One Piece: Fist of the World

"I'm leaving, Sengoku!" Holding Rhodes' bounty poster, Garp walked out of Sengoku's office with a big laugh.

"Where are you going to catch him?" Sengoku looked at Garp, who was leaving, and spoke. The Navy had not yet discovered the whereabouts of the Rhodes Pirates.

"Don't bother yourself with such things!" Garp waved the bounty poster in his hand. He was the one who once chased the Pirate King Roger everywhere, so dealing with this novice pirate who just went out to sea was a piece of cake for him. Sengoku also thought of this, and his expression eased slightly.

"That's right!" Garp turned suddenly. "After this time, I'm going back to the East Blue for vacation. I haven't seen my lovely grandson in a long time, hahahahaha!"

This guy... Looking at Garp's back, Sengoku shook his head. I'm afraid only catching pirates can arouse the interest of this old friend. Since he had decided to deal with the Rhodes Pirates, there was no need to rush to update their bounty posters. Thinking of this, Sengoku stuffed a document on the table into the goat's mouth.

Next came the even more troublesome matter of the Giant Pirates and the Giants. Looking at the document in front of him, Sengoku couldn't help but sigh. A new Pirate Emperor had just appeared in the New World, and at the same time, the Giant Pirates, which had been silent for a century, were setting out to sea again. I don't know what kind of changes will be brought to this ocean when all these things happen together.

Sengoku took out a special Den Den Mushi from the drawer. "Moshi Moshi, this is the Sengoku!"

"What's the matter?" A majestic voice came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi.

"It's about the Giant Pirates and the Giants. The Five Elders!"

Mariejois: The Five Elders' Directives

Holy Land Mariejois, Pangaea Castle

The Five Elders sat in a circle, looking at the Den Den Mushi in the middle. "I see. We already know the situation." After listening to Sengoku's story, the Five Elders remained expressionless, and only the bald God of Law, Saint Topman Warcury, spoke up and replied indifferently.

"So, about Judicial Island—"

"You don't need to worry about this, Sengoku!" The God of Law, Saint Topman Warcuryl, interrupted Sengoku.

"We will arrange for other people to handle the follow-up matters." He continued, "Compared to this, how is the selection of the Seven Warlords of the Sea going?"

"No other suitable candidate has been found at this time." Sengoku paused for a moment before answering.

"Too slow!" The God of Scientific Defense, Saint Jaygarcia Saturn, paused for a moment with the cane in his hand, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone. "The Seven Warlords of the Sea are an important part of balancing the world order, especially with the birth of the Fourth Emperor of the Sea." He emphasized, "So far, the Seven Warlords of the Sea have not yet gathered together, which is very disadvantageous for the new era that is about to be faced with, which is even more turbulent!" He then listed the current members: "Hawkeye Mihawk, Pirate Empress Boa Hancock, Crocodile, Gecko Moria, Sea Knight Jinbe, and Doflamingo. The last Seven Warlords of the Sea must be recruited as soon as possible."

"I see." Sengoku's voice came from the Den Den Mushi.

"I hope you can get this done as soon as possible." As the last sentence was spoken, the call was disconnected.

"Really..." Sengoku put the Den Den Mushi away again. Although the Five Elders took over matters concerning the Giant Pirates and the Giants, Sengoku did not dare to leave it alone. Moreover, there was one more thing. "The Seven Warlords of the Sea, it's not that easy to recruit them." Thinking of what happened before, Sengoku couldn't help but shake his head again.

Mariejois.

Saint Saturn tapped the cane in his hand. "The Navy might need some cracking down."

The God of Justice, Saint Marcus Mars, shook his head. "Let's talk about this later. What should we do about the giants?"

"Let CP handle it. They handled the previous incident with the giant beautifully."

"Second."

"Can."

"I agree."

"So, what about the Seven Warlords of the Sea?" Saint Saturn brought up the old topic again. "We can't leave everything to the Navy."

"Let the CP organization pay attention to this as well." 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝕨𝕖𝗯𝚗𝚘𝕧𝕖𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝕞

"Second!"

"Regarding the Seven Warlords of the Sea system, there seem to be many different opinions in the Navy. It would be a good idea to let the CP organization also pay attention to the right candidates!"

"Then let's do it!"

Lavis Island: A Tense Encounter

Grand Line, Lavis Island. This was a famous entertainment capital. Whether it was a casino, a gaming hall, or a fun street, no matter what kind of entertainment it was, you could find it on the island. Although with the growing fame of Alabasta's "Rain Dinners" casino in recent years, the business here had been affected to some extent, but as of now, it was still the largest entertainment capital in the first half of the Grand Line.

"Fufufufufu, you are in a good mood, Tesoro!" In the entertainment city in the center of the island, Doflamingo, wearing a pink feather coat and holding a glass of red wine, looked with interest at Tesoro, who had just sung a song on the stage. The visitor had gray-green hair combed into a smooth, slicked-back style and wore a pair of purple sunglasses on his head. The suit he wore was the same as Doflamingo's, also a bright pink color. Not only that, he was also covered in all kinds of gold jewelry. This was an extremely showy and arrogant guy.

He took off his suit and handed it to the waiter beside him, then reached out to take a glass of red wine from the standing waiter. Tesoro walked in front of Doflamingo and sat down, crossing his legs in a casual posture.

"It's just a pastime." After taking a sip and placing the glass on the coffee table, Tesoro lowered his eyes slightly and looked at the newspaper on the coffee table. "Are these little brats the reason why you're so angry?" Ignoring Doflamingo's gloomy expression, Tesoro picked up the newspaper and read the information on it. "You're quite capable. You actually managed to escape from that Black Arm Zephyr." What was published in the newspaper was the news that the Rhodes Pirates caused a huge disturbance at Whiskey Peak, and then fought against the former Admiral Zephyr of the Navy Headquarters in Little Garden, and escaped successfully. There were even many photos posted in the newspaper, including all the members of the Rhodes Pirates, from various angles. It was like a photo album of the Rhodes Pirates.

"The person you care about should be this person." Tesoro pulled out one of the newspapers and placed it in front of Doflamingo. Doflamingo's expression became even gloomier. Because the other party is right.

"The Op-Op Fruit, I remember it was sold for a whopping 5 billion in the underground world!" Not paying attention to the change in Doflamingo's expression, Tesoro continued speaking. "When this fruit appeared, it seemed to be in the North Blue. I remember you were also in the North Blue at that time." He then added with a taunting tone, "Could it be that this was also snatched from you?"

Swoosh— Tesoro tilted his head back slightly, and an imperceptible line passed in front of his eyes, cutting the wine glass in his hand, and the bright red wine spilled on his pure white shirt.

"You are so presumptuous! Tesoro!" Veins popped out on Doflamingo's head.

|====|

As the Rhodes Pirates set sail for Lavis, Garp confidently sets out to capture them, while Sengoku grapples with the implications of the Giant Pirates' resurgence and the need to complete the Seven Warlords of the Sea roster. The Five Elders at Marijoa discuss these concerns, emphasizing the balance of power and delegating the giant issue to CP while also tasking them with finding a new Warlord. Meanwhile, on Lavis Island, Doflamingo confronts Tesoro, who provocatively highlights the Rhodes Pirates' exploits, particularly Law's acquisition of the Op-Op Fruit, hinting at Doflamingo's prior failure to obtain it.
