Pirates: Begin as the god who destroys the sky island

"That's strange," Pu Lan reached out and knocked on the table. "If the people on our side are on our side, why don't they dare to reveal their whereabouts? Is the news false, or is there another conspiracy behind it?"

"It's still unclear whether they are friends or foes."

Bastiu also couldn't figure out the true intention of the person who sent the telegram, which was why he couldn't make a decision for the moment.

"If the Statu Pirates really plan to hijack Tianshangjin, I believe they will not be stupid enough to leak such important information to everyone."

Kadaru took over the conversation and analyzed: "So, the person who sent the telegram may be one of them, planning to kill someone with a borrowed knife!"

Pulan nodded: "Using the navy to get rid of competitors is indeed like the evil nature of those pirates."

"There is another possibility," Bastiu's somewhat dull voice revealed from behind the mask: "It is that the news about Statu and the others has indeed been leaked, and another group of people has learned about it."

"That group of people is also coveting the gold in the sky, so they revealed the news to us in advance, maybe hoping that we would lose both sides in a fight with them, and finally profit from it!"

Bastiu proposed another hypothesis.

Without waiting for the other major generals to raise objections, Bastiu handed them another document in his hand.

"This is the information about the four groups of pirates that I asked my adjutant to investigate after I received the news."

"Brandon Statu, a superhuman-Nian Nian Fruit user with a bounty of 1000 million Baileys. The Statu Pirates are the most powerful pirate group in Demon Valley Town, with a total of three large ships. Pirate ships, five medium-sized pirate ships with [-] members.”

"Bartley Angus, the captain of the Bass Pirates, has the superhuman type, Mu Mu Fruit, and Poison Wood form ability. He has a bounty of 800 million Baileys. He has a large pirate ship and four medium-sized pirate ships. A pirate ship with thousands of members.”

"Selt is the captain of the Fish-Man Pirates. He is half-human and half-fish. Almost half of his men are fish-men. He has a bounty of 300 million beli."

"Gabriel, the captain of the Mantis Pirates, is an ability user of the animal type, Bug Fruit, and Mantis form. He has a bounty of 850 million beli."

Bastiu recited the information about Statu and others like a treasure trove.

"Among the four groups of pirates, three are Devil Fruit users, and one is a pirate with fish-man blood. He can exert great fighting power in the water."

Bastiu looked at the four people with somewhat enlightened expressions, and then said: "If I were them, I would definitely not choose to fight head-on with the navy from the beginning."

"I will wait for the opportunity to make a sneak attack, use the scattered troops to disrupt the frigate's formation, and even send some cannon fodder to entangle your four warships."

"The remaining people will go straight into the main ship and attack the enemy's vital point, which is me."

Bastiu made simple gestures with his hands on the conference table, as if it was a battlefield: "As long as we can capture the escorting Vice Admiral, we can then divide our forces to deal with the other four naval warships. Even if we let these If the battleship loses the ability to move and cannot pursue, it will naturally win."

Hearing this, Kadaru raised objections: "To achieve this level, the pirates must know our layout very well, and why should they be confident that they can disrupt the mobility of the warship, unless..."

"That's right, unless there's something inside." Bastiu nodded and said.

"Internal response?"

The rear admirals collectively changed their expressions, a little unbelievable. The people who could escort the heavenly gold this time were all elites in the navy headquarters. The officers were all top students who graduated from the headquarters' military academies.

If he said that his officers would collude with the navy, they would be the first to not believe it.

"Sir Bastiu, I believe there will be no traitors under my command!"

Pulan once said to Bastiu in a positive tone that he did not believe that his men would betray the navy.

"Don't worry, the enemy is not our navy."

Bastiu said something that made the four of them breathe a sigh of relief.

Since there is no problem within the navy, the only loophole can only be the ten frigates on the periphery.

These frigates are the escorts of the Tribute Kingdom, accompanying the navy to Mariejoia to pay tribute to the Celestial Dragons.

On weekdays, the navy also lets them do what they want, regardless of whether there is any problem. If there is any problem, it can only be them.

Bastiu didn't pretend to be any more and gave the answer directly: "It's Dauger's adjutant. I have him under control."

Daugzier is the supreme commander of the ten frigates. He was responsible for all the previous handovers of Heavenly Gold.

Unexpectedly, there turned out to be a mole among his men.

If he didn't know anything, he might not have noticed it, but since he knew Statu's plan in advance, Bastiyu took advantage of the situation and quickly caught the tail of the insider.

"I don't know when Statu took control of the adjutant's family and threatened him to leak the information about the Tiantian Gold Escort Team. When Statu attacked, he was also responsible for destroying the power rooms of your four warships."

Bastiu told the four Kadaru people the information he had interrogated from Adjutant Dogzel.

"Now that we know their plan, there is nothing to fear. We can give them a big surprise then."

Pulan once said viciously and sternly, wishing that those hateful pirates would be punished immediately.

"Planzen, I'll leave this matter to you. As for the adjutant, don't kill him yet. Let him continue to hang Statu and the others."

Bastiu ordered, "As for the rest of you, don't reveal your whereabouts. On the surface, continue to remain the same as before, waiting for the fish to take the bait."

After receiving clear instructions, the four major generals took their orders and left.

Bastiu sat there, looking at the four generals leaving, his eyes flashing as if he was thinking about something.

After a while, he sensed that all four of them had returned to his ship, and then he quietly said, "Tell me, are there any problems with the four of them?"

In the empty conference room, there was only Bastiu talking to himself, but after he asked the question, another voice suddenly sounded: "They are all disciples brought out by Teacher Zefa. They still have the basic beliefs. It’s unlikely there’s a problem.”

As the sound rang out, a man wearing the uniform of a vice admiral appeared silently on the seat opposite Bastiu.

The man was wearing a navy cloak and a helmet with a two-headed dragon pattern on his head. The handles of several swords were exposed behind the cloak. His expression looked fierce, and he was not a very easy-to-get character at first glance.

Even the four rear admirals who had just left did not know that Bastiu was not the only one among the team escorting the Heavenly Gold.

Even if Bastiu and others didn't know Statu's intentions in advance, they would probably suffer a big loss if they rushed in with full confidence.

A lieutenant general in the navy headquarters, they can still rely on the number of people and sneak attacks to have the power to fight.

With the addition of a vice admiral, they were undoubtedly defeated.

After all, they were just a group of pirates operating in the first half of the Grand Line. Compared to the Lieutenant General, who was already considered the backbone of the Navy's senior leadership, they still looked inadequate.

"Balk, I thought that General Akainu sending you here was unnecessary, but I didn't expect that he actually got it right."

Looking at his friend Balk, who was also a member of the hawk generals under Akainu, Bastiu sighed with emotion.

Because there was a special devil fruit in the heavenly gold escorted this time, General Akainu thought it was of great importance, so he secretly sent Balk to accompany him in order to prevent unexpected situations.
