Back at headquarters, Tsuru reported the mission's progress to Sengoku.
Upon hearing that Kaido was also involved in this incident, Sengoku broke out in a cold sweat, as he was well aware of Kaido's strength.
Having encountered Kaido twice in one day, the fact that the Marines who went there have managed to return alive is already something to celebrate.
Fortunately, Senga was there for this mission; otherwise, things could have been much worse. Both Momonga and Marigold are among Vice Admiral strongest vice admirals, and losing them would undoubtedly be a major blow to the Navy.
Tsuru is a symbol of the Navy. If something happens to Tsuru during this mission, Sengoku doesn't know if he can remain calm, Garp might rush to Onigashima alone to seek revenge.
It's good that they all came back safe and sound; the Op-Op Fruit seem insignificant compared to the lives of these people.
Thinking about this, Sengoku felt that the mission failure wasn't a big deal; Senga had fought to the point of exhaustion! But he still wanted to have a few words with the Gorosei.
Instead, Crane asked with some concern,
"What did Mary Geoise say?"
"Don't worry, I'll explain the reasons for the mission's failure to them. You and Senga just need to rest now."
"Alright, I'll head down then. I'll leave the negotiations with those people to you, Sengoku."
"Um."
After saying this, Tsuru left Sengoku's office, while Sengoku contacted the Gorosei.
The Gorosei were naturally furious upon hearing of the mission's failure, but the blame couldn't really be placed on Sengoku or the Navy.
First of all, this mission encountered a very difficult character to deal with, namely Kaido, and the information about the Op-Op Fruit was probably revealed to Kaido by Doflamingo.
Doflamingo must have already told Kaido the secret of the Op-Op Fruit's ability to perform Immortality Surgery, otherwise Kaido wouldn't have had to take action personally.
Doflamingo's knowledge of such confidential information is inextricably linked to his former status as Celestial Dragons, so ultimately, the reason lies with this very person?
However, it was impossible to get them to admit their mistakes. They simply stopped criticizing the failure of the mission and let the matter drop.
Senga had already given Sengoku a week's leave. Everyone knew that it was Senga who had saved Kaido this time, and Momonga and the others even hoped to give Senga more leave so that he could get a good rest.
Senga replied that it was really unnecessary!
After returning to her office with Kalifa and Ain, Senga took out four Devil Fruits from her Door-Door Space and placed them on the table.
The simultaneous appearance of four Devil Fruit left Kalifa and Ain completely stunned, as if they were looking at a bunch of cabbages.
Actually, there's still the fruit that Ain gave him in Senga's Door-Door Space. He hasn't had time to figure out which fruit it is yet. He'll find out later by testing it on a small pirate.
Senga pointed to the fruits on the table and introduced their names and abilities to the two women. Then she looked at Kalifa and asked her if she had her eye on any of them.
Ain had already eaten Devil Fruit, and the main reason for calling her here was to prevent her from feeling alienated.
Kalifa hesitated for a moment, then shook her head. To be honest, she didn't really like any of these fruits.
Although these four fruits significantly boosted her Battle Power, she no longer wanted fruits that were geared towards combat; instead, she preferred a fruit with special support abilities.
With her boss around, she felt like the safest person in the world.
Seeing that Kalifa wasn't interested in the fruits, Senga didn't say anything more. There would be plenty of opportunities to obtain Devil Fruit in the future, and there was no rush.
However, among these four fruits, there is one that Senga likes, namely the Explosion-Explosion Fruit on the side.
The Explosion-Explosion Fruit, as the name suggests, has the ability to explode. It's very simple and brutal. Putting aside the ability to self-destruct, its main feature is that it can detonate inorganic matter. Whether it's destructive power or lethality, the damage is considerable.
It's different from Mr. 5's Bomb-Bomb Fruit, who uses booger bombs under Crocodile's command. The difference is that the Explosion-Explosion Fruit is a superpower, while the Bomb-Bomb Fruit is a superhuman ability.
Speaking of booger bombs, Senga couldn't help but think of Garp, who loves picking his nose, especially in Sengoku's office. If he ate that fruit...
Thinking of this, Senga couldn't help but shudder; the scene was too beautiful to bear.
Summoning his increasingly scattered thoughts, Senga fixed his gaze on the Explosion-Explosion Fruit.
The Explosion-Explosion Fruit looks like a round, black watermelon with a thread-like vine growing from it. (Made up)
Senga placed her hand on it, closed her eyes, and used the power of the Preta Path.
A few seconds later, an ordinary watermelon appeared on the table. Kalifa pulled out a small knife from somewhere, cut the watermelon in half, and pushed one half to Senga.
Then he took a slice from the remaining watermelon and handed it to Ain, while he took another slice for himself and ate it by himself.
Kalifa and Ain stood in the office, each holding a watermelon, watching Senga, who had absorbed the Devil Fruit ability, with bated breath.
Having fully absorbed the power Senga slowly opened her eyes, only to be greeted by these two onlookers.
Senga blinked, momentarily at a loss for words.
Kalifa suddenly walked up to Senga and brought her pretty face close to his.
This situation stunned Senga. What's going on? What's he trying to do? Ain is right there!
Kalifa stared at Senga's right eye for a moment, then nodded thoughtfully and said, "M."
"As expected, another Tomoe has been added. How amazing!"
"Uh, that's it?"
Senga looked at her secretary speechlessly, feeling a little disappointed.
"Huh? What else, boss? What are you thinking?"
Kalifa tilted her head, looking at Senga with a puzzled expression, as if she didn't understand what Senga meant at all. Ain chuckled to herself.
"Damn it, this secretary is getting more and more arrogant!" Senga thought to herself, then calmed down and experienced the power she had just acquired.
After a while, Chiga suddenly stuck out a finger and touched a cup. The cup suddenly expanded and then exploded into a pile of fragments, startling Kalifa Ein.
Senga glanced at Kalifa and Ain, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned up. "You little brats, you're getting more and more disrespectful."
Then, looking at the shards of the cup on the table, he nodded in satisfaction. Whether it was the control of his abilities or the power of the explosion, he had far surpassed that of Gladius.
It can easily compress the blast radius and increase its power; otherwise, it wouldn't have just blown up a cup, and what would have remained after the explosion would have been fragments rather than debris.
