Chapter 174 Blackbeard
"Everyone, pay attention to safety during the descent!"
Conis' final voice came.
Everyone waved goodbye to her.
Everyone: "Wait a minute, is it falling?"
Conis: "Hey!"
"Ahhhh!!"
After a huge octopus caught the Meili, everyone's frightened souls were put back into their bodies.
"Ahaha~ It's fun, like a roller coaster."
Luffy laughed.
Nami wiped the frightened tears from the corners of his eyes: "How funny!!"
After an 8-hour hot air balloon octopus trip, without Luffy making trouble, everyone landed in a bay steadily.
Suddenly countless searchlights lit up from all directions, shining on the Mei Li.
"Nani? Where have we landed?"
Facing the harsh light, Nami looked around.
Luffy grinned: "Finally, I can eat something good."
Everyone looked at Luffy "four two three" strangely: "Huh? Do you know where this is?"
Luffy smiled lightly, returned to the cabin and put on the long-lost justice cloak.
At this time, a series of alarms sounded, small boats approached the Meili, and Marine soldiers jumped onto the boats one after another.
"Stop and put your hands up!"
The first non-commissioned officer raised his gun and shouted, suddenly he saw Luffy's attire and epaulettes: "Centre, Mr. Vice Admiral!?"
Luffy flicked his cloak: "Little ones, let's go!"
At this time, the huge pattern of G8 on the wall caught everyone's eyes.
"Marine Base?!"
"I didn't expect the famous Vice Admiral Monkey D. Luffy to visit my small branch base."
Jonathan smiled and handed Luffy a glass of red wine, "Still in this unexpected way. 17
"Ahaha, it was an accident, it was purely an accident, and I will trouble you to overhaul my boat this time." Luffy smiled and greeted this strict wife, Vice Admiral.
Fort G-8, known as the big and improper Marine Fort,
But Luffy knows that it is definitely not easy to be called an iron-walled fortress on the Grand Line.
The damaged warships parked in the ship repair yard, as well as the wounded transported, are enough to illustrate the contribution of this fortress to peace within the most jurisdictional area.
It is also the strength of the g8 fortress, which leads to the scarcity of pirates in the sphere of influence, which makes the fortress look redundant.
As everyone knows, if there is no G8 fortress, this sea area will be in chaos.
After experiencing this journey, the Meili is a civilian sloop, and even though Luffy has been intentionally protecting the Meili in this life, it is still broken at this time.
Although the keel has not yet broken, the frequent water leakage has shown that the Meili is already overwhelmed.
So this time Luffy specially changed the route and landed again to the G8 fort just to strengthen the Mei Li.
As Luffy has discovered through Rinnegan, the ship spirits of the Merry have begun to awaken.
In order to keep the ship spirit, Luffy decided to make an attempt.
That is the paradox of the Ship of Theseus.
If the wood on Theseus' ship is gradually replaced until all the wood is not the original wood, is the ship still the same ship?
The same is true for the Meili,
Luffy is going to update the parts of the Mei Li one by one except for the keel before arriving at the capital of seven waters.
Wait until the capital of seven waters to replace the Adam tree bought by Franky as a keel.
See if you can inherit the ship elf.
After all, the Merry in the original book has undergone many repairs, and the ship elf is still the ship elf of the Merry.
Looking at the young Vice Admiral in front of him, Jonathan was filled with emotion. He knew that Luffy had a much brighter future than his own Vice Admiral assigned to the branch.
"You're welcome, your crew has also helped us a lot. The Marines who set off were attacked by Jack Scissorhands. The current medical facilities are insufficient, thanks to your ship doctor.
Jonathan was equally polite.
"By the way, why does Luffy Vice Admiral come to my place when you have time? Don't you know that the headquarters is looking for you like crazy?" Jonathan looked at Luffy who was enjoying the wine leisurely and said strangely.
"Looking for me? Why are you looking for me?"
Luffy asked in surprise,
As a face project, Marine Vice Admiral doesn't seem to have any urgent matters, so he needs to do it himself?
"Don't you know? Something big is happening in New World!"
Jonathan said with a serious face.
"Huh? What's the big deal?"
Luffy was stunned when he heard the words. If the timeline of the original story is followed, the biggest thing is probably that Ace should meet Blackbeard and be caught.
Now Ace is sent away by himself, and Blackbeard is fooled by himself to give up the goal of Ace, because Mom's tea party is not on time.
It is right that we are in a relatively peaceful period now. Wherever big things happen, it is still in the New World.
Jonathan looked at the puzzled Luffy and confirmed that he was not aware of the latest news.
So he took out several newspapers of different dates.
It reads impressively:
【Whitebeard Pirates, one of the Four Emperors, was targeted by mysterious people!】
[Half of the 46 large fleets under his command were attacked, and the captain disappeared! 】
【Whitebeard was furious, and issued a sky-high reward to ask for relevant information!】
[Blackbeard Pirates Blackbeard Marshall · D · Teach publicly shouted to Whitebeard, admitting that the attack on the Whitebeard was his own doing, Whitebeard chased and killed the Blackbeard Pirates in anger, the Blackbeard Pirates successfully escaped from New World, the world was shocked!】
[The Blackbeard Pirates brought 20 captains of the big ships to join the World government in exchange for the position of Seven Warlords of the Sea...】
【World government openly selects Shichibukai, Blackbeard Pirates successfully selected! Marshall · D · Teach new Seven Warlords of the Sea!】
"Pfft!!!"
The red wine in Luffy's mouth spurted far away in one gulp, and he didn't recover for a long time.
"Ruthless!"
Luffy held back a word for a while.
At this moment, he had already thought that Teach was cruel in order to kill Whitebeard.
Taking advantage of the familiarity with the Whitebeard Pirates, directly captured less than half of the big ship group under the Whitebeard Pirates?
Could it be that the legendary quality cannot be combined with quantity?
Luffy took a closer look and found that they were not very famous pirates. The only familiar one was Scuyard from the Eddy Spider Pirates who once stabbed Whitebeard in the back...
If there are one or two captains, maybe Whitebeard will indeed put pressure on the Marine branch for the sake of the overall situation.
But the fucking Blackbeard pirates caught half of them directly!
If this cannot be saved, then the status of the Whitebeard pirate group Four Emperors will basically be gone.
After all, the so-called Four Emperors can't be established simply because they are powerful, but they also have enough influence to occupy the territory.
What is the emperor?
Only subjects who have their own subjects, territories, bases, and control are called emperors.
Those who burn, kill and loot everywhere can only be called thieves and pirates!
At this time, the Four Emperors don't need to take the initiative to rob 5.8 at all, they all have their own territory,
The islanders on the territory will pay tribute to the Four Emperors for protection.
An existence similar to a puppet regime has been formed.
However, this regime is based on loose management.
Kaido's violence, red-haired loyalty, aunt's blood, and Whitebeard's affection.
Once Whitebeard refuses to save his 'son', the only thing waiting is the disintegration of the big ship group. After all, the Whitebeard pirate group is most famous for protecting the weak.
Once your advantage is gone, you are not the only Four Emperors, and everyone will find a more reliable backstage. After all, everyone is a pirate, and there is no need to accompany you to death.
Luffy looked at the news papers and said with emotion: "As expected of being the only pirate in the entire pirate world, he is cruel to others, and he is also cruel to himself."
And at this moment,
Usopp, who was repairing the ship with Uncle Megawa, ran in panting:
"Lu, Luffy! Marine, Marine Marshal's call!".
