Chapter 1304
Chapter 1283: Fujitora Resigns, Fugaku Visits Prison!
Marine Headquarters, Marineford, Fleet Admiral's Office.
"These royals are all crazy."
Sengoku looked at the report from the North Blue Marine Governor, Admiral Momonga, displayed on the holographic virtual image, and couldn't help but sigh.
He believed that whether it was King Hanburg, King Galil Pat, Elizabello II, or the other kings who refused to sign the agreement, they all knew in their hearts that their resistance was doomed to fail.
The World Government had previously broadcast live multiple times the scenes of Admirals taking action, and they must have seen it all.
So, unless they could find other Admiral-level combatants from the civilian sector, and in sufficient numbers.
But these people still chose to do this. Was it really just because they were foolish?
No, they were all smart people, but they just couldn't bear to give up their royal authority.
So they tried to band together, create a large enough disturbance, and gamble on the World Government ultimately backing down.
Although the hope wasn't great, authority could blind people, driving them to extremes and madness.
"Ah, I wonder how many people will die this time."
Sengoku muttered to himself.
If the police aimed mainly for arrests, then the military's involvement would inevitably stir up a bloody storm.
Most of the soldiers who chose to resist the World Government with their kings would likely be subject to elimination.
Sengoku felt it was a great pity. These were all adult Sea Star people, who could become excellent warriors with proper training.
He hadn't thought much of it before, but now he realized that even the most ordinary Sea Star people possessed a physique that could be called exceptional talent when compared to other worlds.
One must know that the lowest level soldiers in the military could complete two thousand push-ups in one go, climb a two-hundred-meter rope a hundred times back and forth at high altitude, and run two hundred laps on a five-hundred-meter runway as part of their physical training.
And these were just the basic exercises they did daily before.
But if it were people from Kabaneri World, Demon Slayer World, Giant, and other worlds, they probably wouldn't even last a day.
Therefore, every normal Sea Star person was very valuable.
Knock knock knock.
Suddenly, the door was knocked on. Sengoku didn't pay much mind and casually told them to come in.
"Fleet Admiral."
It was Issho, the current Marine Headquarters Admiral, who pushed the door open and entered.
"Hmm, have a seat. What is it?"
Sengoku waved his hand, dispelling the footage on the tabletop, and asked.
"It's about the establishment of the New Navy later. After careful consideration, I have decided not to join, as I have no interest in conquest abroad."
Issho, whose eyes were now sighted, had a very serious expression, which caused Sengoku's expression to change drastically.
"Not joining?"
"Are you resigning from your Admiral position and leaving the military?"
It was basically confirmed that he would still serve as the Fleet Admiral of the New Navy.
So Sengoku really didn't want to lose Issho, this great combat power.
However, Issho's answer was also resolute.
"Yes, I wish to resign from my Admiral position and hope to be transferred from the military to the police!"
"Police?"
Sengoku was startled for a moment, then immediately realized, thinking to himself:
"Indeed, the police will be fully responsible for the public order within the world from now on. It's really suitable for Issho's personality."
But he still wanted to try and persuade him.
"If you dislike external conquest, you can actually stay and guard the rear. There's no need to leave the military. I can guarantee that."
Issho, however, shook his head, continuing to refuse: "Then I would be wasting an Admiral position. Rather than that, it's better to yield it to an expert who is more suitable for the New Navy."
Sengoku fell into a long silence. The office was completely silent.
"Ah————"
Ultimately, Sengoku could only let out a long sigh: "It seems I cannot keep you."
"I am very sorry. I have failed to live up to your expectations," Issho apologized sincerely.
Sengoku smiled and said: "Failing to live up to expectations is a bit exaggerated. After all, you are only leaving the military, not the World Government."
"Alright, I agree to this, but I hope it can wait until after this year's Reverie."
"After all, you were just promoted to Marine Admiral. Resigning so quickly will cause a negative impact. Also, I need to have a chat with the higher-ups."
Issho nodded: "I am willing to follow your arrangements."
A moment later, Sengoku looked at Issho's back as he left and couldn't help but reveal a bitter smile.
He genuinely liked the other party, but he also felt that the other party had caught a good time.
If it were the former World Government, a personality like Issho's would definitely cause trouble.
He then picked up the handset to contact Dragon and told him about Issho's decision.
"Fujitora wants to come here?!"
Dragon was startled for a moment, then his eyes flashed with surprise and delight.
This was a true Admiral-level combat power!
"Hehe, you really got lucky, kid. You must treat him well for this old man."
Hearing Sengoku's instructions, Dragon's mouth curved upwards.
"Certainly! My Vice Minister position here is awaiting Mr. Issho!"
He had initially wanted to reserve it for Bartholomew Kuma, and later for Charlotte Katakuri.
Now that Issho was coming, there was no need to reserve it.
"Vice Minister of the Ministry of Police Affairs, huh? That's not bad either. Then that's settled!"
Sengoku was very satisfied with this arrangement. A former Marine Admiral must be given sufficient treatment.
He then ended the call and called Kong of the Command Department. Kong then continued to report upwards to Saint Jaygarcia Saturn.
After all, it involved an Admiral-level combat power, which would definitely alarm the higher-ups.
At the same time.
A flying sailboat driven by Wind Stone energy slowly descended from the air, waiting for the Gate of Justice to open.
This was the World Government's latest regulation.
All airships were not allowed to go directly to Enies Lobby, Marineford, or Impel Down from high altitude.
They must lower their height and pass through the open Gate of Justice.
"There is actually such a magnificent gate in the world. It's truly an eye-opener."
On the deck.
Uchiha Fugaku, the current Fire Minister of the Sea Ninja Village, looked at the Gate of Justice before him, filled with emotion.
Although he had lived in the world for a period of time, he actually hadn't been to many places.
It was just that the work in the Sea Ninja Village was not easy, and his son, who was just born, was too young.
Not long after, the airship flew in at low altitude through the Gate of Justice, and following the whirlpool current below, successfully arrived in front of the main gate of Impel Down.
To be honest, Uchiha Fugaku wasn't very clear about his mission either.
The order he received from Tengen Uzui was to go to Impel Down to help control a criminal's consciousness.
But exactly who it was, and how to control them, he didn't know.
Moreover, one point was also very strange.
There were many Uchiha ninja in the Sea Ninja Village, and quite a few clansmen with Three-Tomoe Sharingan.
If it was just to apply genjutsu to a certain person, he shouldn't need to act personally.
Unless this person's consciousness was difficult for the Three-Tomoe Sharingan to control, and therefore required the use of his Mangekyo Sharingan.
"Garp the Martial God?!"
But when Uchiha Fugaku walked off the ship and saw the figure standing in front of the main gate, seemingly waiting for him.
He was immediately extremely astonished, even doubting if he was seeing things.
"Hahahaha, Fugaku Fire Minister, right? You've finally arrived!"
Although the two were meeting for the first time, Garp was not at all polite and let out a hearty laugh very enthusiastically.
"This time I want to ask for your help to control a person and make him use his special move!"
"If I can do it, I will definitely go all out!"
Garp was polite, but Uchiha Fugaku didn't dare to be presumptuous and replied respectfully.
"Alright, let's go in and see the person. If you can control him, then quickly leave this place. This damned place is really boring!"
Warden Magellan, who had personally come to lead the way, was immediately speechless when he heard Garp's words.
"Garp the Martial God, forgive my bluntness, but the person with the strongest dojutsu power in the Sea Ninja Village should be our Hokage, Madara Uchiha."
A moment later.
The three of them arrived in a room specially cleared out on Sea Level.
Uchiha Fugaku, wearing a fire-patterned white robe, sat on the sofa and reminded Garp opposite him somewhat nervously.
He was just worried that if he failed, he would make the other party angry.
"That Second Sea Shadow of yours said that Madara Uchiha went on a long trip, so they sent you."
Garp nodded: "You don't need to be too nervous. This person's Haki is also not very strong."
"Although the Three-Tomoe Sharingan won't work, your Mangekyo Sharingan should be able to."
"Oh right, this old man asks you, can you guarantee that the person whose consciousness is controlled can use his full strength?"
Uchiha Fugaku thought for a moment after hearing this and gave a cautious answer.
"If the full strength you mentioned refers to the release of physical ability and energy, it should be possible. But if it involves combat intelligence, then not necessarily."
"That's fine then. You first look at the data/files you have, and also the footage of him exchanging blows with Charlotte Katakuri. Then, find a deserted island and make him use 'King's Punch' one more time!"
Garp said casually.
"Yes, please wait a moment."
Uchiha Fugaku first picked up the document on the tabletop to read.
Then he controlled the Den Den Mushi to project the footage that had been recorded beforehand into the air.
Marine Headquarters, Marineford, Fleet Admiral's Office.
"These royals are all crazy."
Sengoku looked at the report from the North Blue Marine Governor, Admiral Momonga, displayed on the holographic virtual image, and couldn't help but sigh.
