Who made him the Pirate King?

Let’s not talk about the middle and low-level combat forces.

The top combat forces of the new navy, a rough count, are Zephyr, Storm, Kizaru, Aokiji, and Fujitora.

In contrast, the old navy only has Sengoku, Garp, and Akainu.

And two of the “three people” in the old navy belong to the category of “remnants of the old era”.

The new navy not only has Kizaru, Aokiji, and Fujitora, the three “admirals in their prime”.

There is also Storm, a super monster who is so young and terrifying!

How can this be compared?

Unless the World Government is willing to fully support the old navy and send two admiral-level combat forces at one time to let them join the old navy.

Otherwise, the power comparison between the new navy and the old navy is bound to be unbalanced!

But then again.

Where is the top combat force at the admiral level so easy to find?

Therefore.

Out of the strategic goal of seeking time for the development of the new navy.

Zephyr and others decided to send Kizaru back to the old navy!

In this way, the top combat power comparison between the new and old navy remained at "four to four".

Although there is a monster named Storm who is a little too strong in the new navy.

But the power comparison between the new and old navy is still barely balanced.

In this way.

The new navy can also avoid facing direct pressure from the world government.

"Didn't we discuss the development strategy of the new navy together before?"

Zefa recalled the previous conversation and said meticulously.

"First, clean up the pirate emperor of the new world, then confront the old navy with wrong ideas, and finally attack the world government."

That's right!

This is the "three-step" strategy of the new navy.

"Okay."

Storm glanced at Kizaru and nodded reluctantly.

"I agree with this plan."

If it weren't for the Demon Killing Order incident on Rischilede Island.

Storm still had a good impression of Kizaru.

But now?

The reason why Kizaru is alive is because Storm saw the face of Zefa and others!

Otherwise.

Storm had already thrown Kizaru into the "Great Void Prison" and gave him a "lifetime imprisonment package"!

This is the fate of backstabbing him!

And after Kizaru got Storm's recognition, he couldn't help but feel relieved.

To be fair.

When facing this little monster Storm, Kizaru's inner pressure is still quite large.

Especially there is still a big rift between him and Storm!

Kizaru now only hopes that after returning to the old navy, he can wash away the negative impression he left on Storm by working hard.

As for returning to the old navy, immediately turning against and betraying the new navy?

Kizaru has never thought about it.

What "justice that changes with the wind" is just a joke.

In Kizaru's opinion.

No matter how bad Storm's character is.

It's better than those evil Celestial Dragons!

As a navy admiral, Kizaru has always been "bad" before.

That's just because he can't see any hope of promoting justice!

As long as "Tian Shangjin" still exists.

As long as the "world nobility" still exists.

As long as the "world government" still exists.

Then the navy's [justice] is just a bright and beautiful shell.

The essence of the navy is just a "tool" for the world government to rule the sea!

Kizaru has long seen this clearly.

That's why he chose to "play dirty".

Now.

Under Storm's instigation.

The new navy was established.

And it also summoned five admiral-level strongmen at one time.

Even if we put aside the new navy.

Storm also has a "Dawn Pirates" and an entire "Dark World" under his command.

This scale of power can at least compete with the world government!

This level of power allows Kizaru to see the real "dawn of justice".

[Ambiguous justice] is still justice after all!

Kizaru made a wrong choice before, and he will not make it again.

All kinds of thoughts flashed through Kizaru's mind.

He twisted his mouth and used his usual slick and lazy face again.

"By the way, don't forget to pay my salary after returning to the old navy~"

"Salaries are in place, the navy is scrapped", right?

Storm glanced at Kizaru unhappily, and pointed at Zefa and others, as well as the navy warship under his feet.

"Look! Look at the current situation of the new navy! Is this the time to raise the 'salary'?"

Kizaru blinked, and inexplicably felt that what Storm said made sense, but he was still unwilling to bow his head at this time.

It doesn't matter whether it's money or not.

The main thing is that Kizaru doesn't want to lose face in front of Storm!

The Pirate Emperor sent away the Navy Admiral with a "mouth-to-mouth"...

Then Kizaru will lose face!

"...Although."

Kizaru reluctantly found a reason.

"Storm, aren't you very rich?"

"I am quite rich now."

Storm said in a faint tone.

"But are you sure the new navy wants to use my money? The money of a pirate emperor?"

Using the pirate emperor's gold and silver to support the development of the new navy...

Why does this sound so strange?

Don't even mention Kizaru.

Zefa and others, who had been silent just now, all felt bad.

"Money..."

Zefa had a headache.

"How can the new navy develop if there is not enough military spending?"

Navy, weapons, warships, logistics...

Every aspect of the new navy requires money!

And it’s a lot of money!

If Storm were to "provide" for him, then of course there would be no problem.

After all, Storm is very rich, and the Golden Emperor is very rich...

But what Storm just said was like a thorn in the hearts of Zefa and others.

And even leaving aside the identity of Storm Pirate Emperor.

Let Storm support the navy with his own money...

The thing itself is strange.

If the new navy really accepts Storm's "monetary supply".

So is the new navy the "new navy of justice" or the "White Dragon Emperor's Imperial Guard"?

"If you ask me, if the New Navy wants to make money, there are actually many ways."

Storm said in a rougher way.

"First of all, of course, we need to get money from the old navy! As long as we can turn the old navy into a new navy, then don't the soldiers, weapons, equipment... and everything of the old navy belong to the new navy?"

Hearing this, Zefa and others nodded in unison.

Fujitora, the only one with a thin skin, also thought this was a good idea.

As long as people's lives are not taken at will, it is definitely an excellent development strategy for the new navy to absorb the power of the old navy.

"Secondly, it's to get money from pirates!"

Storm added.

“There are so many pirates in the new world, and if the new navy attacks just a few, they can snatch all their treasures!

“Not only the pirates’ treasures, but we can also take the pirates’ bounty orders to the Old Navy to collect the bounties!

"You can eat from the pirates, but also from the Old Navy and the World Government... It's a win-win situation!"

If dealing with the old navy, Zefa and others still have a little psychological pressure.

Then Zefa and others will have no burden at all in fighting against the pirates!

It is only natural for the navy to attack pirates!

“In the end, it’s about getting money from the franchise countries.”

Storm spread his hands and spoke of the real, fundamental solution.

"Remember the plan I told you before?

"Let the G1 branch and the G5 branch exchange places, and then regard the original G1 branch as the headquarters of the new navy.

"The reason why I chose to let the G1 branch exchange places with the G5 branch instead of exchanging positions with other naval branch bases in the new world is because there is a country around the current G5 branch——

"The Kingdom of Dressrosa!"

Aoki thought for a moment, then slowly said: "Strong, if I remember correctly, Dressrosa Palace should be your 'territory'?"

"That's true."

Storm shrugged his shoulders and said calmly.

"Dressrosa was originally a country that joined the World Government, but later the King of the Shichibukai, Donquixote Doflamingo, stole the ruling power through illegal means. I defeated Doflamingo and made myself The flag was planted in the Kingdom of Dressrosa.

“However, even though I planted a flag on the Kingdom of Dressrosa, I did not do anything to this country, let alone collect any ‘protection fees’.

"If in the future, the G1 branch that exchanges positions with the G5 branch becomes the headquarters of the new navy, then it will be able to collect a certain amount of... um, military expenses from the Kingdom of Dressrosa."

In fact, the correct term should be "protection fee."

But Storm looked at the new naval giants in front of him.

I still swallowed the words "protection fee" and replaced it with a milder term.

"but……"

Yixiao raised an objection here.

"Dressrosa is a member country of the World Government, right? That country is already bearing a very high amount of heavenly gold. If they are allowed to provide military expenses for the new navy, will this affect Dressrosa too much? Are you a citizen of Sa?”

"You made a mistake, one smile—General Fujitora."

Storm paused, then changed to a more formal title.

"If the headquarters of the New Navy is really stationed near the Kingdom of Dressrosa, then why does Dressrosa continue to hand over heavenly gold?"

The affiliated countries hand over heavenly gold to the world government.

The most fundamental reason is that in exchange for the protection of the World Government!

And how does the world government protect the franchised countries?

Not relying on the navy!

The world government rules the sea, and the navy is the external expression of the world government's ruling power.

According to what an unnamed admiral, Green Bull, said——

Ordinary small countries outside the world government have no "human rights"!

The Old Navy will only protect the countries that join the World Government.

Some navies even "generate income" for themselves by plundering non-joining countries.

Once the new navy's headquarters base was stationed near the Kingdom of Dressrosa.

Then the security force in the sea area around Dressrosa will definitely be maximized.

In that case.

Unless they are the Riku royal family, they feel that the lives of the residents of Dressrosa Kingdom are not hard enough.

Otherwise.

Why does the Kingdom of Dressrosa have to pay heavenly gold to the World Government again?

in addition.

The amount of Heavenly Gold that the World Government collects from the member states is so exaggerated that it is known to the world.

The new navy does not even need Dressrosa to provide the original amount of Heavenly Gold to better protect Dressrosa!

He suddenly realized with a smile.

"I understand... I have no problem."

"One more thing."

Storm added.

"Near the Kingdom of Dressrosa, there are countries like the Kingdom of Prodians, and there are also several islands.

"If the new navy chooses to set up its headquarters base in the nearby G5 branch, then with the "military funds" provided by the Kingdom of Dressrosa, the new navy can at least smoothly pass the initial development stage, right?"

"Storm..."

Zefa looked at Storm with great relief.

"It was indeed a very correct decision to let you and I form a marine guerrilla team together!"

"I think so too."

Storm smiled, then stood up and looked at the people in front of him.

"I'm going to rob the G1 branch now. Does anyone want to act with me?

"Relocating the headquarters is urgent!"
