Pirates: The Strongest Justice - #57 - Chapter 57 Five Elders
“I’ll go, I’m scared to death!”
In the sky not far away from where Atlas and Crocodile were fighting, an albatross wearing a top hat and a black suit patted its chest very humanely and seemed to be frightened. Not lightly, he slowly landed on the ground and carefully checked the camera he had just taken.
“It’s okay, it’s okay, it’s not damaged!”
…………
Here, Atlas put seastone handcuffs on Crocodile and threw him into a temporary prison on the warship. Then he ordered people to deliver food to him on time to ensure that he would not starve to death. Marine’s warship is still designed It’s very reasonable. Everything like the kitchen, training room, bedroom, and prison are all fully equipped.
The return flight went smoothly. Within a few days, Atlas and others arrived at the port of G-8 Fortress. After handing over Crocodile to the fortress prison, they went straight to Jonathan’s office.
After all, as the top officer of the base, Atlas had brought back a “big guy”, so of course he had to report the detailed process of the battle.
Dong dong dong…
“Please come in!”
Jonathan still had the same image of burgundy hair and thick mustache, wearing a white shirt and sitting casually behind the desk. He was not surprised at all when he saw Atlas coming in. Instead, he changed from his usual deep expression. He looked at Atlas with a smile.
“Report to Vice Admiral Jonathan! The mission was successfully completed! The Alabasta incident was committed by the current Shichibukai Crocodile, and he has been arrested!”
Atlas also noticed Jonathan’s expression, but didn’t care. He just thought he was happy that he completed the task quickly.
“I already know, now, look at this!”
Jonathan picked up a newspaper on the table and handed it to Atlas, who looked confused.
Atlas took the newspaper, and what caught his eye was the headline in capital letters: “Shocked!” Marine actually did this to Shichibukai Crocodile! World government may abolish Shichibukai? 》.
Most of the content of the newspaper is the detailed process of the battle between Atlas and Crocodile, and analyzes the world situation based on this battle, such as how the world government broke the Shichibukai Covenant, and the balance of the world is about to be broken.
In the middle, Crocodile’s inhuman form and Atlas’ majestic appearance are also attached. I wonder if Crocodile will hunt this reporter to death if he comes out of prison.
Atlas looked at the person signing this article again. It was a reporter named Morgans.
Morgans? He seems to be the king of news in the underground world. No wonder he ‘saw’ a huge bird when he was fighting Crocodile. I heard that this guy is a person with bird fruit ability.
At the time, he didn’t care. After all, they were just watching the battle from the sidelines, so they were not breaking the law. He didn’t expect Morgans to be so bold and dare to talk about World Government.
“So you already knew about Jonathan Vice Admiral!”
Atlas looked at Jonathan, who looked like he wanted to watch the fun, and said helplessly.
“Ah, I know, but Sengoku Admiral has a headache!” Jonathan gloated. He was also half a participant in this incident. Of course, he knew that there was no accurate evidence to prove Crocodile’s crime, but Marine They’ve all been arrested, how can there be any reason to let them go?

Red Line, Holy Land Mariejois, Between Powers.
“Damn it! Who gave Marine the authority to arrest Shichibukai! This is a provocation to the World government!”
A bald old man wearing a white monk’s robe, wearing glasses and holding a long knife in his arms roared with an angry look on his face. What made the old man angry was not the capture of Crocodile itself, but the role Marine played in it, which had the implicit intention of confronting the World government. The five of them had always agreed to control and restrict Marine.
“Hey! Saint Nazarov! Calm down, now is not the time to hold Marine accountable!” Saint Lacruz, a bald old man in a black suit with a birthmark on his face, objected.
“Our current issue is to discuss the disposal of Crocodile and… the survival of the Shichibukai system!” Another blond Five Elders in a red suit agreed.
“Impossible! The Shichibukai system cannot be abolished now! You should know very well…” Saint Nazarov, who was wearing a robe, was a little excited. He stood up from his chair and looked around at the expressions of others and said slowly, “The Shichibukai system is not only It is not only to check and balance the pirates, but also to prevent Marine from getting too strong!”
“Okay, Saint Nazarov, Saint La Cruz, Saint Abelik, the Shichibukai system cannot be abolished, so don’t mention this matter again!” Seeing the smell of gunpowder, Saint Jimenez hurriedly came out to smooth things over. .
In fact, all five of them knew in their hearts that Shichibukai could not be abolished unless… Marine was completely controlled by them, and the handover of the marshal position must be designated by them! But obviously that’s not possible at the moment.
“Okay! Now how to discuss the disposal of Crocodile.” Dexter, who was wearing a black suit, white curly hair, a scar on the left side of his face, and a black flat hat, reached a consensus on the topic of the Shichibukai system. It’s okay. Another topic was slowly brought up.
In fact, they don’t care about Crocodile’s life or death. What they care about is Marine’s attitude, which will help judge their degree of control over Marine.
“Hmph! Call Sengoku and ask him to give us an explanation!” It’s still Saint Nazarov, who seems to have a bad temper.
“Seconded!”
“Seconded!”
“Seconded!”
“Seconded!”
Soon La Cruz dialed Sengoku’s number, and the phone bug soon transformed into an image with frog eyes and a braided beard on his chin.
“Moses Moses, this is Sengoku!”
“It’s me, La Cruz Saint, and we want to ask you what Marine plans to do with Crocodile!”
“Saint La Cruz, regarding Crocodile, our Marine opinion is to lock the Impel down and kick out the Shichibukai!” Sengoku had obviously been prepared for it long ago. Originally, the whole Marine was very dissatisfied with the Shichibukai system, and it was just a good opportunity to get the Shichibukai out. Attrition, as for abolishing the Shichibukai system, Marine also knows that this is impossible.
“What did you say? Sengoku! This time you, Marine, overstepped your authority!” Saint Nazarov on the side couldn’t help but said in a deep voice to the phone bug.
“Saint Nazarov? This is Marine’s will. Justice cannot be blasphemed!” Sengoku’s voice was more determined this time, revealing an unquestionable meaning.
“Marine is just…” Saint Nazarov wanted to say something else, but was stopped by Saint Lacruz.
“Okay! Just do as you say…”
Snap!
The caller hung up.
