"Blaming the dead now, won't do much in the current situation," Aokiji who sat one seat opposite to Akainu lazily said as he in sluggish way carried turn his body to the other side of the chair.
"What did their death bring hugh,...nothing but shame to the navy," Akainu coldly retorted as he moved the lit cigar to the left side of his mouth. He did not care if they dead, if hey did not bring down the pirates with them, their death were basically wasteful.
"Even though, two lieutenant generals were sent after him, Chaos' strength was still above them. How can they beware of this," Aokiji replied as he held of the right side of the blindfold and looked on Akainu.
"It doesn't matter what you say Kuzan, a defeat is still a defeat and because of such screw up, they have not only let down the marine but also failed justice," Akainu instantly hurled back in an sharp and stern tone.
"I under-,"
"Ok, enough," Sengoku who heard the constant bickering, banged the table while he spoke in strong authoritative voice.
Aokiji who was about to answer back to Akainu stopped, then let loose the blindfold, stretched out his hands on the desk then slowly laid on it. To the opposite side of Aokiji, Akainu just tighten his folded arms and snorted in dissatisfaction.
With these such responses, Sengoku words and actions obviously made them be at bay and silence once again dispersed across the room. But the constant crunches of rice crackers made the vice admiral's mouth repeatedly twitch, because of Garp's constant munching and unbothered self did not let the room reach a repressed state.
However, they who have remained silent from the very begin did not utter a word and Tsuru who helped herself to some hot cinnamon tea did not say anything either. Just like how Garp and Sengoku will quarrel daily, these two persons will also have constant disagreement between each other but its at a stage where they at each other's throats.
For the two think differently and so are there sense of justice and bottom lines levels are different. But there opposite elements also contribute to this, for ice and lava(fire) can never mix.
Garp who was uncaringly eat away did say from when the meeting began or when both admirals started. Even so, he who sat beside Aokiji, looked on Akainu with a few flashes running through his eyes.
Sengoku who has basically regained command and power over the office said deeply.
"The soldiers have already fallen and there is nothing can be done about that, however what our next be move be is an immediate response."
"So I what every navy base, telecommunication system, patrol units, network connections, to be on the look for this pirate group and when they do find their whereabouts, they must report back to me immediately."
Although, he never thought of taking side of any of the admirals, he was more incline to the carrying out of justice.

Florian Triangle-
In the foggy region, the Thriller Bark ship which was slowly passing throughout this gloomy area mouths gate was smashed up. The island which was had the chains connected to it was covered in a complete dark air and permeated through atmosphere layers of densely packed fogged slowly moves about.
Where it moved giant, short, medium built trees were seen, however the appearance of them was hollowed and disfigured unlike usual ones. The tree leaves which extended far and wide seemed to to the from of humans face. The veins which ran through the branches were thicker than a baby's hand and that's not all, all which dispersed leaves at different areas hand branches which looked like actual fingers.
The trunk of theirs formulated faceless outline or some of them were deformed monster looking faces. There were all not green, some where black which only had its branches spread out and the root of theirs were densely interlocked making it look like a complex network of veins. On the black. musky earth, there discombobulated insects which ran pass some skeleton hands which protruded from out the ground.
Also, at a timely period, graves which had a colour of black grey and white were seen surrounded by some pushed up skeleton heads. Then you would have the crows with blood reds eyes cawing in the dark and through of this a series of dark creepy hum would be heard.
With all of this said, there were made notable areas of the place which had skeleton figures which were in tacky clothes all about in a crystalized form. The white mist which comes off it interferes with the foggy air making it look white and grey.
Whether the be coming out from the earth, crawling on the ground, running with rusty blades from any area, jumping from the trees or the ones in armor moving in rows. They were all frozen solid but not just them, the trees the earth, the crows, graves etc, were in a white snowy crystalized. But on this frozen land, they were many ashes scattered across, making it seem like some were burnt to nothingness.
"These undead creatures are not very pleasing in the eyes of this god," Enel who whose bare feet jiggled with golden bracelets and surprisingly walking intentionally and unintentionally with the group in the middle said with annoyance as he zapped a zombie running towards him to ash.
" Who told you to come, you could have stayed on the ship as most times," Guzen who was somewhat near Enel said as he carried his dropped red eyes to the right of him.
"Where this god wants to go, no-one can stop," Enel who never even looked on Guzen answered in a absolute tone to sovereignty.
" Is that so,"
"I'm sure I could stop you," Guzen grinned in response as he cocked the knife at hi waist as turn to look on the figure was taller than him.
Enel eyes flashed with a snake ray of lightning, he did not respond nor did he act. He just stood there, talking with the mortal his a waste of time and if he really paid to him, he god would be lowering his self to the level to a lower being. Such a thing would be a defilement to his godhood and divinity.
Also the only reason he came was because sitting on the ship like that so often, a feeling of boredom would take over. So even though he tagged a long, he did not really travelled with.
"Humph,"
Seeing Enel behaviour Guzen let go of his blade and sneered. If Enel really started he doesn't mind beating some arrogance out of him.
"Just these wastes Moria to have to offer," Nixon who took another step with is right leg froze a section of the ground and where it dispersed six or so zombie generals who were running away froze instantly in there tracks.
From the time they set foot on the island, there were greeted with a zombie cerberus which is now a frozen cube sinking to the bottom of the ocean and many more after that. However, no matter how much of them they are, they accomplished nothing as they were a frozen in their tracks.
"Grrrrr...."
The other zombies which were all around who have seen another set of their companions became living/dead statues were horrified. They who were advancing slowly went back at a quicker speed, they do not dare to go in close to the barged in visitors.
"Well, this all of to do with the devil fruit he possess," Joshua who was in the center of 5 tall individual said in a complete calm voice.
"That can be noted, however the one before us does seem to have some skill," Motoa who stood at the right side of Joshua said as he looked on the zombie before him with a slightly narrowed eyes.
"Yohohohooo, it seems like I am outmatched here,"
The zombie before said, He had on several wraps of bandages over hi face and dulled grey coloured head. Over his zombie body, he wore a samurai robe which had on many black interlocked design. round his face he wore a blue shawl and his right zombie hand hold onto a sword which is at his face. He should go by the name Ryuma.
"It seems like the skeleton's shadow was stolen and attached him," Laffitte who was at the far left side of the group said as he tapped his feet.
"It does look so," Guzen replied as he look on the sword zombie with a broken smile.
Ryuma shook his head as he looks on his zombie partner John who had on a burgundy cloak and was in a battle stand with his swords. No matter how powerful he his he could not escaped being utterly frozen by the form ice. Although he is a zombie, he does feel little annoyed that his enemies are just nonchalantly speaking without really paying attention to him.
But he couldn't take it to heart as just one persons has basically freeze an entire, hundred of meters out the island which just movements of his feet. Everything within the area has crystalized to solid state with the cold air permeated all about. But that's, really why he said, he really uttered these words for in spite of him being turned into a zombie he is still an expert swordsman and so he still has is sharpness and experiences.
So when looking and facing the boy who was in a black cloak and the tall old man, their breath screamed a high level of sword aura. Something which somewhat made him remember of his past and that's not all the other members he were beside them did not seem easy.
This made him furrowed his brow deeply, then tightly held onto the sword.
"Since, you know your outmatched, join your companions as well, " Nixon who appeared at the right side of Ryuma tapped his shoulders as he said.
