"Fucking useless! Even after bringing most of the Marines' military force, they couldn't even reach Vongola Family's headquarters, suffered a defeat, and even lost an Admiral? Sengoku, oh Sengoku, are you trying to win the worst Admiral of this century award or something?"
The long bearded Five Elders cursed loudly as he looked at Sengoku, who had a guilty look on his face.
He never imagined that they would suffer a humiliating defeat in a battle that they thought would be a certain victory.
Now, the whole world knew that the Marines were unable to set foot in the New World, and several representatives of World Government-affiliated countries wrote a petition to replace Sengoku as the Fleet Admiral.
"In addition to the Marines, we even lost three CP0 elite agents, including. This is a shameful record that hasn't happened in eight hundred years of World Government history!" The dreadlock Five Elders said coldly. Although it was the World Nobles' decision to dispatch the CP0, Sengoku was the one who took the blame.
And, to be honest, if Sengoku had managed to defeat Varia and Red Hair Pirates and then made it in time to Secon Island, would they be in this situation in the first place?
"All right, arguing won't change the current situation. Vongola Family has asserted their dominance, and they've already started making their move against Big Mom Pirates. Soon, there will only be two dominant forces in New World..." the bald Five Elders' eyes flashed with coldness, and his expression became serious. "The first is Vongola Family, and the other is Whitebeard Pirates. Even if the third force were to emerge, it would be Red Hair Pirates, but Red Hair Pirates and Vongola Family are in friendly terms, and from this perspective, it's safe to say that New World is basically controlled by Vongola Family. This is a situation we don't want to see. However, the Marines alone can no longer compete with that massive Family. So we need another force to step in and maintain the balance of the world!"
For the rulers, concepts like justice were just lips service, and they didn't bother thinking about putting them into practice. If they truly intended to uphold justice...
Well, first they should eliminate all Celestial Dragons, then commit suicide to set an example for the world.
In their eyes, balance was the most important. In eight hundred years, there had been exceptionally powerful entities in the world, but each time that happened, the World Government would create a counterbalancing force to maintain balance.
Only balance could ensure the World Government's reign over the world!
"Sengoku, you need to reflect on this matter thoroughly and step down!"
After Sengoku left, the blond bearded Five Elders turned to his colleagues and said, "Are you saying that we should deploy more CP0 agents? So far, we've lost five capable agents, and if we include that traitor, it makes six. Although deploying them can indeed can indeed balance out the power in New World, but I don't think it's necessary yet."
"Of course not, there's no need for that, and we don't exactly have to dirty our hands to deal with this. We just need to make a few adjustments. Have you forgotten that Vongola Family is not the only one who can use Dying Will Flame? There's another Family that now rules North Blue Underworld, and they also possess that power."
The bald Five Elders smirked as he continued, "Millefiore Family! Recently, Stussy has conducted a thorough investigation regarding this Family, and she concluded that Millefiore Family harbored enmity towards Vongola Family and their strength is not inferior to Vongola Family."
The bald Five Elders then took out a stack of documents and placed it on the table, then continued, "The leader of the Millefiore Family is called Byakuran, and according to Stussy's assessment, he possesses the strength that rivals Vongola Primo. He has Six Funeral Wreaths that are loyal to him, just like the Guardians of Vongola Family. Each of them possesses Admiral-level strength. However, the only one who has shown himself is a man named Zakuro, who has the same type of Dying Will Flame as Vongola Family's Storm Guardian
"It's indeed an unbelievably powerful force. I wonder how they managed to stay under the radar for so long. Hadn't they exposed themselves, even we would have no idea about them whatsoever. But according to this information, Millefiore Family seems slightly weaker than Vongola Family. After all, aside from the leader and the Guardians, Vongola Family also has Varia, Arcobaleno, and the External Advisors." The blond bearded Five Elders nodded. He acknowledged that the Millefiore Family was quite a formidable force, probably as strong as the Marines, but dealing with Vongola Family on their own didn't seem like an easy task.
"In addition to their leader Byakuran and the Six Funeral Wreaths, Millefiore Family also has two major forces, Black Spell and White Spell. Even so, they may not be able to defeat Vongola Family. But as long as we can keep Vongola Family in check, maintain the balance, and ensure that World Government remains the absolute ruler, it should be enough."
The bald Five Elders was well aware that dealing with a force that was as exceptionally united as Vongola Family was not an easy task.
But what they wanted was just balance. How long could Vongola Family maintain their dominance? No matter how strong Vongola Primo and his Guardians, they were just humans. Time would rob them of their power and lives. But as long as the balance was maintained, the World Government would rule this world forever.
"I think this approach is feasible. However, who should we send to negotiate with the Millefiore Family? It's definitely impossible for the Marines, and we can't afford to expose Stussy's identity yet." The long bearded Five Elders nodded in agreement.
At this moment, the blond bearded Five Elders slowly stood up and said, "Let me handle this, and I'll bring Aix and Em with me. I'll see just how strong this guy called Byakuran is with my own eyes!"
