From Pirates to the Strongest Death God in Soul Society

Chapter 206 Let’s fight this unlucky guy Wang Zhi first!
Regarding the expedition against the Four Emperors' pirate groups, after some discussion, Sakaski, Bane, Ichisho, and Borsalino could not reach a consensus.

Bane's proposal was to attack the Big Mom Pirates, first defeat Totland Bankoku, and eliminate Charlotte Linlin.

His point of view is that, judging from the threat level alone, the Big Mom Pirates currently led by Charlotte Linlin is the pirate force with the most development potential and threat in the New World.

Although the Red Hair Pirates also have their own territory, they hardly manage it. Shanks and his friends roam around and commit crimes all day long. It's a bit like an adventure group. Although they are famous, they are not very dangerous.

As for Kaido, although his Hundred Beasts Pirates also occupies a vast territory and has great development potential, they also control the largest arms business in the New World and secretly have a cooperative relationship with the World Government.

However, the Beasts Pirates are located deep in the New World. If the Navy wants to conquer them, the large fleet formed by the Navy will need to go deep into the New World to fight. This would make the situation too complicated and the pressure on logistics would be enormous.

Only Charlotte Linlin's Big Mom Pirates has occupied a very large territory and has already established a very mature pirate nation system. The base of resources, population, etc. is very terrifying and has a strong war potential. In addition, Charlotte Linlin is ambitious. Compared with her strength, her strategic vision is also worthy of attention.

Looking back at the turbulent times in the New World over the past few decades, overlords from all sides have taken turns to take the stage, from Rocks to Sky, from Sky to Roger, and from Roger to Whitebeard, all of them are quite tricky characters.

But only Charlotte Linlin and her Big Mom Pirates successfully established a fairly complete national system.

Its comprehensive strength can be said to be the strongest among these generations of overlords!

Sakaski and others do not deny this point. The threat level of Charlotte Linlin is indeed the most terrifying among all the pirate groups at present.

But even the radical Sakaski felt that Bane's ideas were a bit too radical.

"Precisely because the Big Mom Pirates have the most solid foundation among all pirate forces, if we are unable to resolve the core issue in a decisive battle from the very beginning, I'm afraid our navy will be caught in a long tug-of-war with the Big Mom Pirates. And once this happens, I'm afraid neither Kaido nor the Red Hair Pirates will sit idly by, and it is very likely that in a short period of time, it will evolve into a situation where our navy headquarters will fight against the three major pirate groups." Sakaski said helplessly.

He hated pirates and was confident in his own abilities, but he was not so arrogant as to lead the navy to fight one against three as soon as he took office as admiral.

"If we follow Borsalino's proposal and choose Kaido's Beasts Pirates as the first target, not to mention the battle line issue, under the pressure from us, Kaido is likely to cooperate with Charlotte Linlin and obtain her resource assistance. This may also evolve the war into a long tug-of-war, and may even eventually lead to an alliance between the Big Mom Pirates and the Beasts Pirates." Bane frowned.

"What about Red Hair?" He touched his chin and smiled, "Kaido and Big Mom have a history. They are both remnants of the Rocks era, and they did join forces again during the Battle of Marineford. But the Red Hair Pirates are different. Red Hair Shanks came from the Roger Pirates and has old grudges with Kaido and Big Mom. According to intelligence, they have had fierce conflicts many times over the years. With Red Hair's arrogance, I think he would not bother to join forces with the others even when facing our Marine Headquarters. So why not make them the first target?"

"It's not easy to find." Borsalino said simply and clearly.

Sakaski also nodded and said: "Although the Red Hair Pirates also have their own base, they don't pay much attention to these. They don't even stay in the New World very often. Instead, they travel around the world all year round. So their whereabouts are too erratic. If you want to take action, it's a bit difficult to find any traces."

After much discussion, they still couldn't reach a consensus.

After a while, Bane slammed the table and said, "In this case, it is probably impossible to solve the pirate problem in the New World in the simplest way. We should proceed step by step. By constantly eroding and squeezing the living space of the New World pirates, we can expand the influence of our navy, curb the development of pirate forces, reduce their strategic space, cage them, and even force them to choose to fight with us."

There was some regret in Sakaski's eyes, but he could only nod and say, "It seems that this is the only way."

Bane could clearly feel that after becoming a marshal, Sakaski's judgment on many things became "restrained", and his style was more conservative than when he was a general.

But this is completely understandable. After all, he is now a marshal. Every decision he makes may have an irreversible impact on the future of the navy. He can no longer be as unscrupulous as before.

"Beehive Island, Wang Zhi." Ben pointed to the sea chart on the table and said, "To be honest, I have wanted to kill him for a long time, but I accidentally got rid of Shiqi before, and then there were too many things to do and I couldn't take care of him. The geographical location of Beehive Island is particularly prominent in the New World. It is a place of four wars. In the past, it existed as a buffer zone for the Whitebeard, Big Mom, Beasts, Red Hair and other pirate groups. If we destroy Beehive Island and build a new front there, we can further seize the initiative in the New World and attack or defend."

The others also focused their attention on the location of Beehive Island on the sea chart. It must be said that the geographical advantage of this place is indeed very good. It is indeed a strategic location. If the navy can gain a foothold there, it will be like a nail, firmly nailed in front of the three major pirate groups, further deterring the three major pirate groups. After discussing with each other, several people gradually approved of this plan.

After thinking for a while, Sakaski said, "I think this is a good idea. I will convene a meeting of senior generals and discuss this idea. If there are no problems, let everyone study the battle plan."

"I won't participate." Bane took a sip of his teacup and said, "After the headquarters' relocation starts in two days, I plan to go to G-6. It's also a frontline sea area. I'll go there first to arrange things for G-6. This way, after we take down Beehive Island, we can work together to reduce the pressure on Beehive Island."

Seeing this, Sakaski nodded first, then looked at Yixiao and asked, "What about you?"

"I should continue to stay in the new headquarters." He said with a smile.

His takeover of the dovish navy has not yet ended. There will definitely be many related matters to deal with later, so it is not convenient for him to leave the headquarters.

Finally, after discussing some idle matters, Sakaski said, "After the headquarters is relocated, I will immediately start the world recruitment, and strive to supplement and increase the manpower of our navy as much as possible before launching the New World War."

Kuzan and Sakaski had had countless disputes over this matter. Now that Sakaski has become the marshal, Bane and Yixiao obviously have no intention of interfering in the matter. Borsalino is a seasoned man, and Sakaski is in power. No one can stop him, so he can act arbitrarily.

Soon, the small meeting between the general and the marshal was disbanded.

After walking out of Sakaski's room, Ben saw Nami leaning against the wall in the corridor waiting for him. He smiled and said, "Didn't I tell you not to wait for me? Go and rest first, didn't you?"

"Ain has gone to do what you asked him to do. I'm afraid you won't be able to take care of yourself if no one is around you." Nami came forward, took Bane's arm, and said with a smile.

"That makes sense. If I left you, I wouldn't know how to live," Bane said in an exaggerated manner.

But to be honest, since meeting Nami, Bane doesn't have to worry about the things in life anymore, and he can focus more on other more important things every day. After Iin was recommended by Teacher Zefa to be his assistant, he also reduced a lot of pressure in these work matters. He only needs to make a decision, and Iin will arrange the rest.

If Bane were to leave Nami and Ian's care now, he would really be in a state of panic.

"Notify Zoro and the others that Headquarters No. 1 will move to the New World G-6 next month. We will then leave together and head directly to G-. We will not be back in the short term." Bane said.

"Got it." Nami let go of Bane's arm, took out a small notebook, and quickly wrote it down.

Meanwhile, in the Chabaoti Archipelago.

At the naval base, Major General Maynard looked at the transfer order that had just been faxed from the headquarters with excitement, and he couldn't hide the smile on his face.

"Major General, is there any good news? Why are you so happy?" a naval colonel asked curiously.

Hearing this, Maynard stood up excitedly and said, "What a great news! I can finally leave this filthy Sabaody Archipelago. Admiral Bane has taken a liking to me. I will report to the G-6 Naval Base and follow the admiral from now on. Hahahahahaha!"

Maynard was really excited because he himself did not have a deep foundation in the navy. Although he was a brave and hardworking man, it would be embarrassing if he had talent but no one appreciated it, right?
Originally, this guy was thinking that after the competition for the marshal position and the vacancy for the admiral position were over, the middle and high-level positions of the navy would usher in a new round of changes. How could he seek his own interests from this?

Before he could think of any good idea, good news came from the sky: the assistant officer beside General Bane directly sent him an invitation. This way, he had reached the top in one step. From now on, he could also call himself the direct descendant of the general!
