Due to Luffy, Garp and Akainu clashed!
Even the Four Emperors and the Revolutionary Army got tangled up in this mess!
Though these factions haven't crossed paths yet, there's no denying the tension in the air!
In the face of this turmoil, Luffy, as the main character, would typically be astonished. Given his nature, he wouldn't just sit back; he'd definitely have something to say!
However, he remains unusually quiet.
Simply because he didn't pay much attention to the matter at that time.
But at the start of the call, he directly reached out to his two brothers, Ace and Sabo. None of the three brothers paid any heed to this incident. They were all connected on a single line, happily chatting away!
After all, this marks the first phone call between the three brothers since 'Sabo's' death!
Had it not been for the live broadcast, neither Luffy nor Ace would be aware that Sabo is still alive!
Sabo himself wouldn't know that he has two brothers!
So, at this moment, the trio couldn't care less about anything else.
In a single line of contact, after not seeing each other for several years, there were naturally countless things to share.
"Sabo, how have you been all these years?"
"Sabo, do you remember the pact we made as kids? I'm bound to become the Pirate King!"
"Sabo, I'm thriving in the Whitebeard Pirates. Next time we meet, let's hit the bars like we did as kids!"
"Sabo, heard you stuck with Luffy's dad and now you're in the Revolutionary Army. How's life been these past years?"
"Ah, don't worry about us; both Luffy and I are doing splendidly with a dependable crew!"
"Hahaha, truly, I can't wait for our next reunion!"
Luffy, Sabo, and Ace poured out their thoughts through the phone bug.
In this moment, whether it's Ace in the Whitebeard Pirates, Luffy in the Water 7, or Sabo at the Revolutionary Army headquarters...
Although they haven't physically met, the three conveyed their sentiments through words, sharing satisfied smiles.
Even though Sabo hasn't fully regained his memory, he knows well that Luffy and Ace are his brothers!
They are the people who matter most to him in the world!
They are his most cherished companions. As the three privately chatted, the outside world's phone bug was completely silent.
In the joy of reunion, there existed pure silence between the brothers.
Though they haven't seen each other in years, the three have countless thoughts they wish to share.
Yet, the ten minutes passed swiftly!
[The ten-minute call has ended!]
[Now the global phone bugs will be recovered]
As this announcement rang out, the phone bugs held by various sea powers suddenly vanished. Sabo gazed at the sky, a smile playing on his lips as he mused to himself.
"I eagerly await the day I can reclaim all my memories!"
"I believe Luffy and Ace, concealed deep within my mind, will be the most cherished aspects of my life..."
Whitebeard Pirates!
Ace also wore a joyful expression...
"Sabo is alive and well in this world. This is the best news I've heard in years!"
"My brother, I look forward to the day we reunite."
Simultaneously, in the Water 7, Luffy's face beamed with satisfaction!
"Ace, Sabo, I'll become the Pirate King for sure!"
"Even then, across the world, you'll hear about it!"
"I'll prove that what I said as a child will undoubtedly come true!"
Zoro, Sanji, Nami, and the others behind Luffy all smiled upon witnessing their captain's joy.
It seemed their captain was in high spirits...
As the global airtime concluded!
Including the phone bugs held by Sengoku, Garp, and others at the Navy Headquarters, they naturally disappeared without a trace.
At this moment, the naval base lay in ruins due to the clash between Garp and Akainu. Most of it was obliterated.
But under Sengoku's intervention, much of the animosity between the two had dissipated, and they refrained from further action.
However...
Garp continued to glare at Akainu, and from his expression, one couldn't help but question his restraint.
If Akainu persisted and sought to end Luffy's life, Garp would not hesitate to throw punches and intervene once more!
Fortunately, after passing by Garp, figures like Whitebeard, Shanks, Dragon, and other formidable individuals took turns cautioning him.
Akainu wasn't foolish either. He understood that persisting in his course, killing Straw Hat Luffy, would undoubtedly plunge the entire sea into chaos!
At that point, handling such a situation might be beyond the capabilities of someone like him.
So, if Luffy was to be eliminated, it couldn't be done directly by him!
Or at the very least, it must not be known that he was directly responsible...
In Akainu's mind, a plan was formed, and Luffy had already been added to the list of must-eliminate targets!
This wasn't solely due to his extraordinary potential for growth but more importantly, his influential background!
Even now, not fully matured, Luffy already had a multitude of powerful individuals striving to protect him.
If he indeed possessed the potential to become a future king, these allies would only strengthen their support!
At that point, facing another encounter with the Straw Hat Kid, it would only bring more trouble. So, regardless of the circumstances, the Straw Hat Boy must meet his end!
As for the method to eliminate Akainu, a subtle smile crept onto his lips. This sea is fraught with perils. If, during an adventure, the Straw Hat Boy were to meet his demise, it would be considered ordinary, a non-issue.
Even if Garp, Dragon, Whitebeard, and others were aware, regardless of their rage, they couldn't intervene.
Not to mention the entire navy!
Moreover, if he interpreted it correctly earlier, the Straw Hats are about to confront formidable opponents.
It appears to be the Yonko Pirates!
And there are two of them!!!
As for the might of Kaido and Big Mom, no one comprehends it better than Akainu. Even though Luffy has vanquished numerous foes, he can never contend with the Four Emperors!
And there are still two of them...
Perhaps in this conflict, he would taste an unparalleled defeat!
Or even... meet his end right then and there!
If that were the case, he wouldn't need to strain his mind pondering over how to eliminate him. Contemplating this, Akainu suddenly felt exhilarated.
He wished to witness the upcoming broadcast as soon as possible. The farce at the Navy Headquarters had concluded.
Everyone had also gathered in the conference hall.
However, due to the clash between Garp and Akainu, a massive breach had formed in the conference hall!
It seemed like there was no wall at all, giving it a somewhat dilapidated appearance...
At this moment, Doflamingo, who had been crouched in the corner and mostly silent, spoke slowly, "Everyone, I've spent a considerable time at the Navy Headquarters, and it appears that..."
"You haven't resolved your own matters adequately, so in that case, allow me to withdraw first and return to my own territory!"
Hearing this, whether it was Akainu, Garp, Sengoku, the Shichibukai, or others, they were all slightly taken aback.
Doflamingo wants to depart from the Navy Headquarters and return to Dressrosa?
He hadn't encountered significant issues before, but due to a recent defeat, he seemed eager to leave promptly. Was he planning to follow the precedent set by Enel and CP9? Could he not act against Luffy?!
