In less than half a day, the incident in Push City had spread throughout the entire ocean.

All parties, common people and even some powerful people who have been hiding are discussing this turmoil that is almost shaking the world order.

The reason why the news spread so quickly was obviously inseparable from the instigation of some people with ulterior motives - those who had endured the suppression of the world government had finally found a breakthrough to vent.

Angry voices echoed everywhere in the streets, pubs and ports.

"What do you mean by the World Government?! They created the mess themselves and they don't care about anything?!" A crew member slammed the table angrily, his face flushed and he was very emotional.

His voice was mixed in with the noise, but it was unusually clear.

"This time we're in Impel Down! If those evil pirates get out, who will bear the consequences?! The World Government?!"

A businessman next to him was equally angry, his eyes flashing with dissatisfaction and fear of the government.

"The World Government is a bunch of parasites that suck the blood of everyone in the world! What do we need them for? They are all selfish guys who only know how to enjoy themselves. Their existence is meaningless!" More voices joined the angry chorus.

There was an uproar in the tavern, the air was filled with anxiety and uneasiness, and everyone was worried about the future of the world.

This voice is not limited to one place. Because of this incident, people all over the world have erupted with long-suppressed resentment towards the world government.

The countries, fishing villages and island residents who were exploited by the government policies finally couldn't bear it anymore and made their voices heard.

"I heard that General Jin An has always been a man of justice, but this time he was really pissed off by the Five Elders!"

An experienced old sailor said, and his words immediately attracted more people's attention.

"Jin'an? I heard that he is not only powerful, but also very responsible. He led the city to suppress the pirates who escaped from prison, but in the end he was scolded by those high-handed guys! It's really not worth it for him."

Another retired marine in ragged uniform sneered in response:

"Navy? Do you think the Navy and the World Government are the same? Impel Down and the Navy are simply being used by the World Government to clean up their mess! I don't understand how those navy members who truly uphold justice can tolerate this."

"Yes, a strong man like Jin An ended up being a tool of the World Government! I heard that his relationship with the Five Elders is very tense. Sooner or later, he will have to turn against those old guys!"

"Who says they aren't? The Five Elders are the root of this world's trouble. Every time something goes wrong, they always ask the Navy to clean up the mess, while they hide in Marijoa and make decisions. Sooner or later, someone will get fed up with it."

"..."

There was a lot of discussion in the pub. People were either indignant or worried, but more of them were confused and uneasy about the future.

As the incident unfolded, more people began to question the rule and authority of the world government.

Some people who once had confidence in the government are now beginning to waver.

All over the world, it seemed as if an invisible storm had been set off.

And at the center of this storm, the name of General Jin'an became more and more dazzling as word of mouth spread, and seemed to have become a symbol of true justice in people's minds.

But how far can this justice go?

No one is sure.

As time went by, angry cries continued to emerge, as if the long-accumulated magma had finally broken through the constraints of the rock layers, brewing a bigger eruption.

......

at the same time.

Naval Headquarters, Marinevando.

Zhan Guo slumped exhaustedly in the marshal's chair, his hands resting feebly on the armrests, his eyes staring at the ceiling with a somewhat dazed look.

There were piles of documents on his desk, but he was in no mood to deal with them.

The chaotic situation before him made him feel powerless. “What on earth is going on in this world? Why is it becoming more and more chaotic?”

His voice was low, mixed with fatigue and confusion that he could not hide.

Jinan and his men undoubtedly completed their mission this time very well. Not only did they completely suppress the rebellion in Impel Down Castle, but they also subdued the tricky criminal Blackbeard.

Logically speaking, Jin'an should receive more recognition and support, but this is not the headache for Zhan Guo.

He knew that the real trouble came from the Five Elder Stars.

Their attitude towards Jin An once again made him see clearly the way those five old immortals do things - cold and ruthless.

"They were able to chase Jin'an out so easily and let him chase the escaped pirates... and then Topman Wachuri-sei did nothing and returned directly to Marijoa."

Zhan Guo felt bitter in his heart. The Five Elders obviously ignored the changes in the situation and the hard work of Jin An and other navy officers.

He sighed softly, his lips slightly tightened, and a hint of helplessness flashed in his eyes.

"Do the Five Elders really not care about the impact of public opinion? If they continue like this, the Navy's trust will be exhausted sooner or later."

Sengoku knew in his heart that the problem was no longer just a confrontation between pirates and the navy, but that the world's order seemed to be gradually disintegrating from within.

The incident spread too quickly, far beyond his expectations.

After that, Sengoku also keenly noticed that the atmosphere in the Navy Headquarters had become extremely depressing.

Many soldiers were dissatisfied with the World Government's decision, and the doubts in their eyes became more and more obvious.

It was as if a thin string would break at any time. If there was another opportunity, this suppressed emotion might explode out of control.

"The problems within the navy are more complicated than I thought." Zhan Guo thought secretly.

As a marshal, he could clearly feel that the gap in the hearts of his subordinates was becoming deeper and deeper.

And that gap is called "World Government".

He sighed, feeling exhausted. Then, Sengoku picked up the Den Den Mushi and dialed the number in Impel Down.

"What's the situation in Impel Down?" His voice was somewhat anxious.

Domino's voice came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi, calm and full of awe, "The damaged area has been cleaned up, but Director Magellan and Deputy Director Hannibal are still in a coma. Their conditions are stable now."

Zhan Guo gently rubbed his brows. Listening to these numbers and casualty reports, his headache became more severe.

"What about the prisoner?"

"Nearly half of the pirates were killed in battle by Admiral Jinan, the navy, and us, and the remaining third escaped with the great pirate. The rest have been accounted for and imprisoned."

Domino's report was meticulous, and there was a hint of pride in his words, but more of respect.

Hearing that Jin'an performed so well, Zhan Guo felt a little comforted, but then the tiredness came back again.

Although Jin An is strong, he alone cannot resist the undercurrent of the entire situation.

He took a deep breath and said in a slightly lowered voice: "If Impel Down City needs anything, just let us know. The Navy will do its best to help."

Domino on the other end of the Den Den Mushi responded seriously: "Received, Marshal Sengoku."

The voice was sonorous and powerful, but Zhan Guo felt that the fatigue in his heart could not be dispelled.

He put down the Den Den Mushi, leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.

Fatigue and pressure came over him like a tide, and he couldn't get rid of the feeling of oppression.

The incident in Impel Down is just the tip of the iceberg. The rift between the Navy and the World Government is gradually widening and is alarmingly deep.
