The most courageous pirate hunter

Hastily removing the Warring States from power would likely not be convincing to the public.

Furthermore, Sengoku dedicated his entire life to the World Government, and his merits and hardships are evident to all. The World Government cannot allow its meritorious officials to feel disheartened; otherwise, how will it manage its subordinates in the future, and who will still work and risk their lives for the World Government?

Most importantly, the Warring States period was very sensible.

Squeak.

The office doors were pushed open, and Tsuru entered carrying a pile of documents. She saw Sengoku with his head down, his face frighteningly dark, and a palpable killing intent emanating from him.

But He could sense the weariness and helplessness in that heart.

She hadn't seen the Warring States period like this in a long time.

Even the strongest and most resilient people get tired and need to vent. Outsiders never get to see this, but Tsuru does, and not just Sengoku, but also Garp and Zephyr.

It's easy to imagine how special Crane was among this group of four.

The three from the Warring States period never hid anything from Tsuru, which is called trust.

Their relationship cannot be explained in just a few words.

"what happened?"

Crane's voice was calm, and he sighed inwardly.

The navy is currently in a state of utter chaos, with the situation at sea becoming increasingly unpredictable. It can be said that they are facing the greatest challenge in their history, and the troubles will only worsen over time.

"The Envillage Palace has been captured. Mary Geoise just called. The Hunter King has made four demands: 10 billion, the return of the Death Ship, the installation of Seastone at the bottom, ten Devil Fruits, and my apology."

"Otherwise, sell the Eniveli Palace to geishas and make it public."

As soon as Zhan Guo finished speaking, He's expression turned somewhat unpleasant. "I thought that guy would just kill Inevitori directly."

Crane truly hadn't expected Hermes to be so cruel and ruthless.

Selling Celestial Dragons into geisha and then announcing it to the whole world? This is disgusting and it has the World Government firmly in its grasp. It's no surprise that the Mary Geoise group is putting pressure on them again.

The first three requirements are nothing; the fourth one is the most important.

Making Sengoku admit his mistake would be a slap in the face to Sengoku and the navy. If word got out, Sengoku would lose face, which would be a major blow to his dignity and reputation.

This also shows how stubborn Hermes is; he's incredibly petty, and if he's tricked, he'll do everything he can to get revenge.

What else could a person be but sick?

But Hermes lived for the freedom of thought. If his thoughts were not free, nothing tasted good, and he would feel like a thorn in his flesh, constantly bothering him.

"So you agreed?"

He already knew what Zhan Guo would do; she understood those three old guys too well.

"It was all because of my mistake. Besides, as a naval officer, I have long dedicated everything to justice. Moreover, I am the Fleet Admiral. What do personal honor and disgrace matter to me!"

Is it really?

The crane did not ask any further questions.

There's no point in bringing it up anymore; we're all adults.

Whether it's anger or humiliation, the one who laughs last is the true winner.

Chapter 191 [To paraphrase Xiaoming (Monthly Tickets 900+1)]

Just do what you say.

Sengoku was never one to hesitate. Prepared for being teased and ridiculed, he pulled out his Den Den Mushi and dialed the number. Knowing that bastard's nature, he would definitely record the whole thing.

Even a fool would know that this conversation would be leaked.

shame.

He was ready.

It's all worthwhile to shine for justice.

This is a war without gunfire.

Moreover, the call made during the Warring States period was a video call, which fully demonstrates what it means to be open and honest.

Bulu bulu.

It didn't go through.

Bulu bulu.

After half an hour.

"This is the Monarch Organization!"

Sengoku was furious when he saw the Den Den Mushi connect to the phone.

I wasn't that angry at first, but I didn't expect the call to be so difficult. It was either busy or line-free, and all my initial mental preparation crumbled instantly.

"Oops~"

"It's Fleet Admiral Sengoku."

The video call connected, and what appeared in Sengoku's eyes was a little human, none other than Mansherry, the doctor from the Emperor Organization.

Mansherry also recognized Sengoku.

"Boss, the untrustworthy Fleet Admiral Sengoku is video calling. This old man looks harmless, but I didn't expect him to be so ruthless. We can't fall for his tricks again."

Mansherry's words were like a sharp sword piercing Sengoku's heart.

Has his credit rating really gotten that bad?

"Jie Jie Jie~"

"Damn the Warring States period, we meet again."

The scene changes.

A face that caused the Warring States period immense pain came into view, its undisguised sarcasm and mockery particularly striking, and it began with a familiar greeting.

"Jormungandr."

The Warring States period was a time of great self-control; his expression remained blank, revealing no emotion whatsoever.

"I admit I misjudged. Perhaps I was too high up, which led to a sense of superiority and caused me to blindly underestimate someone, thus triggering a chain reaction that resulted in significant losses for the Navy and the World Government."

Even if I had to do it all over again, I would still choose to nip a madman like you in the bud. Although I failed, it proves that my decision was right.

You've turned the world upside down, seemingly disappointing everyone, but in reality, you're plunging even more people into misery.

Just like Roger, you dragged the whole world down with you because of your greed and selfishness. You evil bastards deserve to go to hell.

Sengoku stared at Hermes from afar. Perhaps his decision was wrong; he wasn't cautious enough and didn't kill Hermes with a single blow. If he had, none of what followed would have happened.

Indeed, it has been proven that Hermes poses a tremendous threat to the world, and this threat has already materialized.

Human desires are endless.

The most terrifying thing in the world is precisely the human heart.

When everyone possesses immense power, the already precarious order will be completely shattered, and anyone with half a brain knows what the world will face then.

The fighting and war will continue indefinitely.

Both the scale and the probability will increase significantly, and it may even become uncontrollable.

Hermes ushered in a new era of great upheaval, which was even more terrifying than Roger's Great Pirate Era, because everyone could commit crimes and do things that they wouldn't normally dare to do for their own selfish reasons.

Like a wild beast that has broken free of its cage, it will retaliate, it will hunt, it will kill indiscriminately.

Hermes himself is a prime example. He was originally just an ordinary person from the lowest rung of society, but after gaining power, he completely let himself go, devoid of both justice and evil, which is the most terrifying thing.

Because such people act entirely on their whims, as seen in the deeds of Hermes, their recklessness and lack of checks and balances brought unimaginable disasters to the world.

So it's hard to imagine.

If those slaves and oppressed people were to gain power, how would they vent their long-held grievances and negative emotions?

"Jie Jie Jie~"

"Warring States Period, stop trying to glorify yourself."

"Your position determines your perspective, so stop talking to me about justice and evil. What is justice, Navy? What is evil, Pirate? To paraphrase Doflamingo, those notions have been rewritten countless times."

No matter how mild-mannered a human being may be, there is certainly a cruel instinct dormant within them that gets excited at the sight of blood; only blood and death provide entertainment.

This ocean believes in the law of the jungle, where the strong prey on the weak, and anyone who stands at the top can redefine good and evil, so stop being so hypocritical here.

Justice will prevail, because only the victor is justice.

So let me guess, who would hate me to the bone and think that I am the embodiment of evil and sin? It must be you nobles and princes who use your power to enjoy all kinds of privileges and use justice as a pretext to enslave countless people at the bottom of society!

I do not rule out the existence of truly righteous and powerful individuals, nor do I rule out the existence of truly kind nobles who put the people first. However, such people are too few, because this world is cruel, and it is you vampires who occupy the vast majority of resources.

justice.

evil.

It's not up to you, the Warring States period, to decide everything!
