70: Chapter 69: Contact from Navy Admiral Sengoku, invitation from the Seven Warlords of the Sea?The highest power center of the world government, [Holy Land] Mary Geoise, where the Five Elder Stars are located - Pangu City.
One of the Five Elder Stars, Shepard Ten Peter Saint, asked the other Five Elder Stars with a gloomy face:
"Now, Crocodile, one of the original Seven Warlords of the Sea, has fallen off.The balance of the world cannot be disrupted.What are your opinions?"
One of the Five Elder Stars, Jacalusia Satan, said helplessly:
"I never thought that loser Crocodile would be crushed, and this happened live in front of the whole world."
One of the Five Elder Stars, Toruman Vokiri, said calmly:
"It's okay, it's just a Crocodile falling off, it won't have much of an impact.The position of the Seven Warlords of the Sea has to be filled, and don't we have a ready-made Straw Hat Adventure Group right now?"
One of the Five Elder Stars, Esenbaron V.Kajuro, examined the information of the Straw Hat Adventurers, shook the sword in his hand, and said:
"It's that bastard Garp's family again.Is it feasible to recruit them?"
Max Maz, one of the Five Elder Stars, stroked his long beard and said affirmatively:
"Anyway, right now, the captain of the Straw Hat Adventurers, this brat named Monkey D.Luffy, is the most suitable person to be recruited into the Seven Warlords of the Sea to balance the world.Let's notify the navy first to invite him."
"Okay."
The other four Five Elders had no objection.

Marine Headquarters, Marineford.
Admiral Sengoku sat at the main seat, with the Seven Warlords of the Sea sitting on both sides.
[Hawkeye]Doracle Mihawk!
[Tianyasha]Donquixote Doflamingo!
[Moonlight]Moria!
[Tyrant]Bartholomew Bear!
"Hehehe, in my opinion, no one will come if we wait any longer, so let's start the meeting!" Doflamingo didn't give Sengoku any face at all.
"It's so deserted, I almost thought I came to the wrong place." [Hawkeye] raised his eyebrows.
"Hehehe, let's start quickly!Zhan Guo, I'm getting tired of waiting." Moria smiled sinisterly.
The bear remained silent.
Zhan Guo spread his hands and said:
"I have gathered you all today to discuss the replacement of King Crocodile as one of the Shichibukai.The World Government has decreed that the Shichibukai position cannot be left vacant easily."
"Hehehe, wasn't this all decided by you?Our opinions don't count." Doflamingo said disdainfully.
Zhan Guo said in a deep voice:
"Our navy intends to nominate the captain of the Straw Hat Adventurers: Monkey D.Luffy as the new Shichibukai."
Doflamingo frowned, not knowing what he was thinking.
Moriah reacted strongly: "What a joke!How could we possibly accept a little brat being on equal footing with us!"
Hawkeye warned: "Crocodile doesn't even have the ability to resist the brat you mentioned."
"The resolution to nominate him as one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea has been passed by the Navy, and Luffy's grandfather Garp has not objected."
Zhan Guo declared.
"Hehehe, he's actually a third-generation rich guy.Now that the decision has been made, there's no need for us to stay." Doflamingo turned and left.
Seeing this, several other Seven Warlords of the Sea also left their seats.

Early that morning, the Golden Merry was sailing on the sea.
Luffy's Den Den Mushi suddenly received a call.
"Moshimoshi, I'm Admiral Sengoku." A strong voice came from the Den Den Mushi.
"Marine Admiral!" Nami exclaimed.
Luffy made a silencing gesture to his companions and continued:
"Admiral Sengoku, what may I do for you?"
"On behalf of the Navy, I now invite you to become the new Shichibukai!"
"Really?What's the reason?" Luffy didn't buy it.
"Don't you, the Straw Hat Adventurers, call yourselves partners in justice?Become the Seven Warlords of the Sea and plunder the pirates as you please!You can also handle matters that are beyond the reach of the Navy!Even your grandfather Garp wouldn't object!"
Luffy pondered for a moment and continued:
"That's not enough, Marshal Sengoku!We don't need the privilege of being allowed to plunder by the Shichibukai!"
Zhan Guo was a little surprised:
"You killed Crocodile, one of the former Seven Warlords of the Sea, and preached justice.Isn't this what you need?"
Luffy replied:
"Marshal Zhan Guo, you still don't realize what kind of organization we are, and how much benefit we can bring to you!"
Zhan Guo was a little angry:
"What is your purpose?Monkey D.Luffy!"
Luffy did not directly answer Sengoku, but just said:
"Marshal Sengoku, I can accept that you treat the Straw Hat Adventurers as white gloves, but we must also have corresponding privileges!"
Zhan Guo suddenly felt dry in the mouth:
"What else do you want?"
"First, the Straw Hat Adventure Group can help the Navy eliminate the most vicious pirates, but the Navy needs to provide a certain deposit in advance!
Second, the Straw Hat Adventurers will need a pass to enter Impel Downs in the future.The number of people entering will not exceed ten!
Navy Marshal Zhan Guo suddenly became angry:
"I can agree to your first request, but not the second!Push City is too important to allow outsiders to enter!"
Luffy smiled contemptuously and said:
"Marshal Sengoku, don't be so quick to refuse.When we enter Impel Down, we can enter with the admiral-level combat power.
Isn't it just right for Grandpa Garp?Given his position, he would never allow us to cause trouble in Impel Down.
At the same time, in exchange, we will unconditionally help Impel Down to suppress a pirate riot.As far as I know, Impel Down is not impenetrable, right?
Secondly, we can help the navy contain any of the Four Emperors [Kaido] or [Big Mom]!"
Zhan Guo roared:
"Suppressing the Impel Down riot?And even pinning down a Yonko?Who do you think you are?You can even do this?You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want, little devil!"
"Of course I know it seems unrealistic to you now, but you will soon begin to realize that this is not empty talk!Until you agree to these two conditions, there is no further discussion!"
Luffy said this in a decisive tone and hung up the phone, not caring how angry the other end was.
"Old bastard Garp!Listen to what your grandson said!"
"Hahahahaha, calm down!This is not a big deal!"
Garp was pouring senbei into his mouth, but was snatched away by Sengoku.
"My senbei!"
"Gone!"
Two old naughty boys.
…
On the Golden Merry, the companions looked at Luffy with complicated expressions.Did he just reject the invitation of the Navy Admiral?
"Hoo, hoo, let's continue to the next stop.Don't worry about it!We can talk about it later!"
Luffy quickly adjusted his attitude, and no one said much.Adventure and happiness are the most important things!
