Chapter 649: The Navy’s Way of Retreat

Sandersonia stepped forward and recited very deftly: "Your Majesty Seventh Warrior Boa Hancock has special authority to challenge Skyler Grey, and the navy and world government must not stop it for any reason.

The time is determined by Boa Hancock, who has the special authority to challenge Skyler Grey once a year, and the location is subject to Skyler Gray's location, once a year, and cannot be accumulated.

The special authority of this article is from the time when Boa Hancock becomes the Shichibukai of the King, until Boa Hancock quits the Shichibukai of the King, Skyler Gray quits the navy, or the system of the Shichibukai of the King is abolished. effective. "

After finishing speaking, Hancock looked at the flying squirrel and said, "What? Is Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel's authority a higher priority than the Shichibukai Regulations? Or is this what Lieutenant General Skyler meant?"

The flying squirrel looked livid and wanted to refute. After all, Hancock did not challenge Skyler last year, and half of this year has passed. Hancock has no signs of taking action. Why did he act at this time?

Moreover, this damn Shichibukai system will be abolished in one month, and Hancock will not have the right to challenge Lieutenant General Skyler by then, but now

The flying squirrel snorted, and said, "There is still nearly half a year left in this year, and you can definitely initiate the challenge after the World Conference is over. Why do you have to do it at this time?"

"Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel. Are you teaching my concubine how to do things? This concubine is going to exercise this privilege today. You just need to say whether you will let me or not?"

Hancock looked bullying, while Flying Squirrel's face was very ugly. He wanted to say that even if Hancock challenged Lieutenant General Skyler, he would be beaten, and there was no possibility of victory.

But this is Hancock's right. It is her business that she likes to be beaten, and no one else has the right to stop it.

It was such a ridiculous privilege that the flying squirrel couldn't refute. His chest kept rising and falling, obviously very annoyed, but in the end, he could only grit his teeth and say, "Then wish you a smooth trip!"

After finishing speaking, he turned his head and squeezed out the word "let go" amidst the mutinous cheers of his team members.

Amidst the cheers of the navy, the warship moved out of the way and no longer blocked the fleet of the Nine Snake Pirates, allowing them to sail out of the windless belt and head towards the Red Earth Continent, which is also the direction of the New World.

At this time, the members of the Flying Squirrel seemed to have regained their senses, and many of them had ugly expressions on their faces, and some even wanted to step forward to explain.

But the flying squirrel stopped them with a wave of his hand. This group of people still needs to grind like hell before they can resist Hancock's temptation, but not now.

Now, what has to be done is to report what happened just now to the headquarters. He was persuaded by Hancock's King Shichibukai privilege and Lieutenant General Skyler.

But it doesn't mean that the navy can only let Boa Hancock take any action, and he has no authority, which doesn't mean that higher levels don't have authority.

And Vice Admiral Skyler is in the New World, as long as Hancock is within the 2,000 nautical miles controlled by the navy, he will really challenge Vice Admiral Skyler.

Then you only need Lieutenant General Skyler to injure Hancock for ten days and a half months, and then everything will be easy. If Hancock intends to enter Totland, then he will be under siege. once.

Thinking of this, the flying squirrel quickly dialed the phone bug, and after the transfer, he explained the situation to the crane, but the crane did not blame the flying squirrel, after all, the crane had no better way for a while.

After all, it is still uncertain whether Qi Wuhai gathered spontaneously or sporadically, or was planned by a leader, but no matter what kind, strong obstruction is definitely not enough.

Because no matter what, the Navy's overemphasis on the Shichibukai will reveal some information that should not be disclosed. If it is the latter, it may alarm the four people who have already returned to Totland.

If it was really planned by someone, then they have already guessed that the Royal Qiwuhai system may be abolished, but after the abolition, the attitude of the world government towards them is still uncertain.

If the navy launches an attack on Nine Snakes at this time, it is undoubtedly the most dangerous signal, and it is equivalent to directly telling the current Shichibukai that once the system is abolished, they will be arrested or even beheaded by the navy.

In this way, the few people gathered in Totland who may not have reached a consensus will form a group. At this time, the situation that Sakaski and Rossinanti are most worried about will appear.

Therefore, even if it has already sent unfavorable signals like Boya Hancock, it should be terminated at this time, so that the Shichibukai can't figure out the attitude of the navy and the world government.

For others, having a potential threat is enough to unite them, but for those Shichibukai, it is not necessarily so.

Especially Katakuri and Mihawk, both of them have lofty hearts. Katakuri is the emperor of the new world, so it is naturally impossible to commit himself to others.

As for Mihawk, although he has not established his own faction and is far from being the "boss", he has never joined any faction either.

Over the years, whether it is the navy, pirates or the forces in the underground world that walk in the middle of black and white, they have invited Mihawk to join them more than once.

Ke Mihawk has always refused, even if he is willing to become the king of Shichibukai, Sengoku used some means to make him choose between two friends.

Even with this trick that can be called a bit of "low work", after Mihawk became the king's Shichibukai, he never really fulfilled the obligations that a Shichibukai should perform.

It is almost impossible for such a person to take him under his command.

If Mihawk really wants to take refuge in a certain force in exchange for stability after the abolition of the Qibukai system, then the fact that the original Qiwuhai alliance is not the best choice.

He can join the navy. As long as Mihawk dares to speak, the navy will dare to ask for someone. Unless Mihawk first feels that the navy cannot accept him, he may consider other forces.

As for other forces, the best choice is not the reorganized Seven Wukai, but the Red Hair Pirates established by his friend Red Hair Shanks.

Of course, it doesn't mean that Mihawk doesn't have the possibility to join other forces, or to form forces with other Shichibukai, it's just that the possibility is low, unless there are other factors.

Crane didn't have such blunt worries as Sakaski, and had her own thinking, but it didn't mean she didn't pay attention to this matter, after all, she was near the water first.

The reorganized Shichibukai may not be the best choice for Mihawk, but it is the closest choice to him. Once he was still staying in Totland, the signals sent by the navy and the world government made him feel insecure. He still has the possibility of reorganizing forces with the other Qi Wuhai, so he has to guard against it.

As for the remaining people in Qibuhai, Hakuna is the one who will not have any accidents after the Qibuhai system is abolished, unless the Dragon Palace Kingdom breaks with the world government at the World Conference.

As long as the Dragon Palace Kingdom maintains its relationship with the world government, then the Qiwuhai system for hundreds of years will be abolished, and Haku will disband his Murloc Pirates at the worst.

Then, with the pirates of the Murloc Pirates, they seamlessly joined the guard team of the Dragon Palace Kingdom.

Bartholomeo Bear doesn't need to worry even more, after all, he still has the entire Sobel Kingdom implicated in him, and it is impossible to mix with people like Katakuri who turned from pirates to Shichibukai.

The two people that Crane was least worried about had no intention of leaving for Totland at all. The surveillance of the Navy today is not only aimed at Nine Snakes.

Both the Dragon Palace Kingdom and the Sobel Kingdom were also under surveillance. Haku was really working hard on the reconstruction of the Dragon Palace Kingdom and the World Conference three days later, and had no intention of leaving at all.

Although Xiong did not show up in the Sobel Kingdom, there is no news of him in the New World, and the navy's garrison in the Sobel Kingdom is a signal to Bear, which Crane believes he can understand.

In addition, the remaining Cavendish is just a child. He appeared in Totland only because he lived in Totland and he was not threatening.

As for the last Bucky, Crane valued Bucky more than Sakaski and Rosindi paid him more attention. In the past, some people always said that Germa was a warmonger and Beast Kaido was a warmonger.

But in Crane's view, in this era, the only one capable of being crowned with this title should be Bucky.

How terrifying is Bucky's intervention and influence on this era? Let's put it this way, in wars or battles between franchised countries or some central and careful forces, both sides of the battle may be mercenaries under Bucky's banner.

When the battle breaks out, both sides may not do anything, just stand in place, waiting to hire their forces, call Bucky, and then decide the outcome of the war based on the bargaining chips of both sides.

And the higher the bid, the more dangerous it is, and the more beneficial it is for Bucky.

Because the higher the bid, the higher the follow-up price of the other party must be. It also reveals a message that the two franchise countries/powers are very rich, and Bucky will not only charge the party with the higher bid.

The side with the lower bid will not only lose the war, but Bucky will know all about his family fortune, and he will take it all.

At the same time, the joining country with the highest bid will be inexplicably known to others. For a certain war, he not only used up his own troops, but also paid a lot of money to hire Bucky's mercenaries.

At this time, others will take over the victorious allied country, and then use less money and fewer troops to win the war smoothly.

Bucky does not have any after-sales service. After the war is over, the money and the goods are settled, so the cooperation will be terminated. After the customer falls into war again, Bucky will not maintain it unless the customer continues to pay.

And if you continue to pay, it means that the highest bid will win, and then there will be a franchise country that bids high but is no longer rich.

This vicious circle made Bucky's courier company develop into a giant crocodile in just over a year.

Because there are too many wars in this era, wars between franchised countries, wars between franchised countries and revolutionary forces, wars between franchised countries and pirates, wars between franchised countries and underground forces/mafia.

This special era gave birth to Bucky and his Bucky Express company. In another era, even if it was just... ten years ago, or even five years ago, this kind of thing would not have happened.

In Crane's view, Bucky and his courier company are not the most threatening time, because Bucky Express can only intervene in some grassroots wars.

Because in Baki Express, there are not many high-end combat power, at most there are some people from level.5, and the number of these people is not too many,

Most of the prisoners who escaped from level.5 or level.6 were captured or even killed during the cleanup after the top war and the operation with Kuzan.

Prisoners of level 4 and below are not very threatening, and may have an overwhelming advantage in the war between the franchise countries, but they cannot fight hard battles.

But once Bucky Express joins forces with the Charlotte family, Mihawk and even the Nine Snake Pirates, his threat level will directly catch up with the Revolutionary Army.

This world cannot afford to be devastated by another behemoth like the Revolutionary Army.

After keeping the flying squirrel at a distance and continuing to follow the Nine Snake Pirates, Crane hung up the phone bug and came to Sakaski's Marshal's office.

"Tuk Tuk Tuk ~"

"Come in."

Sakaski put the speech in his hand back into the drawer, looked at the crane that walked in, and asked, "Lieutenant General Crane, is there any new news?"

Crane nodded and said, "Nine Snakes have also set off for the new world, and according to Flying Squirrel, Hancock has brought almost everyone in Amazon Lily with him."

Hearing the news, Sakaski raised his hand to cover the throbbing right eyelid, and said, "Didn't the flying squirrel stop it? Or did the Nine Snakes attack them?"

Crane shook his head and said, "Hancock used her privilege to challenge Skyler, and Flying Squirrel was worried that the forced stop might further draw Shichibukai's attention, so he let it go.

But the old man asked him to follow the nine snakes, lest they use the excuse of challenging Skyler to sail to Totland. "

"so."

Sakalski rubbed his eyelids again, and then said: "I see, so, Lieutenant General He, please help me contact Skyler and implement Hancock's challenge to her.

I already talked to her on the phone this morning, if I contact her again, I'm afraid it will be offensive, and you can also confirm the location of Lieutenant General Schuyler and Zhanye Detachment.

If the Nine Snake Pirates are not going to the location of Lieutenant General Skyler, then ask the communication department to assist, quickly cut off the communication signal between Nine Snakes and the outside world, and arrest them directly. "

Hearing Sakalski's soft yet hard attitude, Crane also couldn't laugh or cry. When dealing with Skyler and Zanye Detachment, Sakalski was extremely soft, as if he was afraid of disturbing them even if he breathed.

But in the face of other people, even Amazon Lily, a force whose everyone has the ability to be armed and domineering, can easily say the extremely tough words of direct arrest.

What the hell is going on with this navy? It's not just Sakarski, even Crane feels a headache when he thinks of contacting Skyler.

But since Sakaski gave the order, Crane had to carry it out. She nodded and asked again: "By the way, you said in the morning that you wanted to contact Ace and Luo about the matter. How is it?"

Hearing this, Sakalski finally breathed a sigh of relief and said, "As Lieutenant General Schuyler predicted, Totland did not attack Ace and the others, and even received them as guests.

But there is also bad news, that is, Ace said that the Revolutionary Army will not stay in Totland for too long. Sabo will leave after tonight, and it will be difficult to follow the Revolutionary Army's clues. "

Crane pondered for a while. As the chief of staff of the Revolutionary Army, Sabo must have represented the Revolutionary Army when he attended the tea party in Totland.

It was only the second day of the tea party, and Sabo was about to leave. The secret behind this was worth speculating about, but what was certain was that the Revolutionary Army should be planning to make a big move in the near future.

After all, the royal families of many franchise countries have set off for Marie Gioia, which means that a large number of franchise countries have temporarily lost the people who have the absolute right to speak.

When marching and fighting, the most taboo thing is indecision. Once the revolutionary army launches an attack on the allied countries at this time, the troops of the allied countries that have lost their absolute orders may be sluggish.

And with Drago's temperament, it is estimated that at this time, there will be some news, such as joining the royal family to give up his own land, and seeking asylum in Marie Joa.

This kind of trick is not clever, but it is very useful. After all, the army of the joining country is serving the royal family of the joining country, helping the joining royal family to protect its kingdom.

But the royal family who were supposed to command the battle, and even fight side by side with them, left their kingdom at such a critical juncture and went to Marie Gioia, which had the strongest defense.

There was no need for these soldiers to believe Drago's nonsense, as long as these words affected their mentality, then this trick had already played its role.

Perhaps Sabo left the tea party early to plan such a thing, but the recent trend of the revolutionary army made He not very sure, and he was deeply afraid that something more serious than this would happen.

Of course, Sabo's departure from Totland can also be good news. After all, neither she nor Sakaski was willing to mention a situation before.

That is the tea party, not only Qiwuhai's "self-help", but also the alliance between Qiwuhai and the revolutionary army.

Regardless of whether it is Rossindi, Sakaski or Crane, they all have the ability to think of this, but the reason why they didn't say it before is because the navy is completely unable to solve this situation.

Now that Sabo left shortly after the tea party started, does it also mean that the Revolutionary Army has no intention of joining forces with Shichibukai? It's not a good thing, but it's enough to make people breathe a sigh of relief.

Crane shook his head, cleared his mind, looked at the worried Sakaski, and said with a smile: "Sakaski, after becoming a marshal, you seem to be less courageous than before.

If it was you before, you should immediately order Ace and Luo to split into two groups, one team will continue to be stationed in Totland, and the other team will pursue the revolutionary army. "

Hearing what Crane said, Sakaski reached out and rubbed his cheeks, and said, "Really? It seems that I was too impulsive before.

Given the current situation of the Navy, even if it is just dealing with any one of them, it is already difficult enough, if the Revolutionary Army becomes the enemy of the first echelon of the Navy in advance."

Crane looked at Sakalski, suddenly pulled out his chair and sat down, and said bluntly: "I want to hear your real thoughts, pay attention, they are real thoughts."

Crane doesn't believe that Sakaski has suddenly become a "smart general" who thinks about the future. Compared with before, Sakaski really knows how to take care of the overall situation.

But a person's nature is difficult to change. Even if he takes the position of the navy, Sakalski may not be able to hide his inner ambition.

If Katakuri, Shanks, and Kaido appeared in front of Sakaski at this time, then Sakasky would probably still choose to shoot directly against the three without thinking about whether he could 1v3 question.

Since this morning, after Crane learned about Totland from Sakaski, Sakaski has intentionally or unintentionally avoided the matter of the Revolutionary Army.

Even when he said that Sabo was about to leave Totland, Sakaski did not show his disgust when talking about Shichibukai, but deliberately slipped past this question.

Crane knew that she was the same. When faced with the problems of the Revolutionary Army, she always had a strange feeling. She knew the source of her strangeness.

She also wondered if Sakalski was thinking the same as she was.

Sakaski also fell silent at this time, looking at Crane's calm and emotionless face, after a long time, he said: "With Skyler here, I am afraid that one day, we will not be hostile to the Revolutionary Army." .”

Hearing that Sakaski still spoke the answer in Crane's heart, the calmness on Crane's face also disappeared. He sighed, and his body, which was sitting straight on the chair, hunched down a little. Then he leaned back on the chair and said :

"Since when did you think so?"

Sakalski shook his head and said, "I don't know, don't you think I'm wrong?"

He also shook his head and said: "If I talk to you about this matter as a naval officer, I will not tell you right or wrong, but will directly report to the World Government.

But the old man sometimes wonders, will one day, the navy no longer be the navy of the world government, but the navy of another new government, such as the new government formed by the revolutionary army led by Dorag? "

Hearing that Crane was so "rebellious", Sakaski couldn't be angry, because if such a thing was put on ten years ago, it might be a big treason, but five years ago, Sakaski would not hesitate to express their protest.

But now, especially after the execution of the Celestial Dragons, who is destined to break with the world government in the near future, now Sakaski really wants to consider another path for the navy.

Sakalski thought for a while and said, "Do we need to find a time to have a good talk with Skyler?"

"What are you going to talk to her about? Talk about mutiny with the navy, and ask Skyler to recommend you to Drago? Don't forget, we forced Drago to leave with our own hands more than 20 years ago."

Crane smiled and shook his head, and said: "What's more, no matter what era it is, no matter who it is ruled by, this sea needs people who can maintain stability.

We don't need to find Drago, but he needs to find us. "

"Hahaha~ That's right, our navy should do a good job in maintaining the stability of the sea."
