Marineford War: I Will Stand in the Sky

A legendary pirate like "Golden Lion" Shiki, how could a mere Marine lieutenant possibly engage him head-on? He'd probably be pulverized in a single encounter.

It was obvious that the kid in front of him was faking it, putting on an act to scare him.

With this thought in mind, the burly naval captain arrogantly stepped forward and, taking advantage of Aon's distraction in trying to answer Fleet Admiral Sengoku's question, snatched the Den Den Mushi and cursed at it.

"Idiot, you've overdone it, you know that?"

???

Marshal of the Warring States Period.

"Who are you? What is your identity?" asked the Warring States Marshal.

The burly naval captain retorted without any politeness, "And who are you? What makes you think you have the right to put on airs in front of me?"

At this moment, Fleet Admiral Sengoku, sitting in his office at Marineford, was completely bewildered. He was especially confused as he watched the Den Den Mushi mimicking the arrogant expression of the burly naval captain. He subconsciously answered.

"I am Fleet Admiral Sengoku. Who are you, really?"

"Hiss~"

The burly naval captain couldn't help but laugh again, saying, "You? And you're the Fleet Admiral Sengoku? If that's the case, then I'm 'Golden Lion' Shiki."

The fact that the burly naval captain saluted Fleet Admiral Sengoku in such a manner instantly enraged Lieutenant Hope, who instinctively wanted to blast the bastard away.

However, Yann placed his arm in front of Lieutenant Hope and said calmly.

"Well, it's good to let the old man see the true spirit of the grassroots navy firsthand."

"This……"

Lieutenant Hope glared at the burly naval captain through gritted teeth, seething with anger, but under Yarn's orders, he could only force himself to suppress it.

[Chapter 53 I'm not very familiar with you]

At this moment, the Sengoku Marshal realized that someone must have stolen Aon's Den Den Mushi, and said with great authority.

"I am the Fleet Admiral. Who are you? And where is Captain Yone?"

"Still insisting he's a marshal of the Warring States period, huh... the Warring States period..."

The burly naval captain paused, suddenly realizing that it wasn't entirely impossible.

"This...this..."

In an instant, the burly naval captain's hands began to tremble uncontrollably, and he shouted urgently.

"Impersonating a naval admiral, do you know what a serious crime that is? Believe me or not, I'll contact Rear Admiral Camillo right now to arrest you?"

"Major General Camillo?"

Marshal Sengoku thought for a moment, then called out towards the office door, "Go and call Major General Camillo, who's on duty downstairs."

???

A burly naval captain.

At this moment, the burly naval captain panicked completely, realizing that he seemed to have really messed up this time.

His face was pale, and his lips trembled...

At this moment, the burly naval captain seemed to be drunk, gradually becoming unsteady on his feet, and subconsciously wanted to return the hot Den Den Mushi to Aon.

However, Yann did not take the Den Den Mushi and said...

"If you like this Den Den Mushi, you can hold onto it for me. I'm having trouble figuring out how to answer this old man. Thanks."

"Gurgle..."

For a moment, the other seven officers of the North Sea Naval Base, who were listening with trepidation, almost all swallowed hard.

Soon, just as the burly naval captain stood there dumbfounded, not knowing what to do, a conversation broke out on the other end of the Den Den Mushi.

"Major General Camillo, reporting for duty."

"Come on, Major General Camillo, can you help me confirm the identity of the person on the Den Den Mushi? He seems to know you."

Immediately, a familiar voice, belonging to a burly naval colonel, rang out.

"I am Major General Camillo. Who are you?"

“Big…Big Brother, it’s…it’s me…” the burly naval captain replied with a mournful face.

? !

Major General Camiro.

Why is it that idiot from Beihai? And why did Marshal Zhan Guo send him here to verify his identity?

Instantly, Major General Camillo realized something was wrong and retorted.

"I haven't been a big brother for many years, you've mistaken me for someone else, haven't you?"

After a pause, Major General Camiro continued.

"Oh, that voice... I remember now, you're that fellow townsman I haven't seen for years, the one who went to Beihai to take up a post, the one I wasn't very close to?"

Fleet Admiral Sengoku glanced at Major General Camillo, then spoke up, "Alright, Major General Camillo, you can go back to your work now. Give me the Den Den Mushi."

"Yes, Marshal Sengoku!"

As Rear Admiral Camillo's final, resounding voice came through the Den Den Mushi, echoing across the entire warship deck with the title "Fleet Admiral Sengoku," it utterly shattered the burly naval captain's last glimmer of hope.

At this moment, the officers of the North Sea Naval Base present, while initially shocked, gradually began to react.

With Rear Admiral Camillo's confirmation, there is no doubt that the person on the other end of the Den Den Mushi is none other than the current Supreme Commander of the Navy—Fleet Admiral Sengoku.

However, that's not the worst part!

What's frightening is the way this young Inspector General of the North Sea addressed the Warring States Marshal.

An old man?!

At that moment, they suddenly understood what the words "Buddhist-like" written on the cloak behind Yann were really conveying.

For a moment, the officers of the North Sea Naval Base, who had previously remained uninvolved, felt as if countless sea kings were swimming and churning through their minds.

'Oh dear, the young master of the Warring States Marshal's family is visiting the North Sea! Why didn't you give us a heads-up?!'

The Warring States Marshal, who vaguely understood what had happened, asked directly.

"You brat, you can hear me, right? Pay attention, what's going on on your end?"

Yann looked at the burly naval captain who was respectfully holding the Den Den Mushi, and without taking the Den Den Mushi, he spoke directly.

"Old man, it's nothing, it's nothing. I just entered the North Sea and was blocked by the local navy. They wanted to open fire on me, which would have caused a normal maritime accident."

After a pause, Yann added, "And he also claimed to have Rear Admiral Camillo at Naval Headquarters as a backer, enough to easily quell the situation and take responsibility."

"Pfft..."

On the other end of the Den Den Mushi, Major General Camillo, who had not yet left Sengoku's office, suddenly collapsed to the ground, his legs giving way.

"Well, since you've already started working, you can get back to work."

The Sengoku Marshal said something simple, then hung up the Den Den Mushi and spoke.

"Someone, help Major General Camiro downstairs, and while you're at it, check his house."

"Yes!"

Soon, several naval officers escorted Rear Admiral Camillo away.

Meanwhile, the Warring States Marshal rested his chin on his hands, lost in thought.

The branch naval units were so audacious as to plan to kill the inspector general sent by the Navy Headquarters and cause a maritime disaster.

Clearly, Marshal Sengoku understood that Arn was not joking, but was expressing to him the seriousness of the current problems facing the North Sea Navy.

Furthermore, are the officers in those branch naval units also connected to those in the Navy Headquarters?

"It seems that Yann and Kuzan are right. There are indeed huge loopholes and problems in the supervision and management of the Four Seas Navy, and it has gradually become a faction of its own."

The Warring States Marshal murmured something, then picked up a document and added the relevant questions to it.

Meanwhile, as Yann gestured to Lieutenant Hope, Lieutenant Hope retrieved the Den Den Mushi from the burly naval captain's hand.

Lieutenant Hope then waved his hand, signaling two naval soldiers to step forward and detain the burly naval captain, awaiting his transport to Enies Lobby.

However, the burly naval captain, whose face had been ashen, suddenly launched an attack, leaping forward and slamming his fist, as big as a casserole dish, toward Yaen, shouting.

"So what if he's the son of the Warring States Marshal? This is the North Sea. Even if I can't make it in the Navy, I can just become a pirate. I have plenty of resources and connections to make things happen."

"A mere naval captain and a naval ensign, if you want to put me on trial, you'd better give me your life first!"

In a short moment, the burly naval captain had made his decision.

Rather than being captured, sent to Enies Lobby for trial, and imprisoned, he might as well go all the way and become a pirate.

With the wealth accumulated by the burly naval captain in the waters under his jurisdiction, he could easily recruit a large number of pirates and instantly become one of the most notorious pirates in the North Blue.

However, with the imposing naval captain inside a warship and eight other warships lined up around him, escaping alone was impossible.

The only way is to capture the seemingly refined and frail son of the Warring States marshal in front of us.

Once we kidnap him, we can get anything we want!

[Chapter 54: Water that is too clear has no fish]

With this thought in mind, the burly navy man's expression grew even fiercer, feeling that his punch was more powerful than ever before, all in order to subdue Arn before the others could react.

Facing the burly naval captain's fist, which seemed capable of shattering wooden planks, Yann remained unmoved, his eyelids even drooping slightly, as if he hadn't reacted yet.

The next instant, just as the burly naval captain watched the fist about to approach Yaen, a smile involuntarily appeared on his face.

Suddenly, a dark shadow loomed over the burly naval captain, and Lieutenant Hope's fan-like hand instantly pressed down on the captain's head.

"boom!"

The burly naval captain's fist slammed into Lieutenant Hope's chest with a dull thud, but Lieutenant Hope remained motionless, without even a change in expression.

Immediately, to the horrified gaze of the burly naval captain, Lieutenant Hope squeezed his head with his five fingers, then lifted the burly naval captain up and slammed him heavily onto the deck.

"boom!"

"uproar……"

The burly naval captain coughed up a large amount of blood instantly, his vision went black for a moment, and he almost lost consciousness from the blow.
