Is a god who bleeds still a supreme being?

Those who have submitted to the World Government in the past may be inspired by Fisher Tiger and have the courage to resist!

One or two may not matter, but if left alone, such people will be like a spark that starts a prairie fire, and that will be enough to make the world government feel troubled.

Well, it’s just a worry. After all, the World Government still has the King who can suppress many disobediences, but that ancient weapon... if you can avoid using it, it’s better not to use it!

Li Zhong's proposal will reduce this possibility.

Strip away Fisher Tiger's 'hero halo' of liberating a large number of slaves from the Celestial Dragons, and make him an ordinary pirate who uses this to 'take credit' and show his power in exchange for a position as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, in a similar way to Don Quixote Doflamingo intercepting Tenjo Gold in exchange for a position as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

Turn him from a spiritual symbol into an ordinary pirate.

In this way, the dilemma is naturally resolved.

In this process, the face of the World Government was preserved, Fisher Tiger's life was guaranteed, and no one would hunt down the escaped slaves. Li Zhong completed one of the five indicators.

The only one who was injured was...

The Five Elders who knew the whole truth and felt extremely aggrieved, as well as those bubble-heads who were burned and grimaced!

Li Zhong is now throwing a question to the Five Elder Stars.

That is.

Which is more important, the substance of the World Government, or the emotions of you Five Elders and other Celestial Dragons!

On his side, everything is fine and sunny, but the Five Elders and Bubble Head have to suffer.

On the one hand, although everyone is in a good mood, it may be sowing the seeds of disaster for the world government.

If the Five Elders are really the real controllers of the World Government, they will of course choose to care more about their own feelings. It's just a little trouble. Our World Government has the power to suppress it!

Do you really think that all of our combat power is just for nothing?!

But unfortunately, they are not the real rulers.

The World Government belongs to that master, and the Five Elders are just a group of middle managers. How could they do something that is obviously harmful to the World Government just for their own emotions, and make a decision that is unfavorable to the World Government in the Holy Land of Marijoa, under the nose of that master? !

Therefore, the Five Elders have only one choice, and that is to swallow their anger!

As for what Fisher Tiger meant.

He had no desire for heroic fame.

For him, being able to rescue these "compatriots" who have experienced the same suffering as himself is more important than anything else. One more name or one less name is not important to him.

Because he himself knew very well how weak of a "hero" he was. First, there was no high-end combat force in the Holy Land of Marijoa to stop his actions. Then, Li Zhong intervened from a distance and helped him deal with the pursuing troops. Otherwise, who knows how many slaves on this ship would have died before they could escape the symbolic pursuit of the World Government.

If one's virtue is not in line with his position, disaster will surely come. Although this proverb does not exist in this world, there are similar sayings circulating.

Therefore, he had no objection to Li Zhong's offer of "releasing that shipload of slaves and the World Government will stop pursuing them" in exchange for lowering his reputation to join the World Government and become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

The only thing that is a little resistant is working for the world government.

But Li Zhong has already promised him this: if the World Government asks you to fight pirates, you go. If they want you to do something else, you just refuse and let them contact me.

As Li Zhong expected, the Five Elders hesitated for a while and finally nodded in agreement.

Taking Fisher Tiger's joining the Seven Warlords of the Sea as a starting point, they started the propaganda machine and downplayed the attack on the holy land.

There are no heroes in this world. There is only a fish-man pirate who uses a special loophole to burn down the slave prison, steal the property of the Celestial Dragons, and release the slaves of the Celestial Dragons to "show his worth" in exchange for status. That's all.

The Bubble Heads who knew the truth were given a gag order by the Five Elders.

After the meeting, the Five Elders said, "We don't want to see you again! Go to the Navy Headquarters!"

No need to come back!!

.

.

.

"…Who should be the next Shichibukai?" On the ship heading to the Marine Headquarters, Li Zhong was flipping through the wanted poster.

To be honest, after disgusting the Five Elder Stars this time, Li Zhong was in a good mood.

Intrigued, he began to look for his next target.

To be honest, some of them are hard to find.

After searching for a long time, Li Zhong only found three wanted warrants.

These two cards can disgust the Five Elders, but their strength is too weak, and even the Demon Colonization Suit probably can't help them get back on their feet.

The other one was a wanted poster with enough power, and his evil deeds were listed on it, but Li Zhong felt that these evil deeds were a bit outrageous and did not seem true.

"Well, go check it out when you have time."

The strength of the combat power can be improved if one has various means to help the opponent, and as long as the opponent is a promising talent, the efficiency of growth will be very fast.

If these targets that you are paying attention to are really the right material, you can just cultivate them yourself.

Just when Li Zhong was planning for the future.

A huge warship approached Li Zhong's black-sailed Wind Chime.

Li Zhong's thoughts stopped because he felt a powerful aura from the warship.

When the two ships were still some distance apart, a golden light flashed.

A tall figure wearing a yellow striped suit, short black hair and brown sunglasses appeared on the deck of the Black Sail Windchime.

The moment he saw the person coming, Li Zhong was stunned and subconsciously asked: "...Director?"

Kizaru, the third admiral of the navy whose real name is Borsalino, looked confused: "Huh?"

----

Chapter 342: Exchange of Information with Kizaru

After coming to this world, in order to make the future journey smoother, Li Zhong has been collecting information about this world and many powerful people.

As one of the three admirals of the navy and one of the strongest men in the world, Kizaru Borsalino's information is naturally Li Zhong's key data collection target.

So Li Zhong had already seen photos of Kizaru and other things before he came to the Grand Line when he was still in the North Sea.

How to say it, Kizaru's appearance always makes Li Zhong imagine a childhood memory of his, that is, the principal of Crayon Shin-chan Kindergarten.

At this moment, seeing Kizaru himself, Li Zhong blurted out subconsciously.

Kizaru's confused reaction confirmed that his childhood memories did not take him to this world to be a salary thief for the navy. The two of them just looked very similar.

The world is so vast, it is normal for two people to look alike.

Moreover, there is something called "fate" in the world sea, which is actually the collection of thoughts of countless sentient beings. Under the mixture of fate, having two similar flowers is even more rare and common.

So when Kizaru's confused gaze was cast over, Li Zhong just smiled and said, "Nothing, it's just that General Kizaru, you look a lot like an old friend of mine."

After saying that, Li Zhong saluted with a naval salute: "Captain of the Beihai Navy, Li Zhong."

After hearing Li Zhong's explanation, Kizaru nodded to show his understanding.

The men on this sea are basically all genuine people. The overly high-pressure living environment makes it rare for there to be awkward people. Everyone dares to love and hate, and says whatever they want.

Except for some special occasions, people don't pay much attention to etiquette.

"Captain... it won't be that soon."

"In a few days, I will call you Lieutenant General Li Zhong." Kizaru Borsalino said with a kind expression.

Li Zhong was very polite, and Kizaru did not look down on Li Zhong just because he was several levels higher in status than Li Zhong.

Because Kizaru knows clearly that in this world, all so-called identities are false. Only fists and the power held in the hands are real!

Regardless of whether Li Zhong is a captain, a civilian, or someone else, with his current strength, he is qualified to be on equal terms with himself.

What's more, after learning Li Zhong's domineering style, my combat power has improved a lot. In a sense, I still owe him a favor!

"I hope everything goes well." Li Zhong's lips curled up into a faint smile.

Having said that, Li Zhong didn't really care whether he could be promoted to lieutenant general smoothly.

For him, the most important role of the navy identity is to protect himself from the wind and rain during the period when he has not yet grown up, and to use it as a springboard to reach in-depth cooperation with the World Government.

Now, Li Zhong’s cooperation with the World Government has begun. It doesn’t matter whether his military rank is successfully promoted to lieutenant general or is blocked and can only be promoted to brigadier general. Anyway, no matter what his military rank is, the navy will provide him with the necessary protection.

"It will definitely go smoothly." Kizaru said with an I dare to guarantee it look.

Although Lee Jong-in had not yet arrived at the Naval Headquarters, the legend of Lee Jong-in had already been circulating in the Naval Headquarters.

This time when he came back from a mission, the lookout at the bow saw the Black Sail Wind Chime's warship with a "subspace aesthetic" decoration style from a distance and immediately reported to the ship's highest commander, Kizaru.

Huang Yuan thought about it. Although his usual principle was "it's better to do less than more, punch in and punch out", he still decided to come and meet Li Zhong.

Because he had some things he wanted to reveal to Li Zhong so that he could be mentally prepared to avoid causing even bigger troubles. Otherwise, it would be easier today but more troublesome in the future.

"We already know that the Five Elders asked you to choose the Seven Warlords of the Sea." When saying this, Kizaru was very calm, and there was no extra fluctuation in his tone.

"And we also know clearly what the ultimate goal of the Five Elders is."

The Five Elders have always maintained a certain degree of vigilance towards the Navy, which is under the jurisdiction of the government and is the government's most powerful military agency. Within the Navy, there are many agents directly under the command of the Five Elders of the World Government. At the same time, they have been trying to create internal conflicts in the Navy to prevent the Navy from working as one.

After all, if such an important military agency could be united from top to bottom, the Five Elders would not be able to sleep at night!

Although if something happens to the navy, it will not cause a fatal blow to the world government, but it is inevitable that it will suffer serious damage.

With the interference of the World Government, there are now many factions within the Navy, and each faction has its own "justice". To put it simply, they have their own views on how to regulate the ocean and on the attitude towards pirates and civilians.

For now, the various naval factions are still in a stage of fighting but not breaking up.

If there is no external pressure, these naval bases will certainly fight to the death.

But the situation the navy is facing now is not optimistic. After the Pirate King Gol D. Roger raised his voice and opened the Great Pirate Era with his life, pirates in this ocean have become rampant to the point of being overflowing.

Those powerful pirates are easy to deal with. If it really comes to a battle of combat power, the navy is not afraid of them.

As I said, normally speaking, the biggest difficulty in catching pirates is not fighting with them, but finding them... This ocean is just too big!

The ocean is vast, and if pirates are determined to hide, there is really no good way.

…This is what it was like before Li Zhong came into this world.

Li Zhong's idea of ​​catching pirates in the North Sea inspired the Navy. They have tried to train animals to achieve similar effects as Li Zhong, but the results were not ideal. Currently, the Navy is trying to change its thinking and use devil fruits to do this.

Before he really produces decent results, Li Zhong's value in the navy is irreplaceable. What's more, the pirates that Li Zhong killed are all real military achievements.

Therefore, Li Zhong will not encounter any obstacles in his promotion to military rank, and all departments will do their utmost to cooperate.

After all, if clearing out all the pirates in a sea cannot make him rise quickly within the navy, then how many soldiers would be disappointed!

Even if Li Zhong agrees, there will be countless people who will speak up for him!

but……

"Don't worry about your rank, everything has been arranged, but there are some other things you need to pay attention to. When you enter the Navy Headquarters, you may encounter some bad things."

Chapter 343 What is a Martial God? (Tactical retreat)

"Something bad?" Li Zhong was a little confused.

Kizaru nodded and said, "The Five Elders asked you to choose the Seven Warlords of the Sea in order to create some estrangement between you and us. We are very clear about this."

"Indeed, the Five Elders played a good trick. No matter what they said, the navy would feel uncomfortable about this matter."

"Of course, it's just some internal annoyance. None of our senior naval officers will have any different opinions about you because of this."

"But... we can't express this opinion. We even have to express some completely opposite opinions!" Kizaru's face looks a little wretched, but once he gets serious, he is also quite majestic. He now has an expression of 'do you understand' on his face.

Does Li Zhong understand?

Of course he understands.

Li Zhong didn't know much about politics, but as the saying goes, one must have seen pigs run even if he hadn't eaten pork. Having read famous works such as Journey to the West and Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he thought of a famous plot that was somewhat different from his current situation but very similar in core.

The implication of Kizaru's words was very clear.

That is, even if everyone in the navy agrees on one thing, they cannot express their agreement in public.

You have to perform a self-torture tactic with the Five Elders.

You don't have to go too far, at least you have to create the illusion of apparent discord.
