Chapter 324
Unexpected harvest news about Ain, Lin Tian flashed a sense of eagerness and worry about Ain.
Smoker asked: “Lin Tian, you found us for no reason. You must have come with some purpose. One doesn’t visit a temple without a cause.”
After staying under the man in front of him for half a year, Smoker knew this man too well, just like he always taught them, to do everything, everyone has a purpose.
“Purpose.” Tashigi suddenly became nervous, holding the sword at her waist tightly with both hands, “Could it be that you are here to hijack these pirates and save them?”
Both pirates, coming here now, Tashigi can only think of this reason, because they have nothing to attract except Seven Warlords.
Crack, da…
In an instant, the sound of bullets being loaded rang out, and the marines, who was hundreds of meters away, raised the weapon in their hands with a vigilant look, facing Lin Tian above.
Smoker stretched out his hand to stop everyone’s movements, staring at the top, “Stop! This man has never dealt with Seven Warlords in Marine, how could he come here for Crocodile, let alone the two has hostile relationship.”
“Yes.” Hina stepped forward and stood next to Smoker, echoing: “And even if he wants to do it, we can’t stop him.”
Because of knowing Lin Tian, neither Hina nor Smoker thinks that Lin Tian will come here for Seven Warlords, there must be some purpose.
She just thought about it carelessly. She also doesn’t know why they’re so interested in Lin Tian.
With a faint smile, Lin Tian neither admitted nor refuted anything, but turned his gaze to Tashigi, who was nervous on the side.
“I remember you in Loguetown, your name is Tashigi.” Lin Tian said in a meeting with his chin supported.
Seeing Lin Tian mentioning herself, Tashigi’s heart was even more tense, sweat was dripping out of her palms, clutching the handle of the sword tightly, with a look of alert.
He didn’t care about Tashigi’s nervousness, but Lin Tian laughed at her suddenly, “didn’t expect, what I always wanted to do back then, but now a Marine Headquarters Chief has done it.”
When Lin Tian said this, everyone couldn’t help but was stunned. Among them, Tashigi was the most shocked. From his tone, it seemed to express that she did something that Lin Tian couldn’t do back then.
This makes Tashigi a little confused, Lin Tian was Marine Vice Admiral back then, the headquarter genius. How could she do something that he didn’t dare to do?
Hina reacted very quickly, she understood something at a glance, and said, “We’re just here to capture a Seven Warlords. You made a lot of noise in New World back then, but you’re talking about Tashigi here…”
Hearing this, Lin Tian couldn’t help showing a wry smile. It’s the same Although he had a conflict with Doflamingo, which is well known to everyone, Lin Tian didn’t use his hands, except that there was no evidence. His Seven Warlords ident.i.ty is also a reason.
Lin Tian continue to say, “Back then, I mentioned the cancellation of the Seven Warlords system, but it didn’t pa.s.s, I know why.”
“Why?” Tashigi asked without even thinking about it, filled with puzzlement.
Smoker said, “Because of balance. Seven Warlords, Four Emperors, and Marine are the balance of Grand Line. The Three Great Influences. If one party is broken, it means that this balance is broken. Like Fleet Admiral Sengoku also know that Seven Warlords is a sc.u.m on the sea, but why they are still allowed to join Seven Warlords? Because of balance, and this time, although Crocodile is wrong, it also shows Marine’s att.i.tude, compared with this matter, is also a big shock to Grand Line, but…” Speaking of this Smoker, he turned his head, staring at Lin Tian closely, and said: “However, these should not have much to do with you, Marine traitor. What is your purpose here?”
Hearing this, Lin Tian also retracted his previous words and moved to the topic, “This time, I just want to talk to Fleet Admiral Sengoku. By the way, congratulations, Smoker. You’ve stayed as Marine Captain for so long, this time you’re very likely to be promoted.”
Smoker was taken aback, reacted quickly, and asked in a deep voice: “Fleet Admiral Sengoku, promotion… what the h.e.l.l is going on?”
From Lin Tian’s words, Smoker had a bad feeling that today’s events would surpa.s.s what he thought.
Also puzzled, there are Hina and Tashigi. Why are things suddenly related to the headquarters today, although they also partic.i.p.ated in this incident, but according to their practices, it is a miracle not to be punished, how can it be a promotion so suddenly?
Hina didn’t hesitate to ask, “Lin Tian, what on earth are these things, how do you know these things.”
Maybe a little tired from standing, Lin Tian sat down directly against the wall of the ship, “Have you forgotten? I was just like you back then. I walked up from the bottom step by step. I know more than you about the urine of high-level marine officers.”
Speaking of this, Lin Tian’s tone was full of sarcasm, “The Arabasta incident is so violent that it can’t be covered up at all. Seven Warlords has been secretly peaking the world’s government alliance countries, but Marine found out every movement. Capturing Crocodile is not a lost in the face. Moreover, it was discovered that a group of pirates saved the country. This shows how useless Marine is. If it is spread out, Marine will lose face thoroughly.”
Lin Tian said here, Smoker and Hina already understood a little, their faces were very difficult to look at. They are both colonels of the Marine Headquarters Captains, so why are the curves in this place unclear.
In order not to lose face, those old men will definitely cover up this matter and say that saving the country and defeating Crocodile was their effort, so that they can earn a reputation for Marine.
Of course, they will definitely be promoted, which is what Lin Tian said.
“If this were the case, I would definitely not agree to those old man’s orders.” Smoker said through gritted teeth.
Hearing this, Lin Tian couldn’t help shaking his head secretly, this kid Smoker still doesn’t understand, this kind of thing is not a matter of your reluctance, in the Marine, there are some things that can’t be helped.
bru bru bru bru …
Den Den Mushi’s voice sounded at this time, Lin Tian’s face changed slightly, and a smile appeared. It seems that Marine Headquarters is not slow. They didn’t let him wait long.
He picked up Den Den Mushi at hand, and a deep voice came from there, “This is the Marine headquarters, are you Captain Smoker?”
“Me? No, no. I’m Lin Tian!”
Bang! The next moment, there was a sound of a heavy object hitting the ground on the opposite side, and fell into a strange silence, followed by a panicked and harsh sound, Lin Tian couldn’t help but keep Den Den Mushi away.
After more than ten seconds, a deep breath faintly came from Den Den Mushi, and then a voice pretending to be calm came from behind, but the words still revealed tension, “May I ask which Lin Tian you are…”
In Lin Tian’s calm words, there was a hint of joke, “Excuse me, besides the former Marine Vice Admiral Lin Tian, who else is called by this name? Call the Fleet Admiral Sengoku right away.”
But the opposite Marine didn’t think so. There was another ground noise, followed by a noisy sound, accompanied by panicked footsteps.
Lin Tian couldn’t help flashing a wry smile on his face, he was so terrifying that the person just answering the phone, he felt like Lin Tian would eat him.
bang bang bang ……
His fingers tapped on the wall of the ship under his hands, his face was full of calmness, and it was hard to predict what he was thinking about before the slightest change in his expression.
“What to do, Captain Smoker?” Tashigi asked in a low voice: “Am I just staying here and waiting?”
Breathing out the smoke from his mouth, Smoker retracted his gaze, “We can still do this now, only waiting for the call between Lin Tian and Fleet Admiral Sengoku, otherwise it will be difficult for us to do anything.”
Knowing that it was the former Marine Vice Admiral Lin Tian. Those Marine soldiers on the opposite side were already shocked. They quickly pa.s.sed through corridors in a panic and moved towards the Fleet Admiral Sengoku office of Marine headquarters.
After waiting for a few minutes, the immersed Den Den Mushi was finally broken through, and the familiar voice of Fleet Admiral Sengoku came from the ground.
“Lin Tian, the Marine traitor. How come you suddenly appeared there and talked to me specifically, now we should be regarded as hostile relations, betraying Marine, there should be nothing to talk about between us.”
As soon as we met, Sengoku didn’t have too much nonsense, and asked towards Lin Tian straight to the point. His tone was full of calm and calm, and it was difficult to get anything from his tone.
Since the other party was straight to the point, the words that Lin Tian had prepared were buried in his stomach, so he directly stated his purpose, “Sengoku, this time I will not talk nonsense, we will do A deal.”
“Deal?” A question came from the other side, and Sengoku’s tone changed slightly, “Lin Tian, I think there should be no good deals between us.”
“No, I think we have one, Fleet Admiral Sengoku. This time I got a very interesting thing. I don’t know if Fleet Admiral Sengoku still remembers about East Blue Incident.”
Lin Tian showed a smug smile on his face, and the headquarters sent that many troops to East Blue. What exactly was inside? I don’t have to say any more, Sengoku can understand.
Sure enough, just as Lin Tian had expected, Sengoku heard Lin Tian actually say East Blue, and the complexion greatly changed in an instant. At that moment, the plain state of mind was directly diluted at that moment.
“How do you know and did you do it?”
“No, no, no.” Lin Tian repeatedly said no, “I didn’t do it, I just happened to pa.s.s there, someone happened to hate Marine, but I didn’t expect that what was excavated there was actually used against me.”
Hearing Lin Tian’s explanation, Sengoku couldn’t help but feel relieved. It was already clear that the attacker was Shiki who had disappeared for more than 20 years.
He almost thought that Lin Tian was getting along with Shiki, and when the two enemies got together, they would be a huge threat to Marine.
Since Lin Tian already knows that kind of thing, compared to the other thing, it has already fallen into his hands, so Lin Tian’s chips will make Sengoku think deeply.
“Okay, let’s talk about the conditions first, then let’s talk about the specific transaction!”
