It had been a long ti since there had been a banquet with all the villagers of Cocoyasi Village. Both the Dream Exploration Team and the villagers were very happy!
But things weren’t so good for Sengoku and the others at Marine Headquarters. They had just finished dealing with Kong, promising him a reply tomorrow.
Although he had scolded them, they had managed to trick him for now.
As soon as Kong left, Brandnew imdiately ca in with a piece of paper. From the look of it, they knew it was information from the Dream Exploration Team.
"How is it?"
"Did Ryuen co back?" Sengoku asked Brandnew as soon as he ca in.
You could tell he was really worried.
Kong was a senior Marine from his generation. Although he had expected Kong not to side with them, it wasn’t ti for them to act yet.
They didn’t want to kill Kong here out of ’necessity’. This was Marine Headquarters, and killing Kong here would have too big of an impact.
"He’s back. This is the information the Dream Exploration Team just sent!" As he spoke, Brandnew handed the paper to Vice Admiral Tsuru.
Tsuru imdiately opened it to read, and Sengoku and Garp quickly leaned over from either side.
Akainu and the others also looked at Tsuru, wanting to know the contents of the information as soon as possible.
"I see, I understand..." Tsuru imdiately understood Ryuen’s aning after reading it.
"They’ve given us an excuse to temporarily shut the World Governnt up..." Sengoku said with emotion.
"That brat..." Garp cursed, but there was no anger in his tone.
Tsuru looked towards Akainu and said:
"The Dream Exploration Team said they will be appearing in the Sabaody Archipelago soon, so we can use this to shut the World Governnt up and openly send troops."
Akainu and the others were silent for a while.
This was indeed a good excuse. As for why they didn’t inform the World Governnt, of course it was because they were afraid the World Governnt would leak the news!
The Sabaody Archipelago was too close to the Holy Land Mary Geoise. The Dream Exploration Team would be appearing there, so the Marines of course had a reason to send troops there.
"In that case, let’s not waste any ti. Imdiately move the forces that need to be gathered to the vicinity of the Sabaody Archipelago first!" Akainu ordered decisively.
"Then I’ll go arrange it right away. As for Commander-in-Chief Kong... Sengoku, you go explain it to him." After Tsuru finished speaking, she got up and left the eting room.
Soon after,
Everyone at Marine Headquarters was instantly busy, and one warship after another left the headquarters and headed for the sea.
Kong, of course, noticed this scene. He looked at the warships heading towards Mary Geoise, his forehead furrowed.
What the hell are these bastards doing?
He had just secretly contacted a few trusted Marine mbers to find out the reason for this unusual troop movent.
But it definitely wouldn’t be quick.
So he was going to question Sengoku and the others again. They weren’t even avoiding him, the Commander-in-Chief of the Ard Forces, anymore. They could tell him, right?
But as soon as he opened the door, he saw Sengoku walking towards his temporary office. He imdiately understood that Sengoku was coming to give him an ’explanation’.
"Commander-in-Chief Kong, I’m really sorry. Because things happened so suddenly, we can only take advantage of the ti we have to gather more people to go to the Sabaody Archipelago..." Sengoku said with a slightly apologetic expression as he walked up to Kong.
Hearing Sengoku’s words, Kong frowned again:
"Sabaody Archipelago?"
"Sengoku, what exactly is going on with the Marine war? Why are you so frequently gathering troops to go towards the Red Line?"
"And what’s going on with the Sabaody Archipelago?"
As they spoke, Kong and Sengoku walked into the office. Kong sat in the main seat, and Sengoku sat down opposite him.
Then Sengoku continued:
"I’m really sorry, Commander-in-Chief Kong. The reason why we didn’t inform the World Governnt this ti is because we were afraid of leaks. As you know, there are too many spies from other forces in the current World Governnt..."
"Regarding why we Marines are moving troops near the Sabaody Archipelago, it’s because we received definite information that the Dream Exploration Team will be appearing in the Sabaody Archipelago soon, and may attack the Holy Land Mary Geoise..."
"What?!?" Before Sengoku could finish speaking, Kong stood up with a jolt, a look of shock on his face, "The Dream Exploration Team is going to attack the Holy Land Mary Geoise? Is this information accurate?!?"
It wasn’t Kong’s fault for losing his composure. The news was too shocking. If it was another force, he might not have lost his composure like this.
But it was the Dream Exploration Team!
Not long ago, the Dream Exploration Team’s leader, Ryuen, had directly attacked the Holy Land Mary Geoise, destroyed Pangaea Castle, and escaped unscathed.
More importantly, Saint Saturn, who possessed regenerative abilities and was almost immortal, had actually died at Ryuen’s hands!
So,
Now no one in the World Governnt dared to underestimate the Dream Exploration Team, including the Five Elders and Lord Imu!
Sengoku continued with a serious face:
"It’s been confird, it’s true, and they may appear in ways we don’t expect!"
"This ti, other forces may be involved as well, So, Commander-in-Chief Kong, I suggest that the World Governnt allow Marine forces to enter the Holy Land Mary Geoise!"
Sengoku looked at Kong with a serious expression, not even breathing hard. He even wanted to take this opportunity to move troops directly into Mary Geoise!
This way, it would be much easier for them to act when the ti ca.
Maybe what Sengoku said was too surprising. Kong didn’t co back to his senses for a long ti. He slowly sat down and thought.
That’s right,
Together with other forces...
They in the World Governnt had also heard so news that the Revolutionary Army also seed to be secretly moving troops...
Sengoku didn’t say anything more. He just sat and waited for Kong’s reaction.
————
Fleet Admiral’s office.
Vice Admiral Tsuru said as soon as she returned:
"There were no fighting or scolding sounds. It’s so quiet. Sengoku must have made Commander-in-Chief Kong believe him."
"Wahahaha~"
"I’ve always thought that Sengoku has the most and the most insidious mind. In terms of scheming, Commander-in-Chief Kong is definitely no match for him." Garp said with a laugh.
Hearing Garp’s words, Akainu, Aokiji, and the others didn’t express any other opinions.
They greatly admired Sengoku’s scheming, which was sothing they Marines of this generation lacked.
...
After a while, Sengoku returned to the Fleet Admiral’s office.
He said directly:
"Commander-in-Chief Kong just contacted the Five Elders. We’ve been granted permission to send troops directly into the Holy Land Mary Geoise!"
"What!!"
"Sengoku, how did you do it?" Garp looked at Sengoku with wide eyes.
The others also looked incredulous...
