Chapter 635 Dark Clouds
...
Navy Headquarters
Marshal's Office
"What did you say! Sengoku!"
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, a big hole was punched into the innocent desk!
Hearing the noise, the navy soldiers on guard at the door rushed in to check the situation. After seeing that it was Marshal Sengoku and navy hero Garp arguing, the soldiers shrank their necks and immediately retreated, not forgetting to quickly close the door again.
"Hoo~ho~ho~!"
Garp's breathing was rapid and his chest heaved violently.
"Calm down, Garp!"
Zhan Guo adjusted the seagull hat on his head and said seriously.
"Is it necessary to go to this extent? I cannot accept this!"
“It’s not a question of whether you accept it or not!”
Zhan Guo's tone was firm.
"Why! Can't we just imprison him in Impel Down? Isn't the most vicious pirate in the world, who was declared by the Five Elders themselves, imprisoned in Impel Down? Why must Ace be publicly executed!"
Cap questioned loudly.
"Garp! If you calm down, you should be able to figure out why immediately. If you really can't figure it out, I can explain it to you in detail. But what's the point of me saying more when you're like this?"
"I'm calm now!"
"Barrett is a lone wolf. Executing him will not bring any benefits, and will also cause his extremely dangerous devil fruit to flow into the sea. But Ace is different! Not only has he inherited the sinful bloodline of the former Pirate King Roger, he is now the son of the Pirate King Whitebeard!"
Zhan Guo explained patiently.
"The World Government not only wants to cut off the bloodline of Pirate King Roger to strike a blow to the pirates, but also wants to take this opportunity to get rid of the elderly Whitebeard to show the world how powerful the World Government and the Navy are. Although they may also want to weaken the Five Pirate Kings and our Navy at the same time..."
"So this public execution is very important. It's not just about executing a pirate! It has extremely important significance for the future of the entire world! For this reason!..."
"I don't want to hear this. I just want to ask if you really have to do this! Is there no room for negotiation on this matter?"
"Damn it! That's why I said that if you don't calm down first, it will be a waste of time for me to explain!"
"It's not your grandson who's going to be executed, so of course you can stay calm!!"
Garp yelled.
"Asshole! Don't push me too far! Garp!"
Zhan Guo was instantly angry as well.
"Putting aside other things, as the main party involved! Don't you have any responsibility for the current situation! How is Roger's son still alive? And he is the grandson of your navy hero Garp? That's fine, but why didn't he choose to join the navy when he was raised by the navy, but instead went out to sea as a pirate! Can you give me an explanation first?"
"Humph! I have no regrets and no need to explain anything!"
"Good! Good! Good! What a good person to live up to his conscience!"
Zhan Guo was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, and said "good" three times in a row.
"You are so high-minded! You are so great! You think you have done all these things perfectly and no one knows about it, right? Who approved your leave every time you ran to the East China Sea? And your own son! Your own grandson! Who do you think is cleaning up your mess every time you get into such a big trouble! You bastard!"
"I didn't ask you to carry it for me. If those old guys want to cause trouble for me, let them do it!"
Garp felt a little guilty and lowered his voice, but he still spoke with gritted teeth.
"What bullshit are you talking about!"
"Humph!"
The two of them quarreled until their faces turned red and they turned their heads away.
"Crack!"
The door was pushed open.
Naval Chief of Staff Ahe walked in.
"Stop arguing, both of you. The whole of Marinford can hear you!"
"Garp, although we understand your feelings, the battle between the Navy and Whitebeard is irreversible! You should understand that!"
"Humph! I don't want to argue with you!"
In a one-on-two situation, Garp simply chose to say goodbye.
"Hey Garp! Where are you going? I haven't finished yet, and I have an important meeting later!"
Garp pushed the door open and walked out, and Sengoku shouted behind him.
"I've heard enough. It's nothing but orders from the World Government! I won't be attending the combat meeting against Whitebeard. I'm going to Impel Down now!"
"Asshole, what do you want to do, Garp!"
Zhan Guo's face turned pale and his fists clenched.
"No matter what, I won't forget my position! If you are worried, stop me now!"
Karp spoke in a firm tone and walked out without looking back, his back looking a little more dejected.
"hateful!"
Zhan Guo was about to go forward to chase but was stopped by Ahe.
"Forget it, let him go! You know that Garp will never betray the justice behind him!"
As the war preparation meeting was held, orders began to be issued from Marinford, and the huge war machine of the navy began to operate in full swing.
The opponent is one of the three legendary pirates of the old times, who is as famous as Roger the Pirate King. He is also the man who is recognized as the closest to the throne of Pirate King on the sea. He is the user of the superhuman Tremor-Tremor Fruit and has the power to destroy the world! The strongest man in the world, Edward Newgate!
As well as the Pirate Emperor Group, the Whitebeard Pirates and all affiliated pirate groups under Whitebeard.
Facing such a powerful enemy, the navy did not dare to be negligent in the slightest. A tense atmosphere began to spread throughout the entire naval headquarters, and the dark clouds of war quickly enveloped the entire sea!
...
Admiral's Office.
After the meeting, Ajin returned to his office alone.
He sat in front of the large window facing the sea, looking at the sea under the sunset and the bustling town behind the naval port.
Hundreds of thousands of naval dependents live there. It is the time to get off work. Figures in white uniforms are walking briskly home, disappearing into the houses with smoke rising from chimneys like birds returning to their nests.
"Whoo~"
Ajin frowned and smoked one cigarette after another.
"Bang bang bang!"
There was a knock at the door, but it did not wake him from his daze.
"Bang, bang, bang! Boom!"
After knocking on the door without any response, the door was kicked open impatiently.
Then a blue-haired, pretty-faced female naval commander walked in. She put her hands on her hips and asked with a somewhat arrogant look on her face.
"What's wrong? Changing to the melancholy route? Do you want to run for the Navy's military commander? General White Dragon!"
Upon hearing this, Ajin turned around. He was not angry when he saw the person breaking into his office.
"Don't make fun of me, Brigadier General Bi Ya. What do you want from me?"
Ajin stood up, patted his butt and asked absentmindedly.
"What are you talking about? Of course I came to ask the general who is so happy that he doesn't want to return home, when he plans to go back!"
Bi Ya walked to the seat behind the desk and sat down.
"Well, I..."
There was a hint of hesitation in Ajin's eyes.
