"The Navy from the Loguetown branch has arrived."
By now, the street at the eastern entrance was already packed with people. Even the rooftops were crowded.
The Navy didn't stop them, allowing all sorts of unsavory characters to crowd around.
At the head of the group were six Vice Admirals from headquarters and more than thirty Rear Admirals. They had all landed in Loguetown several days earlier.
Young Rear Admirals such as Onigumo and Strawberry were among them.
"Scary, isn't it?"
"I never expected the Navy branch to be guarded by six Vice Admirals."
"That's some force."
Bang!
Marco, Thatch, and the others landed one after another on a building. They looked down at the eerily quiet street, their eyes sweeping back and forth.
"The CPO... The World Government really went all out."
Marco furrowed his brow as he looked at the masked figures in the crowd.
Those men were only wearing masks, and their clothes looked quite ordinary, but Marco recognized them at a glance.
Marco wasn't the only one who recognized them. Figures on several other rooftops had spotted them too, including Doflamingo.
On the horizon, more than thirty enormous warships drew closer, bristling with cannons. Even before they arrived, they brought a terrifying pressure that instantly silenced the previously noisy Loguetown.
"Reporting: we're about to land in Loguetown."
On the largest warship at the center, a marine in the crow's nest lowered his binoculars and gave his report.
"So we've finally arrived?"
Sengoku's expression was solemn.
He wore a white suit beneath his Marine Admiral's coat of justice. The braided beard on his chin fluttered in the sea breeze, and his tall frame radiated a powerful presence.
Beside Sengoku, Zephyr watched the harbor with an impassive expression. Garp, by contrast, was thoroughly enjoying his rice crackers.
