"Has there been any news from Changyun Island?"
"Where is the fleet led by Tsugikoku Yuichi now?"
Inside the brightly lit cabin, Saint Satan sat upright on a snow-white sofa, leaning on his cane. Not far away, on a single-seater sofa, Borsalino sat with his legs crossed, intently trimming his nails.
In response to the Five Elders' question, a tall CP0 in a white suit quickly approached Satan Saint from behind him and respectfully reported:
"For some unknown reason, we haven't been able to contact him since we issued the order."
Hearing this, Saint Satan's face turned a little ugly.
"No news?!"
"Hmph, do you think the mission is too difficult and want to betray the World Government?!"
"Or did he make a plan and start taking action in just one day?"
"Find that guy's family! Kill them all!"
When Saint Satan said this, his tone actually became calmer. CP0, who was reporting the news to Saint Satan, couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart when he heard such cruel and decisive words. He only pondered for a moment before nodding and responding:
"yes!"
In order to prevent the released spies from betraying the World Government, they also have strict requirements when screening candidates.
First of all, you must not be an orphan.
They must have family members, as such talents are easier to control. After all, the spies released are not under the control of the World Government at all. If the other party has ulterior motives but they have no countermeasures, this kind of work cannot be carried out.
In just a few words, Anton, who risked his life for the World Government, was labeled a "traitor".
Investigate the truth of the matter?
Such a small figure was not taken seriously by Saint Satan and his men at all. Giving such an order to Anton was just a casual move and a playful one.
If we can really delay Ji Guoyuan and others, that would be great. If we can't delay them, it doesn't matter.
As for what kind of impact such an order will have on grassroots CPs like Anton, this is not something that Saint Satan cares about at all.
The seat is too high, and looking down at the people below is like looking at ants.
Borsalino was still cutting his nails carelessly, as if what Saint Satan and his subordinates said had nothing to do with him.
However, Borsalino's movements in trimming his nails became slower and more delicate, and no one knew what he was thinking.
Can Borsalino, a naval admiral, empathize with a character like Anton?
This might be difficult, but from Borsalino's perspective, he is also very clear that in the eyes of the Five Elders, he, a navy admiral, is probably just an ant that is a little bigger and stronger.
If one day he is no longer of any value to the Five Elders, a naval admiral like him can also be discarded at will.
"Borsalino, why did Tsugikoku Yoshiichi's fleet appear on Changyun Island?"
"If we want to return to Wanguo, the route should not pass through Changyun Island."
"What do you think is the reason?"
There was a sea chart on the coffee table in front of the sofa. Just when Borsalino's mind was full of thoughts, Saint Satan suddenly asked.
Perhaps in order to show how much the Celestial Dragons valued the Admiral, Saint Satan gave Borsalino a lot of face during the voyage and often asked for his opinion.
Although it was still Satan Saint himself who made the final decision, in Satan Saint's view, this was already a great compliment to Kizaru, the Navy Admiral. In the past, when had the Five Elders ever listened to the opinions of anyone other than Im?
Facing Saint Satan's question, Borsalino slowly stopped his movements, thought briefly, and then spoke in a drawn-out tone:
"They would appear on Changyun Island. The most likely reason is that it is the destination of the fleet, not the Wan Kingdom at all."
This sentence immediately enlightened everyone in the cabin. Saint Satan nodded in approval, then continued to ask:
"If you don't go back to Wanguo, where will you go?"
"Should we change course?"
Satan was also thinking about this problem in his heart, and asked Borsalino for his opinion.
“I don’t know about that.”
"But for us, it can be considered good news."
"At least, we don't have to attack the nations by force."
It was as good as saying nothing, but facing such an answer, Saint Satan really couldn't blame Borsalino for anything. At least, the point Borsalino mentioned earlier was somewhat constructive.
"Then we can only rely on the work of intelligence personnel!"
As Saint Satan spoke, he slowly turned his head and looked at CP0 behind him. The latter understood and did not stay in the cabin any longer. He hurriedly left the cabin and started to get busy.
During the years when the New Navy took root in the New World, the World Government and the Marineford Navy Headquarters did not do nothing.
They deployed a large number of intelligence personnel to the New World, hoping that they would play an unexpected role when they needed them.
The new navy's recruitment policy is actually not too strict in terms of identity verification. The world government did add some sand in the new navy, but the role these people can play is very small.
The identity review for entering the New Navy is not strict, but the strength threshold is actually very high for ordinary people. Moreover, if you want to continue to move up in the New Navy system, strength and talent are indispensable.
The World Government is reluctant to send talented individuals with potential to the New Navy as spies, which makes their intelligence work against the New Navy extremely limited.
Although the people that Ji Guoyuanyi brought with him on this voyage were all new recruits, they were the elites of the Naval Academy. There were no people from the World Government among them, and even if there were, those people had no means of contacting the outside world.
On the entire Dawn warship, apart from the communications room that can communicate with the outside world, only Yoriichi Tsugikuni and Robin have the Den Den Mushi for external communication. Everyone else does not have any communication equipment and is not allowed to carry any.
Although the World Government and the Navy Headquarters had many steps in their actions, they took decisive action after learning that Yoshiichi Tsugakuni had landed on Egg Island. However, after entering the New World, they were like headless flies and could not control Yoshiichi Tsugakuni's movements at all.
After guessing that Ji Guoyuan would not return to Wanguo, these people were at a loss.
But unlike them, the movements of the mixed fleet of the Marineford Navy and the World Government are firmly under the control of the New Navy!
The climate at sea in the New World is changeable. Tsugumi Yuichiro and others who left Changyun Island, the Spring Island, experienced extreme weather such as storms and heavy fog at sea.
Although the sailing speed was very slow due to the extreme weather, it was very safe along the way and no uncontrollable accidents occurred.
After replenishing supplies at Changyun Island, they sailed all the way to Fishman Island without stopping at any other islands along the way.
On the route planned by Yoniichi, their next stop is Redchiled Island, where Tiger is stationed. After replenishing the coating there, they will dive into the deep sea and head to Fishman Island.
From the perspective of Satan Saint and Borsalino, the fleet led by Jigoku Yuanyi seemed to have evaporated. No matter how hard their spies tried, they could not find out any news about the fleet.
This also made Satan Saint and others worried, and they didn't know what to do next.
"Attack the islands controlled by the new navy and force Tsugakuin Yoshiichi to show up!"
CP0 tried to give Satan Saint a suggestion, but his suggestion was met with disdain from both Borsalino and Satan Saint:
"Well, attack the islands controlled by the new navy and force Tsugakuni Yoshiichi to show up."
"He showed up, and then what?"
"Are you going to fight him?"
"Have you not figured out why we came to the New World? To find Yoriichi Tsugikuni? Our main purpose is to eliminate the traitors."
"A direct battle with the New Navy is not our goal."
It was rare for the Satan Saint to talk so much with his subordinates. He was also shocked by his subordinates' stupid suggestions.
"I'm truly sorry, Saint Satan."
CP0 admitted his mistake decisively, bowed, stepped aside and stopped talking.
Didn't he know what the flaw in his words was? No, he knew it very well.
It is wise to show your stupidity appropriately when facing difficult problems, so that your leader will not expect anything from you on such issues, and you will not be blamed.
CP0 is very clear that his value lies in loyalty, not wisdom.
The game between the New Navy and the World Government this time starts with an intelligence war.
From the current perspective, the new navy has all the advantages.
However, Satansheng is not the kind of person who likes to wait passively. He is trying hard to think of a way to break the deadlock.
Coincidentally, Yoriichi Tsugikuni is not the kind of person who likes to wait passively. In this respect, he is the same as Satan Sei.
Is the New World a place where you can come and go as you please?!
On the vast ocean, a small boat that left from Thunder God Island was violently heaving on the waves.
The ship is only a dozen meters long and looks like a merchant ship.
On the deck of the boat, Mihawk, wearing a floral shirt, was sipping a glass of wine comfortably. Accompanying him were Abel, Kuma, and a dozen veterans with rich sailing experience.
They had been sent out to sea under orders from Yoriichi Tsugikuni to relieve Borsalino and his men's boredom. Kuma used his abilities to transport Mihawk, Abel, and himself to Thundergod Island, where he dispatched a ship to intercept Borsalino's fleet.
Even though Marinford and the World Government sent out more than ten ships, the New Navy only needs three fighters, which is enough to deal with them, and it will definitely keep Kizaru and others from taking care of other things.
"Report, a large number of ships spotted at eleven o'clock!"
"It's the Seagull Flag, it's Marinford's fleet, and the World Government's ships are also in the fleet!"
Just as Mihawk was enjoying his drink, the new navy on the lookout suddenly cheered loudly. The loud voice even drowned out the sound of the waves, cheering up everyone on the deck.
"Bang!"
The cabin door opened, and Abel quickly emerged, his eyes gleaming with a fierce look. He was no longer wearing his mask. His identity as a member of the Lunaria clan had once caused him endless trouble. He had also feared the World Government's annihilation, so he wore a mask to avoid revealing his true identity.
But under the protection of the new navy, Abel no longer had such ideas.
So what if his identity was exposed? He was now the new Navy Special Operations Officer. Would the World Government dare to go to Wan Guo and provoke Yoriichi Tsugakuni?!
Abel is not only not afraid of the World Government's annihilation, he also wants to return all the suffering he has endured to the Celestial Dragons! Abel chose to follow Tsugikuni Yoriichi, partly because he was forced by Yoriichi's strength, but more importantly because Yoriichi shared the same goal as him.
That is something Kaido, the former Big Brother, would never do.
"Mihawk, this time, can we attack as we please?!"
Abel looked at Mihawk who was slowly getting up and asked.
Every time he fought against Marinford's navy, he felt constrained.
"Our goal is to destroy the World Government's ships and capture the people on board."
"If anyone resists, just attack them as you please!"
Mihawk and Yoriichi are completely different. In his opinion, enemies are enemies and partners are partners. There is no friendship between him and the Marine Headquarters.
"call out--"
While Mihawk and Abel were talking, a slight sound was heard beside Mihawk, and the figure of the bear appeared silently on the deck.
The three of them gathered together, and the shadow of the naval fleet in the distance also appeared on the horizon.
Ten warships were surrounding the World Government's ship, sailing quickly on the sea.
At the same time as the New Navy discovered the other side, the other side seemed to have also noticed the "small boat" behind them. In Mihawk's sight, he could vaguely see the stern of the warship that was at the rear, and someone was waving flags.
The meaning is simple:
"You are in danger."
"You should stop the boat immediately."
Mihawk had sharp eyesight, and after understanding the meaning of the flag signal, he pursed his lips and sneered:
"Humph, you're really arrogant!"
"Raise our flag!"
As he spoke, Mihawk drew his long sword from behind him and walked towards the bow of the ship.
The golden phoenix flag of the new navy slowly rose, and the naval fleet in the distance obviously noticed this. A shrill alarm sounded on the warship at the end.
The warship's captain, Stirles, who had just been promoted to vice admiral for his outstanding achievements, heard the shrill alarm from the bow of the ship and immediately asked his subordinates:
"Why sound the alarm?!"
"What's going on? Why are you sounding the alarm?!"
In response, the navy in the observation tower shouted in surprise through the loudspeaker:
"The New Navy! The New Navy is behind us!"
"No, rebels, it's rebels!"
The rebels and the new navy mentioned by the lookouts are actually the same force.
After hearing this, Stirles's face changed suddenly. He was about to climb up the watchtower to check the situation when a strong sense of crisis suddenly enveloped his heart.
A cold chill inexplicably emanated from my mind.
"Enemy attack, enemy attack!!!"
A sharp sound came from the horn. Stirles hurried to the side of the ship and leaned over to look behind it. What he saw was a terrifying slash coming from the waves, and the target was the warship he was on.
