"Marshal Sengoku, it's been a Dragon time, I don't know why your calling me?"
Rifan crossed his legs and said to Sengoku with a smile on his face.
"Rifan, didn't you say you want to make a deal with Marine?"
"Why didn't you answer the phone for so Dragon?"
"What about Hina and Tashigi, are they safe?"
Opposite the den-den mushi, Sengoku asked out the doubts in his heart.
"Why didn't I answer the call, doesn't Marshal Sengoku have a point in his mind?"
"Don't say that the arrival of Kuma has nothing to do with you."
"Fortunately, I still have some means, otherwise I will really suffer."
Rifan said calmly.
On the other hand, Hina's expression was a bit complicated.
Rifan's words made Sengoku swallow what he originally wanted to say about Marine and Kuma.
With his intelligence, he also thought that Rifan might have such a reaction.
"Rifan, let me confirm with you first, are Tashigi and Hina okay?"
Sengoku asked.
"Of course there is no problem, they are by my side now."
"Also, Tashigi, come in too."
Rifan nodded slightly, raised his head and looked towards the door.
As Rifan finished speaking, Tashigi pushed open the door of the consulting room and walked in with a complicated expression.
After seeing Hina's disheveled appearance, Tashigi buried her head even more.
Earlier, she had already arrived at the door of the consulting room.
However, after hearing the previous conversation between Rifan and Hina inside the room, she did not choose to enter the consultation room directly to avoid embarrassment.
Hina breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Tashigi who was safe, and quickly put on her clothes.
Then, after receiving Rifan's instruction, Tashigi and Hina proved their existence to Sengoku.
"Rifan, let's talk."
"You keep both Hina and Tashigi safe. So you should still be thinking about making a deal."
Sengoku asked Rifan while heaving a sigh of relief after hearing the voices of Hina and Tashigi.
"Hehe, I indeed plan to do that."
"However, in view of the premise that your Marine breached the contract."
"This transaction must be increased."
Rifan said leisurely.
"Since that's the case, how about I give you one more senior agent from Baroque Works?"
"As expected of Marshal Sengoku, you think fast. According to you, you have caught another person?"
"That's right, a man named Mr. 2 was caught not Dragon ago, since you have an enmity with Baroque Works, you should know him."
"Of course I know. A guy who can transform into other people. But since you've caught him, you must have figured out the Crocodile plan."
Regarding the capture of Mr. 2 who is a devil fruit user of Clone-Clone Fruit, Rifan feel it a little strange.
After all, that guy in the original book even used Devil Fruit to trick many Impel Down guards in Impel down.
"I'd rather close the deal with you than talk about Crocodile, Rifan."
"Tell me, where do you want to close the deal."
Sengoku said.
"This time, Marshal Sengoku is quite straightforward."
"I think, you shouldn't be thinking of playing any tricks either."
"Well, let's trade at Whiskey Peak on the Grand Line."
"I need you to bring those you caught to that place within a week."
"At that time, I will go there."
"By the way, I'm pretty good at using Observation Haki."
"If you send a lot of troops, or an Admiral to catch me."
"I can only think that you Marine have given up on Hina and Tashigi."
After Rifan finished speaking, he hung up the call without giving Sengoku a chance.
"Tashigi, Miss Hina. You heard that."
"I will have you continue your stay on my ship these days."
"In order not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings, please do not act unusually."
Rifan stuffed the den-den mushi into his pocket and left the consultation room past the two of them.
—•—|Rifan Live Broadcast Chat Room|—•—
[As expected of Brother Rifan, he really dares to speak to the Marshal of Marine like this!]
[Green Pheasant Audience: Upstairs, I think your Rifan is short-sighted, Marine Marshal Sengoku has already breached the contract once, and your Rifan still believes him. ]
[Camel Audience: It is conceivable that if Rifan really reach that Whiskey Peak, Marine will definitely have arranged enough troops to arrest Rifan. ]
[Hehe, don't forget, Brother Rifan has a very strong Observation Haki. If there is an ambush in the Marine, he will definitely be able to know it in advance.]
[Elephant Audience: Really? I don't believe it! Rifan can't recognize all the Marines, and he doesn't know what abilities the Marines have. What if Marine arranged for a person with a strong ability to hide himself.]
[I believe in Brother Rifan. Since he entered the dungeon world until now, Brother Rifan hasn't crashed yet. ]
[Green Pheasant Audience: Hehe, we'll see. ]

"Tashigi, you seem to be in a bad mood, what happened?"
Hina asked Tashigi while arranging her clothes.
"Colonel Hina, I...I talked with Carina earlier."
"I wanted me to replace her as Rifan's crew, but she didn't agree."
Tashigi pursed her lips and said to Hina.
"Carina, it's the commoner you mentioned earlier."
"Give it up, Tashigi, although she was a commoner before, she is now Rifan's partner."
"You heard and saw what I did just now."
"Even if you exchange using your body and want to negotiate with Rifan on your own, Rifan will not accept it."
Hina shook her head and said.
Hearing this, Tashigi was silent for a while.
She naturally knew that what Hina said was correct.
After all, Rifan had said similar things to her Dragon before.
She was just not reconciled and wanted to give it a try.
"Hina also confirmed something, although Rifan is a lecherous man"
"But if you want to use beauty to guide him to make a corresponding judgment, the probability of success is too low."
"From this point of view, this man is indeed a very principled person."
"Such person should also value the promise most."
"But Hina is worried now, with Marshal Sengoku already defaulting once."
"For the next transaction, will Rifan do nothing and complete the transaction honestly?"
Hina looked at the door, her heart full of distress.
"Colonel Hina, shall we talk to Rifan again?"
Tashigi asked slightly excitedly.
"Forget it, Tashigi."
"At this time, let's recognize our identities."
"As for that Carina matter, try not to think about it."
"If you really become a pirate, that guy Smoker will go crazy."
Hina patted Tashigi on the shoulder, opened the door of the consulting room and went out.
...
The great horizontal road stretches as far as the eye can see on the sea.
A Marine warship is rapidly heading towards the Reverse Mountain.
"I understand, Marshal, I will try to arrest Rifan."
"Rest assured, until Rifan shows up, I will stay away and let Vergo go and make the trade."
Marine Admiral Aokiji stood on the deck of the warship, talking to the den-den mushi in his hand.
Not far behind him is Vergo who has just become Naval Headquarters Vice Admiral.
"But, Marshal, are we really going to go to war like this?"
"Why don't we give Rifan the person he wants first, and then look for an opportunity to arrest him. It should be okay."
Kuzan said to Sengoku across the den-den mushi.
"Kuzan, you should know that Rifan's pirate group has great potential."
"And there's Nico Robin, on that boat."
"Therefore, we need to seize the opportunity to capture them all in one go."
"Hina and Tashigi are members of Marine, they will understand my arrangement."
Across from the den-den mushi, Sengoku said in a muffled voice.
"Since you have said so, Marshal, I will do my best to complete the task."
After the conversation, Kuzan raised his hand and hung up the call.
Seeing Aokiji hang up the phone, Vergo walked to his side, sighed and said:
"As expected of Marshal Sengoku, he predicted Rifan to such an extent..."
"So let us leave Naval Headquarters first, and rush to the direction of the Reverse Mountain with these baroque works captives."
Hearing this, Aokiji nodded and looked towards the sea in the distance.
"That's the scary thing about Sengoku-san, he's the man called The Resourceful General after all."
"Vergo, you already know the plan."
"Afterward, you will arrive at Whiskey Peak aDragon with the people Rifan needs."
"If I had appeared in the first place, Rifan would never have landed on that island."
"So, if there is a conflict, you need to face Rifan alone."
"That guy can escape Garp-san and fight Kuma, so his strength is definitely not to be underestimated."
Vergo naturally knew this, and after Aokiji finished speaking, he immediately nodded solemnly.
On the other side, East Blue.
The sea not far from the Logue Town.
The ship where the Revolutionary Army is located, the Wind Granma.
"Boss, there's news from the Grand Line recently."
"It says Marine Admiral Aokiji has been dispatched recently."
Belo Betty, commander of the Eastern Army of the Revolutionary Army, came to Dragon, who had just quietly met his son Luffy and returned to the ship, and reported to him.
"Marine Admiral Aokiji? Has Marine made any major moves recently?"
Dragon was thinking about the various behaviors of Otoshi beside Luffy, when Belo Betty's sudden words diverted his attention in an instant.
After all, Aokiji is one of the highest combat powers in Marine.
Almost every move he makes means a major move for Marine.
As a revolutionary army standing against the Marine and World Government, Dragon felt that he had to pay attention to Aokiji's actions.
"Not sure, but I—"
Belo Betty pushed her sunglasses, and was about to tell Dragon what she wanted in her heart.
A figure descended from the sky and landed heavily on the Winter Granma.
"It's still the same exaggerated landing method as before."
"Long time no see, Kuma."
Belo Betty raised her eyebrows and looked in the direction of Kuma with interest.
"Welcome back, Kuma, is there anything you want to tell us this time?"
Seeing the appearance of Kuma, even the unsmiling Dragon smiled.
After all, Kuma was one of the three veterans who founded the Revolutionary Army.
At the same time, the heart of Dragon is also a little dignified.
After all, with Kuma's current status as Shichibukai, if it is not necessary, he will not meet him, the leader of the revolutionary army.
At most, the other party will use the den-den mushi used for encryption to contact him.
"Dragon, I met a very interesting person."
"He should be the successor of the Kamabakka Kingdom cultivated by Ivankov."
Kuma took out a notebook from his pocket and said while walking towards Dragon.
"Ivankov's successor?"
"He's in Impel down right now."
"Who is the person you are talking about and why do you think he is Ivankov's successor?"
Dragon was surprised, and he couldn't help asking Kuma out of curiosity.
"You should have heard his name, he is Rifan, a pirate who has recently gained fame."
Kuma opened his mouth and quickly explained why he thought Rifan was Ivankov's successor.
"I see, did he actually master Ivankov's technique?"
"In that case, this man named Rifan may not be a man."
Belo Betty laughed softly, then turned to look at Dragon and continued:
"Dragon, what I just said about Aokiji's operation."
"My guess is that they may have gone after Rifan."
"After all, Robin is on Rifan's ship."
"According to the information I got, Rifan's pirate group just crossed the Reverse Mountain to the Grand Line not long ago."
"From the perspective of Aokiji action and Rifan's trajectory, it is also suitable."
"And that Rifan escaped from Garp not long ago."
"And now add his escape from Kuma."
"It makes sense that Marine would send Marine Admiral to intercept Rifan."
