Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

“I know you won’t be willing, but… when you actually see the Whitebeard Pirates about to be destroyed, you might change your mind, but by then it will be too late!” Sengoku said with a slight smile.

“I have no doubt that your navy does have that capability! But… can you afford such a huge loss? At that time, the other pirates in the New World will probably wipe out your forces in the New World completely, right?” Reina said with a smile.

“That’s right! You’re smart, so I won’t waste my breath on you! Join the Navy… otherwise I’ll immediately request the Fleet Admiral to issue a Buster Call against Ohara, under the pretext of studying historical texts!” Sengoku stared at Reina and said.

"Hahaha... What a Buddha Sengoku! But... I still refuse!" Reina glanced at Garp secretly, and seeing that the other man's expression was not good, he knew that the matter he had asked him to do should be fine.

He only cared about Olvia. As for the rest of Ohara, he would save them if he could, but he wouldn't force himself to do so if he couldn't. He never considered himself a savior.

Now that Olvia has Kap's help, there won't be any problems, so Reina won't compromise because of O'Hara.

Seeing that his method had failed, Sengoku's expression finally changed, but he still did not say anything about using Olvia to blackmail Reina, because his sense of justice would not allow him to go that far.

"I believe you'll figure it out if you think about it carefully!" Zhan Guo said, then turned and left.

Seeing this, Garp and Zephyr also left.

“Navy…” Reina’s face darkened after the door was closed again.

If he hadn't spoken to Garp beforehand, he might have actually been threatened by Sengoku. Moreover, he didn't want the Whitebeard Pirates to go to war with the Navy. With the Whitebeard Pirates' current strength, they had no chance of defeating the Navy.

Even if we could rescue him, the price we would have to pay would be too high.

So what he can do now is try to save himself before the Whitebeard Pirates clash with the Navy.

But given his current condition, let alone escaping from Garp, Sengoku, and Zephyr, he would be lucky to even break free of these chains!

As for agreeing to the Navy first and then running away... if it were just him, he might still do it, but now he represents not only himself, but also the Whitebeard Pirates.

Only after Sengoku and the others left did he have time to look back at the day he fought Garp, and he received the perfect attendance gift.

Yes, the time he spent fighting Garp that day was also counted as basic work time by the system, so he completed the full attendance check-in for the month. However, he was unconscious at the time and did not know what the full attendance gift was.

That day was also the last day he signed in. During these days on the naval warship, his working hours were practically zero.

Having his four-year streak of signing in interrupted, Reina was enough to hold a grudge against the Navy for that alone.

Having found the record for the last day of last month, Reina immediately saw what the perfect attendance gift package contained.

"Beep... Day 30 of consecutive check-ins... Payday is being settled..."

You have received a base salary of 300 points.

"Insufficient overtime hours, no overtime pay received."

"Sign in for 30 consecutive days this month and receive the full attendance gift: Dimensional Storage Slot".

"Dimensional storage?" Reina was taken aback and quickly opened his inventory, but found nothing. Moreover, the number of slots in his inventory had been reduced by more than half, from 64 to 24.

After thinking for a moment, Reina carefully examined his inventory.

Sure enough, the original "Inventory (General)" was directly changed to "Dimensional Storage".

Dimensional Storage: Possesses amazing dimensional storage capabilities, allowing you to store items from different dimensions.

Reina tried it out and discovered that, in addition to the items redeemed from the shop, he could also store things that originally belonged to this world into his inventory.

After making this discovery, Reina conducted several experiments and found that he could even take away the chains binding him, which gave him the idea of ​​escaping.

However, Garp, Sengoku, and Zephyr were all present at that moment, so even if he broke through the ship's hold and jumped into the sea, he might not be able to escape.

That evening, when Sengoku returned to the room where Reina was being held, Reina's attitude had improved considerably, and the two even seemed to have reached some kind of agreement.

Sengoku didn't want to let Reina go, and Reina didn't want to join the Navy. It was a dead end, but the only point of agreement between them was that neither of them wanted the Navy to go to war with the Whitebeard Pirates.

But things are different now. Reina has the possibility of escaping, so it's natural to keep the Navy in check and, at the same time, try to prevent Whitebeard from starting a war.

So he proposed that he would not join the Navy, but that the Navy should not execute him.

Therefore, he was willing to write a letter to Whitebeard, instructing the Whitebeard Pirates not to rescue him through war.

In Zephyr's view, this was already a victory for the Navy, because not only did they capture Reina, but they also eliminated the threat of the Whitebeard Pirates.

However, Sengoku hesitated to agree, because in his view, Reyna had no need to do so unless he was confident that Whitebeard and his crew could rescue Reyna from Impel Down.

But no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't figure out how the other side would break through Impel Down and rescue Reina, because once Reina got to Impel Down, even if Whitebeard launched a war, the Navy would not be afraid at all.

"I've already said this, this is my greatest sincerity. If you still don't agree, then execute me!" Reina said ruthlessly to Zefa, who came to persuade him.

Looking at Reina's expression of resignation to death, Zefa began to wonder if this guy was really willing to sacrifice himself to avoid war.

Although he didn't believe it, the facts were undeniable: once he entered Impel Down, there was no way he could get out.

However, he didn't know that in Reina's eyes, Impel Down was nothing compared to Sengoku and Capuga Zephyr. Once he arrived at Impel Down, it would be much easier for him to leave.

Meanwhile, an old acquaintance also arrived on the Whitebeard Pirates' ship.

"Hehehehehe... Newgate, it's been a long time!" Shiki the Golden Lion said with a laugh as he sat down next to Whitebeard.

"Shiki, if you're just here to catch up, you can leave now!" Whitebeard glanced at Shiki the Golden Lion and said in a deep voice.

"Sigh~ It's not easy to come here... It's a pity I can't drink that delicious baijiu, what a shame!" Shiki said with a slight smile.

"Gurararara... Shiki, if you utter another word of nonsense, I'll sink you to the bottom of the sea! That kid Reina has been giving you a lot of white wine over the years, hasn't he? He said it was to thank you for taking care of him back then, and he's been sending you some every year!" Whitebeard said with a smile.

“That’s right, although there wasn’t much stuff! But that kid put in the effort, much better than you bunch of bastards! You’re either thinking about killing me or trying to take my territory! So… what are you planning to do this time?” Shiki slowly put away his smile and asked Whitebeard.

"What? You want to come to Marineford with me?"

"Whitebeard, although our forces are considerable, we still have no chance of winning a direct confrontation with the Shanghai Navy!"

"Then what else is there to say? If you don't have the guts, just stand by and watch!" The white-bearded man chuckled, picked up his gourd, and took a big gulp.

Shiki the Golden Lion sniffed and immediately recognized that the gourd was filled with baijiu (Chinese liquor).

Originally, he came here to determine when Whitebeard would make his move, so that he could take the opportunity to purge the Navy's forces and also give face to Whitebeard and Reyner. It was a win-win situation.

However, Shiki the Golden Lion suddenly changed his mind and said, "If you want me to help, that's fine. After you rescue Reina this time, have him come and help me! I've already prepared the vice admiral of my Golden Lion Grand Fleet for him!"

"Gurarararar... You bastard, you dare to lay a finger on my family? Aren't you afraid I'll sink you to the bottom of the sea?" Whitebeard laughed as he listened.

Chapter 123 Reina's Escape

“If you don’t let Reyner go, then I can only stand by and watch. At most, I can give the Navy some blows here and tie down their forces!” Shiki took a sip of the ordinary drink beside him, looked at Whitebeard, and said.

Just as Whitebeard was about to say something, he suddenly turned his head and looked at the sea. He saw Liuliu suddenly emerge from the sea, its mouth wide open, and head straight for Whitebeard.

Shiki glanced at him from the side, as if he hadn't seen him at all. A Sea King of this level, let alone Whitebeard and him, even the officers on Whitebeard's ship shouldn't be afraid of him.

But what happened next made Shiki's expression change.

"Liuliu~ What brings you here?" Olga ran up to Liuliu as soon as she saw her and asked loudly.

She was the one who was closest to Liu Liu on the ship, so she was especially affectionate when she saw Liu Liu.

"Hiss~~ Roar!" Liu Liu was also very happy to see Olga, but it still remembered the task Reina had given it. It stretched its head next to the white-bearded man, raised its head, and revealed the bottle under its neck.

"Hmm?" Whitebeard saw the bottle and knew it must have been sent by Reina. He took the bottle off Liuliu's neck and found a letter written by Reina inside.

However, this was written by Reina when he set off for the 23rd Naval Division, so it is not of much help in the current situation.

"You actually have a way to control Sea Kings?" Shiki the Golden Lion looked at Whitebeard differently after witnessing what had just happened.

One sea king might not be much of a problem, but when these enormous creatures swarm together... their destructive power is considerable.

So now he's very curious about Liuliu and wants to know why this kind of sea king obeys Whitebeard's orders.

"Gurararara... Shiki, don't get any bad ideas. Ryuu is my family now!" Seemingly sensing Ryuu's fear of Shiki, he held the naginata directly in front of Shiki.

"Hehehehe... Whitebeard, you just love wasting resources like this. Reina does it, and so do these Sea Kings... They all have the potential to help me conquer the world!" Shiki suddenly stood up, his eyes shining as he looked at Liuliu and laughed loudly.

As the two men moved, the previously peaceful situation between the two sides became tense.

Jozu, Vista, Kozuki Oden, and the others all stood up, ready to fight as soon as Whitebeard gave the order.

"I've said it before, I have no interest in conquering the world, and neither does Reina, which is why he chose to follow me instead of you!" Whitebeard slashed his naginata directly at Shiki.

"That's why I said you're wasting your talents..." Shiki's Sakura Jū and Kōki Kō formed a cross shape, directly blocking Whitebeard's naginata.

The two men unleashed their power, instantly turning the once calm sea into a turbulent sea.

"Fine, I'll let it slide since you're about to fight the Navy! But Whitebeard... I'm waiting to receive your legacy, so don't let the Navy take my things away! Hehehehe..." Shiki said, slowly retreating after exchanging blows with Whitebeard.

Whitebeard watched the retreating Golden Lion Pirates but did not pursue them; his expression, however, became much more serious.

“Dad, what do we do now?” Vista stepped forward and asked.

"Don't rush, Marco should have some intelligence coming back soon. Let's proceed according to the plan!" Whitebeard said after a moment of contemplation.

"Bai Xiaoji, was that the guy just now Shiki the Golden Lion? He's really a formidable fellow!" Kozuki Oden said as he walked over.

He had just sensed a great threat from Shiki, because Whitebeard had warned him beforehand that he was now an important fighting force and a trump card for the Whitebeard Pirates. Rescuing Reina would be the most important part of the plan, and it was not advisable to reveal his strength now, so he had not shown up just now.

"There are quite a few powerful creatures on this high seas..." Whitebeard said softly, gazing ahead.

Meanwhile, on Cap's ship, he was discussing the Navy's and Reina's decisions with Olvia.

"So... Reina is going to be sent to Impel Down, right?" Olvia, dressed in naval uniform, said calmly.

“That’s right!” Garp replied after a moment of silence.

He was somewhat unsure how to face Olvia. To be honest, as a naval officer, it was already wrong of him to protect Olvia. Moreover, from the naval perspective, arresting Reina was also his duty, so he hadn't done anything wrong.

“Mr. Karp…can I ask you a favor?” Olvia asked with a slight smile.

"Go ahead and say it!"

"I'll write a letter later, could you please deliver it to Ohara for me?" Olvia said to Karp, as if she had made up her mind.

"What do you want to do?" Karp seemed to notice Olvia's unusual behavior and asked with concern.

"What else can I do? With you surrounding us so tightly, even Reina couldn't escape, let alone me! Don't worry, I sent the message back just to ask someone to take care of little Robin, my brother's child. I've been taking care of her before, and I'm a little worried about her since I was suddenly taken away!" Orvi said with a smile.

“Alright!” Karp nodded, agreeing to Olvia’s request.

Soon after she finished writing the letter, she saw with her own eyes that Garp arranged for the soldiers to return to the West Sea, and only then did she feel relieved.

Meanwhile, Marco, along with the members of the first squad, confirmed that Reina had been captured by the Navy and began searching for the location of the warship. The day after Sengoku and Garp reunited, he successfully figured out the Navy's secrets, but he was also discovered by the Navy.

"So, this is a letter written by Reina himself? And it needs to be given to Dad?" Marco asked, looking at the naval officer who had come to deliver the letter.

“That’s right, I need to deliver this letter to Whitebeard personally!” The naval officer nodded and said.

Marco hesitated for a moment, then ordered his men to continue keeping an eye on the naval ships before personally leading the naval officers back to the USS Moby Dick.

"That bastard... what does he want?" Whitebeard frowned and muttered after reading the letter.
