Chapter 73 A Sudden Decision (Please Subscribe!)

Naval Headquarters, Marineford, Field Marshal's Office.

The complete annihilation of the Donquixote Pirates is quite a big news in the Marine Headquarters, where countless events occur every day.

In the past, whenever similar news came out, there would always be some people who would come to the Marshal's office from time to time to celebrate, have some snacks, and drink some wine.

For example, Zephyr and Garp.

Now, the marshal's office is quiet.

Sengoku sat in his office chair with a gloomy face, looking at the blond man in front of him without saying a word.

Corazon simply stood in the middle of the office, fidgeting.

"Commander Sengoku—" Kora began, but was immediately interrupted by Sengoku.

"You'd better think this through before you speak!" Sengoku said, his tone serious.

Corazon scratched his head, thought for a moment, and finally spoke up: "I really don't know where the Op-Op Fruit went—"

""

"The reason I'm on the island is solely because I want to help the Navy obtain this Op-Op Fruit."

"Didn't I tell you not to go near that island anytime soon!"

Zhan Guo slammed his fist on the desk, causing several of the documents piled on it to fall to the ground.

Upon hearing this commotion, the door to the marshal's office was immediately banged on.

clap clap clap!

"Corazon, are you alright?" Luo's voice came from outside the door.

Corazon had finally gained the ability to cure lead poisoning, and Rocco wouldn't just stand by and watch Corazon be bullied.

—At least that's how he sees it.

"That brat—" Sengoku narrowed his eyes and gestured for Corazon to let Law in.

Upon seeing this, Corazon quickly went over and opened the door to the Marshal's office.

Luo, who was eavesdropping by lying on the door, tripped and fell as the door opened. He immediately got up and looked at Sengoku with a threatening gaze.

Corazon coughed twice and said to Law, "Law, this is my superior, Mr. Sengoku."

Sengoku glanced at the pale markings on Luo's skin and chuckled softly.

Six months ago, Corazon asked him for leave, saying he wanted to find a way to cure this little devil's lead poisoning.

Now the Op-Op Fruit is gone, but Corazon and this brat have both appeared on that island.

Even if Sengoku was incredibly stupid, he knew what Corazon had done.

Ultimately, Corazon was his adopted son, and the Don Quixote family had already been destroyed, for which Corazon also played a part.

"Sigh—" Sengoku sighed, seemingly helplessly, "Now that the Op-Op Fruit is gone, there's no point in disciplining you anymore."

Upon hearing this, Corazon's eyes lit up: "Then I want to back out a bit!"

However, before he could finish speaking, Sengoku interrupted him directly.

"Alright then, you and this brat will stay here at Marine Headquarters and you're not allowed to go anywhere!"

Corazon's face immediately fell; Sengoku's words shattered his dream of retirement.

Just as Corazon was about to retort, he saw Sengoku's piercing gaze and immediately realized that his adoptive father had seen through his little scheme.

Corazon shrugged sheepishly and pulled Luo along, saying, "Okay."

Meanwhile, Kitahara Tsuneo, after making a brief appearance at Enies Lobby, returned to Marineford with the rest of the Marines.

When Admiral Zephyr learned that Kitahara Tsune had single-handedly almost defeated the entire Donquixote Pirates, he was immediately in high spirits.

Kitahara Tsune's promotion to major general was also expedited thanks to his relentless pursuit of Sengoku.

With the promotion documents successfully issued, Kitahara Tsune's profile also changed.

The commodore in the occupation column has been changed to rear admiral.

The number of draws below has changed to 1.

Without much hesitation, after completing his daily training, Kitahara Tsune had a sudden thought and silently recited the lottery.

A blue bar appeared on his panel.

[A Whim (Blue)]: You have some involvement in the world's fortunes. You occasionally sense events that are in your favor.

"Oh?"

Upon seeing this entry, Kitahara Tsuneo immediately became interested.

This was the first time he had drawn a fortune-related entry, and it was even a blue one.

Kitahara Tsune calmed himself down, trying to grasp the benefits that the entry described for him.

However, after trying for a while, I didn't feel anything at all.

Kitahara Tsune scratched his head, thinking that the ability of the "whim" entry was telling him what to do in the dark or subconscious.

But now it seems that's not the case.

No longer paying attention to this entry, Kitahara Tsuneo picked up the camera Den Den Mushi that was placed in the corner of the training ground and walked towards Sengoku's office.

In the few days since he returned, besides waiting for feedback from the system, he has been busy with matters related to recording naval training courses.

The green entry for "[Teaching]" provided him with a lot of help when he was training the navy, and also gave him a lot of feedback.

If these photography courses were promoted, with the help of the entire Marineford Navy, the entry should be able to be upgraded to blue.

As Kitahara Tsune approached the office door, about to knock, he saw Corazon pulling Law along, both looking dejected as they walked out.

"Corazon? What are you doing here?"

Kitahara Tsune was somewhat surprised to see Corazon walk out of Sengoku's office.

He has been traveling from Judicial Island for two or three days now.

Logically speaking, Corazon, who returned to Marine Headquarters so early, should have already met with Sengoku.

After expressing his doubts, Corazon gave a wry smile and said, "I was delayed on the way and only arrived yesterday."

Previously, when Corazon was on Vice Admiral Tsuru's warship, after hearing the task assignment from Fleet Admiral Sengoku, he had already imagined this scene today.

So, under the pretext of needing to treat Luo's illness, he deliberately stopped at several small islands along the way and bought some medical supplies.

The goal was to buy time and allow the morale of the Warring States period to subside.

However, it seems to have had the opposite effect.

After learning about Sengoku's handling of Corazon, Kitahara Tsuneo patted him on the shoulder and said, "Then you can stay in Marineford. If you get bored, come to the training grounds. I can help you with Law's training."

Corazon nodded and left with Law.

Kitahara Tsune, carrying a camera Den Den Mushi (a type of electric scooter), pushed open the door to Sengoku's office.

At that moment, Sengoku was bending down to pick up the documents that he had shaken off the ground.

Kitahara Tsune, with his keen eyesight, noticed the contents of the document.

It was exactly what he mentioned earlier: using a camera Den Den Mushi to record some naval training courses.

Sengoku glanced at the Den Den Mushi that Kitahara Tsune had taken and immediately understood why the kid had come here.

Sengoku's attitude towards this hero who had captured the Donquixote Pirates was much better than before.

"I have already approved the matter mentioned earlier, but we will discuss the specifics at a meeting in a few days."

"I've reviewed the training plans you recorded before. They might be too difficult for ordinary naval personnel. You'll need to adjust them further."

"I'll also have a few lieutenant generals take notes on their training plans, so you don't have to focus all your attention on that."

Kitahara Tsune nodded, indicating that he had made a note of it.
