Chapter 47 Drinking under the Starry Night

It is still the headquarters of the Flying Pirates.

Ant Island, attic in the backyard of the palace.

Lex is gathering intelligence in Marinford, and will then go to Marijoa to give the Five Elders a big treat to celebrate the successful completion of the 1489th year of the Sea Circle Calendar.

So since Lex is not here, it is natural that the 'Dream Maker' Roy will preside over the final pre-war meeting!

Everyone, including the older generation of pirates such as Golden Lion, Red Earl, Silver Axe, Wang Zhi, Rhine and others, had no objection. Logically, Agulas Gut also had the ability to do so, but this was an alliance of multiple major forces, and the leader of one of the major forces must be the host.

And Lex's second brother, Roy, is the perfect choice.

"Everyone, there are still four hours before we raid Mary Joa. I don't want anyone to leave this attic during these four hours!"

Roy's tone was very light, but his words were extremely strong!

This is also consistent with Roy's consistent character.

"From now on, you are only allowed to enter this attic, not leave. I hope you understand."

Even though they were all his own people, Roy didn't want anything to go wrong. There couldn't be any mistakes in Lex's sailing ceremony!

"I understand."

The Red Earl was the first to speak.

Then, everyone expressed their understanding. After all, it was the first time they joined together, although they were connected with Lex as the center.

But normally they are all big pirates working in their own camps.

"Hahahaha, Roy, you did a great job!"

"Buhahahaha, I won't leave until Lex comes back."

"Me too." Wang Zhi said.

Roy said as he picked up another Den Den Mushi.

"Moshimoshi, Captain Whitebeard, I'm Roy."

"What's going on? Are we going to start?"

On the other end of the phone, Whitebeard seemed to be busy with something. He was the only one to leave after the party on Ant Island a few days ago.

"How is the ship's coating? Can it be sailed to Marinford at any time?"

Roy asked.

"These past few days, I asked the prince of Fishman Island, the Great Knight of the Sea, Neptune, to secretly complete the coating of a large number of ships. They can sail from the bottom of the sea to Marinford at any time to start the war!"

"Well, please trouble Captain Whitebeard!"

"Kulala, little thing, is Lex back?"

"He should be gathering intelligence in Marinford at the moment, and will go to Marijoa in person later. When Lex comes back, he will declare the war officially open!"

"Kulalala, the blood is boiling like never before after the Valley of the Gods. The standard of the war seems to be even higher."

"Well, yes, it's about to start."

There was a dangerous light flashing in Roy's eyes, and everyone in the attic also had murderous looks in their eyes. These were the most brutal pirates on the sea!

............

Marinford, night, Gion's room.

Bed.

"Aren't you here to gather intelligence? Huh?"

Zhiyuan lay on Lex's body at an angle, drawing circles on Lex's chest with his tender white fingers, and teased.

"Having in-depth communication with you, a naval captain, is also a form of spying."

"Oh~ Do you want to seduce me? This kind of power-for-sex transaction, humph, I'll fall for it, come again!"

Zhiyuan stood up and rode on Lex, with her breasts exposed and surging.

"Okay, this is the last time. We have to go to Marijoa soon."

Lex smiled, without any pretense, and turned over with force to press the delicate figure under him.

...........

It was the night of Marijoa, the sky was full of stars, the holy land was spotless, and under the watering of the stars, it looked even more sacred and extraordinary.

This time it was no longer a matter of power. The Five Elders came to a pavilion in Pangu City. Opposite them sat a blond young man with two long swords on his waist, but his face was gentle and elegant.

"1489 is almost over."

Lex sighed.

"Yes, time flies and the times are slowly changing." Mercury continued.

Then, Jupiter asked.

"What's the matter, Lex? Are you going back to the Holy Land for the New Year's Eve ceremony of 1490? You can bring Gion with you. The Holy Land will welcome you both."

It has to be said that Jupiter still very much hopes that Lex will be close to the Holy Land. The words he used were to let Lex "return" to the Holy Land, and the subtext was that Marijoa was Lex's home.

"Maybe."

Lex gave an ambiguous answer, but of course, in a few hours, the Five Elders would know what it meant.

However, Lex took a sip of the herbal tea. Drinking under the starry night was quite interesting, so the Five Elders were in a good mood at this time.

"Do you guys still remember something?"

Lex put down the exquisite teacup in his hand and asked meaningfully.

"? Which one do you mean?"

Mars asked with a frown, he had a bad feeling.

Venus glanced sideways and looked deeply at Lex. He and Lex had the best personal relationship among the few people. He knew what Lex wanted to say in an instant, but he didn't want to mention it, so he continued to watch.

"About a woman named Izambaron V. Anastasia."

Lex's eyes were burning as he spoke word by word.

Venus Izambaron V. Nasujuro's eyes moved slightly, but he said nothing and continued to watch coldly.

Jupiter and Mars had extremely ugly expressions on their faces. The woman that Lex was talking about was the biggest conflict between the Holy Land and Lex!

Irreconcilable contradiction!

The reason why Lex almost never returns to the Holy Land is because of this woman!

Q: If someone executed their mother, would you live in peace with them?

Lex's answer is no!

"You have to know, Lex, we did make some mistakes back then, but haven't we been trying to make it up to you all these years? In the past few years, Shiki has been developing smoothly in the New World, and the Navy has almost never had a conflict with the Sky Pirates. Including your last proposal to remove all the spies from the Sky Pirates, didn't we agree? Your mother played a very important role in this. We even broke the iron rule and made an exception to let your woman become a Celestial Dragon. What does this mean? Don't you know?!"

Mercury opened his mouth slowly and explained earnestly to Lex.

Mars, who usually has a hot temper, softened his tone at this moment.

"Lex, the Holy Land really wants you to return. The descendants of God need you."

But Lex slowly shook his head and looked directly at Mercury.

"What if I insist on killing the people who participated in my mother's death? Will you agree?"

".......Mus, the deputy leader of the Knights of God, cannot do that. He is the descendant of God and the second-in-command of the Knights of God. The others can be left to you."

Mercury gave in!

"Including Zero?"

Lex whispered a name, which was also a code name, but the five people frowned deeply, because Zero's existence was very secretive and most Celestial Dragons didn't know about it.

"How do you know about Zero's existence?"

"He was the one who captured my mother back then, right? Was it Moose who did it? If you can't even hand over these two people, then you don't have sincerity. I understand."

Lex said quietly.

"Let the past be the past. We should look to the future. Now, as long as you return——"

Mercury tried to change the subject.

"No need to say more, goodbye, everyone."

Lex drank the herbal tea in his cup and stood up to say goodbye.

Lex was about to leave, and before leaving, Jupiter suddenly asked.

"The New World pirates are planning to attack the Marine branch. Does it have anything to do with you?"

"Hmm, who knows."

Lex disappears.
