At this moment, in the reception hall of Marine Headquarters, the Seven Warlords of the Sea gather.
On the side, there was a man with a serious face and a high ponytail.
Aladdin, a merman with a long beard and a tattoo of '1TC' on his left arm, crosses his arm across his chest.
Marshall D. Teach, who was wearing a black cape and had an arrogant look on his face, was sitting across from him.
The cold gazes between the two met, and unabashed murderous intent permeated the air, making the scene somewhat tense.
The Marines, who was guarding here, had some sweat on their forehead and didn't dare to take a breath.
"It's so delicious, Mom, this is so delicious."
In the reception hall, there was only one tall, fat man making a sound.
Edward Weevil, who has the same crescent-shaped white beard that curves upward like Whitebeard, is not affected by the tense atmosphere at all.
He grabbed the food on the table with both hands and devoured it hungrily.
"Idiot son, eat less; we are at the Marine headquarters."
Sitting next to Weevil was a short old woman with thick red lips, sunglasses, a wrinkled face, and a leopard-printed coat.
On the side, Stassen Olin sat very calmly next to Blackbeard while sipping the red wine, which was specially served by Marine.
Perhaps because of the butterfly effect, this Old man who first became Warlords of the Sea with Crocodile when Kaishu became famous has always occupied this position.
Not far from them, Donquixote Doflamingo, the Heavenly Yaksha, wears a pink cloak and purple glasses, sits on the table, and looks at Aladdin and Blackbeard with a playful smile.
"Hehehe~."
Next to Weevil was the devilish-looking, inexplicably excited Gecko Moria, who was wearing a shirt with a bat-shaped collar and Gothic-type clothing.
On the side, Vice-Admiral Tsuru rested her chin on the back of her hand and sat there patiently.
As long as they don't fight directly, she won't bother to directly intervene in the cold war between Aladdin and Blackbeard.
"What? With such a murderous look, do you want to avenge Thatch?"
Blackbeard, who was rude and flamboyant, spoke first while looking at Aladdin with a look of disdain and said sarcastically:
"The fish Fishmen Island has already become Kaishu's dog! Why are you still thinking about your former master?"
"You bastard!!!"
Aladdin was obviously no match for Blackbeard verbally, and he gritted his teeth and looked fiercely.
But Blackbeard was not moved at all and laughed openly!
"Zehahaha..."
"Hancock-sama, please wait patiently here."
Under the guidance of a marine, a graceful and tall figure walked in.
She wears a fiery red cheongsam, with thick black hair hanging down behind her like a waterfall.
Her arrogance and coldness do not make people hate her at all but instead give people the illusion that she should be like this.
The corner of Doflamingo's mouth raised slightly as he said playfully: "I thought a woman like you wouldn't come!"
But Hancock just looked at Doflamingo indifferently and sat down without even saying a word.
"Hiss~"
A python with red and white patterns coiled her body docilely and guarded her side.
"It's really cold!" Doflamingo smiles, showing his rows of white teeth.
Doflamingo has long been aware of this woman's arrogant character, but when he encounters it, it still made him a little annoyed.
"Where are you going? Blackbeard!!"
Tsuru, who had been squinting her eyes as if she was asleep, suddenly raised her head and stared at Blackbeard, who suddenly stood up and asked with a frown.
"Zehahaha, it's too stuffy here. I can't do anything to the guy I want to kill. I'll go out and get some fresh air."
Blackbeard glanced at Aladdin with some mocking eyes, then he looked at Tsuru and said with some arrogance: "Don't tell me that before the war begins, we Marine's allies must be trapped in this shabby hall."
"The World Government would actually allow a traitor like you to become a warlord of the sea."
Aladdin looked at Blackbeard coldly, then he turned to look at Tsuru: "Are not you afraid that he will betray you in the future? Let me kill him now!"
"Zehahaha...Do you want to give it a try?"
"You have already boarded Kaishu's ship, but you formed the so-called Sun Pirates. Do you want to leave a way out for the Fish-Man Island?"
"Guys like you are the most untrustworthy!!"
Blackbeard smiled, revealing his missing gums as he stared at Aladdin mockingly.
"..."
Facing Blackbeard's blatant provocation, veins popped up on Aladdin's forehead, and his hands clenched unconsciously.
"Okay, don't stir up trouble here!"
Tsuru spoke calmly, resolving the tense atmosphere.
"Great Staff Officer Tsuru."
At this moment, a Lieutenant Commander trotted in and saluted to Vice-Admiral Tsuru.
At the same time, he looked at the Warlord of the Sea present and hesitated to speak.
It was obvious that something important needed to be reported, but Doflamingo and other pirates could not be informed.
"Huh?" Doflamingo and Blackbeard narrowed their eyes, a little surprised.
"Don't panic." After scolding, Vice-Admiral Tsuru stood up calmly and walked outside.
"Bah, bah, bah, bah, it always feels like something terrible has happened."
Doflamingo smiled sullenly and directly asked the Lieutenant Commander: "Hey, did something happen before the execution?"
The Lieutenant Commander couldn't help but froze when he heard this.
Blackbeard, Olin, and others couldn't help but become curious after discovering something subtle.
"It looks like I guessed it right!" Seeing this, Doflamingo couldn't help laughing wantonly and smiled at Vice-Admiral Tsuru:
"Vice-Admiral Tsuru, since this is about this execution, why not speak openly and let us also hear what happened..."
"Otherwise, I would wonder if you, Marine, are secretly trying to do something against us..."
Vice-Admiral Tsuru stopped and took a deep look at Doflamingo.
Then she looked at Lieutenant Commander, whose psychological quality was not up to par, and Doflamingo's few words revealed that something was wrong.
So, she can only ask helplessly: "Is it about execution?
"Yes!"
The Lieutenant Commander responded with sweat on his forehead.
"It's okay to just say it."
After taking a look at Doflamingo, Blackbeard, and the others, Vice-Admiral Tsuru frowned slightly.
"Just now, Impel Down came to report that Straw Hat Luffy's crew sneaked into Impel Down, and with Ivankov and others imprisoned there, they released a large number of prisoners, triggering a riot! Director Magellan is doing his best to suppress it at this moment!"
If they still don't know who has sneaked inside after three days, they will not be worthy of being called the maximum-security prison.
"What!!" Even the warlords of the sea couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Something happened to Impel Down!"
Vice-Admiral Tsuru's face changed slightly, and her brows knitted together: "Did Magellan ask for help?"
"Not yet; Magellan has the confidence to suppress it."
The colonel quickly continued: "Because Fleet Admiral Sengoku doesn't want to disrupt the formation and the morale of the Marines, he asked me to ask your opinion."
"Haaa... They want to break the prison and save the Straw Hat Kid."
"Zehahaha, Vice-Admiral, why don't you let me help." Blackbeard laughed boldly and said with a gleam in his eyes.
"Killing the person who wants to rob the prison is also part of the execution, isn't it?"
"No!" Vice-Admiral Tsuru refused: "The most important thing now is public execution, as for Impel down."
"Since Magellan didn't ask for help, I believe he can handle it!"
"That's really..." Blackbeard sat down and had no desire to go out:
"A pity..."
