Pirate Catcher in the Rye

"Just kidding, don't take it seriously."

"I heard that 'Fire Fist' Ace is going to be publicly executed. Doesn't Senior Rayleigh have any ideas?"

Hawkins looked at Reilly curiously. This was the doubt that had always been hidden in his heart.

Why was Rayleigh willing to accompany Luffy to Marine Vando after the war, but didn't save Ace?

Logically speaking, Ace is Roger's son, so their relationship should be closer.

"How terrible, Basil Hawkins!"

"He even encouraged 'Pluto' Rayleigh to take action. Our navy cannot afford to offend two living legends!"

Kizaru looked scared, and then patted his chest gently.

Hmm... I really deserve a beating!

However, Hawkins knew that he had nothing to fear. The Navy was fighting against the Yonko as a group, not the Whitebeard Pirates alone.

The two are not at the same level at all, so it doesn't matter if I add another Rayleigh!

During the war, both Warring States and Garp were just fishing in troubled waters. In addition, the three generals were just moving their fingers at will.

Do not!

It should be two, Akainu still works very hard.

Not only that, the Navy's two general candidates did not appear from beginning to end, and this is only the strength of the Navy.

Don’t forget, behind the navy is the world government!

"I'm old and can't stand the trouble anymore, and... Ace is a supporter of the old era, so it makes no sense at all!"

Riley stroked his glasses and sighed softly.

He didn't save Ace for two reasons:

On the one hand, the navy is too powerful. If he goes, the navy and the world government will inevitably increase their stakes, and the situation will only get worse.

On the other hand, Roger and them want to start a new era, rather than continue the will of the old era like Whitebeard.

If Luffy took a new path that the Roger Pirates could not reach, Ace is undoubtedly a believer in the will of the old era.

His existence will hinder the arrival of the new era!

What this era needs is a king who has the courage to break the rules, overcome obstacles and change the world.

The king’s magnanimity, the king’s ambition!

After waiting for so many years, the wave of pirates finally surged again, and he saw that possibility in this generation of supernovas!

Although he admires Luffy the most, it is only because Luffy is very similar to Roger and has the blood of the 'D' family, which is his personal preference.

but,

This sea is always full of miracles, and beyond that, there are countless possibilities.

Although the methods are different, they lead to the same destination, and he also hopes that others can reach that end!

Although the 'D' family always makes waves, they have indeed never succeeded in the past 800 years.

Every time, I just passed by the door, but did not grab the door handle and open the door to a new era!

"Yeah, that's such a shame." Hawkins nodded in agreement.

Although the Whitebeard Pirates gave Ace the warmth he longed for, they also deprived him of his future.

From the moment he joined the Whitebeard Pirates and was willing to be inferior to others, he was eliminated by the new era.

He chose to bow to family affection and put down his ambition to be a king!

"What good luck..."

Reilly took a serious look at Hawkins and sighed: "In a blink of an eye, Whitebeard is coming to an end. You were born in the best of times!"

In his opinion, the collapse of the Whitebeard Pirates' building is a foregone conclusion, and other supernovae will need time to grow.

The Navy is like delivering the fruits of Whitebeard's legacy to Hawkins!

"That's so easy. According to my divination, Blackbeard is the final winner, and... that guy is also a 'D'!"

As if he thought of something, Hawkins sighed helplessly.

Of course, he did this on purpose!

Now he has Kizaru by his side, a member of the navy who is a member of the navy and the best sounding board.

Presumably he will be able to accurately convey his deep 'love' for Blackbeard to the Warring States Period!

"Blackbeard? D?"

Kizaru murmured softly.

The Basil family's divination skills are very famous throughout the North Sea, and it is said that Hawkins is also very good at divination.

With Hawkins' strength, he didn't have the confidence to defeat Blackbeard?

If you think about it carefully, Blackbeard is indeed the trigger of this incident and has a 'D' in his name.

Is there some conspiracy?

However, because his strength did not reach the first level of the Yonko and he became the King of the Shichibukai, the navy temporarily lowered its guard!

"Don't you know? The scar on red-haired Shanks's right face was caused by Blackbeard!" Hawkins looked at Rayleigh with a strange look on his face and continued to add insult to injury.

It was as if he was wondering if Rayleigh was hiding something on purpose, or if there was any major ulterior action!

Uh?

Reilly felt a little uncomfortable being looked at by Hawkins.

Although they had dealt with the Whitebeard Pirates a lot before, he was indeed not familiar with Blackbeard!

Besides, he has retired, how could there be any conspiracy.

He actually said this in front of Kizaru. Is it because he thinks the navy's surveillance of him is not strong enough?

It's so bad!

However, Kizaru didn't think so.

You and Red Hair were once partners on the same boat. Wouldn't you know such important information?

in addition…

Although people outside the 'D' family would occasionally cause trouble, they never reached the level of threatening the rule of the world government.

That's why 'D' is called the natural enemy of God!

"My partner was seriously injured. Now that it's over here, let's meet again if we are destined..."

Whoosh!

Hawkins acted at this moment as if he thought he had told something that everyone knew, but in the end found out that others did not know.

Then he randomly made an excuse, just like trying to get over it!

……

After a few hours,

Marine Headquarters Marine Fando.

"Basil Hawkins is just a supernova. Is he really that strong?" Sengoku looked at Kizaru with doubt.

Could it be that this guy is lazy again?

"It's very strong! The strength is far beyond imagination. Even I was seriously injured accidentally."

Kizaru almost said the word 'serious injury' through gritted teeth, his tone was very serious, and his eyes clearly showed how unwilling he was.

As if he was worried about Sengoku's questioning, Kizaru pointed to his abdomen with an innocent face, which was still wrapped with gauze!

"Hawkins is just a Yonko at most. The most important thing is Blackbeard. His strength, and..."

"It was precisely in order to find out this information that I had to grit my teeth and fight to the death with Hawkins."

"There are more than 3000 people, a dozen masters who know how to domineering, hundreds of sea tower stone weapons, and a hail of bullets composed of sea tower stone bullets."

"Oh! I almost couldn't come back. It seems like I'm really old!"

Kizaru sighed heavily and stared blankly at the blood-soaked wounds on his chest and ankles.

I, Porusalino, have shed my blood for the Navy!

"Thanks to you for this Tianlong incident. You should rest for a few days before the public execution!"

"That's all we can do now. Don't worry, Marshal Warring States, I will rest as soon as possible and prepare for the public execution in a week's time!"

"Oh, what a troubled time!"

Kizaru sighed heavily and limped out of the conference room.

Subsequently,

Kizaru arrived at his residence in Marineland and casually pulled off the bandages around his waist and ankles.

"Hey, the wound has been closed!"

With a sigh, Kizaru sat on the sofa, made himself a cup of tea, and stretched out comfortably.

This is normal life!

"Thanks to my cleverness, I went to the infirmary to get a few bags of blood and soaked the gauze."

"Speaking of which...it should be a paid vacation!"
