One Piece: Kaido the Beast Playing House.

Chapter 681 Post-War Summary (World Government)
"The main losses were houses and slaves. No Celestial Dragons were injured. That's the situation above."

A guard said to the Five Elders.

"Got it, anything else?"

Maz Saint nodded. This was the only good news today.

"Also, Admiral Sengoku is waiting outside and would like to meet you gentlemen."

"Let him in, and all of you get out."

Saint Maz nodded and dismissed his attendants. After a while, Zhan Guo walked in.

"Saint Maz, I'm so sorry, we were held up by Kaido and Rose Lily and were unable to rescue her in time."

After Zhan Guo walked in, he admitted his mistake without saying a word. As the saying goes, one should not hit a smiling person. As a dignified admiral of the navy, he laid out his crimes right away. Even if the Five Elders shamelessly wanted to punish them, they couldn't say anything. The quality of Kaido and Lily was still fine.

"I see. It's not your fault. The Four Emperors may have planned this for a long time. It happened suddenly. It's not your fault that you were stopped."

As expected, just as Sengoku thought, the Five Elders did not really intend to blame the navy.

"What should we do next? Lord Five Elders, if we keep silent this time, the prestige of the entire World Government will be hit. This is not the same situation as before. I'm afraid we must respond."

Zhan Guo led the topic to the war. It was not that he wanted to start a war. After all, the navy had a lot of things going on recently. First, the navy's own business development had just got on the right track, anti-corruption was being carried out in the four seas, and large-scale technical exchanges with the Vinsmoke family were being carried out. However, this time they really had to fight. If they did not fight, they would not be able to stop the gossips. Once the World Government did not fight this war, the voices against the World Government would increase infinitely.

"That's right. The reason we didn't go out just now was because we were worried that starting a war here would have too much impact. Since those pirates didn't attack the Celestial Dragons, but simply released some slaves, we'll let them do whatever they want. But we can't fail to respond next. You are the Admiral of the Navy, so tell me how many people you can provide."

Nasujuro Sei asked, looking at Sengoku.

"On the navy side, myself, Admiral Zephyr, and Navy Hero Garp will definitely participate. The three admiral candidates will be decided depending on the situation. Sakaski has taken people to the Four Seas to carry out anti-corruption work. The Four Seas are our foundation, and we can't let it get too chaotic. In addition, the Revolutionary Army has been making trouble everywhere recently. If we don't do a good job of the navy's ability, it will be difficult to deal with it next. In addition, the lieutenant generals of the headquarters and various powerful branches can be transferred. If the grassroots soldiers give me enough time, it will be no problem to mobilize 50,000 to 80,000 people for the expedition. However, the only problem may be that there are not enough new battleships and the speed of the old battleships is not enough. At that time, the fleet may be out of touch."

Zhan Guo counted on his fingers the combat power he could bring out. Excluding some special forces that the navy didn't want to use at all, he revealed all his apparent strength to the Five Elders. By the way, he also cried poor. After all, since the collective tax resistance of the New World countries last year, the navy's large-scale construction project has been temporarily halted. The new warships that have been launched can only be used for the headquarters and some important branches for the time being, and the original plan to replace all the equipment has been stopped.

"Don't worry about the ships. We can modify some of them for you to use. Leave the anti-corruption work in the four seas to others. The general candidate was completely overqualified in the past. Let him come back. An ordinary lieutenant general and major general of the headquarters will be enough. We don't plan to let CP0 participate in this battle. They need to guard against the people of the Revolutionary Army. However, two of us will participate in the battle. You should plan how to fight the next battle. Sora is not allowed to use it, but I allow you to go to Sora to discuss countermeasures. Do you understand?"

Peter Saint looked at Zhan Guo and said.

"Yes! But before we came, Kaido gave me something before retreating. Similarly, Big Mom, one of the Four Emperors, Charlotte Linlin, also gave Kuzan this thing. Please take a look. I want to know if we really need to attack here. This is very likely a trap."

As Zhan Guo said this, he took out two scrolls from his arms. They were the two scrolls that Kaido and Big Mom had given out before. Maz Saint stood closest to Zhan Guo and took them casually. They were not afraid of any mechanism. After all, they were not civil servants who could only talk. They were all top-notch fighters. Maz Saint unfolded the scroll in his hand. The first thing he saw was a small castle with the words "Marijoa" written on it, followed by an arrow pointing to three small islands. Above the arrow was written "80 nautical miles", followed by a letter of war. The general idea was that they knew you were unhappy about being robbed, and the Four Emperors were also unhappy, so they simply set up their chariots, horses and cannons to fight a real battle in this place. If you don't want to lose face, come over. Of course, there must be more things written in it, and there are many curse words mixed in it. The degree of curse is so bad that it is unbearable to look at it.

"Just take a look."

Saint Maz frowned and handed the scroll to the others. After it was passed around, the Five Elders, who already had very ugly expressions, became even more angry. Saint Nasujuro, who had the hottest temper, even tore the scroll into pieces, threw it on the ground, and stomped on it a few times.

"Damn pirates! They are going too far! How dare they! How dare they!"

Nasujuro Sei now had the urge to rush out and kill all the Four Emperors. At the same time, he was also glad that he had grabbed one of the two spots before, otherwise, he would have been suffocated to death.

"They are very bold, but this also exposes a problem. They know they are no match for us, so they concentrated their forces. They have guessed that our main goal is to punish them lightly and warn them drastically, rather than really wanting them to die completely, so they did this. Even the vulgar words in this scroll are because they are worried that we will not go there, but attack other places directly. In addition, they came here today and took away so many slaves without hurting any Tianlong people. It seems that they are still sensible, although they are really hateful."

Although Saint Satan looked grim, he did not completely lose his mind. He soon discovered the secret behind the declaration of war, and therefore became more certain about certain things.

"So what? Should we teach these guys a lesson? Just ignore them and attack those who dare not pay taxes and have good relations with those pirates. Let them learn a lesson that will last a lifetime."

Peter Saint glanced at Zhan Guo, and Zhan Guo turned around and left the room and said.

"No, we should attack there directly. Only in this way can we attract the full attention of the Four Emperors, and then we can complete our plan, which is to bring Vegapunk back."

Saint Voculius denied Saint Peter's statement.

"I agree with Saint Vochuli. If we don't go over there, they will be distracted and their attention will be divided everywhere. It is very likely that they will discover our intentions. Don't forget that compared to these trivial matters, the mother fire that Vegapunk is studying is the most important thing. If they find out about Vegapunk and kill him, then it will be a real big loss for us. We will have to fight both inside and outside, so we must choose the one that will cause the least loss as much as possible."

Saint Satan nodded to Saint Vochuli and said.

"Indeed, Vegapunk is not important, but Vegapunk's invention is important, the Mother Fire is important, and it is especially important to master the Mother Fire before that adult wakes up."

Mazi Saint nodded and said.

"So, let the navy add more people, let the mixed-blood team go up as well, make a bigger noise, and focus all the attention of the Four Emperors on us. This way, it will be easier for the CP0 people to act behind them. Then tell the CP0 people not to worry about other things, but to bring Vegapunk back as quickly as possible. The things on the island can be destroyed at most, but Vegapunk must not be brought back in any way."

It was rare that Saint Satan actually made a closing speech, and the other five elder stars nodded and agreed with Saint Satan's words. After that, they called Zhan Guo in again, and after blessing him in detail, the whole hall fell silent again.
