Pirates: Vice Captain of the Nine Snakes Pirates!

Chapter 175 respective preparations

After a long day, the meeting room of the Navy Headquarters finally returned to peace.

The blackboard in the center of the conference room looks like a battle scene.

Brannu carefully drew a battle diagram based on the content of the meeting.

In this operational plan, Sengoku personally took charge and led the navy into the New World.

The navy will be divided into four fleets: the Sengoku Fleet, the Garp Fleet, the Kizaru Fleet, and the combined fleet of Aokiji and Akainu.

The first three fleets each have their own important tasks, which are to monitor the Beasts Pirates, Whitebeard Pirates and Big Mom Pirates to prevent them from making any rash moves.

The joint fleet of Aokiji and Akainu is tasked with the arduous mission of annihilating the Nine Snakes Pirates!

Vice Admiral Tsuru stayed behind at the Naval Headquarters, responsible for logistics support, central dispatch and close monitoring of Nine Snake Island.

This time, the Navy Headquarters is full of confidence and vows to completely eradicate the Nine Snakes Pirates before they find the final island!

The next morning, a piece of news that shocked the world made the headlines of newspapers!

The captain of the Nine Snakes Pirates, the Pirate Empress Boa Hancock, was stripped of her title of Shichibukai!

The Navy fabricated a large number of "crimes" of the Nine Snakes Pirates and openly declared that the Pirate Empress was not worthy of the honor of being one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

The navy was a great success in this operation. The civilians on the vast ocean believed it without a doubt and hoped that the navy would destroy the Nine Snakes Pirates as soon as possible.

Therefore, the navy followed the will of the people and threatened to quickly capture the Nine Snakes Pirates.

The Navy is willing to take the risk and go deep into the waters of the New World where pirates are entrenched, find the Nine Snakes Pirates and capture them!

At this point, the Navy's plan was completed.

Because the navy also doesn't want other forces on the sea to know the real reason why they want to destroy the Nine Snakes Pirates.

For a time, all the pirate groups in the New World were terrified.

The three major pirate groups in the New World were confused and tried to figure out the real intention of the Navy. They were worried that this was a conspiracy of the Navy, so they recalled all their combat forces outside to prevent any accidents.

In a certain sea area in the New World, everyone in the Nine Snakes Pirates knew the news in the newspaper.

"Gerald, do you think the navy has noticed anything?" The empress asked with a frown after reading the newspaper.

"That must be the case. Now that we have collected the text of the landmark history, if the navy still hasn't noticed anything unusual at this time, then their eight hundred years of rule over the sea will be in name only." Gerard looked calm and was not surprised by the news in the newspaper.

These things were all within his expectations, even though they had not revealed any information in their search for the historical text in the past two years.

As long as the Navy or the World Government wants to investigate, they can find some clues from the whereabouts of the Nine Snakes Pirates.

It is normal to be discovered, it is just a matter of sooner or later.

The Empress naturally did not take this matter to heart, and the members of the Nine Snakes Pirates did not care about the so-called "crimes" in the newspapers.

However, the navy's disrespect for the empress made them unhappy.

"Lady Snake, Gerald, should we divert the attention of those people on the sea?" Robin asked.

Seeing that they were about to find Raftel and uncover the blank hundred years of history, she was worried, fearing that any accidents would happen.

"Sister, what Robin said makes sense. We should indeed make some noise to divert those people's attention. Our true purpose cannot be exposed at this moment." Sandasonia deeply agreed with Robin's suggestion.

"Well~ let's make the matter public, Jellal, what do you think?" The empress thought for a moment and asked Jellal.

Gerard nodded and replied, "Okay, but this will require Xia Qi's assistance. Morgans may not have the courage to publish it in his newspaper."

What the two were talking about was the Seraph Project and the World Government's research on bloodline factors.

If these two things were publicized on the sea, pirates, strong men who have not joined the navy, and strong men who have joined the navy would all be afraid of the navy and the world government.

"Xia Qi? I understand~" The empress nodded thoughtfully.

This matter involves a wide range of people, and only by taking two approaches at the same time can it spread quickly across the vast ocean.

However, it should not be difficult to make those Seven Warlords of the Sea feel uneasy.

After all, once the Seraph Project is announced, they will find out that they are just experimental subjects.

They are so proud and arrogant, they shouldn't be able to bear such humiliation, right?

Gerard looked at Marigorud and said, "Mirigorud, take this Floating Fruit back and have Everlandra eat it. At the critical moment, have her control the Nine Snake Island and turn it into a floating island to prevent the navy from making desperate moves."

"I see!"

Marigorude took the Float-Float Fruit and immediately transformed into a full beast form and flew towards Nine Snake Island at the fastest speed.

In the Chabaoti Archipelago, in Xia Qi's extortion bar.

Rayleigh and Xia Qi looked at the news in the newspaper with deep worry.

"Rayleigh, I don't think the navy is joking this time. Perhaps Hancock and the others' purpose has been exposed." Xia Qi said solemnly and coldly.

Her gaze was cast towards the Sabaody Archipelago Naval Branch in the distance, and at this moment, she suddenly felt an urge to return to the arena.

Rayleigh frowned and fell into deep thought, thinking about the possible consequences of this incident.

Back then, their Roger Pirates also arrived at Raftel, but in the end they had to disband because the time was not right.

He knew very well that even if the Nine Snakes Pirates arrived at Raftel this time, they would not gain much, and Hancock could at most get the title of Pirate King.

But then, they will face relentless pursuit from the World Government and the Navy, unless the Nine Snakes Pirates disband their group like the Roger Pirates did back then and minimize their own influence.

Otherwise, the Navy will put them in an underwater prison no matter what the cost!

"Don't worry, Xia Qi. I think Brother Gerard should have thought of the current situation." Rayleigh's voice seemed to dispel the haze that shrouded Xia Qi's head, making her feel a lot more at ease.

Xia Qi thought of Jellal, and only now remembered that every time she saw Jellal, his eyes were always filled with a strong self-confidence.

"Blur, blur, blur~"

The sudden sound of Den Den Mushi brought Rayleigh and Xia Qi back to their senses.

Xia Qi glanced at the Den Den Mushi and said to Rayleigh, "It's Hancock and the others~"

Then he picked up the Den Den Mushi and answered the call. "Hancock, where are you now? Do you know what the navy is doing?"

"Um... Xia Qi, this is Gerald. We already know about the Navy's actions. I called you this time because I want your help with something."

Xia Qi didn't expect it to be Gerald, but it also made her feel relieved.

Since it’s Gerard, it proves that he already has a solution!
