"Imu-sama, Wano Country currently does not have the highest combat strength, so it is difficult to resist the invasion of the Whitebeard Pirates!" Warcury said through the Den-Den Mushi.
"And what do you plan to do?"
"Send army generals Byrnndi World and Sakazuki to lead five warships to support Wano."
Imu frowned upon hearing this suggestion.
"Notify the Navy to send Admiral Garp to lead five flying warships to Wano Country at full speed!" Imu immediately gave the order.
"Yes, Imu-sama!" Warcury nodded quickly. "However..."
"Um?"
"It's just that from Marineford to Wano, even if there are flying warships, it is impossible to arrive in time..." Warcury said distressedly.
After hearing this, Imu nodded secretly. This is indeed a big problem. "Notify Mihawk to allow them to temporarily withdraw from Wano."
"Yes, we will do it right away."
With a snap, the Den-Den Mushi closed his eyes.
...
A group of navy officers appeared in front of the imposing steel door of the Army Headquarters.
"I never expected that one day I would leave the Navy and come to the Army..." Dalmatian looked with excitement at the hundreds of meters high steel gate in front of him.
Doberman said expressionlessly: "We're soldiers. We just have to follow orders. And if you join the army, won't you be able to go to other worlds to fight as soon as possible? I think that's pretty cool."
"I'm here because of Sakazuki!" Onigumo joined in with a cold voice.
"You are really Sakazuki's number one fan, Onigumo." Dalmatian chuckled.
"Hmph!" Onigumo did not deny it, but not far away from him, Shiryu looked over in disbelief and said to himself: 'Does anyone really admire that perverted guy?'
Shiryu now only feels extremely unlucky. Since Sakazuki joined the army, he has been leading the team alone and enjoying the fresh air called freedom.
Although he sometimes went too far in killing, 'accidentally' hurting his own men or innocent civilians and receiving direct reprimand calls from Sengoku.
But he is still very satisfied with life in the navy, after all, he can kill people legitimately.
But who would have thought that those happy days would be so short. In just a few months, he was relegated to Sakazuki's side again, and as his subordinate!
It was rumored that it was Sengoku's personal decision. He was the only Navy officer sent 'voluntarily' so far...
But joining the Army to participate in battles on other worlds meant more opportunities to kill, especially people from other worlds, who probably wouldn't be as regulated.
Shiryu could only comfort himself in this way at this time.
...
Hours later Shiryu and the others were taken to the base of Dimensional Gate number 1.
After arriving at Kabane World, the new Army officers met Bullet.
"Who am I? No introduction is needed. Who are you? I will gradually get to know the outstanding people among you in the future, so there is no need to waste time here."
"In the next three days, you will follow the recruits to clean up the Kabane in the wild."
After saying that, Bullet turned around and left. Shiryu and others looked at each other and followed without saying anything, while looking at the environment of the entire base.
After leaving the base, Bullet approached his large assault motorcycle and turned to them: "Those who know how to drive, get on the bikes. Those who don't, run to catch up with us."
...
Yomogawa Ayame's feelings towards the World Government were complicated.
She already knew that the latter was taking away the country's gold, copper ore, iron ore, and timber truck by truck. She also knew that every day they killed a large number of people who still resisted their government.
And she has completely become a puppet Shogun who can only obey orders and govern.
But in return, she also knows that the World Government has made Kabane completely disappear in most areas, so they no longer have to face the threat of death all the time.
She must admit that the lives of the people have never been so happy.
"Do you think our choice is the right one? How will future generations view us?" Ayame raised her eyes and looked at Kurusu who was standing aside.
"Don't think too much about it. We can't rebel at all, let the future take its course..." Kurusu comforted her while hugging her.
"Okay." Ayame shook her head, and finally showed a charming smile. "I also don't know how Ikoma, Hozumi and Horobi are doing in Starfish World~"
"No problem. After all, they are all Nue. I believe they can live well no matter where they are." Kurusu stood up and said with emotion. "Actually, sometimes, I also thought about becoming a Kabaneri."
"Why?"
"Because I'm too weak, I don't have the strength to protect you now..." Kurusu looked at Ayame affectionately.
In fact, he is still wary of the World Government.
"I had actually asked the World Government officials for a way to become stronger and they told me that there is a devil fruit in Starfish World that, once consumed, grants god-like abilities..."
Hearing his wife's words, Kurusu looked at her in surprise. "Is there anything so amazing? Are you suggesting...?"
Ayame smiled slightly.
"Well, I want to ask Senior Director O'Connor if I can get a Devil Fruit. I just don't know if this thing is useful to people in our world."
…
"Hurry up!"
"Don't worry about those heavy equipment, if they are damaged, we will replace them when we come back!"
The people of the Flower City either hid in their houses or stood on both sides of the street, watching curiously as these outsiders, who had just arrived for a few days, hurried towards the warship floating in the air in the distance.
"I didn't expect that we would have to leave in despair so soon." Mihawk left the old Orochi Castle and headed towards the floating warship.
Gion behind him heard the unwillingness and anger in his heart and comforted him softly: "It is Whitebeard who is coming after all. When Admiral Garp arrives, we can still come back!"
"I really hope that one day I can compete with Whitebeard in person..."
At this time, Mihawk was eager to break through to the level of a great swordsman as soon as possible. After walking onto the warship, he asked the senior director of Bayer on the side: "How is the team member meeting going?"
"Most of the Flower Capital personnel are already on board, but it seems that there are still a few hours before those from the further regions arrive."
Mihawk nodded to express his understanding. "Make them hurry up and be sure to take as many craftsmen as you can!"
"Yes!"
At that moment, on the warship, everyone became on guard as they sensed the presence of someone using Kenbunshoku Haki and looked at the sky.
"Kaido?"
They saw a blue dragon, but when it got closer, everyone's pupils suddenly dilated.
Even Mihawk frowned.
Because next to the blue dragon, there was also a woman standing on a thunder cloud.
Big Mom!
…
"Kaido actually brought Big Mom here!"
"What is he going to do?"
The alert levels on the two flying warships reached their highest point. Dozens of naval officers took out their swords and formed a defensive line in the air, using Geppo.
"Mihawk, is Kaido planning to betray?" There was a worried look on Gion's face.
"It's unlikely, there's no reason for him to do it." Mihawk replied.
"Mama-hahaha~~" Linlin laughed indifferently. "It seems that my arrival scared that Celestial Dragon brat~"
"This is normal. Linlin, please wait a moment. I'll go talk to that guy!"
Kaido returned to his human form, jumping towards the ship where Mihawk was.
"This..."
The Navy officers hesitated upon seeing Kaido approaching so casually, not knowing if they should intervene.
"Let it pass." Mihawk ordered at that moment.
"Boy, Big Mom wants to talk to you, or rather, she wants to talk to the World Government behind you."
"What does she want to talk about?"
"I told her about that matter, so it's not appropriate to talk about it here." Kaido joked.
After thinking about it, Mihawk, considering the power difference between them, concluded that Big Mom would not need to resort to personal assassination. Therefore, he agreed.
"Let her come over, let's go into the cabin and talk." After saying that, Mihawk turned and walked towards the cabin door, only took a few steps and then stopped, turning his head to look at Gion who was still standing there. "You can come too."
"Uh, okay!"
After a while, the four people gathered in a conference room in the warship cabin.
"Your name is Mihawk, right? I've heard about the Dimensional Gate from Kaido, and I'm very interested~~" Linlin smiled happily. At this moment she is still not as obese as 20 years later, now she is more like a mature beauty.
"So you also want to join the Military like Kaido?"
"No, no, no. I don't want to be a soldier. I want to join the World Government as queen of an affiliated nation." Linlin looked at Mihawk and Gion confidently. This did make them look surprised.
"Is there anything else?" Mihawk asked after a moment of silence.
"Of course!"
"I want my Kingdom of Totto Land to have a seat in the Levely, to remove the bounty on my head, and to allow me to enter and exit freely through that Dimensional Gate."
Linlin became more and more enthusiastic as she spoke, but she felt that these demands were not excessive.
"Although I have no authority to decide that, before contacting headquarters, I need to confirm a few things with you."
"Would you be willing to follow the laws of the World Government after joining? Would you accept its orders? Would you remove the flag from your pirate crew?" Mihawk asked seriously.
"Well, about that..." Linlin hesitated, but in the end the temptation of otherworldly desserts and delicacies overcame everything, and she nodded. "As long as the orders are not too excessive, I will accept them, and disband the pirate group!"
