Chapter 610 The Collapse of Era Gears

The smile on Taotu's face suddenly stiffened.

She really didn't expect Garp's statement.

However, facing the looks from everyone, Taotu still nodded silently and said, "Mr. Garp is indeed a wise man."

"Cha Dou and I have been in the Navy Headquarters for a long time, and have been serving as Vice Admirals for a long time."

"There are constant rumors within the headquarters that we are candidates for general, but the position of general has not been available to us for a long time."

Having said this, Taotu's slender fingers tightened on Jin Kunluo around his waist and said, "If we face Akainu, Qingzhi and the others, we can be convinced."

"It's just that I would be a little unwilling to let an outsider suddenly surpass us and become the so-called fourth major force."

The slightly evil words echoed on the deck and could not be dispersed for a long time.

Looking at the stubborn peach rabbit on his pretty face, Garp sighed helplessly and said: "You little girl's temperament is indeed the same as that of a crane, you won't admit defeat!"

"Qingzhi did say this, but when Laxus was brought into the Navy Headquarters, he was only a recruit instructor, not a frontline combat member."

"What's more, between you and Cha Dou, he is obsessed with the position of general. If you ask me to evaluate, that boy is not the same as you. Instead, like me, he likes to make soy sauce."

"As for if you want to bring bad luck to him, it seems that next time you can only do it by returning to the Navy headquarters. He did not return with our ship."

No?

Taotu's tense expression suddenly relaxed.

She had actually guessed this outcome early on.

After all, Sengoku made an exception by dragging Laxus into the navy recruit camp to serve as a recruit instructor.

But he is still not a formal combat member of the navy, and he is even less able to participate in such an important encirclement and suppression mission.

It's just that after Peach Rabbit learned that Qingzhi and Akainu made a big fuss at the Supreme Council for Laxus, she felt a little unhappy and couldn't help but come here to try her luck without permission.

"Mr. Karp, you are right, but Taotu still hopes to fight with him." Taotu came back to his senses and said.

"Since Laxus is not accompanying the ship, Peach Rabbit will not delay the business and leave first."

After leaving these words, Taotu turned around and jumped directly onto the single-masted boat docked next to the warship.

Immediately, with two accompanying navy soldiers at the helm, he quickly left.

Looking at this scene, Garp sighed helplessly.

There are very few people in the navy who can be indifferent to fame and fortune.

"Mr. Karp, why didn't you say anything just now?" Bolt said suddenly.

Garp came back to his senses, rolled his eyes, and said, "What did you say?"

"Tell Taotu, your swordsmanship can't break through to the supreme level of swordsmanship, your physical skills can't reach the level of the six secrets, and you don't have the awakening-level Devil Fruit ability, so you can't become the fourth most powerful person?"

"You are deliberately making this little girl cry. She works very hard, but her obsession with becoming a general will actually become a stumbling block."

As he spoke, Garp waved his hand and said, "I don't want to deal with such annoying things."

"Now, I still want to see what Laxus's expression would be if he knew that Peach Rabbit was causing trouble for him."

Looking at Garp, who looked like he was disrespectful, he just picked his nose and ran back to the cabin to sleep.

In addition to being helpless, the navy soldiers present also expressed more or less inexplicable hope.

For this kind of competition, which rarely occurs in the Navy Headquarters, it is a huge event.

Two days later, Shampoo Islands, estuary No. 13.

After the navy searched for the Skeleton Demon, there was no trace of the pirate for a long time.

An old, slightly slovenly figure was half-leaning on the tree trunk. From time to time he took out the wine bottle and poured one or two sips into his mouth.

The cloudy old eyes, under the glasses, were shining with a trace of light.

"You guys are here, Whitebeard, aren't you planning on coming out to see me, an old friend?"

Riley suddenly spoke.

If outsiders heard this, they would definitely be shocked.

boom!

The calm sea surface suddenly rolled up.

Under the large waves, a black shadow of a ship broke through the water directly.

The soap bubble that originally enveloped this small pirate ship collapsed in response.

A figure like an iron tower, holding a naginata, appeared in front of Rayleigh's eyes.

Right behind Whitebeard, there were two other figures. Rayleigh nodded slightly, took a sip of wine and said, "Brother Marco, we haven't seen each other for many years."

"As for the other one, Whitebeard, you mentioned in the phone bug. Is he Captain Roger's son, Fire Fist Ace?"

Not long ago, Rayleigh was still in the auction house, playing auction games to kill time.

However, the call bug from Whitebeard obviously dispelled his interest, so he came here early in the morning to wait.

After all, Fire Fist Ace is Captain Roger's son.

"Haha, Rayleigh, you are just as impatient as Roger." Whitebeard laughed, took out a newspaper with his backhand, and threw it over.

"However, I heard that last time, you and the Skeleton Demon almost turned the Chambord Islands over. That boy was really ruthless and killed the Celestial Dragons in front of the general."

"I originally thought that you would be kidnapped by him, but I didn't expect that you would still be here."

Regarding the turmoil that day, not to mention the World Government and the Navy Headquarters, even the major forces at sea were shocked.

Not only because of the Skeleton Demon, but also because of Pluto Rayleigh.

It can be said that in the eyes of many people, Rayleigh, who had retired for a long time, actually got involved in such crazy things.

Then he should leave with the Skeleton Demon afterwards.

Faced with Whitebeard's questioning, Rayleigh did not respond immediately. He took the newspaper with his backhand, looked at the headlines on it, and fell into silence.

"One day ago, the fleet led by Admiral Akainu of the Navy Headquarters was attacked by Walder, the World Destroyer. The two sides started a fierce battle. Finally, Admiral Kizaru and Admiral Aoshi came to the rescue. While forcing Walder back, they launched a pursuit. "

"The three generals took action at the same time. Walder has been cornered. It is only a matter of time before the Navy will win. Don't you want to go and see?" Whitebeard asked in a deep voice.

"It is widely rumored that the Skeleton Demon has released the old guys from Impel Down City Prison, but it also means that after Roger, the legends of the old era will also decline one by one."

"The gears of the times are falling apart, but I believe that there are also new gears that are gradually replacing them."

"Faced with the madness of the Navy Headquarters, no one can stop this, otherwise they will only be pushed to the top of the storm and become the target of public criticism."

Having said this, Whitebeard clenched the naginata in his hand slightly and said: "This era has long been divided. New gears can only replace the old gears. To survive, we can only surrender to our strong ones." Feet."
