In Sengoku’s office.

Garp’s mouth was obviously not as sharp as Kabuto’s.

Kabuto, who had always been famous for his ingenuity and intelligence, was very clear about Vice Admiral Garp’s Achilles heel. Every word could directly pierce into Garp’s Achilles heel.

Seeing that a dispute was about to start, Tsuru looked at Kabuto and said, “Little Kabuto, we are here to discuss Akatsuki… About the new pirate Straw Hat Luffy, let’s put it aside for the time being!”

The relationship between Tsuru and Kabuto had always been good, and she had always taken good care of Kabuto. However, because Kabuto’s promotion was too fast in the past two years. Kabuto gradually showed the intention of leaving the marine and wanting to go to a high position, so their relationship was a bit distant.

Among the people present, only Tsuru’s identity was not high. But in terms of relationships, she was close to Kabuto and Garp and could persuade them.

If Tsuru was qualified to persuade Kabuto…

There was no doubt that Uehara could stop Kabuto.

“Vice Admiral Kabuto.”

Uehara slowly lowered his head and said, “When I saved Luffy, I knew that he would go out to sea to become a pirate…

And it was Luffy’s persuasion that made me gather the courage to face my past and let me understand that as long as I still have the dream of joining the marine to carry out justice, I should do it no matter how difficult it is.”

Uehara raised his head again, his eyes were firm, and his expression gradually became excited, “That’s why I dared to accept your invitation in Alabasta to join the Marine SWORD unit and jointly overthrow the evil pirate Crocodile!”

“…”

The entire office was silent.

All the people present couldn’t help but be stunned when they heard Uehara’s words.

The expression of the three Marine Admirals seemed to be struck by lightning. What the hell was this guy talking about?

Dare to become a marine because of the encouragement of a pirate?

This guy was too outrageous!

If not for Aokiji, Akainu, and Kizaru, who really knew Uehara’s identity, they would have thought that Uehara’s story sounded like it was true…

Just like the real thing.

Unfortunately, this story didn’t fit his real identity at all.

The three Marine Admirals woke up in an instant, and their expression became very ugly. Was this Uehara pretending again?

Unfortunately…

The three old men in the office could not tell.

“Bwahaha…”

Garp looked at Uehara and could not help but laugh, “Little brat Uehara, I really like you more and more! When the matter here is over, I’ll introduce you to the two good new recruits by my side. If you guys talk, you will definitely have a common language!”

In fact.

It was not the first time that Luffy had provoked the marine. There was Captain Morgan, who was in East Blue Marines 153rd Branch. He was the first Marine Captain that Luffy had defeated.

However, because they were grateful to Luffy for defeating the brutal Captain, they didn’t report him to Marineford. When Garp went to East Blue, he knew about this and brought back two recruits.

One of the recruits was named Koby.

The recruit named Koby seemed to have joined the marine under Luffy’s encouragement.

Just as Garp was laughing, Uehara shook his head and whispered, “Of course, since I become a marine. I must execute justice, so I will not let Luffy go…”

At this point, Uehara slowly turned to look at the Marine Fleet Admiral Sengoku, “Lord Fleet Admiral, I request a transfer and go to East Blue to capture Luffy!

Because I believe in Luffy’s strength, he will never be a simple pirate; he must have the possibility to threaten justice!”

“Bwahaha…”

Garp, who was sitting next to Uehara, laughed and nodded. He even looked at Uehara with encouragement, “Sure, sure. Little brat Uehara, quickly help me catch that bastard Luffy for me!”

“…”

Sengoku fell silent.

To be honest, Sengoku did not want to agree to this.

“I know, the marine can not offend the superiors.”

Uehara slowly lowered his head and softly continued, “But I don’t want to continue hiding my identity and continue to carry out justice in the dark… Because I’m worried about myself. I don’t know when I may mix with the dark…”

Uehara slowly clenched his fists and said in a low voice, “I saw the darkness in Wano Country, but in order not to expose my identity, I could only hide to the side… Every day, I was worried that I would really become so cold-blooded…”

Uehara’s voice became lower and lower, and the atmosphere in the entire office became a little gloomy under his voice, “I once secretly wanted to help, but the members of the CP0 stopped me…

They were also killing people, and they killed those people I wanted to help just to prevent me from going out and possibly revealing my identity!”

“…”

Everyone present fell silent.

Even Aokiji couldn’t help but tilt his head. Was what Uehara said true? Why did it feel more and more real?

This kind of thing was indeed in line with the style of CP0.

In order to avoid the risk of a spy being exposed out of kindness, the CP0 would kill the person that the spy wanted to help and solve the spy’s motive for revealing himself from the root.

Moreover, everyone knew that the CP0 would really do this. They also had the right to do so because the CP0 was directly serving the Celestial Dragon.

Of course…

The World Government also had the right to mobilize them.

And now, there were only seven people who possessed the authority to mobilize the CP0. Apart from the Five Elder Stars, there were only Kabuto and the current World Government Commander-in-Chief Kong.

Obviously…

According to Fleet Admiral Sengoku and Vice Admiral Tsuru’s guesses, the activity CP0 in Wano Country was likely Kabuto’s order.

After all…

Only Kabuto had been monitoring Wano Country’s information.

They couldn’t help but look at Kabuto.

Kabuto slowly pushed up his glasses, revealing a serious expression on his face, “Captain Uehara Naraku, what the CP0 did to Wano Country was my intention. Everything I did was for your safety…”

When he said this, Kabuto’s face even revealed a trace of seriousness, “If not for you, the CP0 wouldn’t have lost so many people. Even when the CP0 protected the World Nobles, they didn’t suffer great losses than protecting you!”

This sentence was also very correct.

Ever since the Akatsuki Organization occupied Wano Country, the CP0 had constantly been losing manpower in Wano Country. Even the Celestial Dragon’s CP0 was decreasing. The entire CP department was constantly losing blood, and it was somewhat difficult to bear the loss of the CP0 agent.

Every year, the CP0 members sent to Wano Country would sink into the sea. If not for the fact that Kabuto was good at cultivating spies, the CP department might have been paralyzed…

“Vice Admiral Kabuto, but those people that I wanted to save, not only were they not saved by me, they died under our butcher’s knife because of me…”

A shadow gradually appeared on Uehara’s face. He clenched his teeth tightly and continued in a low voice, “What do you want me to do? I only dared to vent my anger on my own. I said to myself that it was for a greater purpose to convince myself…

However, the feeling of powerlessness and guilt that I couldn’t get rid of was like a nightmare. I didn’t know how long I could hold on…”

“Captain Uehara…”

Sengoku slowly took off his glasses and wiped the fog from his glasses. This Marine Fleet Admiral finally felt the pain and struggle of a spy.

This story completely moved the heart of this Marine Fleet Admiral.

Back then…

His adopted son Corazon…

In fact, he was suffering from the same pain as Uehara, right?

No, or it could be said that Corazon’s suffering was even greater because what Corazon was spying on was his own brother, Donquixote Doflamingo.

In the end, Corazon eventually died.

Now, Uehara has returned from Wano Country in torment.

If he forced Uehara to carry out the undercover mission again, something might really happen with the spirit of this marine who has chosen to be a righteous man…

Sengoku slowly put his glasses back on the bridge of his nose. He shook his head and sighed. He then said with a serious face, “Alright, after we end this meeting, I will promote you according to your achievements, and…”

“You can’t…”

Kabuto pushed up his glasses and stood in front of the Fleet Admiral’s desk. He slowly said, “Captain Uehara Naraku is the most skilled undercover member in the Marine SWORD unit. How many people did the CP0 waste to make him hide in Wano Country for so many years…”

The corner of Kabuto’s mouth curved up, revealing a sneer as he looked at Sengoku, “Lord Fleet Admiral, do you really think that the CP0 protected him for such a long time just to let him come back and be an ordinary Marine Captain?”

Kabuto slowly squatted in front of Uehara and said with a smile, “No… I will recruit him to the CP0 department and continue to be his old job…”

“Little Kabuto!”

Tsuru’s face suddenly became ugly. She looked at this white-haired young man whom she had once regarded as the hope of the marine in disbelief.

Didn’t Kabuto hear Uehara just now?

Why did Kabuto become like this?

Could it be that after staying in World Government for such a long time, he was gradually corroded by the power there? The current Kabuto was simply treating human lives like grass!

“Little Kabuto… Why did you become like this?”

Tsuru couldn’t help but look at Kabuto. She sighed and said, “Captain Uehara, have already had enough of that dark life. If this continues, he might not be able to play the role of a spy as you wish…”

“Vice Admiral Kabuto!”

Sengoku slowly stood up, looked at Kabuto, and said in a deep voice, “Now I am still the Marine Fleet Admiral; I still have the qualifications to decide the appointment of a Marine Vice Admiral!”

Uehara has been undercover for almost three years in Wano Country and has provided endless information for the Marine and World Government. From now on, Uehara will be promoted to Marine Vice Admiral; now, you are on the same rank, Vice Admiral Kabuto!”

“…”

Kabuto’s face changed.

The next moment, Kabuto slowly stood up and reached out to massage Uehara’s shoulders. His smile gradually became strange, “What great courage, Lord Fleet Admiral?”

Kabuto picked up a glass of juice again and handed it to the stunned Uehara. He smiled and said, “The promotion speed is very fast… Vice Admiral Uehara Naraku… In the future, I wish you good luck in the sea. I will also let the CP department protect you at any time!”

“…”

This sentence made Sengoku’s expression become more and more ugly.

In the eyes of this Marine Fleet Admiral, Kabuto definitely did not want the CP department to protect him but used the CP department to monitor Uehara.

This guy, Kabuto…

Ever since he had slowly stepped into World Government, becoming a celebrity in the eyes of the Five Elder Stars and the Celestial Dragons, he had become more and more arrogant!

Moreover…

This guy really had the capital to be arrogant!

The Kabuto, who was very friendly to others, now it seemed that he was actually a vulture in a coat of dove of peace!

Unfortunately…

Sengoku couldn’t do anything to him.

While Sengoku and Kabuto were arguing, the three Marine Admirals was still sitting calmly as if nothing had happened.

At this moment, the three of them really didn’t know what to say.

The three Marine Admiral looked at each other; Aokiji held his chin and continued to stare blankly; Akainu slowly closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep; Kizaru started to fix his nails.

Marineford’s life was really boring…

“Huh?”

Aokiji suddenly reacted and looked at Uehara in disbelief.

Sengoku and Kabuto almost got into a fight…

As a result… Uehara was promoted?
