Chapter 337 The Tranquility Before the Grand Appearance

Da da da.

In the empty corridor, the sound of Tang Sen's footsteps echoed.

"The tranquility before the grand appearance is always intoxicating."

A sound like a roaring mountain and a tsunami passed through the gaps in the castle and reached Tang Sen's ears, but he remained unmoved and continued to walk deeper into the castle unhurriedly.

Until he came to a door, Tang Sen stopped and knocked rhythmically.

This was just polite, but instead of waiting for the person inside to open the door, Tang Sen pushed the door open and entered.

What came into view was the densely packed screens filling the entire wall, and the soldiers who were busy operating below turned around because of the knock on the door.

"Gentlemen."

Tang Sen smiled: "I'm not late, am I?"

A lieutenant colonel's expression changed and he stood up suddenly: "Who are you?"

"Guest." Tang Sen walked in slowly and closed the door: "Of course, it can also be the host."

"Stop! This is the control room of World Broadcast. No one is allowed to enter! I have never seen you. How did you break in?" The lieutenant colonel reflexively touched the saber on his waist.

"I walked in." Tang Sen smiled: "I didn't encounter any obstruction."

"Sir, could you please move out of the way? You have taken my seat."

"What are you talking about?" The lieutenant colonel pulled out his saber and shouted at the other soldiers: "Catch him!"

There was silence.

The lieutenant colonel was stunned for a moment, and turned back to look at his colleagues: "What are you doing standing there in such a daze?"

"Of course it's because they are not willing to listen to your orders." Tang Sen reminded: "Sir, I suggest you put down your weapons, so that the scene will look better."

"How could--" The lieutenant colonel tightened his grip on the saber in his hand, and he began to realize that something was wrong.

It seems like we have some traitors among us?

No. Everyone is a traitor except himself?

The lieutenant colonel's heart suddenly started to beat violently. What happened in the officers' mess yesterday was a big fuss. I heard that dozens of logistics soldiers in the back kitchen were confirmed to be undercover agents of the Whitebeard Pirates, and they were all imprisoned.

At the time, he thought it was incredible that dozens of undercover agents were crammed into a small logistics department.

Now he suddenly realized that he was naive.

In his own department, everyone except himself is undercover!

"William."

He looked at his deputy and said, "We joined the army at the same time. We have been together almost day and night for more than ten years. How could you?"

"Sorry, Lieutenant Colonel." The major named William showed a hint of apology.

"I know you were a little dissatisfied with being assigned to such a remote department. You hoped that you could make achievements on the sea instead of looking at the screen and dealing with phone bugs every day. However, now is the big opportunity that we have been waiting for a long time. This But World Live!”

The lieutenant colonel shouted excitedly: "As long as nothing goes wrong, we can accumulate enough credit to be transferred to other departments, and even control a naval branch——"

"Lieutenant Colonel, that's not important anymore."

William interrupted the other party and said: "You know the reason why I was assigned here to discuss the World Government and the Celestial Dragons in private."

"There is no room for advancement in the navy for people like me, but... I don't need it now."

"You——" Looking at his colleagues who suddenly became strangers, the lieutenant colonel felt something bad in his heart. Thinking of yesterday's incident, he suddenly felt that he was involved in a huge conspiracy.

The other party's goal is to broadcast live to the world!

His professional sensitivity made him suddenly aware of this possibility that made him tremble. This was the control room of World Broadcast. Once the other party took advantage of this, the consequences would be devastating.

He suddenly felt that the word justice on the cloak on his back began to heat up.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

With that said, the lieutenant colonel's left hand quietly touched the button on the table.

However, a flintlock gun was pressed against the lieutenant colonel's forehead at the same time.

"Lieutenant Colonel, I know you, just like you know me." William said: "So, don't try to press the alarm button, I don't want to kill you."

"For justice!"

The lieutenant colonel roared angrily and threw his body towards the table.

Bang!

Gunfire rang out.

There was silence in the control room.

"Huchi - Huchi -"

Then there was a sharp gasp, and the lieutenant colonel collapsed on the ground, his wrists being held tightly by Tang Sen.

William's hand holding the flintlock gun was also lifted high by Tang Sen. The bullet hit the ceiling, blasting a hole.

"Gentlemen, what we want to do does not have to be at the expense of pointing our guns at our friends."

Tang Sen slowly let go of their wrists, straightened his sleeves, and said, "We are not pirates or thugs, and there is no need to destroy humanity."

"We're doing the right thing, but a lot of people just can't understand it at the moment."

"They'll understand soon enough."

He looked at the lieutenant colonel on the ground. After the last burst of courage, the fear of death finally came to his heart, so that the other person looked a little dazed at this time.

Obviously, he didn't have the courage to do it again.

Tang Sen didn't care about the life or death of the lieutenant colonel. After all, he had already investigated the lieutenant colonel before plotting the control room. The lieutenant colonel was a fanatical supporter of Akainu. His purpose in doing so was just to reduce the risk of accidents - —

After all, he didn't care about one more bystander, but he did mind that Major William made operational errors due to his mentality. Tang Sen knew nothing about the telephone bug communication system.

Of course, warm up for the upcoming performance.

"Mr. Tang——" William opened his mouth but stopped talking.

Tang Sen patted him on the shoulder: "Drink some water and calm down, get ready to start."

"What are you going to do?" At this moment, the lieutenant colonel finally came to his senses and asked in a hoarse voice.

Tang Sen glanced at him, casually pulled out his chair, and sat down calmly.

"Of course it's for—"

"Turn the world upside down!"

He looked at the picture of Marinefando displayed on the screen. Apparently, Marshal Sengoku had finished his speech and told the truth about Portcas D. Ace being the posthumous son of Pirate King Gol D. Roger. Tang Sen could imagine that the whole world was in an uproar because of this news.

And soon, the water in Crescent Bay suddenly arched, and one pirate group after another broke out of the water.

Chaotic exclamations came from the radio device.

"Whitebeard! It's the Whitebeard Pirates!"

"They're really here!"

Tang Sen looked a little more serious, and the soldier next to him knowingly turned up the picture of the pirate ship.

Three huge pirate ships faced all the navies in the square with their bows facing in three directions.

"etc!"

Tang Sen narrowed his eyes slightly.

Next to the three huge ships, there is another pirate ship that looks much smaller. The flag on it is a skull wearing a straw hat.

"Tsk."

Tang Sen leaned back:

"Has the protagonist appeared?"
