Sailing at Sea: The Breath of the Day at the Start

"Zeffa, what's up?"

Sengoku's voice came through the Den Den Mushi, and his attitude was relatively mild.

"I want you to send some troops to be stationed on an island."

"What happened?"

Zefa told Sengoku the whole story.

After listening, Sengoku remained silent for a while before saying:

"This is indeed a dereliction of duty on our part, but now that the pirates have been captured, there is no need to send more troops."

"Isn't it necessary? The Navy's serious dereliction of duty has completely eroded their trust. Shouldn't we take immediate action to rectify the situation and restore these humiliated people's faith in justice?"

Zefa said angrily.

The Warring States period's voice deepened:

“Zeffa, our navy doesn’t have many troops right now. If we station troops on every remote island like this, how can we uphold justice and suppress the ever-increasing number of pirates on the high seas?”

"As far as I know, there are still quite a few surplus naval forces stationed in Mary Geoise during the Sengoku period..."

Before Zephyr could finish speaking, Sengoku's cold voice rang out through the Den Den Mushi.

"Zeff! There's no need to say anything more. The troops stationed with the World Government are absolutely not allowed to be moved. Now that your internship is over, bring your men back."

beep beep.

"Sengoku...do you no longer see the common people, only the world government?"

With gritted teeth, Zefa slammed his fist on the corner of the table, instantly shattering it.

While on that small island, the words of the black-haired boy echoed in his mind once again.

"I did see the evil of the pirates, but at the same time I also saw the incompetence of the Navy."

…………

52. A sudden act of malice, the Seven Warlords of the Sea (5/5)

The next few days.

The warships returned to Marineford along another route.

We passed three islands in succession.

Ron signed in one by one.

His Qi and Blood value finally broke through the 700-point mark.

Moonwalk was successfully executed for the first time.

Besides.

Ron also had an extra silver revolver, a bonus reward from a sign-in session, a system-issued item with unlimited ammo.

Although he liked it very much, he decided to keep it in the system space for the time being.

Besides a large amount of treasures and money, the system space contained some clothing, furs, and various kinds of fine wine.

Ron hasn't drunk the bottles of wine that Makino gave him yet.

"Luckily, the system has enough space, otherwise these things really wouldn't be stored or carried."

Ron, who was leaning on the railing, left the system space and opened his eyes. What he saw was a boundless blue sea.

Looking at the vast ocean before me.

Feeling the sea breeze gently blowing through my hair.

With his arms resting on the railing, a rare look of loneliness flashed in Ron's eyes.

I wonder how Mars, Father Harris, Aunt Mary, and Uncle Brian are doing...

Are Makino, Ace, and Luffy alright...?

Has Kuina gotten stronger...?

"What are you thinking about?"

A pleasant female voice rang out beside Ron.

Ron turned his head.

Ayn, with blue curly hair and wearing a black cloak, walked towards him.

"nothing."

He looked away and said.

Ayn walked to his side, rested her arm on the railing, and looked at him, saying:

"You're lying. The way you looked at me just now made me think you were thinking about something."

"Could it be that he's thinking about his girlfriend back home?"

"certainly not."

The two stood together.

Ron's head only reached her shoulder.

"Thank you for helping me last time."

Ai Yin gazed at the vast ocean road before her.

"It wasn't really to help you, I was just in a bad mood at the time and wanted to find something to chop up."

"Hehehe, that's really the reason for being willful."

Upon hearing this, Ai Yin smiled and said, "If the guy you killed knew, he'd be furious."

Ron sneered, "It's already a favor that he wasn't killed in one strike."

"makes sense."

Ayn rested her chin on her arm draped over the railing, turned her head to look at Ron almost eye to eye, and asked, "Where did you learn swordsmanship?"

"A kendo dojo called Isshin Dojo is located on a small island in the East China Sea."

……

While Ron and Ain were chatting.

Shuji and a companion went to the place where the members of the Ghost Hand Pirates were being held to conduct a routine inspection in case there were any oversights.

Just as the two passed by the cage where Ghost Hand was imprisoned.

With its arms severed and its body bound by iron chains, the ghostly hand sneered at the two men, "Hehehehe! You dare to arrest me? Do you know whose subordinate I am?"

"What you're doing is actually good for that person."

"That lord?"

Xiu Zhi frowned and looked at the ghost hand in the cage, saying, "So you have someone above you?! Who is that person?"

"Hehehehe, you'll find out soon enough."

"Hehehehe".

Xiuzhi felt uneasy and immediately went to report the matter to Zefa!

"People from the Ghost Hand Pirates."

Zefa's eyes narrowed.

He then recalled two pieces of information he had heard from the civilians on the island.

The Ghost Hand Pirates haven't left for four years!

They ordered the island's inhabitants to mine some kind of iron ore!

Take these two messages into account.

Zephyr made a decision in an instant!

The Ghost Hand Pirates must have been ordered by someone above to stay on this island for four years, blocking all communication between the inside and outside, with the aim of getting the people on this island to mine some kind of iron ore for them!

Those people in higher positions are the masterminds behind this!

Zefa had a bad feeling.

He looked at Xiuzhi and said:

"Repair, immediately notify them to speed up and return to Marineford at full speed."

"Yes!"

The warship accelerated toward Marineford.

What the people on the warship didn't know at that moment was...

Hundreds of miles behind the warship in the air.

A figure flew at high speed through the clouds, chasing after the warship.
