Four hundred and twentieth chapters all preparations
Rhodes appeared in the Shampoo Islands, causing some shock at the Navy headquarters, which shocked the entire navy and was unable to understand Rhodes' intentions.
Could it be that Rhodes wants to interfere in their war with Whitebeard?!
For Rhodes, Whitebeard is the enemy, but relatively speaking, the navy is more hostile and much stronger than the Whitebeard Pirates.
"Report to the Marshal."
A major general from the headquarters hurried into the highest-level office and reported to the Marshal Warring States Period: "The captain of the first team of the Ghost Hand Pirates has now returned to Wanguo, and the captain of the second team of the Yuzhijiri is still in the territory of the Hundred Beast Pirates."
Hearing the major general's report, the Warring States Period felt a little relieved. It seemed that the Ghost Hand Pirates had just destroyed the Hundred Beast Pirates. Taking over its territory was a troublesome. In a short period of time, it should not be freed up to intervene in the upcoming war.
"Where are the other captains?"
Qingzhi asked in a low voice while sitting on the sofa beside him.
The major general reported in a deep voice: "The captain of the Sixth Team was unknown, and the other captains have found traces in Wano Country."
The Warring States Period pondered for a moment and said, "Don't be careless, let's continue to keep an eye on the movements of the Ghost Hand Pirates and report to me at any time."
"yes!"
The major general responded and left the office.
After he left, Qingzhi raised his head slightly and said, "Since the Ghost Hand's troops are all in Wano Country, we can feel a little relieved. Only Ghost Hand appears here and can still deal with it."
The Warring States Period also nodded.
As long as the entire Ghost Hand Pirates are not dispatched, the Navy headquarters will not be afraid of Rhodes alone. At most, two top combat forces can be divided into two top combat forces to suppress Rhodes, and the remaining combat power is still enough to deal with Whitebeard.
In fact, there is no need to gather large numbers of troops from the Navy headquarters to deal with the Whitebeard Pirates. The reason for the large numbers of troops is to make complete plans, and on the other hand, to prepare for other possible situations!
The candidate generals Taotu and Chahuang, as well as Zefa who leads troops, will not appear on the front battlefield. They will only be dispatched unless the Red-haired Pirates also appear and attack the navy.
The three generals and the Seven Warriors Sea are enough to deal with the Whitebeard Pirates.
...
Shambodi Islands.
In a tavern, Rhodes was sitting face to face with Rayleigh.
It is not yet known whether the Straw Hats will receive news that Ace was executed and then participate in the war. Rhodes is not very interested, and it doesn't matter whether their group will go or not.
After chatting with Reilly for a few words, I felt that it was a good time to chat, so I followed Reilly to the bar and had a drink and chat.
"Mr. Rayley..."
Just as Rhodes and Rayley were talking about the New World, a voice came over and saw Kemi, a mermaid with emerald green short hair, walked in from outside.
After the accident, she has been hiding here.
"You're Kemi."
Rhodz took a sip of wine and glanced at Kemi.
Kemi noticed Rhodes and was slightly stunned. Then she showed an unexpected look and said in surprise: "You are... Lord Rhodes?!"
As a mermaid on Fishman Island, she is certainly aware of who Fishman Island is, and no one dares to offend Fishman Island in recent years.
even.
Rhodes' attitude towards Fishman Island is far better than Whitebeard. Not to mention the matter on the island, even if the mercenary is caught by a slave trader, the Ghost Hand Pirates will take action.
After several consecutive times, no slave trade organization dared to touch mermaids. Today, it was purely because of several slave traders who discovered Kemi on the land. They were so angry that they planned to do something and ran away, which led to the follow-up work.
"Well, do you know me?"
Rhods looked at Kemi and smiled faintly, saying, "I probably rarely go to Fishman Island."
It would be strange if you don't know each other.
Kemi muttered in her heart that even if she was a bit stupid, she wouldn't know anything about a person like Rhodes, let alone Rhodes is also the shelter of Fishman Island.
"You have a share in the matter of saving Kemi today."
Seeing that Kemi was a little restrained, Rhodes looked at Rayley in front of him and smiled.
Rayley laughed and said, "Kami and I met very early. We originally planned to pretend to be a slave and blackmail the buyer, but we didn't expect that such a thing would happen, and it was natural to save her."
Rhodes nodded, and after a glass of Rayley, he said to Kemi who was standing there: "Sit down, don't be so restrained, by the way, how is Jinbe doing now."
This sentence was also asked casually.
Jinping has never given up his position as King Xia Qiwuhai. On the one hand, he contacted the government, on the other hand, assisted Whitebeard everywhere. On the other hand, as a powerful faction protecting the Fishman Island, he also has connections with the Ghost Hand Pirates.
but.
When the war is coming, it is impossible to step on three ships. In the past, the world government could turn a blind eye, but now it will never approve it.
"Even the war against the Whitebeard against the government."
Rayley took over the topic that Kemi didn't know much about and said, "There are many islands sheltered by Whitebeard. No matter who wins or loses in this battle, the sea will not be calm. Jin Ping wants to stop the war, but he is locked up by the world government. He should be pushing the city."
This result was not beyond Rhodes' expectations.
but.
It will be a matter of time before the world is in chaos. Even if the white beard does not fall into the war on the top, he is already 72 years old, so how could he sit in the position of the Four Emperors for how long?
Rhodes is only thirty-one years old now, and there is still a long time to go before aging, but the white beard has really touched the limit of flesh and blood.
It can even be said.
It was the war on the top that played out the last glory of Whitebeard, so that Whitebeard would not die on the bed due to injury.
If he had not fought over the war, his deteriorating body might have fallen down within two or three years and could not get up.
"If Whitebeard loses, what are you going to do?"
Rayley stared at the bottle, his thoughts drifted, asking as if he was talking to himself.
Rhodes said calmly: "I will take over his territory."
Once Whitebeard died, all the islands sheltered by Whitebeard were affected by various pirates and dark forces. However, this time, Rhodes had already made several teams under his command ready. If Whitebeard died in battle, he would take over all territory.
"Then this sea is yours."
Reilly spoke in a daze. Although he and Roger swept across the sea and defeated the Whitebeard and the Golden Lion, they could not defeat the Whitebeard and the Golden Lion.
Can defeat, but cannot be destroyed.
But now Rhodes is already the strongest figure in this sea, and the Ghost Hand Pirates are already the strongest pirate force, no doubt about it.
Even if Whitebeard and Redhead join forces, they may not be able to resist Rhodes' future offensive, let alone Whitebeard's battle, which will probably end their life. The only remaining Redhead Pirates will be even more unlikely to stop Rhodes.
Do whatever you want.
This is the future nations.
Rhodz shook his head slightly and said leisurely: "It's not a question. Isn't there a mountain in front of him that no one has crossed for eight hundred years?"
"Is the world government?"
Rayley smiled faintly and said, "They can't sit in that position for long. We are anxious about O'Hara's matter, but the answer will be revealed one day."
“It’s a pity that I’m not interested in history, I’m only interested in creating the future.”
Rhodes took a sip of wine calmly.
Chapter completed!
