91. Threats To Each Other

"Dadan's Vivrecard is burning!"

"Who is it!?"

Shanks' hand holding the phone trembled slightly.

G-5...

After calming down his inner anger and loss, he picked up the phone again.

Dylan, who was still in East Blue, took out the Den Den Mushi and looked at it with a scarred smile. "Have you found it?"

"If you insist on doing this...then I..."

Shanks' voice was deeper and angrier than ever.

"You want to fight me to the death?"

"It may not work."

Dylan moved the microphone closer to his face. "The fish may die, but the net will definitely not be broken. Besides... before the 'new dawn' comes and Joy Boy returns to the throne, are you willing to die?"

On the other end of the line, Shanks froze instantly.

After a moment of silence, Shanks man showed a firm look in his eyes. "Indeed not, but if you continue to harm them... I will also take necessary measures."

"For example? Threatening me to destroy Greenbit again?"

The air was silent for a moment, and Shanks seemed to acquiesce to this answer.

Dylan looked at Shanks' eyes that were starting to become distorted and said, "Do you think you are the only one who knows the 'Celestial Dragons'? What a coincidence. I also know a few of them."

Shanks was a little puzzled for a moment, but still didn't speak.

He believed that the safety of "Greenbit" must be one of Dylan's priorities, and he would never give up that place easily.

"Some of them like young women, some like teenage girls, and some like middle-aged women who still have charm. Coincidentally, Red-Haired, I happen to know such two women..."

Shanks was stunned for a moment, then seemed to remember something.

Boom!!

The powerful Conqueror's Haki erupted instantly, and some ordinary crew members around him fainted under the aura.

"You..."

Dylan seemed to feel his anger and said with increasing joy, "A bar owner in East Blue who is about to give birth to a baby, and a world-famous girl idol singer. If I recommend them, the Celestial Dragons will probably like it. Right? What do you think? Shanks..."

Shanks trembled violently. If he didn't want the call to be interrupted, the Den Den Mushi in his hand would have turned into powder.

Seeing Shanks whose eyes had become like those of a beast, Dylan was in a good mood. "You see, as long as you are human, you will have weaknesses. I have them, and so do you. But now it seems that your weaknesses are more fatal... How about it? Do you want to take a gamble? You go and destroy Greenbit. I..."

"Enough." Shanks eyes had returned to calmness, but the coldness in his gaze was as real as ever. "Adams Dylan... After completing my 'mission', I will personally kill you!"

"Okay, but before that, I still have to remind you... hide better, otherwise... you may not be able to see the 'dawn' coming."

The Den Den Mushi closed its eyes, and Dylan was in a good mood.

"You are not without desires and weaknesses... Red-Haired Shanks!"

A newsbird flew overhead, and Dylan waved, causing a newspaper to fall down.

After turning over one of the pages and checking the information, Dylan looked into the distance with a smile on his face.

······

"In five days, we have lost 8 'guardians' and 21 'guides' in a row. Except for those special ones, the line of the Goa Kingdom has been completely severed."

"Did he do it all?"

"Not sure because nothing has come out, but it should be him."

"······"

"From all over the world... except for leaving the necessary manpower to guard the 'guides', everyone should go to the Grand Line."

"This is more dangerous. You should know that he has more eyes and ears on the Grand Line and is more powerful."

Shanks was silent for a moment and then nodded. "That's true, but we don't have many retreats now. Adams Dylan has become the biggest variable. We must ensure his growth. Maybe our layout has fallen behind in some places, so we must start making amends now!"

"Are you sure? You must know that once some people appear, they will alert the World Government."

"Definitely! I can predict that when 'he' appears in the world again, Adams Dylan will definitely attack him with all his strength, and we must ensure that we can block Adams Dylan without being noticed by him."

"What about the location?"

"Sabaody Archipelago!"

"Understood!"

······

With Dadan disappearing, Garp has become much older.

He didn't even eat his favorite donuts along the way.

After returning to Marineford, the silent Garp looked at the flag standing above Marineford for a long time.

"Garp."

Fleet Admiral Sengoku, who was wearing beach pants, walked up to him and looked at his old friend's depressed look. Sengoku patted his shoulder.

Sengoku guessed a lot of things just through simple intelligence analysis.

"Are you regretting it, Garp?"

"No..." Garp shook his head, and then the two white-haired old men sat on the ground.

The surrounding Marines moved around.

"Sengoku... I have never regretted anything I have done, because I... am just a good-for-nothing old man."

Looking at the depressed Garp, Sengoku fell silent.

More than thirty years ago, Garp and Roger teamed up to defeat "Rocks," thus earning the name "Hero of the Marines."

But Garp was deeply ashamed. After Roger became Pirate king, Garp harbored Roger's bloodline.

Sengoku doesn't know what the entanglement is.

But in Garp's face, Sengoku saw deep loss and loneliness.

In the "Summit War", except for Akainu and several radical generals who frequently tried to kill "Straw Hat Luffy," everyone else was concerned about Garp's position.

Including himself, and that young man who was always known for his coolness.

The appearance of "Straw Hat Luffy" can be said to have made the Marines look foolish in the "Summit War."

Although they won in the end, it also caused great divisions.

Aokiji quit, Sengoku resigned, and Zephyr almost quit...

Among the new generation of Marines, there are actually no characters who can support enough combat power.

The only dazzling new star was just a hair away from turning against them.

Although Gion and Tokikake have enough qualifications, they are not strong enough to assume the position of "Admiral."

In the end, the Marines had to use the "World Recruitment" as an excuse to promote "Fujitora" and "Ryokugyu"

Thinking of this, even though he has resigned from office for almost a year, Sengoku still sighed in his heart:

"Where will the Marines... go?"
