Marineford, Fleet Admiral Sengoku's office.
"Hey, hey! You're not kidding, are you?" Kuzan, who had previously slept in the office, immediately removed his blindfold.
"Kizaru is a partner of the Pirates? This isn't funny at all, Fleet Admiral Sengoku."
"Let me investigate Kizaru." Akainu stood up from his seat, "If that person really betrayed our Marines, then I will execute him myself."
Since long ago, Akainu felt that Kizaru was always lazy and did not properly carry out Marine justice.
If it was a matter of personality, then Akainu wouldn't mind it.
But now he heard that Kizaru was a member of the Pirates? Hearing this, Akainu felt that Kizaru was really acting like a secret agent sent to the Marines as a spy!
"I think so too Kuzan, I don't believe that Kizaru is a spy myself."
"Kizaru has been with our Marines since he was young, and he has stayed for many years."
"The suspicion that he is a secret agent of the Pirates is extremely low. If he really is a spy sent by that [Blueplanet] group, then it is really scary."
"If a spy reaches the rank of Admiral in the Marines, then this thing is the biggest joke!" Sengoku expressed his thoughts.
After taking a breath, he continued. "Kizaru is currently on vacation, I'll try calling him to confirm this in person."
*Pulu-pulu, Kacha!*
"Hello, with whom?" A lazy voice sounded from the Den Den Mushi.
"This is Sengoku. Kizaru, where are you now?"
"Ah?! Fleet Admiral Sengoku, well... I'm currently on vacation. Was the reason you called me because of work?"
"Kizaru now is not the time for you to complain. Immediately report your current location." Sengoku didn't play along.
"Hey~ Seriously... your serious face can even be seen from the Den Den Mushi." Kizaru, who was resting on an uninhabited island, looked at the Den Den Mushi, who was replicating Sengoku's expression.
"Damn Kizaru! Tell your location now!" Hearing Kizaru's lazy tone, Sakazuki shouted angrily.
"Eh? Sakazuki? Did I offend you? If that's the case, then I really want to apologize." Kizaru felt that the situation seemed serious this time, he immediately continued. "Right now I'm on an uninhabited island in East blue."
"East Blue?" Sengoku's eyes flashed.
"Go to Garp and help him with his mission in East Blue. There is an important temporary task for him and you to do."
"Huh? What kind of task would Vice Admiral Garp and I need to do together?" Kizaru asked with a confused face.
"Is it task about attacking one of the Yonko? But that doesn't seem right, it's in East Blue anyway..."
"Don't ask too many questions. When you get to Garp's ship, immediately follow his orders." Sengoku gave the order.
"This matter is an urgent matter, and you must leave immediately. All right, that's it." After finishing speaking, Sengoku hung up the phone.
"Again, my rare vacation was ruined..." Kizaru stood up with lazy movements.
"Forget it, it looks like there really is a very serious problem. Then let's go see Vice Admiral Garp."
***
"Garp, once Kizaru arrives, make sure to keep a close eye on him. For now, I will order the soldiers in Loguetown to locate the masked man."
"If the masked man is not seen with Drake's Pirates, then take care of Kizaru temporarily. If the masked man is, then bring Kizaru to catch them."
"Alright, alright. After this mission is over, I'll apply for leave, do you understand?"
"However this tough task is a bit unsuitable for an old man like me, I need to rest, haha!" Garp laughed.
"Garp you bastard! Do your chores first, then we'll talk about your vacation." Sengoku immediately hung up the phone.
"Fleet Admiral, do you think Kizaru is really a member of the Pirates?" Kuzan asked in a serious tone.
"Kizaru is in East Blue at the moment, which is too coincidental. But, whether Kizaru is a pirate or not, we will know about this matter soon. We just have to wait for Garp's report." Sengoku answered calmly.
"I will make a report to the World Government first."
