I, a Celestial Dragon!

Even the vastest, four seas that even the world government finds difficult to completely control, and the four seas where the member states are particularly arrogant and vicious!

I want to get them in the end too!

Your statement, the one that temporarily preserves the lifeblood of the pirates.

When you said that, you didn't care at all whether I agreed or not.

I am sure I can defeat you, but if I want to capture all three of you, the Emperor's team, as well as the legendary pirates like Wang Zhi...

Especially if I were to do something even worse and want to prevent any of you from breaking through...

I can only say that my dreams are a little too unrealistic!

To tell you the truth, Newgate, when I started this war, I left you no chance of resistance!

But even if it is the team led by me, even if it is the team assembled jointly by my Xuanniao and the navy.

We can't catch you all in one fell swoop.

As long as you are determined to leave, no one can leave a monster behind.

Don't worry, the lifeblood of pirates will not end when the war ends.

After all, even if the entire huge system of pirates is to disappear, it can only disappear under politics.

War is only a necessary means before implementing politics."

After saying this, Gawain raised his glass again.

Opposite him, Newgate smiled with satisfaction, because this was the answer he wanted.

He turned around and spoke to Shanks while holding the wine flask.

"Did you hear that, Shanks, Gawain never thought we could win.

This kid is even more arrogant than Roger was back then."

"Even if he is crazier than Captain Roger, you don't think he is crazier than me, right, Newgate!"

Shanks smiled and raised the wine bowl. As he raised it, he continued to speak to Gawain.

“After all, haha, it’s just like Gawain thought we couldn’t win.

And I, I never thought we would lose!"

At this point, Shanks clinked his wine bowl with Gawain's.

Gawain took back the wine bowl and looked at Shanks with interest before drinking.

"Shanks, you are really crazy.

Even if we just count the number of monsters between you and me, you don't have any chance of winning, right?

Let me put myself in your perspective. You think you won’t lose, and I also think I won’t lose. If I were you…”

At this moment, Gawain, who was thinking, was suddenly stunned, and the look he gave Shanks became a little cautious.

Noticing Gawain's look, Shanks grinned and tossed his hair again.

"See, you seem to have thought of it too.

Because the conditions for victory are different for you and me!

Let me calculate the time. Haha, it’s probably about the same time now.

If nothing unexpected happens, there will be a little bit of an unexpected problem with your plan!"

Bolu bolu!!!

Just as Shanks finished speaking, the Den Den Mushi in Gawain's arms suddenly chirped.

Hearing the sound of Den Den Mushi, Gawain frowned and calmly turned off the Den Den Mushi.

He had no intention of answering this kind of call...which was bound to make him lose his composure in the red-haired man's eyes!

At the same time, looking at Gao Wen, whose brows were slightly cautious, the red-haired man nodded slightly.

“It’s okay if you don’t answer, you’ll be sure of that later.

I'll tell you straight, after my entire pirate group arrived, Linlin and I got together and made some small arrangements.

About twenty minutes ago, when the three of us came to invite you, my navigator took the musician and the girl under Big Mom's command who could pass through the mirror to a place that was not of vital importance to you and had never been personally protected by you.

As for the harvest...

I think my buddy has got enough dynamite rocks!"

Having said that, Shanks raised his right hand and slammed the small table in front of him.

“See, Gawain, the conditions for victory are different for you and me.

The victory you are pursuing is one that causes a great enough impact on the entire pirate camp, suppressing us and preventing us from continuing our desire for expansion.

And the victory we pirates pursue.

The victory we seek does not directly force you to liberate the Grand Line again.

The victory we want is a very humble one, just... enough to make you and the World Government afraid to act rashly!

Explosive Rock cannot be used as a bargaining chip to threaten you and the navy to give up the war.

But in some ways, something like dynamite rock is enough to be another face of me, Shanks!

As for you, Newgate, although you have already wanted to die, please believe me.

It is not time for you to die yet, because you are truly the backbone of the pirates.

If his backbone were taken away just like that, then... a backboneless pirate would not be able to take on the responsibility of sharing the pressure with Gao Wenjun.

In short, we will not lose tomorrow's war.

If I'm really about to lose, then the dynamite rock will become my tool to threaten Marijoa in exchange for higher-level orders from her.

Don't worry, Gao Wen, I don't intend to embarrass you.

Therefore, Mary Joa's call will be a buffer for you and me in the future, and at the same time provide a reasonable step for both of us!

Of course, you may think that I, Shanks, can only rely on what little I know...secrets that shouldn't be known by pirates to preserve my remaining face.

Let me put it this way, I have no intention of really destroying the world. The Explosive Rock is really just a stepping stone in my hand, and the war between you and me, even without the Explosive Rock, will not be as optimistic as you think!"

Having said that, Shanks patted his thigh, then waved to Newgate.

“You know, Newgate, for us pirates, there are too many ways to win.

Because we are pirates, we really have the right to be immoral.

As for Gawain, he has too many things to worry about, plus his identity as a Celestial Dragon, he himself is their biggest weakness and flaw! "

Shanks turned back, snickered and narrowed his eyes at Gawain.

“In the war two days from now, we will not make any unnecessary war plans.

Might as well tell you, after the war started.

Whether it's me, or Newgate and Lingling, or Wang Zhi and my old friends on Captain Roger's ship.

All of us monsters have no intention of competing for our opponents this time!

The lifeline of the pirates is almost cut off by you, and you have indeed made the pirates who appear here completely united.

Then you should be able to imagine what these united pirates can do!

I don't care how you arrange tomorrow's battle. For pirates like us, once the war begins tomorrow, it will be the bell to its end!

In our eyes, there are no enemies, only you!

No matter how the war begins, the core of this war is only you!

I will let all the monsters gather together, with you Gawain as their only target, so that the core of the war will always be based on you!

Your eyesight has improved a lot, you may be able to withstand the attack from all of us.

But so what? Even if we get hurt, we will bring you enough pressure!

You are the master of the Xuanniao, the role model of the Tianlong people, and the banner of the new force at sea.

We can use dirty tricks, we can outnumber the enemy, and we can do much, much more.

But you can't!

Even if you win, the existence of Dynamite Rock ensures that I have the bargaining chips!

In this war, as long as you are unable to fight anymore, or you flee left or right, you even just need to retreat slightly.

Then you have already lost!

Trade your personal image for victory in war?

But this is a war without victory!

Likewise, I hope there will be no losers in this war either!

Unlike Newgate and Lingling, I am far from old and there are still many things I can do, especially I have to find enough slates to find my target, Raftel.

I need time, stable enough time.

I don't want to waste my time on a war that is swept up by the tide of pirates.

Whether you block the Grand Route or not, at least it has nothing to do with me.

But I want a sea that is stable enough. Only such a sea will not waste my time!

So, Gawain, promise me one thing.

Promise me that you will turn a blind eye to it a little bit, that is, just open a route that can only allow pirates to escape to the New World quietly.

That route won't embarrass you, but it can make the pirates completely quiet down. You must understand the principle of surrounding three sides and leaving one behind. As long as there is a little hope, the bastards in the New World won't be as determined as they are now!

Once you do this, the pressure you face will be much lighter than it is now, and Mr. Reilly can also take a half-day break occasionally.

As long as you make even a slight step back, I will no longer be a problem to you no matter what the outcome.

Otherwise, for me.

No matter whether the pirates win or lose, I can't get the stability I want!

If the pirates win, then damn it, these guys who were first suppressed and then bounced back will be like every bastard who quit smoking and then started smoking again, with a bigger addiction to wreak havoc on the world and cause trouble!

And if the pirates lose, then until all of the pirates' monsters are dead, wars similar to the one that happened two days later will continue to occur.

Pirates are not the kind of people who give up easily. As long as there is still one person who wants to get something for nothing, they will not disappear. They will only use things like what happened before to create trouble for me, a guy who longs for stability, again and again!!!

They are indeed the source of trouble, but you are the cause of trouble, Gawain!

I respect your choice and decision. I don’t mind you winning. I just hope the sea becomes what you want it to be!

But you have to understand that you should also respect me a little, my friend.

At least let me live a more comfortable life. Even if I am destined to fail, let me go far enough to see the future clearly!"

Having said that, Shanks raised his wine bowl, and his eyes were filled with coldness as he looked at Gawain.

As for Gawain, he met Shanks' cold gaze.

He slowly raised the wine bowl, and then clinked it down heavily!

“Your plan is very good, and the explosive rock is something that Mary Geoise cannot hand over to me for control, and it is enough to cause me trouble.

Especially, when those extremely dangerous weapons are in your hands, Shanks.

Its danger becomes even more unpredictable!"

When he said this, Gao Wen still felt a little dissatisfied.

Is it possible that Gawain doesn't remember the weapon called Dynamite Rock?

That's a real nuclear weapon in the pirate world, a super nuclear bomb that can destroy an island once it explodes.

But the problem is that with Gawain's identity, he has no qualifications to ask for the Explosive Rock!

What is Gawain's identity?

Although he is a celestial dragon that the Five Elders pay attention to, he is ultimately a challenger who is ready to overthrow his superiors!

The Five Elders were really good to him, but the prerequisite was that he controlled his way of overthrowing the powerful within a fairly reasonable range!

The inferior overthrows the superior?
