The reason why the Marine soldiers of the 153rd division listened to Luffy's words was ultimately because of Garp.
As a Marine hero, East Blue is Garp's hometown. In this place, Garp's title of Vice Admiral is probably more useful within the Navy system than that of an Admiral.
At this time, on the Grand Line, at the Naval Headquarters, in Marineford, on the top floor of the huge fortress, was the Admiral's office.
"Garp!" Sengoku hung up the phone, his face darkened. "Your grandson turned the local marines of the 153rd East Blue branch against their own captain and overthrew him!"
"Hahaha, my grandson never fails to impress me!"
Sitting on the couch, Garp was eating a senbei and upon hearing this, he laughed so hard that tears were about to come out of his eyes. "Well, don't worry, Sengoku. I know Luffy's temper very well. Besides, it's probably because that captain was corrupt."
Sengoku's eyelid twitched fiercely. That's why he had a headache.
"We don't know the specific details yet. We need to send someone to deal with the consequences of your grandson's actions!"
He didn't know what kind of useless the captain of that branch was, to be taken down by his own subordinates in his own headquarters.
It is likely that his subordinates had been very dissatisfied with him for a long time.
Otherwise, this situation would be difficult to explain.
After all, Garp's grandson is not a superior officer, so it would be difficult for people to obey his orders.
"Here, get some senbei. As for East Blue, you can let me handle it!"
Garp stood up, placed half a piece of senbei on the table, and laughed as he turned to leave.
"Oh, and tell Tsuru not to leak this information. Treat it as confidential."
Vice Admiral Tsuru, known as a great General Staff officer, is responsible for the Navy's intelligence department.
Sengoku watched Garp leave the office and quickly understood.
This old man was protecting his grandson...
Strictly speaking, this matter could be considered a military rebellion.
It would be normal for Luffy to have a bounty of several million berries now.
"That old fool! He said he'd take care of it, but I'm sure he went to East Blue just to see his grandson."
Sengoku, feeling irritated, picked up a senbei and began chewing it.

153rd branch, cafeteria.
Zoro ate and drank a lot.
After starving for so many days, he finally managed to eat a good meal.
Nami held a glass of juice and absently bit the straw.
Luffy looked at her. "What there was?"
Nami whispered, "I found a navigation map in Morgan's room. I thought it was from the Grand Line, but it turned out to be a joke left by pirate captain Buggy the Clown."
"Why did you go stealing... I mean, looking for a navigation map?"
The situation in Cocoyasi Village will be resolved soon, and Nami will no longer need to steal to save money.
"Didn't you say you wanted to go to the Grand Line? I recently heard about this navigation map, which ended up at this base. So I thought I'd give it a try." Nami took a sip of juice and gave him a disdainful look.
Luffu was surprised for a moment, then he leaned closer to her ear and laughed.
"Ah, you really are a trustworthy navigator, Miss Nami."
Nami's ears turned red. "Too close!"
She just felt that Luffy had helped her a lot and that she should pay him back.
She quickly moved her buttocks, moving a little further away.
This annoying captain, she wanted to help him, but he turned around and flirted with her.
"Luffy-sama, news about Morgan's arrest has been announced throughout the city!"
At this time, a soldier arrived at the restaurant and respectfully reported.
"I understand. Tomorrow morning, I want all of the city's residents to participate in the 'public trial assembly'."
"Yes!"
After the soldier left.
Nami couldn't help but be curious and asked softly, "Public judgment assembly? What is this for?"
"To cover your tracks." Luffy thought for a moment and explained in simple terms, "This is more to give a reasonable excuse for the Marines of this base to overthrow their superior."
It is a taboo for subordinates to oppose their superiors.
He himself didn't care about it, he could just walk away after getting a 'love fist' from his grandfather, but for those Marines it's different.
"The situation in your hometown is the same," Luffy added, "We could directly defeat the Arlong Pirates in your hometown, but what would happen next? Do you think it's normal that even with Arlong in your village no one from the navy showed up?" ?"
Nami suddenly remembered something and immediately said, "Arlong secretly bribed the sailors from a nearby branch."
"So if we're going to do this, we should do it thoroughly." Luffy tapped Nami's forehead with his finger and smiled, "You don't want another 'Arlong' to show up in your hometown after we go to the Grand Line, right?"
"So, are you going to take the sailors from here to deal with the Arlong Pirates?" Nami said in surprise.
Ahh~ Now I get it, now I get it, now all the pieces fall into place~ I'm understanding everything now.
In other words, before arriving at Shells Town, Luffy had already planned a whole set of methods.
Including defeating Morgan, all of this was to solve his hometown problems!
He's been too good for him!
Nami was deeply moved and really wanted to kiss him now.
Liffy nodded, "As long as you understand. Being a captain is not easy. For you, I have been worrying a lot. Aren't you touched?"
"Hee~" She smiled brightly, moved her buttocks again and approached Luffy.
"Thank you, Captain~"

[Roronoa Zoro (Skilled with a sword) has been recruited into the crew]
[Host was rewarded with 700 adventure coins]
Pffff! 700 coins!
Great head of green algae, you are worth a lot!
After flirting with Nami for a bit, Luffy finally had time to take a look at the system.
When you have money, the first thing to do is spend it.
Spend it all and then earn it back.
