One Piece – Thundergod Marine-Chapter 46 Win Over

The Chief Imperial Guard of the palace, the Commander-in-Chief guarding the palace and guarding the Queen, what status is that?!

Uh… if you really want to talk about status, it’s not as good as being a Third-Tier Noble.

But the person who can hold this position is definitely the King’s most trusted person!

Your status can be higher than him, but you are not higher than King… Then he is truly under one and above all the people in the country!

Jade General was the highest fighting force around the Queen and he was also loyal to the Queen and it was because of his powers and loyalty that he was the Chief Imperial Guard of the palace and that is also the main reason why General Fred decided to ambush him.

As long as General Jade exists for one day, his plan to force himself on the throne will not come true!

Naturally, he can also enter the palace under the pressure of a large army and forcefully change the dynasty by violent means. But Fred is noble, so he doesn’t want to use the bloody means that he uses to clean up dissidents like those pirates.

After getting rid of the Jade General, the first thing he did was to change the guard and put his confidant in the palace, and it was for this reason.

He had thought that the birthday banquet was just around the corner and there would be no change in the position of Chief Imperial Guard in the palace, but Fred did not expect that Queen Rosa would give this position to Rowen at such a critical time!

This is really such bullshit!

Only the people of the Allied Kingdoms quit being Allied Kingdom Members to join Marine, and those who did not quit Marine cannot join the forces of any Allied Kingdoms!

This is an irreversible job exchange!

Those who quit Marine and join other forces can no longer be trusted by Marine!

Rowen, as the user of Rumble-Rumble Fruit which is known as the strongest Logia Devil Fruit, has a bright future! Fred did not expect that the Marines would push Rowen to the position of Chief Imperial Guard in the palace. In this way, Rowen would not be able to return to Marine for life!

At first, he thought that Marines were shameless as they didn’t admit that Rowen was a Marine. Now he discovered that this is what shamelessness is, this is really despicable!

…

After returning to his senses, General Fred found that the garden was quiet and the Nobles were silent. Rowen changed from being a Marine Soldier to the Chief Imperial Guard. Rosa gave him the right to punch first and ask questions later. If they were also tossed out like Andrew and get humiliated then what can they do?

Would they really be willing to go to war with Huadu West Island (Flower Capital)?!

What an international joke!

They will continue to support Fred, after all, it is a well-drawn pie. But before the day Queen announced her abdication, these Nobles didn’t want to provoke Rowen, who was obviously not some ordinary person.

They used Fred’s name to be flabbergasted and express their stance, while the Queen ordered Rowen to handle the troublemakers as he saw fit!

The prosperity of Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) gave them a lofty position in the Grand Line. At the same time, it also made Rowen, the Chief Imperial Guard of the palace, have a status and position that is higher than most of the Nobles present!

The Nobles left and Garp and Trane also left. Rowen is now the Chief Imperial Guard of the palace, and there is no reason for him to go back to the Marine station with them. Although the two are equally confused, they are not worried about Rowen joining the Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) camp.

After all, except for them… few people know that Rowen is a “Temporary Worker”.

Rowen, who is not even an official Marine, became the Chief Imperial Guard of Huadu West Island (Flower Capital). What’s wrong with that?

There Is nothing wrong!

The only people left in the garden are General Fred and Rowen.

Sweeping around, Rowen was sitting in a chair, pouring a snack into his mouth leisurely. Seeing Fred looking towards him, Rowen smiled and said, “General Fred, what are you thinking about so deeply, are you thinking about the ways you can get rid of me?”

Taking a deep breath, Fred’s expression condenses, and the Killing intent overflowed from his eyes.

“What if I say yes?”

“Well…it will be more troublesome…”

Fred thought Rowen was saying he would be in trouble and suddenly sneered with disdain. But Rowen’s next sentence made the corners of his mouth twitch and he didn’t know how to answer.

Because Rowen said: “As an Ability user, I naturally have my own weaknesses. But lightning can destroy everything that is not good for me with high temperatures, such as the insulating rubber that restrains lightning. If I can’t destroy things such as Seastone which is the natural enemy of an Ability User like me, I can also rely on my speed to avoid it… So if you want to kill me, you will have to fast and learn Armament Haki in addition to gaining an absolute advantage in hard power… Oh, right, does General Fred know about Armament Haki?”

Haki users are basically invisible in the First Half of the Grand Line, and many people regard it as a legend. For example, in East Blue, Devil Fruit Ability users are also a legend. But to ask Fred if he knows Haki, this is a little underestimating the hero of the country.

Fred’s lips twitched a few times before he said: “I know!”

“Then…can you use it?”

Fred: “…”

After taking a few deep breaths, Fred pressed the urge to beat someone in his heart, and suddenly smiled: “You are very good, Chief Imperial Guard Rowen.”

“You are also a genius, at least when it comes to treason…”

Fred: “…Stop talking about this nonsense… Chief Imperial Guard, you can’t go back to the Marines now, do you want to come over and help me?”

“Huhh?”

Rowen gave a suspicious look to Fred and asked: “If I heard you right, you are trying to win me over?”

“Yes!”

When he said this, Fred felt a lot more relaxed: “You are already tied with Huadu West Island (Flower Capital). Even if this rebellion fails, the problem of my Aunt not having any children will not be resolved. The future King would still be me, you will also come under my command.”

“In that case, why not cooperate with me? Marine’s purpose is to protect Aunt Rosa, right? Who is the ruler of Huadu West Island (Flower Capital)? It doesn’t matter to you at all, does it?”

Seeing Fred’s handsome face full of confidence, Rowen was silent.

Speaking of Queen’s childlessness, Rowen was also depressed. He has already made many plans about this situation but the Queen does not have any children, and his only relative is the big nephew who is rebelling against her.

In the One Piece World of this semi-feudal society, royal blood inherits the throne, which is the unshakable foundation!

As for Marine’s true purpose, Rowen was also uncertain but he didn’t care.

Whether it is Queen’s life or Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) harmony, the most important thing is the old asshole’s thoughts and command, he only needs to follow the order.

But……

This is also an opportunity!

Rowen dropped the snack he took a bite into, filled the teapot with water, and wiped off the water stains. A faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: “There would be a large price to pay to get me…

“How about the intelligence of the Baroque work agency?”

Fred’s handsome face also evoked a smile, and he and Rowen stared at each other.

After a while, Rowen retracted his gaze and continued to eat the cakes: “General Fred is quite ruthless! Presumably, the traces of your contact with them have been completely wiped out by you? The rest of the insiders should have been killed too…”

Fred smiled freely at this.

“It has been four full months, I do not plan to just sit and wait for death.”

“If you can support my ascendance to the throne then the intelligence of the Baroque work agency will be given to you! Whether this credit is for Marine or you, it would be all up to Mr. Rowen! Besides, once I inherit the throne, the position of Chief Imperial Guard will be unbreakable, even the position if a General can be considered.”

The General of Huadu West Island (Flower Capital) and the Intelligence of the Baroque work agency, in order to win Rowen, Fred is going all out.

The reason is the same as he thinks. From Marine to Chief Imperial Guard, Rowen has been tied to Huadu West Island (Flower Capital), and there is no possibility of him going back. Adding Rowen being a Rumble-Rumble Fruit Ability user, he is also a powerful force worthy of winning over to his side! 𝙛𝐫e𝚎wℯ𝗯𝒏𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄o𝚖

As for whether Rowen will be against him in the future… People who are not of royal blood would not be able to do anything in presence of him as they are not playing at the same stage.

If Rowen wants to want to come upon his stage then the difficulty is similar to him fighting and winning against all three Admirals at the same time with his current strength!

“Really… This is really a high price!”

Rowen was surprised for only a second and slightly smiled while exclaiming.

“Mr. Rowen deserves this gift!”

Fred cocked his mouth while the expression on his face remained unchanged.

Both of them had a faint smile on their faces, like two sly foxes.

One has to say, this Fred has a big appetite for him to want Rowen who is a Lightning Logia Devil Fruit User. Fred has brains, strength, scheming, and determination. Cooperating with such a hero, as long as you don’t make mistakes, the advantages will outweigh the disadvantages!

But……

“Not enough!”

The expression on Rowen’s face suddenly sank, and he whispered: “I have a question that has not been answered, so I hope General Fred can tell the truth.”

“You want to ask… why Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars) has acquiesced to the Marine interfering in the internal affairs of Huadu West Island (Flower Capital), but still pushes you to the front side?”

Even though his height and strength soared because of learning Rokushiki, standing in front of Rowen with heavy black armor, Fred is still strong and burly and he looks bigger and broader than him. Especially the strange sheen that flashed through his eyes made Rowen unable to stop his heart from sinking.

But he still nodded and said without fear: “Yes!”

Although there is no thinking as a choice for this mission since even Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars) has acquiesced to it then why is Garp still fearful? In the Marine camp, Gorōsei (Five Elder Stars)’s attitude is everything! Garp could rush into the palace and kill Fred directly, and there would be no need for him to take such trouble. As long as Fred dies…

Allied Kingdom Member League?

That is a joke in front of the Gorōsei!

Therefore, Rowen must figure out the real reason!
