The Seas Are in Chaos!
Inside the "Horn of Justice" office, Sengoku looked at these words on the newspaper and sighed, "I didn't expect this kid to make a name for himself so quickly."
Stepping onto the world stage by leaps and bounds from Bondi Byrnndi World is the perfect start for the young Navy.
As for those who go even further, using top-tier experts as stepping stones, that is a luxury that is beyond reach.
He had already received a call from Vidal, who wanted him to return to Marineford as soon as possible, but the disciple insisted on keeping his promise to his friend Yixiao.
[Knock knock!]
"Please come in."
"Sengoku Admiral! The Roger Pirates are currently engaged in battle with the Big Mom Pirates Totto Land Cake Island!" The lieutenant Lieutenant Colonel who walked in spoke in a very urgent tone.
"And Shiki the Golden Lion's Flying Pirates are also heading towards Totto Land!"
His two sentences contained the names of the three world's top pirate forces, which immediately put Sengoku on high alert.
"What about Kaido and Whitebeard?"
"The Beasts Pirates haven't received any intelligence yet, but the Whitebeard Pirates seem to be heading towards Wano Country!"
Sengoku of Wano Country was bewildered by what had happened in the New World, wondering why everything had suddenly descended into chaos.
What are you, Whitebeard, doing in that closed-off Wano Country?
Is it simply because they've never been there before and want to see what Wano Country is like?
However, things aren't too serious on Whitebeard's side yet. As for Kaido, he thinks he's unlikely to calm down; he's the kind of bastard who's happier the more chaotic the seas are!
[Knock knock!]
Another lieutenant Lieutenant Colonel from headquarters strode in, shouting, "Admiral! G-1 Branch has called for backup! Kaido of the Beasts is attacking the fortress!"
"What?!" Sengoku couldn't sit still any longer. He stood up abruptly, startling the little lamb at his feet, who looked up at him.
[Gurgle gurgle]
"Fleet Admiral?" Sengoku picked up the Den Den Mushi receiver, and Kong from the other end said, "You should have received the report of Kaido's attack on G-1 as well, right?"
Basically, aside from the orders issued by the World Government, the two of them shared all the important intelligence about the high seas.
"I'm heading to the New World immediately!" Sengoku said emphatically.
"You're going to the New World, but not the G-1 Branch." Kong the Kong said, "The situation is much more dire than with Kaido, Roger, Big Mom, Golden Lion. Go there and see how things unfold."
"What about G-1?"
Sengoku knew very well that Kong was not going to be dispatched, because according to the rules, an Admiral must be stationed at Marineford.
The Fleet Admiral was also Admiral, so after he went to the New World, Marineford was left empty.
"I'll ask Zephyr if he's willing to help. If not, then we'll have to borrow CP0's power from the Five Elders."
Kong sighed helplessly, rubbing his forehead. This was the downside of lacking capable Admiral; there weren't enough people to handle serious incidents.
Zephyr is currently the chief instructor of the Navy Academy, which is also the principal, so strictly speaking, he is a civilian official. Therefore, getting him to take action would have to be discussed.
Thank you for your hard work.
Sengoku knew very well how difficult it was to borrow people from the Five Elders, and even if he succeeded, he would inevitably have to hear some unpleasant things.
This made him even more convinced that Garp was a complete bastard!
A mere Chinjao from the Flower Country actually managed to seal off one of their navy's top combatants!
What's going on here?
"Okay, that's settled then."
"By the way, congratulations on taking on such a good disciple. I just hope he can grow up quickly; we really need them to be able to stand on their own right now."
"I understand, and I believe Vidal won't let you or me down." After saying that, Sengoku hung up the phone first, put down the receiver, and strode out of the office.
"Get my warships ready immediately!"
"Yes!"
While the New World and Marineford were experiencing dramatic breakthroughs, Sleep Ancient Town remained calm, and Vidal even had time to climb the mountain alone.
By this time, he had already changed his clothes, but his style remained the same: a green shirt, black trousers, black leather shoes, and Justice Coat.
Coupled with his thick, slightly curly long hair and his handsome, angular face, he truly embodies the word "good-looking" to the fullest.
He's the most handsome man in the Navy!
Ever since he suddenly felt a sense of familiarity with Sleep Ancient Town, he consciously began to study the town and recall memories that had been buried in his mind for more than twenty years.
It wasn't until he chatted with the archbishop of the town church for a while that he finally Satori after hearing about the Vampire legends that had been circulating on the island for hundreds of years.
Vampire!
There's only one Vampire related to Pirate King, isn't there? The Vampire Fruit of the Red the Aloof Vampire.
I had heard Redfield mentioned before at the Special Training Camp by an instructor who specialized in explaining maritime strongmen.
He is a lone swordsman of Great Swordsman, often wandering freely on the high seas of the New World, completely disregarding which faction's territory he occupies.
Therefore, they often clash with top-tier forces such as Flying Sky, the Totto Land, the Beasts, and even the Whitebeard Pirates.
However, because of his immense strength, unless powerful bosses like Golden Lion or Whitebeard intervene, his subordinates simply cannot hold him back.
Even when big shots meet him, Redfield can leave whenever he wants. Or rather, it's inherently difficult to keep someone in a one-on-one situation at this level.
After more than a decade of this, various forces chose to ignore him, letting him do as he pleased as long as he didn't cause too much trouble.
In addition, he is not a high-profile person, so in recent years, his presence on the sea has become increasingly less noticeable.
Many people have even forgotten that such a person exists, but the Marine Headquarters will not overlook such a top-level figure.
Vidal wasn't interested in Redfield, but he was very interested in the Vampire Fruit, especially after thinking that it might be on this island.
Regardless, this is a Mythical Zoan Devil Fruit, the Zoan Bat-Bat Fruit, Vampire Form!
Moreover, in some ways, the value of this fruit far surpasses that of Marco's Phoenix, Bullet's Mahes, and the Great Buddha Form of the Sengoku period.
On what grounds?
It's because it can grant people longevity, even immortality, to a certain extent!
So he used the Woods-Woods Fruit's ability to sense the location of Devil Fruits to run around the entire island at high speed a few times.
Fortunately, the Sleep Ancient Town was really small; at his speed, he ran around it twice in no time. But strangely, he didn't sense any Devil Fruits.
This initially made him wonder if the fruit wasn't actually here, or if someone had eaten it and left, only to reappear here because the user had died?
But when he recalled that the legend of the Vampire had been circulating on the island for hundreds of years, he realized there must be an important reason behind it.
Finally, with a try-it-out mentality, he came to the entrance of the cave he had seen that day, although there was no scent of fruit inside either.
"If it's not here either, then I'll give up and leave!" Vidal thought to himself as he looked into the dark cave.
The next moment, a bright green light emanated from his body as he walked inside.
