His pupils shrank sharply into the shape of a needle, and the skin next to the cross-shaped black tattoo on his eyebrows seemed to be twisted into a lump because of astonishment, making the cross-shaped tattoo look gloomy and deep. He licked his dry lips and replied, "I understand, I will immediately catch up with the departing team and forget this matter forever. No, it should be said that I have never had any meeting or contact with the military of Alabasta."
Yarlin's pupils shrank into vertical lines and flashed with a cold light. He vaguely realized something, but the guess in his mind was still vague and he couldn't be sure. He pressed the tip of his tongue against the roof of his mouth and lowered his voice: "However, even if the military of Alabasta has not contacted the branch, they can eventually bypass us and pass the report to the Marine Headquarters."
"This is not something you should worry about. The headquarters will naturally deal with it. Colonel Yarlin, what you have to do is resolutely execute the order." The voice paused and said solemnly.
After Yarlin obeyed the order, the voice on the other end of the phone became gentle again, but the content of the words was like a hidden blade quietly piercing through, making Yarlin's heart suddenly jump to his throat and his face was gloomy.
"In view of the current chaotic situation in Alabasta, in order to ensure the local strength and safety of the Naval Branch, the headquarters will send some soldiers to support them. Of course, the soldiers who will go to support them will be divided into the Alabasta branch and will be at your disposal." Sengoku said to Den Den Mushi.
"Thank you for your concern." Yarlin bared his teeth and asked in a unchanged tone, "So, who is the commander of the reinforcements?"
Sengoku raised his eyelids and looked at Staff Officer Tsuru, and then repeated the other side's mouth word by word: "Colonel Smoker of East Blue!"
Sengoku hung up the phone and looked at Staff Officer Tsuru and said, "The Marine Colonel in Alabasta should be lying. He is deliberately delaying the military proposal of Alabasta for some purpose. However, his answer can be regarded as very cunning, and I can't find any big mistakes."
"The current situation in Alabasta is very sensitive, and it is not suitable to transfer Yarlin away. It will arouse the suspicion of the Alabasta military. In case they really bypass the Naval Branch and contact some radical generals in the headquarters, things will be completely out of control. However, judging from the past experience of this Colonel Yarlin in East Blue, he is not a Marine who blindly follows orders. Instead, he is more accustomed to making some outrageous moves and not leaving any evidence. The staff originally of Staff transferred him from East Blue to Alabasta in the hope of Sand Crocodile, but in the current situation, if he is allowed to act, he may cause trouble, so we need to transfer another candidate.... this is the safest way." Staff Officer Tsuru stared at Sengoku and suddenly changed the topic, "What is the military world government going to do with Alabasta?"
Sengoku's mouth was slightly down, and his expression was extremely deep and solemn. He glanced at Staff Officer Tsuru lightly, and Staff Officer Tsuru suddenly understood everything. She licked her lips indifferently and said faintly, "It's in line with the usual style of the Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars). This world is really rotten to the bone."
On the other side.
Yarlin's gums rubbed up and down, making a teeth-aching sound, and the breath bursting out from between his teeth was as cold as a knife. The temperature in the room seemed to have suddenly dropped by a few degrees. Transferring Smoker from East Blue to support him was a deliberate attempt to constrain all his actions in Alabasta.
He sat on the sofa with his head down and his eyes staring at the floor between his feet. There seemed to be countless black lines shuttling in his eyes. "The reaction of the headquarters is beyond my expectations. It seems that they don't want to cooperate with the Alabasta military. They don't intend to break free from the shackles of the world government … Not only that, but they are eager to get rid of all the responsibility. Is this because?"
His index finger gently rubbed his eyebrows. "And the level of this call is even more abnormal, which further confirms that the news of this matter has been blocked in the headquarters!"
Yarlin suddenly raised his head, and his eyes burst with light. Some of the clues in his mind seemed to be connected into a gradually clear picture. He got up and paced back and forth, muttering intermittently in his mouth: "Yes, that's it, the news has been blocked … trying to erase the whole thing, then the next step is …"
"Is it because something went wrong? This is not the reasonable response of the Marine Headquarters … Is it because the world government has known it one step ahead? … Haha ~ "
An extremely dangerous idea flashed in Yarlin's mind. He bit his lower lip fiercely, and his reason made him not intend to put this idea into practice. He turned to the wine cabinet, opened the mechanism to reveal the secret room behind it, and took out the single-line encrypted Den Den Mushi and dialed the connected number.
Gulu Gulu …
The phone was connected, and there was no sound, only a low breathing sound came through. Yarlin bit his lower teeth and said coldly: "I just received a clear order from the Marine Headquarters. All reports and related documents about the Alabasta military proposal have been ordered to be destroyed."
After a few seconds of silent breathing, there was a hoarse voice: "Oh!"
Yarlin grinned, revealing his white and neat teeth, and asked: "How did you do it?"
"After staying in the position of Shichibukai for a long time, there will always be some channels and energy to solve things that others seem unable to solve." The sound of smoking paused slightly, and the magnetic voice of the Sand Crocodile continued: "Some problems are solved perfectly, and Alabasta will eventually fall into my control. In fact, it is a step further."
"The Shichibukai system is a deformed political product forcefully promoted by the World Government!" Yarlin's heart floated a sentence. He curled his mouth and said in a unchanged tone: "Have you heard of White Hunter Smoker?"
Without waiting for Crocodile to answer, Yarlin asked and answered his own question: "The Marine Headquarters transferred him to reinforce the Naval Branch of Alabasta. Hey ~ I have dealt with him. He is the kind of hound with a very keen sense of smell. He is quite a difficult character, and he is full of justice. There is no possibility of being bribed. I am sure that he will bring a lot of trouble to both of us."
Alabasta's Naval Branch has been completely digested by him. Once Smoker steps into the Naval Branch, that guy will be able to detect the problem with his keen sense of smell.
"White Hunter Smoker, I have heard of this name!" Doflamingo listened to the voice coming from the Den Den Mushi, his scarlet tongue licked the corner of his mouth, and his right hand gently made a knife across his throat. Crocodile retracted his gaze, and his voice was gloomy and murderous: "I think it is necessary for us to meet …"
