Naval Headquarters.
Marshal's office.
Sengoku stared blankly at the den-den mushi who was hung up.
For a while, he was speechless.
A few seconds later, a large number of blue veins appeared on his forehead, and his whole body trembled with anger.
boom!
"Damn Rifan, what the hell is this guy doing?!"
Sengoku slammed his fist on the desk and cursed angrily.
"Hahaha, that kid Rifan is really interesting.
"Not just wanting to replace Moria as Shichibukai."
"Now he plans to accept him as his subordinate."
"And the reason for accepting him as his subordinate is because he has taken a fancy to one of Moria's subordinates! Bwahahahaha!"
Garp laughed and said while stuffing the senbei into his mouth.
"Asshole Garp, you can still laugh!"
"Are you really a Marine when you look like this?!"
Garp's laughter made Sengoku feel even more depressed.
He directly raised his hand and snatched the bag containing the senbei in Garp's hand.
And poured it completely into his mouth in one breath.
"Damn it, my senbei!"
Garp wanted to stop it, but it was too late.
"Hmph, this is obviously the senbei you took from me."
Sengoku wiped the senbei residue from his face, and he felt a little relieved seeing Garp's depressed look.
"Sengoku, I misunderstood you, so you are so stingy."
Garp shook his head, sighed and continued:
"Speaking of which, that kid Rifan intends to make Moria his subordinate."
"Sengoku, what are you going to do about it?"
"Looking at the situation over there, it seems that Rifan has accepted Moria."
hearing his words.
Sengoku frowned.
How could he not know the information contained in the previous conversation?
Rifan asked Gion to talk to him first, making it clear that he already took Moria as his subordinate.
Asking Gion to inform himself first is just to prepare himself.
"Moria, it's not that I can't give him to Rifan."
"But he can't be handed over to him so easily."
After pondering for a while, Sengoku spoke.
"Good guy! So your previous veto was all fake?"
"Have you prepared the psychological expectation for Rifan to accept Moria?"
Garp's eyes widened.
He looked at his old friend in surprise.
"After all, in the agreement between Rifan and Marine, there is no agreement to kill Moria."
"Besides, as the Marine side, there is no reason to dictate who Rifan accepts as a partner.
"The only special thing about this thing is that Moria is a Shichibukai."
"Since there is no way to change Rifan's decision to accept Moria."
"It's better to take advantage of this and get some benefits from Rifan.
Sengoku sat down again and calmly analyzed.
"So, what are you going to do?"
Garp asked curiously.
"So far, we have had many speculations about Rifan's abilities.
"It is probably speculated that he has the power to use every crew member of the Black Pearl Pirates, but this needs further verification."
"Besides, Rifan may have a powerful ability to enhance the strength of his crew."
"It shouldn't just be because Rifan has a strong knowledge base in teaching them."
"More likely, it's because Rifan possesses some kind of Devil Fruit power that can speed up the cultivation speed of others."
"Of course, this also needs to be verified."
Sengoku looked at the analysis report on Rifan on the desk and said.
"So, you plan to use the fact that Rifan wants to recruit Moria to confirm his information with Rifan?"
"Sengoku, you think Rifan will reveal his secret easily?"
"If he was willing to reveal the information, Gion and Hina would have noticed it until."
"Compared to this, let me follow Zephyr, go to Rifan together, and confirm his situation in front of him."
Garp took a sip of his tea.
And said in a very casual tone.
"Garp, don't think I don't know what you're up to."
"Tell you, it is a certainty that Rifan will become Shichibukai to participate in the war with the Whitebeard pirates."
"The Five Elders are also looking forward to it."
"Even if you want to take advantage of the fact that the Marine and the World Government have not announced to the world that he has become Shichibukai, it is impossible to arrest him."
Sengoku glanced at Garp and warned him.
"Hump!" Garp smacked his mouth: "If you want to say no just say so, why are you yelling at me?"
"Also, Sengoku, can't I go and meet that kid in person?"
"That kid slipped away from me earlier."
"Besides, can you rest assured that nothing will happen to Zephyr?"
"According to Gion's previous report, Rifan and his team have defeated Moria and repelled Kuma."
"If Zephyr fights Rifan because of Ain."
"Things might get complicated."
"You know, now Zephyr is far less calm than before."
"If he is stimulated by anything, there is no guarantee that he will not attack Rifan."
Sengoku frowned when he heard this.
How could he not know that Zephyr was not as calm as before.
And according to Rifan's character, he is very likely to take advantage of Ain.
If Rifan really did this.
And was known by Zephyr.
Maybe Garp's prophecy will come true.
"That's it!" Sengoku shook his head and said:
"Garp, I agree with you to go after Zephyr."
"But you have to promise me."
"Don't deliberately trouble Rifan."
"You are strong."
"But Rifan's ability is very strange, maybe he can escape from your hands like last time."
"If in the end Rifan is not only unable to become the Marine's helper, but even turns against us and becomes the Whitebeard Pirates' helper."
"We Marine, many people will die in the war with the Whitebeard Pirates."
After Sengoku finished speaking, Garp's face also became extremely serious.
Although he didn't want Rifan to become Shichibukai, and he will assist the Marine in executing Ace,
However, his position as a Marine made him unwilling to push Rifan to the opposite of Marine.
After all, in that case, as Sengoku said, many, many Marines will die.
Especially since Sengoku had previously defaulted on Rifan twice.
What if Marine defaults on the deal with Rifan again.
Garp felt that Rifan might kill all the Marines on the Black Pearl on the spot.
"I know."
"I will handle this matter properly."
Garp looked serious and nodded solemnly.
Immediately, he turned around and walked out of the gate of the Marine Marshal's office, intending to go to the Naval Headquarters port to prepare for sailing.
"Hopefully nothing will go wrong."
Sengoku watched Garp's leaving back, sighed faintly, and his sight fell on the analysis report about Rifan again.
"Do you want Moria to be your subordinate?"
"Rifan, are you really just interested in the appearance of that female subordinate of Moria?"
"Or, her Devil Fruit ability is very good?"
"Or, do you actually want to further strengthen your power through Moria?"
"In any case, if you want to get Moria, you have to pay something of value."
Sengoku muttered to himself, picked up the den-den mushi beside him and pressed a familiar number.
After a while.
A calm voice came from the opposite side of the den-den mushi.
"Anything, Sengoku?"
"Elder Stars, I have something to report about Rifan and Moria."
Sengoku's expression sank, and he quickly transferred the information from Gion to Five Elders.
"This man, Rifan, really can't calm down."
"However, he wants to take Moria as a partner because of a woman."
"This seems to be in line with his character."
The blond-haired Elder who was in charge of answering the phone raised his eyebrows and said with a sigh.
"It doesn't matter, it's just a Moria."
"Since Rifan can defeat him and also has the ability to push back Kuma."
"I think Moria's strength is far lower than our judgment."
"Sengoku, Rifan wants to accept Moria, no questions asked."
"But just as you think, try your best to get useful things from Rifan."
The blond Elder continued.
"Understood, with your support, I will be more at ease here."
"This time, I will definitely get the information we want from him."
At this moment, Sengoku's tone was extremely firm.
It's just that he doesn't know that Rifan has already made preparations to reveal some false information to him.
He even plans to strengthen Hina a little bit, so that the Marine and World Government will be more convinced of the information he revealed.
the call ended.
The blonde Elder hung up the call and looked at the other four colleagues in the office.
Elders, with curly white hair spoke at this moment:
"Now that Rifan has defeated Moria, the news that he will succeed Moria as the new Shichibukai is almost ready."
"The next step is to let him hand over his blood factor."
"Whatever his ability is, if we can create a second generation pacifist based on his lineage factor."
"The combat power of the World Government can also be improved accordingly."
Hearing this, the four Elders nodded in agreement.
The blonde Elder put down the den-den mushi in his hands, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and said:
"Rifan is a man who will accept Moria for a woman."
"If this is true, it means that he likes women more than we think."
"This point, we can make use of it."
"Using his pedigree to make pacifists is a good thing."
"But if we can use women to make him ours, that's also a good thing."
