At Loguetown’s port.
Smoker had a face full of displeasure as he held his cigar in his mouth. Because he saw Uehara in a marine uniform, he also knew that this guy had a higher rank than him.
Three years ago, Uehara was still a member of a criminal organization, Baroque Works. Three years later, Uehara transformed into Marine Vice Admiral.
Not to mention Smoker didn’t understand…
Even Sabo did not understand.
How did this Uehara Naraku do it?
This guy was just a nobody three years ago. He wanted to be a good person in Baroque Works. How did he become a Marine Vice Admiral?
“Hehehe, I really didn’t expect this…”
When Sabo saw Uehara, a smile appeared on his face, “We actually met again under such circumstances, Mr. Uehara…”
“Yes!”
Uehara held a glass of juice in his hand. He then shook his head and sighed, “I never thought that this would happen when we meet again…”
“…”
Aokiji’s expression was subtle.
Uehara seemed to be surprised by what he said… However, wasn’t this guy the one who made the plan to capture Sabo?
“I am going to hunt down Straw Hat Luffy.”
Smoker puffed out a smoke ring with a cigar in his mouth and casually said, “That Straw Hat Luffy must be a dangerous person. I must not let him go like this. You will be responsible for escorting this Revolutionary Army’s chief of staff!”
A Marine Captain dared to speak to the Admiral and Vice Admiral in such an unbridled manner. Smoker’s loose cannon tendencies were undoubtedly exposed.
However, Smoker’s knowledge was not wrong.
Because Smoker had personally seen Monkey D. Luffy face him with a calm smile just like Gol D. Roger before he died, he didn’t care about the life and death crisis at all and completely gave his life to this sea to decide.
Straw Hat Luffy would definitely be a dangerous person when he grew up in the future.
Uehara shook his head slowly and said, “Captain Smoker, you and Admiral Aokiji will be responsible for escorting Mr. Sabo. I will go hunt down Straw Hat Pirates…”
“Huh?”
Smoker’s eyebrows twisted, and he looked at Uehara with some displeasure, “Straw Hat Luffy escaped from my jurisdiction; what does it have to do with you…”
“I am a Marine Vice Admiral.”
Uehara took a sip of juice and looked at Smoker, “You are only a Marine Captain who is stationed in Loguetown…”
“Huh? a Marine Vice Admiral who hides in battle?”
Smoker couldn’t help but show a touch of contempt on his face. He already knew that when the battle between Dragon and Sabo began, Uehara Naraku, a Marine Vice Admiral, was hiding at Loguetown’s port.
Smoker didn’t care about Aokiji and Ain’s faces and continued coldly, “Why don’t you go and ask the gentlemen in Marineford when have I obeyed the orders of my superiors? Tashigi, prepare the warship to set off immediately!”
“Ah… this?”
Standing next to Smoker, the young female Marine Officer couldn’t help but hesitate.
Was there really no problem in disobeying orders in front of a Vice Admiral?
However, under Smoker’s gaze, Tashigi could only nod carefully. She was going to inform the soldiers at the base to prepare their warships.
To tell the truth…
Tashigi was still more afraid of Smoker.
Because Uehara looked like a kind person.
“Ain…”
Uehara took a sip of juice and turned to look at the beautiful adjutant beside him, “Captain Smoker of Loguetown base and his subordinates…”
“Wait!”
Aokiji scratched his head, looked at Smoker, and said, “Smoker, we will be responsible for escorting the Revolutionary Army’s chief of staff. As for the matter of chasing the Straw Hat Luffy, leave it to Vice Admiral Uehara.”
“Huh?”
Smoker looked at Aokiji with surprise.
Aokiji rubbed his eyebrows and said in a deep voice, “Compared to the fledgling Straw Hat Luffy, the identity of the Revolutionary Army’s chief of staff is more important… Carry out the order; otherwise, I can use my title as an Admiral to conduct military law against you!”
This sentence was unprecedentedly harsh.
It was not like Aokiji’s temper at all.
It was also the first time Smoker saw Aokiji say such harsh words. After frowning, he finally let go of the dispute with Uehara.
Uehara didn’t continue to pursue the matter. He took a deep look at Smoker before leaving Loguetown with his subordinates and slowly chased after the Straw Hat Pirates.
This way of doing things…
It was more like traveling.
Just as Uehara was still pursuing Luffy, the World Government had already received the news that Sabo, the Revolutionary Army’s chief of staff, had been arrested while the Revolutionary Army’s leader Monkey D. Dragon had escaped.
Enies Lobby.
Kabuto sat in his office, holding a Den Den Mushi in his hand. He smiled and said, “I just wanted to try to find out the traces of Dragon, the Revolutionary Army’s leader. I didn’t expect that I would really succeed this time…”
“Well done.”
An old man’s voice came out of the Den Den Mushi. He praised and continued, “This is a rare opportunity; unfortunately, we only caught the Revolutionary Army’s chief of staff…”
When he said this, the old man in the Den Den Mushi showed a hint of dissatisfaction, “If you only notify the marine in advance and dispatch enough people together, perhaps you will be able to catch Dragon this time…”
“Sir, I have already informed them.”
Kabuto continued to explain without changing his expression, “After I deduct this information, I immediately informed Fleet Admiral Sengoku and hoped that he could send three Marine Admirals to go together and capture the Revolutionary Army’s leader…”
When Kabuto said this, his face showed a little regret, “But Fleet Admiral Sengoku thinks that it is a waste to deploy the marine headquarters highest combat power in an imaginary speculation.”
“He is not wrong to say that…”
If the Five Elder Stars knew this in advance, they would certainly not agree to transfer the three strongest of the Marine to Loguetown in order to catch Dragon.
Because this is too outrageous!
As a result, Revolutionary Army actually appeared in Loguetown, and even the leader and the second in command of the Revolutionary Army appeared. This really made the Five Elder Stars regretful!
If they knew that today’s matter would happen like this, they would directly issue an order to Sengoku. The entire marine must unconditionally cooperate with the CP department!
After all…
Once they caught the Revolutionary Army’s leader, Monkey D. Dragon, and the Revolutionary Army’s chief of staff, Sabo, the Revolutionary Army’s existence was completely unnecessary!
The old man in the Den Den Mushi couldn’t help but sigh and said, “Forget it. Kabuto, don’t care about this. In the future, if you need to mobilize an Admiral, you can apply to us, and we will give you the right to mobilize.
Now, on behalf of the World Government, we will promote you to be the Chief Inspector of the Marine Headquarters, with the power to supervise and command all Vice Admirals and below at any time! “
“Yes.”
Kabuto pushed his glasses and continued to speak to the Den Den Mushi, “I already have a plan on my side recently… This plan is very likely to catch the Revolutionary Army in one fell swoop and show the majesty of World Government to the whole sea!”
“Tell me…”
The old man in the Den Den Mushi was curious.
“Public execution.”
Kabuto smiled and said, “Announce to the whole world that World Government publicly punished all the officers of the Revolutionary Army in Marineford’s headquarters!
However, it is difficult to guarantee that this incident will draw out Dragon again. According to my understanding of the Revolutionary Army in the past few years, Dragon might sit by and watch his subordinates die…”
This was actually quite difficult.
Because the Revolutionary Army was actually the least afraid of sacrifice.
Dragon, the leader of the Revolutionary Army, has been engaged in the free revolution for so many years. He doesn’t know how many comrades have been sacrificed. He may have long been used to it…
If he wanted to lure Dragon and the Revolutionary Army out, in fact, it’s quite difficult to achieve by just using the Revolutionary Army officers who were caught by the CP agents.
“Even you are not confident?”
The old man in the Den Den Mushi could not help but hesitate, “If we can’t lure out Dragon, is the purpose of this just to warn the people in the sea to be honest?”
“No, executing the officers of the Revolutionary Army is only a part of the plan.”
Kabuto smiled and slowly continued, “When we execute the Revolutionary Army’s officers, we will execute an important member of another powerful force in the sea and find a way to force that powerful force in the sea to come to disturb the execution…”
When Kabuto said this, he chuckled and continued, “If the Revolutionary Army thinks that they can have an ally who can act together, the probability of drawing them out is not low at all…”
“The person you want to catch… is an important member of Yonko(Four Emperors) Pirate Group?”
The old man in the Den Den Mushi hesitated and said in a deep voice, “In this case, the World Government and the marine will face a world-class war!”
“Yes…”
Kabuto’s voice suddenly became serious. He explained in a low voice, “Since the beginning of this year, new pirates in the sea have continued to emerge…
As long as we win, we can use World Government’s name to intimidate the countries in the sea again, showing the strength of the World Government. This plan is the most advantageous to the World Government, and I judge that our odds of winning are not low!”
“This plan…”
The old man in the Den Den Mushi was still hesitating.
After a long time, there were several old people arguing on the phone. They were the most powerful people in the world and also at the apex of the World Government.
After arguing for a while, these old men finally gave orders to Kabuto, “Kabuto; then, according to your ideas, start to collect intelligence slowly, and find a suitable ally for the Revolutionary Army and Dragon!”
“Yes, I have one more thing…”
When Kabuto said this, he could not help but smile, “Fleet Admiral Sengoku secretly promoted a Marine Captain to Vice Admiral, but this Vice Admiral did not play any role in Loguetown’s battle…”
