino was fishing on two fronts, the meeting at the Navy Headquarters also began to get down to business.

"Marshal Sengoku, is it questionable that you risked going to war with the Whitebeard Pirates just for a Fire Fist Ace?"

At this time, a vice admiral sitting not far from Admiral Aokiji asked. Not all navy officers were like Admiral Akainu, who wanted to wipe out all pirates at all costs.

Even in the Navy Headquarters, which is named after justice, there are hawkish navy and dovish navy based on their different stances towards pirates.

The former holds a very radical stance, arguing that pirates are a bunch of hopeless guys and that the navy must use the toughest means to eliminate all pirates, even if it affects civilians.

The latter's position is relatively conservative. In their view, the navy's duty is to protect the people and maintain justice. Putting the people in danger in order to eliminate pirates is an irresponsible behavior.

The representatives of the two factions are Admiral Akainu and Admiral Aokiji, while the neutral faction, which neither supports nor opposes the hawkish or dovish factions, elected Admiral Kizaru as their representative.

In private or mainly in front of Nami, Borsalino called the faction he represented the "Slacker Faction".

The current vice admiral of the headquarters is a so-called dove, and they are not opposed to cracking down on pirates.

But in their opinion, it is not a rational choice to start a full-scale conflict with the Whitebeard Pirates over the Fire Fist Ace.

Given the power of the Whitebeard Pirates, what would they do if they launched a full-scale retaliation against the Navy in the New World?
To take a step back, even if the naval branch in the New World can hold off the Whitebeard Pirates, how can we be sure that other pirate groups won't take advantage of the situation and cause trouble for the navy?

"That's exactly what we're going to talk about next..."

Marshal Zhan Guo took a deep breath. Even though more than ten years had passed, his voice involuntarily became serious when he mentioned the man's name again.

"The real name of the Captain of the Second Division of the Whitebeard Pirates, Ace the Fire Fist, is Gol D. Ace! He is the descendant of the Pirate King Gol D. Roger! The blood of sin runs in his veins!"

As soon as the words fell, the previously quiet conference room suddenly exploded.

Even Akainu and Kuzan showed shocked expressions on their faces.

Pirate King Gol D. Roger!

Even after more than ten years.

This man who personally started the great pirate era is still a taboo in the hearts of many navy men.

But now Marshal Sengoku said that Fire Fist Ace is the descendant of that man. When we think about Whitebeard, who was once both an enemy and a friend of Pirate King Roger, and that Fire Fist Ace is now the captain of Whitebeard's second team, one can't help but think about it.

"One Piece..."

Borsalino also felt a little emotional. He didn't expect that the truth that Vice Admiral Garp had concealed for so many years would eventually be exposed.

"Mr. Borsalino... you said Ace the Fire Fist... do you know where the Pirate King's treasure is hidden?"

Taking advantage of the moment when the naval officers in the conference room were discussing.

Nami approached Borsalino cautiously and asked, her beautiful big eyes having turned into the shape of treasure at some point.

"Ah this... I guess he doesn't know."

The corners of Borsalino's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself that he must keep a close eye on this greedy little thief.
