Marineford War: I Will Stand in the Sky

After all, judging solely from appearance, even the most professional doctor would consider the patient's condition extremely critical, given the bleeding from all seven orifices and the continuous bleeding from multiple wounds.

Even if the "Life Return" technique can perfectly control the body and disguise various injuries, Yaen is ultimately not a doctor with extensive medical knowledge. Once a doctor examines him carefully, they will definitely find something illogical.

"boom!"

Just then, Xiao Jin, who had quietly followed them into the medical room, suddenly made a piercing noise, completely attracting the attention of the two doctors.

"Huh? How come a bird flew in?"

"Let's check the patient's condition first, then let the soldiers take the bird out."

As the two doctors turned to look at Arn again, Arn was already holding the Soul-Slaying Blade in front of them, whispering something.

"Shatter, you illusion, you mirage!"

The next moment, in the eyes of the two doctors, after the patient made this abrupt move, he began to show a state of lucidity before death, holding the knife as if he wanted to make some final arrangements, but he was too weak to speak.

Immediately afterward, the two doctors dared not hesitate for a moment and began the surgery.

Most of the day later.

The two doctors then helped each other out of the medical room, looking completely exhausted.

"How is the situation?" Gion, who had been waiting outside the door, asked with concern.

"Such severe injuries. During the entire surgery, the patient was on the verge of death seven times. Fortunately, his will to live was extremely strong, which is why he was miraculously saved," the doctor said, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.

"So that means everything's alright?" Gion asked.

"We need to observe for another four or five days. Only if no other complications occur can we be considered completely out of danger," another doctor explained.

"That's good!"

Gion, feeling guilty about Aon's injury, breathed a slight sigh of relief. She then personally took Aon to the ward before heading to report the matter to Lieutenant General Tsuru.

"okay, I get it."

Lieutenant General Tsuru nodded, a slight smile appearing on his face at the news of Arn's successful rescue.

"In this way, I can say that I have done something for Marshal Zhan Guo."

Immediately afterward, Vice Admiral Tsuru dismissed Gion and dialed the Den Den Mushi (a type of electric scooter) of Fleet Admiral Sengoku.

"Hey, Tsuru? How's it going? Did the operation go smoothly?" Marshal Sengoku's voice, tinged with anticipation, came through.

"Sengoku, there are some things I need to report to you. Please remain calm," Vice Admiral Tsuru said sternly.

"Hmm?" Marshal Zhan Guo frowned, put down the pen he was working on, and had a bad feeling.

Lieutenant General Tsuru said solemnly.

"Naval ID: 01746, codename 'Millet Fruit,' and lieutenant colonel Don Quixote Rosinante, whose undercover identity is 'Corazon,' is highly suspected of treason. The intelligence he provided is seriously flawed and is closely related to the theft of the Ope Ope no Mi."

The Warring States Marshal was completely stunned, exclaiming in disbelief, "What?!"

"This is a reasonable deduction based on the available intelligence. There is a 90% chance that Lieutenant Colonel Rosinandi has defected. Moreover, we cannot confirm Lieutenant Colonel Rosinandi's whereabouts, nor can we contact him via Den Den Mushi," Lieutenant General Tsuru said.

On the other end of the Den Den Mushi, Fleet Admiral Sengoku remained silent for a long time before continuing, "I'll have the Marine Headquarters issue a bounty, regardless of whether they die..."

After a pause, Fleet Admiral Sengoku continued, "Tsuru, try to capture them alive. In order to confirm the information about the Op-Op Fruit, try to capture them alive."

“I understand. There’s one more thing,” Lieutenant General Tsuru continued.

"What is it?" Marshal Zhan Guo asked, his usually dignified voice revealing an undisguised weariness.

"Captain Yarne..."

Before Vice Admiral Tsuru could finish speaking, a loud banging sound came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi, followed by the voice of Fleet Admiral Sengoku, which sounded like a furious lion.

"Could that bastard Yann have betrayed us too?"

“Sengoku, calm down. Captain Arn did not betray us; on the contrary, he has rendered meritorious service,” Lieutenant General Tsuru explained.

"Make meritorious contributions? This kid's attitude towards making meritorious contributions is like asking him to go to jail. What meritorious contributions can he make?" The Warring States Marshal's tone was full of doubt.

"Does killing Doflamingo count?" Vice Admiral Tsuru asked with a smile.

"Wait, Xiao He, are you kidding me?" Marshal Zhan Guo said, his lips twitching slightly.

Arne, who was always lazy and refused promotion, made great contributions; Corazon, who was kind-hearted and had a sense of justice, instead betrayed the Navy.

If it hadn't been Lieutenant General Tsuru who reported it, Marshal Sengoku would not have believed the news at all.

“I personally examined Doflamingo’s body and the battlefield. In addition, there were many pirate and naval surveillance ships on Minion Island, and I also witnessed the entire battle between Captain Yan and Doflamingo.”

After a pause, Lieutenant General Crane spoke solemnly.

"At this point, I am certain that Captain Yann killed Doflamingo independently. Now, all we need to do is wipe out the remnants of the Donquixote Family and ensure that Doflamingo did not leak the World Government's secrets to the family's executives. Then the Donquixote Family can be completely forgotten."

Hearing Lieutenant General Tsuru's words, Marshal Sengoku realized that he was not joking. After thinking about it carefully, he subconsciously asked a question.

"Is Yann alright?"

"He was critically injured and on the verge of death, but he has been rescued and there shouldn't be any major problems afterward," Lieutenant General Tsuru replied.

"That bastard really dared to do that! Has he really improved?" Marshal Zhanguo said with a mix of pride and anger.

"Let's leave it at that for now. I will personally report the matter of the Op-Op Fruit to the Five Elders. Tsuru, you've dealt with the remaining troubles in the North Blue, so it's about time you returned to Marineford."

"it is good."

Lieutenant General Tsuru responded, then got up and walked to the ward where Arn was, glancing at Arn who was in a coma from afar.

Just as Lieutenant General He was about to turn and leave, a thought inexplicably came to him, and he casually asked the army doctor a question.

"By the way, was there anything unusual during Captain Yann's treatment?"

"Abnormal? What's abnormal?" the military doctor asked, puzzled.

“It’s similar to using techniques like giving up one’s life to disguise oneself,” Lieutenant General Tsuru said.

"No, Captain Yan's injuries are confirmed to be caused by external force, consistent with the characteristics of injuries caused by the String-String Fruit. I will write a report on the treatment process later, which Lieutenant General Tsuru can refer to himself," the medic replied with certainty.

"Yes, keep a close eye on Captain Yern's injuries..."

Lying in the hospital room, Yann showed no outward change, but inwardly he couldn't help but feel relieved.

"Sure enough, besides me, there were other old hands in the navy who also used 'life return' to cheat and shirk their duties, which even caught Vice Admiral Tsuru's attention."

"Pah, you despicable naval colleague, you almost ruined my plans."

[Chapter 127 The Days of Feeding]

Five days later, Swallow Island.

"Ah~~"

Lying on the hospital bed, Aon opened her mouth, and Gion couldn't help but roll her eyes at Aon before picking up a spoon and feeding Aon nutritious porridge.

Y'en chewed for a moment, his eyes lighting up slightly, and praised, "It tastes really good, Gion. The chefs on your warship are quite skilled."

Gion's face flushed slightly, and her long, beautiful legs shifted unnaturally to ease her shyness, while she spoke calmly on the surface.

"I cooked this."

Did you cook this?

Upon hearing this, Aon, who was displaying a somewhat sickly and frail beauty, immediately broke into a bright and surprised smile, leaving Gion somewhat stunned.

"If that's the case, then I need to drink more; I can't let Gion's kindness go to waste."

"I didn't mean anything by it. I was just bored, so I cooked some porridge to pass the time," Gion replied calmly.

"That's wonderful, Gion. I never imagined that your swordsmanship was so superb, and your cooking skills are also so outstanding. Whoever marries you in the future will be so lucky."

Although the words were slightly exaggerated, when they came from the mouth of the handsome man wearing glasses and half-reclining on the hospital bed, Gion felt not disgust but rather unusual sincerity.

“No way…” Gion retorted weakly.

Ya'en chuckled, admiring the picturesque scene before him.

A spirited yet alluring female swordswoman, bathed in sunlight streaming through the window, with strands of hair falling across her beautiful face, sat beside the hospital bed, carefully feeding the patient with a spoon.

What's most endearing is that even though Gion's face still has many gray and black marks left by the smoke, indicating how messy she was in the kitchen, she acts as if it's nothing.

Suddenly, Yan couldn't help but chuckle softly.

"Pfft~"

"What are you laughing at?" Gion asked, somewhat puzzled, and also a little embarrassed and annoyed.

Ya'en shook his head and said, "No, I just didn't expect our date on Swallow Island to start in this way."

Upon hearing this, Gion couldn't help but show a hint of guilt on her face as she spoke.

"It's my fault. I didn't consider the possibility of Doflamingo attacking you, which led to your serious injury."

"Cough cough..."

Yaen coughed weakly a few times, then raised his voice slightly and spoke with righteous indignation.

"No, it's not your fault. As a naval officer, I couldn't possibly have noticed the Donquixote Family's presence when passing through Minion Island and turned a blind eye. That would be unjust."

Immediately, the admiration in Gion's eyes grew even stronger as she looked at Aon.

Afterwards, in a harmonious and warm atmosphere, Gion successfully completed the feeding and then left the ward to clean up the dishes.

Within an inconspicuous canary standing by the window, a soundproof barrier opened and enveloped the ward, from which a calm female voice rang out.

"Brother Yan, when you're planning your wedding, remember to have a table set up in the castle too."

……

Ya'en.

Immediately, Yann quickly explained, saying...

"Robin, don't you understand that Gion is spying on me? With injuries of that severity, I should be unable to move at this point, so I had no choice."

“I think Brother Yan is really enjoying himself,” Robin’s voice rang out.

Immediately, the corner of Ya'en's mouth twitched involuntarily, and he couldn't help but reflect inwardly. "Is it really that obvious?"

After all, you can't blame Yaon for this.

Given that the military doctor advised that Arn needed to rest and recuperate, it was not convenient for him to stay on the warship. Therefore, Vice Admiral Tsuru arranged for Arn to recuperate on Swallow Island, which is not far from Minion Island.

Furthermore, Gion was arranged to stay on Swallow Island to take care of Aon.
