Chapter 224 3 persons and 1 body

The former naval marshal Zhan Guo had a relatively positive reputation among the people on the sea. He was able to keep the ships sailing smoothly for decades despite the conflicts between the many parties involved. It can be said that his merits outweighed his faults, and he dedicated his entire life to the naval cause.

This octogenarian, through fragments of General Ajin's memories, made the audience watching the show feel the sadness of his later years.

In a secret ward at the Navy Headquarters, a man with bandages wrapped all over his body was lying there, with only his face eroded by time exposed. There were large wounds on the face of this vegetative man, but it could not be seen that this man was the former Navy Marshal Sengoku.

Admiral Akin, wearing a navy cloak of justice, pushed the door open and entered. In addition to Marshal Sengoku who had become a living dead, there was also an old woman standing near the window. She was using the scissors in her hand to cut off the extra branches and leaves next to the flowers. This pot of flowers was brought in by her not long ago, and it was blooming with bright red vitality.

"It's Ajin, I didn't expect you to come here," the old man put down the scissors in his hand and turned to look at the newly appointed admiral. He was really a rare guest.

Character Notes: Former Navy Chief of Staff - Crane, the user of the superhuman Wash Wash Fruit

"Chief of Staff He..." Before Ajin could finish her words, she was stopped by the old woman. She had already resigned from her position in the navy and did not retain any military rank. She really could not bear the title of Chief of Staff now.

"Ajin, don't call me that. I'm retired and an old lady now. You can just call me Ms. Tsuru. I heard that you took on the task of eliminating Doflamingo, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. It's a bit difficult for you." Although Ms. Tsuru's hair is gray and her face is full of wrinkles, and if you look closely you can see some age spots, but in terms of mental state, she is getting younger and younger. At her age, she has let go of many things.

Since Altria Pendragon took office as acting marshal, she has gained widespread support from radicals and has carried out a large-scale reorganization within the navy in order to maintain the purity of the team. Many bureaucrats from the old era have been dismissed, and corrupt officials in the navy have been locked up and killed. The acting marshal has completely controlled the entire navy through various means, and her power has reached its peak.

In contrast, the old man, Marshal Sengoku, became a vegetable after the war after his devil fruit was taken away. In the past two years, his old subordinates often came to visit him in the ward. In recent years, due to the support of the twelve navy admirals, the acting marshal has a transcendent status. Now the navy is closer to Altria Pendragon. The old man Sengoku has gradually faded out of the mainstream navy's vision and became dispensable and no one mentioned him anymore.

Fortunately, the acting marshal was not the kind of person who did not remember old friendships. In terms of treatment, Marshal Zhan Guo remained the same as before. He himself had no children or lover, and his only expense was in this ward.

Previously, a female nurse was recruited to be responsible for changing the feces and urine of Zhan Guo, who was unable to take care of himself. However, after a careful inspection by He, it was found that the female nurse was not attentive in taking care of the baby. Ms. He rarely got angry, and after driving the female nurse away, she took over the job of changing the feces and urine of Zhan Guo. Anyway, she had nothing to do after retiring with the acting marshal, and she was willing to take care of her old friend. She did not think it was a dirty thing. Her own washing fruit was very convenient in taking care of people.

"I guess it was Artoria who told you about the entanglement between Sengoku and Doflamingo. His adopted son Corazon was a good boy, but unfortunately good people are destined not to live long in this sea. When you fight with Doflamingo, you must not show mercy. If you get rid of him in the end, it will be one of my wishes." Tsuru had been hunting Doflamingo for many years, chasing Tenyasha on the sea, but unfortunately in the end he relied on his identity as a Celestial Dragon, plus the evil deed of intercepting Tenjo Gold, which combined to send him to the position of Shichibukai, and the navy completely lost its reason to arrest him.

The Seven Warlords of the Sea are the allies of the Navy. The only purpose of the World Government in establishing this system is to maintain the dynamic balance on the ocean, to prevent the pirates from becoming too powerful, and to prevent the Navy from losing control. The two have both a cooperative and mutually restrained relationship. The Celestial Dragons' means of playing with balance have always been rubbish, and have long aroused dissatisfaction among the Navy.

And now the acting marshal is determined to overthrow this deformed system of recruitment and has gained more support from the navy in a short period of time. The system of Seven Warlords of the Sea is a violation of the justice of the navy and is simply used to disgust the navy. By issuing legal licenses to powerful pirates, will they change their ways and stop doing evil?

The reality is of course impossible. Once the pirates obtain a certificate for legal robbery, they will intensify the oppression on their own territory. Stealing a country happens from time to time. Ordinary civilians on the sea have suffered from the Seven Warlords system for a long time.

It is in line with the justice of the navy to completely sweep the Shichibukai system into the dustbin of history. Each Shichibukai has a navy admiral responsible for eliminating him. The acting marshal can be said to take this large-scale combat mission lightly.

Ajin shifted his gaze to Zhan Guo. He didn't expect that this once powerful naval marshal would end up in such a situation. It really shows how unpredictable the world is.

"Blackbeard Marshall D. Teach has been quite active on the sea recently, hunting many Devil Fruit users in the second half of the Grand Line. The power of the Four Emperors is still entering a stage of rapid expansion. It is not known how long it will take to avenge the former Marshal Sengoku." Speaking of the name of this pirate who has stirred up the world, Akin could not help but sigh. After taking over Whitebeard's territory, Marshall D. Teach, the new Four Emperors, has been rapidly expanding and grabbing territory on the sea, and he is showing signs of surpassing the other Four Emperors.

He thought of Blackbeard's evil face. The opponent's cunning and treachery made the navy pay a huge price. The biggest beneficiary of the Battle of Marineford was Marshall D. Teach. Before the war, no one thought that this fat black man would have the last laugh. Everyone in the game was fooled by him.

"I suspect Blackbeard may have private contact with Doflamingo. You'll have to be extra careful then. Facing that kind of trinity, it's not something that one person can defeat." Ms. Tsuru thought of the devil fruit on the other party, and the old man was secretly scared. He didn't know how much disaster this Blackbeard would bring to the new navy in the future.

"Trinity? It's an appropriate name. Currently, he has the nature-type Dark-Dark Fruit, the parahuman-type Tremolo-Tremolo Fruit, and the animal-type Mythical Beast-type Great Buddha form in his body. I really don't know what the structure of his body is that can accommodate three devil fruits. It's a nightmare to live in the same era as such a legend." Ajin knew that Blackbeard could deprive others of the power of their devil fruits, and his nature-type Rain Rain Fruit might become one of the targets.

At present, almost everyone in the Blackbeard Four Emperors' forces is a Devil Fruit user. The threat level on the sea is far greater than that of the other Four Emperors. The Navy is powerless in the current situation.
