"Ahhhh~"

Kari clutched his severed left arm with his right hand, his face contorted in agony from the pain.

Listening to Kari's screams, Victor calmly took out a cigarette, not continuing his attack.

He hadn't intended to kill Kari.

Existence is reasonable.

In the world of the Pirate King, every force has a reason for its existence.

Take pirates, for example. If there were no pirates in the world, then the various countries wouldn't need the World Government's protection, and there would be no need to pay Celestial Gold.

And the black market, it can also bring benefits to the World Government.

At this moment, Gion, Kaki, and others came downstairs to meet up with Victor.

"What do we do next?" Gion glanced at Kari and asked Victor.

"What do you mean, 'what do we do'?" Victor replied casually.

"???" Gion was stunned. She thought Victor would take further action.

"From today onwards, if you want to continue doing business in the New World, then get on good terms with me. Also, give me the client list from the past few months."

Victor said to Kari, then left the castle with his group.

"Bastard." Kari watched Victor leave. Although he was furious, the thought of a surprise attack was gone.

Just as they reached outside the castle.

Wright curiously asked Victor, "Senior, how did you avoid his liquid just now?"

Connor and the others were also very curious.

They clearly saw the liquid spraying towards Victor.

Those guards just now couldn't dodge the liquid and ended up as charred corpses.

Before Victor could answer, Kaki said dismissively, "What's so difficult about that? You just need to use Armament Haki to deflect it."

Without needing Wright, Connor, and the others to ask further, Kaki raised his hand and demonstrated for Connor, Wright, and the others.

He threw a handkerchief, and then, his hand moved towards the handkerchief, releasing Armament Haki.

The handkerchief was blown away!

This was the release of Armament Haki.

It could be used for both defense and offense.

Therefore, in Victor's eyes, Kari's Devil Fruit ability was just for show.

Much like Sugar's Hobby Hobby Fruit.

As long as one knew the characteristics of Sugar's ability, she could be easily defeated.

"Armament Haki."

Wright and Connor, among others, also wanted to train Armament Haki as soon as possible.

Victor saw their reactions and knew what they were thinking. He patted their heads and said, "First, build a solid foundation for your bodies. Then, it won't be too late to train Haki."

"Yes, Senior." Wright and Connor replied in unison.

Just as Victor and his group left, a man in a white suit and a white clown mask walked over.

The man looked at Kari, who was lying on the ground.

Kari's face was filled with pain.

"Is this how you treat your friends?"

Kari gritted his teeth and asked fiercely.

The clown man was from CP0. The World Government had stationed him in the black market to gather intelligence.

Of course, he and Kari had a decent relationship.

"This has nothing to do with us," the masked man clarified.

"Bastards, you're all a bunch of sons of bitches."

Kari continued to curse.

The clown man sighed, then took out a Den Den Mushi. He was going to report the events here to his superior.

He was having a headache right now.

People like Victor would disrupt his normal work.

Buru buru...

Buru buru...

The Den Den Mushi on an empty table rang.

Kong picked up the receiver.

The Den Den Mushi mimicked a Navy officer's voice.

"Fleet Admiral, we just received news that Vice Admiral Victor attacked the Saladi Black Market and severed Kari's left hand."

After listening, Kong put down the Den Den Mushi's receiver.

Kong had already received a report by the time Victor went to find Kari.

Although Victor was the commander of Branch G1 and had a certain degree of decision-making power for operations.

This was still too reckless.

While Beast Kari was no good himself, Kari had always been 'well-behaved'.

At the very least, his cooperation with the Navy and the World Government had been smooth.

Why would he go after him for no reason?

Of course, if Victor wanted to frame Kari, it would be very easy.

With Victor's methods, everything could be rationalized.

At this moment, Sengoku walked into the office.

"Did something happen?" Sengoku asked Kong.

Kong gestured for Sengoku to sit down first, then said, "Victor attacked the Saladi Black Market and cut off Kari's hand."

After hearing this, Sengoku couldn't help but sigh, "Although I knew this would happen, he's too radical."

In Sengoku's opinion, Victor's goal in gaining power and wealth was to implement a radical 'justice route'.

Money was to be used as compensation for the Navy.

Power gave him more freedom to act.

Now that Victor had power, he naturally had to start taking action.

"If we let him continue to stay in the New World..."

Kong rubbed his forehead. "It might be a troublesome matter for everyone."

"That's not our problem to consider," Sengoku said. He had initially wanted Victor to 'slow down'.

Although Victor was a genius, his rapid promotion and the great real power he had obtained were still somewhat inappropriate.

Sengoku hoped Victor would gain more experience.

"Perhaps, let the Gorosei consider it. They'll probably have a headache too."

A wry smile appeared on Kong's face.

Marie Geoise, Pangu City.

Chamber of Power.

The Gorosei had received the news even earlier.

"Victor... this guy... isn't he a bit too diligent?"

"Although he's indeed very obedient, his resentment towards Pirates cannot be easily dismissed."

"If we let him continue unchecked, it will disrupt our plans in the New World."

"What can we do then? He just became the commander of Branch G1."

"Give him something to do, at least keep him busy."

"Let him continue pursuing Roger, or let him hunt the Golden Lion."

"Yes, let's arrange it like that."

The Gorosei began to discuss.

Although the World Government had withdrawn from the New World, it was still secretly controlling the New World through other means.

Beast Kari was also one of the World Government's puppets.

Although Kari had his so-called 'principles' and protected his clients' information from being leaked, the Gorosei were mostly uninterested in those 'clients'.

This was because the World Government had already planted spies near those 'clients'.
