In addition to Doflamingo, Sasuke, and Black Zetsu, the other members of Akatsuki will participate in this battle.
Uehara looked at Kabuto, looked at his most trusted subordinate, and asked softly, “Kabuto, I want to meet Rear Admiral Drake officially tomorrow.
I want to reveal all the information about Baroque Works in this meeting. Do you have any way to make me join marine under his invitation and not arouse his suspicion?”
“Of course.”
Kabuto pushed his glasses and said with a low smile, “It just so happens that Admiral Aokiji gave the golden Den Den Mushi to Rear Admiral Drake. Naraku-sama just watches me arrange it.”
After Uehara arranged Crocodile’s matter, he turned to look at the people present. His eyes slowly turned and stopped on Doflamingo, “Doffy, as long as you don’t make any trouble…”
“Ehehehe… Yes!”
Doflamingo spread out his palm; his smile almost couldn’t be suppressed, “I’m just a little pirate shivering under the pressure of that monster Kaido…”
“That’s it!”
Uehara waved his hand and said, “All members in Alabasta, wait for my next order tomorrow!”
“Understood.”
Kabuto slowly pushed up his glasses and whispered, “I will immediately find a way to arrange for Rear Admiral Drake to invite Naraku-sama to join marine.”
Aokiji, “…”
Is it really okay for you to be so arrogant in front of an Admiral?
But Aokiji was really curious about what Kabuto would do to make Uehara join marine without any flaws.
Late at night.
Aokiji watched the entire meeting where Kabuto lured Rear Admiral Drake. He felt bad because he became Kabuto’s pawn.
The next day.
Rear Admiral Drake met Uehara again.
This Marine Rear Admiral straightforwardly requested to talk to Uehara.
In a low voice, he put forward his own conditions, “Uehara, you have two choices now.”
“What?”
Uehara couldn’t help but raise his head in surprise.
Rear Admiral Drake slowly took out the golden Den Den Mushi in his hand and said with a serious expression, “This is Buster Call’s Den Den Mushi. Once it is dialed, the Marine Headquarter will directly dispatch ten powerful warships and elite marine to wipe out the entire Alabasta.”
After Rear Admiral Drake finished speaking, he looked at Uehara, and his expression changed greatly. He continued to add, “Buster Call can only be used in an emergency. If the marine does not get accurate information about the Baroque Works, we will destroy the Baroque Works at the cost of the entire Alabasta.
We have found out that the most active place of the Baroque Works is in Alabasta. The Baroque Works is one of the most dangerous organizations in the whole sea. If we want to destroy it, we are destined to pay the price. In addition, Admiral Aokiji is on its way here. “
“…”
Uehara looked at Drake in front of him with an ugly expression, “Buster Call is the one who destroyed Vice President Nico Robin…”
“That’s right.”
Rear Admiral Drake nodded and continued softly, “In addition to Buster Call, there is also an Admiral from Marine Headquarters. In the absence of specific information, the marine can only make such a choice. This is also the order of the World Government!”
These words sounded really fake.
However, Rear Admiral Drake believed that it was enough to scare the person in front of him.
After saying that, Rear Admiral Drake slowly put away the golden Den Den Mushi and continued softly, “Other than that, there is another way. That is to tell us the information about the Baroque Works and cooperate with us to destroy the Baroque Works. Only then can the innocent citizens of Alabasta survive.”
“What’s the difference between marine and the pirates by doing this…”
Uehara raised his head and looked at Drake, but the eyes of this Rear Admiral were unprecedentedly firm.
Obviously…
As long as Uehara refused to agree, Rear Admiral Drake seemed to really press the golden Den Den Mushi and directly activate Buster Call.
Uehara nodded as if there was nothing he could do and whispered, “You guessed right, the headquarters of the Baroque Works is indeed in Alabasta. The leader is the Shichibukai Crocodile…
After Crocodile fought with Whitebeard and lost, he has been hiding in Alabasta all these years and absorbing the hidden power of this desert country… Now his power can easily destroy a city!
I have never seen an Admiral. I don’t know the power of an Admiral, but I know the horror of Crocodile. He just secretly used a move in this desert country, and the large city of Alabasta was destroyed.”
Uehara talked about the power of Crocodile little by little.
In addition to this, he also leaked the list of Baroque Works members to Rear Admiral Drake in front of him, including Baroque Works purposes.
“Baroque Works has always been here.”
Uehara held his forehead and continued softly, “Crocodile thinks that Alabasta, as one of the twenty countries that once created World Government has countless secrets that can make him stronger. Now he really became stronger…”
“…”
Rear Admiral Drake listened with a calm face.
Although his mood had long been in turmoil, his face was still calm. He just nodded continuously, indicating that he was listening carefully.
This information was all recorded in Drake’s mind.
Now Drake was more concerned about the following suggestion that Kabuto gave him, which was to use this opportunity to invite Uehara to join marine.
On the other side.
After Uehara finished talking about the secret of the Baroque Works, he suddenly grabbed Rear Admiral Drake’s wrist and persuaded him in a deep voice, “I don’t think that Buster Call can destroy Crocodile, but only kill innocent civilians of Alabasta…”
“I know.”
Rear Admiral Drake nodded. After taking a deep breath, he slowly bowed to Uehara and apologized to him in a low voice.
“I only wanted you to provide us with information about the Baroque Works. I deliberately used Buster Call to threaten you. If you want to blame someone, please blame me!”
Rear Admiral Drake insisted on bowing and continued in a low voice, “There is one more thing. This time, I will not use Buster Call, but this does not mean that the marine will not continue to use this destructive attack…”
Rear Admiral Drake’s head was getting lower and lower, and his voice was a little more sincere, “In order to avoid this situation in the future, I want to invite you to join marine’s secret special forces.
I hope that we can fight together, help marine collect information, and change the way marine fights against strong enemies. In the future, we can accurately attack Crocodile, these evil pirates who hide their true colors, and not be forced to use Buster Call.”
“…”
Uehara was silent.
This Rear Admiral Drake had some skills!
He must have Kabuto give him supplementary lessons yesterday!
While putting on a humble attitude, he also put on a righteous reputation. How could Uehara, a kind-hearted person, refuse him?
He could finally sneak into the marine…
In the future, he could finally openly reveal the information to the marine and use the marine’s power to attack other pirates to guide the situation on the sea.
Uehara reached out and helped Rear Admiral Drake up. He sighed and said, “Mr. Drake if you say this, I really have no way to refuse. I am just a person who can do a trivial thing…”
“… We are all the same.”
There was a smile on Drake’s face.
In fact, Drake himself didn’t seem to like smiling. His smile was a bit stiff, “Mr. Uehara, welcome to the marine. We will be colleagues in the future.”
In the afternoon.
Due to the urgency of the situation.
The battle meeting of the marine’s SWORD unit was held.
Rear Admiral Drake was the first to read out the Fleet Admiral’s new appointment, “Kabuto will be promoted to Captain. Uehara will be appointed as Lieutenant Commander.”
“…”
Uehara and Kabuto had different expressions.
A smile appeared on Kabuto’s face. Uehara sighed faintly, and Admiral Aokiji, who was secretly eavesdropping outside, was speechless.
Why would this combat meeting be held…
There were a total of three people in the SWORD unit, and two of them were undercover. Couldn’t Rear Admiral Drake be a little more alert?
Rear Admiral Drake was not only not alert but also a little relaxed in his heart. At least now, their SWORD unit was on the right track, and the first task to preside over the destruction of the Baroque Works could finally be officially carried out.
Fleet Admiral Sengoku also had high hopes for the SWORD unit and even gave them the right to mobilize all the marine forces around Alabasta.
“Let’s discuss the matter of directly destroying the Baroque Works and capturing the Shichibukai Crocodile!”
Rear Admiral Drake looked at his two subordinates and whispered, “Fleet Admiral Sengoku has given the order that we can arrest Crocodile directly. The evidence can be added later because marine is already preparing a Shichibukai candidate as the replacement…”
“This needs Lieutenant Commander Uehara to provide information.”
Kabuto pushed his glasses and said calmly, “In order to avoid being known by too many people, let’s find a secret place to catch Crocodile so as not to bring too much trouble to the marine.”
“Yes.”
Rear Admiral Drake nodded and said in a low voice, “In this case, we need to find a deserted place in Alabasta…”
“There are quite a few places like this.”
Uehara’s finger fell on the center of the desert on the map of Alabasta. He explained, “He usually stays in the Rainbase and occasionally appears at the port to kill some pirates to act. It’s just that he often goes to the center of the desert recently…”
Uehara’s expression gradually became a little complicated, “If we were in the middle of the desert, there would definitely be no one who could be a match for Logia-type devil fruit person…”
“In a battle on land, the Logia-type can not decide everything.”
Kabuto interrupted Uehara. He pushed up his glasses and opened his palm to introduce, “Lieutenant Commander Uehara, do you know why Fleet Admiral Sengoku placed such high hopes on Rear Admiral Drake?”
Kabuto’s expression gradually became serious, “Rear Admiral Drake is an Ancient Zoan-type Devil Fruit, Ryu Ryu no Mi, Model: Allosaurus(Dragon-Dragon Fruit, Model: Allosaurus). His combat strength on land is also very astonishing…”
“Alright.”
Rear Admiral Drake interrupted Kabuto, slowly closed his palm, and placed it on the table, “We’ll look for a suitable area in the next few days and find Crocodile position. This is the first mission of our SWORD unit. We can’t make any mistakes.”
“Yes.”
Kabuto pushed his glasses.
Rear Admiral Drake clenched his fingers into a fist. He continued calmly, “I won’t arrogantly think that I can defeat Crocodile, but I won’t take the initiative to retreat in the face of an evil pirate…”
“…”
Outside the door, Aokiji couldn’t help but put on his blindfold.
This battle meeting really made Aokiji have no eyes to look at it.
