Chapter 681 Borrowing a Knife!

"Tsugikoku Yoriichi and Zefa came to Marinford more often?"

After hearing the report from the signalman, Zhan Guo stood up from his desk after a brief pause, his face full of solemnity.

The report on Tsugakuni Yoriichi had just been reported to him not long ago, and in such a short time, Tsugakuni Yoriichi and Zephyr were about to arrive at the Naval Headquarters.

This also means that the other party headed directly towards Marinford after leaving Fishman Island.

For a moment, Zhan Guo didn't know what the purpose of these two people coming to Marinford was. After quickly calming down, he slowly sat back in his chair, lowered his head slightly and began to think.

Raise an army to hold him accountable?!
Probably not. If this was their purpose, Magellan and his crew would not have been able to return to the naval headquarters safely.

Even if Zefa is sentimental, he probably won't let go of a figure of Magellan's level.

If the new navy really intends to take action against the headquarters of the navy, admiral-level combat forces like Magellan must be dealt with first at all costs.

Since Zefa and Jiguoyuan are not here to cause trouble, then.
A sharp light flashed in Zhan Guo's eyes, and the solemn expression on his face disappeared. After a brief thought, he spoke to the signalman in front of him:

"Go, ask Lieutenant General Tsuru and General Borsalino to come to my office."

As he spoke, Zhan Guo's face had regained its composure. His calm look also helped the somewhat nervous signalman quickly calm down.

"Yes!"

After responding, the young navy man quickly left the office.

And not long after he left the office, Warring States' adjutant, Brannew, who now participated in the top-level decision-making with the rank of major general, also knocked on the door of Warring States' office in a hurry.

Although Brannew was only a major general and his personal strength was not outstanding in the Navy Headquarters, he became the right-hand man of Sengoku with his outstanding mind.

Among the middle-aged generation of the navy, there are many generals who are actually very capable, but when they reach the position of "general", what is required is not only personal strength, but also brains.

Brannew was entrusted with important tasks by Zhan Guo in many matters. He would organize every high-level meeting on behalf of Zhan Guo. Due to the convenience of his position, Brannew also had a very wide network of relationships in the Navy Headquarters.

The speed at which he obtained information was even faster than that of the Warring States Period.

"Marshal, Tsugikoku Yoshiichi has appeared!"

"He and former Navy Chief Instructor Zefa are approaching the harbor by boat."

As a major general, his ability to control his emotions was much stronger than that of the signalman before. Although his face was calm, his hurried tone also revealed his inner emotions.

"I already know, Brannew." Zhan Guo did not blame Brannew for breaking into his office. After all, such a big thing had happened, and it was not surprising that a "young man" like Brannew could not hold his temper.

"You already knew that?!"

"So Marshal, what should we do?"

"They come to our Navy Headquarters at this time, I'm afraid."

Brannew's heart was full of worries, but he was not worried at all that Yoriichi Tsugakuni and Zephyr would come to the Marine Headquarters to kill people.

He knew both of these former colleagues well enough to know that they were not that kind of people.

But
No matter what the purpose of their coming to the Marine Headquarters was, it was not good news for the existing officers of the Marine Headquarters.

Every time Tsugikuni Yoriichi appears, it brings great turmoil.

Although Brannew knew that the Celestial Dragons were now weak, the World Government had been able to stand on this world for 800 years. He did not believe that an organization with such a foundation would be easily disintegrated by the New Navy.

Under such circumstances, it would be best for the Navy Headquarters not to have too close contact with the new navy.

Brannew's idea is actually somewhat similar to Ace's. It is better for the Navy Headquarters to stabilize itself and consolidate its own strength. If possible, it should not intervene in the struggle between the New Navy and the World Government.

Only in this way can the Navy Headquarters ensure its own safety and continue to exert influence on the four seas so that the four seas can restore their former peace.

There is no guarantee that you will gain any benefit from being on good terms with the new navy, and being at odds with it is even more likely that your strength will be weakened.

The best way is actually to avoid contact with the new navy and maintain relative independence, which is most suitable for their naval headquarters.

However, Zhan Guo’s ideas were obviously different from theirs.

The Warring States period understood very well that no single force could remain immune to the general trend of the times.

Whether it is the World Government or the New Navy, they will not ignore the power of the level of the Navy Headquarters.

The Celestial Dragons will find a way to tie the Marine Headquarters to their chariots no matter what. After all, the Celestial Dragons now have fewer and fewer cards in their hands, and the Marine Headquarters is one of the "weapons" they can use.

And with the return of Yoshiichi Tsugakuni, the new navy will return to its peak and will try to expand their influence to the whole world just like they did in the past.

For Tsugakuni Yoriichi and Zephyr, an organization like the Marine Headquarters is obviously a very good handle. If the power of the Marine Headquarters can be completely "digested", the new navy will save a lot of energy and will probably be able to exert its influence in every corner of the world within 3-5 years.

Like the World Government, the Navy Headquarters has stood in this world for hundreds of years.

During this century, the nautical charts and cultural data from around the world that the Navy Headquarters had mastered were far beyond the reach of emerging forces like the New Navy, and this was also what the New Navy lacked.

Tsugikuni Yoriichi's goal is not just to eliminate the Celestial Dragons. He also hopes to use the "shell" of the navy to completely replace the World Government and form a true rule.

Sengoku has always been very clear about Tsugumi Yoriichi's thoughts and knew the dream buried deep in his heart. Or perhaps it would be better to use the word "ambition" to describe Tsugumi Yoriichi's thoughts?
Rule the world—

Well. Isn't this exactly the idea that every villain of every generation has?

Decades ago, the Rocks Pirates were called the King of the World. Was their goal just to win over a group of powerful pirates and play "Pirate House" in the New World?

If Rocks had not failed in the Valley of the Gods, it is possible that the Rocks Pirates would be the biggest rival of the World Government and their Marine Headquarters today.

And now, the new navy created by Kuniyoshi Ichi is a far more troublesome existence than the Rocks Pirates.

The combat effectiveness of the new navy is even better than that of the Rocks Pirates back then, and the "leader" Tsugikoku Yoriichi is more ambitious than Rocks. And unlike the "pirate group" like Rocks that has no mass base, from the very beginning, Tsugikoku Yoriichi has put on a coat of "justice" for his new navy, and their new navy is far more acceptable to the general public than the Rocks Pirates.

If you ask ordinary people around the world whether they are willing to live in Ten Thousand Nations under the rule of the new navy, I am afraid that countless people will answer "yes".

In the years since Tsugakuin Yoshiichirō was absent, the cooperation between Morganse and the New Navy has remained close. Through its propaganda machine, the New Navy has also been letting people all over the world understand what it is like to live in the Ten Thousand Nations.

After these years of hard work, the new navy has a good reputation worldwide, and the new navy's presence is most prominent in countries where the lives of their citizens are the most difficult and harsh.

Although Zhan Guo held a high position, he also understood this point deeply.

The "righteousness" of the New Navy is the hardest shell of this organization, and even their naval headquarters finds it difficult to break through.

And it is precisely because Sengoku understands the status of the new navy in the minds of the people that he feels that Tsugakuni Yoshiichi's plan has the possibility of success.

As long as Yoriichi Tsugakuni can suppress the Celestial Dragons, it is not impossible for the New Navy and the Marine Headquarters to reunite.

He, Sengoku, has a strong control over the headquarters, and Tsugaru Kuniyoshi also has a strong control over the new navy. As long as the top leaders reach a consensus, the merger of the two departments will not only not cause turmoil in the world again, but will be able to end the so-called Great Pirate Era in a very short time.

When he thought of this, Zhan Guo's heart began to beat faster.

The merging of the two parts to end the Great Pirate Era was just a matter of convenience. What was more important for Sengoku was that he could use this great trend to wipe out the Celestial Dragons in the Holy Land in one fell swoop! ! !
There is nothing more important than this matter, and nothing that concerns Zhan Guo more.

"Brannew, you're just in time."

"Lead the generals stationed at the headquarters and have them lead their troops and gather at the harbor."

"I would like to see what Tsugikuni Yoriichi and Zephyr are doing at the Marine Headquarters?"

Although he had the idea of ​​making use of the new navy in his heart, when the words came to his lips, he had different thoughts.

When Branny first heard what Sengoku said, he thought that Sengoku was planning to gather troops to fight against the new navy. After thinking about it carefully, he could understand that Tsugikuni Yoriichi and Zephyr were wanted criminals after all, and it was natural for the Navy Headquarters to be wary of their arrival.

Therefore, Brannew did not think much about it. After bowing, he hurriedly left the office to deliver the message.

Not long after Brannew left the office, Lieutenant General Tsuru and General Borsalino arrived at Warring States' office one after another.

Later, when Borsalino walked into the office, he saw Lieutenant General Tsuru who was already sitting on the sofa. After the two looked at each other, they saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.

They both had already heard the news, but He understood what his old comrade had been thinking, while Borsalino couldn't understand why Sengoku had called him to his office at this time.

Warn yourself?!
After sitting down, Zhan Guo closed the door himself and held a small meeting with only the three of them.

This small meeting lasted only a few minutes, and when Borsalino left Sengoku's office, his usual nonchalant expression was no longer on his face.

Borsalino was in a complicated mood as he was walking back. He had never thought that Zhan Guo would come to him to talk about those things.
"That's amazing, Marshal Sengoku."

Muttering to himself, Borsalino, who was standing in the corridor, also stopped for a moment, turned his head and looked in the direction of Zhan Guo's office, his tone quite emotional.

The sharp alarm sounded throughout Marinford.

The troops stationed on the island began to be mobilized on a large scale, but strangely, not all troops received the mobilization orders.

For example, Ace and Sabo were ordered to stay on standby and were not allowed to leave the training base without orders.

The same thing also happens in naval schools and some grassroots units that bring together a large number of young people.

All the generals above the rank of major general in Marinford, without exception, received the transfer order and gathered at the port of Marinford.

Looking at the ships heading towards the harbor from afar.

Far sea.

The speed of the Dawn warship has been reduced to the minimum. In order not to make its arrival appear too aggressive, Yuichiro also let the ship approach slowly.

Although this gave the Navy Headquarters enough time to react and allowed Sengoku to mobilize a large number of troops within the headquarters, Jigoku Yuan still did not change his order as he looked at the increasing number of people gathering at the Marinford Harbor.

He and Zefa came to the Marine Headquarters this time not to start a war, nor did they have any intention of starting a dispute with the Marine Headquarters.

As for what attitude Marinford would take towards their new navy, Yoriichi didn't care. If Sengoku could sit down and chat with Zephyr and reminisce about the past, Tsugikuni Yoriichi wouldn't mind pouring tea and water on the side.

If Sengoku wants to take this opportunity to attack them, that's fine. Tsugakuni Yoshiichi is also confident that he can make the Navy Headquarters pay the price they deserve.

To be honest, Yunyi hopes that Sengoku can be more reasonable and not let his sword be stained with too much blood.
"Teacher Zefa, look, Marshal Zhan Guo has made quite a scene to welcome you!"

Looking at the crowd gathered at the harbor, Jiguo Yuanyi sighed in his heart, but he joked to Zefa beside him with a calm expression.

Hearing this, Zefa's face became solemn, and his expression was not as relaxed as that of Yuichiro Tsuchikuni.

Judging from the situation, Zhan Guo's reaction to this visit to the headquarters seems to be a bit excessive.
When he was the chief instructor at the Navy Headquarters, he also represented the Navy Headquarters to visit the headquarters of the new navy at that time - Thunder God Island.

At that time, the new navy did not put up such a hostile attitude in response to his arrival.

He had worked for the navy for so many years, but now that he had left, his feelings for the navy had gone cold so quickly. He was being treated as a great enemy, and Zefa felt more or less uncomfortable.

on the coast.

Zhan Guo led a group of generals and stood on a tower, looking at the new navy that was getting closer and closer, his eyes becoming more and more determined.

It is not an easy task to achieve the merger of the two departments. To make this happen, internal cleansing must be done thoroughly. However, this kind of thing cannot be done by him as the Admiral of the Navy.

The Navy Headquarters must move forward, but it cannot leave no way out.

And the Zhan Guo Dynasty has already thought of a way to have the best of both worlds!
