"Oh? Are you Lafitte?" Guan Liyuan looked at the pale-faced and thin man in front of him and said with interest.
"It's an honor that the chief of staff of the Revolutionary Army has heard of my name..." Lafitte said with a little surprise.
"The devil sheriff of the West Sea was expelled from the country of Kalanfu because of violent law enforcement and the death of a large number of civilians. In fact, I asked someone to go to the West Sea to find you before, but unfortunately I missed it." Guan Liyuan said.
"What a proud thing... Is it to kill me in order to implement the spirit of the Revolutionary Army? Or do you think I am actually worth cultivating?" Lafitte asked curiously.
"Neither, I just want to make use of the waste." Guan Liyuan said with a smile.
Lafitte didn't seem angry, but bowed slightly and said: "Thank you Mr. Guan for your attention, but compared with the purpose of my coming this time, my matter is insignificant..."
"Then who are you representing now?" Although Guan Liyuan could roughly guess, he still asked.
"I came to see Mr. Guan this time to ask the Revolutionary Army for the position of the Grand Governor of the West Sea on behalf of my captain, Marshall D. Teach." Lafitte said.
Guan Liyuan looked at him curiously, as if to say "Who gave you the confidence"...
Grand Governor of the West Sea?
There is no "Grand Governor" in the Revolutionary Army so far, but from the words of the Grand Governor of the West Sea, we know that Blackbeard wants to be the governor of the entire West Sea? Why doesn't he go to heaven?
In the original work, it was indeed Lafitte who, after Blackbeard captured Ace alive, sneaked into the Seven Warlords of the Sea meeting in Marinford and proposed to Sengoku that he wanted to ask for a vacant "Seven Warlords of the Sea" quota for Teach, and the exchange was Ace, whose identity was sensitive!
Now Blackbeard obviously can't do this. If Ace is sent to Dongcang Island at this time, let alone the position of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Sengoku will fight him in a minute-the navy can't stand the tossing of the Whitebeard Pirates now.
Lafitte came to find Guan Liyuan at this time. In fact, the latter was a little happy. Although he knew that Blackbeard was two-faced and a hungry wolf who could not be fed, he was more dangerous than Crocodile, but... Blackbeard not only dared to fight, fight and gamble, but also had the instinct of "seeking profit".
In the original work, Blackbeard lurked on Whitebeard's ship for many years. After discovering the Dark Dark Fruit, he immediately rebelled. After that, he joined the Seven Warlords of the Sea at the best time. After achieving his goal, he immediately kicked the navy away and went it alone...
Now Blackbeard's people came to find him, which at least showed that in the eyes of the "visionary" Teach, the Revolutionary Army had a great advantage!
"West Sea? Hahaha, your captain has a big appetite." Guan Liyuan smiled disdainfully.
"Appetite matches one's own value... Mr. Guan, who even knows a nobody like me, should know about the Battle of Panaro Island not long ago, right?" Lafitte said.
The Battle of Panaro Island is not news in newspapers, but it is still very famous in the high-level circles of various forces... Ace, the second captain of Whitebeard, fought with his traitor Blackbeard on Panaro Island. From the scene, Blackbeard was the winner, but after that, both Blackbeard and Ace disappeared.
"So what?" Guan Liyuan asked without much interest.
Do we have to exchange Ace? Roger's son is not worth the price! Guan Liyuan might consider kidnapping Im's son!
"You may not know the other identity of Portgas D. Ace? It's not just that simple as Whitebeard's captain, but... he is the posthumous son of Gol D. Roger. Whitebeard and Governor Garp both know about this. If Ace's identity is revealed and sent to Dongcang Island, guess what will happen? Of course, this is the behavior of our Blackbeard Pirates and has nothing to do with the Revolutionary Army." Lafitte said.
Guan Liyuan had to say that these bastards were quite insidious...
If it was just Whitebeard's second captain, it wouldn't be very noticeable, then announcing Ace's life experience and sending him to the navy would undoubtedly put Sengoku in a dilemma.
For the sake of the overall situation, he could let "Whitebeard's second captain" go, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't let "the son of the Pirate King" go, and he couldn't even let Ace go secretly!
As for killing Ace to establish his prestige?
Half a year ago, Sengoku might have considered taking the opportunity to establish his prestige with the Whitebeard Pirates, but now... the reality doesn't allow him to consider such a thing at all. The last 50,000 headquarters navy can't stand Whitebeard's tossing.
And Blackbeard was very considerate and said that Ace could be sent completely in their name to avoid Garp from hating Guan Liyuan because of this.
However, Guan Liyuan still said, "It's just a navy. It's hard to do anything big. It's not even worth the West Sea."
"No, it's not just Ace. Mr. Guan is going to Dressrosa later, right? We actually have some cooperation with Doflamingo now. If you have any ideas, we can arrange it..."
"Oh? When did I say I had ideas about Dressrosa?" Guan Liyuan narrowed his eyes.
That's right, this time Guan Liyuan secretly took a detour back to the New World, and Dragon's previous preparations were indeed aimed at Dressrosa.
However, even many cadres of the Revolutionary Army were not notified of this matter. How could Blackbeard know about it?
"Mr. Guan, don't rush to deny it. In fact, we are not sure. We are just speculating based on the current situation... If Mr. Guan really wants to take action against Doflamingo, we can help a little. If not, how about considering it?" Lafitte said.
Under Guan Liyuan's gaze, Lafitte's expression did not change much. In the end, Guan Liyuan laughed and said, "Hahaha, interesting, interesting... Dressrosa? It's not bad to use a former Celestial Dragon as a sacrifice, but... just assisting 'One Two' is probably not enough, right?"
No matter what Lafitte thought, Guan Liyuan pretended to be impulsive.
"With Mr. Guan's strength, there is no difference between 'One Two' and 'Seven Eight'. It just depends on whether this 'One Two' is in a key position, right?" Lafitte said. Guan
Liyuan was not surprised that Blackbeard and Doflamingo had an alliance.
After all, in the original work, the two had an unclear suspected alliance relationship. In the Battle of the Top, Doflamingo was the only one who was not surprised by Blackbeard's appearance, but instead sighed that "the good show has begun". Moreover, when Lafitte proposed that Blackbeard become a Shichibukai, Doflamingo was the first to support him...
But now it seems that Blackbeard decisively sold Doflamingo out.
Of course, Doflamingo certainly wouldn't trust Blackbeard completely, and it was hard to say to what extent Blackbeard could help him.
"Is this the condition for your exchange of the West Sea?"
"It's not 'West Sea', it's just 'Grand Governor of the West Sea'."
"I want Ace too, no need to give it to Sengoku, send it to me."
"Deal, happy cooperation, Mr. Guan..."
