"this…"
Spandine wiped the cold sweat from his brow, how dare he tell Saint Shalria and Saint Charlos what he had in mind.
You know, he planned to knock Saint Shalria unconscious and send her to Rifan's bedside.
As for Saint Charlos, since he has taken a fancy to those beautiful crew members of Rifan, Spandine also has plans to send him to the crew of the Black Pearl Pirates so a conflict can happen.
Not to mention, he's putting the Celestial Dragons in danger.
In such a way, how could he dare to tell it to them?
"Huh? Could it be that you are deceiving us?"
"Spandine, don't think that you can lie to Celestial Dragons just because you are an official of the World Government."
"It's just right my slave is gone."
"I can find a way to make you - my slave too."
Seeing that Spandine was speechless for a long time, Saint Shalria immediately frowned.
"That's right! I've been waiting a long time, Spandine."
"Nico Robin, Nami, and others."
"This is what you promised me!"
Saint Charlos, with a dull face, also looked at Spandine unkindly with his snot dangling from his nose.
"G-great Creators."
"I didn't lie to you."
"Actually, I have already arranged related plans."
"Just because that man Rifan never came to Sabaody Archipelago."
"That's why I can't implement my plan."
"And this plan cannot be explained in a short while."
"Please wait a while, both of you."
"I promise you, wait until Rifan and his Black Pearl Pirate crew come to Sabaody Archipelago.
"I will implement the plan immediately."
Wiping the sweat from his brow, Spandine quickly explained to the two Celestial Dragons.
He is also quite helpless.
He originally thought that Rifan would become a Shichibukai only after he came to the Sabaody Archipelago, or even went to the Holy Land.
It turned out that the Marine and World Government were so anxious to send related news.
Fortunately, Rifan's becoming Shichibukai is within the estimated risk range of his plan.
Plus the Five Elders gave him orders to confuse Rifan with women.
Therefore, his plan can still be carried out.
"Spandine, you are not lying to me, are you?"
Saint Shalria asked with a frown.
"I won't dare!"
"Please believe me! Lord Five Elders has given me the order to receive Rifan and his party."
"At that time, I will invite two Celestial Dragons to participate in my plan."
"By then, I think you'll be able to get what you want."
"Also, don't you think that a man who has become a Shichibukai is a slave worth playing with?"
Spandane rubbed his hands together and said to Saint Shalria.
Hearing this, Saint Shalria took a deep look at Spandine.
After a long time, she nodded:
"Forget it, I'm just trusting you once."
"I hope you won't let me down this time."
"Also, don't make me wait too long."
"Come on, brother Charlos, we have to go to the slave auction next."
Saint Shalria looked at his brother and said.
"However, I want to see these women now."
Charles Ross frowned and spoke.
"Even if you want to see it now, there is no way."
"If we don't go to the slave auction now."
"Perhaps even the slaves will be auctioned off."
Saint Shalria palace said, not daring to waste time, directly took his brother's hand and walked towards the door.
After a while, they disappeared before Spandine's eyes.
Seeing this scene, Spandine breathed a sigh of relief.
"Rifan, you have to come to Sabaody Archipelago quickly."
"According to the Five Elders' orders, I have to "entertain" you well."
After Spandine closed the door, his whispered words were full of resentment towards Rifan.
And if he knew that Rifan is still in the group of beauties composed of Nami, Bonney, and Carina, he would probably be even more resentful.
Somewhere on the Grand Line.
On an extremely remote island, the entire island is covered by white sand.
The island is called "Baldigo" and is the general base of the Revolutionary Army.
The center of the island.
A group of cadres of the Revolutionary Army gathered together as usual to discuss their actions for the next year.
"Boss, something serious happened."
"Big news."
Just as Dragon was listening to the report of the recent work by the commanders of the various regions of the world, Koala, a cadre of the Revolutionary Army, ran over with a stack of newspapers.
"What happened, Koala."
"I see you are in a hurry."
When Koala passed Belo Betty, commander of the Eastern Region of the Revolutionary Army, the corners of her mouth raised, and she asked Koala curiously.
"Sister Betty, it's about that man Rifan."
Koala stopped and said to Belo Betty after squatting for a breath.
"Rifan!"
Belo Betty raised her eyebrows, and immediately took the newspaper in Koala's hand.
Similarly, the top leaders of the Revolutionary Army, including Dragon and Sabo, looked over curiously.
Rifan is now a figure who has attracted the attention of many revolutionary troops.
This is not just because Kuma once said that Rifan is likely to have a deep relationship with Ivankov, the founder of the Revolutionary Army.
It is even more because of the relevant revolutionary power that Rifan once provided to Kuma.
Until now, many revolutionary troops regard Rifan as the light of the revolutionary army and the mentor of the revolutionary army.
Therefore, they will pay close attention to the news about Rifan.
"Betty, what happened to that Rifan?"
"Could it be another trouble?"
Dragon came over and asked with a frown.
Sabo and the others also looked over worriedly.
No wonder everyone thinks Rifan will be in danger.
You know, Marine has sent Kuma, Garp, and Marine Admiral Aokiji successively to arrest Rifan because they wanted to arrest Rifan.
Although Rifan avoided being arrested every time for various reasons.
But that doesn't mean Marine won't take action against Rifan in the future.
And once Marine launched the arrest of Rifan and others, Dragon felt that Marine decided to send more troops than any previous operation.
"It's not that there's trouble."
"Our friend Rifan has now become a Shichibukai just like Kuma."
Bello Betty shook the newspaper in her hand to everyone in the room, and said with a smile on her face.
"Shichibukai?!"
"He actually did it!"
Dragon took the newspaper and took a look, after seeing Rifan replacing Moria as the new Shichibukai.
Even he couldn't help feeling a burst of surprise.
"Rifan, you are really a powerful person."
"Hunted by Marines from the very beginning."
"And now you have managed to get into the relationship with the Marine Alliance."
"Having said that, if we can invite him to be our partner."
"In the future, Kuma will not be the only one who can provide us with information about the interior of the Marine."
Sabo rested his chin on one hand and said with a light smile.
Hearing Sabo's words, the other commanders of the revolutionary army also nodded one after another, echoing Sabo.
Everyone had hoped that Rifan would join the revolutionary army.
Now that Rifan has become Shichibukai, they naturally look forward to Rifan becoming a member of them.
After all, in this way, their revolutionary army is equivalent to having a powerful and reliable partner who can provide them with various information at any time.
As for whether Rifan is suitable for the revolutionary army.
None of the cadres present had such an idea.
Those who can come up with such an excellent revolutionary theory cannot be dissatisfied with the revolutionary army.
In Rifan's case, at most, the desire for freedom overwhelmed the desire to join the revolutionary army.
"Dragon, it's great that you got to know Rifan last time."
"You helped him, and he must be very grateful to you in his heart."
"How about it, are you trying to invite him to join our revolutionary army?"
Betty raised the corner of her mouth and said to Dragon with a light smile.
"If possible, I would naturally like to invite Rifan to the Revolutionary Army."
"It's just that even if I helped him."
"But compared to the revolutionary theory he gave us, that kindness is nothing at all."
"If you want to talk about kindness, we actually owe him."
Dragon shook his head and sighed.
"Is there really no way for Rifan to become a member of the Revolutionary Army?"
"Obviously such a man with outstanding revolutionary talents."
"It would be a pity to be just a pirate."
Bello Betty rested her chin on one hand and said with great regret.
At this moment, bursts of strange noises came from the sky.
The leader of the Revolutionary Army, Dragon, Chief of Staff Sabo, Belo Betty, and other commanders of the major military regions raised their heads and looked into the air.
boom!
Accompanied by a loud noise, a very familiar figure landed on the open space.
"Kuma? What wind brought you back... Wait, what happened to your injuries?"
When Dragon saw Kuma's familiar face, he was happy for a while.
But after noticing the injury on his body, his expression immediately became serious.
Other revolutionary troops also surrounded them.
Everyone knows how powerful the Kuma is.
And his ability can be described as weird.
A person who can make Kuma appear so damaged must be a very powerful opponent.
"Don't worry, this is not an injury caused by the enemy."
Kuma stood up, patted the dust off his body, and glanced at everyone present.
"Not caused by the enemy?"
"Kuma-san, what happened to you?"
Koala stepped forward, both worried and curious as she ask Kuma.
"The injury on my body was left when I fought against Rifan."
"Don't worry, I don't have any conflicts with him."
"It's just mutual testing power."
Kuma naturally knew how much everyone liked Rifan, so he quickly explained the reason why he fought Rifan.
When they learned that Kuma did not fight against Rifan because of his bad relationship, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
However, after knowing how powerful Rifan is now.
And how Rifan's partner is also strong
Everyone was still surprised.
Originally, everyone thought that it took a lot of effort for Rifan to defeat Moria.
But in Kuma words, Rifan's partners have the power to defeat Moria.
As for Rifan, he knocked down Moria with just one move.
This kind of power really surprised everyone at the scene.
"That Rifan is really amazing."
"It doesn't matter if he is strong, but even his friends have strength that is almost as strong as Moria."
"And this Mr. Skeleton, who rivals Moria, is just Rifan's new partner."
"Where did he find such a powerful partner?"
Bello Betty rested her chin with one hand, her eyes were full of curiosity about Rifan.
"That skeleton, I don't think he was that powerful at first."
"The reason why he became able to fight against Moria without losing, it should be because of Rifan's weird ability to strengthen his partners."
Kuma shook his head and said.
"Strengthen his partner?"
"Kuma, are you saying that the power of Rifan's partners all comes from Rifan's ability?"
Dragon asked curiously.
"That's right! Rifan told me that his Devil Fruit power has the power to help those marked by him become stronger."
"Although Rifan didn't reveal too much, I think this ability can only be effective if the people he marks are by his side."
"Besides, there should be a limit to the number of people Rifan can help strengthen."
"Otherwise, that man Rifan should have already been frantically recruiting partners."
Kuma nodded and said to everyone.
When the cadres of the Revolutionary Army heard Rifan's unique ability, they thought of Mikita, Nico Robin, Nami and other crew members of the Black Pearl Pirates who offered a reward of over 100 million Berry.
All of a sudden, they couldn't help being curious about the limit of Rifan's abilities.
"With such ability, it would be great if Rifan could join the Revolutionary Army."
"Even if the number of people who can be strengthened is limited, it will be of great help to us."
Ahiru, deputy commander of the Eastern Army, shook her head and said with a sigh.
"Yeah, Kuma-san, did you try again and invite Rifan to join us in Revolutionary Awakening?"
Sabo raised his head and couldn't help asking.
