Pirates of the Navy Thunder God

Chapter 567: Self-defense! (33)

"Shepat, I have a question for you."

Aokiji opened his eyes slightly and looked at the bald Lieutenant Colonel Shepat.

"exist!"

The latter was startled and stood up quickly.

"General Aokiji, please speak."

The other party is the government's highest combat force, a naval admiral who has made great contributions. He cannot be equal to him just by his own merits.

Xuepat knew clearly that his strength was too weak. Unless he had someone behind him, he would have to be cautious no matter how high the position was.

"You said you arrested Jason on Batalila Island. I guess you should have investigated his background, right?"

"Of course!"

Shepat's mind was full of thoughts, but he was determined not to give in.

"nonsense!"

boom!
A gust of cold wind blew by, and Aokiji's eyes opened completely. The commander who had been leading the battle with the BIG MOM Pirates for several months suddenly became more and more powerful, making Xuepat feel as if he was facing a collapsed snow mountain, powerless, insignificant, and his breathing was rapid.

Aokiji glared, took out a document from his arms and threw it on the table: "Then why did you only mention one sentence in the entire report, that Gol D. Jason's alias is actually Anthony Jason."

"Do you know that this Anthony Jason is a notorious gangster and orphan on Bartelila Island? His parents are both lumberjacks."

"Say!"

"Why do you identify him as the Pirate King's posthumous son without any real evidence?"

"I……"

In an instant, Shepat's face turned pale.

how come? !

A great general actually went to investigate in person?
If the previous questions were just questioning Jason's identity, then the last sentence completely overturned Shepat's report.

Zhan Guo was shocked and frowned.

"Ron, what did the assassination team say?"

You have to be prepared for everything. Zhan Guo held the historical intelligence submitted by Xuepat and the garrison on Batirila Island in one hand, and the intelligence provided by the assassination team in the other. After comparing the two, he finally felt relieved.

After all, in his mind, the bear, who had already accepted most of the transformation, had no prerequisites for betrayal.

Therefore, he did not take the pseudonym "Anthony Jason" seriously.

"Please wait a moment, Marshal."

Ron knew that this was a critical period and he must not allow Aokiji to reveal the truth about Shepard, at least... not now.

In front of everyone, Ron took out a silver-white Den Den Mushi.

Unlike the milky white tiger talisman held by the G10 base chief, this Den Den Mushi looked like it was made of metal at first glance, emitting a murderous aura of steel.

After broadcasting the number without anyone noticing, Ron slowly said, "Xiao, I am now in the Marshal's office of our headquarters. Please explain the intelligence you have investigated on Batirila Island in a concise and clear manner."

"Especially, this person named Anthony Jason."

"Anthony Jason..."

Under the expectant gazes of the crowd, an ordinary middle-aged man's voice, which would be forgotten in a flash, rang out from the Den Den Mushi.

He was silent for a moment, and through the Den Den Mushi, he could hear the sound of flipping papers.

After a moment, Den Den Mushi slowly spoke: "Anthony Jason, now 20 years old, is the son of a couple of lumberjacks on Bartirilla Island. His parents died of a serious illness ten years ago, and he has been doing nothing all day long, eating and waiting to die."

"Well, we know all of this. Is there anything else you want to report?"

Ron nodded calmly to Aokiji, as if he didn't see Shepard's almost desperate look.

"I'm sorry, sir. More than a decade ago... the assassination unit was disbanded, and our intelligence network didn't last long before it was disbanded. Therefore, we don't have any more information about this person."

Everyone: "..."

Gan!
I almost forgot about this!
After the assassination unit was disbanded, a small number of its talents remained in the headquarters to continue serving, such as Chatun, while most of them were taken over by Cipher Pol.

Tottering and vulnerable to wind and rain.

Being able to leave a description of dozens of words about an ordinary person in the chaos and keep it for several years without losing it was the limit of what the intelligence agency could do at the time.

Ron frowned slightly and asked, "So how did you investigate Anthony Jason?"

"Most of the intelligence comes from the Navy's base on Batalila Island, where..."

The middle-aged man codenamed "Owl" was silent for a while, as if hesitating about something. However, since Ron hadn't spoken for a long time, he had to speak frankly: "After all, we had spies planted in the base long before it was established."

Everyone: "..."

Damn it! ! !

I almost forgot that during the heyday of the assassination unit, it was a behemoth that could make all the evildoers retreat automatically with just a name!

Not only do they frighten outsiders, their intelligence capabilities even scare the navy.

One of the reasons they were forced to disband was that they even planted spies in the Holy Land to control every move.

Let me ask you, wouldn’t the Five Elders know about this?
Of course they knew. But someone brought it up, and that was the scapegoat for the assassination unit.

Chatun narrowed his eyes slightly, holding a cigarette in his mouth and said with a smile: "Ah, yes... At that time, even if I went to assassinate the king of a small country, I would know what underwear he was wearing today and that his queen had affairs with several nobles."

Zhan Guo glared fiercely.

If you can't speak, just shut up!

"Because time is tight, we are personally focusing on finding out the list of people Anthony Jason has come into contact with after he went to sea. Other intelligence comes from information provided by intelligence personnel stationed in the base."

"I definitely described this period of history in the final report."

Ron cast his gaze towards Zhan Guo, whose face was dark...

Yes, the intelligence of the assassination unit did include this part.

But at that time, he only wanted to compare the two pieces of intelligence to see if there were any differences and whether they were true.

The assassination team focused on investigating Jason's experience after he went to sea, which was not included in Sheppart's report. Sheppart's report was the point of suspicion for him to confirm Jason's identity, which was not included in the assassination team's report.

After finding that the experience on the island was not much different, Zhan Guo quickly put it behind him.

Now it seems……

This is actually the key point!

Zhan Guo's majestic eyes swept towards Shepat and shouted, "Do you have anything to say? Lieutenant Colonel Shepat."

"What...can this prove?"

At this critical moment, Shepat's mind was in a state of confusion, and his strong desire to survive burst out. He shouted hysterically: "The Anthony couple have lived in the forest for a long time and have no connection with the outside world. Is Anthony Jason their child? Can Admiral Aokiji produce evidence?"

"What's more, their deaths were very strange. Logging is a physically demanding job, how could they die of serious illness at the same time?"

Aokiji was outmaneuvered and his face became extremely gloomy.

"no!"

"Have you?"

"I really didn't! But it is a fact that the bear was injured, and the other party came to rescue him."

Lieutenant Colonel Shepat's eyes flashed with madness, but he was still very sincere in front of the general: "Considering the strangeness of his life experience, the special location of Bartelila Island, and the sudden death of his parents, if he is not Roger's posthumous child, who could be it?"

Too many coincidences are no longer coincidences.

The most crucial point is that the bear was seriously injured!
According to him, there were five enemies in total, all pirates he had never met before. He joined forces to injure two of them so badly that they were forced to flee. He avoided being caught up only because of his speed advantage.

To be able to severely inflict heavy damage on the "tyrant" Bear among the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the price he paid was too heavy to frame him.

After all, if Anthony Jason was truly insignificant, what good would it be if he was executed?
Just to harm Shepat?
Are you feeling full?
Well, it's very likely...

Ron's face was heavy, but he was very happy in his heart.

Aokiji, OUT!

Next up is this one...

Garp turned sideways to face him, making it difficult to see his face. He folded his hands over his chest, rising and falling with his breathing.

Boo!
A crisp explosion sounded, and Karp shuddered and shook his head. Seeing that no one was looking at him, he continued to lower his head, pretending to listen attentively.

Seeing this, Ron was very upset.

Well, I don't count on you.

The next class is math, you can continue sleeping!

Suddenly, Zhan Guo slammed the table and stood up.

"That's enough, stop messing around, Aokiji!"

The unexpected scolding stunned Aokiji. He couldn't help but remember something, lowered his head and saluted.

"Anthony Jason must be Gol D. Jason, I hope everyone understands this!"

Zhan Guo almost squeezed out these words from between his teeth, putting the matter to rest.

Shepat was about to feel complacent when he discovered that all the generals in the conference room were giving him murderous looks.

Gulu...

Ron gave him a sympathetic look.

He probably forgot that the words he just said confirmed that he had not done a thorough investigation before he publicized the fact that Jason was Roger's posthumous son.

and so.

Go back today and have something delicious.

and so!
Ron felt that Dahai was really innocent of the rumors about him, and Xiong probably never thought that his unintentional lie to shirk responsibility would lead to such disastrous consequences.

In order to avoid wasting time, I made such a plan.

You were the ones who started it!

I was acting in self-defense!
