Chapter 207 The Sea That Never Calms
"Ms. Jianhao, if you have any conditions, please let me know first. I..."
Seeing that the person opposite seemed to want to chat with her, Zhou Ling was not happy.
"So it's not the Five Elders? Then why are you wasting your time? Just let the Five Elders come, otherwise forget it."
After hearing what Zhou Ling said, the man in a suit next to him began to sweat a lot, and it was unclear whether it was because of fear or the heat.
"... "
The person on the other side obviously did not expect Zhou Ling to be so direct and was silent for a moment.
"Ms. Jian Hao, please wait a moment. I will report to my superiors immediately."
Then the Den Den Mushi was hung up.
Zhou Ling was thinking about something, but she was not slow to speak, "You heard what I said just now. This Den Den Mushi belongs to me. It's none of your business now. Get out of here."
"Yes Yes Yes."
The man in the suit wiped the sweat off his head and left without looking back.
But his mind was still thinking about the few words he had just heard.
Miss Swordsman?!
Could it be the one who attacked the holy land many years ago...
Wasn’t that person captured and taken to Impel Down after the Flame Demon incident?
How come he's here? And his appearance seems different from the one on the wanted poster!
He seems to have heard some incredible information. Will he be silenced?
...
Holy Land Marie Gioia.
The Office of the Five Elders.
After receiving the report from the intelligence personnel below, the five people gathered together again.
"Look! Look! That woman is getting too aggressive!" Fat Saint Vochuli tapped the cane in his hand twice.
"Nasu Shoulangsheng, you can handle this matter." He said to the bald man holding a long sword in his arms.
"The purpose of making Kengo Myo a Shichibukai was to prevent her from leaning towards the pirates."
Peter Sheng stroked his chin and spoke slowly.
"Whitebeard, Charlotte Linlin and others have established a strong pirate group in the second half of the Grand Line."
"The Navy's control over the second half of the Grand Line is almost non-existent now."
"A few years ago, due to the death of Gol D. Roger, the number of pirates in the four seas and the first half of the war increased dramatically."
"The navy is already overwhelmed, the Seven Warlords of the Sea are necessary to distract the pirates."
"Give the navy some time to develop." Saint Maz stroked his long white beard.
"... "
"The swordsman Miao Neng has stayed in Windmill Village for seven years. Is she planning something there?"
"Just ask clearly, then attack him." Nasujuro Sheng raised the knife in his arms.
...
Zhou Ling sat on the chair, looking at the fishing rod boredly.
"Blue! Blue!"
The Den Den Mushi that was placed aside started chirping at this moment.
"Hey."
"Jian Hao Miao, what do you want?" The other party's tone was very firm, giving people a feeling that it could not be refuted.
As soon as Zhou Ling heard it, she knew the real boss had arrived.
"... "
She was silent for a moment, she didn't know how to address the person opposite her.
"Five Elder Stars, you shouldn't ask me what I want? Instead, look at what you want?"
"Dong dong!"
Nasujuro Seiji didn't respond to Zhou Ling's words. He glanced at Wokuri Seiji who tapped his cane twice, and then looked at Den Den Mushi again.
"If you become a Shichibukai, we can give up the assassination of Roger's wife and children."
“…To be honest, this can’t threaten me.” Zhou Ling felt that he didn’t owe Roger anything.
She glanced at Ace, who was being beaten up by his clone in the open space, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but curl up.
She would only take care of Luju and Ace when her ability allowed and she was willing to do so.
If she is still like when she first entered the reincarnation platform, not knowing how to cut with a knife, do you think she will still be willing to help Ace?
Absolutely not. Zhou Ling thought a lot at once. Why did the Five Elders insist that she become one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and not others?
What's so special about her?
Attack the Holy Dragon Holy Land?
Attack the Navy Headquarters?
Raising Shanks for five years?
still…
After being promoted to god level, although his mental strength has also increased, Zhou Ling does not want to waste his energy on these things.
she asked pointedly.
"Don't waste your time. I promise to become a Shichibukai."
"But correspondingly, in addition to not assassinating Roger's wife and children, I also need to know the reason why I was chosen as a Shichibukai."
Nasujuro Sei looked at the other four people.
They didn't expect Zhou Ling to be so direct, and they thought this woman would go too far and make more demands.
"In that case, can you tell us what you were doing during your five years at O'Hara?"
"Also, in Windmill Village..."
As soon as Zhou Ling heard the Five Elders mention O'Hara, she finally understood the ultimate goal of the Five Elders.
"Heh, I'm not here to answer your questions today. You haven't told me why you chose me to be one of the Shichibukai yet."
"Or... you just want to have one less enemy?"
"Dong dong!"
Saint Wakuli tapped his cane twice and took the Den Den Mushi from Saint Nasujuro.
"Swordsman Myo, we chose you as a Shichibukai just to have one less enemy, okay? Tell me, why did you stay in O'Hara for five years?"
Zhou Ling was very happy when she saw the Den Den Mushi that seemed to be popping its eyes out. She liked to see the other party being angry but unable to hit her.
Then she regained her composure, "Of course it's to raise that little brat. Is there...something good there that I don't know about?"
She recalled meeting a grown-up Shanks a few years ago.
She thought of the blank history and the hundred years, but she thought it was better not to mention it, otherwise the Five Elders would shift their attention here again, and all the efforts of the past few years would be in vain.
At least we have to wait until Ace and Luffy grow up.
"Oh, by the way, are there any benefits for becoming a Shichibukai? Like getting a few devil fruits or something?"
Zhou Ling felt that he should be able to squeeze something out of the Five Elder Stars, after all, it would be great if they could just give it away.
The Five Elders in the office of the Holy Land Mary Joa looked at each other and nodded.
"Huh! Devil Fruit? You need that thing too? Wait until the relevant personnel are over, then you can talk to them."
"Click!"
...
Zhou Ling also expected that the other party would hang up the phone without any warning after speaking.
She didn't feel anything about becoming one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. She was just going to be there anyway and it was just another title.
But it would be good if Ace could gain some time to develop. She is really annoyed by the CP who harasses her every few days anyway.
She no longer cares about the possibility of her identity being exposed.
Strength is one thing, and the other is that as long as she has survived for ten years, she can leave at any time.
"Zhou! Time for lunch!"
Lu Jiu's shouting was heard in the distance.
Before I knew it, it was lunch time again.
Zhou Ling shook his head, put away all the fishing tools, and looked at Ace who was getting up from the ground.
She sighed in her heart, he was worthy of being Roger's son. After being tortured by his clone for a whole morning, he was still able to get up.
She had to start thinking about stepping up her efforts.
