Haku smiled, not embarrassed that she could 'hear' some sounds.

Aokiji sighed and continued, "Right or wrong, this question is too complicated. It can't be answered simply by right and wrong. The Ohara Incident was the Navy and the World Government's suppression of historical truth. They were afraid that the uncovering of those buried histories would cause social unrest."

However, the Ohara scholars' pursuit and love of history are undeniable. They wanted to seek the truth and let the world understand true history.

"So, there is no absolute right or wrong in this matter. It's just that we have different positions and different opinions." Aokiji said with a hint of helplessness and emotion in his tone.

Haku nodded after hearing this and said, "Indeed, many things are not so simple. Like Pirates, some people think they are villains, while others think they are heroes."

However, as members of the Navy, all we need to do is fulfill our responsibilities and uphold our beliefs and principles; that's enough.

Aokiji's eyes flashed with admiration upon hearing this. He said, "You're right. We each have our own path to walk. As long as we stick to our beliefs and are not swayed by external influences, that's enough."

Haku smiled; she knew that Aokiji had his own principles.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have had such a big conflict with Akainu over the position of Fleet Admiral.

The two continued on their way without exchanging many words. However, Haku knew that Aokiji had partially resolved his inner conflict. He was no longer so fixated on the rights and wrongs of the past, but had begun to focus on the Future and Robin's fate.

Before Aokiji left, Haku suddenly said, "Kuzan, if you ever have nowhere to go in the future, remember to come work for me at G5 Base!"

This statement might have sounded a bit strange to Aokiji.

However, Haku believes he will consider it in the Future!

The following day, which was the day after the Straw Hat Pirates' banquet.

The Enies Lobby incident was widely reported! And Luffy's bounty successfully increased to 300 million Belly!

Having just returned from the Iceburg, Haku looked at the new Bounty Poster in his hand, then looked up at Luffy and said, "Honestly, if you weren't the old man's grandson, this amount would be enough for me to arrest you!"

Luffy chuckled and said nonchalantly, "Haku, you wouldn't do that, would you? Besides, 300 million Belly is just a number to you!"

Haku chuckled at Luffy's nonchalant attitude, shook her head, and said, "You're always so optimistic. But you're right, the bounty is just a number to me!"

Just then, Sanji walked over, carrying a plate of freshly grilled meat that smelled delicious. He smiled and said, "What are you two talking about? Come and try some of my freshly grilled meat!"

Luffy hearing this, Luffy couldn't help but swallow hard. He quickly went over and began to feast.

On an island in the Grand Line, the ever-growing Smoker realized that what he needed now was status!

After reading the new newspaper, he said with a serious expression, "After the Enies Lobby incident, perhaps Pirates all over the world will begin to respect the Straw Hat Pirates!"

Having successfully transferred to G5 Base, Smoker decides to risk his honor and defeat the Straw Hat Pirates in the New World.

Alabasta Vivi and others have received a new bounty.

Looking at the Bounty Poster in her hand, Vivi said with a puzzled expression, "Although I don't understand why Nico Robin became Luffy's crewmate, Luffy must have his reasons... He's the man who will become the Pirate King!"

At the sea restaurant, Zeff laughed heartily, "These guys actually conquered that place! The Straw Hat Pirates's fame must have spread all over the world by now!"

Foosha Village. The villagers hold a banquet to celebrate Luffy's bounty of 300 million.

In Syrup Village, Kaya became the local doctor. Looking at the Bounty Poster for Usopp in her hand, she smiled and said, "When he returns, I need to be able to treat him!"

In Shimotsuki Village, the teacher was troubled by the fact that all the children in the dojo wanted to learn the Three Sword Style. He complained, "This senior is really troublesome..."

The smile on Nami's bounty photo in Cocoyasi Village proves that Luffy fulfilled his promise to Genzo.

In the Kingdom of Sakura, Dr. Kureha, sitting on a stool, looked at Chopper's Bounty Poster. She picked up her bottle, took a sip, and said with satisfaction, "As long as I can see his face, that's enough. This bounty is better than any letter."

Baldigo. A secret base of the Revolutionary Army.

Sabo flipped through the Bounty Poster in his hand, excitedly saying, "Boss... Luffy and his crew, after the Enies Lobby incident, they've finally become a large Pirates crew that the government can no longer hide. The total bounty for the entire crew is 667 million plus 50 Belly!"

The dragon's expression remained unchanged; he had to maintain the solemnity expected of a leader!

However, after Sabo finished showing off, Dragon slowly walked outside the base.

A slight smile played on his lips as he murmured, "Live as you please, Luffy. With all the chance and ambition, challenge this world!"

"We will meet someday."

Banaaro Island!

After the events at Enies Lobby, Blackbeard decided to head to Water 7, which was not far away, to take the head of Straw Hat Luffy.

He decided to exchange Luffy's head for the vacant position of Shichibukai! And at this moment, his ambition and insane plan began to be implemented!

And Ace finally caught up with Blackbeard here.

The two people on the island have completely different attitudes!

Ace only had endless questions and anger towards Teach!

When Teach saw his former captain, a different idea came to his mind!

This idea actually came to him from overhearing a conversation between Whitebeard and Marco. However, he now has Luffy as a perfect alternative!

Teach looked at Ace and laughed, saying, "Zehahaha, Ace, we were once comrades. The era of Whitebeard is coming to an end, and a new world needs us to explore it together. Join me, and let's create our own era together!"

However, upon hearing this, Ace's eyes widened in anger, and he shouted, "Teach, you betrayed Whitebeard, you betrayed all of us! What right do you have to say these things to me? I only regret not seeing your true colors sooner and eliminating you!"

Teach didn't seem to care at all. He continued with a smile, "Ace, you're still too young. This world is cruel; only the strong survive. Whitebeard may be powerful!"
