Chapter 680 People who have awakened their Conqueror's Haki!
Zhan Guo revealed his true feelings in front of Ace, and his words made Ace's pupils tremble.
He didn't expect that Sengoku, the admiral of the navy, actually had such an idea in his mind. Before coming, he had already anticipated that Sengoku would have various countermeasures, but he never expected that Sengoku actually planned to stand on the side of the new navy.
I'm afraid no one could imagine that Sengoku, as a naval marshal, would actually support the so-called "rebels" of the new navy.
Of course, in Ace's logic, he never considered the New Navy as a rebel. But even so, he understood that the conflict between the New Navy and the Navy Headquarters was very deep. This conflict was caused by the natural positions of these two forces.
The Navy Headquarters, which was established with the support of the World Government, has its own natural position, while the new navy established by Yoriichi Tsugakuni by providing shelter to ordinary countries in the New World has extremely strong autonomy.
The New Navy and the World Government are two forces that will inevitably not be able to coexist peacefully in their fight for more territory and population.
Ace is no longer a child. His growth and learning over the years have allowed him to see the true nature of the New Navy and the World Government.
In fact, strictly speaking, there is no fundamental difference between the New Navy and the World Government.
Although Tsugokuni Yoshiichi's new navy provided protection to the countries in the New World and protected them from pirates, they also gained benefits from the citizens of the protected countries, using the fruits of the labor of ordinary people to support the team.
The New Navy's source of income is no different from that of the World Government. The only difference may be that the New Navy has its own port, and the profits they obtain from the people are reinvested in production, allowing other people on the island to also enjoy the dividends of development.
As for the World Government, the benefits they obtain from ordinary people are not only used to maintain the normal operation of the Navy Headquarters and CP agents, but are mostly used to support the extravagant lives of the Celestial Dragons.
The logic behind the formation of the New Navy and the World Government is the same, but the difference in those in power leads to huge differences in the external performance of these two forces.
The core demand of the World Government is to provide for the Holy Land so that the descendants of the Twenty Kings can reproduce.
The core demand of the new navy is to eliminate pirates and at the same time bring the territories and citizens under the rule of the World Government under its jurisdiction.
Perhaps Yoriichi Tsugakuni, who established the New Navy, did so for the so-called "world peace", but as the New Navy organization gradually expanded, at this stage, the New Navy's attack on the World Government is actually for its own survival.
Today's new navy is no longer the same as the new navy back then. Under the huge organizational structure, too many people depend on the new navy for their lives.
Once the new navy falls and Tsugikoku Yoshiichi fails, countless people will lose their jobs, and it will even be difficult to survive on this turbulent sea.
If Tsugakuni Yoshiichi succeeds, everyone who depends on the new navy system will benefit. Therefore, at this time, the development of the new navy is no longer controlled by Tsugakuni Yoshiichi. On the contrary, this huge organization will push Tsugakuni Yoshiichi to move forward continuously.
Until one day, there are no more enemies in front of them, and Tsugikuni Yoriichi will be crowned as an emperor by those people.
This is the law of development of things. Young Ace has long understood this through learning.
Therefore, he now has no filters towards the New Navy or the World Government, and the way he thinks about problems is getting closer to that of Sengoku and Garp back then.
There is no absolute stability in this world, and relative peace is the best outcome for ordinary people.
In his mind, even if the New Navy really succeeded in replacing the World Government and became the manager and rule maker of this world, perhaps when people like Tsugaru Yoshiichirō were still around, the country would be peaceful and people would be able to live and work in peace without worrying about this or that problem.
However, when the generation of Tsugumi Yoshiichirō passes away, no one can predict in which direction the descendants will take the New Navy organization.
Because of this, compared to the unknown future of the New Navy, the World Government that has stood in this world for 800 years has become the one that Ace can trust more.
Indeed, the World Government has many, many problems, and the Celestial Dragons are extremely bad in both their personal conduct and their actions.
However, we have to admit that it is precisely because of the existence of the world government that the world can remain relatively stable.
It is true that there are some people living in dire straits on such a vast land, but it is also undeniable that there are still some ordinary people living ordinary lives.
In the Goa Kingdom in the East China Sea where he, Luffy and others once lived, even some people lived in small places like Windmill Village, but they could still live their lives in peace.
It's not just the Goa Kingdom. How many of Luffy's companions chose to go to sea because life was really unsustainable? !
How many of the people living in the Sabaody Archipelago have actually suffered oppression from the Celestial Dragons? Compared with the number of people who died from persecution by pirates, this number is probably dwarfed.
With this idea in mind, Ace actually hopes that the New Navy and the World Government can coexist.
Isn't it good like now? The New Navy commands the New World, and the World Government commands the first half of the Grand Line. In this way, a relative peace is maintained. Under the threat of the New Navy, even the Celestial Dragons will be relatively restrained.
in contrast
If a war breaks out between the New Navy and the World Government, no matter who wins or loses, too many people will be affected, and the world will be in chaos again.
"Marshal Sengoku, is there no way to make the New Navy and the World Government stop?"
"The World Government controls the four seas, and the New Navy controls the New World."
"If this situation can be kept in balance, wouldn't it be more beneficial to ordinary people?!"
"You said that our Navy Headquarters will stand on the side of justice, on the side that is more beneficial to ordinary people."
"Your words also show that you are somewhat biased towards the new navy."
"But after our Navy Headquarters completely sided with the New Navy, can you really be sure that the New Navy can always do the right thing?!"
"Can the future really be predicted?"
Ace didn't actually question Sengoku's current decision, he just had some concerns about the future.
Although he is the son of Pirate King Roger, Ace's thoughts and actions are completely opposite to Roger, who is quite extreme.
Perhaps it is precisely because Ace is Roger's son and is well aware of his father's sins that he has become the "conservative" he is today, no longer hoping that the world pattern will undergo major changes again.
He had some fear of the unknown.
In other words, he has become desensitized to rights and has long stopped believing in so-called authority.
Even for a well-known spokesperson for "justice" like Tsugakuni Yoriichi, he still has reservations. Ace is well aware of the kindness that Tsugakuni Yoriichi and his new navy have shown him, but this does not mean that Ace will firmly stand on the side of the new navy.
He is already an adult and has his own independent perspective when looking at the world.
"The New Navy controls the New World, and the World Government controls the four seas. Is this how it will continue?!"
Upon hearing Ace's idea, Sengoku couldn't help but be stunned. Just as Ace thought that he, a navy man, would firmly stand on the side of the World Government, Sengoku also thought that Ace, a boy who had received the favor of Yoriichi Tsugumi, would be like Borsalino and others and lean towards the side of the New Navy.
But I didn't expect Ace to say such a thing.
But soon, Zhan Guo started laughing:
"Hahahahaha!"
"Is this what you had in mind? Ace!"
"He's just a little kid after all, and he's really naive! Hahaha!" Zhan Guo laughed out loud, perhaps because he was so relieved, there were even some tears in the corners of his eyes.
Under Ace's somewhat puzzled gaze, Zhan Guo's laughter gradually faded:
"But for a kid of your age, being able to think of this is already very impressive."
"Very good, Ace, your thoughts are not limited by your background."
"It's good that you can look at this matter objectively and not blindly lean towards the New Navy because of the favor that Tsugakuin Yoshiichi showed you."
"You are indeed a man who can awaken Conqueror's Haki. I was right about you. You can become the real pillar of our Marine Headquarters!"
There was a smile in Zhan Guo's tone. There was no one else in the office. Facing Ace, some of Zhan Guo's words were quite explicit.
"Ace, you are right about one thing. If the New Navy and the World Government can maintain relative independence, with one controlling the New World and the other controlling the four seas, such a stable world structure will definitely be conducive to peace."
"But, such a thing is impossible."
"Whether it's Yunyi or the Holy Land, they won't tolerate each other's existence."
"You don't understand Yoriichi, let alone the Celestial Dragons."
"They are like water and fire. There is no way they can coexist."
"You and Sabo are actually very lucky. During your growth process, the Navy Headquarters protected you very well and did not let you go through what Yoriichi went through."
"If... If Yoriichi could coexist with the Celestial Dragons, then he wouldn't have killed so many Celestial Dragons with his own hands, and he wouldn't have left the Marine Headquarters."
"He is not the kind of person who can tolerate the existence of stains."
"What you said is simply impossible to do."
When saying this, there was a hint of reminiscence in Sengoku's eyes, as if he was recalling the time when Tsugakuni Yoriichi was still in the Marine Headquarters.
The Navy Headquarters during that period was truly extremely glorious. The old comrades were still in their prime. Although the Navy was facing a painful period of transition, first Sakaski and Borsalino took up the banner of the Mesozoic era, and then there were young leaders like Tsugakuni Yoshiichi and Kuzan.
It even attracted many outstanding young people to join the navy.
At that time, Sengoku even imagined that after his generation retired, the Navy Headquarters would definitely reach its true peak under the leadership of Tsugakuni Yoriichi and his generation, and completely end the so-called Great Pirate Era.
But
The accident happened too quickly.
Just an accidental encounter between Yoshiichi Tsugumi and the Celestial Dragons' fleet led Yoshiichi Tsugumi and the Marine Headquarters to different paths.
Perhaps for everyone who awakens the Conqueror's Haki, life will not be a smooth journey.
Whether it was Long or Yuichiro Tsugumi back then, they were both that kind of people.
Even Ace, who is standing in front of him now, with his personality, if he meets the Celestial Dragons that Yoshiichi Tsugumi met back then, he may not be able to control his temper.
The Celestial Dragons that Ace now understands are cowering in the holy land and not daring to come down easily were not like this back then.
The reason why these Celestial Dragons have become what they are now is because Tsugakuni Yoriichi’s sword is sharp enough!
"Ace, your idea is very good. I will seriously consider it."
"Although it's a little unrealistic, our Navy Headquarters can indeed work in this direction."
"As for you, you should prepare well for entering the new world."
"No matter how the relationship between the World Government and the New Navy develops, those in the New Navy will not attack the ordinary navy without reason, so these things should not bother your generation."
At this point in the conversation, Sengoku no longer wanted to have a deep conversation with Ace.
The two of them have different levels of understanding of the world, and it is impossible for them to reach a consensus. Zhan Guo also used these words to evade Ace.
When Ace heard what Sengoku said, he nodded with a heavy expression.
He was not so arrogant as to think that his ideas were definitely right and that Zhan Guo must listen to him. Getting such a response from Zhan Guo actually showed that Zhan Guo really valued his ideas and opinions and did not treat him as a kid.
Ace left, and the office door closed after Ace left.
Zhan Guo slowly stood up, walked to the windowsill, looked at the night view of Marinford Harbor, with a smile on his face.
There are indeed too many unknowns in the future, but Zhan Guo feels that everything is moving in a good direction.
Yoriichi Tsugikuni has reappeared, and the revenge of Sora Ayaka, Garp, Roca and others can be avenged through him; Nika has awakened, and Luffy has done something that no one has done in nearly 800 years; Ace is no longer completely constrained by his background and has his own independent thoughts. It only takes a few years of experience for the navy to have a successor.
All the events that have occurred indicate that the buried prophecy may be true.
Sengoku doesn't know whether Joy Boy can save the world, but what he does know is that the World Government's most powerful enemy has returned.
Regardless of whether Tsugakukoku Yoriichi succeeds or not, with him charging ahead, the World Government probably won't have time to care about Luffy.
I don’t know whether Luffy can grow up successfully and beat the drum of liberation in the holy land.
This night is destined to be sleepless.
Just a few days later, one afternoon, a sharp alarm sounded in Malinford.
Everyone heard the alarm, and those who were busy stopped their work and quickly gathered towards the dock.
This is an alert for the mobilization of the entire army, which means an enemy attack.
In the distant sea of Marinford, a warship was rapidly approaching the headquarters naval port.
Yuichi Tsugikuni leaned on the railing at the bow, letting the sea breeze caress his cheeks.
Beside him, Zephyr stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the Marine Headquarters that appeared in his sight, with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.
The two people standing at the bow were also seen clearly by the lookout of the Navy Headquarters and hurriedly left their posts to report to their superiors.
"Tsugumi Kuniichi and Chief Instructor Zephyr are approaching the Marine Headquarters by boat!!!"
The door of Zhan Guo's office was pushed open, and the signalman's words made Zhan Guo, who was behind the desk, stiffen.
Slowly raising his head, Zhan Guo seemed a little unconvinced, and asked in a serious tone:
"What did you say?!"
