Naval Headquarters, Marinevando.

Marshal's Mansion.

The marshal's office was quiet.

"You stay here until this incident is over, Garp."

Cyborg sat empty behind his desk, calmly handling the pile of documents in front of him, and said a word without raising his head.

Garp stood there in despair, motionless, like a sculpture that had lost its soul.

The plaque of "Justice" hung on the gray-white wall, and the two large black characters looked down at him, as if putting a mountain-like weight on his shoulders.

I don’t know when it started raining outside the window.

The dark clouds were like a huge hood, covering the earth tightly, so heavy that it seemed like it was suffocating.

The swaying cold rain crackled against the closed glass windows, and then bounced out. Haze and chill enveloped the entire world.

Garp glanced at the military port in the distance through the glass window with dull eyes.

On the huge oval military port, elite navy troops wearing hooded coats patrolled back and forth in the cold rain, looking solemn.

He noticed that there was not a single docked warship in the military port.

"Don't look at it. I have given orders for all warships to go out to sea temporarily for cruise. You won't have any chance."

Cyborg Kong's deep voice came slowly.

Garp, who looked numb, twitched the corners of his mouth and smiled miserably.

This decisive courage is truly worthy of Old Man Kong...

"So... Old Man Kong, is there really no hope?"

Garp's slightly white lips trembled, and he murmured in a difficult voice.

Cyborg Kong didn't raise his head, his eyelids drooped.

While flipping through the documents in his hand, he seemed to say casually:

"Garp...you are my proudest student, and also my most troublesome student. You should know very well that I have always been proud to have you as my student."

"As for that boy Dolag, I really admire him."

"A strong sense of justice, a convincing charisma, natural leadership, excellent strategies, powerful strength and a talent that amazes the world... Even if we look at the history of the Navy for hundreds of years, it is difficult to find a young man who can follow He compares."

Garp gritted his teeth and said with red eyes:

"Then please save him!!"

His clenched fists trembled uncontrollably, and he took a step forward. An uncontrollable look of pleading appeared on his usually free and cheerful face.

"He's only twenty-five years old!!"

"He told me that he wants to be an admiral! He wants to change this terrible world in the name of "justice"!!"

"Damn!! I should have heard it then!!"

Garp covered his face with his palms and gritted his teeth, but the hot tears couldn't stop flowing from between his fingers.

Cyborg Kong finally stopped turning the pages.

He raised his head and looked calmly at the choked naval hero in front of him.

The middle-aged uncle in front of him, Garp, gradually overlapped with the grinning kid figure in his mind.

Cyborg Kong suddenly sighed.

"Garp, it's not that I don't want to take action."

"But you should be well aware of the consequences of killing a Celestial Dragon, let alone in full view of the public."

"The seriousness and sensitivity of this incident have far exceeded the capabilities of the Warring States Period and beyond my capabilities."

There was a hint of weakness in his eyes.

"According to the regulations of the world government, once the world's noble Tianlong people are harmed, the admiral must attack unconditionally... But do you know why Sengoku didn't deal with this matter personally?"

Garp was stunned, his eyes blank.

Cyborg Kong took out a cigar from the cigar box on the table, bit it in his mouth and lit it.

Thick smoke enveloped his resolute and profound face.

He said something that shocked Garp.

"Because this is the order of the Five Old Stars."

Cyborg Kong leaned back on the chair, raised his head slightly, and exhaled a stream of smoke from his mouth.

"Due to the sensitivity of Dorag's identity, the government has questioned the loyalty of our top brass."

"Can you imagine it?"

"A bloodline of naval 'heroes', a future naval admiral or even a navy marshal, a soldier who should be the most loyal to the government, actually dares to attack the noble Tianlong people..."

"This is unacceptable to Wulaoxing."

"This is no longer just a problem for the boy Dorag himself. His behavior has seriously affected the government's attitude and trust in our navy."

Garp's face became very pale.

Worried about his son's life, he never imagined the impact and involvement behind this incident.

He opened his mouth, just about to say something.

Cyborg Kong just waved his hand and interrupted him:

"Wulao Xing has already announced that if our navy lets Dolag escape this time, then the government's military expenditures for the navy will be directly reduced by 50%."

"In addition, the promotion plan that I and Warring States had finalized has also been stopped."

"Until this incident is resolved and the trust of the Five Old Stars is regained, Sengoku cannot become the marshal of the navy, and I cannot go to the Holy Land to become the commander-in-chief of the World Government."

Capru was struck by lightning.

Unprecedented guilt hit his heart, and he staggered back two steps, opening and closing his lips:

"Kong, old man Kong..."

Cyborg smiled indifferently and said:

"It doesn't matter. I wasn't originally interested in the so-called position of commander-in-chief of the entire army."

"Sengoku has no complaints about this."

"So Garp, do you understand now?"

"Whether it's the commander-in-chief of the army or the marshal of the navy, if we can save Dorag, even if there is only a slim chance, we will not give up lightly."

"But the situation at hand is... too difficult."

"Your boy has made an irreversible mistake."

Hearing this, Garp was speechless.

He stood there with blank eyes, as if his body and flexibility had been swallowed up by a huge coldness and hollowness, and he had lost all feeling.

"So...that brat...is it really hopeless?"

"Even Sakaski and Porusalino set off..."

he murmured.

Sakaski and Dorag have never dealt with each other, and he will never hold back.

As for Porusalino, the guy's thoughts were never clear.

If the two of them join forces, no matter how strong Dorag is, there is no way he can survive.

"No!"

He suddenly clenched his fists.

But just as he was about to do something, Cyborg interrupted him with a cold shout.

"What do you want to do!?"

Garp gritted his teeth with a look of dismay on his face and said:

"Old Man Kong, I will definitely repay your kindness in the future, but Drago is my son after all!"

"I have to save him no matter what!"

"I know that your position is very difficult, and I also know the difficulties of the Warring States period, so..."

He raised his hand and grabbed the navy cloak on his shoulders, pulling out the wrinkles.

"This navy, I don't-"

boom! !

A fist sent his whole body flying backwards and smashed deeply into the wall.

Garp looked at Cyborg Kong who suddenly took action with a confused face, his head was dizzy, and a trace of blood flowed from his forehead.

"idiot!!"

Cyborg Kong shouted sharply.

"I said it was difficult to do, but I didn't say it couldn't be done!"

Garp said in astonishment:

"Kosakaski and Porusalino—"

"Do you know why Darren was the first person notified by Seng Guo!?"

Cyborg rolled his eyes angrily and cursed.

Garp was stunned.

He seemed to understand something, and his bloodshot and dark eyes were once again filled with light.
