Marineford War: I Will Stand in the Sky

Bruno's image was prominently displayed at the top, along with a brief introduction: a former CP9 member, a user of the "Door-Door Fruit," not particularly strong, skilled in the Six Powers of the Navy, guilty of an unforgivable crime that had a devastating impact on the World Government, with a bounty of 340 million Berries, life or death at stake!

"Dorag...you're not lying to me?!"

Bruno stared blankly, muttering to himself.

"Could it really be as Dragon said, that I betrayed the World Government and my comrades by embracing the Revolutionary Army's ideology? Is it just because I injured my head that I can't remember anything?"

Bruno swallowed hard, his gaze shifting to the book "General Outline and Guiding Principles of the Revolutionary Army's Ideology" on the table, which he then tried to pick up and begin reading.

While there were no explicit restrictions placed on Bruno, giving him the right to leave at any time, Dragon sensed this scene through his "Wind-Wind Fruit" ability, and couldn't help but smile.

As Yann said, the "Door-Door Fruit" has strategic value in terms of its use in warfare. It may not be apparent now, but it will definitely play a dazzling role in the future.

Therefore, Yann and Dragon went to great lengths to create opportunities for Bruno to try to understand the Revolutionary Army's ideology.

With Bruno having almost completely lost any chance of returning to the World Government, if the Revolutionary Army still cannot gain Bruno's approval, then it is destined that the two sides are not comrades who can move forward together.

“Bru bru…”

Just then, the special Den Den Mushi in Dragon's hand rang, and Yone's image was projected in front of Dragon, asking, "How is Bruno?"

"Finally, they've begun to actively try to understand the Revolutionary Army's ideology," Dragon replied with a slight smile.

"Hmm, keep an eye on it. The 'Door-Door Fruit' is extremely strategic. If Bruno can further develop it, it might be possible to open multiple doors connecting different islands in a certain area at the same time..."

After a pause, a hint of anticipation appeared in Yann's eyes as he spoke.

"If Bruno could really do that, then the turbulent currents that are gradually brewing in the world would be able to bypass geographical barriers and converge into a giant wave that could change the times."

"Don't worry, Chief of the General Staff..."

Dorrag said he was almost quite confident about this.

"As long as one is not an extremely evil person, they will all recognize this brilliant light of thought. As for whether Bruno can develop the fruit to that extent, that depends on his efforts."

"Um……"

Yaen nodded, then, while writing something with his head down, said, "There's something else I'm hesitant about."

"Oh? The Chief of the General Staff actually has such hesitation?" Dragon asked with some surprise.

Yern rolled his eyes at Dragon and said, "I'm just a normal human being, how could I not have feelings of hesitation?"

After a pause, Yann continued.

"In the original plan, Wano Country would continue to wage war, thereby constantly attracting the attention of the World Government and providing the Revolutionary Army with opportunities to train. However, Yamato has now gained the right to take control of Wano Country, and Yamato will completely align herself with the organization."

"Chief of Staff, do you mean... to openly withdraw from Wano Country?" Dragon asked.

“That’s right. If that’s the case, the World Government will have no excuse to interfere in Wano Country, and the organization will be able to completely control Wano Country through Yamato.”

"Furthermore, in the past six months, the Lian Chamber of Commerce's 'distributor system' has become thoroughly known throughout the sea, and the 'community islandization' has passed its most dangerous period. It is unlikely that it will attract the attention of the World Government in the future."

As he spoke, Yann paused, his pen still in his hand, and looked up to speak.

"More importantly, the World Government has promised not to interfere in Wano Country's internal politics, so Wano Country seems to have the conditions for a complete reform."

"What?" Dragon was a little taken aback.

Meanwhile, Aon, who had been synced by the video Den Den Mushi, stood up, walked to the window, looked out at the sky, and said...

"Previously, the Revolutionary Army's ideology and theory were indeed brilliant enough, but due to the existence of the World Government, the organization had to maintain sufficient secrecy. Even though the organization had secretly taken control of many kingdoms, it never had the opportunity to carry out thorough institutional reforms in those kingdoms to verify the correctness of that ideology."

"But Wano Country is different now. It is located in the latter half of the 'New World' sea area. In addition, it has the natural barrier of the harsh weather in the outer sea and the World Government's public promise not to interfere in Wano Country's internal affairs. So it seems that Wano Country has fully met the requirements to serve as a land for testing the Revolutionary Army's ideology."

"so……"

Yern turned his head slightly to look at Dragon, his eyes seemingly filled with excitement as he said, "I've hesitated for two whole days, unable to make up my mind whether I should take the risk and give it a try?"

"It's just the right time for the Revolutionary Army to plant enough seeds in the hearts of the common people before they leave Wano Country, and then let Yamato take the opportunity to carry out real reforms in Wano Country on the surface, and see if the seeds of organizational ideology can really bloom into beautiful flowers in this sea."

Upon hearing this, Dragon's eyes practically lit up, and he took the initiative to ask.

“That’s right, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Wano Country is the best place to test the correctness of that idea. Why hesitate? Chief of Staff.”

"What I'm hesitating about is... the World Government's reaction. That ideology has been completely exposed to the world, and the consequences it could cause are extremely complex. Especially the World Government, who might think that Wano Country has been completely corrupted by the Revolutionary Army and launch sanctions against Wano Country without regard for its public promises, or even war."

Yann spoke hesitantly, fully understanding that the worst-case scenario was possible.

Ultimately, the Revolutionary Army's ideology and the World Government's aims are completely opposed at the ideological level.

After all, the World Government's base is the Celestial Dragons, while the Revolutionary Army's base is countless civilians, and the two sides are fundamentally in conflict and opposition.

It is unrealistic to rely solely on the World Government's promises to resolve this level of conflict. If the World Government is threatened, then the World Government may destroy Wano Country at all costs.

Yarn's words made Dragon hesitate, and he dared not answer easily.

[Chapter 642. Lucci's Mission]

When Yann looked up at Dragon's hesitant expression, he couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

It was precisely because of his own hesitation that Yann tried to see different perspectives on choices from Dragon, but it seems that... even Dragon was caught in a dilemma.

Once the decision is made to use Wano Country to verify the correctness of the system generated by the Revolutionary Army's ideology, if successful, it will naturally point out the future path for the Revolutionary Army, and it will also be a great event that can inspire all comrades across the entire sea.

However... if the World Government's reaction is too intense, and Yamato's status as a "Shichibukai" and the promises made by the Five Elders cannot stop the World Government, then Wano Country's situation may become extremely bad, and it may even be completely destroyed like Ohara was before.

"Let me think about it some more."

Yann rubbed his temples and said in a somewhat heavy tone.

Just as Yann was about to hang up the Den Den Mushi, Dragon suddenly spoke up.

“Ya'en, don't carry too heavy a burden on your heart. Perhaps you can discuss this with Yamato, and…”

Dragon looked at Yaon and spoke.

"If I were a commoner in Wano Country, I would rather die in that new system than remain corrupt in the old era! So, perhaps it would be better to completely let go and let the commoners of Wano Country choose for themselves."

Upon hearing this, Yann's pupils contracted slightly involuntarily, as if he had gained some insight.

Immediately, Yann smiled broadly, revealing a rare, hearty, and relaxed smile, and said.

“That makes sense. Let’s decide on this then. You gather the opinions of the other comrades in the organization, and I’ll find an opportunity to ask Yamato for his thoughts.”

"If there are no problems, then let's give Wano Country a chance to choose for itself! A chance to open its borders and face this sea and this era with a completely new attitude!"

Dorrag nodded in response.

"it is good!"

As the Den Den Mushi ended, Yan seemed to have a weight lifted from his mind, and he shredded the papers that had been densely packed with various speculations on the table.

Immediately, Yann took a deep breath, regained some of his somewhat tired spirit, and left the office, heading towards the ward.

In the battle two days ago, in addition to the fact that all of CP0 died, in order to make the conflict appear flawless, all of the CP9 members were also injured, especially Lucci, whose injuries were quite serious.

However, when Yan opened the door to Lucci's hospital room, he was shocked to find that Lucci, whose chest was wrapped in bandages, was already practicing Armament Haki.

The weakness of Lucci's Armament Haki was one of the main reasons why he was seriously injured this time.

After all, after Lucci unleashed the "Hollow Zanpakuto: Leopard King", his body would naturally develop a defensive effect called "Steel Skin". However, it would be impossible to completely block Issho's "Heavy-Heavy Fruit" and Armament Haki slashes with "Steel Skin" alone.

Seeing this, Yann couldn't help but offer some advice. "Lucci, a little rest will give you more energy to go further."

Lucci immediately knelt down on one knee before Arn and said respectfully, "My power is far from sufficient as Lord Arn's weapon!"

Upon hearing this, Yann smiled gently, helped Lucci to his feet, and said, "I've said it many times, there's no need to bow to me like this. We're partners."

Lu Qi felt a warmth in his heart, but his expression remained respectful as he spoke.

"By the way, Lord Yan, the World Government has once again sent orders from the Five Elders, instructing me to lead the CP9 team back to the Holy Land of Mary Geoise as soon as possible."

"Um……"

Yann pondered for a moment, then said.

"As expected, once you've recovered your strength in a couple of days, lead your men back to the Holy Land of Mary Geoise to carry out your real mission."

"I will certainly live up to Lord Arn's expectations," Lucci replied firmly.

"I trust you……"

Yone patted Lucci on the shoulder and said, "I'm counting on you for the CP0 intelligence and whether we can make contact with that person."

"Yes." Lucci.

Immediately, Yann took out a permanent pointer from his pocket and handed it to Lucci.

"What is this?" Lucci asked.

“This is a permanent pointer to an island near the Holy Land Mary Geoise. Go there to resupply before returning to the Holy Land Mary Geoise,” Yann said.

"Is there some mission we need to carry out?" Lucci asked.

“No, I just need you to go to that island and contact a person with superpowers. She will modify your memories to help you evade the World Government’s inspection. Otherwise, if that person with superpowers named Caius examines you personally, they might notice something is wrong with you,” Yann replied.

Upon hearing this, Lu Qi frowned slightly.

Noticing Lucci's reaction, Yern asked with some confusion, "What's wrong?"

Lu Qi hesitated for a moment before speaking.

“I… do not want to forget or change my memories of Lord Arn, and this would affect my ability to carry out the tasks given to me by Lord Arn. I will also find a way to have them checked by Caius’s ability.”

Upon hearing this, Yann couldn't help but chuckle and said...

"Don't worry, I won't let that ability user completely change your memories. I'll just seal off a part of your original memories and fabricate a part of your memories that are almost identical to the rest of CP9 to deal with ability users like Caius."

“But if I did that, I would also forget the task Lord Arn gave me,” Lucci replied.

"There's no need to worry about that. That ability user will set your memories so that as soon as you see this person, all the sealed memories will be unlocked."

As he spoke, Yann took out a photo from his pocket and handed it to Lucci.

Lu Qi looked at the thin young man in the white lab coat in the photo, but felt a sense of unfamiliarity and subconsciously asked, "Who is this?"

"This is your goal—Vegapunk."

"Yan replied."

"The World Government has almost completely deleted all information about Vegapunk circulating in the ocean, and information about Vegapunk's appearance has been completely blocked. This photo of him in his youth was obtained from his former colleague Caesar."
