Pirates: Your Emperor is Back!

In the high command of the navy, Sengoku is called "Smart General", while Crane is called "Great Staff Officer".

The two are equally good at strategy, but their acting styles are completely different.

The Warring States period believed in the "justice of the ruler of the world", and was better at the strategy of the war level, and his actions were fierce and decisive, which made countless enemies fearful.

As for Crane, she is a navy of the same period as Sengoku, Garp, and Zefa. Long before the beginning of the era of great pirates, she has been active in the sea as one of the pillars of the navy.

Unlike Sengoku, Crane follows "pure justice".

She seldom participates in commanding a specific war, but in the formulation of many strategic policies that affect the navy and even the whole world, there is always the shadow of the crane behind it!

For example, how to deal with the "Alliance of the Four Seas" point of view.

The idea of ​​the Warring States Period is to limit the development of the Four Seas Alliance as much as possible from all aspects, so that it can only play the role of a commercial alliance and cannot evolve into a difficult armed force.

But Crane has given a clear objection.

"Doing that will only make things worse."

She had personally traveled to Alabasta and had contact with Ryan Rowan, so she was very aware of the [Golden Dawn] ability.

It is too late to restrict the Four Seas Alliance now...

No.

To be more precise, since the idea of ​​the Alliance of the Four Seas was proposed, the world government has already been one step behind.

Today's Four Seas Alliance has connected the three islands including Alabasta, and not only the people on these three islands, many foreign caravans have also been attracted, ready to flex their muscles in the nearby waters.

If he intervened forcefully at this time, that Ryan Rowan must have countless ways to arouse the "fire" in people's hearts.

Once the fire is lit, it is difficult to extinguish it.

Although it is possible to temporarily suppress the development of the Universal Alliance, it will definitely cause future troubles!

Ever since, Crane gave another solution.

Blocking is worse than sparse—and the navy wants to help "sparse"!

The plan for the establishment of the Navy's G-T branch has been finalized.

...

Luo Wen also had to admire He's methods, because the naval chief of staff had indeed shown enough kindness.

She did not directly appoint an experienced lieutenant general, but went through the usual process and selected one of the many lieutenant generals in the headquarters.

In that personal information, the navy named "Barlow" was introduced in detail.

People from the South China Sea, born as civilians.

Because of the poverty of the family, he was forced to go to sea early to beg for life.

With his excellent physical fitness, Barlow became a famous bounty hunter in the South China Sea when he was a teenager.

However, the way Barlow is "famous in the South China Sea" is somewhat special.

No pirate can be handed over to the navy by Barlow in a "alive" state!

During the years when Barlow was a bounty hunter, countless pirates died under his fists, and all of them were "massacres".

They tried to persuade Barlow not to indulge himself so much, and the navy would give the wanted criminals a fair trial.

But Barlow didn't bother to care about that. He only gave the navy a chilling look, and then continued to release his destructive desire that had nowhere to vent.

Until the arrival of a purple-haired man——

At that time, he was the admiral of the navy, [Black Wrist] Zefa.

At that time, Zefa had just been promoted to general, active in the sea with his powerful armed color domineering, and was about to marry his lover.

This proud admiral has defeated countless enemies, but has never killed any enemy. He is known as the "don't kill" admiral.

When Zefa was passing through the South China Sea, he accidentally heard about Barlow, so he approached him.

Zefa realizes that if Barlow is left alone and allowed to grow wildly, the gifted young man will sooner or later go astray and be destroyed by his own inner desires.

Ever since, Zefa began to try to reason with Barlow, persuading him to control the desire to kill in his heart.

One day, after a fight where one side was beaten...

Zefa convinces Barlow.

Since then, Barlow joined the navy, agreed with Zefa's point of view, and began to learn and grow under Zefa's command.

But a few years later, Zefa's family was killed by pirates. In order to control the hatred in his heart, the admiral withdrew from the front line and became an instructor and began to teach naval recruits.

It was also at that time that Barlow officially became Zefa's student.

As time passed, Barlow grew into a lieutenant general of the Navy headquarters, and at the same time inherited Zefar's belief of "don't kill".

It's just that, unlike Zefa who has a delicate mind, Barlow's behavior style has always been somewhat...

stupid?

But at the very least, he was much better than the bloodthirsty lunatic who almost destroyed himself.

...

But Barlow has been worrying about one thing.

His own teacher Zefa, after his family was killed by pirates, devoted himself wholeheartedly to teaching navy recruits.

Although Zefa seems to be "relieving" a lot as time goes by, Barlow can always see the unbearable sadness in Zefa's eyes.

After that, Barlow would see Zefa holding the wine bottle alone, watching the starry sky silently on the deck.

The teacher is probably thinking about his family, right?

Barlow, who was once saved by Zefa, now wants to try to save his teacher.

He wanted to prove to the teacher that he was teaching him well.

So, when he learned that the navy was going to set up a G-T branch, Barlow immediately signed up.

With his rich resume and good popularity, Barlow was successfully selected.

...

That evening.

Zefa found Crane with a helpless expression on his face.

"Are you sure that kid can do it?"

Crane smiled and asked back: "Why, you don't have confidence in your students?"

"He's got talent, but not 'sir' talent."

Zefa sighed, "I'm worried, he can't manage so many people."

He replied casually: "Then let him go alone, and then let him figure out a way."

"That's the only way... huh?"

Zefa was taken aback, then turned to look at the crane, "What did you say?"

"Trust your students, Zefa."

The crane was blowing the wind of Marin Fando, with a very comfortable expression, and said slowly:

"The existence of the navy is for the justice of this sea—this is our belief."

"So, if that's the case, anyone with a sense of justice can be in the Navy."

"Let your young brat show the emperor eight hundred years ago the 'justice' of this era."

...

At the end of the document, there is a message written by Crane:

Your Majesty, please take care of our brat.

After reading the materials, Rowan returned the file to Barlow, and said with a smile, "Welcome to Alabasta. Have you confirmed the location of the branch?"

Barlow shook his head, "I just came."

"I'll have someone take you to Alabasta for a walk. You decide the location, and someone will contact you later."

After thinking about it, Luo Wen added: "You can do it yourself."

"Okay, I understand!"

Barlow seemed very excited, and didn't feel that it was He or Luo Wen who was making things difficult for him.

...

The surviving pirates were taken into custody by Alabasta's King's Army.

At Barlow's request, they would be handed over to the nearest naval branch for trial.

When the construction of the G-T branch is completed, Alabasta will have the function of trial, but it cannot be done at this stage.

Barlow did not choose to return to Albana with Rowan and the others, but chose to stay in Rapeseed Flowers, intending to familiarize himself with the surrounding environment first.

Rowan left Bell, who was more mobile, to accompany Barlow so that he could contact him at any time, and then he was ready to leave for Albana.

...

Meanwhile, the other side.

Murloc Village Dock.

Two strange-looking people rowed a boat and landed on the shore.

They are one big and one small, like an adult leading a child.

Both were robed, with hoods pulled over their heads, casting shadows over their faces.

As soon as the man landed, he went straight to Huoka, the village head of the Murloc village after many inquiries.

"Excuse me, is this the Universal Alliance?" the man asked.

Huoka was a little surprised. After all, there are still very few humans who dare to communicate directly with murlocs.

He nodded, "This is the Murloc Village of the Universal Alliance."

Then, Huoka looked at the children beside him.

It was a human boy, with some white spots faintly visible on the exposed skin.

Hoka narrowed his eyes.

That is……

The man raised his head immediately, revealing a weird look like a clown's makeup on his face.

He cut to the chase:

"I want to find the best doctor here!"
