One Piece Overlord

On the fifth day after the war, the ghost-faced ship arrived at the Shampoo Islands.

After Luffy and others made a big fuss, the Celestial Dragons here have restrained themselves a lot. At least now there are no arrogant and domineering Celestial Dragons on the streets.

It seems that in order to maintain the face of the Tianlong people, an unknown naval vice-admiral was sent to station here, with the euphemistic name: bandit suppression.

This lieutenant general, who was "ordered in times of crisis", huddled in the camp and could not come out after a symbolic inspection.

The navy and the pirates seemed to have reached some kind of agreement silently.

If you don't cause trouble, I won't come to trouble you.

After all, this is an extraordinary period. Without veteran lieutenant generals and generals in charge, those notorious pirates are really not something that ordinary people can suppress.

The pirates are also much more low-key. After all, Kizaru also came here before. In front of many people, he kicked several famous rookie pirates one by one, leaving him unable to take care of himself.

It is estimated that this guy will have psychological shadow when he sees Kizaru in the future.

As one of the most developed cities in the world, the Chambord Islands is also famous for its heavy industry, and its unique coating technology is world-famous. Not only that, there are also many shipwrights here, all of whom have been experienced in strong winds and waves.

Because of Thor's new plan, the Ghost Face Ship is almost going to undergo a major demolition. Generally speaking, except for the keel, everything else has to be moved.

The price is naturally high, equivalent to half of Sol's head.

Seeing the bags of money being handed over, Lin's sad eyes made Sol's scalp numb, and he had to take Lin shopping.

Although he said it was shopping, Sol actually had a purpose.

The newspaper before the war said that the former Pirate King's right hand - Pluto Rayleigh appeared here.

Thor wanted to see this living legend, but unfortunately, the two of them did not.

Women can never avoid shopping, shopping, shopping.

Even Lin is the same.

When the two came out from the end of the street, Thor was already holding a bunch of things.

Sol has finally seen Lin's power. A set of clothes cost 1500 beli, but the final transaction price was only 500 beli. Her bargaining attitude with the boss made it more like she was the boss.

In the end, the store owner sent the two of them out with tears in their eyes. They probably suffered a heavy loss.

Lin also chose two clothes for Thor, both red coats, the same color as her cloak, and strongly urged Thor to change into them on the spot.

After shopping around, the two walked into a tavern to have something to eat and rest for a while.

The boss is a very capable middle-aged woman with short hair.

He was puffing away a cigarette with a cigarette in his hand.

Due to its remote location, there were only two tables in the store. Sol found a seat against the wall and sat down, ordered two beers and looked up at the TV.

The TV was broadcasting news about the navy, saying that the navy had achieved a huge victory in the war, defeating Whitebeard's gang and killing Whitebeard and Ace on the spot.

These things have been broadcast for several days in a row, and they are just meant to deceive people who don't know the truth.

Just when Saul was about to look back, the news replay suddenly changed to a live broadcast.

Admiral Sengoku is being interviewed about the aftermath of the war.

Seng Guo had severe dark circles under his eyes and a patch of gray hair. He seemed to be suffering a lot these days. He pushed away two microphones that were very close together and began to speak.

"Hello everyone in the audience, I am Marshal Sengoku of the Navy Headquarters. Regarding this war, there is no doubt that the Navy won the victory. Whitebeard is dead. Everyone no longer has to be afraid of Whitebeard. Please rest assured that no matter what happens, The navy will stand up to any difficulty. Please remember, justice will prevail!! At the same time, I am here to announce something."

Warring States paused for a moment, then said, "Because of my decision-making, Malinfando suffered unimaginable damage, many people temporarily lost their homes, and many families lost their loved ones. Here, I would like to say a word to the families of all the martyrs. I'm sorry... At the same time, I announce my official resignation as Navy Marshal."

There was a brief silence on the battlefield, and then there was an uproar. Reporters hurriedly asked why and who the next marshal of the navy was.

Warring States skipped the first question and replied: "The new marshal will be appointed this month. Before then, I will continue to act as marshal temporarily. Please be patient."

.....................

"I can't believe that the Warring States Period actually resigned as marshal..."

Lin said in a daze.

As a pirate, she naturally understands many of the gentle policies of the Warring States Period.

It can be said that many pirates still want Sengoku to continue to be a pirate.

Thor smiled softly and said, "The next marshal, if nothing else goes wrong, will be the general Aokiji or Akainu. As for the Warring States Period, even if he resigns as marshal, he will not leave the navy, but will move from the front desk to the navy. It’s just behind the scenes..."

Lin blinked and asked confusedly why.

"This method is just a fig leaf for the navy. After all, it is extremely disgraceful for pirates to come to your door, not to mention being broadcast live by Bucky the Clown, so there must be someone to do this. Stand up and take responsibility. Naturally, this person cannot be found at random, and Sengoku is the most suitable person. At the same time, the top brass of the navy do not want to give up on Sengoku, a talent, and will definitely find an excuse to let him continue to stay in the navy."

Thor took a sip of beer, moistened his throat, and continued, "However, when the Warring States Period shifts from the front desk to the backstage, a lot of things will inevitably be let go, so there will definitely be a lot of changes in the Navy."

"Why?" Lin asked cutely. In terms of mental skills, even ten Lins tied together would not be Sol's opponent.

"Although the Navy is unanimous in its external affairs, it is not as peaceful internally as imagined. It must be divided into many factions secretly fighting against each other. Sengoku is in a high position, and there must be people from his faction. If my prediction is correct, Sengoku has not announced a new marshal just now. Because there are differences in internal opinions. Although he leaves office, he will definitely let someone from his faction take office. At this critical moment, people from the other faction will take the opportunity to jump out and oppose. The two sides are in a stalemate, so naturally they cannot immediately confirm the new appointment. marshal."

"Two factions...you mean Aokiji and Akainu???"

Lin suddenly realized.

Thor nodded and said: "Yes, there are only three generals and Garp who are capable of taking up posts in the navy after the Warring States Period. However, Garp has always regarded fame and wealth as rubbish. If he had not been a general long ago, he would definitely He will not become a marshal who will cause more troubles. Among the three generals, Kizaru has a lazy personality and has no faction, so he will definitely not compete. The only ones left are Aokiji and Akainu."

Thor sneered twice and said, "Although Aokiji is smart, his mind is not as meticulous as Akainu's, and his methods are not as ruthless as Akainu's. I'm afraid he hasn't realized that Sengoku had planned to promote him before the war, so he was on top His performance in the war was mediocre. And Akainu must have noticed something a long time ago, so he stalked Whitebeard on the battlefield. Even his performance is also to accumulate prestige."

Thor sneered and shook his head regretfully. "It's a pity that due to Warring States' calculations, Aokihiko accidentally played a bad card. I don't know if Aokihiko will regret it to death."

Lin also covered her mouth and snickered.

The two sat for a while, and just as they were about to leave, a bald man came in from the door. He shouted loudly and asked the landlady to give him a glass of strong wine. Then he sat carelessly with several drunkards. Then, he grabbed a handful of peanuts and threw them in his mouth. They looked like they knew each other.

"Damn, it's so unlucky. I was almost killed by Blackbeard."

The bald man cursed and looked angry.

The people at the same table laughed and sneered disdainfully, "Come on, who do you think you are? How could a big shot like Blackbeard have contact with you? Don't act like you are great."

Several people laughed loudly, obviously not believing what the bald man said.

It's true. Little people like them can only find the meaning of their existence at the wine table by hiding in a pub every day, drinking two glasses of the cheapest liquor, and chatting about major events that shocked the world.

In fact, they know very well what kind of people they are, so they also know very well that they will not have any intersection with those big shots.

For example, if they get together to fight here, a group of lower-class marines may eventually come to take them away. Will the general come? No, they're not even worthy of the general's attention.

This is the tragedy of little people, it is difficult to become famous.

"You don't believe it, do you? I dare to swear to God, I definitely had close contact with Blackbeard!!! He even attacked me!!"

The bald man gritted his teeth and shouted.

This was originally a piece of bragging rights, but no one believed it!

Just like before, a pirate boasted in the tavern that he had assassinated Whitebeard and escaped smoothly. Although the assassination failed, his courage to assassinate Whitebeard and his ability to escape with his life were recognized by the people around him, and they all admired him.

Later, he committed a crime locally and was caught by the navy, and the incident was gradually forgotten.

Later, during the war, someone broadcast a live broadcast of the battlefield battle. The world saw Whitebeard's figure sweeping the battlefield like a ghost, and then remembered that guy bragging about assassinating Whitebeard and escaping.

At that time, someone said lightly: Could it be that that guy shot Whitebeard eight hundred miles away and then turned around and ran away...

After all, after seeing Whitebeard's combat power sweeping through thousands of armies, no one could imagine that a guy who was caught by just ten marines could escape safely after the assassination failed.

"Hey, bald man, didn't you shoot at Blackbeard eight hundred miles away? Hahahaha."

Everyone laughed.

Even Lin and Sol burst into laughter.

Calculating it this way, in order to save Luffy in Marineland, he knocked back Akainu for hundreds of meters with one punch. If he told it, wouldn't he be able to brag about it for a lifetime?

The bald man's face turned red, he drank the wine in the glass angrily, slapped the table angrily and stood up, staring at a few people with red eyes, which frightened some of them to the point where they dared not speak.

"What I said is absolutely true! Just half an hour ago, I discovered Bonnie from The Evil Generation on the south side of Island No. 42. I followed her secretly all the way. When I followed her to the beach, I wanted to secretly take a photo, but she was Someone jumped me on my butt, I turned around and saw that it was Blackbeard and his crew!!!”

"I heard Blackbeard say with my own ears that he wanted to catch Bonnie! If I hadn't run fast, I might have died!"

Seeing that the bald man was angry, several people laughed and said: "Brother, don't be anxious, don't be anxious, we believe in you, we must believe you. Come and sit down, sit down and drink."

Someone helped the bald man sit down, poured him a glass of wine, patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Brother, you will become famous in the future. If you get rich in the future, don't forget me, brother."

The bald head was stunned, obviously not knowing why.

The man smiled and winked. "Anyway, you are the one who survived Blackbeard's attack. This is a real thing. Maybe there is surveillance over there."

"Yes! This is a hundred times more powerful than assassinating the guy with Whitebeard!"

"Yes, brother, don't worry. I've been helping you with publicity in the past few days. There will definitely be a big shot asking you to be a bodyguard at a high price!"

"Don't forget your brothers then."

Several people were laughing and joking together again.

"What a pity." Lin shook her head regretfully. "That little vixen was caught by Blackbeard. Someone is destined to have no chance, tsk tsk."

Sol spit out a mouthful of wine, "What do you mean someone has no chance? It makes me sound like a womanizer."

Lin picked up a tissue and wiped her hands, then wiped the corners of Sol's mouth, and finally straightened his collar, and said with a smile, "You are so frivolous, you can deceive others, but if you dare to pretend in front of me, kill you."

Sol felt cold under his crotch and sweated like rain.
