Pirates: Admiral Silver Falcon is also very irritable today

In the world of One Piece, the navy is definitely the fastest and has the most free routes.

The doldrums that pirates avoid like snakes and scorpions are the navy's backyard.

Take a stroll when you have nothing to do.

After becoming a navy, Michael has not actually returned to Marinford many times.

Basically, he only comes once when he is promoted.

But every time he is still shocked by the navy headquarters in Marinford.

The fleet is like a forest and the buildings are tall.

And there is a seagull flag flying at the top!

Stella stood next to Michael, with shock and excitement flashing in her green eyes.

After landing, she stretched her slender neck and kept looking around.

"Michael, is this the legendary navy headquarters?"

"Otherwise? Where else have you seen so many warships?"

It has been three days since the rescue of the slaves.

Stella also began to get familiar with Michael.

She spoke more freely.

"Where are we going next?"

"I'm going to report to the old man... Admiral Zhan Guo."

"Then... should I wait for you on the ship?"

"That's not necessary. You can go with me to see the world."

Michael shrugged.

The conscription period has passed.

If you want to recruit Stella to the Navy Headquarters, you really need the old man's approval.

...

Marinford, Zhan Guo's office.

Although Zhan Guo, who is in the 1500th year of the Sea Circle Calendar, has not yet been promoted to marshal, he has actually been working as a marshal for many years.

At this moment, Zhan Guo is reading a report on the physical condition of Gol D. Roger.

A soldier came in and reported:

"Report to the general, Lieutenant Colonel Michael is back."

"Really? Let him in."

"Yes!"

After a while, Michael walked into the office with Stella.

She sat down on the sofa naturally, without making a sound to disturb Zhan Guo.

After Zhan Guo put down the report in his hand, he looked up.

Only then did he realize that there was a beautiful girl sitting next to Michael.

The girl sat calmly, and she was not at all restrained in the office of the admiral of the navy.

The emerald eyes were staring at him curiously.

"Michael, Taotu has told me the whole story." Zhan Guo looked at Michael, who was not showing off, "Why don't you pretend this time?"

"... I'm just slacking off, and I always get tired of it."

Michael pulled the corner of his mouth. The old man really had time to spare, and he deliberately squeezed him a few words.

Isn't it just that he slacked off a little too much on weekdays!

"I support killing the slave traders." Zhan Guo looked at Michael and sighed, "The Celestial Dragons did ask for you to be punished... although Marshal Kong and I blocked them."

"Hmph, it's better if these dirty pigs don't mess with me."

"Okay, let's stop here about the slave ship." Zhan Guo pointed at Stella who was quietly waiting on the side, "This is..."

"Stella, one of the rescued people, has no fixed place to live because she is a wandering singer." Michael stood up and came to Zhan Guo's desk, "I think she has some talent, old man, can you recruit her into the navy?"

"Special recruitment? No problem." Zhan Guo shrugged, "But you have to lead her yourself. There is no boot camp during the non-recruitment season."

"That's easy."

Michael smiled.

He had already made plans for Stella.

"Old man, there is one more thing. I want to borrow the Navy's Devil Fruit Encyclopedia."

Speaking of which, all the stolen money he seized on the smuggling ship was confiscated.

But the Navy's rule for Devil Fruits is that the seizure is first selected, and the rest is handed over and converted into bonuses.

Although Michael is a time traveler, it is impossible for him to know the appearance of every Devil Fruit.

"Okay."

Zhan Guo had already picked up a piece of paper from the side and stamped it with his seal.

Then handed it to Michael.

As long as you give the stamped paper to the librarian, you can borrow the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia.

"Okay, are you okay? I'll leave if you're not."

"Wait." Seeing that Michael was about to run away, Zhan Guo raised his hand and stopped him, "You and Stella should stay in Marinford for the time being."

Michael frowned.

He was specially recruited by the Navy five years ago. To be precise, he was picked up by Zhan Guo.

As an orphan drifting on the sea, he strayed into the doldrums, experienced many twists and turns, and was finally brought back to the Navy Headquarters by Sengoku.

In this world, it was Sengoku who gave Michael the warmth of home.

This is also the reason why he can call the current Navy's most powerful person "Grandpa".

But in hisAfter becoming Taotu's adjutant, he has never lived at home.

"What happened?"

"The execution date has been set, in ten days."

Sengoku's words did not have a subject, but Michael knew who he was talking about.

Gol D. Roger.

Michael was in a trance.

So soon... is it coming?

The so-called "Great Pirate Era".

"Okay, then I'll live at home these days." Michael nodded, "It just so happens that I haven't seen Rosinante for a long time."

After saying that, he waved to Stella and left Sengoku's office on his own.

"Goodbye, General Sengoku!" Stella saluted awkwardly, and then hurriedly chased after Michael.

Not long after they left, a tall and burly figure walked into Sengoku's office without even saying hello.

He came to Sengoku's desk, reached out and grabbed the senbei and started eating.

"... Garp, can you please not eat my senbei next time?"

Monkey D. Garp, a naval hero, the father of the future leader of the Revolutionary Army, the grandfather of the future Pirate King, and the biggest scoundrel in the entire navy.

"Don't be so stingy, Sengoku-san!"

Garp not only ate the senbei he had snatched in two bites, but also wiped his hands on Sengoku's cloak.

"Has Roger's health... become so bad?" Sengoku looked at the detailed analysis in the report and sighed.

"Otherwise, why do you think he surrendered?" Garp sat down on Sengoku's desk, "It's nothing more than buying some time for his family and his crew to disappear."

"...What are the chances of finding them?"

"Sengoku, it's not a bad thing for them to retire to the countryside." Garp's words went straight to the core of the problem, "Rayleigh, Jabba, have you ever thought about how many navy officers will die if you forcefully attack such a strong man now?"

Garp may be reckless, but he is never stupid: "Rayleigh and Jabba are not the type to stir up trouble. But this Barrett...does need to be paid special attention to."

"There are still ten days before the scheduled execution date, start spreading the news. If the people from Roger's pirate group come to rescue...they will be caught in one fell swoop."

"...Okay."

The two people in the office talked lightly about the execution of the Pirate King, and then there was only silence.

And an era is about to end in this silence.
