Of course, Doflamingo himself wasn't worried.
His identity is special, and the network of interests behind him is intricate and complex, so the world government will not easily take action against him.
But what about the other Seven Warlords of the Sea?
If they revert to their pirate identities, will the Navy still have enough manpower to fight these great pirates?
After shaking his head, Doflamingo turned his gaze to the direction of the pirates and said, "This world is getting more and more interesting!"
Whitebeard and Fire Fist didn't die, and the Straw Hats rose to power, acquiring two Devil Fruits.
The fifth emperor of the sea is about to appear!
Or, to put it another way, will the frail Whitebeard become the target of a knife attack?
After all, two other Yonko had long coveted Whitebeard's territory.
A new era is just around the corner!
"Wow, this is quite a reshuffle."
Doflamingo chuckled softly, his hands in his pockets. As he passed Sengoku, he paused, turned his head, and said in a voice only the two of them could hear:
"Marshal of the Warring States Period, enjoy your retirement!"
Sengoku's pupils contracted slightly.
Doflamingo had already walked away laughing, his laughter sounding particularly jarring on the bloody battlefield.
"This guy,"
Lieutenant General Tsuru walked up to Sengoku, his brow furrowed. "I have a feeling he's up to something."
"He's always been up to no good."
Sengoku calmly said, "But as long as he doesn't cross the line, the navy can't touch him."
"Should I go and kill him?"
A hot-tempered lieutenant general nearby made a suggestion.
Vice Admiral Tsuru rolled her eyes at him: "The Seven Warlords of the Sea are protected by law. Besides..."
She didn't finish her sentence, but the meaning was clear:
Can you beat him?
Otherwise, what would be the point of the World Government recruiting these Seven Warlords of the Sea?
The lieutenant general awkwardly shut his mouth.
"Alright, everyone go ahead and get busy."
Sengoku waved his hand, "Treatment of the wounded, battlefield cleanup, warship repair... there is still much to be done."
The generals gradually dispersed.
Lieutenant General Tsuru did not leave.
She looked at Zhan Guo, her old comrade-in-arms with whom she had worked for decades. His face was full of fatigue, and even his carefully trimmed goatee seemed to have lost its former luster.
Lieutenant General Tsuru said softly, "Are you prepared?"
By taking the initiative to order a ceasefire and allowing the Whitebeard Pirates and Straw Hat Luffy to leave, the World Government considered this a major dereliction of duty.
It seems that Zhan Guo won't be able to hold onto his position as marshal for long.
"Ah, it's been ready for a while now."
Zhan Guo smiled and said, "Actually, this is fine too. I'm tired too."
He looked up at the sky, which was gradually clearing up.
The dark clouds over the Sea of Impel are dissipating, and sunlight is piercing through the clouds, shining on the broken ice and the wrecked warships.
Too many people died in this war.
Sengoku sometimes wondered what he would be like now if he hadn't become the Fleet Admiral.
Perhaps he's still holding a sinecure in some branch, spending his days drinking tea, reading newspapers, and occasionally catching a few hapless pirates.
"The first thing I'm going to do after I step down is to steal that old bastard Garp's rice crackers."
Lieutenant General Tsuru paused for a moment, then chuckled: "That's all you've got."
"And his tea."
Zhan Guo added, "I've had my eye on that special-supply black tea for a long time."
They both gave a wry smile in unison.
Sometimes I really wish I could be like Garp.
Lieutenant General Tsuru looked ahead and asked, "Have you decided who will fill your position after you step down?"
Zhan Guo looked up at the distance.
Kuzan was directing soldiers to move the wounded.
"Aokiji?"
Lieutenant General He followed his gaze, his expression complex.
In terms of ability, prestige, and seniority, Aokiji is indeed a suitable candidate.
But after this war, Aokiji's sense of justice seemed to waver.
Lieutenant General Tsuru could sense that this usually lazy man was going through some kind of struggle deep inside.
But he is indeed the most suitable candidate.
Although Akainu has a distinguished record of military exploits, his strength has been greatly reduced after losing an arm, and his extreme methods may not be suitable for the position of Fleet Admiral.
Kizaru is another story; he's just like Garp.
Would he be willing?
General He asked.
"do not know."
Sengoku honestly replied, "But I will recommend him. As for who the World Government ultimately chooses, that's beyond my control."
Anyway, their faction will do everything in their power to promote Aokiji.
There are many factions within the navy as well.
Chapter 380 Golden Lion: Rayleigh? Shakky?!
I don't know how much time passed.
Sabaody Archipelago, along coastline 44.
A submarine slowly surfaced.
The hatch opened, and Luffy was the first to step out.
"Oh, I didn't expect to be back here."
Staring at the huge island not far away, Luffy was quite moved.
A few days away felt like an eternity.
So much has happened lately.
He stretched and loosened his muscles.
Luo's treatment was very effective. Although he still felt a dull ache in various parts of his body, at least he could move around without any problems.
The problem of the conflict between the two Devil Fruits has been resolved, but how to develop them is a troublesome matter.
Sunlight shines on the giant mangrove trees of the Sabaody Archipelago, and bubbles float in the air, refracting a rainbow of colors.
When I left a few days ago, this place was a chaotic battlefield, but now it has returned to its former prosperity.
At least that's how it appears on the surface.
"Thanks, Traman," Luffy said. "Thanks for making this extra trip."
"Hehehe, I also owe you a favor, Traman."
The golden lion followed and came out, its head wrapped in thick bandages, but it seemed to be in good spirits.
He laughed and patted Law on the shoulder, the gesture so forceful that Luffy worried he might tear open his wound.
"It's Trafalgar Law."
Luo emphasized this point as he stepped out of the submarine, his face expressionless.
He glanced at Shiki and Luffy with a hint of helplessness.
Luo didn't bother to ask them to change their nickname, no matter how it came about.
In any case, this trip was very fruitful.
Luffy not only gained the favor, but also received the unexpected bonus of Golden Lion.
Shaking his head, Law looked at Shiki and said, "Also, remember the precautions I gave you. Don't do any strenuous exercise for at least two weeks, or I won't be responsible if the wound reopens."
"Okay, okay," the golden lion waved his hand dismissively.
They agreed readily, but when they looked up, they saw three people and their eyes widened in surprise.
There were three people standing on the shore.
No, to be precise, it was two people and a ghost floating in the air.
"Luffy!"
Perona floated over.
She was wearing a black gothic dress, and her pink hair was flowing behind her.
