I, a Celestial Dragon!

So, plans that come up on a whim are really unreliable. I was really impulsive this time.

That’s all for today’s drink, Gao Wen. We’ll see each other the day after tomorrow.

Don't forget what I said. If possible, spare Lingling's life and help my surviving sons.

In return, haha, sooner or later you will know what I give you in return.

As for now.

Goodbye, Gawain!"

After saying this, Newgate stood in the sea breeze and looked at Gawain with a smile.

Seeing that Newgate wanted to see him off, Gawain nodded immediately, then stood up and left.

A moment later, thunder gathered on the dock, and Gawain's figure slowly appeared.

And at the moment when Gawain appeared.

Sakaski hurried to Gawain's side.

"Sir, you didn't answer my call just now!

Just two minutes ago, I received a call from Marshal Zhan Guo!

Kuzan might not be able to participate in the war the day after tomorrow, so he needs to take his people to the New World!

Not long ago, Shanks' navigator and ship doctor, along with their monkeys, attacked the Dynamite Rock production and storage base!

The amount of explosive rocks they stole was enough to blast a small gap in the Red Earth Continent!

Therefore, Marijoa issued a death order that our navy must send a team headed by the admiral to recover all the explosive rocks.

On the other hand, Kuzan will also have to stay at the Explosive Rock Production Base for a while!

so……"

"So Shanks's divine move not only gave them a difficult-to-handle trump card, but also drove away one of our main forces..."

Gawain continued, taking over what Sakaski said.

“As expected of Shanks, even in a desperate situation on paper, he can come up with a solution that is sufficient to break the situation.

If this happens, we may be in big trouble the day after tomorrow."

As he spoke, Gawain took a sip of wine.

While considering his drink, he looked at the midday sun.

"Aramaki and Barrett have finished their fight, right? Let's eat then.

The tradition of the Xuanniao cannot be abandoned. No matter what, we should hold a party to welcome the new crew members.

Come, tell Zhepu that he might have a hard time today.

Also, Barrett, Aramaki, come to me!"

"Roger that, new boss!"

"Got it, Captain!"

After hearing Gawain's words, Huangmu and Barrett came to Gawain one after another.

Looking at the two guys, Gao Wen asked with amusement.

"Well, who won?

I was so serious in my previous conversation with Whitebeard and Red Hair that I didn’t see any results.”

"Ha, there's no such thing as winning or losing, new boss!"

Hearing Gaowen's words, Huangmu responded with a wry smile.

“This guy is quite capable, at least I didn’t get too much advantage from him.

As for the outcome, neither of us has even used the power of our devil fruits, so it’s not even at the stage of deciding the winner!

But I think I will definitely win, because Boss Sakaski and I are both nature-oriented.

We in the Natural History Department are the strongest. Boss Gao Wen is also in the Natural History Department, right?

I said we are the strongest!!!"

"cut!"

As soon as Huangmu finished speaking, Barrett on the side said with disdain while chewing the air with his mouth.

“Natural fruits are indeed very powerful, but they also depend on who can use them.

As for you, haha, look at your weird appearance!

In the heart of the dead river?

Do you think you are the extreme one?

Unscrupulous gangsters!"

After giving Huangmu a compliment, Barrett nodded leisurely to Gawain.

"Captain, haha, there's a party tonight, right?

That's great. I'll go take a shower and tidy up my hair and beard.

I don’t know how many women will be at our party, but at least I want to dress neatly.

Finally leaving the cramped apartment in Impel Down, I’m looking forward to the hot springs and hot baths!”

After saying that, Barrett turned around and left without caring what Gawain had to say.

Barrett knew that he was a fighting guy and he didn't want to participate in any discussions or consultations.

Since he was not as skilled as others, he was defeated by Gawain.

The captain told me to do whatever I wanted, without a second thought.

Anyway, the target is always the enemy, so just kill the enemy and that’s it!

On the side, watching Barrett leave leisurely.

Huangmu came closer to Gao Wen and said to him with a smile.

“Brother, you see that guy is very arrogant, he doesn’t even listen to what you have to say.

Or how about you send me someone so I can calm him down and teach him a lesson?

If I rely on myself, it’s not that I can’t do it, it’s just a little difficult and a waste of time.

What do you think?

"I don't think it's very good, Huangmu."

Gao Wen patted Huang Mu's shoulder in amusement and continued with a smile.

“The reason I called you two here is just to say welcome to you.

As for Barrett, I never expected that guy to respect me. His character only requires obedience, and he will only obey.

Okay, that’s all I have to say. Go and have some rest.

Keya, send some of our clothes to Huangmu, and then arrange a room for him."

"Yes, my lord."

Ke Ya nodded hurriedly, then took Huang Mu away.

Huangmu shook his head towards Gao Wen, which was his greeting.

After the greetings, he bent over with a smile and walked slowly behind Keya.

While strolling around, he also jokingly chatted with Keya about all sorts of things on the Xuanniao.

It can be seen that Huangmu is a very sociable person, and his personality is really no different from those Japanese gangsters.

Are the gangsters just being so servile and making jokes in front of the boss's secretary?

From this we can see that, at least in terms of integrating into the Xuanniao, Huangmu is much faster than Barrett.

Not far away, one saw Huang Mu walking away carefree with his butt swaying.

Sakaski shook his head and smiled bitterly.

“Sir, Huangmu has always had this kind of personality, and this is probably a common problem among our group of monsters.

Without enough persistence, no one can become a monster.

And every person who becomes a monster, at least, has a solid and unshakable character.

Barrett is a real nuisance, but luckily you have the ability to control him.

Although Huangmu is lazy, please rest assured that he will not hold us back in the battle.

Anyway…”

Having said that, Sakaski pondered for a moment, then frowned unhappily.

“Anyway, let’s talk about Dynamite Rock.

Once Shanks gets his hands on that thing, we must be prepared for them to use this weapon in the war!

Therefore, I strongly suggest that the scheduled battlefield be changed from the frontier outpost of the Red Earth Continent under your feet, to the sea area at least 200 kilometers away from the Red Earth Continent towards the New World!

In that case, even if the other party uses explosive rocks, it will not harm the Red Earth Continent and cause turmoil in Mary Geoise.

As for the inconvenience of fighting at sea, if you adopt my suggestion, I will call Marshal Zhan Guo immediately.

I will let Borsalino provide support to the dynamite rock collection base first, and then bring Kuzan back.

At that time, we can use Kuzan's ice age to create an ice continent as a foothold in the war class.

You see...?

Sakaski looked up and waited for Gawain's answer.

Facing Sakaski's expectant eyes, Gawain thought for a moment and then shook his head.

"No need!"

After a straightforward refusal, Gawain patted Sakaski on the shoulder.

"Although Shanks got the Dynamite Rock, it is precisely because he got it that the Dynamite Rock will not become a problem for us."

"But, sir, we can't let down our guard against explosive rocks, weapons that can easily destroy an island, just because of the so-called pirates' personalities!

The performance of the explosive rock is there. Once there is any sign of its use, the trouble we will face will be beyond our ability to bear!

Even if the opponent is Shanks, we must not let our guard down!

What's more, even if he doesn't want to use the explosive rock, we can't be sure that he can guarantee the safety of the explosive rock!

He can snatch the Explosive Rock from the World Government, so won't other pirates who get the news snatch those things from him?"

Having said this, Sakaski turned his head and looked into the distance with hatred.

That is the direction where the pirates are constantly gathering.

Sakaski gritted his teeth, turned back and continued speaking to Gawain.

“So, sir, I still suggest that we push the battle line into the sea. Only in this way can the explosive rock not pose a threat to Mary Geoise!

I……"

"I know what you say makes some sense, but you should know that I have my own reasons too."

Gawain raised his hand to stop Sakaski from speaking, only for him to shake his head and speak softly.

“The reason why I don’t want to change the battlefield is because even if we move the battlefield, we may not be able to guarantee the safety of the red earth continent below Mary Geoise.

After all our main forces are transferred to the open sea to fight the pirates, what if the elite pirates carrying explosive rocks turn to attack the docks under our feet and the red soil continent behind us?

If the other party possesses the explosive rock, it actually has the initiative to carry out dangerous actions.

Rather than relying on changing my position to avoid that danger, I prefer to put the danger right under my nose!

It's right here, right under our feet. Even if the war gets to the point where explosives really have to be used, we can counterattack immediately.

We have never lacked speedsters, and at the same time, there are more than one or two people who possess spatial abilities.

Luo, me, or even Yixiao can remotely control the movement trajectory of the explosive rock at the first moment. "
