Chapter 33 Silver Axe Old Man

"Admiral, the young master just killed John."

Gut held the Den Den Mushi in his hand and reported to the Golden Lion, while Donald Simi was working hard to organize Feld's industrial summary report, which was his biggest job.

"Hmm?! Hahahaha, good job, well done!" The Golden Lion did not hesitate to praise him.

"Haha, Admiral, the young master is going to Silver Axe now. Should we take over John's territory immediately? However, if we do so, the outside world will definitely know that we killed John, which may cause turmoil in the New World."

Agulas Gutt analyzed that right after John died, the Flying Pirates directly took over all of John's inheritance. Even a fool would know who killed John.

What's more serious is that the Flying Pirates suddenly attacked John. Does this imply something? Could it be that the Golden Lion is preparing to expand its power again?

As a result, many forces in the New World will inevitably become uneasy, and may even secretly connect with each other to resist the powerful expansion of the Flying Pirates.

The Flying Pirates will have a hard time and encounter setbacks everywhere in the New World.

If there are too many ants, even the lion will feel troubled.

Did Lex take this into consideration?

It has definitely been taken into consideration.

Does Gut know the reason?

I'm sure you understand the twists and turns involved.

And what is the Golden Lion’s answer?

"Don't worry about it! Just occupy John's territory and clear out all the pirate groups in that area. If you have the guts, tell them to come to Ante Island to find me."

The Golden Lion was sitting in the backyard of the Ant Island Palace, smoking a cigar. Next to him was Lily drinking liquor, and opposite him sat Rhine.

"I will ask Rhine to go there later. Let Rhine handle John's territory first. Gutt, you just need to continue to be in charge of the Totaon Islands. If you need manpower, just ask Lily to transfer it. You don't need to report to me. You are a bunch of scum in the sea. You really think you are the protagonist. There is only one voice in the new world, and that is me!"

Golden Lion took a sip of shochu and arranged the general direction of the Flying Pirates with just a few words.

"Yes, Admiral." Gut hung up the phone and walked towards Ximi who was working diligently.

The two discussed the industries left by Feld and the distribution of related forces. As Feld's confidant during his lifetime, Ximi naturally knew a lot of secrets, and he was telling them to Gut one by one.

...........

Lex traveled through the different space and approached Silver Axe's base.

After the battle of God Valley, Wang Zhi, as a well-known veteran warrior, occupied Rocks' former base, Beehive Island, also known as 'Hatchinos', a famous pirate island.

As Wang Zhi's good friend, Silver Axe also chose an island near Beehive Island as his base camp to control the nearby waters.

The two of them helped each other, using swords and axes respectively, and with the added bonus of being the remnants of Rocks' gang, they were quite famous in the New World.

At this time, in Silver Axe's base, the Mislan Islands, Silver Axe's garrison was bustling with people.

A group of people were having a banquet, toasting each other. A group of pirates were drinking, eating meat, and boasting. It was quite lively.

At the top were two men.

One of them was tall, over five meters tall, and a bit broad, but extremely strong. He was wearing silver armor and his head was covered with a silver helmet, making it difficult to see his expression. Next to him stood a huge silver axe, its edge clearly visible!

That’s right, the Great Pirate Silver Axe!

The other person was wearing a blue cloak with a red background, with long golden hair hanging down and deep blue eyes. He had two long swords slung across his waist and was leaning lazily on a seat.

Exactly, Leon Lex!

"Hey, old man Silver Axe, if I remember correctly, you are almost 60 years old. You were the oldest among the remnants of Lockes. How come you lived so long and believed the nonsense of that idiot Feld?"

Lex took a big gulp of wine and asked Silver Axe beside him with a hint of confusion.

“Buhahahaha, I don’t know either, Buhahahaha!”

Silver Axe took a big gulp of rum through his helmet and answered Lex's question incoherently.

"........You are really optimistic. I originally wanted to come over and have a fight with you, but since you are old, you won't bully the elderly."

Lex didn't get the answer he wanted, but he didn't get angry. He just continued chatting casually.

Hearing this, Silver Axe was not angry, "Buhahahaha, I'm old, I can't beat you, I can't beat you. I wasn't sure I could beat you when I was young, Buhahahaha!"

"Hahahaha, I love to hear that. Even though you are young, you can't beat me."

Lex shamelessly took over Silver Axe's words. He certainly understood that old man Silver Axe was being modest, but when he met such a simple and honest man, Lex liked to show his shameless spirit.

“…Buhahahahaha, keep drinking, keep drinking.”

Silver Axe didn't take it. He just laughed dryly and picked up the huge wine bowl to toast Lex.

"Yeah, hahahaha, I respect you. I respect the old and love the young. I, Lex, am a particular person."

"Buhahahaha!" Silver Axe was very happy.

Happy times always seem to be accelerated and pass by exceptionally quickly.

The banquet ended quietly without anyone noticing.

Silver Axe and Lex sat in a quiet room, drinking some sobering tea. Although it was not necessary given their alcohol tolerance, Silver Axe strongly requested Lex to have some as well, saying it would be good for the body.

"Old man Silver Axe, I won't be polite anymore. I came to you not mainly because Feld contacted you to fight against the Flying Pirates, but because I have another request." Lex spoke directly.

"Well, I agree!"

Silver Axe agreed without even listening to what Lex said. This might be why after Lex learned that John and Silver Axe were connected with Feld, he killed John directly but drank with Silver Axe.

"Let me tell you what it is first, but it won't have much impact on you, old man Silver Axe."

"I will soon launch an all-out war against the World Government. The enemies include the World Government and the entire navy. I will control the intensity of this war so that no top warriors will actually die. The purpose is to intimidate the government and buy the New World a few years of free development. It is also to ensure that some of my plans can proceed smoothly."

Lex told Silver Axe this top secret. Very few people knew about this, but Lex did not hide anything from Silver Axe and told him everything.

"Well, I understand. What do you need me to do?"

Silver Axe digested it slightly and was not surprised at all.

He has experienced several eras, gone to sea, killed navy soldiers, been on the bounty list for many years, been on the run, shocked the world, experienced countless battles, followed Rocks, participated in the Battle of Valley of the Gods, what scene has he not seen?

Isn't it just about attacking the world government?

What's more, it's Lex who's going to fight! He's bound to win. Silver Axe can't imagine how he can lose, because it's Lex.

"Hahaha, old man Silver Axe, you will be responsible for confronting Marinford head-on. At that time, you, Whitebeard, and other helpers will be responsible for delaying the Navy Headquarters. Marijoa is the main battlefield, and I will be in charge there. Uncle and Master will also take action."

"What if we can't control the scale and develop into something like the Valley of the Gods?"

Silver Axe expressed his doubts. He was afraid that this top-level war would turn into a fierce fight between the two sides.

"Don't worry about this, old man Silver Axe. The World Government won't really fight us. As long as we don't touch their bottom line, they won't dare to fight us to the death." Lex was very confident.

"why?"

“Because they are waiting too.”

"wait?"

"Yes, waiting for the so-called great era to come, waiting for what they think is their real enemy." Lex said this with a face full of sarcasm and disdain.

"Buhahaha, isn't that extremely stupid? I think you are their biggest enemy." Silver Axe smiled happily.

"Hmm ha ha ha, who knows."
