"Uh... Navy, I guess." Tang Hong said disdainfully, and the next second, their outfits changed to black wide-necked uniforms.

"The same outfit as the Five Elders!" Shizo manipulated the cloak he had given to everyone, then immediately waved his hand and transformed it again: "Admiral!"

A white cloak of justice appeared behind them, which looked quite nice, but without their towering height of over three meters, it didn't seem as unique as one might imagine.

The three admirals of the Navy are all three meters tall.

"Forget it, I'll just stick to normal." Si Zang looked at his outfit and felt a bit awkward, not nearly as comfortable as his original clothes.

At this moment, Lin Feng summoned his high-end Ironclad 99 armor.

The upgraded Ironclad 99 no longer has the original android appearance; it has been directly replaced with heavy technological armor. A small drone shaped like a satellite quickly gathers on the flowing armor surface in front, flies into the sky, merges into the sunlight, and disappears without a trace.

Si Zang strode over and tapped the equipment worn by Ironclad 99: "Yo, upgraded?"

"Nanotechnology, a complete upgrade, including its core technology," Lin Feng explained, as a very clear virtual image appeared before their eyes.

The video showed them the entire area within a hundred kilometers of the island they were on.

"Wow, whatever, did you empty Stark Tower out of nowhere?" Shizang suddenly remembered something.

"The technology in the workshop area..." Lin Feng pointed to a small dot on the screen: "Naval Headquarters Marineford."

"Wait, you're not really planning to have the Navy kill Ace as required by the mission, are you?" Seeing Lin Feng zoom in on the Navy Headquarters, Shizang and Tang Hong both turned their gazes towards him.

At the same time, only Yu Hao looked indifferently at the Navy Headquarters that was being monitored.

"You want to save him?" Lin Feng looked at the two who nodded at the same time and couldn't help but say, "If Ace doesn't die, how can Luffy make up his mind to go against the Navy and the World Government... Or how do you plan to make Luffy understand the cruelty of the world by using other people's blood?"

He felt they didn't need to interfere with these plot points.

"Huh..."

"Besides, if you were standing in the same position as Luffy, with the Gum-Gum Fruit in front of you, would you really be kind enough to give it to him?" Lin Feng said calmly.

It's normal to want to save people or make up for regrets, but here it's not just a comic strip, but about people and things that need to be considered from an equal perspective, and the protagonist is not just one person.

Moreover, what they need to do now is not to make concessions just for a moment of emotion or some possibility.

In the long run, in this fatalistic world, everything is a stage built for a sun god named Nika, so there is no need for regrets.

Fortunately, they no longer need to resort to direct means to plunder benefits from each other.

"Furthermore, our fifth mission is... to change the Navy." Seeing that Shizang was still struggling with this matter, Lin Feng said, "Ace will die, Blackbeard and Whitebeard will die, then the Navy will regain its dominance at sea, and who should this dominance be handed over to?"

"Garp?"

"Aokiji... Ryu?"

Si Zang and Tang Hong each gave an answer.

"I think... we should try to disband it."

"Huh?" Both of them were shocked by Lin Feng's idea this time.

Lin Feng asked calmly, "Do you plan to stay in this world permanently? To make them like you?"

“We are not capable of passing on this influence in the long term, and the kingdoms and cultures of this world will not agree to it. Even ordinary people will not accept this change. But if the navy is disbanded…” Lin Feng said quietly, “Actually, there is no need to say more. Apart from a few admirals, the branches of the navy in various places have no real significance. Apart from serving as the escort force for the Heavenly Gold, it is not much different for them to exist or not.”

Just like the US peacekeeping police, their identities can give many people a narrow hope before anyone knows what they have actually done.

For ordinary people in this world, this is justice, even if it's just a cloak draped with the words "justice".

Seeing Lin Feng's explanation, the three of them remained silent for a long time. They were facing a real world, no longer a comic book, especially with the interference of other participants: "So... what are you planning to do?"

"12 participants, 3 teams, a regional mission... I think the main meaning of Nightmare Space isn't literally about changing the Navy..." Their mission five appeared on the virtual screen in front of them. Lin Feng pointed to this line and slowly explained, "Guess what this mission is like for the other two teams?"

“This…” Si Zang shook his head; he hadn’t expected this.

"What if they're like us?" Lin Feng offered a reminder. It would be too easy for them to change the navy; power represents everything. But if the will of other participants interfered with this change, that would be a real challenge.

Especially tasks that suddenly appear and can double the final reward.

These must be three teams with completely different values ​​and perceptions, so the struggle among the participants at the prefecture level must be due to differences and hostility in their beliefs!

That was what Ohno originally meant!

“Yes, Nightmare Space might do that.” Tang Hong nodded immediately upon hearing this.

Shizang pondered for a moment, muttering to himself, "So the other missions represent factions... If it's Whitebeard's faction, they might capture Sengoku, destroy the Navy... and usher in another Great Age of Exploration."

"Blackbeard believes that force will bring him more benefits and status."

"But if it were Luffy...would Garp become the Fleet Admiral?" Shizang teased. "Ahem, but they didn't expect that we would disband the Navy...If things were normal, we would probably nominate Aokiji, right? And then arrange a bunch of truly capable people for him, and even call Zephyr back."

"Pretty much. If I were in the navy's shoes, I would think the same way." Lin Feng nodded in agreement.

"But... whatever, are we really going to disband the Navy?" Shizo asked with some curiosity.

Lin Feng nodded, raised his hand to manipulate the virtual screen in front of him, and selected many naval officers standing in the square: "Look at them, can the navy really help ordinary people?"

"cannot."

"But if we disperse them, or even let them return to their hometowns and truly give them autonomy, what do you think they will do?"

"Change!"

“That’s enough.” Lin Feng smiled. “This will not only benefit us, but also confuse the other participants, allowing us to find opportunities to extract the information we want from the target.”

After all, the main purpose of this trip was to obtain information about the person Sizang wanted from the target. Since the other party knew that someone had been forcibly added to the mission, it was best not to act too differently and make them wary.

“The opponent’s strength is unknown, but it is likely far superior to ours. Their goal is to disband the navy, which, from any angle, can be linked to other forces.” Lin Feng explained in detail, “Once we have a chance to get closer, it will be easier to find the answer.”

“Then we should…” Tang Hong nodded in agreement, and just as he was about to speak, a small black dot appeared on the distant sea.

The four looked closely and saw a merchant ship with English letters on its signboard speeding towards them.

"Commander, the Giger caravan has ten people in total: one Devil Fruit user and one swordsman," Ironclad 99 quickly relayed the scanned data.

Looking at the fluttering flags, Lin Feng continued Tang Hong's words: "There's no rush now. There are no protective missions. We can wait until the Marineford War begins."

The 20-day Marineford War was just the beginning, a time for them to get familiar with the situation. The real mission would take place during this period.

"Come, let me help him get here quickly." Si Zang rolled his eyes and pointed a finger. A gust of wind swept into the sea, stirring up waves and quickly pulling the ship toward them.

"There are slaves on board; it's a slave ship." Ironclad 99 marked the things it scanned inside the ship. Three figures huddled in the cabin had their hands and feet cuffed.

"Then... this humble Taoist will have to exert a little force." Suddenly, a gust of wind blew up, and the entire sea surface churned, as if a giant hand had been opened and thrown the merchant ship directly in front of them.

"Help!!!"

As the ship stopped and the wind died down, a person dressed in splendid attire at the bow of the ship was pulled by an invisible force and accidentally flew off the ship. He tumbled and fell from the sky, crashing onto the beach in front of Shizang, scattering gold jewelry all over the ground.

"Oh, you're too kind. You kowtow to me as soon as we meet." Si Zang beckoned, and a gust of wind pulled the other person up.

A very fat man with dark circles under his eyes, two big pimples on his face, and a gold tooth in his mouth.

Who are you?!

"Damn it, get me up right now!"

"Damn bastards!"

They weren't wearing gold or silver, nor did they have aristocratic attire or the insignia of the World Government; they were simply lowly people on this island.

"I really want to kill you with one sword." The wind bound the fat man, and Si Zang circled around him with great displeasure. Suddenly, his gaze fell on Lin Feng, who hadn't reacted at all: "Suibian, why aren't you angry at all?"

Upon hearing the question, Lin Feng stepped forward and casually replied, "I would be very angry if he called me a damn poor man."

"You damned poor man!" The fat man laughed loudly, pointing at Lin Feng who was approaching with great displeasure: "You damned poor man, how dare you laugh at me!"

Two loud crashes rang out, and a man dressed like a dog appeared beside Lin Feng, while another man, radiating a chilling killing intent, appeared behind Si Zang, having drawn a long sword.

The fat man clearly knew what was about to happen, but...

Bang! Bang!

Two more sudden crashing sounds rang out, and the fat man's laughter abruptly stopped. His two henchmen were crushed to pieces on the beach by two giant black arms.
