One Piece: Kaido the Beast Playing House.

Chapter 1003 Respective arrangements

As dusk approached, Kaido and Lily boarded a speedboat and left the island. Before that, Kizaru and Fujitora had already left with a smile. There was no usual banquet after this negotiation because no one was in the mood to hold a banquet. Of course, the situation on the scene did not allow them to hold a banquet.

"The negotiations went smoothly. Although many parts were blurred, at least we have reached an agreement on dealing with the World Government."

Lily sighed and said that this was a problem solved.

"The problem of numbers has been solved in one go. Now the only problem left is quality. I don't know how many people there were in the Knights of God back then, and it is also unknown whether there have been any increases over the years. Those guys are completely different from ordinary Celestial Dragons. They are real tough guys."

Kaido said as he kept adjusting his direction.

"I know this, and that's why I agreed to this. The World Government has too many hidden things, and we don't know how many cards they still have, especially the blood ritual. The Navy is also aware of this and knows that it is still going on. This blood ritual is definitely not meaningless. Even if those pigs like to do this kind of thing, the Five Elders will not do such meaningless things."

Lily said.

"Do you think this blood ritual could be some kind of fruit ability? Just like some fruit abilities require external conditions to activate, could this be a condition for the activation of a devil fruit?"

Kaido suddenly had an idea and said.

"Complete the ritual with blood? The first thing that comes to my mind is vampires, but what can vampires do? It's not worth it for them to do so."

Lily said after thinking for a moment.

"Perhaps their goal is not blood, but death. Based on the blood game they held that year and the intelligence from the navy, they did not collect the blood of the dead at all. Perhaps they do not need the blood at all. All they need is death. They need death and the power that death brings. This kind of death may activate something for them."

Kaido said, resting his chin on the rudder.

"Death? There are so many legends related to death, but not so many that require the ability to activate death. We can go back and search for legends based on this."

Lily thought for a moment and said.

"That's an idea, but the most important thing now is the future cooperation. Do you think they can help us find what we need?"

Kaido scratched his head and said.

"Yes, but we won't find them all. Even if we do find them, we'll only keep half of them."

"We have to intercept half of them. We also have to ensure that if they change their minds, we have a backup plan to deter them. After all, they are pirates."

Zhan Guo said to Ekaterina in front of him.

"Yes Marshal, I know what to do."

Ekaterina nodded and said.

"Sakaski, I may need to trouble you to go there next. The World Government must stabilize them now. You are the navy they trust the most, so only you can do this job. It is not an easy task. They are constantly killing people and sacrificing things. I know this is not in line with your character, but you must be patient and try to understand what they are doing as much as possible without being exposed. Remember, not being exposed is the most important thing. You are a high-level combat force in the final battle, and you must not lose it here. Do you understand?"

Sengoku said to Sakaski.

"clear."

Sakaski nodded.

"Marshal, I plan to take Araki away with me. Since he admires me, I will take this opportunity to transfer him away. This way, it will be easier for you to do everything." Sakaski said after thinking for a while.

"Okay, that's a good idea. Next up is you, Kuzan. I need you to go to the West Sea. There's a problem in the underground world over there. You take people to deal with it. We can't have a war in front of us while problems arise in the rear. We need to arrest those ambitious people who should be arrested and kill those who should be killed. We'd rather kill the wrong people than let them go. Stability in the rear is a must. The Revolutionary Army should also help you. I'll let Ace go as well, and Garp will go with them."

After Sengoku and Sakaski finished speaking, they turned to Kuzan and said.

"Understood, promise to complete the task."

Kuzan rarely showed any laziness. He seemed to have returned to many years ago when he had just left the training camp. At that time, he was still burning with justice.

"Zeff, you recently took the mechanical troops out to sea and hid under the pretext of training new recruits. I have discussed with the Four Emperors that you will put on a show and create the illusion that only a small number of people escaped after being attacked. At that time, the people of Jemal 66 will support them from all sides, and the mechanical troops will follow Jemal 66 to transfer."

Zhan Guo turned around again and said.

"Okay, I understand. How about transferring Luo back? How about I perform a scene where I lose an arm and retire peacefully? I'll do it in its entirety. I'm not the type to abandon my subordinates and run away."

Zefa said, smiling and touching his right arm.

"Okay, I'll contact Luo in a bit. You can tell him the details then. I won't repeat myself over the phone to prevent eavesdropping."

Sengoku nodded and agreed with Zefa's idea.

"Rosinante, your mission is also very important. I originally wanted to let you deal with the underground world, but now I think there is another thing you need to do. You will travel in plain clothes and go to various naval bases to investigate the situation. After confirming that the other party is loyal enough to the navy instead of the world government, give them orders to start secretly assembling troops and be ready to start the final battle at any time. Do you understand?"

Zhan Guo said to his adopted son, who has become the leader of the Navy's own secret operations team over the years. Although there is still a gap between him and CP0, he is no less inferior to CP9 and has even surpassed CP9.

"I understand, don't worry."

Rosinante said with a smile and a thumbs up.

"Okay, that's the general situation. When Borsalino comes back, I will give him other tasks. That's all for now. Everyone, start preparing. Justice will prevail!"

Zhan Guo stood up and said as he looked at the people in front of him.

"Justice will prevail!"

"Wait! Where is my mission?"

Gion stood up and said.

"You? If you're pregnant, just rest at home! Don't forget! The baby in your belly is the next generation of the navy!"

After taking a look at Gion, Sengoku said unhappily, "This Sakaski has been silent for so many years, and now that the decisive battle is about to begin, he actually does this."

"I object!" Gion shouted.

"Objection is invalid! Just like that, disband! Sakaski, take your wife back!"

Zhan Guo ended the meeting with a wave of his hand.
