Want Wano Country...
Kuro raised an eyebrow and subconsciously looked at the CP0 member who had been kicked away and was now lying there panting.
"To make them member states? Kurozumi Orochi failed, and people nowadays may not necessarily consider him a general, especially since Kaido has already fallen."
It's not difficult for Wano Country to become a member state; the difficulty lies in choosing a shogun. Kurozumi Orochi was a shogun before, and even though he was unpopular, he still had supporters, mainly because of Kaido's powerful military support.
Now that they've all collapsed, they're definitely gone.
If we choose another general, given Wano Country's current behavior, they might not necessarily become a member state.
The Red Scabbards were the initiators, and these people are definitely on the side of the Straw Hat crew. Moreover, Wano Country is too far from the World Government's sphere of influence; it has already penetrated into the middle and later parts of the New World, and the World Government can't do anything about them.
The Den Den Mushi said in a deep voice, "Kuro, you saved Wano Country. You defeated Charlotte Linlin and Kaido. We prefer that you 'open' the country to the world and join the World Government. Wasn't your original G-3 base destroyed by Teach? We've discussed it, and the G-3 base will be located in Wano Country. From now on, your territory will be in Wano Country."
Um?
Kuro was taken aback. "Wait, what do you mean? You want me to be stationed in Wano Country?"
"Yes, this has been carefully considered. You are the only one suitable for this place, and you give us the most peace of mind. We entrust everything in Wano Country to you. Just let us know if you need anything. We allow you to recruit soldiers in Wano Country, if necessary..."
The voice on the other end of the Den Den Mushi gradually became firm: "You can be a general, and we will fully support you!"
...
Mary Geoise, Pangaea, Between Powers.
"Click".
Seeing the Den Den Mushi close its eyes, the five old men in the room exchanged glances. After a brief silence, the curly-haired old man slowly spoke:
"I really didn't expect him to go to this extent."
The old man with the knife nodded and said, "It's true. We noticed the power of the Float-Float Fruit back when Shiki was around. That idiot Shanks tried to stop him on the high seas, but storms don't happen every moment, so failure was inevitable. However, the situation in Wano Country was beyond our expectations; they actually managed to capture both of them."
The long-bearded old man said, "Yes, our original, most conservative plan was just to maintain the balance, and if things went better, we could capture Kaido. But we never expected that Linlin would die there."
The red-skinned old man, with his hands in his pockets and legs crossed, said, "We can't take any further action. We need to consider not only the possibility of failure, but also the possibility of success."
The old man with the map crossed his hands, put them to his mouth, and slowly nodded: "It is impossible to completely wipe out the pirates. It has never been possible. Even if the Navy were to break in, they would only get bogged down in a quagmire. If they lose, it will damage their prestige. If they win, they will not be able to solve the pirate problem. In fact, it will only increase the Navy's prestige. Sakazuki has become increasingly irritable lately. We need to give him a warning."
"agree."
"I second that."
"Um..."
The group nodded again.
The red-skinned old man asked, "Is Wano Country fair to be left to Clow alone?"
“Even if it’s not allowed, it has to be allowed. We’ve given him a lot of power. Only with him can Wano Country be incorporated as a member state,” said the old man with the sword.
"The Heavenly Gold doesn't need to be paid; consider it a benefit for Kuro. As long as the weapons factories in Wano Country are operating normally, that's fine," the old man with the map said. "If it's controlled by our own people, we won't need to buy it from Wano Country anymore."
"Should we let the CP organization pass?" the red-skinned old man asked.
“There’s no need for that. Trust Kuro a little; he’s a good person. Isn’t ‘Sword’ in his hands? Since you’ve given him power, give him everything. Let him make all the decisions about Wano Country.” The old man with the map said.
The long-bearded old man pondered for a moment, "What about the new world's格局 (geju, a concept encompassing overall structure, overall situation, and overall situation)? After Whitebeard's death, it was Shanks, Big Mom, and Kaido who came next. Teach, who is still alive, is only recently added and doesn't represent the 'Four Emperors'. The era of the Four Emperors is over, and the chaos that follows is foreseeable. The question is whether a 'new Four Emperors' will emerge, or whether a different格局 will emerge?"
The concept of the Four Emperors was coined by Shanks after he stirred up trouble in the New World, and the purpose was obviously to make pirates fight for this lousy position.
Before the Four Emperors appeared, powerful pirates were simply 'Emperors of the Sea'.
But now that the existing order has been broken, they have to consider the future direction of the world.
"While it's impossible to maintain balance forever, the world will eventually move towards balance. Just grasp that balance point... The new pirates, led by the Worst Generation, will definitely challenge the pirates of the New World. They will fight for territory and position. Just let things unfold as they may."
The old man with the map said in a deep voice, "Send a message, let the world know this news, with the headline 'The End of the Four Emperors Era'."
The curly-haired old man smiled slightly: "Garp has ignored our orders many times because he is a 'Marine Hero'. We can't do anything about the many Celestial Dragons he has saved. However, the new 'Marine Hero' is one of our own."
The old man with the knife chuckled, "Times are changing...the navy will produce a young man who won't cause any headaches."
The red-skinned old man said, "The old tradition is like this. It's completely different from those recruited from around the world. Green Bull's personality is only suitable for Mary Geoise. And Ichiro's personality doesn't necessarily mean he'll obey all our orders. Most importantly, neither of them is as trustworthy as Kuro."
