New Dawn

The Red Line is a massive continent that completely encircles the world, dividing the ocean into 7 different seas.

West Blue, North Blue, South Blue, East Blue, Grand Line, which is further divided into Paradise and the New World, and finally, the Calm Belt.

Above the entrance to the New World and above the Red Line lies the Holy Land Marie Joa, where the descendants of the creators of the World Government reside.

In a spacious room within the castle, five pensive figures can be seen. The Gorosei, better known as the world's highest authority.

San Warcury: "¿Do you trust that scum? Remember, we must not only worry about this chaotic era infested with pirates but also ensure that the Celestial Dragons live fully and without concerns."

The elderly man with a large mustache strongly disagreed with the others' decision that this 'Lexter' should be their distributor, as he has no background or past that can be traced.

According to Cipher Pol reports, 'Lexter' turned out to be very intelligent and capable but with dangerous intentions to exploit the needs.

He was described as "Sensible and Manipulative."

San Nusjuro: "We have no other choice, Warcury... He was the only one who dared to handle that business. When we wanted to make Rocky disappear, he had already taken care of him. No one else even intended to get involved in this business..."

His companion, the Elder with a long sword, expressed his opinion on the matter.

San Marcus: "For now, we'll let him operate. As long as he fulfills his part of the deal, he can have our protection...

-Marineford Marine Headquarters, Admiral Sengoku's Office

Currently, the Fleet Admiral is 'Kong,' and it will be a couple of years before he retires and takes his place in Marie Joa.

The current three Admiral positions are a bit complicated, as only Sengoku 'The Buddha' and Zephyr 'Black Arm' are the primary combat forces of the Marine.

Originally, Garp should have taken the vacant position, but he refused to be under the direct command of the Celestial Dragons.

Scanning through a pile of papers, Sengoku's attention was drawn to one in particular.

'Various Expenses, Medications: $120,000,000'

Sengoku: "¿What's this? I don't recall the Headquarters purchasing a shipment of medications or medical equipment recently. While it's not a large amount, it's very strange...

Could it be that the Gorosei interfered in some oper-"

Before he could finish the sentence, the door to his office burst open. Peering in with a package of rice crackers, a massive torso compared to his body, and a cape, it was naturally Garp, returning for a routine of 'Bothering his friend.'

Sengoku: "Garp! How many times have I told you that you can't barge in without notice! What on earth are you doing here? I primarily sent you to the New World to quell the emboldened pirates!"

Garp: "Bahahaha. Don't worry, Sengoku, I have my disciple and Dragon taking care of those issues."

Sengoku: "You're a headache... If you have nothing to do, go and reinforce the search in the Blue Sea for Roger's son. It's been 9 months; we only have a few weeks left to complete the search."

Upon hearing that, Garp dropped his mocking tone and became serious.

Garp: "You know I disagree with this decision... Sengoku."

Sengoku: "I don't like sacrificing innocent lives either, but it's the Gorosei's orders. We must prevent the roots of evil from spreading. We can't simply ignore them. Garp..."

Garp: "Fine, I'll head to the New World right away. Send Zephyr or someone else..."

Sengoku: "Garp..."

With a displeased expression, Sengoku continued with the paperwork.

On a medium-sized ship, Johan was sailing calmly, reclined in a chair with his legs crossed, gazing at the sky with a smile.

Johan: "Hehehehe, the World Government is in the palm of my hand. Not only did I get them to finance my business through protection, but I will also avoid any interference with the Marines, who will have to hand over pirate bounties to me without any issues."

"I'll be worry-free for now, but I still haven't received any information about that person. Crocodile must have already fought against Whitebeard and lost humiliatingly; he shouldn't take long to return to Paradise. If I can recruit him, my chances of advancing will be more feasible. My organ, weapons, and Devil Fruit trafficking business will start soon. With that, it's just a matter of time before I crush this world."

"The only problem is the monetary restriction imposed by the System... While I could obtain billions of Belis, it would be a shame to lose it all. The other possibility is that the restrictive percentage of the system only affects me, and I can still use it in other businesses but without being able to use it again... Although the explanation of 'Own Methods' is very vague."

Johan: "System, current status."

"After capturing some pirates who were just starting out in the Grand Line, I received some rewards from Strawberry. At the moment, it only increases one combat skill. It's best to use points in skills that will serve me better in the future since I already have a solid foundation in Strength.

Considering my current stats, I should be as strong as a Supernova like Luffy, Law, or Kid. Although I have 4 points in Armament Haki, my other attributes are quite low."
