Luffy and the others broke in, instantly making the fortress that had been calm for a long time noisy, and thousands of Marine soldiers were awakened from their sleep.
Whether it is in the huge fortress passage, or in the bushes outside or on the shore, or on the lake in the fortress, Marine soldiers can be seen everywhere, the power of each giant searchlight is fully turned on, looking for Luffy and the others.
After all, since the fortress was established, there are only a handful of brain-dead pirates who can take the initiative to attack the fortress.
Not to mention, there are rumors in the fortress this time that it is a ghost pirate ship full of gold, which can send the entire fortress to search for eight people, which is also a very high specification.
However, in this fortress with the highest level of vigilance, the location with the most severe orientation, in the command room of the fortress, one of the pirates being hunted is sitting in the room.
Opposite him, Vice Admiral Jonathan, the highest commander of the fortress and the commander of the G8 branch, sat facing each other, without any verbal clashes or heart-to-heart confrontation.
The two sat here quietly, smelling the aroma of tea wafting in the air along the hot air in the teapot that was slowly boiling on the table below.
Gently sniffing the fresh tea fragrance in the air, people couldn’t help but feel refreshed, and the whole body felt comfortable. After a while, Lin Tian walked out from a sense of tranquility.
Looking at the boiling teapot below, Lin Tian said: “Tea; among so many Marine generals, you can find the best tea leaves and keep them hidden every time.”
Clack la la…
Picking up the boiling teapot, Jonathan smiled calmly and cursed, “Smelly brat, what kind of virtue you brat, the entire Marine executive are aware that the things you target rarely escape your clutches.”
“Many people in Marine harbors resentment on you, but helpless for it… knowingly and honestly fell into that pit. I treasure this kind of tea, but the island has been destroyed in our hands. Speaking of this, I regret it.” Lin Tian showed a look of regret, “I was cheated by you at the time, and the good things were taken by you. In the end, it was me who was criticized by those old guys, hah.”
That was the first time Lin Tian gave an order to kill the island since he became Marine. Neither was approved by Marine Headquarters. It was the two of them who decided to do this thing at that time, and they were the ones who resisted the responsibility later.
The decision to destroy an island with their own hands can be said to be the most cruel thing Lin Tian has ever done, but countless lives, all due to their two orders, all died overnight.
Hearing Lin Tian mentioning that incident, Jonathan stopped pouring tea, obviously he was also very restless at the moment.
paused, continue to pour the tea, “That thing has happened, we don’t regret it. Saying this, now you’re a brat as a wanted criminal with bounty gold reaching 1 billion. It was so rampant that in the Arabasta incident, the entire Baroque Works Organization was almost completely killed, which is indeed in line with your style. However, after hearing that you became a pirate, I was indeed shocked.”
He picked up the poured tea, gently put it next to his nose and sniffed, the fresh scent assaults the senses, and the intoxication appeared on his face, before he took a sip.
Said calmly: “In some aspects, I still agree with Akainu’s view. Some things must be suppressed with iron and blood, and even some things must be discarded when faced with choices.”
“As for Marine and Pirate, it has nothing to do with me. Justice and evil only care about events and people, not standpoint.”
Sipping a cup of tea, Jonathan said: “No wonder Akainu has always said that you are the only one who works in Marine with your own style and believes in the iron-blood policy.”
Turning the warm teacup in his hand, Lin Tian smiled lightly, “He who can’t tolerate evil, I’m afraid he’s already listed me as his number one offender, and he will definitely take action against me whenever he has the chance.”
After staying in Marine for so long, I know the tempers of Kizaru, Akainu, and Kuzan/Aokiji very well. According to the Akainu style, no matter what it was before, as long as you stand on the opposite side of Marine, even brother will become an enemy.
“Indeed,” Jonathan reluctantly nodded, with the understanding of his friend Akainu, “Although I didn’t listen to what he said, in the past conversations, I can feel his unwillingness to the last battle.”
Waving a hand, Lin Tian said unwillingly: “Forget it, among those three guys, I am the least willing to fight with that guy.”
It’s not that Lin Tian is afraid of Akainu, but that he is indeed a real soldier. When he fights, no matter who he faces, he feels like a desperate Saburo. From the beginning, he uses a deadly fighting method. Fighting this kind of guy is really annoying.
Suddenly, Lin Tian also put down the tea cup in his hand, and asked in a deep voice: “By the way, are there any plans that Fleet Admiral Sengoku prepared for me recently?”
Ever since I was back in the Arabasta incident and announced his return to the entire Grand Line, he has begun to secretly guard against the actions of the Marine’s actions in my heart.
Based on his understanding of Fleet Admiral Sengoku, since Lin Tian have appeared, whether it was in the face of pressure from the upper levels or because of the Marine’s justice, it was inevitable that he would do something to Lin Tian.
But after so long, Marine Headquarters did not move at all, and always felt something was wrong, very abnormal, so Lin Tian worried that there was a huge conspiracy behind.
Jonathan showed a surprised look on his face. For Lin Tian suddenly asked Marine Vice Admiral about the state of Marine itself, and asked Marine about their plan, he was very surprised, knowing that they were pirates and the marine.
Looking up at Lin Tian, Jonathan had an intriguing smile on his face, and asked, “You are indeed a pirate. You are asking about Marine Headquarters’ upper secrets to a Marine Vice Admiral, could it be I heard it wrong?”
Hearing the ridicule in these words, Lin Tian stopped the teacup that was about to be put on his mouth, and laughed abnormally.
“Then you said that you are such a Marine Headquarters Vice Admiral, but now you are drinking tea in the Marine Fortress with me, a 1 billion wanted Marine traitor. Wouldn’t that shock the old men of the headquarters to death?”
Jonathan was taken aback, and then he reacted and laughed directly, “That’s right, Marine Vice Admiral is drinking tea with the most wanted criminal, I’m afraid those old guys will be slapped on the table on the spot. But.” Jonathan suddenly turned around, and he was puzzled: “It stands to reason that your strength and the weird Devil Fruit ability will be very difficult for the headquarters to deal with you. Yes, is it because of….”
“Yes.” Lin Tian’s expression is serious and nod. He is not alone now. You must know that he is now a member of pirates.
Their current battle strength is concerning. Now if they are watched by Marine Headquarters, the consequences are difficult to control. After all, it is difficult for even Lin Tian himself to survive intact, and it is difficult to guarantee the safety of his own life.
Jonathan thought for a while, his face became serious, “Honestly, it is difficult for us to know what Fleet Admiral Sengoku plans are at the moment of implementation. After all, since you have been in Marine for so long, Fleet Admiral Sengoku will definitely pay attention to this move. I am afraid that the specific plan is difficult to know in advance for the three Marine Admirals.”
Hearing this, Lin Tian is silent and nods, Fleet Admiral Sengoku is known as The Resourceful General. Aware of this, not at all what surprises him, especially for those Marine generals who were close to him back then.
Jonathan continued: “Although I don’t know the Fleet Admiral Sengoku’s plan, Marine has been under a lot of pressure recently, and there is a great opportunity to do it soon, according to my understanding.”
“It is indeed very unwise for you to join a pirate group now. Relatively speaking, it is your best practice to turn the light into the dark, whether it is for you or your friends.”
bang bang bang …
Lightly tapping on the side chair, Lin Tian already knew about this matter, but now if he leaves, some things still need to be done. It’s not safe. After all, he has relationships that Marine knows.
Even if he leaves by himself, it will cause harm to Luffy and the others. It is very likely that they will be wanted by Marine with all their strength to take hostages against Lin Tian. In this case, everything will be completely messed up.
If this is the case, it can only be the same as the story development, but some things have to be changed. For people other than Luffy, growth seems very slow in that way.
“That’s right.” suddenly realizing something, Jonathan asked: “Then what should I do this time, should I let you out or….”
Lin Tian said to himself: “Forget it. It’s still….”
Suddenly, several eager knocks came from inside the door, followed by eager but excitement voices coming from outside the door.
“Vice Admiral Jonathan, as you said, the pirates were outside the fortress, and Pirate Hunter Roronoa Zoro was caught by us.”
