Who told him to become the Pirate King!

Chapter 368 Figarand Shanks!

Pangu City, amidst the flowers.

Im threw down the newspapers he was holding and tossed them in front of the Five Elders and Figaland Green Gospel.

"Tell me, what exactly is this 'new navy' all about?"

As the true master of the world government.

The true king, seated on the throne of the sky.

Very few things on the high seas can stir Im's emotions.

The only things that could truly stir Im's emotions were those "old friends" from eight hundred years ago.

Joy Boy, the Little Mermaid, Neferutari Lily, Emmett—"—

However, most of these people have been dead for hundreds of years.

Im had thought there was nothing new on the high seas that could stir her emotions anymore.

But what the King of the World never expected was—

It has nothing to do with Joey Boy, and it has nothing to do with the Great Kingdom.

In the waters of the New World, a "new navy" suddenly and inexplicably appeared.

What is this?

A naval mutiny?

As the King of the World, Im's existence is unknown even within the Navy.

Even within the Celestial Dragons, only those of extremely high status, such as the Five Elders and the commander of the Knights of God, are qualified to know of Im's existence.

But even so.

Im also knows "Black Arm Zephyr" and "Aokiji Kuzan".

No matter what.

Both of them are admirals of the Marine Headquarters, the highest combat force of the World Government!

But these two "top combatants" actually went to the New World to establish their own sect?

Im couldn't understand.

At Im's request, the Five Elders quickly revealed all the intelligence they had just received from Sengoku.

As Figarand Greene listened to the Five Elders' account, he couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly.

According to the newspapers, the new navy had only just been established.

Why does Grimm feel like the new navy is about to completely conquer the New World?

Say something.

The Red-Haired Pirates have already been defeated by the new Marines.

The Whitebeard Pirates, the Dawn Pirates, the Storm Pirates, and the Beasts Pirates—are they still far away?

We can't expect the four pirate emperors to join forces and take down the new Navy, can we?

Im's mood at this moment was not much different from that of the ancient saint Grimm, except that he was filled with boundless rage.

At this moment, she felt that the punishment given to the Five Elders was still too lenient!

Even though the world government doesn't invest much power in the new world.

But that's a new world too!

It's practically a new world, almost a sixth the size of the ocean!

How did it just get "lost" like that?

Im hadn't initially placed much importance on the new navy.

After all, she had heard about Zefa's past experiences and personal circumstances.

Even if this old marine was once a Marine Admiral.

But to be honest—

An "admiral" who couldn't even defeat pirates, couldn't even protect his subordinates, and even had his arm forcibly cut off by pirates.

Im felt that Zephyr's era was long gone.

Therefore, at the very beginning, Im thought that the new navy was actually supported by Aokiji and Kuzan on their own.

If we look at it from this perspective...

Is the new Navy just a larger version of the "Emperor Pirates"?

After all, there was Zephyr, a special figure who was once a Marine Admiral.

The new Navy is slightly stronger than other Emperor Pirate crews.

That was what Im originally thought.

But now, she suddenly realizes that her previous view was completely wrong!

The new navy has one admiral and two admirals.

In the New World, the supreme commander of every naval branch base "betrayed" them.

Most of the member states located within the New World also "abandoned" the World Government at this time, choosing to support the new Navy.

Can this still be called the "new navy"?

This is practically a "new world military government"!

Judging from the overall strength that the new navy has shown so far, it can be considered a smaller version of the world government!

In the hundreds of years since the establishment of the World Government, the "New Navy" has been the second most powerful "enemy" Im has ever encountered!

It's no exaggeration to say that...

The overall strength demonstrated by the new navy today can be considered the "third strongest in a thousand years"!

Over the past thousand years.

The only powers qualified to rank ahead of the new Navy are the World Government and the Great Kingdoms.

So.

With the establishment of the new navy, could Joey Boy be behind this incident?

Im subconsciously made that connection.

But the very next second, she immediately rejected the guess.

Im knew very well that Joey Boy was the first pirate ever recorded on the high seas, and the first man to be called a "pirate".

In a sense, Joy Boy could even be called the "first Pirate King"!

The New Navy, a ridiculous new navy that still clings to the belief in "justice".

Surely they wouldn't get involved with pirates, would they?

Also.

Joy Boy's power is mainly inherited through his Devil Fruit powers.

Everyone who eats the destined [Zoan-type Human-Human Fruit Mythical Zoan Nikka Form] can be considered a potential, yet unawakened "Little Joy Boy".

If Im remembers correctly.

Just six years ago.

The Nika Fruit, whose history was distorted and misrepresented by the World Government as the "Gum-Gum Fruit," was stolen by that good-for-nothing, unruly brat from the Figarand family.

Im considered that the [Nika Fruit] hadn't truly awakened for hundreds of years...

In addition, there's the Figarand family's status within the Celestial Dragon class.

Im still didn't do anything to that brat.

not to mention.

That brat has already been defeated by the new Marines, and he's about to lose his title of "Pirate Emperor".

This kind of person can't be Joey Boy.

But then again...

The brat from the Figarand family stole the Nika Fruit.

Now that brat has been defeated by the new navy.

So where is that extremely special [Nika Fruit]?

Could it be that the new Navy acquired that Devil Fruit?

Or perhaps that Devil Fruit was "reborn" on the sea and escaped the control of the new Navy?

Just like how that Devil Fruit has been evading the World Government's hunt for the past few centuries...

Im pondered for a long time before finally shifting his focus away from "Joey Boy and his Devil Fruit".

The more critical issue now is the new navy!

"Regarding the new navy."

Im looked down at the kneeling Five Elders, her voice cold and devoid of warmth.

"How do you want to handle this?"

Faced with the question from their boss, the five elders answered without hesitation, almost in unison.

"Lord Im! We request permission to attack the new navy!"

beat!

We definitely have to fight!

If the Five Elders don't completely shut down the new navy in the New World...

Then they can only wait for Im to strangle them to death!

and.

The World Government can only maintain its authority by eliminating the new Navy with lightning speed. Im nodded slightly, seemingly agreeing with the Five Elders' plan, but then she asked.

"The new Navy—even setting aside the vice admirals, there's Zephyr, Aokiji—and that Fujitora whose strength is no less than that of an admiral."

"If you want to subdue the new Navy, you should at least send three top-tier combatants. So, are you planning to commit the entire navy's force?"

The old navy had four top combat forces—at least in Im's opinion.

Sengoku period, Kizaru, Akainu, Garp.

If we want to ensure an absolute advantage in the war against the new navy.

Then Marineford would have to send out at least all four of them!

but.

If all four members of the Warring States period were sent to the New World.

So what about the rest of the ocean?

The safety of Mary Geoise, the pirates in Paradise, and the Revolutionary Army lurking in the shadows—

Are we just going to ignore these things?

To put it even worse.

If Sengoku and his men were sent to the New World to fight the New Navy...

If one of these four were to betray them on the spot, like Aokiji, and join the new Marines...—

So how should the World Government handle this?

For example, that "Monkey D. Garp" thing!

Im was very impressed with this member of the "D Clan".

And if she remembered correctly, Garp was Aokiji's master.

This guy is too dangerous!

"Lord Im!"

Nasujuro Sei spoke with utmost sincerity, in a humble posture of bowing.

"I request permission to personally lead the troops to the New World to defeat the New Navy!"

Among the five elders.

As the financial guardian of the World Government, Nasujuro's relationship with the Navy is arguably the closest.

He is also the one among the Five Elders who deals most frequently with the Navy.

In other words.

With the establishment of the new navy, Nasujiro Sei has a lot of "pots" to deal with.

This is also why he took the initiative to request to enter the New World and fight against the New Navy at this time.

The Five Elders "descending to earth" or something...

It does not matter.

Nasujuro is willing to offer his heart to Lord Im!!

The Five Elders are heading to the New World?

Im stared at Nassuro Saint, not saying a word for the time being, but she glanced at Figarand Green Saint beside her.

Under normal circumstances.

Even the supreme commander of the Knights of God, Figaland Green Saint, would not easily enter the flower garden of Pangu City.

The reason this leader of the Knights of God came here is because he received an order from Im!

Im summoned the Ancient Grimm!

At this moment, having received a signal from Im, Figaland Greene, who had been kneeling like a statue for a long time, finally got his "opportunity".

"Lord Im!"

Grimm prostrated himself and said respectfully.

"I am also willing to enter the New World and fight against the new navy for you!"

Greene's positive attitude stemmed from that "wild child" of the Figaland family.

Figarand Shanks!

Im nodded slightly in his heart, then shook his head again.

Figarand Gringu must have ruined his brain from practicing swordsmanship; all he can think about is fighting and killing.

Im spoke, slowly uttering her command.

"You and ·——"

The Five Elders going to the New World in person... it's not the right time yet.

Im's mind flashed through several of the Navy's top combatants.

Sengoku, Garp, Kizaru, Akainu—

"You will enter the New World with Kizaru Borsalino. First, go and negotiate with the new Marines."

"Im said calmly."

"Go and bring that good-for-nothing child of the Figaland family back to Mary Geoise!"
