"Boss, is it really okay for him to see this?"

Inside the Sea Kings's body, Dom asked Oboro.

He was referring to Oboro's ability to control Sea Kings.

If this gets out, the shock it will cause is unimaginable.

World Government will view them as an even greater threat.

At the same time, targeted arrests will be carried out on the two, and their chances of survival are extremely slim.

"No... he won't survive."

"Long said calmly."

"Besides, even if he reveals this secret... it won't matter."

The soul is capable of so many things; it possesses the power of the previous two worlds... This is something that people in the One Piece world cannot judge or speculate on using normal thinking.

As they were talking, the Sea Kings's body suddenly trembled, and even the two people inside it almost fell over, unable to help but sway.

"What's going on?!"

Dom was taken aback.

Oboro immediately closed his eyes and began to communicate with the Sea Kings through his consciousness.

A moment later, he looked up at the fleshy cavity above his head.

"It's him!"

"Who?"

Dom was stunned.

"One of the Navy Admirals, Aokiji," Oboro said calmly.

The Sea Kings were swimming in the deep sea when, unexpectedly, the water temperature suddenly dropped, and large swathes of glacier-like spikes slammed down.

This has led to numerous collisions between it and marine life.

Even the Sea Kings that was hiding the two almost got into trouble.

"We need to leave quickly!" Long frowned slightly.

It urged the 'big ship' on.

The number of Sea Kings in the Calm Belt is terrifying, and they attack and prey on each other, much like the big Sea Kings eat the small fish. This Sea Kings is small, making it an easy target for other Sea Kings. Most importantly, the deep sea is in chaos; some Sea Kings have been injured and are bleeding due to Kuzan's abilities.

The strong smell of blood attracted a large number of 'predators'.

Terrifying! Oboro's heart tightened slightly.

He has never directly confronted an Admiral. Even in the Sabaody Archipelago, Kizaru only used his ability after diving underwater, which involved an element of luck. In the original work, Oboro knew Kuzan's fighting strength all too well; this guy not only defeated Garp... but also instantly killed Charlotte Cracker, one of the three Sweet Commanders, after heading to Big Mom's territory.

Although he beat Garp, there was some exaggeration in the result.

But the result was undeniable.

"The entire ocean is frozen. Fortunately, this Sea Kings's range includes the deep sea, otherwise... it would surely be dead," Oboro thought to himself.

For safety's sake, he chose this Sea Kings... which is quite good.

Oboro was able to use this to analyze Kuzan's thoughts.

If it were anyone else, they probably would have really died.

"It seems Bona Island no longer exists..."

"Ah?"

Dom swallowed hard.

"I'm afraid it's not just an admiral; the Navy is sparing no effort to kill me, and perhaps even the hero Garp has been mobilized."

Long curled the corners of her mouth.

"The survival games of the future will be even more interesting."

Long smiled gently.

As soon as he finished speaking, Dom almost fell over again.

The Sea Kings are starting to accelerate.

As time passed, night fell.

The Navy had to admit that they had not found anyone 'unforgivable'.

The God Slayer has escaped! However, Kizaru has already led his troops to ambush Reverse Mountain. Given the mobility of the Navy warships, they should arrive before their target. Judging from the escape route, they may be aiming to enter the Four Blues, so all they need to do is guard the 'gateway'.

This differed from most people's guesses. Sengoku, including Tsuru, believed that Oboro's first choice was the New World.

They came into contact with the Yonko.

However... that's not the case.

As for the Calm Belt, Aokiji had no clue... he couldn't find a single trace.

So regardless of how the target escaped, the most likely scenario is that they left via the normal sea route.

Of course, it's also possible that it died because it trespassed into the Calm Belt... and was eaten by Sea Kings.

But the Navy basically didn't believe this idea... It had already happened once in the Sabaody Archipelago.

While the navy was searching with all its might, the whole world was once again in an uproar because of Oboro!

This makes one have to commend Morgans for his speed in getting things done.

The news agency's information network is outrageously well-informed; nobody knows where they get their information from... but once it's reported, it's considered credible.

The authority of the news agency, or rather, the Morgans brand, is beyond question.

The God Slayer is about to embark on his journey across the Four Blues!

The navy has become a joke once again!

The most mysterious man on this vast sea! Where is he going? Countless front-page posters and headlines appeared in print media throughout the streets and alleys of every kingdom and island, except for the newsbirds. Local media outlets around the world, which rely on scraps of information leaked from news agencies to operate and make a living, saw newspaper vendors start making arrangements and traveling around as soon as the news spread. Various media organizations also reprocessed and embellished the news agency's content.

In short, even before the second day, the topic was already generating a lot of buzz.

Marine Headquarters, Sengoku's office.

The Den Den Mushi) has been bombarded with calls.

Going to the Four Blues? What kind of move is this? The God Slayer is still alive is enough to excite One Piece and many who dislike the World Government... but what they can't understand even more is why Oboro wants to go to the Four Blues? What's the difference between this and courting death? And how is he going to break through the Navy's blockade?

Furthermore, which of the Four Blues is he planning to go to? These questions lingered in the minds of the audience.

Everyone is waiting for an answer.

They didn't want to see Oboro perish so quickly... They hoped Oboro could achieve an unprecedented miracle.

Just a few days later, another piece of news also ignited public opinion.

The person who exposed it was still Morgans.

In his report, he mentioned that all Yonko are currently interested in the God Slayer, and these four sea overlords are all willing to extend an olive branch to Oboro.

Morgans also released some information related to Oboro.

This includes his past experiences as a slave in the Holy Land, and his current name.

In other words, in the 'corners' unseen by ordinary people, powerful forces are moving in response to Oboro's 'whereabouts,' including the subordinates of the Yonko and the Seven Warlords of the Sea... Morgans has already exposed everything about Bona Island, even 'hinting' at some of Crocodile's actions in the Alabasta Kingdom. Doflamingo and Crocodile, both members of the Seven Warlords, seem to want to kill Oboro first. However, currently all the focus is on the God Slayer, and everyone is not interested in other matters... thus Crocodile's plans have not been greatly affected.

It was only a very brief period of attention.

However, the World Government must have noticed something amiss.

Inside the castle on Whole Cake Island.

Enraged, Charlotte Linlin swung her huge fist and slammed it into the ground.

The building was trembling, and large amounts of dust and rubble fell from the dome.

The terrifying aura she exuded sent chills down the spines of all the waiters and their children present.

"That Morgans guy... actually announced it ahead of time."

"How dare he ruin my plans!"

With her highly unstable emotions and somewhat insane demeanor, Big Mom is a terrifying creature that sends chills down your spine.

Charlotte Linlin was angry, but she also knew that finding Morgans wouldn't be easy.

Moreover, some of the intelligence sources of the Totto Land are also related to Morgans.

Given the other party's status, even if it were her, it wouldn't be appropriate to make a move.

It's just a case of suffering a loss in silence.

In this way, no matter which of the Yonko' fleets Oboro ultimately joins, he will have no way to hide his identity... The World Government will definitely launch a full-scale attack. Morgans somewhat thwarted the Yonko's hopes of recruiting Oboro... and also blocked Oboro's escape route, making the survival of the God Slayer even more difficult.

From this perspective, Morgans seems to be kicking someone when they're down.

"Even Shanks is interested in him?"

Linlin's words were gloomy.

Now, if they still insist on inviting Oboro to join, everything will have to be made public.

There is also a very critical point. Once a certain force among the Four Emperors is targeted by the World Government, then... the other three are likely to take the opportunity to cause chaos and rewrite the pattern of the new world.

These are all things we have to consider.

"Mom, should we... continue?"

At this moment, a calm voice rang out, unlike the panicked appearance of the others, it was very composed.

It is Juice Minister Smoothie.

"Find him for me!"

Linlin replied.

"Yes, Mom."

Smoothie lowered her head.

Another half month passed, and after confirming that the God Slayer was still alive and his whereabouts were unknown.

Finally, the World Government updated the bounty poster for Oboro, along with that for Dom.

The unforgivable sinner, God Slayer, bounty 500 million Beli.

Dom, the Cunning Fox, has a bounty of 50 million Beli.

From the perspective of killing Celestial Dragons, 500 million Beli is not a lot, but the World Government clearly does not want Oboro's bounty to be too high, because that would be tantamount to acknowledging Oboro's threat and admitting that they cannot deal with Oboro in the short term. Too high a bounty would encourage some criminals.

This emboldens the One Piece.

Neither the World Government nor the navy was willing to back down.

But for the ocean right now, even in the New World, a bounty of 500 million is significant and extremely rare.

Even for giants like the Seven Warlords of the Sea, some people's bounties don't reach this level.

Interestingly, the government did not mention Oboro's crimes and actions, namely the death of Celestial Dragons, in the relevant information on the arrest warrant... It's a bit ridiculous, like trying to hide something obvious.

He was trying to save face.

It was only marked as 'heinous'.

The main point is that it hasn't been long since the major events in the Sabaody Archipelago occurred.

No one has ever risen to prominence and amassed hundreds of millions in bounty in such a short time... This is unprecedented.

Amidst the turmoil and chaos in the outside world.

One day, in a blue area of East Blue Sea, huge waves surged up.

A Sea Kings emerged, its mouth open.

Led by Dom, Dom strolled leisurely out of the Sea Kings's mouth.

"This is it... the hometown of Gol Roger, the One Piece."

Gazing at the bright sunshine and the sparkling sea, he spoke softly.

Looking across the Four Blues, the East Blue One Piece are the weakest overall... but the East Blue is also the most famous of the Four Blues.

This place holds a special significance for all One Piece.

The cause, of course, is the Loguetown.

The place where Gol Roger, the One Piece, was executed.
