Three days after the Sabaody Archipelago incident, the Little Ul did not enter the New World, but instead, guided by Nolan, headed towards her homeland.
Before heading to the New World, Cifer planned to resolve the crew's troubles first.
With Nolan's current abilities, it shouldn't be a problem.
"I will make that foolish king know what will happen to him if he abandons us!"
Nolan stood at the bow of the ship, eagerly anticipating the moment, while his gaze towards the captain grew increasingly intense.
If she hadn't been by Captain Cifer's side, she might never have been able to do this in her entire life.
"I'm really looking forward to that day!"
Robin, who was standing nearby enjoying the sea breeze, echoed her sentiment; she understood the pain of losing one's homeland.
"Will there be any good food there...?"
Bonney, a little girl, sat on the bear's shoulders, holding a storybook in her hands.
"It will definitely be a great place to travel."
The Tyrant patted her little head, a smile playing on his lips.
He and Cifer had discussed it very seriously. If he wanted to keep his promise to Vegapunk, he would wait until Cifer had taken him away.
Having witnessed the great battle in the Sabaody Archipelago, Kuma had no doubt that his opponent possessed such strength.
It's a joyous occasion that Bonney and I can become his companions.
Moreover, he will have the opportunity to apologize to Long and Ivan in the future for leaving without saying goodbye.
"Yay! Hahahaha!"
"You're still a long way off, kid!"
Enel and Lucci emerged from the cabin; the former laughed heartily, while the latter was bruised and battered.
"Seriously, they're here again..."
Chopper picked up the first-aid kit and, with his short legs, went over to help Lucci apply the medicine.
This is a routine they do almost every day: have a fight during training.
Enel strives to surpass Cifer, Lucci strives to trample Enel underfoot; both are working towards this goal.
"Speaking of which, after what we did, the Wanted Poster order should be issued soon."
Lucci suddenly blurted out something, and Chopper next to him was stunned. He started to imagine his own handsome appearance, and his mouth was almost watering.
His nickname must be General Chopper!
The Bounty might be incredibly high...
His mind was filled with images of himself heroically defeating enemies.
"Chirp~ Chirp~"
As he was lost in thought, News Coo flew overhead, its call attracting the attention of everyone on board.
"I'll do it!"
Nolan flicked his wrist, and 100 Belly floated slowly into the News Coo's purse, followed by the falling of a brand-new newspaper.
"Let me see... Captain Cifer!"
Nolan suddenly shouted excitedly, even throwing the newspaper to the ground, and jumped up to hang it around Cifer's neck.
What's wrong with Nolan?
Robin, somewhat curious, picked up the newspaper from the ground.
Let's go back to one day ago.
In a conference room at Marineford, Marineford.
Wearing sunglasses, with an incredibly high hairline that revealed his entire smooth forehead, the man stood in front of the long blackboard; he was Lieutenant Colonel Brannew, a civilian officer.
Sitting before him were officers and colonels, the backbone of the navy, draped in the Justice Coat.
"I'm sure you all already knew what we're going to discuss at this meeting."
Brannew looked at the stack of documents in his hand, pushed up his sunglasses, and then cast his gaze at the crowd.
"Two days ago, the Sabaody Archipelago incident, which can be described as one of the most heinous crimes in history, occurred."
"As you all know, on that day, two Celestial Dragons and one current Shichibukai died!"
"At the same time, two Admiral and one Admiral Candidate at the Marineford were seriously injured and on the verge of death, and nearly half of the islands in the Sabaody Archipelago were destroyed!"
Looking at the information in his hand, Brannew became increasingly agitated and slammed a Wanted Poster onto the blackboard.
"It's all because of this man! Former Shichibukai Ulquiorra Cifer!"
Following everyone's gaze, the Wanted Poster that Cifer had before becoming Shichibukai was so glaring.
"What a wolf in sheep's clothing!"
"They actually brought Admiral Kuzan and his men..."
Discussions like these gradually arose, all expressing various dissatisfactions with Cifer.
"Cough cough~"
Seeing that the atmosphere was just right, Brannew coughed twice, interrupting their conversation, and then got down to business.
"Based on the descriptions from the two Admiral, the information provided by the Navy's informants, and the World Government's investigation, we have obtained information about the entire Black Wing Pirates!"
"At the same time, the World Government has already set their Bounty and will soon announce them to the world. Next, I will inform them one by one according to the Bounty from low to high."
After selecting one by one, Brannew pulled out a Wanted Poster. Although he had seen it many times, he still couldn't help but rub his eyes to make sure he wasn't mistaken.
"Though he looks like a raccoon dog, he's actually a reindeer, and he's the 'Marshmallow-loving Pet' Tony Chopper who serves as the ship's doctor!"
"There is currently no intelligence to suggest that it poses any threat. Bounty: 100 Belly!"
A wanted poster for Chopper was posted on the blackboard; the photo showed him happily eating cotton candy.
"Jewelry South Blue Bonney, the 'Big Eater Woman' who was removed from the bounty after Ulquiorra!"
"He seems to possess the ability to age people or turn them into children. Bounty: 117 million Belly!"
Bonney's wanted poster was posted on the blackboard, and her smile was as bright as sunshine.
"Nico Robin, the 'Child of the Devil' who has been on the run for 20 years as a remnant of Ohara's forces, is being hunted by the World Government!"
"The user of the Flower-Flower Fruit, a thorn in the side of the World Government, with Bounty 128 million Belly!"
Robin's wanted poster was posted on the blackboard, and she was in a good mood as the sea breeze blew through her.
"Born in the Qing Kingdom, now a chef on Ulquiorra's ship, 'Sky Woman' Nolan!"
"It seems he obtained the Float-Float Fruit that reappeared after the death of the Golden Lion. He'll be a troublesome guy in the future. His Bounty 148 million Belly!"
Nolan's arrest warrant was posted on the blackboard, elegant and sophisticated.
"The former ace of Enies Lobby, a once-in-eight-hundred-years super genius of CP9! One of the ship's combatants, 'the One Who Defies Justice' Rob Lucci!"
"He has accomplished many incredible missions, but recently chose to betray the World Government, making him a very troublesome enemy!"
"Bounty: 217 million Belly!"
Lucci's wanted poster was posted on the blackboard. He was dressed in white, and Hadley on his shoulder was also dressed in white. Both of them exuded an air of nobility.
"The next three are all Super Great Pirate with Bounty exceeding 1 billion!"
Brannew swallowed hard, then his voice became even more excited, and everyone present began to tense up.
"Bartholomew Kuma, one of the former Shichibukai, a 'Tyrant' who committed extreme atrocities at sea!"
"A user of the Paw-Paw Fruit, who has developed it to an incredibly high level, is proficient in Two Types of Haki, Bounty 1.978 billion Belly!"
The bear's wanted poster was pasted on the blackboard, its merciless gaze highlighting its terrifying nature.
"Enel, the vice-captain of the Black Wing Pirates, Ulquiorra's right-hand man, Devil Fruit User the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, 'Thunder God'!"
"According to the intelligence provided by Admiral Borsalino, he is not only extremely powerful in terms of strength, speed, and Devil Fruit ability, but he also possesses Three Types of Haki!"
"On the Sabaody Archipelago, he instantly killed several members of the Worst Generation and fought a fierce battle with Admiral for over a thousand rounds without a clear victor!"
"He is an extremely dangerous person! His first bounty is already this terrifying; we are definitely not overestimating him! His Bounty is 3.28 billion Belly!"
He posted Enel's wanted poster on the blackboard, his smile unrestrained and arrogant.
"3...3.2 billion?!"
The officers below were all shocked. This Bounty was almost as high as that of the Sea Emperor, and he was only Ulquiorra's second-in-command!
A silence fell over the meeting room as they waited for information about the man.
"Next up is the captain of this pirate crew, the mastermind behind the Sabaody Archipelago incident, who murdered several Celestial Dragons, and was one of the former Shichibukai, 'Black Winged Great Demon' Ulquiorra Cifer!"
"No trace could be found. They are like mysterious beings who suddenly appeared in the world, possibly belonging to a special race that has never been recorded!"
"It can tear through space, has super self-healing ability, and its speed and strength are even above those of Admiral. It also has two transformations."
"He acts arrogantly and recklessly, destroying half of the Sabaody Archipelago with a single blow. He is a more terrifying figure than that Whitebeard!"
Brannew slammed two arrest warrants onto the blackboard, one with the original photo but a different amount.
The other photo, which appeared out of nowhere, shows Cifer holding the Lightning Spear! His eyes are sharp but devoid of any emotion.
"Bounty: 5.269 billion Belly!"
"They are Super Great Pirate crew with a total Bounty exceeding 10 billion!"
(The Bounty has been removed; you should be able to see it now.)
