Chapter 152: Respective Paths

Chapter 152: Respective Paths

"Golden Lion and Roger Pirates clashed again? They really are an restless bunch."

Inside Marineford, due to the Roger Pirates and Golden Lion Flying Pirates starting a war, the Navy also heightened its vigilance.

After all, a Pirate Crew conflict of this level could very likely develop into a large-scale chaotic battle affecting the entire New World. At that time, island forces belonging to either Roger or Golden Lion would inevitably clash.

Even individuals like Whitebeard Edward Newgate, Charlotte Linlin, Kaido who recently escaped from the Navy Research Base, the elusive Thunder God Nicholas, and Pirates full of ambition might all get involved. Therefore, the Navy must be prepared to prevent the most dangerous situation from occurring.

"Isn't this a good thing? Let them kill each other."

Zephyr, wearing a Marine Coat, sat on the sofa and said coldly. Obviously, after the incident a few years ago, all he had left for Pirates was disgust.

"The infighting of those Sea villains is actually more beneficial to us, but we must prevent the birth of the Strongest existence during their mutual slaughter. The reason why Pirates cannot confront the Navy head-on is because of their disunity and mutual hostility.

Even Rocks, the overlord of the Sea back then, failed to gather all the Pirates together.

Once an existence capable of leading the Pirates of the New World appears, it will be a huge disaster for the entire world."

Sengoku said in a deep voice.

"Sengoku is right. What we want is a stable Grand Line. After several years of sorting things out, the Four Seas and the first half of the Grand Line are almost completely under the Navy's control. What we are waiting for now is an opportunity to directly wipe them all out when those guys in the New World are fighting to the point of mutual destruction and there is a lack of successors!"

Tsuru, as the Navy Staff Officer and person in charge of the North Blue cleanup mission, was obviously very satisfied with the suggestion Dorag had made back then. Moreover, with the Navy's large-scale actions, the number of Pirates has directly decreased, and it can be clearly felt that the public security of the Four Seas has significantly improved.

"By the way, Garp, where's Dorag?"

Sengoku looked at Garp and asked.

"Ah? That Kid, I don't know where he went. I haven't contacted him for almost half a year."

Garp, who was sleeping, was woken up and said with a blank face.

"You guy, you don't even know about your own Son!?"

Hearing this, veins popped on Sengoku's forehead. Obviously, Dorag had been making him very worried recently. After all, how could a Navy Headquarters Vice Admiral disappear for a period of time every now and then, even though he would report his work to the Headquarters on time.

But after all, he already had a Code Name and was almost certainly the Navy's next Admiral candidate. Being so unmotivated was a bit unreasonable, right?

"Forget it, that Kid has his own opinions. Anyway, I can't control him. Oh right, I heard that those little guys in the Training Camp are about to graduate. Give me a few, I'll just take them to the New World to join in the fun."

Garp said to Sengoku with a grin.

"Get lost. That guy you brought back last time was assigned to your Ship. Also, Tsuru, later I'll have Issho report to your Side."

Compared to his attitude towards Garp, Sengoku's tone towards Tsuru was obviously much gentler.

"Oh, is it Issho, that blind Swordsman who is already famous in the Navy Headquarters?"

Tsuru asked with interest.

Sengoku nodded: "This is the result of my discussion with Zephyr. Issho is a Man with Justice in his heart and full of compassion for the Weakest. Although he is blind, his heart to defend Justice cannot be ignored. However, it is precisely because of this that I hope Tsuru you can take him by your Side and nurture him."

"Is that so? I understand."

Tsuru nodded to indicate that she understood. Although Sengoku and Zephyr did not explicitly say it, judging from their expressions, it was obvious that they wanted to protect that young Man named Issho. After all, People who are full of enthusiasm for Justice are often more likely to question Justice after seeing more Things.

"Alright, then it's time to discuss the most important Thing today, which is how we should deal with the Roger Pirates? You must have all seen the Intelligence about that."

When it came to Intelligence, it could be clearly felt that the expressions of everyone present became serious, even Garp's expression became very solemn.

"I saw it. It's truly unimaginable that that Strongest Man will soon be dying."

Tsuru tapped her finger lightly on the table and said with emotion. It could be said that this group of People had dealt with Roger a lot. Whether it was Garp, Sengoku, or Zephyr, they had all clashed with Roger. Even she had formulated many Plans against the Roger Pirates. Now, suddenly receiving the News that this old opponent was about to die was truly somewhat like a dream.

"Then Tsuru, what's your Opinion?"

Sengoku looked at Tsuru and asked.

"The disbandment of the Roger Pirates is already foreseeable, so the threat of the Roger Pirates to the Navy in the future can basically be reduced to zero. We have absolutely no need to deal with the Roger Pirates with Full Power. After all, it is unimaginable what kind of Things an opponent in a desperate situation will do.

You should know that with Roger's Personality, he would not take the action of directly conquering a country, but he did it not long ago, and that country that lost all its troops was annexed by another country a week later.

My Opinion is that we continue to pursue Roger, but don't push him too hard. Our Target will mainly focus on the Whitebeard Pirates and Flying Pirates!"

After speaking, Tsuru paused, thought for a while, and then frowned and said: "And as soon as possible, let the Navy Intelligence Department and CP Department speed up the Intelligence gathering on the Freedom Pirates. I always feel that a guy like Nicholas suddenly becoming silent is definitely planning something."

While the Navy high-level was discussing, on the Back Mountain of the Training Camp not far from the Navy Headquarters, Issho was sitting cross-legged on a Rock, looking at the Port with Warship standing in rows in the distance.

"Mr. Dorag, you've come."

Issho said without turning his head. And behind him, in the Open Ground where no one was there, Dorag's Figure appeared from within with a gust of breeze.

"What truly keen perception, Lord Issho."

Dorag looked at Issho's back and showed his signature smile.

"It seems Nicholas was right after all. Mr. Dorag has already made his choice."

Issho said with a sigh.

Dorag also stepped forward and stood beside Issho, looking at the magnificent Navy Headquarters in the distance.

"The Navy's ideals conflict with my ideals, and the symbiotic relationship between the Navy and the World Government means that within the Navy, I cannot change the Navy and this world.

This world should not be like this. So, Lord Issho, are you willing to help me? Let's change this world together!"

Dorag extended an invitation to Issho.

"Mr. Dorag, when Nicholas recommended me to join the Navy, he told me that I could see more of the essence of this world. And now I have indeed seen many bad Things, but I have also seen many shining Things within the Navy. So I will continue to stay in the Navy and try to change it."

Issho said in a deep voice. Within the Navy, he saw People oppressing Ordinary People and colluding with Pirates, but he also saw Navy soldiers fighting Pirates to the death to protect Ordinary People. Even though they were so Weakest, they dared to throw a Fist at the Strongest when protecting those weaker than themselves.

"Then I wish us both a bright future, Lord Issho."

When the voice fell, Dorag's Figure had already disappeared.

"I hope we can see the World Dawn arrive. After all, the time before Dawn arrives is the Darkest and most chaotic."

After Issho finished speaking in a low voice, he got up, picked up his Staff Sword, tapped it on the Ground, and walked down the mountain.
