I, a Celestial Dragon!

no problem!

The Five Elders are very welcome.

Make achievements, enhance your strength and prove yourself.

Then you can challenge the rules at any time, kick one of them out and become the new Five Elders.

But what do you want dynamite rock for?

You are not another country. You yourself are a part of Mary Geoise and the prospective helmsman of the world government.

What you have to do is to keep proving yourself, instead of seeking the explosive rock, which is top secret even to the World Government and may trigger a civil war at any time, or even destroy Marijoa and the entire world!

Gawain had known about that thing for a long time, but he never said that he knew it.

The Celestial Dragons also don't know about the Explosive Rock. Only some officers in the Navy who had personally guarded that thing, as well as CP0 and the Navy Admirals, know a little bit of information.

You, the younger generation, want explosive rock?

What do you want that for?

Are you forcing the emperor to abdicate? Are you rebelling?

If that thing were used in other countries, it would immediately cause an uproar.

But if it is used on Mary Joa, it will be a complete failure!

In other words, even if Gawain got the Dynamite Rock, he would hardly be able to use it. He had a base far superior to that of the Dynamite Rock, and he did not need, nor could he demand, the Dynamite Rock to be one of his trump cards.

So, could Gawain arrange for someone to guard the Explosive Rock?

What a joke, the secret that the Five Elders have kept hidden for so long is now known to you and is being guarded by you?

Why do you want to send more troops to guard Explosive Rock? Are you sure you want to guard it instead of seizing it to force a palace abdication?

Are you going to overturn the card table? ! !

In short, it was a restricted area that even Gawain could not access, and Gawain was not surprised that Shanks got such information.

Shanks is also a celestial dragon released on the sea by the Five Elders.

The point is, Gawain chose to stand on the path of kingship, while Shanks chose to stand on the path of dominance.

The two of them have different choices, different angles, different identities, and different forces.

Gawain and Shanks are different!

Chapter 523 Whitebeard’s great plan!

On the other side, Gao Wen's expression showed a little bit of dissatisfaction.

Shanks then nodded in satisfaction.

“It seems that you have realized the seriousness of the problem.

In that case, let’s not talk about that anymore. Let’s have a couple of drinks while you and I are not fighting.

Don't worry, I won't really use things like explosive rocks.

As for you, I just delayed your steps a little.

Even if you can't give your all in the battle two days later, your foundation is there.

If you fail once, there is always next time. Sooner or later you will win completely. This is my sincere wish for you.

I just hope that in your great ambition to dominate the world, you can leave me a chance to meet Raftel!

As for why I do this, haha.

I don't just want to cause you trouble.

But you are not a loyal guy.

I told you not to touch the child I chose. That is the future I intend to watch over and cultivate.

But what about you? Although you didn't harm him as agreed, you made him yours.

Your behavior is really a shame for the bet I placed, which is that extremely important devil fruit!"

Having said that, Shanks smiled, picked up the wine bowl and raised it towards Gawain.

In response to Shanks's action, Gawain's frown relaxed slightly, and he raised his wine bowl.

"You've done something so bad that I wanted you to throw all three of your wine jugs away in exchange for you not doing that.

But you can still drink with me so naturally, Shanks.

Forget it, we each have our own positions, and I don’t blame you for anything you do to me based on your position.

Since you have already made plans, then the day after tomorrow we will just have to rely on our own abilities."

After saying this, Gawain drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Shanks and Newgate looked at each other and also drank the Nine.

After drinking the wine, Newgate wiped the wine off his beard and continued.

"Shanks, you are much smarter than Roger.

But what is dynamite rock? Why haven’t I heard of something that deserves to be treated so seriously by Gawain? "

"Dynamite Rock..."

Shanks hesitated for a moment, then shook his head.

“I also learned about that thing by accident. That thing is hidden on an island in the New World.

There is no way. The thing is produced in the New World, so even the navy cannot station too many troops there for defense.

All they can do is try to keep it secret.

As for the reason why Gawain was afraid of that thing.

Let me explain it this way.

Dynamite Rock is a weapon that can cause a super-large explosion with just the slightest contact or collision.

As for the power of the explosion, I think that as long as there is a rock of explosives as big as a football, it can completely destroy an island!

It sounds like this thing is as powerful as ancient weapons.

That's right, except that they don't have the same mobility and inherent safety as ancient weapons, explosive rocks can indeed replace ancient weapons to some extent.

This is why the Navy and the World Government want to keep them safe."

"Tsk tsk!"

On the side, hearing Shanks' words, Newgate's eyes lit up and then nodded.

“No wonder, it turns out to be a throwing weapon with power comparable to ancient weapons!

Even if this thing doesn't need to be launched, but is simply held in our hands, it can already bring enough pressure to Mary Geoise.

If the two of us take that thing and charge towards Marijoa without looking back, or quietly carry it up to the red earth continent and dive into the sea of ​​Marijoa like Tiger did.

Haha, I think we might have a chance to blow Mary Joa away completely!"

Having said that, Newgate's eyes suddenly changed when he looked at Gawain!

He could not hide his excitement and continued to speak to Gao Wen.

“By the way, Gawain, why don’t you, this old man, and Shanks team up completely!!!

With the explosive rock, Lao Du suddenly discovered a great opportunity!

For you, even if you are a celestial dragon, Marijoa is still an insurmountable chasm before you, isn't it?

You may be able to get a position as one of the Five Elders, but the things you want to do cannot be achieved by just being one of the Five Elders!

So, let us join forces, and let me and Shanks take those pirates and temporarily become your strength!

Then we will take advantage of the battle the day after tomorrow to deliberately reach Marijoa from the Red Earth Continent.

Then, as long as we bring enough explosive rocks, we can completely flatten Marijoa!

As for the innocent people living in Mary Joaquim, they were the poor slaves.

Although I feel a little reluctant, if the slaves are asked to choose between death and destroying Marijoa and then killing all the Celestial Dragons.

I think most slaves would choose to kill the Celestial Dragons!

After we defeat them, the Grand Line will still be under your control, and we pirates can continue to return to the New World to recuperate.

Without the suppression of Marijoa and the World Government, the major member states around the world will inevitably take action, and by then, the whole world will be in turmoil.

At that time, it would be very difficult for us pirates to suppress the major member states in the New World, so don't even think about causing trouble for you! "

At this point, Newgate's expression became more and more excited. He actually felt that this plan was possible.

Facing Gawain's slightly stunned look, Newgate continued speaking anxiously.

"In a place like Sihai, no matter how hard the member states try, they won't achieve much.

You just need to control the great route as the midpoint, whether it is us or the four seas.

You can slowly devour them all!

I don't think there is any need for you to reject me, Gawain. As a leader, you should have the magnanimity that I mentioned!

You already control the navy, with your own strength and the help of Shanks and me!

If with this lineup, we still can't destroy Marijoa and carry the country's 800 years of heritage.

Then we don’t need to fight anymore, it’s better to surrender early.

And if we did!

Then everything we plan now will become a historical achievement that will carry forward the past and an important turning point in the destiny of the world!

So, Gawain, give me an answer!

What on earth are you thinking? Do you want to join my plan?

Let's burn that damned Marijoa to ashes!!!"

boom!

Excited, Newgate slammed the table hard.

On the side, Gawain and Shanks immediately checked their respective Conqueror Haki.

Long after Big Mom left, Gawain and Shanks simultaneously used the Conqueror's Haki, which was the ability to see and hear, to block the observation of everyone nearby.

And now...

I have to admit, after hearing Whitebeard's plan...

Gao Wen was actually a little moved!!!

Because Whitebeard's plan is so feasible!!!

Just imagine what kind of combat power is gathered beneath the Red Earth Continent today!

Just counting the number of monsters, there are Gawain, Mihawk, Gion, Barrett, Aramaki, Ichisho who is on his way, Sakaski, Borsalino, Kuzan, Garp, Sengoku, Kake, Newgate, Teach, Linlin, Shanks, Beckman, Jesus Bu, Lakilu, Wang Zhi, and several old veterans from Roger's group, etc.!

This number is simply terrifying!!!

Plus the remaining, stable deputy emperor level combat power.

A series of masters including Kuma, Xiliu, Ace, Yamato, Hancock, Marco, Joz, Katakuri, etc.

In addition, there is a large number of Seven Warlords of the Sea-level combat forces, and the generals of the Three Emperors Group, etc.

This number of strong men far exceeds that of the Battle of Marineford by several times!

Even if there was no explosive rock, if Gawain could really completely control such a large number of powerful people.

Gawain himself is now qualified to attack Marijoa.

If you can't defeat Mary Geoise's Five Elders, the Knights of God, CP0, the King and Sister Im.

Doesn't Gao Wen think there are other lineups that can defeat Mary Geoise?

In other words, he wouldn't be able to win if he brought so many people with him.
