One Piece: Lord of Disaster

Then these crazy guys published articles in the newspapers saying that this was retaliation for the World Government's actions against the Ten Thousand Nations.

This time it's just a warning, next time we'll be serious.

Later, in the local newspaper of the North Sea, the king who had survived the pirate attack joined several other kings to strongly condemn the pirates' actions.

Then they called on the world government to end this farce as soon as possible and not let innocent countries be involved in danger.

This article received responses from almost all member states on the ocean.

This is just the appearance.

And secretly...

New World, the Grand Fleet, the rooms of the Five Elders.

"Damn scum!"

Maz, who was always calm and composed, was so angry that his beard was shaking. "They are trying to use the member states to put pressure on the government!"

"From yesterday until now, a large number of member states have called Mary Geoise, saying that a mere New World isn't worth the huge risk all of them would take! Many kings are advocating abandoning the New World altogether and waiting for an opportunity to strike a fatal blow against those scum."

The most annoying thing for Cao Dan is that the people sent to Wano Country, Beehive Island and Wano Country haven’t arrived yet!

In front of him, Lieutenant Generals Zhan Guo and He had serious expressions.

The situation is already bad.

The enemy has been avoiding fighting and has even fled to the North Sea, making it impossible to capture them.

Then they also put pressure on the government in various ways.

"Saint Maz, what should we do next?"

We were simply being led by the enemy and had no way out.

It's a complete deadlock!

Chapter 157 Mahayana wins the school! Assault on Marin!

Zhan Guo felt very anxious.

Those united scum are already very difficult to deal with.

Even in a head-on battle, without the support of the World Government, the outcome of the battle with the navy alone is still uncertain.

However, those bastards chose a more rogue and unreasonable way of playing.

drag.

They want to bring the navy down to earth.

The navy was helpless.

What's worse is that the member states have also become restless.

Zhan Guo felt that there was nothing he could do.

We can’t even find the enemy, so what can we do with them?

"We need a victory, Sengoku,"

Maz, one of the Five Elders, said indifferently, "A victory that is enough to inspire and boost morale must first calm the member states down."

"victory?"

Zhan Guo was a little confused. "Those guys probably have no intention of confronting us head-on. The war can't even begin, so how can we talk about victory?"

"Can't we win if we can't find the enemy?"

The Five Elders simply glanced at him nonchalantly and said, "Sengoku, as a soldier, no one is more qualified than you. Garp is too self-centered, and Zephyr lost his spirit long ago. Only you are a soldier that the government can always trust."

"However, it's not enough to just deal with the problem from a soldier's perspective. Sooner or later, you will succeed Sora as the new marshal. Sengoku, you must learn to see the overall situation from a higher perspective."

"For example, right now, what you should be thinking about is not how to beat those guys and win, but how to convince the world that we have won a crucial victory."

Zhan Guo's eyes widened instantly, and his expression became a little strange.

How can you win without even touching the enemy's shadow?

"Saint Maz, do you mean... that we fake a victory?"

"We say we won, and the evidence we produced proves we won. The vast majority of media outlets around the world will agree that we won,"

Maz asked, "How can it be faked? Didn't we just win a great victory?"

Zhan Guo was speechless for a moment.

Can you do this?

Is this the difference between a politician and a soldier like him?

However, Mazsheng's idea is not unreasonable.

Now the member states really need a great victory to boost morale.

Otherwise, if the kings were overwhelmed by the fear brought by the Pirate Alliance, the government's actions would be greatly restricted.

Even the World Government cannot openly go against the will of all the member states.

Is this a white lie?

"But, Saint Mazi,"

Zhan Guo said with some worry, "What if Luo Ya and the others get angry and retaliate against the member states again?"

"I said it was a necessary sacrifice."

The Five Elders looked indifferent. "Zhan Guo, what do you think will be the greater threat to the world: sacrificing a few member states or allowing those monsters to successfully occupy the New World?"

"..."

Zhan Guo was speechless.

Finally, he nodded hesitantly, "Yes, I understand."

So the navy began to take action, preparing to artificially create a "great" victory.

But of course, such a plan also caused some objections among the navy's top brass.

At the naval combat meeting held by Sengoku, the hero Garp burst into laughter after listening to the plan described by Sengoku.

"Wahahahaha! Are you going to deceive the whole world now?"

"It's so sad,"

Lieutenant General Tsuru crossed his arms, a sigh on his face. "Unable to defeat the enemy, have we been reduced to resorting to such means to maintain the prestige of the government?"

Zefa was even more blunt and sarcastic, "Instead of wasting energy on this, why not search for the enemy's whereabouts? What's the point of such superficial efforts? Could it be deceiving ourselves?"

Not only them, but other senior naval officers gathered here generally had strong opinions about this plan.

Doesn't this mean that their navy is useless, unable to bring a sense of security to the people, and can only rely on deception?

As Vice Admiral Tsuru said, this is simply too sad.

Among these naval officers, the one who shouted the loudest was a guy who didn't even have a rank.

Kuzan, who had made an exception to attend the rally because of his strength, was very angry. "General Sengoku, since when has the navy relied on lies to protect justice?"

Beside him, Borsalino quickly pulled him back.

Vice Admiral Garp and Teacher Zephyr dared to question because their status and qualifications are there. What are you, little Karami, saying here?

Sakaski just folded his arms and said nothing.

"There's no better way,"

Zhan Guo sighed, not caring about the doubts of the crowd. He just said helplessly, "We can't let the panic spread any further."

"Now many member states are putting pressure on the government. They feel that fighting those bastards for a New World that has no value in the first place is not worth it. They hope the government will give up the New World! Give up the member states of the New World!"

"If we can't restore their confidence, this operation will probably fail soon."

"..."

Upon hearing this, the officers present showed a solemn expression.

Ultimately, the ruling foundation of the World Government is the member states distributed around the world!

The united will of the member states is theoretically the highest power in the world.

"So, this is the only way?"

Kuzan scratched the back of his head, feeling as if his passion had been poured with a bucket of cold water.

The first action damaged the image of the navy in his mind.

Do you really want to uphold justice in this way?

But no matter what, no matter what the officers thought, the plan code-named "Peace Guardian" was officially implemented.

With the navy as the main force and the CP as the aid, a fictitious war aimed at deceiving the whole world has begun.

So, two days later, the news that the navy fleet had achieved major results spread throughout the world in an instant.

Almost all mainstream media in the world reported this great victory at the first opportunity.

The news said that the navy's fleet successfully ambushed the pirates returning from the North Sea, and the two sides engaged in a fierce battle in a certain sea area in the New World.

Although the pirates were extremely powerful, fortunately all the navy fought bravely and finally severely damaged the pirates' large fleet.

It’s a pity that at the critical moment, Golden Lion used his ability and fled in a panic with many pirate leaders.

There are pictures and truth.

Each newspaper was accompanied by a series of slightly blurry pictures of naval commanders bravely fighting against the evil pirates.

Among them were the hero Garp who knocked the "Golden Lion" away with one punch, Sengoku who made "Roja" vomit blood with one slap, and Zephyr who kicked the giant blue dragon's head with one kick.

At the end of the news, the writer declared in an impassioned tone that the enemy was not as terrible as imagined!

The government and the navy will never allow them to get away with this! We will completely eliminate these evildoers before they cause any more damage!

As a result, the whole world was in an uproar again.

"I knew it! If the Navy can defeat the Rocks Pirates once, they can certainly defeat them a second time!"
