Ross's appearance in the Sabaody Archipelago caused a shock in the Marine Headquarters, which shocked the entire Marine and made them confused about Ross's intentions.
Is Ross going to intervene in their war with Whitebeard?!
For Ross, Whitebeard is an enemy, but relatively speaking, Marine is more hostile and much stronger than the Whitebeard Pirates.
"Reporting to Fleet Admiral."
A Headquarters Rear Admiral hurried into the top office and reported to Fleet Admiral Sengoku: "The First Division Captain of the Ghost Hand Pirates has now returned to Totto Land, and the Second Division Captain Shiliew of the Rain is still in the Beast Pirates territory."
Hearing the Rear Admiral's report, Sengoku was a little relieved. It seemed that the Ghost Hand Pirates had just destroyed the Beast Pirates and it would be a hassle to take over their territory. In a short time, they should not be able to free up troops to intervene in the upcoming war.
"What about the other Captains?"
Aokiji sat on the sofa and asked in a low voice.
The Rear Admiral reported in a deep voice: "The Sixth Division Captain is missing, and the rest of the Captains have been found in the Country of Peace."
Sengoku pondered for a moment and said, "Don't be careless, let people continue to keep an eye on the movements of the Ghost Hand Pirates and report to me at any time."
"Yes!"
The Rear Admiral responded and left the office.
After he left, Aokiji raised his head slightly and said: "Since the Ghost Hand's troops are on the side of the Country of Peace, we can also be a little relieved. Only the Ghost Hand appeared here, we can still deal with it."
Sengoku also nodded.
As long as the Ghost Hand Pirates are not dispatched with their entire army, they will not be afraid of Ross alone. At most, they can divide two top combat powers to suppress Ross, and the remaining Battle power is still enough to deal with Whitebeard.
In fact, there is no need for the Marine Headquarters to gather forces to deal with the Whitebeard Pirates. The reason for the large gathering is that on the one hand, it is to make a complete plan, on the other hand, it is to prepare for other possible situations!
Alternate Admiral Momousagi and Tokikake, as well as Z, will not appear on the battlefield unless the Akagami (Red Hair) Pirates also appear and attack Marines.
The Three Admirals and Shichibukai alone are enough to deal with the Whitebeard Pirates.
… …
Sabaody Archipelago.
Somewhere in a tavern, Ross is sitting face to face with Rayleigh.
It is unknown whether the Straw Hats will get the news of Ace's execution and then participate in the War of the Best. Ross is not very interested. It doesn't matter if they go or not.
After chatting with Rayleigh for a while, he felt that they got along well, so he followed Rayleigh to the bar and drank and chatted.
"Mr. Raleigh …"
Just as Ross and Rayleigh were talking about New World, a voice came and they saw Keimi, a mermaid with short emerald green hair, coming in from outside.
After the incident, she had been hiding here.
"You must be Kemi."
Ross took a sip of wine and glanced sideways at Kemi.
Keimi noticed Ross and was slightly stunned, then he showed an unexpected look and said in amazement: "You are … Lord Ross?!"
As a mermaid of Fishmen Island, she naturally knew whose territory it was. Moreover, no one had dared to offend Fishmen Island all these years.
Even.
Ross's attitude towards Fishmen Island is far more than that of Whitebeard. Not to mention the things on the island, even if the mermaid is caught by the slave traders, the Ghost Hand Pirates will take action for her.
After a few times, no slave-trading organization dared to touch the mermaid. Today, it was purely because a few slave-traders found Keimi on land. They made up their minds and planned to run away after doing a job. Only then did the follow-up events occur.
"Well, do you know me?"
Ross looked at Keimi with a faint smile and said, "I should rarely go to Fishmen Island."
It would be strange if he didn't know her.
Keimi muttered in her heart, even if she was a little stupid mermaid, it was impossible for her to know nothing about a character like Ross, not to mention that Ross was the protector of Fishmen Island.
"You also had a part in saving Keimi today."
Ross saw that Keimi was a little cautious and looked at Rayleigh in front of him and laughed.
Rayleigh laughed and said, "Keimi and I have known each other for a long time. I was going to pretend to be a slave and blackmail the buyer. I didn't expect such a thing to happen. It was natural to save her."
Ross nodded and after touching his glass with Rayleigh, he said to Keimi standing there, "Sit down, don't be so restrained. By the way, how is Jinbe now?"
This sentence was also asked casually.
Jinbe has never given up his position as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. On the one hand, he is in contact with the government, on the other hand, he assists Whitebeard everywhere. On the other hand, as a powerful force that protects Fishmen Island, he is also in contact with the Ghost Hand Pirates.
But.
When the war is coming, it is simply impossible to step on three boats. The World Government used to turn a blind eye to it, but now it will never recognize it.
"Jinbe is against the government's war against Whitebeard."
Rayleigh took over the topic that Keimi didn't understand and said, "There are many islands under Whitebeard's protection. No matter who wins or loses in this war, the sea will not be calm. Jinbe wants to stop the war from happening, but he was locked up by the World Government. He should be in Impel Down."
This result was not unexpected by Ross.
But.
It is only a matter of time before the world is in chaos. Even if Whitebeard does not fall in the War of the Best, he is already 72 years old. How can he sit in the position of Yonkō (Four Emperors) for a long time.
Ross is only thirty-one years old now, and there is still a long way to go before aging, but Whitebeard has really touched the limits of his flesh and blood.
It can even be said.
It was the War of the Best that brought out the last afterglow of Whitebeard, so that Whitebeard would not die in bed because of injuries and illnesses.
If there was no War of the Best, with Whitebeard's deteriorating body, he might fall down in two or three years and wouldn't be able to get up.
"If Whitebeard loses, what are you going to do?"
Rayleigh stared at the bottle, his thoughts drifting as if he was talking to himself.
Ross calmly said, "I will take over his territory."
As soon as Whitebeard died, all the islands sheltered by Whitebeard were attacked by various pirates and dark forces, but this time, Ross has made several of his subordinate teams ready. If Whitebeard dies, they will take over all the territories.
"Then the sea is yours."
Rayleigh opened his mouth in a trance. Although he and Roger also swept the sea and suppressed Whitebeard and Golden Lion, they could not defeat Whitebeard and Golden Lion.
They can be defeated, but they can't be destroyed.
Today, Ross is already the strongest person in the sea, and the Ghost Hand Pirates are already the strongest pirate force, none of them are one of them.
Even if Whitebeard and Akagami (Red Hair) join forces, they may not be able to resist Ross's future offensive, not to mention that Whitebeard will most likely end his life in the Battle of the Best, and the remaining Akagami (Red Hair) Pirates will not be able to stop Ross.
Do as you please, do as you please.
This is the future of Totto Land.
Ross shook his head slightly and said in a leisurely tone, "Not yet, isn't there a mountain in front of us that no one has climbed for 800 years?"
"World Government?"
Rayleigh smiled faintly and said, "They won't be able to sit in that position for long. We are anxious about O 'Hara's matter, but the answer will be revealed one day."
"Unfortunately, I am not interested in history, I am only interested in creating the future."
Ross calmly took a sip of wine.
