Office of the Admiral.

Sengoku had to recruit Akihara Kagura in advance and ordered him to rush to the Capital of Seven Waters immediately to cooperate with the CP9 department to capture Nico Robin of the Straw Hat Pirates.

This kind of thing...

It’s quite suitable for Akihara Kagura to do.

Because when Akihara Kagura was in Alabasta, she and Aokiji spared the Straw Hats to avoid the fate of Garp, his old friend from the Warring States Period, who lost his grandson in his later years.

"This mission is extremely important."

When the Warring States Period issued the order, he specifically mentioned the matter of the Five Old Stars: "This is what the Five Old Stars told us. We must capture Nicole Robin alive, because the Five Old Stars intend to use the remaining archeology of Nicole Robin O'Hara."

As a scholar, overthrow the pseudo-history of Alabasta..."

"..."

Akihara Kagura frowned.

The development of these things is often unexpected.

This was something Akihara Kagura didn't know. He didn't expect that the World Government had declined to this point. His ability to do things was even worse than that of his old boss Danzo!

Akihara Kagura himself has personally created three major events against the Tianlong people. Three of the five old stars have died under his control. As a result, the remaining two began to deal with the first one.

The aftermath of the events in Alabasta...

"That…"

"What should I do during this mission?"

Akihara Kagura looked at Buddha's Warring States Period and had to remind the navy marshal: "We colluded with the Konoha Pirates in order to overthrow the rule of the Tianlong people..."

"..."

What a good question!

Sengoku was silent for a while and couldn't answer. Sometimes he couldn't tell whether he was a naval marshal under the World Government or a rebel who colluded with the Konoha Pirates. This was why he felt that his mind was getting more and more confused.

The reason why it’s not enough…

after all…

Nowadays, every naval order issued by the Warring States Period requires a lot of consideration, including how to fend off the Five Old Stars, how to preserve naval strength, and how not to hinder the gradual collapse of the Tianlong people...

"this…"

Warring States closed his palms, put down the documents in his hands, and whispered: "The original O'Hara incident was done by the navy..."

"Even today, I think it was a necessary price to pay for maintaining world stability. A group of scholars ignored the overall situation in order to explore the truth..."

"but…"

"Some mistakes are just mistakes."

"Whether this mission is to make up for the mistakes of the past or to eliminate the omissions of the Navy, it is up to you. Just treat it as your graduation assessment..."

Warring States raised his eyes and directly handed over this difficult task to Akihara Kagura, saying in a deep voice: "I have only two requirements. One, I must not live up to the name of justice I carry; second, I must

We have to take the overall situation into consideration..."

"Are these the only two requirements?"

Akihara Kagura moved her fingers.

"Only these two requirements."

Warring States nodded seriously and solemnly.

This kind of thing...

Often you can't have both.

Generally speaking, for the sake of the overall situation, some small people must be sacrificed.

Sengoku already knew everything in his heart. He knew that Nicole Robin was innocently implicated in the O'Hara incident, but she would still become a victim for the sake of the overall situation.

"good."

Akihara Kagura nodded slowly.

Compared with the bosses in the past who expected him to implement the will of fire and the will of roots, Sengoku's boss's requirements are actually very simple...

that is…

A little strange...

After others were promoted, they went to deal with powerful pirates.

Akihara Kagura recalled how she joined the Navy. She became a third-class Marine and wore a straw hat in the East China Sea. She was promoted to a second lieutenant and still wore a straw hat. Now that she has become a vice admiral, why is she still wearing a straw hat?

never mind…

It's normal to hit a dozen straw hats.

Akihara Kagura left Marinevando and rushed to Judiciary Island on a warship through the ocean currents of the Gate of Justice. She planned to get information from Judiciary Island and then rush to the Seven Waters Capital.

The city of seven waters.

This is a city built on water.

Because this floating city has established sea trains that connect it to many other islands and is located at a transportation hub, commercial trade is extremely prosperous.

Other than that…

The shipbuilding industry of the Seven Waters Capital is also one of the reasons for its prosperity.

The ancient weapon Pluto was built in the Seven Waters City, and the ship of the Pirate King Goldo Roger was also built by Tom, the world's best shipbuilder in the Seven Waters City.

Unfortunately…

Tom also paid the price with his life for building ships for the Pirate King.

However, Tom built the sea train, and his name still affects the Seven Waters Capital to this day. The current mayor of the Seven Waters Capital is Tom's former apprentice Espagu. At the same time, Espagu is also the seventh in the Seven Waters Capital.

The owner of Carrera, a shipyard.

Carrera Corporation.

The Straw Hat Pirates arrived here.

The reason why this group of pirates came here is very simple. After their ship, the Golden Merry, passed by Sky Island and the group, the entire ship became tattered. In order to be able to sail further, the Straw Hat Pirates had to

Come to the Capital of Seven Waters to repair the Golden Merli.

The price of repairing ships here is very high. Fortunately, the Straw Hats got 200 million beli worth of gold on the empty island, so they should be able to get the money...

However…

Kaku, the repairman of Carrera Company, told them the bad news. The keel of the Golden Merli was fractured, and there was no way to repair it no matter how much money was spent...

This puts the Straw Hats into a deadlock.

Because the Golden Merli is their partner, carrying them all the way from the East China Sea to this point, no one can give any reason to give up the Golden Merli and change to another ship.

at this time…

Luffy, the captain of the ship, took the initiative to assume this responsibility and asked his companions on the ship to change to another ship. Their voyage could not end here.

It’s obvious…

This immediately caused Usopp's dissatisfaction.

After all, this Golden Merli was given to them by the butler of Usopp's childhood sweetheart's family, and they didn't want to give up this ship no matter what...

But…

Usopp had no new plan and was just sulking on his own.

Just when the Straw Hats were at a stalemate here, no one noticed that there were a pair of eyes peering at them in the darkness, and someone was eyeing their group of pirates.

CP9.

A secret service directly under the World Government.

This group of agents has been lurking in the Capital of Seven Waters, trying to find the blueprints for the ancient weapon Pluto for the world government, but they have never found anything...

When this group of agents planned to evacuate, the World Government gave them a new mission: they must capture Nico Robin of the Straw Hats alive.

Bruno's Bar.

This is the bar base opened by CP9 agent Bruno.

A group of employees of Carrera Company gathered here, such as Kalifa, the boss and secretary of Carrera Company, Kaku, the boatman, Rob Luqi, and perhaps the mayor of the Seven Waters City did not even think about his subordinates.

There are many secret agents and spies of the World Government.

"Let us capture Nico Robin alive..."

Kalifa held up her glasses, her eyes were quite serious: "However, Nico Robin lives among the Straw Hats. The captain of the Straw Hats, Monkey D. Luffy, has a bounty of 230 million Baileys.

, pirate hunter Sauron, has a bounty of 160 million beli, their strength is not simple..."

"I'll deal with Straw Hat."
