**Chapter 69: Sengoku and Garp Mobilize!**
At Marine Headquarters, Marineford, a unique Dog Head Battleship was docked in the vast Port, attracting the gaze of many passersby.
[Bang—]
"Wahahaha, the old man is back!"
The door to the Fleet Admiral's Office was pushed open forcefully, and Garp walked in unrestrained like a large crab, holding an opened plastic bag of Senbei in his hand.
Ever since receiving Fleet Admiral Kong's Order, he had returned directly, not waiting for Dragon and King Taklamakan to decide a winner.
Firstly, he felt there must be a very important Matter, and secondly, he had absolute confidence in his Son; having unleashed his full power, defeat was impossible.
"You..."
'Kong' glanced at the heavily damaged door, helplessly gave a Shake Head, and pretended not to see it. He couldn't remember how many times he had scolded Garp for knocking and gently pushing the door.
"You sit down first and look at the Mission content!"
Sengoku, standing nearby, was not so polite. He immediately snapped at Garp as he sat down, "Bastard, what were you running around for? Don't you know everyone was waiting for you?"
"Got it, got it~~"
Garp took a piece of Senbei and bit into it, then placed the bag beside him. He picked up the Document that had been placed on the Coffee Table long ago, scratched his ear with his other hand, his face full of perfunctory Attitude.
This Attitude caused the Tendons on Sengoku's forehead to bulge, but in the end, he could only angrily slap the Sofa and close his eyes, waiting for the other party to finish reading the Document.
Meanwhile, after reading the Document, Garp's Gaze was filled with nothing but astonishment. Ignoring the half-eaten Senbei in his mouth, he suddenly looked at Fleet Admiral Kong behind the desk.
"Roger's Treasure has been found?!"
"Isn't it all written there? It's said that CP6 found it in the New World, so the Five Elders ordered us to join forces with CP0 personnel to bring it back to Mary Geoise. And on the return trip, we have to conduct a Public Broadcast to the entire World."
Hearing Fleet Admiral Kong's reply, Garp was still incredibly surprised.
"How is that possible?"
"Possible or not, the Mission is right in front of us. Let's bring it back first," Sengoku said, standing up after opening his eyes. "The Mission requires us to be as fast as possible. We'll depart now!"
Garp raised his head to look at him, complaining, "The old man just got back, and I haven't even been sitting for five minutes. Can't you be considerate of this old man over fifty?"
"Bastard, I'm a year older than you!" Sengoku gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and glared fiercely.
"Uh..."
Garp was stunned, thinking to himself, *Eh, yeah, I am a year younger than Sengoku.* Thinking this, he felt too embarrassed to mention age again and stood up with a laugh.
"Look at you, why are you getting angry? Let's go, let's go. It's just going to the New World to get something, what's the big deal!"
Fleet Admiral Kong looked at his sloppy, foolish appearance and couldn't help but instruct him.
"Garp, be careful. It's said the amount of Treasure is very large, possibly requiring two Large Cargo Ships, and you'll have to cross half of the New World. You will definitely be attacked by many Pirates along the way. You absolutely cannot make any mistakes!"
Garp grinned and laughed, "With the old man and Sengoku leading the team, plus five Vice Admirals including Borsalino and Sakazuki, ten Headquarters Warships, and CP0 secretly assisting, this Combat Power scale is useless even if Whitebeard comes!"
To be honest, this already exceeded the level of a conventional Buster Call, completely sufficient for a Decisive Battle at Sea against any Top Tier Power.
Now, it was just being used for an Escort Mission for a Treasure, and he felt it was a bit of an overreaction.
Sengoku frowned and snorted coldly, "Roger's Treasure, there's a high possibility that Whitebeard will make a move. Also Charlotte Linlin. If things get big, Kaido, who only knows about War all day, will likely force his way in. You need to stay alert. This concerns the Reputation of our Marines and the entire World Government!"
"Indeed, thankfully Golden Lion Shiki has been dealt with. Otherwise, this Escort Mission would truly be quite risky..." Fleet Admiral Kong felt a sense of relief.
"Fleet Admiral, we're departing!" Sengoku didn't want to waste any more Time.
"Go early and return early!"
Seeing that Sengoku ignored him and walked out of the Office on his own, Garp didn't care either. He picked up the half-bag of Senbei remaining and swayed his body as he followed him out.
Inside the Office, 'Kong' rubbed the back of his head in distress, deeply feeling that there were too few usable Admirals under him.
"Sigh, when will Sakazuki and the others be able to take on major responsibilities? If this continues, this bastard will give me high blood pressure!"
"But how did the World Government find the One Piece?"
This question left him, the Fleet Admiral of the Marines, completely puzzled. Is Cipher Pol's Intelligence Gathering Ability really that terrifying?
Just as the large Fleet organized by Marine Headquarters was preparing to head to the New World Sea Area.
Over at the Holy Land Mary Geoise, in the Social Plaza within Pangea Castle.
Two great Beauties, one in white and one in black, one tall and one short, were curiously examining the Tennis Court that had just been built in front of them less than ten minutes ago.
Beside it were racks holding various Rackets, as well as black buckets filled with yellow Tennis Balls, and even Ball Pickers.
These two were naturally Rear Admiral Gion of the Marines and CP9 Member Stussy, who had been called over.
Interestingly, they arrived here shortly after each other and hadn't even gotten to know each other when a group of construction Workers rushed in and, with astonishing construction Speed, transformed the area into a standard outdoor grass Tennis Court.
Until now, with the Workers gone, only the two of them were left standing there blankly.
"What is this?"
Gion, wearing a Coat of Justice and Hotpants, took two steps forward with her long legs, curiously scanning the Court separated by a Net Bag.
"A Tennis Court."
Stussy, on the other hand, was wearing the Agent Uniform issued by CP9, a black Tight Hip Skirt paired with Black Mesh Bodystocking, looking even more Sexiness and Charm.
It's just that the Height Difference between the two was quite large, or rather, Gion was too tall...
"What is Tennis Ball?"
Gion turned her head and asked in confusion. It wasn't that she was ignorant, but Tennis Ball, this thing, was such an obscure sport in this World that it couldn't be any more obscure.
Of course, it was the same for any sport, as these things only occasionally appeared on a few relatively wealthy Islands, mainly used by the Nobility for amusement.
"You can just think of it as a plaything for active Nobles."
Stussy smiled slightly. As the most excellent CP9 Agent, although she didn't Play Tennis often, she had a basic understanding of it.
"So that's how it is. This is likely ordered by that Celestial Dragon named Saint Nerona." Gion suddenly understood, her brow furrowing.
"But the Mission I received was to follow and protect him during his Travel."
This was the Mission content that Sister Tsuru herself had relayed, so she accepted it despite not liking Celestial Dragons.
It was said that this Celestial Dragon was not an ordinary Celestial Dragon, but a high-ranking Celestial Dragon who was very likely to become one of the next Five Elders, so there was no room for refusal.
Unless she didn't want to be a Marines anymore...
"Oh right, I'm Gion, and you?"
Stussy, with her beautiful golden hair, charmingly looked at Gion and smiled, "I know you, the strongest Female Officer after Vice Admiral Tsuru. That Blade on your waist is the Famous Sword Konpira, right? I'm Stussy, please take care of me from now on~"
