Chapter 35 Target—All Nations!
When Tsugakuni Yoriichi and Aokiji walked out of the arena in Dressrosa, there was a young man beside them.
Cyrus was a straightforward person, and since he had agreed to join the navy, he wouldn't dither or procrastinate. Furthermore, Cyrus had no family or friends in Dressrosa, so there wasn't anyone he needed to say goodbye to.
When the arena's director heard Cyrus was leaving the arena to join the navy, he was initially unhappy. After all, Cyrus, with 441 victories under his belt, was the arena's biggest moneymaker!
He really couldn't bear to let him go like this.
However, Aokiji, the captain of the Marine Headquarters, still has some use in Dressrosa, a member state of the World Government.
The director of the arena did not dare to openly obstruct the navy from recruiting people. He only dared to "remind" Cyrus that "you are a murderer", "it will be no good for you to go out", "the navy will definitely not accept a murderer", and "you will be discriminated against by the navy".
But after Aokiji used his ability to freeze the arena manager's desk, he didn't dare to continue saying these words.
Cyrus was also successfully taken out of the arena.
Cyrus was alone and had no luggage. The only things he brought were a few pieces of cloth, some skirts and armor, and the double-edged sword in his hand.
"Cyrus, you are very strong. You will definitely be able to make a difference after joining the navy."
"Follow me first. Once we get to Vice Admiral Garp's ship, I'll have someone complete your enlistment procedures."
"Oh, Vice Admiral Garp is the Vice Admiral of the Marine Headquarters. He's a very kind person and there won't be any problem with your enlistment."
"By the way, although you are very capable, you still have to start from the grassroots level in the navy."
"I came here the same way. After returning to headquarters, I will see if I can ask Mr. Zephyr to let you enter the Naval Academy."
"Oh, Mr. Zephyr is the chief instructor of the navy, a former admiral, and a very nice person. Mr. Zephyr will definitely like a guy like you."
Along the way, Aokiji talked with Cyrus and told him the advantages of the navy. In Aokiji's eyes, the navy was the best place to belong in the world. Aokiji's enthusiasm also made Cyrus relax. Although he agreed to join the navy, he was still very nervous along the way.
What the arena manager said did have some impact.
During the conversation with Aokiji, Cyrus gained a rough understanding of Yoriichi Tsugikuni.
A genius, a young man who is being trained by the navy, his guide is Vice Admiral Garp, a true disciple of former Admiral Zephyr, and a civilian.
Yoriichi and his group did not go directly to the branch to meet up with Vice Admiral Garp.
Aokiji called Garp using Den Den Mushi, briefly explained the situation, and then took Yoriichi and Cyrus for a stroll around Dressrosa. Along the way, he bought clothes for Cyrus and took Cyrus to taste all the delicious food in Dressrosa.
Although Cyrus was a native of the area, he had never been able to explore the place where he grew up, having grown up in poverty. Cyrus did not refuse Aokiji's kindness and relaxed and enjoyed himself. He knew that after leaving his hometown this time, it would probably take a long time for him to return.
Until evening, the afterglow of the setting sun dyed the sea surface.
Yunyi and the other two carried their bags to the Navy branch in Dressrosa and reunited with Garp. Aokiji was also very considerate and brought Garp some fruit-flavored donuts and flavored senbei, which are local specialties of Dressrosa.
"You guys are back so late!"
"This young man must be Cyrus, right?!"
"Welcome to the Navy. I am Vice Admiral Garp of the Navy Headquarters."
Garp finally waited for Yuanyi and others at the branch. Garp's eyes fell on Cyrus. After just a quick look, a smile appeared on his face and he spoke kindly.
"Hello, Vice Admiral Garp."
Seeing Vice Admiral Garp, Cyrus was a little nervous. A Vice Admiral of the Marine Headquarters! A big shot! But seeing Garp's friendly attitude, Cyrus quickly relaxed. He glanced at Aokiji and Yoriichi with a hint of gratitude and greeted Garp.
Vice Admiral Garp is indeed a good man, just as Aokiji said.
"Let's go, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
"It's time to set sail."
"I've received news about the Roger Pirates!"
Garp nodded to Cyrus, then turned serious and spoke to Aokiji. His words made Aokiji's expression harden, and he put away his playful smile.
"Are we going to sail at night?" Aokiji asked, looking at the sky.
"Well, time is running out. If we lose him this time, I don't know when we'll be able to catch him again."
"Roger, it seems he's planning to go look for—Charlotte Lingling!"
"The target is the world!"
Garp dropped a bombshell of news to Aokiji. Aokiji was momentarily stunned when he heard the name Charlotte Linlin, but after a moment, he immediately realized who the other person was:
"Charlotte Linlin, the crew member of the Rocks Pirates back then, Charlotte Linlin?"
Aokiji seemed to know Charlotte Linlin's background and was shocked. He then asked hurriedly, "What are the Roger Pirates planning to do by looking for such a big pirate?!"
"Vice-Admiral Garp, this is a big deal!"
Garp nodded when he heard this, but suddenly the serious expression on his face fell. He picked his nose and said casually, "Of course I know it's a big deal."
"That's why we have to hurry over there. As long as we catch Roger, no matter how serious the problem is, it will be over, right?!"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
As he spoke, Garp took the lead and headed towards the naval port. In the afternoon, Garp's ship had already docked at the branch, and the navy under Garp seemed to have gathered long ago. At this moment, only Garp, Yuichiro and others boarded the ship.
Yoriichi originally thought that he would stay in Dressrosa for a few days, but he didn't expect that he would arrive in the morning and set out to sea in the evening.
The work of the navy is even more like that of a corporate slave than 996.
However, Yunyi did not feel any dissatisfaction. Compared to eating and strolling, he still hoped to see the powerful people on the sea.
Charlotte Linlin is the future Four Emperors, Big Mom.
She was originally a member of the Rocks Pirates. After the Battle of God Valley, Charlotte Linlin formed her own pirate group and roamed the New World.
Today, Charlotte Lingling has built up a very large force.
The Ten Thousand Nations that Garp mentioned is the area ruled by Charlotte Linlin. It is an archipelago consisting of 34 islands and is home to hundreds of thousands of islanders.
Here, people of different races live in harmony. As long as they contribute their lifespans to Charlotte Lingling regularly, they can receive Charlotte Lingling's protection and continue to live among the nations.
At first glance, sacrificing one's life might seem like a terrifying thing, and of course, it is. However, Charlotte Lingling offered the citizens of Wan Guo a choice: if they didn't want to sacrifice their lives, they could leave Wan Guo.
In some ways, the Banko Country is much better than Dressrosa under Doflamingo's control and Wano Country under Kaido's control.
Using family blood ties as a bond and shelter as a bridge, Charlotte Linlin established the Ten Thousand Kingdoms.
Here, Charlotte Lingling is king.
Even the World Government and the Navy cannot intervene here.
Now, the Roger Pirates seem to be trying to contact Charlotte Linlin. This news is not really good news for the Navy.
"Let's go! Our destination is the Big Mom Pirates' territory, Banko!"
