Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

"That's not necessarily true!" Reina said with a light laugh as he walked. "Haven't you heard? Pirates are all greedy. Maybe we've been bribed by the World Government!"

"Hehehe... Well, there's nothing we can do about it. Who told us our wealth to be inferior to that of the World Government! We, the Revolutionary Army, have returned all our wealth to the people, so we are very poor!" Koala said with a pitiful expression.

Reina smiled but didn't say anything more; he didn't believe a single punctuation mark of what he said.

It's true that the revolutionary army was poor, but we have to consider the comparison!

Compared to the World Government, no one dares to claim to be wealthy, but apart from the World Government, the Revolutionary Army's wealth is no less than anyone else's.

Soon, Reina and his group passed through the front square of the Holy Land Mary Geoise. When they arrived at the first building, Rob Lucci of CP0 was already waiting for them with his men.

"Everyone, the meeting room is ready. Please follow me!" Lucci, who was not wearing a mask, said to the crowd.

Chapter 1264 The Strange Lucci

When Rob Lucci appeared in front of Reina, Reina looked at him with some surprise.

Because he noticed that Lucci's health bar was a different color than everyone else's. Including the extraterrestrials from opposing forces, everyone Reina had seen so far had a red health bar.

However, when he saw Lucci, he noticed that Lucci's health bar was green, which made him feel a little strange. He wondered why Lucci was different from others.

Lucci quickly noticed Reina's gaze, which surprised him. He didn't understand why Reina was staring at him.

Soon, after Lucci and the CP0 agents led them to their destination, they said, "Please come in, everyone!"

Reina frowned and looked at Lucci, saying, "You're a Zoan-type Devil Fruit user, right?"

Although Lucci didn't understand why Reina would ask that, he still nodded and said, "Yes, what can I do for you, Lord Reina?"

Lucci had been watching Reina the whole way here, and he was already quite annoyed. However, since they were now guests of the World Government, Lucci hadn't made a fuss. But now that Reina was clearly implying something, he was starting to lose patience.

Reina nodded thoughtfully and said, "Show me your transformation!"

Lucci's expression changed. He was the leader of CP0, and he could disobey anyone's orders except those of the Celestial Dragons.

But what does Reina take him for now? He's not some kind of acrobat, how could he transform for no reason?

Reina's words angered Lucci, but he knew it wasn't appropriate to make a move here, so he snorted and prepared to leave. Otherwise, he couldn't guarantee he would continue to tolerate it.

“Mr. Reina, you didn’t come here to provoke us, did you? So you’d better go inside quickly!” Just as Lucci turned to leave, Kaku, who was standing to the side, saw that Reina seemed to be planning to do something, so he immediately stepped forward, blocking between Reina and Lucci, and said in a deep voice.

“Father!” Robin looked at Reina with some confusion, not understanding why Reina would suddenly cause trouble for Lucci.

Jinbe, who was standing to the side, was even ready to take action. As a former member of the Whitebeard Pirates, he knew very well that once Reina decided to do something, their job was to stand by Reina and stand with him.

Koala of the Revolutionary Army, however, was quite curious and stepped back slightly. She was not suited to participate in this level of battle and did not want to be dragged into it without knowing why. She was now representing the Revolutionary Army.

The atmosphere became strange and oppressive. Everyone looked at Reina; if he insisted on making a move, a major battle would be inevitable.

"What are you all doing here? Why don't you go inside?" But just then, Sengoku walked over with the Red-Haired Pirates.

Reina turned his head and saw that the person representing the Red-Haired Pirates was actually Shanks himself.

Moreover, Shanks and Sengoku both looked at Reyna.

Although they didn't know what had happened, they could sense that something was off about the atmosphere.

The officers who had been assigned by the Warring States period immediately stepped forward and explained what had happened.

Upon hearing this, Sengoku and Shanks both looked at Lucci, wanting to see what was so special about him and why Reina had targeted him.

At this moment, Lucci was also a little confused. He had not offended Reina, so why was Reina suddenly targeting him?

However, Reina did not explain, but chuckled and turned to walk towards the conference room.

The abnormal color of Lu Qi's health bar is likely caused by some reason. Even if he takes action now, he won't be able to find the reason, so there's no need to waste time on it. There will be plenty of time to find out later.

Seeing Reina leave, Robin and the others followed him, while Shanks and Sengoku were completely bewildered.

"Damn it... don't let me catch you red-handed!" Watching Reina leave, Lucci suppressed his anger and said softly.

"Lucci, when did you offend Reina?" Kaku asked curiously.

He and Lucci were basically always together, and he never discovered when Lucci had ever wronged Reina!

Lucci shook his head and replied, "I don't know. I've been in the Holy Land the whole time recently, who knows what's wrong with him!"

Although he said that, both he and Kaku knew that Reina wasn't that kind of person, and that something must have happened that they didn't know about.

"Father? Is something wrong with Lucci?" Robin asked quietly on the way to the conference room.

She knew her father wouldn't go back specifically to target anyone unless there was a reason, which is why she asked.

Reina smiled and shook his head, saying, "No! I just felt that he seemed a little different from before, so I originally planned to test him!"

"Different?" Robin was completely confused, having no idea what Reina meant.

Koala, Sengoku, and Shanks, who were following behind them, also heard the father and daughter's conversation, but they didn't say anything.

Soon the group arrived at the conference room prepared by the World Government, where the Five Elders were already waiting for them.

Besides the Five Elders, Reina even saw Fleet Admiral Akainu and Admiral Green Bull here.

"Oh~ Pretty high-profile, huh? It's actually five old men from you. I thought you'd just send some random Tom, Dick, or Harry!" Reina casually found a seat and said flippantly.

Seeing this, Robin and Jinbe, representing the Straw Hat crew, also sat down next to Reina.

Seeing this, Kerla looked around and then sat down on the other side of Reina.

The Five Elders glanced at Reina, but ignored him, instead nodding to Sengoku behind him.

"Now that everyone is here, let's begin!" After Sengoku and Shanks were seated, the Five Elders, dressed in dark blue suits, with long, straight white hair and long beards, spoke up.

"First, let me explain why I've summoned you all here!" The Five Elders, dressed in white Taoist robes, carrying a long sword, bald, and wearing glasses, spoke directly upon seeing the situation: "According to our intelligence, the extraterrestrial visitors may launch a counterattack recently. However, their intention in launching this counterattack is not to expand their territory, but to secretly send an elite force out of your encirclement and infiltrate our ranks!"

The Five Elders' words made Reina and the others frown.

First of all, this intelligence came from a rather strange source. They were in the North Sea and had not received any intelligence from extraterrestrial visitors. How did the World Government know about it?

Moreover, as far as Reina knew, the World Government had never paid much attention to extraterrestrial visitors, otherwise they wouldn't have only sent veterans like Sengoku and Garp to guard the North Blue.

But the fact that they were able to obtain intelligence from extraterrestrial visitors means that they had been planning this for at least a long time.

This indicates that something is not right.

Secondly, it's true that the World Government shared this intelligence with them, since extraterrestrials are the enemy of all of them. However, since the World Government already knows this intelligence, they must also be very clear about the matter of the power of destiny. If they send people to ambush the elite squad of extraterrestrials, they should gain even more benefits.

Chapter 1265 The Meeting Begins

The Five Elders looked at the silent crowd and did not continue speaking.

He knew that the others would need time to think about what he was saying, so he gave them plenty of time.

"What is your source of intelligence?" Kerla couldn't help but ask after a moment.

Based on their revolutionary army's combat experience against extraterrestrial visitors, obtaining intelligence from them was practically impossible.

That's why he asked the question in public.

However, the Five Elders didn't seem to care about her or answer her question. Instead, they continued, "Therefore, this operation involving extraterrestrial visitors will require our concerted efforts!"

However, after he finished speaking, the scene was very quiet, and no one stood up to answer. Even Sengoku pretended to be thinking.

The five elders looked around and noticed that Reina was sitting with his legs crossed, tapping his fingers rhythmically on his legs, looking very relaxed.

"If none of you have any objections, then we will divide the defense zones. You will each be responsible for your own zone, and we will also send people to assist you. We will try our best to stop the elite team of extraterrestrial visitors within the defensive perimeter!" After waiting for a moment and seeing that no one spoke, the Five Elders continued, "If you have any opinions, you can raise them now!"

However, the scene remained quiet. Robin, Jinbe, and Koala sat silently in their respective seats, while Shanks leaned back in his seat, seemingly asleep.

Reina produced a small knife from somewhere and was grooming his nails.

Only Sengoku looked at the Five Elders with an embarrassed expression.

Seeing the situation becoming increasingly awkward, Sengoku had no choice but to give Reina a wink. He knew that the Straw Hat crew and the Revolutionary Army were all following Reina's lead on this trip. If Reina agreed, then the matter would be half successful.

Reina wasn't in a hurry. He held up one finger to Sengoku, opened his mouth, and silently uttered two words.

"Garp!"

Sengoku's lips twitched as he understood what Reina meant. The other party wanted to fight Garp, or rather, needed Garp as a sparring partner.

Although he felt somewhat speechless, Sengoku thought for a moment and then nodded, agreeing to Reina's request.

Seeing this, Reina looked at Kella and gave her a look.

Kella pursed her lips. Although she really didn't want to agree, she knew that the bigger picture was more important, so she spoke again and asked, "May I ask what your source of information is?"

Upon hearing Kelra's words, the Five Elders all narrowed their eyes and looked at her. Even Reina secretly applauded her, thinking, "That's a good question."

Previously, the other party ignored Kella, but in the current situation, if the Five Elders continue to ignore her, then there is absolutely no need for this meeting to continue.

Now, Kella has not only slapped the Five Elders in the face, but also driven them to a dead end. Aren't you arrogant? Didn't you look down on this little girl?

Now you must answer her question, the exact same one you asked before.

It all depends on what the Five Elders choose.

“You’re the representative of the Revolutionary Army, aren’t you? Why doesn’t Dragon come himself? If it’s him, I can answer that question!” Jegarcia Satan Saint, one of the Five Elders, said slowly.

His words were simple: you, young lady, are not qualified to speak with them, so they don't want to answer.

Furthermore, they believed that Kerla was completely unrepresentative of the Revolutionary Army.

If the Revolutionary Army reneges on the agreement reached with Kerla now, they will have ample reason to do so, since Dragon never personally agreed to the cooperation.

In addition, Kella is young and not very strong, which is why they underestimated him.

If it had been Robin or Jinbe who spoke up earlier, they wouldn't have explained, but they certainly wouldn't have ignored it.

Of course, this was also because Reina was there; if they ignored him, it would be disrespectful to him.

“I can represent the Revolutionary Army with full authority!” Kerla replied angrily.

However, the five elders simply smiled and said nothing more.

Seeing this, Sengoku coughed and said, "I wonder what position the young lady holds in the Revolutionary Army? Your Revolutionary Army has always been mysterious. We don't know if you are a member of the Revolutionary Army, or if you can actually replace the Revolutionary Army!"

“She’s the second-in-command of the Revolutionary Army, and the fiancée of Chief of Staff Sabo!” Before Kerla could speak, Reina replied with a strange smile.

Kerla was about to explain, but when she thought about her position in the Revolutionary Army and realized that she couldn't represent the Revolutionary Army's descendants, she could only sit down angrily and let Reina spread rumors.

As expected, Reina's words made everyone look at Kella with some surprise.

As for Robin and Jinbe, they lowered their heads and suppressed their laughter. They had already witnessed Reina's teasing along the way, so they knew the true relationship between Koala and Sabo.
