Chapter 19 Dorag

Chapter 19 Dorag

It’s not that Marshal Sengoku is afraid of the strength of the Whitebeard Pirates, but out of a sense of responsibility for the navy, he wants to do it as perfectly as possible.

It would be best if Whitebeard and even the Whitebeard Pirates were completely destroyed without any harm to the top navy officers!
"Ah, I've already convinced the Empress, and I'm preparing to contact the remaining few..."

Borsalino spoke lazily, if you ask how I convinced them, it was naturally by speaking... naturally by appealing to their emotions and reasoning with the greater good.

"Very good. Complete the recruitment of the Shichibukai as soon as possible. Once the war is over, I will personally approve your one-month leave."

Marshal Zhan Guo was a little surprised. He didn't expect that Borsalino, who was known for being a slacker, would be so diligent.

However, to be on the safe side, the action to recruit the Seven Warlords of the Sea should be as quick as possible.

For this reason, Marshal Sengoku personally promised Borsalino that he would give him a vacation after the end of the War of Marineford.

This is simply unbelievable for the Warring States admiral who wishes all the high-ranking naval officers to work 996.

"Huh? So urgent? Is there something wrong with Fire Fist Ace?"

Borsalino felt a little incredible!

The Warring States Marshal who urged them to work every day actually took the initiative to offer him a holiday.

For a moment, Borsalino almost thought that Marshal Sengoku was too busy and mistook him for the workaholic Sakaski.

Fortunately, Borsalino soon thought of another possibility. The Navy's arrangements for the war at the top were all centered around Ace, the Fire Fist.

Now the corresponding plans need to be advanced, which means that Fire Fist Ace is likely to have fallen into the hands of the navy.

"Blackbeard has sent Ace the Fire Fist to the G6 branch. Although the news has not leaked out yet, if Ace the Fire Fist is missing for too long, the Whitebeard Pirates will probably be on high alert..."

Marshal Sengoku said in a deep voice that if the opponent is the Whitebeard Pirates, then they cannot be too cautious.

The high-ranking naval officers of this generation have witnessed the entire process of the rise of the Whitebeard Pirates. Even compared with the Pirate King Roger, Whitebeard's reputation on the sea is not inferior at all.

If we want to completely eliminate the Whitebeard Pirates, we must go all out even with the power of the navy!
"Okay, got it. I will complete the recruitment of the Shichibukai as soon as possible."

Borsalino scratched his head. The time he could slack off had shortened a lot. Although he could slack off at the Navy Headquarters, it was nowhere near as happy as at Amazon Lily.

However, Marshal Zhan Guo cannot be offended, after all, he is his superior.

If you anger Marshal Zhan Guo, you won't be able to be a salary thief happily.

"Very good. After completing the mission, remember to return to the headquarters as soon as possible. There is no need to force everyone to be recruited. Five... four will be enough. Leave the rest to me."

Marshal Sengoku was also well aware of the character of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. Even if the admiral of the navy took action personally, it would be difficult to guarantee that he could subdue all of them.

It would be better to set a more relaxed target for Borsalino, so that the admirals will not have to fight with the Seven Warlords of the Sea before the war even starts.

He knows these 'legal pirates' too well.

As long as the majority among them are convinced first, the remaining rebellious navy members can naturally be subdued through various means.

Without the ability to work together, even the Seven Warlords of the Sea are just relatively strong pirates who will quickly bow down under the pressure of the Marine Headquarters.

"Okay, leave it to me... Oh, it's really not easy for me..." Borsalino hung up the phone with Marshal Sengoku and basked in the sun for a while before picking up the Den Den Mushi again.

"… Borsalino?"

The person on the other end of the Den Den Mushi didn't seem to have expected that Borsalino would look for him. After all, in a sense, the two of them had already parted ways, and given their current positions, it would not be an exaggeration to say that they were enemies.

"It's me, how have you been, Dorag."

Borsalino spoke slowly.

Although it was Dragon's own decision to leave the Navy and establish the Revolutionary Army.

But without Borsalino's encouragement, it is hard to say how many more years Dorag would have stayed in the Navy.

"Haha, thanks to the World Government and the Celestial Dragons, the revolution is going smoothly!"

Dragon did not become hostile towards Borsalino just because of their different positions. Strictly speaking, the reason why he became the leader of the revolutionary army was inseparable from Borsalino's guidance.

It's a pity that Senior Borsalino didn't continue on the right path, but Dorag didn't mind it.

In his opinion, anyone who could say that the Celestial Dragons were guilty of the same crime as the common people would sooner or later return to the path he should take.

Until then, they will still be companions fighting side by side. Thinking of this, Dorag's tone became more eager.

"It's just that we haven't met in person. Didn't you tell me about your deputy a few months ago, the young man named Sabo..."

Borsalino certainly knew what Dragon was thinking, but he really didn't think highly of the current revolutionary army, and he didn't want to be a pioneer to fight with Im.

"Sabo? He is now the chief of staff of the Revolutionary Army. If you have the chance, you might as well meet him. Sabo is excellent in all aspects."

Dorag was like a parent showing off his child, and he couldn't wait to praise every hair on Sabo.

In his mind, Sabo is the best successor to lead the Revolutionary Army to continue resisting the World Government.

"Hmm... I remember you asked me to investigate Sabo..."

Borsalino narrowed his eyes slightly. Although Ace's life or death had little to do with him, for a major event like the Battle of Marineford, he couldn't just let the navy handle the damage, right?
If the only opponent is the Whitebeard Pirates, then destroying the pirates is the navy's duty, and the World Government can completely stay out of it.

However, if the Revolutionary Army gets involved, the World Government has no reason to sit idly by.

The Five Elders love to hide their cards so much, it's time for them to reveal a few. A great opportunity is before them, and they must find a way to kill one or two of the world government's top fighters.

Otherwise, even if the traitor Admiral Borsalino lets Im off the hook, it would be difficult for the pirates or the Revolutionary Army to force Im to reveal his cards or even his trump card.

It’s not that Borsalino doesn’t have the time or patience to wait, he just doesn’t want the gap to get any bigger. He can’t really expect Luffy to transform into the Sun God.

"Hmm? Do you have any clues?"

Dorag also recalled that Sabo had asked him to investigate his amnesia, but when he couldn't find any clues, he asked Borsalino for help.
