Capítulo 34: Wheel of Fate
[Holy Land Marijeois, Room of Authority]
On top of redline at the center of the world 5 elders are discussing about various problems as usual. However the strange thing is the contents of this conversation shouldn't exist.
A bald elder with glasses gazed outside the window deeply and started the conversation.
'' Red Haired Shanks... Why is he constantly fighting and acquiring territories? Doesn't he know his actions damage the authority of world government? Normally, he isn't such a rash person...'' (reminder: Abel read about Shank's rise in chp 23 from local newspaper. Shanks acquiring his first territory, Abel read the news in Whiskey Peak)
A blonde haired elder sipped his drink and answered from his seat softly.
'' This should be about the crisis with Frauce Kingdom(Abel went there with Alvida's crew in ch.3 and gained his spatial ring. Abel read about them in local newspaper in ch 23) in East Blue. I hope they are wise... We don't want a war to break out in the most peaceful sea, after all.''
Another elder sighed as he took over the conversation.
'' We still need to be prepared. East Blue is a strange place. Shanks, Dragon, Garp... many strong people has connections to it. We can't rashly send an admiral there or there might be a global incidence. We created the warlord system earlier to pressure Red Haired, but... To think that Hawkeye would refuse the position of all people.''
Elder with the sword frowned as he continued.
'' He realized that we are trying to pressure Red Haired using his prestige. He is a prideful person... Don't give his spot to anyone else. I think he won't refuse after this crisis is over.''
A bald elder with huge white mustaches changed the subject.
'' Forget about the warlord candidates for now. As long as the operation at Alabasta and Water 7 succeeds we will have the advantage even if Shanks and Dragon rampages.''
'' There should be no problem with that, Cipher Pole is already working on it.''
[Enies Lobby, Chief's Room]
Spandam cursed his luck. ' I just got promoted to this position! Why is this happening to me now!?' Spandam started shouting at the den den mushi with a red face.
'' Are you saying that the operation that 5 elders specially ordered in water 7 has failed!? What has happened?''
Lucci's cold voice answered him calmly. '' We interrogated İceburg for a long time. He didn't wish to reveal anything and even committed suicide. But we managed to find some information. Tom's other disciple Cutty Flam is still alive with the nickname of Franky. Unfortunately after the news of İceberg's death spread he left the city of Water 7.''
Spandam's face turned red as he screamed '' Aren't you supposed to be the greatest intelligence organisaton? Find him!''
'' Someone is helping him cover his tracks... identity is unclear.''
'' I don't care! I want results.''
Spandam cut the connection furiously. ' I hope the operation in Alabasta will be succesful. There shouldn't be any problems. That person is sent for the mission after all...'
[Marineford]
Vice admiral Dalmatian had a frown on his face as he spoke.
'' You all should know about the Ghost of East Blue. He became famous as he defeated famous pirates and is regarded as a hero by common folk. He introduced himself as a marine undercover. But you all know that person doesn't actually exist. Marine can neither deny or accept his existence. İf we deny it, it is a slap to our own face for letting an imposter deal with something we can't. We can't also accept him as a marine as well.''
A marine in the room nodded as he asked in confusion.
'' İt shouldn't matter anymore, right? Hasn't he disappeared for nearly 3 weeks?''
Dalmatian sighed as he took a sip from his tea.
'' That was the case... until he appeared in east blue again yesterday! His actions are even stranger than it used to be. His existence and influence can no longer be tolerated anymore. You should go and deal with it.''
The marine soldier frowned. '' I think this Ghost and the previous one is a bit different.''
'' İt doesn't matter. I don't want to hear about this Ghost in East Blue anymore!''
İn the past, people thought fate was similar to a wheel that keeps spinning. İt spun in various ways, bestowing fortune and misfortune to people. There has been 25 days since a person arrived in this world with a cheat that would enable him to reach the peak of this world sooner or later. All he needed to do was follow the pre-existing fate of this world and get the benefits. But this person was rather abnormal. He was so prideful and free-spirited that he refused to acknowledge the fate of this world, breaking the wheel to create a fate that belongs to him. But, even if it is damaged, the wheel of fate never stops spinning as it keeps bestowing fortune and misfortune. As for what this person who broke the wheel casually is doing right now...
Abel finally stepped on to the shores of Alabasta and took a deep breath with a happy smile on his face. ' Ah... I can feel it. There will be a good reward here!'
