Chapter 37: Offensive And Defensive Momentum Changes
"What does Borsalino think about this matter?" Tsuru asked calmly after brainstorming for a while.
"He feels that Saint Lakeman has achieved his goal and has completed his inspection and evaluation over the past twenty days," Sengoku repeated Kizaru's thoughts and nodded slowly.
"I agree with his judgment."
"So the inspection and assessment are complete, and that's why there's no more contact?"
Tsuru's expression became serious. "It's really possible. The purpose of Saint Lakeman might not be to establish contact with Borsalino; it could simply be an inspection and evaluation."
"In the Marines, there is more than one Admiral candidate. There are too many target candidates for the World Government, and Borsalino is not necessarily the only one," Sengoku added.
"We were careless, or perhaps our reaction was too drastic," Tsuru muttered. "The world government may not want to openly woo us. They need us to suppress the increasing number of pirates, so they must be cautious about our presence."
"That's what I think too," Sengoku nodded slowly.
"Let Borsalino escort Saint Lakeman back," Tsuru suggested, showing a mysterious smile. "The World Government is testing us, and we can also take the opportunity to test them."
"Good idea!" Sengoku's eyes lit up, and his face showed joy.
He made a quick decision and immediately called Kizaru using a phone bug.
