Originally Kaido was only a little interested in Doflamingo, but now he was truly intrigued.
But in Wanokuni, there are more important things that have not yet been dealt with.
Without saying anything, Kaido changed the subject: "That stupid bastard, Kozuki Oden, is he back?"
"Yes, he just arrived two days ago" King responded immediately.
Kaido rubbed his chin, frowning, and seemed a little embarrassed.
King looked at his boss's appearance, thought for a while and said, "Boss, why don't I chop him up?"
It is doubtful whether King can beat Kozuki Oden, but he still has the confidence that comes with being the second in command of the Beasts Pirates.
Hearing this, Kaido immediately shook his head and said, "No!"
Kaido, from his appearance, has a Yakuza-like face and muscular body, making him look like a brash musclehead who doesn't think.
In addition, he is an alcoholic and often does some ridiculous things.
So many people's impression of Kaido is that the only good quality of this guy is his bravery.
In fact, this was a big mistake. After all, as one of the future Four Emperors, how could he manage without some brains?
King offered to kill Kozuki Oden, but Kaido immediately refused.
It's not that Kaido can't deal with Kozuki Oden, the main reason is that the Kozuki Oden's identity makes Kaido feel very apprehensive.
There are two very powerful gangs behind Kozuki Oden. The first one is the Roger Pirates.
Although the Roger Pirates have been announced to be disbanded, that doesn't mean you can go around harming their old teammates. In case they hear that their comrade is in danger, group up again and come after you, won't you get beaten to death?
This is one, and second, Kozuki Oden is not only a member of the Roger Pirates, but also a member of the Whitebeard Pirates.
You suddenly killed Kozuki Oden now, and Whitebeard finds out in the future, can this be good?
So Kaido is annoyed by the existence of Kozuki Oden now.
Of course he wants to kill the other party so as not to affect his plans in Wanokuni, but it can't be done now, the current development of Beasts Pirates can't bear these two pressures, so Kaido decided to wait for a few years, when the time is right , it would be more appropriate to kill him.
Delay him for a few years. After a few years, all the members of the Roger Pirates have really settled down, and there will be no more troubles. At that time, if you kill Kozuki Oden, you only need to face Whitebeard, it's just pressure from one side, that is if Whitebeard even finds out.
After a few years of development, Kaido realized that although he may not be able to catch up with the Whitebeard pirates, it should be no problem to make that old man Newgate afraid to attack him head on and risk sacrificing his 'sons'.
In fact, Kaido's speculations are very accurate.
By the time Kozuki Oden was about to die a few years later, the Beasts Pirates had grown considerably.
The Whitebeard Pirates are also constantly changing. Some people, such as Newgate, did still have feelings and recognition for Kozuki Oden, but Kozuki Oden didn't spend much time on the Whitebeard Pirates' ship after all.
Most people from the Whitebeard Pirates haven't even seen this guy.
For such a person with a low sense of existence, Whitebeard took the whole team to fight Kaido to the death... it's very unlikely. Sometimes you have to make decisions considering the future of the crew.
The captain's seat is not so easy to sit on.
Perhaps because of these various considerations, in the end, when the news that Kozuki Oden was killed by Kaido reached the Whitebeard Pirates, Newgate did not really break face with Kaido in the end.
Anyways, Kaido has no intention of killing Kozuki Oden for the time being, so he has to find a way to hold off this guy.
It is also because of the existence of Kozuki Oden that Kaido has no way to get away from Wanokuni for the time being, and has to suppress his thoughts of recruiting Don Quixote Doflamingo and others.
On the other side, Naval Headquarters Marineford.
In a small conference room, there are several bigwigs sitting at this time, personnel from the intelligence department, who are reporting some information on the sea to them.
"It is reported that after the Roger Pirates announced their disbandment, there was an eyewitness testimonial that Gol D. Roger and Edward Newgate had an appointment at New World Sakura Flower Island. The specific circumstances are unknown. There was no observed changed in the the Whitebeard Pirates after that. " Rosinante stood in front of a projection, holding a document in his hand, and quickly reported the situation.
Underneath, Sengoku leaned his head closer to Garp's and asked: "This Roger, he won't be colluding with the Whitebeard Pirates to make any big moves, right?"
"It's unlikely." Garp shook his head, and continued: "Whitebeard is not a guy who likes unnecessary trouble, if Roger really wants to use a big pirate to do something, he might as well go to Shiki...not to mention, according to the current intelligence, the Roger Pirates have really disbanded, not some pretense, so I am more inclined to believe...."
"Inclined to believe what?" Sengoku asked, touching the braid on his chin.
"The meeting between Roger and Newgate at Sakura Flower Island was more like an...old friend's farewell." Garp said after thinking about it.
Sengoku was silent for a moment, feeling that what Garp said made sense.
But it was just a thought after all, and analysis still had to be done.
Rosinante kept reporting some information, and Sengoku and others also discussed it from time to time.
This discussion lasted for about two hours. Marine thought up a lot of ideas, made corresponding arrangements, and discussed a lot of layout and views on the situation at sea before finally adjourning the meeting.
Sengoku was not in a hurry to leave, and waited for a while in this small meeting room. After Rosinante packed his things, he smiled and said: "Rosinante, you told me this morning that you have something important to discuss with me... what is it?"
At this time, there was no one in the conference room, so Rosinante did not hide his thoughts, looked at Sengoku and said: "Admiral...."
"What did I say to call me when no one's arou-" Sengoku waved his hand and said.
But before he finished speaking, Rosinante smiled a little shyly, and said, "Father...I want to transfer to the field."
"Huh?" Sengoku was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Why do you have such an idea?"
Rosinante's strength is not very good. It can be said that his talent is not related to "force". However, he seems to be very keen and talented in intelligence collection and other aspects, so he works in the intelligence department of Naval Headquarters.
But as Rosinante said, this is just clerical work, and he seems to want to go out now.
"Recently, I have been researching the information on the Donquixote Family. The deeper I go, the more I feel that if we continue to let them grow, there will be serious problems in the future..." Rosinante said in a deep voice.
Sengoku frowned, and then said: "What about Mariejois? Now is not a good time to do something to Don Quixote Doflamingo."
Mariejois is protecting Doflamingo!
This is the first point of consideration, and the second is that several months have passed since the Battle of Cervantes Island. Sengoku discovered that although Doflamingo was listed as a pirate by Marine, he has not changed much from before so far. He only seems to take extreme action when provoked.
Therefore, combining the two, Sengoku thinks that it is best to wait for the limelight to pass, wait for the right time, and then clean up Doflamingo.
"I know!" Rosinante replied: "Due to various factors, it is really inconvenient for us to take action against the Donquixote Family now, so we should prepare for the future and learn more about their information and secrets, wait until the time is right , and then when it is time, strike like thunder and uproot them completely!"
"That's right." Sengoku nodded and said: "Because of this, even if there is pressure from above, I didn't say that I would withdraw the intelligence team responsible for the Donquixote Family."
"Admiral!" Rosinante called Sengoku Admiral again, and then said: "I am Doflamingo's younger brother, and he doesn't know my Marine status. If I go back to the Donquixote Family now, I may become one of their core members and obtain their core secrets, which will help us to comprehensively develop a plan against the Donquixote Family in the future."
Sengoku: ? ? ? ?
"Nonsense, you have no idea how difficult your brother is!" Sengoku vetoed.
He has fought against Doflamingo, and he knows very well that Doflamingo is a cunning, clever, sinister and vicious person. Rosinante's silly and sweet character may be instantly exposed to Doflamingo.
That guy Doflamingo even killed his father, once Rosinante is exposed, can he still live?
This is his only son...well, an adopted son, but he is developing in the direction of his own son!
How can he be willing to send him to Doflamingo, right into the den of the lion?
