This organization...
Has definitely been underestimated!
Besides Yakushi Kabuto, who has infiltrated the Navy’s upper ranks, I didn’t expect that three mbers of the Seven Warlords of the Sea are also theirs!
"You guessed wrong. Akatsuki’s handiwork exceeds your imagination."
Yakushi Kabuto opened his palm calmly and said, "In order to draw you, the Admiral of the Navy Headquarters, away from Marinford, Akatsuki deliberately incited a war among the Four Emperors’ Pirate Gangs, which led Marshal Sengoku to send you, the Navy Admiral..."
The greatest move!
Was deploying Akatsuki’s leader, Uehara Naraku!
"..."
Kizaru’s eyes showed a hint of surprise, but it was quickly restrained.
Even he hadn’t expected Akatsuki would use the war between the Four Emperors to lure him out, the Admiral of the Navy Headquarters!
But this was normal...
Unless the Heavenly Celestial Dragon was attacked, Kizaru normally wouldn’t act easily.
Yakushi Kabuto saw the flash of surprise in Kizaru’s eyes and continued softly, "Throughout the journey, I constantly adjusted my plan.
All the way, I carefully guessed your intentions, supplenting my plan according to your wishes, successfully luring you into this trap..."
"You really went to great lengths!"
Kizaru couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh, "Deceiving others’ feelings, this is too much!"
Throughout the journey, Kizaru rarely gave any suggestions; but whenever he did, Yakushi Kabuto showed extre care.
Even the words of this Navy Staff Officer were quite pleasing.
Even Kizaru, who was always good at hiding his emotions, couldn’t help but feel a bit of goodwill toward Yakushi Kabuto.
Unexpectedly...
All of this was to lure him into a trap.
"Fufufufufufu... deception, huh?"
Doflamingo adjusted his small sunglasses and couldn’t help but chuckle, "Borsalino, we hid in front of you for several days!
Watching you, the Navy Admiral, constantly stress us out, thinking about it now is quite amusing!"
"Hmph..."
Kakuzu hugged himself.
Clearly, deploying so much strength just to capture Kizaru, the Navy Admiral, didn’t sit well with Kakuzu.
Hoshigaki Kisa curled his lips into a light smile, "Don’t say that, Mr. Doflamingo. Be a little nicer to the newcors..."
"Fufufufufufu... I understand."
Doflamingo nodded leisurely, his smile growing deeper.
Throughout the trip, Kizaru acted very arrogantly, often inadvertently trying to suppress them.
Thinking back now...
His behavior was truly naive.
I wonder what the Navy Admiral’s mood is now?
Does he feel very ashad?
But Kizaru didn’t care at all; he shook his head on his own, his gaze returning to Yakushi Kabuto: "By the way, why do you want to capture ? Could it also be for the power of the Glint-Glint Fruit?"
"Of course not."
Yakushi Kabuto shook his head, his voice gradually becoming calm: "We sincerely invite you, Kizaru, to join Akatsuki and beco one of us!"
"Just... like that?"
Kizaru’s eyes revealed so doubt.
Is there sothing wrong with Yakushi Kabuto’s head?
Going to such lengths to make him defect from the Navy to join Akatsuki?
Kizaru almost thought this guy was like Vegapunk, wanting to use him as a test subject!
"Then I’ll agree right away!"
Kizaru nodded slowly, then continued: "Joining such a powerful and secret organization doesn’t seem to be a problem for ..."
Leaving everything else...
At least he could get information about Akatsuki.
And as soone who embodies ambiguous justice, Kizaru actually doesn’t really care much about his identity, whether as a pirate or navy...
As long as he can execute the justice in his heart, nothing else matters.
Kizaru’s words almost directly break the defenses of Yakushi Kabuto and others; this Admiral of the Navy Headquarters surrendered too quickly!
Isn’t it a waste of their carefully laid traps?
"Fufufufufufu... stop joking!"
Doflamingo’s forehead twitched involuntarily, "You’re an Admiral of the Navy Headquarters; how can you be so easily..."
"I can announce through the press that I am leaving the Navy."
Kizaru slowly offered yet another solution.
No matter if this active Navy Admiral’s surrender was real or fake, once he leaves the Navy, it would impact the Navy’s reputation more than imaginable!
Yakushi Kabuto shook his head, sighed softly, and said, "No, Admiral Kizaru, our real purpose is not for you to leave the Navy, but for you to continue using your identity as an Admiral of the Navy Headquarters to remain in Marinford secretly."
"Eh? Is there really a need for this?"
Kizaru’s face flashed a hint of surprise, "Is the entire Navy’s intelligence not already under your control? Do I need to be in Marinford to steal information?"
Every ti discussing such matters...
Kizaru couldn’t help but worry about the future of the Navy.
The entire Navy’s intelligence has already fallen into Akatsuki’s hands, and even the Navy higher-ups are quite pleased they have found a new strategist!
Strategist my foot!
It’s a super spy!
Kizaru looked at Yakushi Kabuto, his eyes squinting again: "By the way, you want to stay in Marinford, don’t you think about using to attack the Navy at a crucial mont in the future..."
"That’s unlikely..."
Yakushi Kabuto furrowed his brows, adjusted his glasses, and said, "According to our leader’s character, he probably just wants you to acknowledge being his subordinate and carry out the tasks he assigns you, usually very simple ones..."
To be honest...
The Three Great Admirals of the Navy Headquarters seem more like collectibles that Uehara Naraku wants to collect; their power isn’t really that important.
"Your leader?"
Kizaru’s eyes flashed slightly.
"Correct."
Doflamingo seed to rember sothing amusing, his mouth curling slightly: "And only after receiving the leader’s approval can you join Akatsuki!"
"Akatsuki’s leader?"
Kizaru couldn’t help but look up at the sky, recalling when he photonized to find an exit, he seed to have seen a very fierce red-eyed man!
That man, could he be Akatsuki’s leader?
In the next mont.
A spatial black hole suddenly appeared within the Red Sun Array.
Two shadows slowly erged from the black hole; one was the world’s greatest sword master, Dracule Mihawk, the other was Uehara Naraku.
Yakushi Kabuto took half a step back to clear the path.
Yakushi Kabuto’s eyes quickly scanned Mihawk’s silhouette, but seeing Uehara Naraku’s actions, Yakushi Kabuto already guessed that Dracule Mihawk, the world-renowned sword master, had joined Akatsuki.
Uehara Naraku looked at the several individuals in harmony with each other and furrowed his brow, his gaze lingering on Kizaru.
"Hmm? Have you all talked already?"
Uehara Naraku’s expression showed slight surprise, nodding at Yakushi Kabuto and others, then couldn’t help but ask: "Then, did you beat him up? Why does this Navy Admiral look so well-behaved?"
