From the Navy Admiral to the Gotei 13

Diarmait's eyelids twitched slightly, and he really wanted to tell her, you're drinking my tea!

However, seeing Gion's indifferent look, he didn't say anything. It would seem petty, and there was a high probability that Gion would tease him in return.

"Nothing, just calculating the current situation." Diarmuid shook his head.

After he finished speaking, he looked at the kid standing at the door without moving, smiled and said, "It's been a while, Lucci."

As soon as he finished speaking, the little devil quickly said, "Thank you for your care, Lord Diarmait!"

That's right, that brat was Rob Lucci, the one Diarmait had snatched from Stussy in the orphanage.

In the past few years, he has been learning from Teacher Zefa.

Teacher Zefa also likes Lucci, a talented and hardworking disciple, and takes good care of him.

Originally, according to Mr. Zephyr's idea, he was going to send Lucci to the military academy when he was older. After he graduated, with his and Diarmait's protection, Lucci would definitely have a bright future in the navy.

Lucci originally thought that he would follow this route.

As a result, he was summoned early by Diarmuid not long ago.

Gion went to the headquarters in person and asked for Lucci from Teacher Zefa.

"It's nothing, it's your own fault." Diarmuid said with a smile.

After he finished speaking, he waved at Lu Qi, indicating that he should come over and sit down instead of standing.

Lucci hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded and sat down opposite Diarmait.

“How old are you this year?” Diarmait asked.

"Ten years old." Lucci replied softly.

But looking at his appearance, he doesn't look like a ten-year-old kid at all. On the contrary, he looks more like a teenager of fourteen or fifteen.

It's not just that his body has developed well under the training of Teacher Zefa, but mainly because Lucci is too precocious. His temperament doesn't show that he is only ten years old.

If you think about it carefully, he gave people a sense of precocity when he was in the welfare home.

"Ten years old... still a little kid." Diarmait smiled, took out the teacup from under the table and prepared to pour water to drink.

Lu Qi was quite perceptive. He immediately picked up the teapot and started pouring water.

After taking a sip of tea, Diarmait asked again, "Any ideas? Any ideas for the future?"

This question is actually not suitable to ask a ten-year-old kid.

But Lucci didn't feel anything was wrong. After thinking for a while, he said, "Originally, I was thinking of following the teacher's instructions and entering the military academy. If I could become a pillar of the navy like you, Lord Diarmait, and dedicate myself to justice in the future, I would be satisfied and have no regrets. But Lord Diarmait, you suddenly summoned me here. I must have a plan for you, right? So now my plan is to follow your instructions!"

Diarmait's eyes lit up. He had to admit, this kid was really mature. He could speak and was clear-headed.

"I do have ideas and plans for you, but they are very dangerous and will take a very long time, even... ten or twenty years." Diarmuid said softly.

Lu Qi still hesitated. He was not afraid of danger. He knew from childhood that danger always coexisted with opportunity.

But the time-consuming nature of this made him hesitate.

Ten years? Twenty years? I've only lived for ten years!

so long?

What exactly are you going to do?

Diarmait didn't rush him. After a brief hesitation, Lucci said, "Is it for personal use? My Lord, you don't intend to let me officially join the navy?"

"It's a mix of public and private matters, but I'm not saying you won't join the navy. On the contrary, if you agree, I'll arrange for you to officially join the navy today," Diarmait replied after a moment's thought. Lucci, seeing this, thought for a moment, then puffed out his chest and said, "Please command, Lord Diarmait!"

Lord Diarmait had always been kind to me and recommended me to learn from Master Zephyr.

This is a huge favor. If it weren't for Lord Diarmait, he might have been taken to the CP agency.

Lucci has lived in the navy for four years and naturally has deep feelings for the navy, especially since Teacher Zefa treats him very well. In such an atmosphere, how could he have any good feelings towards a place like CP?

Definitely not.

In addition, Lord Diarmait was now being frank with him and discussing these matters with him in a consultative manner.

How could he refuse?

Although I don't know what the arrangement is, Lord Diarmait must have some selfish motives in it, but from what Lord Diarmait said, it is ultimately beneficial to the navy, a mixture of public and private interests.

At the same time, he can immediately join the navy, which is what Lucci cares about very much.

He really wanted to become a real navy right away!

"Hahahaha, I wanted to trick you, but seeing how honest you are, I can't bear it anymore." Diarmait laughed. ...Please give me flowers.

After a brief pause, Diarmuid continued, "I'll tell you what's going on. If you agree, then follow my instructions. If not, that's fine. You're a talented person. As long as you work hard, you'll eventually become a successful person. I also respect your talent and won't do anything to you. I'll still take good care of you. When the time comes, you can return to headquarters and follow Mr. Zephyr. Follow his instructions, join the military academy, and then join the navy, taking one step at a time."

Lucci nodded, feeling somewhat touched, and said, "Yes, Lord Diarmait."

"Well, I plan to have you join the secret special force of the Navy Intelligence Department. SWORD, go to the New World as an undercover agent, join the Whitebeard Pirates, and strive to become a member of the Second Division." Diarmait said.

Lu Qi was dumbfounded at this moment. What the hell?

It sounded like he could indeed join the navy right now, but would he have to go to the New World as a pirate the moment he changed hands? After a moment's pause, Lucci asked, "Lord Diarmait, are you going to take action against the Whitebeard Pirates?"

"It's only a matter of time. But I've already said that your mission is a long-term undercover mission. Publicly, it's to obtain intelligence on the Whitebeard Pirates. Privately, I'm also going to ask you to do something for me." Diarmait said with a smile.

...0 Planting an undercover agent in the Whitebeard Pirates is indeed a matter of official business, after all, it can help them obtain intelligence.

As for why they looked for Lucci, it was mainly because if they were looking for an adult, it would somewhat increase the Whitebeard Pirates' vigilance. Lucci was a kid and very talented, so he could not only reduce the Whitebeard Pirates' vigilance against him, but also show his talents and quickly gain a foothold.

At the same time, a kid like him is insignificant.

Security is high.

As for personal matters, it is to help Diarmait keep an eye on the ambitious Teach.

Diarmait was still very interested in the Dark-Dark Fruit. He had always been a little confused about it.

Is it that the Dark-Dark Fruit can accommodate the power of two fruits, or is it that Teach's special body structure can accommodate the power of two fruits?

Or perhaps a combination of both?

This is a question that has no answer. After all, before trying it, Teach had no idea in his mind and was really doing it with the mentality of gambling with his life.

But no matter what, one thing can be confirmed, that is, the ability of the Dark-Dark Fruit not only greatly restrains those with special abilities, but also, if certain means are possessed, it can be used to seize their abilities.

Once Diarmait mastered this method, he would be able to go a step further and strengthen the navy.

There are many powerful devil fruit users imprisoned in the big prison of Impelton.

If the Dark-Dark Fruit could be used properly, the navy's strength would definitely be greatly enhanced.

not to mention.

Thinking of this, Diarmait touched his chest. Although it was not visible to the naked eye, he knew that his body was also special. There was a black core of unknown use that still existed in his body.

If the Dark-Dark Fruit really had some special properties, if it could really allow him to become a dual-fruit ability user...

He has gravity in one hand and darkness in the other, so doesn't that mean he is invincible?

By then, if he comes up with something like the Chibaku Tensei, he will probably be able to seal even Whitebeard inside and make him unable to move, and then sink the old guy directly into the sea.

If it is not feasible, that's fine. It's better than letting this ability fall into Teach's hands. It's good for the navy anyway.

But the Dark-Dark Fruit is not so easy to find, so Diarmait plans to steal it.

Send Lucci to the Whitebeard Pirates, and after the Dark-Dark Fruit appears... arrange a wave of Blackbeard.

This is not something that will produce results in a short period of time. As Diarmait said, it may take ten or even twenty years to produce results.

That's why he told Lucci this.

After a long silence, Lucci looked at Diarmait seriously and said, "Everything is for justice!"

Chapter 118 Demon Slayer Order! (rd update)

I have just finished arranging Lu Qi's affairs and am preparing to say hello to Chief of Staff Ahe and have him join the Intelligence Department to start work.

Diarmuid still has this power.

What's more, although he hasn't been in charge of those things for a long time, he is still nominally the head of a non-existent organization.

From this perspective, he still has some leadership relationship with the Intelligence Department.

As a result, I haven’t contacted Chief of Staff Ahe yet.

The Den Den Mushi on the table suddenly rang.

Diarmait, Gion, and Lucci all looked over in the direction of the sound.

"A Warring States general?" Gion said after a moment of surprise.

Diarmait frowned, as if he had a premonition, and said, "It seems something is wrong."

It's either Douglas Barrett or O'Hara, right?

During this period of time, the Navy should have found out what was going on.

Thinking of this, he gestured for Gion and Lucci to be silent, then picked up the Den Den Mushi and said, "General Sengoku? What's going on?"

"Diarmuid," Admiral Sengoku called out. After a brief pause, he said in a slightly serious tone, "As the Admiral of the Marine Headquarters, I summon you to report to Marineford immediately."

Diarmait was stunned for a moment, then responded, "Yes, everything is for justice!"

He didn't ask what was going on.

Because the attitude of the Warring States general had already been told to him, it was not convenient to talk about this matter on the Den Den Mushi.

If you have any questions, please report to Marineford first and we can discuss it when we meet.

The two of them didn't talk much afterwards. After a brief greeting, Diarmait hung up the Den Den Mushi.

He turned his head to glance at Gion, then ordered: "Prepare the boat and tell Impelton to pass through."

"Yes." Gion also stood up and said immediately.

Diarmuid looked at Lucci again, smiled, and said, "Wait here at G-7. I'll arrange your affairs after I finish the tasks assigned to General Zhan Guo."

"Yes, Lord Diarmait." Lucci said without objection.

Soon, Diarmait's warships turned from G-7 to Impelton, and then rode the Current of Justice and quickly arrived at Marineford.

As soon as he got off the boat, he saw Kuzan waiting for him at the port.
