Blake concluded:
“Mary Geoise is probably going to be a bit turbulent lately, we might have to go somewhere else to hide.”
When Blake finally rolled over and fell asleep, Ginny carefully got up, dragged her tired body, hung up the Den Den Mushi, and carefully hid it away.
The Den Den Mushi's shell was incredibly hot; several hours of continuous operation had brought the little creature to the brink of exhaustion.
After doing all this, Ginny finally collapsed onto Blake and closed her eyes.
Chapter 98 Let's make a push!
Most of the information that Blake leaked was true.
Christopher and Garin's conflict was indeed long-standing, and Fisher Tiger did indeed intend to come to Mary Geoise to liberate the slaves.
The Revolutionary Army had long known of the existence of the Knights of God. If no one had helped them distract the Knights of God, Dragon certainly wouldn't have dared to lead the Revolutionary Army to attack Mary Geoise.
There are now problems within the Celestial Dragons themselves.
In addition, there's Tiger as an outside helper, and Ginny, who is in distress.
If he can't seize such a good opportunity, he will lose the trust of most of the revolutionary army.
Therefore, even if he still had doubts, he had to follow the opinion of the majority.
The night in Mary Geoise gradually fell silent, and Blake and Ginny had already gone to sleep.
But Bello Betty, who listened to the entire live broadcast, was not sleepy at all. She contacted Dragon, the leader of the Revolutionary Army, that very night.
Soon after learning the general situation, Long decided to hold a high-level meeting.
Using the video Den Den Mushi modified by Lindbergh, the various army commanders of the Revolutionary Army began a video conference.
The smoke from the kerosene lamp swirled in the enclosed space, shrouding the dragon's figure in a mist, obscuring his expression.
Bello Beatty slammed the listening report on the table, the paper scraping against the oak surface with a harsh screech.
She pointed the video Den Den Mushi at the report's contents and patiently waited for nearly fifteen minutes before speaking:
"Have you finished watching it?"
Her fingertips tapped lightly on the table, trying to suppress her anger:
"Now we need to decide on the attack plan and the rescue plan for Ginny!"
The dragon raised a hand to interrupt, shadows dancing beneath his hood:
"The intelligence came at the perfect time, and the timing was perfect."
Everyone fell silent, with only the crackling sound of the burning wick audible.
Bello Betty slammed her hand on the table, her voice suddenly rising in pitch:
"Are you suspicious of the content being monitored?"
"Are you still doubting the information that Ginny obtained at the cost of...her dignity?"
"Calm down, Betty."
The dragon's voice remained calm and steady, revealing nothing of his thoughts:
What I doubt is the timing.
"The timing is just too good, making me suspect that this is a setup against us."
Even Ivankov, who has always been a staunch supporter of dragons, had a different opinion and countered:
"Dragon, I don't think there's anything wrong with this."
"It's normal for things inside the Celestial Dragons to leak out from within the Celestial Dragons themselves."
"Moreover, I wouldn't be surprised if people like them revealed some secret when they were feeling triumphant."
The bear stroked the Bible with its hands; inside was a photograph of Ginny standing in a wheat field.
In the photo, a youthful Ginny is all smiles.
But none of this affected his judgment. Xiong spoke without any emotion:
"I have indeed heard some things about Fishman Island, and it seems that something has happened in Fishman Street recently."
Even so, the dragon still appeared hesitant.
There's nothing that can be done; that's just how the Sweating King is.
However, his hesitation this time was indeed necessary.
After all, a direct attack on Mary Geoise would be a decisive battle.
One careless move and you lose everything.
Everyone else watched the dragon through the video Den Den Mushi, waiting for his decision.
After hesitating for a long time, the dragon finally spoke:
"Even if all the intelligence is true, we still need to assess our combat capabilities."
"The Knights of God are the strongest force of the Celestial Dragons, and the strength of each of them should not be underestimated."
"That Christopher... just how long can his private army hold off the enemy?"
"If we get involved, will they put aside their differences and unite against us?"
"Evaluate my ass!"
Bello Beatty overturned the teacup on the table, splashing red tea onto the strategic map hanging on the wall, leaving a blood-like stain.
Having heard the whole story firsthand, she was eager to rescue Ginny:
"No matter how strong that Order of the Gods is, since Christopher is confident that he can create an opportunity to fight Garin one-on-one, he can definitely hold them off!"
"Do we really know them better than Christopher does?"
"What kind of chaos will this create if the Knights are tied down, and the merman Tiger releases a large number of slaves?"
"This kind of opportunity will never come again, even if we wait another hundred years!"
The others nodded in agreement, and Morrie continued:
"I can sneak in first, install explosive devices underground, and create even greater chaos."
The crow was muttering something to itself.
He seemed to have forgotten to turn on the loudspeaker, and no one else could hear what he was saying.
Lindbergh stood on the chair and awkwardly adjusted his goggles.
"Dragon, don't hesitate, this is truly a golden opportunity."
“Ginny is not in immediate danger, but we cannot place our hopes on the humanity of the Celestial Dragons.”
"She might encounter danger at any time."
"If we don't act now, are we going to wait until Ginny becomes a corpse before we do anything?"
Upon hearing this, Xiong tightened his grip on the Bible, creating wrinkles that he quickly smoothed out.
Xiong has always been a person who can control his emotions.
He knew very well that it was not appropriate for him to speak at this time, as radical remarks might interfere with other people's judgment.
He's already starting to regret what he just said.
After a long silence, the dragon continued:
"What about the navy?"
"If Mary Geoise is attacked, given the distance to the Navy Headquarters, the Navy will arrive to provide support within two hours."
The crow finally remembered his megaphone, turned it on, and hurriedly replied:
"The Fleet Admiral needs to stay at headquarters and cannot move lightly. The only strong individuals who can be sent to provide support are two admirals and Vice Admiral Garp."
As he spoke, he glanced at the dragon's expression before continuing:
"If the leader personally leads the attack on the Red Line, I don't think the World Government would dare to send Vice Admiral Garp to provide support, would they?"
Of course I wouldn't dare. If Garp came, it's not certain who he would be supporting.
Ivankov rummaged through the table for a while, found a document, and spread it out in front of the video Den Den Mushi:
"Last week's news was that Akainu had gone to the New World and was confronting the Big Mom Pirates."
"So, Aokiji is the only one who might be supporting Mary Geoise?"
Lindberg stroked his chin and tentatively asked:
"I remember this general... he seemed to have some grievances about the Ohara incident back then?"
"It seems this really is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."
Dragon raised his head, his gaze sweeping over everyone's bloodshot eyes, and out of the corner of his eye he saw that Bello Betty's clenched hand was already bleeding.
His gaze hardened, and he said in a deep voice:
"Operation codename 'Nightingale'."
"When the fishman Tiger lands on the Red Line, we will concentrate our forces to attack Red Harbor!"
"End the Celestial Dragons' rule and rescue Ginny!"
Chapter 99 Cannon Fodder is Pulling Cannon Fodder
Although Mary Geoise is located at an altitude of 10,000 meters, the living environment here is very comfortable, and it is difficult to feel the passage of time through the climate.
March 1507 in the Haiyuan calendar.
Blake said he was going to leave Mary Geoise, but in reality, he was preparing to observe Im's battle up close. How could he possibly leave?
While Black was still enjoying his leisurely life in Mary Geoise, the revolutionary army had already begun to assemble near the Sabaody Archipelago.
They disguised themselves as pirates, merchants, travelers, and other identities, and infiltrated the Sabaody Archipelago in batches.
In Zone 13, a bar sits atop the mangrove roots of Yarchiman.
The bar door creaked open, and Xiaqi was wiping a glass with a velvet cloth.
The dragon, wearing a hood and wrapped up like a wanted criminal, slowly walked in.
The sea breeze, carrying the unique resinous scent of the Sabaody Archipelago, wafted in, but Shakky didn't even look up:
"We're closed. If you want a drink, go next door."
"The proprietress isn't even entertaining old friends anymore?"
The dragon's voice was deep and hoarse, and Xia Qi's fingers paused for a moment before she finally looked up at the doorway.
The man in the dark green cloak took off his hood, revealing a tattoo on his left cheek that gleamed dark red under the oil lamp.
"Monkey D. Dragon".
Xia Qi exhaled a smoke ring, her expression a half-smile:
"Didn't you say you wanted to dedicate your life to the revolutionary cause?"
"You still dare to come near me? Aren't you afraid I'll sell you out to the world government?"
The tone was far from friendly, suggesting that there was some underlying conflict between the two.
Dragon walked straight to the bar, the water droplets on his cloak leaving a winding trail on the floor:
"I need your help with something, and this is also helping you in the process."
"You've come to the wrong place."
Xia Qi put the cleaned glasses back on the wine rack:
"These retired old guys only know how to sell alcohol; they can't help you with anything else."
A sudden sound came from the stairs, and Rayleigh staggered out, carrying a half-empty bottle of rum. His silver hair was disheveled and sticking up, as if he had just woken up.
"It's so noisy..."
"Hey? Aren't these the children from the Revolutionary Army?"
