Ultimate Blade Shadow in One Piece Navy
Chapter 538 Cavendish: I really want to escape
After being asked this question by Wulaoxing, Kong looked up at the ceiling of the conference room at a 45-degree angle. Does he know about this?Let's put it this way, he was the one who asked Warring States to resign from Wulaoxing.
As the commander-in-chief of the entire army, Sora had the right to appoint or remove the navy marshal, but after Sengoku revealed his intention to resign after this war, Sora directly threw the blame away.
Because if he were to take charge of this matter and agree to Warring States' resignation, then Wu Laoxing would definitely ask questions or even hold him accountable. After all, Warring States had made great contributions.
A naval marshal who has made great achievements, but loses his position as marshal shortly after making great achievements, will probably cause a lot of controversy, and as long as public opinion is consistent, Sora will take the blame.
And leaving this matter to Wulaoxing to handle, although it is inevitable that there will still be some bad publicity, but there is no need to take the blame himself, and Sora doesn't want to deal with this matter.
But it was impossible for him to tell Wu Laoxing openly: "Hey, seniors, I know that Warring States is about to resign. I let you handle it, just to make you take the blame."
If he dared to say that, I'm afraid Wulaoxing would annoy him to death and ask him to keep Warring States.
Therefore, even if Kong felt that Wu Laoxing would eventually guess the truth of this matter, he felt that he could not tell it personally. After all, as long as there is no evidence, all suspicions are just suspicions.
When Wu Laoxing saw Kong's reaction, he probably guessed something, but since everyone wanted to save face, it was naturally impossible to explain it too clearly.
Naosu Laoshi touched his beard at this time, looked at Sora, and said in a somewhat troubled tone: "Sengoku has indeed reached the age of retirement, but who will be the successor? And how to arrange Sengoku's positions after he retires? "
Hearing this, Sora finally stopped looking at the sky and looked at Old Man Naosu, saying: "Well... let the navy handle the matter to the navy itself, but for the latter, I do have a suggestion."
"Tell me."
Naosu Laoxing nodded and looked at Sora. He had already guessed that Sora had known about this for a long time. Therefore, it was very reasonable for Sora to make some plans in advance.
After seeing Naosu Laoxing's eyes, Sora suddenly smiled and said: "Commander of the entire army..."
"no!"
Before Kong finished speaking, the old sword-holding star on the side refused directly. Hearing this, the smile on Kong's face disappeared and he became a little unhappy. He crossed his arms again and stopped participating in the topic.
Several other veteran stars looked at each other with helpless expressions on their faces. Good guy, the Navy Marshal just wanted to resign and step down. Why is the Commander-in-Chief of the entire army acting like this?
Although Kong, the commander-in-chief of the entire army, is obviously no longer in charge, and even the job of being the marshal of the navy has been directly passed on to himself and others, this does not mean that he can be let go at will.
After all, Kong is much easier to control than Sengoku. It's not that Kong is weaker than Sengoku, but that Kong's philosophy is closer to the interests of the world government than Sengoku.
Soraya and Marie-Joa may cause trouble, or refute the five of them, but compared to that Sengoku guy...
Since taking over the position of marshal, what Sengoku has done is extremely against the wishes of the World Government and the five of them, although it has also brought a lot of benefits to the World Government.
Even in developing jurisdictions, fighting pirates, and strengthening the trust of the franchised countries in the world government, Sengoku did better than every naval marshal.
However, all of his actions were still carried out even after five of his own people vetoed them. He even had more than one act of killing first and then punishing later. This naval marshal... was just "absolute justice" on the surface.
Sora is already very biased towards the navy, and always considers the interests of the navy from the standpoint of the navy. If it were the Warring States period, I am afraid that all the resources that the commander of the army can control will be poured into the bottomless pit of the navy.
Therefore, in comparison, Wu Laoxing is more willing to tolerate Kong and wants him to be the commander-in-chief of the entire army, but it is absolutely impossible for Warring States to be in this position, because by then, it will not just be as simple as being angry.
Because the position of commander-in-chief of the army is too important to be dismissed at will, let alone dismissed. In the past 800 years, every time a commander-in-chief of the army takes office, it will bring about a huge storm of public opinion.
This forced Wulaoxing to personally exercise the authority of the commander-in-chief of the entire army for a long period of time, so that he could balance the various institutions within the world government.
Until Sora appeared, during the period when Sora recognized the Navy Marshal, he defeated Rocks and Roger, and also allowed the Navy to pioneer a real jurisdiction in the new world.
At that time, except for the CP's regular objections, no one else objected to Kong becoming the commander-in-chief of the entire army, so Wulaoxing re-delegated the authority of the commander-in-chief of the entire army to Kong.
But what about the Warring States Period?Sengoku's achievements and contributions are indeed more than Sora's, but he also has more enemies. Look at Skyler who grew up under his hands.
Skyler alone has attracted hatred that the Navy has not attracted in the past hundreds of years. CP's hatred for the Navy is no longer the usual necessary opposition, but has become a real hatred.
Not to mention that Skyler attacked the Celestial Dragons in Mariejoia, killed the CP, and made the commander of the guard army work like slaves. There is no doubt that this is the result of the "connivance" of the Warring States Period.
At least from the perspective of the Tianlong people, CP and escorts, this is the case.
It can be said that Sengoku has offended these people to death. Now that Sengoku is in the navy and only cares about the navy, these "enemies" can barely accept it.
If he was really asked to serve as the commander-in-chief of the entire army, no one in Marigio would agree to it, and the Five Old Stars couldn't bear to see Warring States' obedience for so many years, so it was naturally impossible for them to help Warring States clear these obstacles.
However, if Warring States cannot serve as the commander-in-chief of the entire army, the arrangements after he steps down as marshal will become very difficult. After all, Warring States' contribution is too great.
From the time he submitted his resignation to the time he actually stepped down, it was estimated that it would still take half a year to a year. In such a short time, it was not easy to find a position that could allow Warring States to provide for his retirement.
It would be easier if Sengoku's contribution was not so great. Just give him the identity of Navy Chief Inspector, equip him with a detachment, and let him go on vacation all over the world.
But no, a well-known retirement position like the Great Inspector is not suitable for Warring States, even if Warring States himself is probably happy to accept this position for his own retirement.
But it is impossible for the Five Old Stars to arrange this. After all, the so-called Navy Inspector is just one of the positions held concurrently by Vice Admiral Skyler. Is he so worthy of the status and merits of the Warring States Period?
Finally, the curly-haired old star said: "The war has not ended yet, let Warring States continue to serve as marshal. Let's talk about resigning after this war is over."
Hearing the curly-haired old star speak, the other five old stars also nodded, and at the same time glanced in the direction of the cp with dissatisfaction, which made several cps have an inexplicable feeling.
This matter originally had nothing to do with cp, but when cp mentioned that he wanted to hold accountable the things he did not do well in this war, Warring States' resignation letter was handed over inexplicably.
Although CP said these words or not, the resignation letter from the Warring States Period would come as promised, but... Wulao Xing had to divert his anger, right?Sora made it clear that he didn't care about these things, so getting angry with him was of no use.
It just so happens that the cp is here again and has chosen to be the one who takes the lead, so I'll go to the trouble of being the one who takes the blame again.
The feedback from the Five Old Stars was quickly sent back to Marinefando. Warring States, who was finishing the post-war meeting, was not surprised after receiving Marie Joa's reply. This was within his expectation.
When Kong resigned as the Navy Marshal, he took over as the Navy Marshal, which was delayed for several years. Although the World Government's work efficiency has become much more efficient in the past few years, it is obviously impossible to expect too much from their efficiency.
“Tuk Tuk Tuk~”
There was a knock on the office door. Zeng Guo nodded towards the door. His door was still not closed. After all, many people would probably come to see him today.
The first person to arrive was He, which was also expected by Warring States. After He walked in and saw the reports scattered on the table, she blinked and asked:
"Choose to retire? But it shouldn't go so smoothly, right?"
"Yeah, I guess I don't know how to arrange my whereabouts. Come see me, what's the matter?"
Warring States nodded. He had not told He about this, but he knew that with He's ability, it was impossible not to see what he was thinking, so there was no need to explain.
He didn't ask any more questions, but pulled up a chair and sat down and said, "Now everyone is waiting for our navy to enter the new world, but you avoided this issue in the meeting. Is there any consideration?"
Hearing this, Warring States nodded and said: "Actually, you also know that our navy also needs to be repaired. Each detachment must replenish its personnel before it can enter the new world..."
"Tell me the truth, is that okay?"
He directly interrupted Sengoku, and then looked at Sengoku. Sengoku took off his glasses, rubbed his eyelids, put them back on, and said, "Skyler seems to understand me better than you."
"It's a funeral, right? Do you want to wait until Whitebeard's funeral is over before entering the new world?"
In fact, He himself had guessed it. After all, the Warring States Period arranged such a big war. The biggest purpose was to send his old enemy away. Since he chose to send him away, it was natural that he would have to wait until he was settled in peace.
Jianhe actually knew this, and Sengoku nodded and said, "In a few days, I will take two to three days off due to injury. There is no need to tell anyone about this."
"You didn't even participate in the battle. Isn't this a little too blatant?"
He said with a smile, and Zeng Guo also smiled, nodded, and said, "I'm all about to retire, so what can I do if I act willfully once?"
Sengoku was obviously in a good mood, and since he and He had been friends for so many years, he still didn't care about this bit of teasing.
However, this smile did not last long. Sengoku soon became serious again. He looked at He and asked, "Is Skyler okay? She didn't even come to the post-war meeting. Did she..."
Seeing Sengoku's serious and worried look, He shook his head and said, "At first I thought something had happened, but based on what I just asked..."
Having said this, He paused, and Sengoku looked a little strange at this time. He was very happy to know that Skyler's mental state or physical health was fine, but...since he was fine, not coming to the meeting would be a bit excessive. Got it!
And this time Nurkic was not even asked to come over for a meeting!Forget it if you don't come, just send an adjutant to do it perfunctory... It's fine if you mean it!What is it that makes Skyler refuse to do what he means?
He whetted Sengoku's appetite before saying, "After the red-haired and white-bearded pirates left, she organized a dinner party to celebrate."
Hearing this, the veins on Seng Guo's forehead were revealed. It was really... expected!However, Warring States' frown did not relax, but he asked:
"But all the generals who can still attend the meeting are here today. Even the two old guys Garp and Zefa are here for the meeting. I was not invited. Who did she ask for a dinner date?"
Hearing that Warring States had been laying the groundwork for so long, just to say that Skyler did not invite him to a dinner party, He smiled and shook his head and said: "I have not received an invitation, or in other words, all the naval admirals have not received an invitation. "
Hearing what He said, Sengoku became even more confused. After all... without the participation of the admiral, it would most likely be Zhan Ye detachment's own dinner party. In that case, it couldn't be called a dinner party.
But this time He didn't mean to whet Sengoku's appetite, but quickly said: "She invited the Shichibukai. Except for Haku who left first, everyone else was invited by him."
Hearing that Skyler's invitation was actually Shichibukai, Sengoku looked strange because he had never thought of this answer, and he couldn't imagine the necessity of Skyler having dinner with Shichibukai.
He rubbed his brows and said, "You can ask her again when she comes back."
"I don't think I need to ask, because I have probably guessed the reason why she wanted to have dinner with these people."
He shook his head. After hearing this, Sengoku looked at He with questioning eyes. He continued: "I feel that Skyler's biggest purpose is actually to have an interview with Katakuri about the division of sea areas in the New World.
After all, after we enter the new world and take over Whitebeard's sea area, we will inevitably have contact with Totland, and it is very important to clearly define the scope of the sea area.
Secondly... it should be the problem of Bartholomew Bear. Kizaru said before that a lot of scientific experiments have been carried out on the bear, and it seems that... his life is coming to an end.
But it's really strange. He is still so young. Maybe he has something to explain to Skyler. After all, his daughter...
The second issue should be the issue between Hancock and Mihawk. According to Lao Shen, Hancock has not "challenged" Skyler this year. Maybe Skyler is in a hurry and wants to deal with it together.
Mihawk is similar. To be honest, I can't understand Skyler's strength and swordsmanship now. Maybe he is the only one left in the world who can communicate with her.
As for Cavendish, maybe he was just in passing?After all, there were only five Shichibukai present. If she invited four of them and left only Cavendish, it would definitely not look good. She has also reached the age where she understands the world. "
After hearing He's conjecture, Sengoku nodded, especially regarding Skyler's strength and swordsmanship. He also agreed very much, because he couldn't understand Skylar's strength and swordsmanship either.
The sword that finally killed Whitebeard was so gorgeous that even he was caught by the brilliance and could not see the full extent of the swordsmanship.
Of course, Warring States was very opposed to He's last words. Skyler didn't understand the so-called worldliness at all, otherwise it would have been impossible not to attend the post-war meeting. This was a completely disrespectful act to him as a marshal!
In fact, Skyler's purpose of organizing this game was similar to what He had guessed, but there was one thing He made wrong, that is, Cavendish was not the one to "make up the numbers", on the contrary... he was the protagonist.
At this time, there was indeed a banquet on the warship of the Zhanye detachment. Laian took out the meat that had been slow-roasted and stewed before the war started. After nearly six hours of slow-roasting and slow-stewing, these The food is beyond delicious.
Leon brought a plate of stew to the table where Skyler and others were sitting. Florence took out a bottle of sleeping pills from her medicine box, then crushed it into powder and sprinkled it on the stew. .
A large piece of stew, covered in sleeping pills, Schuyler pushed the plate towards Cavendish and said, "Here, eat."
Cavendish looked a little pale at this time as he looked at this plate of special stew. With so many sleeping pills, a dinosaur would be immediately fascinated, right?
If I eat it, will I still have a chance to wake up?
"S...Lieutenant General Skyler, given another chance, I...I don't want to eat it!"
Cavendish looked at Skyler and said in a pleading tone. Skyler frowned and said: "I just let you fall asleep. You said you couldn't sleep. Now you don't take the sleeping pills. You It’s very difficult for me to handle.”
"Don't stare at me, I can fall asleep."
Before today, Cavendish was very resistant to sleeping, because as soon as he slept, the devil in his body would wake up, take control of his body, and do things he didn't want to do.
But today, or now, he desperately hoped that he could fall asleep and let the devil out of his body. Although he didn't know what these people wanted to do, but... he didn't want to accept it soberly.
Cavendish was actually very confused as to why he came here. After the war, he waited for Katakuri to take him back. After all, he was brought here by Katakuri, so he should Carry it back by Katakuri.
But after the war, the skeleton navy talked to Katakuri and Mihawk about something, and he was taken aboard the warship.
After arriving on the warship, the first request made by the navy was to let himself... "sleep"!
One thing Cavendish thinks he can praise the Navy for is that the Navy has prepared a quite comfortable beach lounge chair for him. Lying on the lounge chair is more comfortable than an ordinary bed.
He didn't resist falling asleep on such a chair. The problem was...when he lay down on the beach chair, these elders gathered around him, staring at him, waiting for him to fall asleep.
It's impossible for anyone to fall asleep with this feeling!It’s so weird!
Then, because he couldn't sleep, he was inexplicably judged by the group of elders as being uncooperative. Just as everyone else had arranged things for the banquet, everyone started eating meat and drinking wine.
But he was restrained, and Lieutenant General Skyler told him that he had a special meal and asked him to wait at the table.
Although Cavendish guessed from Skyler's words that they might drug him, but... you finished the drug in the kitchen, brought it to yourself, and let yourself take it without knowing it. How good is it? !
Why did you deliberately get it in front of yourself and then administer that lethal amount of sleeping pills in front of yourself? !
Isn’t it okay to even pretend and deceive yourself?Do you have to die clearly? !
But at this time, no one believed that he could sleep by relying on himself, and the group of elders who were watching him all used their eyes to signal him to eat quickly.
The most silent but unexpectedly gentle bear handed him a fork. Cavendish's face twitched, but he had no choice but to accept the fork handed to him by the bear.
The meat has been stewed so tender that even with a fork, the meat can be broken into small pieces. Cavendish forked one of the pieces and rolled it back and forth in the meat sauce on the plate.
It seemed that he wanted to wash off some sleeping pills, but the effect was not good because the meat sauce was a bit sticky. Not only did the medicine powder not wash off, it even made the medicine powder wrap more firmly on the meat.
Cavendish's face became even paler, but under the watch of all the elders, he still chose to swallow the piece and then stopped moving.
He felt that the sleeping pill on the small piece of barbecue he had just eaten was enough for him to sleep for two days and two nights, and there was no need to take any more.
Seeing him stop, Skyler became a little dissatisfied, but he didn't say anything and continued to look at him.
After more than ten minutes, perhaps because the medicine began to take effect, Cavendish's upper and lower eyelids began to twitch slightly, and his eyes narrowed smaller and smaller, and finally closed them directly.
And his temperament gradually changed, and his right hand was already on the sword without knowing when.
The next moment, Cavendish grinned and opened his eyes instantly, looking extremely arrogant. His eyes turned white and were exposed in front of everyone.
But just when he was about to draw his sword, he saw Katakuri with his legs crossed and holding a glass of milk beer. His momentum suddenly dropped. Then he saw Skyler wiping his hands with a hot and wet towel. His momentum dropped. Bruised again.
Those white eyes gradually changed. From pure white, they began to have a little outline. Circles appeared layer by layer at the position of his eyes, and little bits of gold and blue were also jumping inside the circles.
This soul of his seems to want to leave. He wants to wake up Cavendish's main soul, but... that soul is sleeping soundly!
"Brooke, thank you for your hard work."
Skyler looked at Brooke, who was also holding a milk beer. Hearing this, Brooke nodded and let out a heart-wrenching laugh.
"Yo ho ho ho ~ yo ho ho ho ~"
As the commander-in-chief of the entire army, Sora had the right to appoint or remove the navy marshal, but after Sengoku revealed his intention to resign after this war, Sora directly threw the blame away.
Because if he were to take charge of this matter and agree to Warring States' resignation, then Wu Laoxing would definitely ask questions or even hold him accountable. After all, Warring States had made great contributions.
A naval marshal who has made great achievements, but loses his position as marshal shortly after making great achievements, will probably cause a lot of controversy, and as long as public opinion is consistent, Sora will take the blame.
And leaving this matter to Wulaoxing to handle, although it is inevitable that there will still be some bad publicity, but there is no need to take the blame himself, and Sora doesn't want to deal with this matter.
But it was impossible for him to tell Wu Laoxing openly: "Hey, seniors, I know that Warring States is about to resign. I let you handle it, just to make you take the blame."
If he dared to say that, I'm afraid Wulaoxing would annoy him to death and ask him to keep Warring States.
Therefore, even if Kong felt that Wu Laoxing would eventually guess the truth of this matter, he felt that he could not tell it personally. After all, as long as there is no evidence, all suspicions are just suspicions.
When Wu Laoxing saw Kong's reaction, he probably guessed something, but since everyone wanted to save face, it was naturally impossible to explain it too clearly.
Naosu Laoshi touched his beard at this time, looked at Sora, and said in a somewhat troubled tone: "Sengoku has indeed reached the age of retirement, but who will be the successor? And how to arrange Sengoku's positions after he retires? "
Hearing this, Sora finally stopped looking at the sky and looked at Old Man Naosu, saying: "Well... let the navy handle the matter to the navy itself, but for the latter, I do have a suggestion."
"Tell me."
Naosu Laoxing nodded and looked at Sora. He had already guessed that Sora had known about this for a long time. Therefore, it was very reasonable for Sora to make some plans in advance.
After seeing Naosu Laoxing's eyes, Sora suddenly smiled and said: "Commander of the entire army..."
"no!"

Hearing that Warring States had been laying the groundwork for so long, just to say that Skyler did not invite him to a dinner party, He smiled and shook his head and said: "I have not received an invitation, or in other words, all the naval admirals have not received an invitation. "
Hearing what He said, Sengoku became even more confused. After all... without the participation of the admiral, it would most likely be Zhan Ye detachment's own dinner party. In that case, it couldn't be called a dinner party.
But this time He didn't mean to whet Sengoku's appetite, but quickly said: "She invited the Shichibukai. Except for Haku who left first, everyone else was invited by him."
Hearing that Skyler's invitation was actually Shichibukai, Sengoku looked strange because he had never thought of this answer, and he couldn't imagine the necessity of Skyler having dinner with Shichibukai.
He rubbed his brows and said, "You can ask her again when she comes back."
"I don't think I need to ask, because I have probably guessed the reason why she wanted to have dinner with these people."
He shook his head. After hearing this, Sengoku looked at He with questioning eyes. He continued: "I feel that Skyler's biggest purpose is actually to have an interview with Katakuri about the division of sea areas in the New World.
After all, after we enter the new world and take over Whitebeard's sea area, we will inevitably have contact with Totland, and it is very important to clearly define the scope of the sea area.
Secondly... it should be the problem of Bartholomew Bear. Kizaru said before that a lot of scientific experiments have been carried out on the bear, and it seems that... his life is coming to an end.
But it's really strange. He is still so young. Maybe he has something to explain to Skyler. After all, his daughter...
The second issue should be the issue between Hancock and Mihawk. According to Lao Shen, Hancock has not "challenged" Skyler this year. Maybe Skyler is in a hurry and wants to deal with it together.
Mihawk is similar. To be honest, I can't understand Skyler's strength and swordsmanship now. Maybe he is the only one left in the world who can communicate with her.
As for Cavendish, maybe he was just in passing?After all, there were only five Shichibukai present. If she invited four of them and left only Cavendish, it would definitely not look good. She has also reached the age where she understands the world. "
After hearing He's conjecture, Sengoku nodded, especially regarding Skyler's strength and swordsmanship. He also agreed very much, because he couldn't understand Skylar's strength and swordsmanship either.
The sword that finally killed Whitebeard was so gorgeous that even he was caught by the brilliance and could not see the full extent of the swordsmanship.
Of course, Warring States was very opposed to He's last words. Skyler didn't understand the so-called worldliness at all, otherwise it would have been impossible not to attend the post-war meeting. This was a completely disrespectful act to him as a marshal!
In fact, Skyler's purpose of organizing this game was similar to what He had guessed, but there was one thing He made wrong, that is, Cavendish was not the one to "make up the numbers", on the contrary... he was the protagonist.
At this time, there was indeed a banquet on the warship of the Zhanye detachment. Laian took out the meat that had been slow-roasted and stewed before the war started. After nearly six hours of slow-roasting and slow-stewing, these The food is beyond delicious.
Leon brought a plate of stew to the table where Skyler and others were sitting. Florence took out a bottle of sleeping pills from her medicine box, then crushed it into powder and sprinkled it on the stew. .
A large piece of stew, covered in sleeping pills, Schuyler pushed the plate towards Cavendish and said, "Here, eat."
Cavendish looked a little pale at this time as he looked at this plate of special stew. With so many sleeping pills, a dinosaur would be immediately fascinated, right?
If I eat it, will I still have a chance to wake up?
"S...Lieutenant General Skyler, given another chance, I...I don't want to eat it!"
Cavendish looked at Skyler and said in a pleading tone. Skyler frowned and said: "I just let you fall asleep. You said you couldn't sleep. Now you don't take the sleeping pills. You It’s very difficult for me to handle.”
"Don't stare at me, I can fall asleep."
Before today, Cavendish was very resistant to sleeping, because as soon as he slept, the devil in his body would wake up, take control of his body, and do things he didn't want to do.
But today, or now, he desperately hoped that he could fall asleep and let the devil out of his body. Although he didn't know what these people wanted to do, but... he didn't want to accept it soberly.
Cavendish was actually very confused as to why he came here. After the war, he waited for Katakuri to take him back. After all, he was brought here by Katakuri, so he should Carry it back by Katakuri.
But after the war, the skeleton navy talked to Katakuri and Mihawk about something, and he was taken aboard the warship.
After arriving on the warship, the first request made by the navy was to let himself... "sleep"!
One thing Cavendish thinks he can praise the Navy for is that the Navy has prepared a quite comfortable beach lounge chair for him. Lying on the lounge chair is more comfortable than an ordinary bed.
He didn't resist falling asleep on such a chair. The problem was...when he lay down on the beach chair, these elders gathered around him, staring at him, waiting for him to fall asleep.
It's impossible for anyone to fall asleep with this feeling!It’s so weird!
Then, because he couldn't sleep, he was inexplicably judged by the group of elders as being uncooperative. Just as everyone else had arranged things for the banquet, everyone started eating meat and drinking wine.
But he was restrained, and Lieutenant General Skyler told him that he had a special meal and asked him to wait at the table.
Although Cavendish guessed from Skyler's words that they might drug him, but... you finished the drug in the kitchen, brought it to yourself, and let yourself take it without knowing it. How good is it? !
Why did you deliberately get it in front of yourself and then administer that lethal amount of sleeping pills in front of yourself? !
Isn’t it okay to even pretend and deceive yourself?Do you have to die clearly? !
But at this time, no one believed that he could sleep by relying on himself, and the group of elders who were watching him all used their eyes to signal him to eat quickly.
The most silent but unexpectedly gentle bear handed him a fork. Cavendish's face twitched, but he had no choice but to accept the fork handed to him by the bear.
The meat has been stewed so tender that even with a fork, the meat can be broken into small pieces. Cavendish forked one of the pieces and rolled it back and forth in the meat sauce on the plate.
It seemed that he wanted to wash off some sleeping pills, but the effect was not good because the meat sauce was a bit sticky. Not only did the medicine powder not wash off, it even made the medicine powder wrap more firmly on the meat.
Cavendish's face became even paler, but under the watch of all the elders, he still chose to swallow the piece and then stopped moving.
He felt that the sleeping pill on the small piece of barbecue he had just eaten was enough for him to sleep for two days and two nights, and there was no need to take any more.
Seeing him stop, Skyler became a little dissatisfied, but he didn't say anything and continued to look at him.
After more than ten minutes, perhaps because the medicine began to take effect, Cavendish's upper and lower eyelids began to twitch slightly, and his eyes narrowed smaller and smaller, and finally closed them directly.
And his temperament gradually changed, and his right hand was already on the sword without knowing when.
The next moment, Cavendish grinned and opened his eyes instantly, looking extremely arrogant. His eyes turned white and were exposed in front of everyone.
But just when he was about to draw his sword, he saw Katakuri with his legs crossed and holding a glass of milk beer. His momentum suddenly dropped. Then he saw Skyler wiping his hands with a hot and wet towel. His momentum dropped. Bruised again.
Those white eyes gradually changed. From pure white, they began to have a little outline. Circles appeared layer by layer at the position of his eyes, and little bits of gold and blue were also jumping inside the circles.
This soul of his seems to want to leave. He wants to wake up Cavendish's main soul, but... that soul is sleeping soundly!
"Brooke, thank you for your hard work."
Skyler looked at Brooke, who was also holding a milk beer. Hearing this, Brooke nodded and let out a heart-wrenching laugh.
"Yo ho ho ho ~ yo ho ho ho ~"
