Behind the Scenes in Naruto World Chapter 555 - The Shichibukai Who Must Be Replaced!

Chapter 555 - The s.h.i.+chibukai Who Must Be Replaced!

The sea situation changed suddenly.

Just as everyone was waiting for the war between Whitebeard and the Marines, waiting for the war that was about to break out.

In the end, another shocking news came out first. Red Hair Pirates was completely defeated by the marine… Even Shanks, one of the Yonko(Four Emperors), was arrested!

The other two news were not worth mentioning.

Red Hair Pirates’ vice-captain Benn Beckman took a big detour. When the other Red Hair Pirates were arrested, he led Red Hair Pirates’ remnants to attack Marineford who was not guarded by Admiral. As a result, he was repelled by Fleet Admiral Sengoku.

In order to capture Red Hair Pirates’ remnants, the Three Admirals immediately returned to help Marineford. As a result, Benn Beckman did not leave after withdrawing. Instead, he rode a small boat and attacked the marine wars.h.i.+p that was escorting the prisoners.

The person who was responsible for escorting the Red Hair Pirates was the Vice Admiral they had captured before. Wasn’t this a coincidence?

Therefore…

Benn Beckman once again captured Uehara.

It was a pity that Shanks was not on the escorted wars.h.i.+p. He was detained in the Enies Lobby…

The other pirates who were supposed to be sent to Impel Down Prison were all rescued by Benn Beckman. This vice-captain who was known as the most scheming was really elusive…

However, compared to Shanks being arrested and imprisoned, this small matter was not worth mentioning to the marine. It only made Fleet Admiral Sengoku lose face in front of the Five Elder Stars…

Next, the first half of the Grandline was no longer peaceful.

According to Red Hair Pirates’ character, they would never let go of the chance to save their captain. It was only because of the performance of the CP department in Enies Lobby’s incident that the World Government was not worried about the Red Hair Pirates’ threat…

Even…

The World Government had a new interest.

Who would have thought that in just a few years, Enies Lobby’s CP department was already comparable to Yonko(Four Emperors) Pirate Group, especially Kabuto could even recruit a powerhouse comparable to Red Hair Shanks!

The only problem was…

According to Kabuto, the loyalty of these powerhouses was not very good. Because the CP department could bring benefits to them, so they could work for the CP department.

It didn’t matter.

A person who can be bound by interests means that he can be used; after all, the World Government and the Marine pay Kakuzu a lot of money every year…

Water 7.

Due to the turmoil in Enies Lobby, the first half of the Grand Line was a little lively. Water 7 was one of the closest islands to Enies Lobby, so it was naturally not calm…

Even this place became the territory of the pirates.

However, there were two more big businesses in Water 7. Red Hair Pirates paid a sum of money and asked Water 7 to help build two pirate s.h.i.+ps.

One of the s.h.i.+ps was self-used…

The other s.h.i.+p was given to the Straw Hat Pirates.

In the incident of Enies Lobby, the s.h.i.+p spirit born in the Going Merry rushed to Enies Lobby to save the Straw Hat Pirates and Red Hair Pirates at the most dangerous time.

It’s just that this small s.h.i.+p can no longer experience the twists and turns of the Grand Line…

Therefore, the Straw Hat Pirates got a s.h.i.+p called Thousand Sunny in Water 7, and Red Hair Pirates simply ask to build a new Red Force.

The new Red Force will continue to be active in the first half of the Grand Line, looking for a chance to save their Captain Shanks. The Straw Hat Pirates decided to go to Sabaody Archipelago and find a person named Rayleigh.

This information…

When the Straw Hat Pirates were on Jaya, Uehara told them that once they failed to save Ace, they should go to find the vice-captain of the Pirate King, Rayleigh.

When Red Hair Pirates’ vice-captain Benn Beckman heard about this, he scratched his head. It seemed that it was a mistake for them to kidnap Uehara?

If it was true…

Then that guy should be a good person!

It was just that guy’s luck was not very good.

After being caught by Red Hair Pirates twice in a row, I don’t know how that Vice Admiral’s life was…

Of course, Uehara’s life was not good.

Because he was once captured by Shanks, Uehara followed Admirals back to Marineford. After that, he was reprimanded by Sengoku for an entire afternoon…

This matter was really unfair.

What can an ordinary Vice Admiral do when he meets a Yonko(Four Emperors)?

No matter which Vice Admiral, he has no way to deal with a Yonko(Four Emperors), he can only be tied up.

And he met Red Hair Pirates twice in a row!

Uehara could only say that his luck was bad.

This was indeed his bad luck. Even if it was another Vice Admiral, it would be impossible for them to escape when they met the Red Hair Pirates. Unfortunately, this matter ultimately caused Sengoku’s face to fall, especially in front of Kabuto…

Moreover, Kabuto mocked and ridiculed Sengoku, directly suggesting to Sengoku to let Uehara leave the marine so as to avoid wasting Uehara’s life…

“Well, no matter what, Vice Admiral Uehara Naraku has made great contributions before.”

After Sengoku scolded Uehara, he knocked on his table and said coldly, “At least let him make a contribution to the upcoming war!”

After saying this, Sengoku suddenly glanced coldly at Uehara and said in a deep voice, “Forget it, let Uehara go to Sabaody…”

When he said this, Sengoku turned to look at Kabuto and snorted disdainfully, “Advisor Kabuto, when we were discussing just now, didn’t you say that Sabaody should have a marine to protect those World n.o.bles who often make trouble?”

Kabuto, the lackey of the Celestial Dragons…

It makes people feel a little ashamed.

Originally, the marine had no choice but to protect the sc.u.m Celestial Dragons according to the World Government’s orders, making the marine’s att.i.tude toward the Celestial Dragons very unfriendly…

However, Kabuto, who came from the marine, relied on the CP department to curry favor with the Celestial Dragons and the Five Elder Stars in the past few years, which was why he had a quick rise today…

Those Celestial Dragons liked to roam around Sabaody the most.

Moreover, there was no Vice Admiral in charge of guarding Sabaody’s place right now.

Therefore, they simply sent Uehara to guard Sabaody Archipelago and protect the Celestial Dragons who often appeared in Sabaody, as well as intercept the supernovas that were about to enter Sabaody Archipelago.

To guard Sabaody Archipelago…

This was a troublesome matter that no other marine wanted to get involved in. Those Celestial Dragons were arrogant to anyone, and their att.i.tude toward the marine was very bad.

Every time the Celestial Dragons appeared, it also meant that the marine was in big trouble.

Even so, the Sabaody Archipelago had to be heavily guarded.

Because Sabaody Archipelago was one of the transit stations in the first half of the Grand Line and pirate s.h.i.+ps can’t casually enter the New World. They needed to be coated in Sabaody Archipelago before diving to Fishman Island to enter the New World.

The marine was stationed there all year round, in addition to arresting some ignorant newcomers and pirates, it was also to protect the Celestial Dragons who could appear in Sabaody Archipelago at any time.

However, because they were about to start a war with Whitebeard Pirates, most of the elite troops stationed in the Sabaody Archipelago were transferred back to Marineford.

The Fleet Admiral Sengoku, based on the principle of waste utilization, asked Uehara to rush to Sabaody Archipelago to take up a post and let him directly be the nanny of the Celestial Dragons.

Similarly, it was also to make him out of sight so he would not feel annoyed…

After all, ever since Uehara became a Vice Admiral, he had made a lot of mistakes. Every mistake he made caused Sengoku to have a headache…

This Uehara was here to collect debts, right?

Why did he promote this guy to Vice Admiral in the first place…

Every day, when Sengoku thought of Uehara, he couldn’t help but feel some regret in his heart. This old man really regretted it…

This Uehara was exactly the same as Kabuto said, he didn’t have the ability to become a Vice Admiral. Every big event, he was bound to be a burden to the Marine!

What a shame!

In Marineford’s office.

Fleet Admiral Sengoku waved to Uehara to leave, “Well, Vice Admiral Uehara, after you leave this office, you can report to Sabaody Archipelago!”

“Yes.”

Uehara slowly clenched his fist, as if he was humiliated. He stepped out of the Fleet Admiral’s Office and said, “I know, Lord Fleet Admiral.”

“…”

After watching Uehara leave, Kabuto shook his head helplessly. He couldn’t help but smile, “Lord Fleet Admiral, you didn’t listen to my advice today. Let Vice Admiral Uehara Naraku leave the marine. You will regret it in the future…”

“Kabuto, I am the Marine Fleet Admiral!”

Sengoku coldly glanced at Kabuto, his eyes full of warning, “As long as I am still in the position of the Marine Fleet Admiral, you will never be able to rely on the relations.h.i.+p between your CP department and World Government to threaten the marine to become your tool…”

“Don’t worry.”

Kabuto pushed up his gla.s.ses and chuckled, “Then, let’s continue to discuss the conscription of s.h.i.+chibukai!”

“En…”

Sengoku slowly nodded and took out a name list, “Seven s.h.i.+chibukai, apart from the “Pirate Empress” Boa Hanc.o.c.k, six of them have chosen to agree to the conscription…”

To tell the truth…

This number was already quite good.

After all, six of them had chosen to accept the conscription without even asking for anything. There were even a few s.h.i.+chibukai who were already on their way to Marineford.

“Ha, Pirate Empress…”

Kabuto chuckled, and a cold light flashed across his eyes. He casually continued, “Then just abolish her s.h.i.+chibukai position!”

“Isn’t this a bit inappropriate?”

Tsuru frowned and whispered to the side, “If we abolish a s.h.i.+chibukai’s position at this time, won’t we have to face another enemy?”

“Anyway, besides her, there are others who will be abolished!”

Kabuto closed his palm and said softly, “No matter what, at least we have to abolish s.h.i.+chibukai Bartholomew k.u.ma. Because according to the intelligence of the CP department, we have sufficient evidence to prove that this s.h.i.+chibukai is a spy of the Revolutionary Army…”

“What?”

Sengoku couldn’t hide the shock in his eyes.

In the next moment, Sengoku suddenly thought of something, and his face turned ugly, “During this period of time, Bartholomew k.u.ma has been in contact with Dr. Vegapunk, and even the latest technology weapon of the marine – Pacifista…”

“There’s no need to worry about this.”

Kabuto slowly continued, “Vegapunk has always been under our control. The Pacifista Project will not have any accidents…

However, the opponents we have to face are Whitebeard Pirates and the Revolutionary Army. There is no need for Bartholomew k.u.ma to appear on the battlefield!

“Little Kabuto…”

Tsuru frowned and whispered, “It’s not easy to find a replacement in such a short time. Although there are many supernovas this year, their personalities are abnormally unruly. It’s hard to say that they will accept s.h.i.+chibukai’s position. Their strength is also much weaker, right?”

“Then choose some fallen pirates who wanted to become s.h.i.+chibukai…”

Kabuto knocked on his finger and said calmly, “The captain of the art pirate group, Deidara, has a bounty of 190 million Beli. This number should be enough, right?”

When Kabuto said this, his mouth showed a smile, “I once work with him before. That guy Deidara wanted to get Crocodile’s s.h.i.+chibukai position…”
