"So what's your opinion?" Sengoku raised his head, scanning both sides, seemingly waiting for Kizaru and Garp to answer.

"Notify the World Government. This matter is extremely important; tell them to prepare," Zephyr said without thinking. In truth, he had no good feelings for the Celestial Dragons, but this matter concerned the face of the World Government and the Marines, so he had to take it seriously.

"I agree," Garp nodded.

"I agree," Kizaru said.

"I agree," Aokiji said.

"I agree," Tsuru said.

...

Seeing that everyone's opinions were unanimous, Sengoku stood up. He took out a den den mushi from a drawer and skillfully connected it to the den den mushi in Mary Geoise.

Before long, the den den mushi opened its eyes. Its face was old and wrinkled. "Sengoku?" The den den mushi let out an aged voice.

"I am Sengoku," Sengoku replied.

"What's the matter?"

Upon hearing this, Sengoku took a deep breath and relayed Tsuru's deduction of one-fifth to the Five Elders, specifically emphasizing the strength of Ye Chen and the others, intentionally making them more cautious.

"We know. We'll be careful about this matter."

As soon as the words fell, the den den mushi on the Five Elders' side hung up.

Everyone in the room looked at each other. They hadn't expected that the information they had discussed for so long in the middle of the night would be dismissed so indifferently by the World Government.

It was as if you kindly told someone there was danger ahead, yet the other party completely ignored it.

It felt like their kindness was being treated as donkey lungs (a colloquial idiom meaning good intentions are misinterpreted or wasted).

Zephyr's brows furrowed. He raised his head and said to Sengoku, "Sengoku, what should we do now?"

Sengoku opened his mouth, not knowing what to say. He had gone to great lengths to gather everyone and discuss for so long, yet the World Government simply said they knew and then hung up the phone. Not to mention anything else, Sengoku's heart wasn't very comfortable at this moment.

"What else can we do? Go back to sleep. This old man is tired."

As he spoke, Garp stood up, yawned a few times, and slowly walked out of the office.

"My injuries haven't healed yet; I need to rest. I'm leaving too."

Kizaru saw Garp leading the way, and immediately stood up and said something, then quickly followed Garp's back out.

"Fleet Admiral Sengoku, I've come all the way from the West Blue, and I'm quite tired. I'm leaving too." After saying that, Aokiji slowly walked out.

Akainu saw Kizaru and Aokiji leave, and immediately he didn't want to stay either. He simply told Sengoku he was going back and left.

Not long after, Tsuru and Zephyr also left.

In a short time, everyone had left, leaving only Sengoku alone.

Looking at the empty room, his face was filled with helplessness.

"Everything that needed to be said has been said. As for what happens, let fate decide."

...

...

"What do you think of the Marines' speculation?"

In a luxurious and magnificent room, five old men sat around a round table. The first to speak was an old man with long white straight hair and a long beard.

"The Marines are getting worse and worse. They haven't caught these little pirates for so long," an old man with white curly hair and a flat hat with a scar on his left cheek first spoke, his words filled with dissatisfaction towards the Marines.

"I think the Marines should be replaced. Keeping them is just wasting our food."

The five old men spoke one after another, their words filled with dissatisfaction towards the Marines.

These five ordinary-looking old men were the pillars of the World Government, the renowned "Five Elders," and were currently the highest authorities in the World Government. Each of them held a higher position than Marine Fleet Admiral Sengoku.

"Although the Marines are somewhat useless, keeping them is still fine. But what are your thoughts on Ye Chen and the others they mentioned?"

"What's there to care about a mere little pirate? Let CP0 go catch them."

An old man with golden hair and a scar on his chest said indifferently.

"I don't think so. Kizaru and Zephyr are both top combat forces of the Marines. They were both heavily injured, so we can roughly infer the depth of this Ye Chen. CP0 going would be like throwing an egg at a rock," an old man with a bald head and a sword spoke.

At these words, the Five Elders fell silent. Although they were dissatisfied with the Marines, they still acknowledged the strength of Kizaru and the others. At first, they were quite surprised to hear that they were heavily injured.

"Have Ye Chen and the others been thoroughly investigated?"

"Temporarily, there's no useful information."

"In that case, let all the Celestial Nobles return to Mary Geoise first. I don't believe Ye Chen and his group dare to attack Mary Geoise."

"I agree with that. Gather all Celestial Nobles back to Mary Geoise first, then continue to let CP0 investigate information on Ye Chen and his group. I don't believe he left no traces."

"I agree with this."

"Seconded."

"For now, let's just do that."

The five men discussed for a while and finally settled the matter.

However, their discussion seemed very cautious towards Ye Chen, but their words revealed their high-and-mighty attitude. They didn't really care about the Marines' deductions, and could even be said to disdain them.

They firmly believed that Ye Chen wouldn't dare to barge into Mary Geoise, or rather, they believed that no one in this world dared to.

This was a kind of illness that arose from holding power for too long.

And Ye Chen knew that the Five Elders were afraid he would kill a Celestial Dragon, which would cause the Celestial Dragons to be gathered back. He probably laughed himself to death.

At first, his target was indeed to kidnap Celestial Dragons, but now his target was Mary Geoise.

Therefore, the Five Elders gathering Celestial Dragons back would have no effect on Ye Chen. On the contrary, it might cause quite a few Celestial Dragons to die due to this gathering.

And their so-called absolutely safe Mary Geoise would become a thing of the past in the near future.

...

In Amazon Lily, on an empty patch of ground, Uruki, Osiris, and Ye Chen stood on the ground, while above, Osiris's massive body hovered in the sky.

Osiris was the first to speak: "Lord Ye Chen, this time you gathered us, are you ready to make a move?"

"The words have been out for so long, it's time to present the grand gift. Otherwise, others will say we are untrustworthy."
