You're that Marine Admiral?
Mr. 5 looked at Haku with a serious expression. He knew that in the face of such a powerful person, trying to escape under her nose was simply a pipe dream!
Haku watched with amusement as Miss Valentine continued to float higher into the sky!
He slowly began to speak, "Flying that high makes you more susceptible to being struck by lightning!"
Just as Haku finished speaking, a bolt of lightning struck the high-rise building right next to Miss Valentine!
Miss Valentine stared in horror at the skyscraper struck by lightning, a wave of fear washing over her. She knew that if she had flown any higher, she would likely have been struck directly by the lightning. The thought sent a chill down her spine, and she became even more wary of Haku's power.
At this point, Mr. 5 realized the seriousness of the situation. He understood that even he and Miss Valentine combined were no match for Haku. If they wanted to survive, they had to find a way to escape as soon as possible.
However, Haku didn't seem to have any intention of letting them off the hook. He slowly walked towards Mr. 5 and Miss Valentine, a mocking smile on his face, and said, "What? Now you know how powerful I am, right? Too bad, you have no chance to escape!"
Mr. 5 gritted his teeth and said, "Navy, don't be too smug! We, Baroque Works, will not let you get away with this!"
"Oh? Is that so?" Haku smiled dismissively. "Then let me see how Baroque Works is going to really make things difficult for me!"
After saying that, Haku suddenly launched an attack, and a powerful energy wave instantly struck Mr. 5 and Miss Valentine. The two had no time to react and were hit by the energy wave, falling heavily to the ground.
"Cough cough!" Mr. 5 struggled to his feet, only to find that his body was seriously injured. Miss Valentine was in the same situation, lying on the ground in pain, seemingly unable to fight.
Haku glanced at them disdainfully, because these two were indeed pitifully weak in his eyes!
Mr. 5 and Miss Valentine exchanged a glance, both revealing expressions of helplessness and despair. They knew they had utterly failed and had no chance of turning things around.
Moreover, the two of them also thought about the consequences of failing their mission at Baroque Works!
Haku didn't waste any more words with the two men. He took out two pairs of Seastone Handcuffs from his System Space and handcuffed them.
After doing all this, he immediately turned his gaze to where Vivi was!
"Are you that Marine Admiral?" Vivi looked at the scene before her in disbelief.
From the moment she was rescued until now, her mind is still reeling!
Haku smiled and nodded, saying, "Yes, Princess Vivi, I am Marine Admiral Haku."
As Haku said this, she also struck what she thought was a graceful pose.
Princess Vivi's eyes widened; she could hardly believe her eyes. She had heard of Haku's reputation, but she never imagined she would meet him under these circumstances. Moreover, he was now her savior.
"Thank you, Admiral Haku!" Princess Vivi said gratefully. "If you hadn't appeared in time, I'm afraid I would have met with misfortune."
Haku waved her hand and said, "Princess Vivi, you needn't be so polite. Protecting citizens is the Navy's duty. Moreover, the Baroque Works' conspiracy has already posed a great threat to the Alabasta Kingdom, and our Navy naturally cannot stand idly by."
Princess Vivi nodded, took a deep breath, and said, "Admiral Haku, I have a request, and I hope you will grant it."
Seeing Princess Vivi's earnest expression, Haku nodded and said, "Your Highness, please speak. I will do my best to help, as long as it is within my power."
Princess Vivi bit her lip and said, "I hope you can help me expose Crocodile's conspiracy and protect the peace and tranquility of the Alabasta Kingdom."
Looking into the other's earnest and determined eyes, Haku patted her forehead and said, "It seems your father has raised quite a queen! I wonder why he set his sights on me?"
Vivi was taken aback; she hadn't expected to hear news about her father from Haku.
But what's with that guy, his own father, trying to take advantage of him?
Vivi's eyes widened, and she looked at Haku with a puzzled expression, asking, "You know my father? What does he want with you?"
Haku smiled slightly, shook her head, and said, "It's nothing. There are some things you're better off knowing later. Besides, I haven't agreed to your father's conditions!"
Vivi was completely confused by what Haku had just said.
She understood that the only answer Haku could be found by asking her father!
Vivi suddenly realized that her attention had been diverted by Haku's words.
Then, she stared longingly at Haku in front of her.
Her eyes held the look of a pitiful little puppy, and that expectant gaze sent chills down Haku's spine!
Haku sighed softly and said, "Alright, alright, stop staring at me like that! I was invited by your father to handle matters related to Baroque Works!"
Upon hearing Haku's words, Princess Vivi's eyes immediately lit up, as if she had seen a glimmer of hope. She excitedly grabbed Haku's arm and asked eagerly, "Then have you promised to help me expose Crocodile's plot?"
Haku glanced at his arm, which Vivi was gripping tightly, and calmly pulled it away. He nodded and said, "Of course, since I've already promised your father, I will do my utmost to complete this task."
"Hahaha! So what if you're Marine Admiral? Mr. 0's plan is almost complete!"
"It's impossible for you to stop the conflict between the Royal Army and the Rebel Army now, and even if you managed to hold both sides back, what then!"
"Mr. 0 has left a huge surprise in Arubana!" Miss Valentine said somewhat hysterically.
Her expression suggested that even if she and Mr. 5 were captured, so what? She believed that Haku couldn't stop Crocodile's plan at all!
"Ah! The surprise you're talking about isn't that bomb hidden in Arubana, is it?" Haku said, picking her ear with her pinky.
Miss Valentine's pupils contracted; she couldn't understand how Haku knew about the bomb.
Mr. 5 then asked seriously, "How did you know about the existence of that bomb?"
