Pirates: Your Emperor is Back!

Red Earth Continent, Holy Land Marie Gioia.

This is the "center" of world power.

And within this "center", five men who represented the pinnacle of world power gathered together.

Five old stars!

——Five human male elders, the supreme leaders of the world government, their existence itself represents the pillars of the world government, and their status is higher than that of the commander-in-chief of the world government.

In front of them was a copy of today's newspaper.

On it, a photo of Ryan Rowan was printed.

"[Golden Dawn]..."

One of the Five Old Stars chanted this nickname that should only exist in ancient books.

"Why did the history of eight hundred years ago choose to reappear in this era?"

The other four five old stars each expressed their views.

"He should have been our countryman."

"...No, it shouldn't be him, but Neferutari."

"The ancestor of the Alabasta royal family? That's right, that Neferutari should have been on 'our side' too."

clack la la...

A five old star clenched his fists, his face gloomy.

"The undead who have died long ago should be buried along with that history!"

Another person frowned and said slowly:

"But he was unwilling to be lonely, and climbed up from the desert country again."

"Is it a coincidence?"

"Or is it a chess game that has been laid out for eight hundred years?"

"...."

"It's all possible."

"If this is a game of chess, who is playing it?"

...

Everyone was speechless.

After a while, one of the five old stars touched his chin.

"Let's talk about what's going on now."

"In short, that [Golden Dawn] now wants to cross the Red Earth Continent and go to the North Sea, what should we do?"

"Intercept him."

"No, we don't have a 'reason' and they have a 'good reason'."

A five old star tapped today's newspaper with his fingers.

"We declared to the outside world that platinum lead disease is an infectious disease, and all countries in the world find it very difficult."

"Although many high-level officials in various countries know that it is a lie, the people below them don't think so."

"Platinum lead disease is an unavoidable existence for them."

"Nowadays, there is a 'warm-hearted' country suddenly declaring that it will provide medical assistance to Beihai where the platinum-lead disease broke out."

"What would they think?"

Hearing this, a five old star thought about it:

"There will be a minority who will thank the country, but the majority will want to see a 'self-destructive' joke."

"Good." The other nodded.

"If platinum-lead disease is really a highly contagious disease, then Cosmopolitan is asking for trouble."

"but not."

"Platinum lead disease is a symptom of poisoning!"

"Lian Rowan, you're pretending to be ignorant!"

"Because of the platinum-lead patient, Ryan Rowan found a reason to cross the Red Clay Continent—and there's nothing we can do about it."

"Once he has a firm foothold in Beihai, we will fall into a passive position."

"Either, the lie of platinum lead disease will be exposed - the scandal of the world government will be made public."

"Either, the lies about the platinum-lead disease continue—the Four Seas Alliance has a continuous reason to maintain their exchanges with the North Sea."

"..."

After listening to this analysis, the conference room fell into a brief silence again.

After a while, a five old star spoke slowly:

"So, not only can we not intercept the Universal Alliance, but we have to give the green light on the Red Earth Continent to assist them to go to the North Sea."

"That's pampering them!"

"But it's the best choice!"

A Wulaoxing's face was gloomy, and he reminded: "Don't forget, our purpose is to maintain the stability under the rule of the world government!"

"agree."

"agree."

"..."

The rest of the five old stars nodded.

However, some people also expressed their own concerns, "If they are allowed to touch the North Sea, will they cause future troubles?"

"What Ryan Rowan gave was a move of 'bright chess'."

"It's like in a game of chess, we can clearly see the opponent's position, but we can't directly stop him."

"But looking at it the other way around, we also have a chance to make a move next,"

A five old star took out a telegram.

"This is just sent from the Institute of Naval Science."

"Um?"

The other four five old stars received the telegram and looked at each of them a few times, with slight differences in their eyes.

"Weapons of mass destruction? Do you want to conduct actual combat tests in the North Sea?"

"For the Four Seas Alliance?"

"It's very dangerous. If it affects civilians, we can't explain it. At that time, instability will also erupt..."

Having said that, the five old stars suddenly realized something.

The five old star who sent the telegram nodded with a calm expression.

"Yes, since the Universal Alliance can use platinum-lead disease as an excuse, we can also use platinum-lead disease as an excuse, can't we?"

"It is enough to notify the royal family at the test site to evacuate. As for the casualties of civilians, it has nothing to do with us. It is caused by the 'terrible platinum-lead disease'."

"..."

"The Don Quixote family... is that family of traitors?"

"It doesn't matter who they are."

"Since the bedbugs in the underground world want to take advantage of the opportunity to make a profit, give them this opportunity."

"If you spend a little more time fighting, you will naturally have no time to stand firm and do something destabilizing."

"..."

After some discussions, the meeting that took place in the holy land of Mariejoa came to an end.

...

The day the news report was released.

Great Route, Alabasta.

The expeditionary force preparing to go to the North Sea is assembled!

Looking at the people boarding the boat, Rossinanti frowned, feeling a little puzzled in his heart.

The lineup that appeared in front of him was a bit too "luxury".

First of all, it is the [Golden Dawn] Ryan Rowan who dominates the overall situation.

Secondly, it is one of the Seven Martial Seas under the king, [Sand Crocodile] Crocodile.

There is also the current interim king of the Magnetic Drum Kingdom, an animal-type devil fruit capable user-Dalton; one of the vice-captains of the Alabasta Kingdom Guard-Bell the Falcon; plus the previously seen Murloc Hoka.

...

For the rest, Luo Wen hadn't had time to introduce them to Rossindi, but Rossindi could tell that those people were also not simple.

A group of Alabasta elite king army;

A group of medical troops from the Drum Kingdom;

A group of murloc warriors.

There is also a group of...Sky Island people? !

These people add up to nearly a thousand people!

Quantity... few.

But the combat power condensed in it is extremely amazing!

They formed a group of about 200 people and landed on the four large ships docked by the port.

It was a state-level ship of the superpower Alabasta's standard. Its firepower was second only to naval ships, and it could be said to be armed to the teeth.

Such a strong lineup is enough to start a real war!

Not to mention small countries, even a medium-sized country would be hard to resist!

Luo Xidi was very puzzled and asked Luo Wen:

"You declared that this is... a medical support force?"

"Yes." Rowan nodded.

Rossindi, "Then..."

He wanted to say, would that be a bit too exaggerated.

But Rowan pointed to the four ships and introduced:

"Medical troops naturally have doctors."

Rossindi nodded.

"The doctor of the Magnetic Drum Kingdom travels far away, and the king and guards of the Magnetic Drum Kingdom personally protect it, which is reasonable."

Rossindi paused, then nodded again.

"Alabasta is the leading party, and it is reasonable to send guards to accompany it."

Rossindi nodded again.

"The air island tour group intends to go out for meteorological observation, which is reasonable."

Rossindi: "?"

Not quite right.

Luo Wen continued: "There are many devil fruit capable people on this voyage, and the murloc underwater rescue team is accompanying, which is reasonable."

Rossindi: "..."

Rowan boarded the ship, sat down with his back against the mast, and looked up at the sea in the distance.

He smiled and said:

"All in all, everything makes perfect sense."
