Listening to Sengoku actually complaining like a child, Tsuru was somewhat stunned. However, she was quickly attracted by Sengoku's words.
"Sengoku, are you saying that the 'Shinigami' has appeared again?"
Although the nickname Shinigami was very awkward, everyone had already gotten used to calling him that now.
Everyone on the great sea knew that 'Shinigami' Newgate D. Akira Stone was a member of the Whitebeard Pirates.
He was also the most famous and influential great pirate in nearly ten years besides the Four Emperors.
Although he wasn't old, he had done several earth-shattering things. The Navy had even sent out Navy Admirals, but they still couldn't catch him.
His bounty was as high as 900 million Berries, which made many pirates beyond his reach.
So now on the great sea, as long as the 'Shinigami' was mentioned 3.3, Akira would be thought of.
Sengoku nodded, and said, That's right, that kid has appeared again. You tell me, why doesn't he stay in the New World properly, and stay in the Whitebeard Pirates?
Why does he have to run to the first half of the Grand Line? Moreover, that kid is as slippery as a loach. We can't catch him no matter what.
Vice Admiral Tsuru said with deep agreement, "Mm, this Shinigami is indeed very troublesome. Back then, he had blocked the Donquixote Family by himself.
If Doflamingo's identity wasn't special, he would have been locked up in Impel Down long ago. How would he have become a Shichibukai, and still be living freely outside now?"
Although Akira had tricked Doflamingo back then, it was just as he had thought.
Although Doflamingo had been very miserable at the time, he hadn't been seriously injured. Instead, he had become a Shichibukai.
"That's why it's troublesome."
Sengoku rubbed his head, and said, If that kid wasn't a member of the Whitebeard Pirates, we might have been able to find a way to make him a Shichibukai.
However, he just had to be a member of the Whitebeard Pirates. Ah, it's really a headache.
After Vice Admiral Tsuru knew the ins and outs, she slowly said, Actually, I don't think it's that troublesome.
Didn't you notice that that kid has been escaping all these times? He's not like before at all, where he would kill them all if he caught the chance.
Sengoku was stunned when he heard this. Then, he reacted, and said, "Hey, now that you mention it, that's really the case. Why is that? That's not like what he did before."
Vice Admiral Tsuru said, "There's only one reason, and that's the Amazon Lily Pirates. If I didn't guess wrong, he should be concerned about the Amazon Lily Pirates. That's why he didn't fight us head-on. It seems that his relationship with the Amazon Lily Pirates is extraordinary."
Sengoku's eyes lit up, and said, Are you saying that he's doing it for the Amazon Lily Pirates? But that's really strange. The Amazon Lily Pirates are made up of the people of Amazon Lily.
That's an ancient island that's completely made up of women. They're very opposed to men. How could they have such a good relationship with that kid?
"Who knows? Perhaps that kid has become a son-in-law of Amazon Lily." Vice Admiral Tsuru actually started joking as well.
Sengoku asked, "Then what do you mean?"
Vice Admiral Tsuru said, Actually, if you think about it carefully, Amazon Lily and us don't have much of a grudge in the first place.
Why should we make things like this with the Amazon Lily Pirates? I think the people of the Amazon Lily Pirates aren't idiots either.
They shouldn't really want to fight us Navy to the death, right? Unless they're really crazy.
Sengoku was known as the Wise General. After Vice Admiral Tsuru said this, he immediately guessed her meaning, and said, "Are you saying, recruit the Amazon Lily Pirates?"
Vice Admiral Tsuru nodded, and said, It's just one Amazon Lily Pirates. They can't cause any big waves. We can even recruit someone like Doflamingo.
What's more, the harm that the Amazon Lily Pirates pose is far less than the Donquixote Family. There's absolutely no problem with recruiting them.
Sengoku said, "But what should we do about that 'Shinigami'?"
"There's no need to pay attention to him at all. Just keep an eye on him. He will separate from the Amazon Lily Pirates sooner or later. When they separate, perhaps we'll be able to find an opportunity to take action against him."
Vice Admiral Tsuru first said her opinion. However, she quickly said with some uncertainty, However, I have to say that his strength is becoming stronger and stronger.
If we want to catch him, it's best not to take action without absolute certainty. As long as we take action, it must be a thunderous strike, so that he has no chance to turn the tables.
Sengoku frowned, and said, I've also considered this point. However, that kid is strong, and has many abilities to escape. Back then, even Sakazuki and the others couldn't catch him.
It's probably not that easy to catch him now. After all, it's impossible for us to send three Navy Admirals to catch him together, right?
Vice Admiral Tsuru said very calmly, "That's why we have to wait for an opportunity."
"Wait for an opportunity?"
Sengoku's face was speechless. He said, "Wait for what opportunity? If there was really a good opportunity, we would have caught him long ago. It's useless to say these things now."
Vice Admiral Tsuru said calmly, There wasn't a good opportunity before, but that doesn't mean that there isn't a good opportunity now, Sengoku.
You've been a Fleet Admiral for so many years. You haven't lost your composure even when facing the Four Emperors.
Why do you become so easily irritable when you encounter this 'Shinigami'? Sengoku argued, Where am I irritable? I'm just anxious, right?
Always watching that kid walking around in front of you, and still not being able to do anything about him. How could I not be anxious? Besides, hmm? Wait.
As he was speaking, Sengoku suddenly stopped. He looked at Vice Admiral Tsuru, whose face was calm, with a face full of surprise, and asked, What did you just say?
You said that it doesn't mean that there isn't a good opportunity now. What does this sentence mean? Do you have a way?
Vice Admiral Tsuru said, "I've already thought of a way. However, whether or not it can succeed will depend on the timing, the location, and the people."
Seeing Vice Admiral Tsuru speaking in riddles, Sengoku said with some impatience, "Tsuru, speak more clearly."
Vice Admiral Tsuru said, Although I've always known how powerful that 'Shinigami' kid was, I hadn't seen it with my own eyes after all.
However, during that time two years ago, I personally witnessed his abilities. It was also from that moment that I deeply realized that he was an opponent who was several times more difficult to deal with than Doflamingo.
There's no doubt that he will grow to the level of the Four Emperors in the future. He will definitely become our Navy's number one enemy in the future.
So I've always been studying his information. I've carefully studied all of the information after he appeared. In the end, I found a way to deal with him.
Hearing that Vice Admiral Tsuru really had a way to deal with Akira, Sengoku immediately revealed a look of joy. He and Vice Admiral Tsuru had been friends for decades.
They were so familiar with each other 023 that they couldn't be more familiar. He naturally knew that Vice Admiral Tsuru wasn't the kind of person who would say things without a purpose.
Since she had said that she had a way, then she definitely had a way. Moreover, the success rate of this method was definitely not low.
"What way? Tell me quickly."
Vice Admiral Tsuru glanced at Sengoku lightly, and said, "I think it's better to leave this matter to me to handle."
Sengoku, whose face was full of anticipation, immediately revealed a look of astonishment. He said anxiously, "Hey, no, Tsuru, you have to tell me the way, so that I can cooperate with you, right? If your way is really feasible, it's not impossible to leave it to you to handle. So."
"There's no room for discussion. The fewer people who know about this matter, the better."
Vice Admiral Tsuru didn't give Sengoku any face at all. She directly said bluntly, "You just have to answer now. Do you agree, or disagree? Don't say anything else."
"You."
Sengoku stood up angrily, and pointed at Vice Admiral Tsuru. However, he couldn't say a word, because he really couldn't find anything that he could use to threaten Vice Admiral Tsuru. So even though his heart was itching with anxiety, he could only agree helplessly.
"Alright, alright, whatever you want. As long as you can catch that kid for me."
After getting Sengoku's agreement, Vice Admiral Tsuru revealed a faint smile for the first time.
"As long as you agree to my request, I have a 70% certainty that I can catch him."
Sengoku said, "Alright, we've been friends for so many years. Who can I trust if I don't trust you? Tell me, what requirements do you have?"
Vice Admiral Tsuru said, "I need one person's cooperation, Kuzan. I need his ability."
"Kuzan?"
Sengoku thought for a moment. Then, he answered, "Alright, I'll talk to Kuzan. I'll have him discuss it with you directly then."
Although it was a bit unreasonable to have someone like Admiral Aokiji be used by Vice Admiral Tsuru, Sengoku could only agree since Vice Admiral Tsuru had made a request.
After all, he still had to rely on Vice Admiral Tsuru to catch Akira.
However, he was also somewhat glad that the person whom Vice Admiral Tsuru wanted was Aokiji.
If it had been Akainu or Kizaru whom she had requested, he would have really had to put in some effort, because Aokiji had a gentle personality, was relatively easy to talk to, and respected his elders.
He wouldn't disobey her orders just because Vice Admiral Tsuru's rank was lower than his.
