After getting an earful from Sengoku, Zephyr remained silent for a while, and then he solemnly said:

"In this case, let the world government arrest him by themselves ."

Sengoku angrily hung up the Den Den Mushi and sat on the chair with a helpless expression.

A day later, at the top-secret meeting room of the Navy Headquarters.

It is a top-secret meeting room that only the ranks of the Vice-Admiral and above can enter.

At this time, the meeting room was full of people, but it was quiet.

"Ahem!"

The Fleet-Admiral walked towards his chair in the meeting room, carrying a stack of newspaper in his hand, and asked Commodore Brannew to distribute them to all the present admirals.

The green-haired Brannew took the newspapers and walked towards the tables without saying a word.

At this moment, only the voice of the Fleet Admiral Sengoku was resonating in the room.

After distributing the newspapers, Sengoku sat in front of everyone and said solemnly: "Sakazuki Akainu, when will you resolve the Akatsuki Pirates?"

Akainu didn't reply; instead, he nodded at the Vice Admiral Doberman, who was not sitting far away from him.

"Reporting to the Fleet Admiral, this matter was my responsibility. I misestimated the combat power of the pirate, Akira." Doberman stood up and said to the Fleet Admiral.

"Sit down."

Sengoku looked at Doberman, then turned his gaze over the present high-ranking naval admirals, and then said:

"We must save the face of the world government and Navy. Otherwise, the pirates will be more hooligans and unscrupulous."

"I asked you to come here today to put a solid plan for arresting Akira."

At this time, Kizaru asked:

"I heard that when Vice-Admiral Strawberry surrounded Akira, Zephyr-sensi was there also. Why didn't he take action? It's really disappointing. Does the Navy sympathize with pirates?"

Aokiji raised his blindfold and lazily replied: "Zephyr-sensi has his own reason for doing this."

Sengoku turned his gaze at the two of them, and he calmly said:

"Zephyr feels that the Navy's judgment about Akira is unfair."

After speaking, he paused slightly and slammed his fist on the table, growling:

"Yes, it was indeed the Navy's fault in the first place, but after he brutally killed the Captain in the East Blue Sea branch! There is no meaning in discussing this matter. No matter what the reason is, the act of killing the Navy is unforgivable. What's more, The Rear-Admiral Bastille and the Vice-Admiral Strawberry died in his hands! Akira must pay the price for what he did!"

While Sengoku was speaking, he took a look at Aokiji, then set his gaze on Kizaru and said in a deep voice, "Borsalino, Strawberry was your friend. Arrest Akira to for him. It's your responsibility now."

After hearing the order of the Fleet Admiral, Kizaru put down his hands on the table, nodding to Sengoku, and said earnestly:

"In that case, I will go now."

When Kizaru was about to get up, Sengoku knocked on the table and said, "Wait a minute."

"Um?" Kizaru looked at Sengoku with curiosity.

Sengoku patted the newspaper on the table and said:

"How would you deal with this matter?"

Kizaru picked up the newspaper distributed by Brannew. He suddenly frowned, reading the headline.

The headline was concerning the Akatsuki Pirates.

''Is the navy with justice or evil?!''

"The captain of the Akatsuki Pirates, Akira, has defeated the elite navy soldiers and killed the Vice Admiral Strawberry at the beginning of the first half of the Grand Line."

"According to our reporter, Akira, the captain of the Akatsuki Pirates was offered a bounty of 86 million Bellies, considering him an extremely dangerous pirate who killed the Captain of a Naval branch base in the East Blue Sea."

"However, according to our reporter, the Captain of the Akatsuki Pirates was a bounty hunter in the East Blue Sea and has made outstanding contributions against the pirates in the East Blue Sea. However, due to the greed and corruption of the East Blue Sea Naval branch base..."

"In the end, Akira got angry and killed Nezumi, the Captain of the Naval Branch Base, and went out to the sea as a new pirate!"

"..."

The information about the Navy's behavior with the bounty hunters in the East Blue Sea was completely exposed by this newspaper. The ridicule of the Navy was extreme.

"According to our agency's investigations, whether Akira was actually in the East Blue Sea or on the Grand Line, he only fought against the navy, and there was never any act of slaughtering civilians!"

"So, how many scums like Captain Nezumi are there in the Navy? Our agency is actively investigating it. Please wait for our next release."

By looking at the contents of the newspaper, Kizaru wiped his forehead helplessly and asked:

"Fleet Admiral, the rumors are getting more and more excessive. This kind of information went to the newspaper even without the approval of the world government and the Navy."

"What shall we do now?"

Sengoku held his forehead, waved his hand to Kizaru, and said:

"Therefore, this time, you have to arrest Akira for sure. You must capture him alive!"

"Oh?"

Kizaru was shocked for a moment and then asked, "Is there any way for the Fleet Admiral can save our face?"

Sengoku nodded at him, and then he looked at all the present naval admirals, saying:

"This incident started with Akira and must end with him. After catching him, the Vice-Admiral Tsuru will wash away the evil from his heart, and then he will be executed publicly!"

(T/N: Tsuru ate the Woshu Woshu no Mi, a Paramecia-type Devil Fruit. her power can also "clean" a limited amount of evil of the victims, which is considered a dangerous ability against pirates.)
