One day later.

The first half of the Grand Line, the Navy Headquarters, Marinford.

The warship docked.

"This is... Commodore Kaji's warship!!"

"Salute!"

As the messenger shouted, all the patrolling navy soldiers on the huge oval naval port stopped their actions and saluted together.

The bordering board fell.

Kaji walked down from the warship with his hands in his pockets, looking at the rows of navy soldiers waiting in anticipation on the naval port, and made a gesture of a leader inspecting, waving and smiling modestly:

"This is too grand, I just went to the New World to collect intelligence... Eh?"

His smile suddenly froze there.

Because a team of elite navy soldiers with a hurried look passed by him directly and walked towards Darren who walked slowly down the deck.

"Vice Admiral Darren! You are finally back!"

"Marshal Kong Ganggu and Admiral Zhan Guo... and a group of high-ranking naval officers are already waiting in the conference room."

The leading brigadier saluted Darren solemnly and said in a deep voice.

Darren smiled and said softly: "Sorry for the long wait. Please lead the way."

"——Salute!!"

At this time, the loud voice of the messenger was heard again.

All the naval soldiers present raised their hands to salute again.

But it was obvious that the target of their salute this time was not Kaji, but Darren.

Kaji: ...

The corner of his eye twitched, and he suddenly took a step forward and walked to the brigadier general, pointing at his face, and laughed:

"What about me? What about me? General Sengoku and the others have been waiting for me for a long time, right?"

"It's okay, I don't need you to lead the way. I go to the Marshal's Mansion often, and I'm very familiar with the road."

The brigadier general glanced at him, and his tone suddenly became ritualistic and indifferent, and he said lightly:

"I'm sorry, Brigadier General Kaji, the scale of this military meeting is that generals with the rank of major general and above in the headquarters will attend... You don't need to attend this meeting."

Kaji: ...

"Damn it! I'm a naval brigadier general after all!"

He shouted angrily.

The brigadier general paused.

"Who isn't?"

Kaji: ...

"Ahhhhhhh!!! Damn it!!!"

Marshal's Mansion

Led by the commodore, Darren felt a solemn and murderous atmosphere as soon as he stepped into the military conference room.

On the exaggerated oval conference table, dozens of officers of the Navy Headquarters with the rank of major general or above were present, staring at the simulated sand table in front of them with a solemn look.

The moment the door of the conference room opened, the eyes of dozens of generals were cast at the same time, giving people an indescribable weight.

However, Darren was calm and composed, with a relaxed smile on his face:

"Wow, so lively."

The serious-looking Kong Kong frowned.

The corners of the mouth of the Crane Staff twitched.

Zhan Guo covered his face in pain.

Everyone:...

"Hurry up and take a seat, Vice Admiral Darren... We are all waiting for you."

Kong Kong said in a deep voice.

"Yes, Marshal Kong." Darren responded and glanced at the empty seats.

"Hey, Darren!! This way!! I've saved a seat for you!!"

Kuzan, who was sitting in the corner, stood up excitedly, waved to Darren, and pointed to the seat next to him.

"This seat is good! It's convenient for you to smoke!"

Everyone: ...

Zhan Guo pressed his heart with his hand.

Darren smiled and said, "Okay."

"No, Vice Admiral Darren, you sit next to me. Your opinion is very important in this meeting."

At this time, Kong Kong suddenly spoke.

Darren was startled and agreed happily.

He walked to the right of Kong Kong and sat down in the empty seat.

'This was originally the seat for Mr. Zefa...'

Darren observed the round table of the meeting and quickly came to this conclusion.

Kong Kong, as the Admiral of the Navy, sat in the main seat.

On his left was the Admiral of the Navy Headquarters, Sen Guo, and then a series of Vice Admirals of the Headquarters in the battle sequence, such as Sakaski and Borsalino.

On the right side of Marshal Kong, the former admiral Zephyr should have been seated, followed by Vice Admiral Tsuru and other staff, civilian staff, and "idle people" like Garp who were just passing the time.

So in this way, Darren sat directly between Steel Bone Kong and Tsuru.

However, as soon as he sat down, Darren suddenly felt a cold chill emanating from his side.

"Darren, I heard that you had a lot of fun in the past few days in the Happy Street?"

Darren was startled, turned his head and saw the cold eyes of the staff officer Tsuru who was interrogating a prisoner.

"Ahem..."

Darren coughed twice, and a hint of embarrassment flashed across his face.

How did his story in the Happy Street spread out! ?Damn it!

Did that bastard Kaji betray me?

Fortunately, Gion is only a brigadier general of the headquarters and is not qualified to attend this meeting...

Just as he was thinking about how to fool around, Kong Kong tapped the table with his thick knuckles and directly opened the meeting agenda.

"Then, all the people in this meeting have attended."

He raised his head, looked at everyone present with a cold look, and said in a deep voice:

"All the contents of this meeting will be included in the highest level of military secrets of the headquarters. Anyone who leaks it will be severely dealt with!"

"Yes, Marshal Kong!" Everyone present said loudly at the same time.

"Very good, then..." Kong Kong looked at Sengoku and signaled with his eyes: "Sengoku, let's start."

Sengoku nodded, stood up from his seat, and waved his hand.

With a swish, the video Den Den Mushi that had been prepared long ago immediately projected a series of thrilling pictures on the giant screen of the conference room.

Towns were reduced to ashes, islands were destroyed, countless refugees were displaced, and corpses were scattered in the ruins...

The sad and solemn voice of Sengoku slowly sounded:

"A few days ago, the legendary pirate Shiki the Golden Lion reappeared on the sea."

"He has successfully rebuilt a flying fleet of tens of thousands of people, with at least thirty pirate ships under his command, and carried out large-scale destruction and massacres in some countries and islands in the New World."

"Attack, destroy, kill... Golden Lion led his Flying Pirates to launch crazy actions."

"But after investigation, we found a very strange phenomenon-most of these attacked islands and towns are not wealthy places, and the most important point is that the Flying Pirates did not plunder any wealth and resources in these places."

"This also means that the purpose of Golden Lion's series of actions is not looting."

As soon as these words came out, the faces of the generals present changed slightly.

The essence of pirates is plunder.

If a large-scale pirate group attacks towns and islands without carrying out large-scale looting, it can only mean that what they are pursuing is far more valuable than gold and silver treasures!
