Malinfando, in the Sengoku office.

"Ah, this guy Golden Lion..."

Warring States rubbed his head, and the newspaper in his hand was about the golden lion's reappearance in the East China Sea.

This man, who was the first man in history to escape from Impel Down City, will probably cause another bloody storm when he comes back this time.

"Golden Lion, it is indeed difficult to deal with. This hidden danger needs to be solved as soon as possible."

Hezhong crossed his hands on the table and said slowly.

"How about you two old guys join forces again and capture him."

You know, at that time, the Golden Lion made a fuss at the Navy headquarters because of Roger's surrender. In the end, it was Garp who was in his prime and Warring States teamed up to capture him. Even so, the entire naval base was still completely destroyed.

One of the big reasons is that the golden lion's light fruit is really powerful in terms of destruction and guerrilla capabilities.

"Hey Xiaohe, I'm not young anymore. Besides, you don't know the ability of that guy Golden Lion. If he really wants to leave, Warring States and I can't stop him."

Garp said a bit rogue while eating senbei.

"It's better to let that guy Kizaru go. He's just right against the Golden Lion."

Among the three generals, Kizaru is the only one with the ability to fly, and his speed is enough to compete with the Golden Lion.

"Garp, Kizaru alone may not be able to defeat the Golden Lion. Moreover, we only know that he is in the East China Sea, and we don't know his specific location at all."

Warring States knocked on the table and pointed out the key point, that is, the navy only knew the traces of the golden lion's appearance, but did not know where he was specifically.

Moreover, Shiji's pirate group is known as the Flying Pirates. Whether it is a ship or even an island, Shiji can make it weightless and float in the air, making it even more difficult for the navy to detect it.

"Then what should we do? If we leave things alone, I'm afraid there will be an extra emperor in the new world."

He was a little worried. They knew the character of their 'old friend', and they were probably well prepared for his comeback after so many years of silence.

With his strength, as long as his reputation spreads, he will immediately gather a powerful force, and by then he will become the fifth emperor.

After all, Golden Lion is a figure who can compete with Whitebeard in terms of fame and strength.

By then, the pressure faced by the Navy may become more severe than ever.

"Do you think even if Golden Lion's Flying Pirates make a comeback, where will he choose to establish his territory?"

Warring States held a cup of tea and said calmly.

"You mean, you're going to put them together in the new world to cause internal friction?"

Crane understood the thoughts of this old friend in an instant. The first half of the Grand Route was undoubtedly firmly controlled by the navy, and even the Four Emperors did not dare to stretch their hands and feet here.

One Yonko cannot defeat three admirals, let alone old guys like Sengoku and Garp sitting at the headquarters. If a battle starts here, no matter which Yonko fleet it is, there is no chance of winning.

This is not the case for the Whitebeard Pirates who are at their peak, let alone the Flying Pirates who have just recovered.

So even if the Golden Lion prepares to make a comeback, the location will only be in the new world.

The territory of the New World has already been divided up by the other four emperors, so if the Golden Lion wants to win a place, it will inevitably conflict with the other sea emperors.

At that time, the navy can attack the new world and cut off a piece of territory. Even if it returns without success, the collision between the Golden Lion and any of the four emperors will inevitably cause considerable losses.

The Navy is definitely happy to hear about this kind of thing.

Garp chuckled and said: "I think the title of the Warring States Period should not be called [Wise General], but [Traitorous Hero]."

But obviously he also supported Warring States' plan.

"I'm just afraid that Shiji doesn't follow our ideas."

Sengoku put down his cup and ignored Garp's teasing.

"The soldiers will come and stop us."

"That's all."

He shook his head. The situation in the world had changed drastically. Whether it was the new pirates this year, the revolutionary army active all over the world, or the Hunter Guild that was growing rapidly and causing her strong uneasiness, all of this gave her a headache.

"Dong dong."

There was a sudden knock on the office door, and Zeng Guo frowned. He had clearly ordered not to disturb their conversation if there was nothing important, so why would someone knock on the door at this time?

"That's not quite right."

Garp squinted his eyes and seemed to see the scene outside through the wooden door.

"come in."

Warring States also cheered up. The three people here were all veteran strong men. They were covered with domineering aura. It was impossible to tell that something was wrong with the situation at this time.

"Crunch."

The office door was pushed open, and a man in a suit, a top hat, and a cane walked in.

He took off his hat and put it on his chest, bowed to Warring States and others, and then said with a smile: "I have seen the naval marshal, the naval hero, and the naval chief of staff."

"Devil Sheriff, Lafayette."

Warring States only hesitated for a second before finding the information about the person in front of him in his mind.

"I didn't expect that the Marshal would actually know this villain. It's such an honor."

Lafayette looked very surprised, and then added: "But this time, my identity is not the Demon Sheriff, but on behalf of the Blackbeard Pirates, I came to discuss a business with the Marshal."

Garp seemed to be sitting on the chair casually, but his heart was already burning with anger. If necessary, he might burst out and pin Lafayette to death at any time.

A little pirate dared to break into the Navy Headquarters with such arrogance. What's even more disgusting is that the Navy Headquarters, which was heavily guarded, was broken in so easily, and the people outside didn't even have a hint of defense!

This is simply an insult to the Navy Headquarters!

The same was true for Sengoku, but as a naval marshal, his energy-raising skills were not bad. He just replied lightly: "I have never heard of the Blackbeard Pirates."

Lafayette was not annoyed at all by Sengoku's slightly provocative words: "It doesn't matter if you haven't heard of them. It won't be long before the name of the Blackbeard Pirates will be resounding throughout the world."

Lafayette's face was full of confidence: "I believe that the Warring States Marshal will not care about these few minutes. You should be wondering why the Golden Lion appeared this time, right?"

"Who told you that pirates have the right to make deals with the navy?!"

Garp clenched his fists and stood up, ready to beat Lafayette away.

"Wait, Garp, listen to what he wants to say." Sengoku stopped Garp.

Lafayette smiled lightly: "Marshal Warring States, please ask Lieutenant General Garp to avoid what I'm going to say next."

"What did you say?!" Garp punched the table and stared at Lafayette with an unkind expression.

Sengoku narrowed his eyes: "Let's just say it directly. Garp is a hero of the navy. There is nothing that cannot be said in front of him."

Lafayette hesitated for a moment and did not insist. Instead, he said despite the tremendous pressure brought by Garp: "Golden Lion Shiji accepted the invitation of our captain Blackbeard to help."

"The purpose is to capture the second division captain of the Whitebeard Pirates, [Fire Fist] Ace."

Lafayette did not say anything about his captain's defeat by Yas and Ace. He was ordered by Blackbeard to negotiate this time, and of course he would not say anything that might be harmful to his own interests.

"What did you say?!" Garp's fists clicked. Ace had been raised by him since he was a child. It could be said that he was no different from his own grandson. How could he not be excited when he heard the news.

"What do you want to say?" Warring States glanced at this old friend and then asked straight to the point. He knew that Lafayette's visit this time was definitely not as simple as telling them the news.

"Haha, our captain hopes to use [Fire Fist] Ace's head in exchange for a position in the Shichibukai."

Lafayette kicked his feet and stared at Sengoku with a calm expression.

At this time, Sengoku's heart was already in turmoil. After such a long investigation, he basically knew that Ace was the son of Gol D. Roger.

Not to mention that Ace is still the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates. If it is run properly, it will definitely be a rare opportunity.

An opportunity for naval power to intervene in the new world!

But Sengoku's face remained calm. As a naval marshal, he was certainly no stranger to negotiations. On the negotiating table, the more you care about something, the more you have to show a nonchalant attitude, otherwise there will be big consequences. You may be asked to raise the price, resulting in a higher price.

"The number of Shichibukai in His Majesty's Majesty is already full. Why do you think we should offend a Shichibukai just for Ace?"

Sengoku asked back, the Shichibukai is now full, and as long as they do not commit crimes, the navy has no power to deprive them of their titles.

"Hehehe, Marshal Sengoku, Ace is not an ordinary pirate. What the Whitebeard Pirates value most is the relationship between the members. If you execute Ace publicly, do you think Whitebeard will be willing to give in?" How about using the entire team’s strength to attack Marineland and rescue Ace?”

Lafayette raised the corners of his mouth and looked at Sengoku eagerly.

If this thing succeeds, Lafayette will become an important promoter of this crazy era.

This kind of behavior that drives the historical tide is really irresistible.

"snort!"

Garp snorted coldly, stood up with a sullen face, and walked out of the door without saying a word.

Judging from his knowledge of the Warring States Period, he was very likely to agree to this plan, and since he had a close relationship with Ace, it was no longer convenient for him to stay there.

On the other hand, he couldn't accept that he became one of Ace's murderers.

Garp's originally burly body became desolate in an instant, and his clenched fists were loosened at some point.

"Ace, Luffy, why don't you two guys disobey me..."

Warring States and He looked at Garp leaving with a sad look in their eyes, but they still cheered up and faced the negotiation before them, because they both knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

"We can agree to your request, but we hope to exchange Bailey for Ace, not the position of Shichibukai."

Sengoku spoke. If possible, he did not want to lose any Shichibukai, because if there was to be a war with the Whitebeard Pirates, then every Shichibukai would be an important combat force and could not be lost easily. .

Unexpectedly, Lafayette shook his head. The position of the Shichibukai was very important in Blackbeard's plan, and they could not compromise on this matter.

"Our captain must have the position of Shichibukai. Regarding the position of Shichibukai, I have a good suggestion."

Lafayette had already made a record of this matter: "I wonder if Marshal Sengoku knows one thing, that is, Ace and Shichibukai [Black Crow] Yas are actually brothers."

Sengoku's eyes narrowed. Their investigation of Yas was limited to Donghai's origin, and they had no idea about the origins between Yas and Ace.

"Are you telling the truth?"

"Absolutely true."

Blackbeard, who was defeated by the two, has the most say in this matter.

Sengoku's eyes flashed. If what Lafayette said was true, then when Ace was executed, not only would he not be able to help, but he might also become a huge destabilizing factor.

If Yasi temporarily rebels, it may cause huge impact and damage to the navy's formation.

This is absolutely disastrous in such a large war, and may even affect the direction of the war to some extent.

"We will investigate your information, and if it is true, then we can agree to your request."

After thinking about it, the Warring States Period finally made a decision. The navy needed a big victory to completely solve the stubborn problem of the Whitebeard Pirates, and use this victory to declare to the world that the navy was the most powerful, and that the navy had a great influence on the entire ocean. Have absolute control!

Even the legendary pirates can't stop the navy!

"Then I'll take my leave. If Marshal Warring States has any news, you can contact me through this phone bug."

Lafayette bent slightly, placed a phone bug on the table, and walked out of the door.

As for He and Sengoku, they were lost in thought. Such a big matter cannot be decided by just the two of them.

To start a war with the Whitebeard Pirates, the entire Great Channel, and even the most elite navy in the entire world, must be mobilized, and all the combat power of the navy must be mobilized. Only then can the battle be guaranteed to be won.

And these things cannot be accomplished in a day or two, they require long-term preparation.

Catching Ace was just the first step.
