Chapter 281: The Eve of the Final Battle at Marineford: Seven Warlords Refusal to Fight

"Come back, Hibari, don't follow him." Akainu organized his daughter to follow Yalu who had an explosive temper.

"But, Yalota..."

"We are the navy! Under the rule of the Celestial Dragons, the offspring of sinners are also sinful. You'd better give up the idea of ​​being with him, Hibari."

Hibari wanted to say something but was interrupted by Akainu.

Yun Que, who had never thought that such a thing would happen, suddenly felt inexplicably disgusted with the Navy's concept of justice and all his previous education.

"I don't!" Yun Que was silent for a moment, and suddenly yelled at Akainu: "Since you knew the final outcome would be like this, why didn't you tell him when she just joined the navy, but now that the situation is irreversible!"

"The Marshal wants to use him to deal with Arthur, and we don't want to let the past happen again. Now that Yaluo knows all the truth, he has to make his own choice." Tianzheng explained to Yunque.

Yun Que suddenly pointed the gun on his back at his chin and looked at Akainu with a firm expression: "Dad, if you try to stop me, I will shoot myself. I like Ya Luo and I will always stand by him!"

Faced with his daughter's threat, Akainu frowned seriously and watched her step by step out of the room until she caught up with Yaluo and followed closely behind.

"Is there anything more painful than having a daughter? Sakaski, even you are no exception?" Tenma said to Akainu.

As the most powerful man in the navy, this cold-blooded soldier, who was once determined to complete his mission in order to wipe out all evil, regardless of the risk of accidental killings, now has relatives who soften his heart.

"Shut up, Tianzheng, it's up to her to make whatever choice she wants. I won't interfere in her emotional issues."

"The World Government is under siege, Sea Knight Jinbei has rebelled, joined the Ice Blade Guild, and is attacking warships from all over the world heading to the Navy Headquarters. We are now truly isolated and helpless."

"How is the recruitment of the remaining Shichibukai going?"

"I don't know. Marshal Zhan Guo is busy with this matter. If they can come, the chances of winning may be better."

"Your information is always faster than that of the headquarters and the CP secret intelligence agency, Tianzheng."

"I am the director of the World Crime Investigation Bureau. This is my specialty, Sakaski. Just like you are ruthless in dealing with evil, everyone has his or her own way of making a living."

……

……

Admiral's Office, Naval Headquarters Building.

Sengoku was at his workstation, using Den Den Mushi to contact the various Shichibukai.

"Hancock, Jinbe betrayed! Then why did the other five people refuse to accept the offer? Do they know the consequences of refusing the offer?" Zhan Guo looked unbearable and yelled while holding the phone.

"Marshal." The voice of the Minister of Intelligence sounded:

"Blackbeard responded to the emergency recall order, saying that he would do his best to respond to this war against pirates."

This news made Zhan Guo feel better and he praised:

"He is a sensible guy. As a newcomer, he is very obedient to the organization's orders."

"But we can't contact him now, Marshal."

This made Zhan Guo startled, then he thought optimistically and said:

"If we can capture Fire Fist Ace, we will have the opportunity to eliminate Whitebeard, our number one enemy. I'm sure he won't do anything. After all, the benefits this time are huge."

"Okay." The head of the intelligence department continued, "There is some bad news about the Seven Warlords of the Sea."

"Another rebellion?" Zhan Guo asked hurriedly.

"No, they refused. Joracol Mihawk was too seriously injured to participate in this war."

"Hawkeye?" Zhan Guo was shocked. "He is recognized by the government as the world's number one swordsman. How could he be seriously injured?"

"According to the news, he challenged the Ice Blade executives and fled in a panic after being seriously injured. In fact, he was almost killed, and was only able to survive because the Ice Blade executives let him go."

"Hawkeye...was almost...killed!?" Zhan Guo pounded the desk in front of him, causing the documents on it to shake, and continued:

"You must be kidding! How could that guy...he's capable of taking on the Yonko all by himself!"

"The two men who wounded him were Skye and Redfield, Marshal."

The intelligence minister's words made Zhan Guo suddenly realize what was going on and it no longer seemed strange to him.

Even though Sky and Redfield are old, they are basically the same age as him, and their strength should not be underestimated.

When they were young, the two of them could stand on equal footing with Roger on their own. It is also true information that their combined terrifying fighting power was enough to defeat Hawkeye.

Seeing that Zhan Guo didn't speak for a long time, the minister continued to report the intelligence:

"Moria directly refused to join the battle because he was unwilling to confront Arthur head-on."

"That guy! He had many conflicts with Kaido 20 years ago. After Kaido took away his great strength and reputation, we thought he would be of some help to the government. Didn't we expect him to fail at the critical moment?"

"So," Sengoku left Moria behind and continued to ask, "Where's Doflamingo?"

"He said he met Arthur in Magic Valley Town and was seriously injured and unable to participate in the battle!"

Bang! Zhan Guo slammed the table again, his face extremely ugly.

The Seven Warlords of the Sea are summoned, and except for Bartholomew Kuma, who had his memory wiped and was completely transformed into a killing machine, the only one left is Blackbeard, who has disappeared.

"What a bunch of hateful guys! They take so many benefits from the government, but at the critical moment they all find excuses to refuse!" Zhan Guo was so angry that he had no place to vent.

"The Seraphs haven't arrived yet. We don't have enough troops for the decisive battle!"

"How about we compromise with the Whitebeard Pirates' demands?" The head of the intelligence department suddenly said:

"At least we can avoid a war. It seems we have no chance of winning..."

"Even if we return Fire Fist Ace, Whitebeard cares about his family and will definitely stop attacking Marinford."

"Isn't this good? At least it doesn't make the world so nervous."

"Then...what should Arthur do? That guy is an absolute lunatic. He occupied the Sabaody Archipelago just to take revenge on us!"

Faced with a serious shortage of troops, the Warring States period fell into great pain.

When he thought about Aokiji's defeat to Arthur, he felt that he had no chance of winning.

The cadre of the Ice Blade is actually a guy of Shiki's level. Even if they join forces with Garp, it will be difficult for them to win.

"Order all Marines in Marinford to say goodbye to their families and relocate their families to the nearby training islands."

"Marshal, you want to...!"

"Tell them that this is a life-and-death battle and they must be prepared to sacrifice their lives for justice."

"I understand. This is a decisive battle between justice and evil!"

Once the war signal is issued, it is impossible to withdraw. Sengoku even said that even if he reaches a reconciliation with Whitebeard, Arthur will not give up the war.

Zhan Guo felt that it would be better to burn his boats and use the last bit of power to gamble on the future of the ocean!

I would rather die in glory than live in disgrace!
