The Curtain Falls

Bondy a is dead, ultimately killed by Garp's fist.

At the same time, it also caused enormous damage to the navy, with more than 20,000 navy personnel killed, including three Headquarters Vice Admiral had been promoted from the headquarters. The remaining Vice Admiral were in emergency rescue and their conditions were stabilizing.

Even so, a long period of rest and recovery is still required.

The Marine Headquarters was razed to the ground, and post-war reconstruction will take a considerable amount of time.

Such a farewell would undoubtedly be perfect for a Great Pirate, but it brought immense pain to the Navy.

Did the Navy suffer a loss? Perhaps not. To outsiders, such a loss was worthwhile in exchange for the true annihilation of the Bondy Pirates.

The loss of Bondy a, a top-tier powerhouse, has significantly weakened the overall strength of the pirates.

But compared to the New World where powerful beings abound, what does this weakening amount to?

The pirates' overall strength was terrifying, and Bondy a was a powerful figure who should have been retired long ago, but Teach released him.

This trouble is largely due to Dark Emperor Teach, but the Navy has no time to bother the Night Pirates right now.

The death of Bondy a, the candidate for the Fifth Emperor, and the fall of a veteran overlord are Big News Morgans.

The trauma inflicted on the navy and the final battle drew the attention of countless people.

The World Economic News also quickly released the revised video showing the impact, which provided a clearer view of the explosion and the battle between the four top experts.

Some of them felt sorry for the navy, believing that it shouldn't have suffered such a huge loss.

Bondy a alone could not shake the Marine Headquarters.

Unfortunately, Bondy a possessed a powerful weapon and attacked in a way that was almost mutually destructive.

Some felt that Bondy a ' a death was a waste, believing Bondy it was too unworthy for such a top-tier powerhouse to die like that, and that such a moth-to-a-flame manner of death was foolish.

Even if they demonstrate formidable strength.

Some people boast that if they were Bondy a, possessing such terrifying weapons, they could inflict massive damage on the Navy and then retreat unscathed.

Many people indulge in this kind of self-indulgent fantasy, but they lack the power or even access to it.

Many people dismiss such remarks with disdain. Do they really think storming the Marine Headquarters is so easy? Coming and going as they please?

Knowing the horrors of the Navy, Bondy a chose this method to end his life.

Otherwise, he could have caused some damage at Marine Headquarters before targeting the World Government, and the final stage could have been the Red Line, just like Golden Lion Shiki.

Unfortunately, Bondy a's abilities alone were insufficient to accomplish this.

The death of a top-tier powerhouse has little impact on the seas. Bondy a didn't have many good friends to begin with, and the Bondy Pirates have already been wiped out.

Other forces around the world were simply watching the show. Having witnessed all sorts of major battles and memorable scenes, the massive explosions only surprised them slightly; after a while, they would forget about them.

Therefore, a world was born where only the Navy and the World Government were injured.

Marine Headquarters is home to many sailors, but due to the sudden arrival of Bondy a, many sailors didn't have time to pack their belongings.

Many valuable items were destroyed in the explosion.

Not everyone has a basement.

The explosion had a significant impact on Marineford, firstly creating a huge crater that will take some time to fill.

Some valuable materials were also destroyed and could not be moved in time.

The subsequent handling of various tasks kept Sengoku and his team extremely busy. Before the Marine Headquarters was rebuilt, they didn't even have a place to work and had to set up temporary offices.

The resettlement issue was also significant, as virtually all naval barracks were destroyed.

They could only temporarily borrow undamaged residential houses in the rear, and also had to send a group of naval personnel to other Marine Branch for temporary resettlement, while seeking some assistance.

All sorts of things were giving Sengoku a huge headache, and it was foreseeable that the entire navy would be extremely busy in the coming days.

In addition, it is necessary to take into account the targeting and suppression of pirates, otherwise the pirates on the Grand Line will definitely take this opportunity to become arrogant.

New World, the Night Sea Domain.

"How are you feeling?" Teach lay in the icy water, half of his chest above the surface, looking like he had just finished exercising.

This is Teach's habit; he likes to soak his body in ice water after exercising to soothe his flesh and blood cells that have been under intense pressure for a long time.

Perhaps influenced by Teach, many crew members in the Night Pirates also use this method of relaxation, and it's even a common practice within the Combat Pyramid.

The two hideous scars on her chest, instead of intersecting, added to her charm.

Upon seeing Rediat's arrival, Teach waved slightly to the beautiful mermaid basking in the water by the pool.

These mermaids wisely left the pool through a special passage, knowing that the following conversation was not for them to hear, and besides, it was just a change of scenery.

"He's just so-so. Bondy a is nowhere near Shiki." Initially, he was somewhat interested in Bondy a, but compared to Golden Lion Shiki, he was rather disappointing.

"However, his ruthlessness still surprised me; it shows his courage."

The only thing that Rediat found somewhat interesting was the terrifying explosion. Although he had witnessed one on J Island before, the explosion of eight Dyna Stone was far more terrifying.

Three naval vice Vice Admiral were killed in the bombing.

However, their deaths only indicate their weakness. With so many Headquarters Vice Admiral, why were only three of them killed?

Haven't too many Marine Vice Admiral died in the past few years?

Rediat didn't care about this matter either. He didn't take Vice Admiral seriously, unless it was someone like Garp, Tsuru, or Admiral.

The aura of the older generation of overlords did not affect Rediat; ultimately, Bondy a was not qualified.

In Rediat's eyes, he and Bondy a were on the same level, with no distinction between them, so he naturally did not feel the same kind of sentiment as when Shiki fell.

Bondy a is far inferior to Shiki, not only in terms of strength.

"Well, how should I put it? It's just a bit bland, not as exciting as I imagined," Rediat said calmly.

"That's normal." Teach indicated his understanding. They were different from before; even legendary figures were no longer legends in their eyes.

The so-called halo effect has no effect on them.

Because they are legends themselves.

At this point, Teach looked at Rediat with a strange smile.

This gave Rediat a bad feeling, and he couldn't help but take a small step back.

"Just say what's on your mind, Teach," Rediat couldn't help but say. Teach definitely had something to tell him; it probably wasn't bad, but it wasn't exactly good either, that was Rediat's premonition.

"In a few months, I'll have a son coming over. He's a swordsman, so..." Teach didn't finish his sentence, giving him a knowing look.

Rediat understood Teach's meaning: he wanted Redart to teach Teach's son swordsmanship. This was not a problem for him, since he had some free time in the Night Sea Domain anyway.

Now that the Night Pirates have reached the top, besides improving their strength, they spend most of their time enjoying the scenery, admiring the view of the sea.

Taking some time to teach a child is not a problem for him, since he is only being taught the basics. True growth depends on his own understanding.

However, he still looked at Teach with some surprise, his eyes widening slightly. "Teach, you have another son? How many do you have? You don't get one every year, do you?"

As he spoke, Rediat even cracked a little joke.

It's already surprising that Teach has one son, but now he has another. Judging from Saga's age when he arrived, this child must be close to seven years old.

"It's not that exaggerated. Including Saga, there are two more, a pair of twins, a boy and a girl. The boy is called Garron, and the girl is called Mijela. They will all come." Teach chuckled, thinking that one a year was really too much.

While childbirth wouldn't harm one's vitality, Teach didn't want Monica to become a baby-making machine. Monica wasn't Big Mom; after all, she was just an ordinary person.

Teach had no restrictions, after all, she had some hidden shadows in her heart, and she didn't even dare to have children because she couldn't afford to raise them.

Now that he has no qualms, Teach still feels a little guilty towards Monica deep down, so Teach makes time to visit her every now and then.

Of course, he would avoid Garron and Mijela; he didn't want to see them until the time was right.

"Is it time to consider a third child? "Teach couldn't help but stroke his chin, thinking that Monica would be lonely again after Garron and Mijela left.

These children won't have time to see Monica, Teach will also impose restrictions. Once their identities are exposed, they will definitely attract a lot of attention, especially from the World Government and the Navy.

Teach didn't want to reveal anything about Monica to avoid any unforeseen consequences.

The World Government and the Navy are capable of anything, especially CP agents, in order to deal with him.

Although live streaming is now possible, it's still not as good as being there in person.

"Hehe, as expected of you, you've kept it well hidden," Rediat couldn't help but laugh. "But this kind of thing can be left to Mr. Yuan Liu, he should be more suitable than me."

Mr. Yuan Liu is naturally Genryuusai Shigekuni, the world's top Great Swordmaster, as well as one of the world's strongest individuals and a monster among the common people.

He has now arrived in the Night Sea Domain, but not on Pagila Island, but on a nearby small island, where it is quieter and not as lively as Pagila Island.

Monkey King Wine, which can nourish the body and prolong life, Longevity Potion, as well as Elixir of Immortality made primarily from Dragon Bone, which can extend life by decades.

In short, the Night Pirates have given them far too much. No one would complain about having too long a life, not even a strong person like Genryuusai Shigekuni.

The minor injuries I sustained in my early years have almost completely disappeared. Approaching eighty, I remain healthy and robust. The sea changes, the times advance—isn't it good to witness all this? How could I possibly be willing to die like this?

At Teach's invitation, Genryuusai Shigekuni settled in the Night Sea Domain.

He doesn't usually need to take action; simply staying in the Night Sea Domain is enough to serve as a deterrent.

Having received a favor from the Night Pirates, he wouldn't have the heart to refuse when they needed him, even though such an opportunity might not come again.

In terms of swordsmanship, Genryuusai Shigekuni is undoubtedly far superior to Rediat, and even with Rediat's experience with Radelfield, he still cannot compare.

Moreover, Rediat had never been a teacher.

"Of course I've considered that. Swordsmanship is something you have to learn on your own; that way you're more adaptable. The foundation is the same for everyone. Besides, I don't want to get too much scheming involved." Teach shook his head slightly. Teach had great respect for Genryuusai Shigekuni.

If Teach were to ask Genryuusai Shigekuni to take Garron as his disciple, Genryuusai Shigekuni might not refuse, but it could also create some distance between the two.

Could this be Teach's way of trying to get him onto the Night Pirates' big ship?

Even without such thoughts, Teach would overthink it.

Genryuusai Shigekuni did not establish a dojo; he relied entirely on fate to accept disciples. Now, those two disciples have grown up and have respectively obtained Teach's Purgatory and Thunderclap.

Those who were chosen by Genryuusai Shigekuni must have been top-notch in swordsmanship, and over the years they have become renowned Great Swordmaster.

Although he didn't join the Night Pirates, Teach didn't care.

"That's true, it's a small matter. I'll teach him properly when the time comes." Teach's words made Rediat nod. Why would he refuse?

"And what about the other one? What are your plans for your daughter? It won't be like Saga's, will it?" Rediat asked curiously.

"Mijela? It's up to her to choose. She doesn't need to shoulder such a heavy responsibility like Saga and Garron, nor does she need so much training. I don't have high expectations for her future. If she's willing, her identity doesn't need to be hidden." Teach smiled slightly, a lovely face appearing before her eyes.

"Oh! You're not planning to hide it?" Teach's decision didn't surprise Rediat. He smiled slightly, thinking that daughters and sons were different.

"You have to cherish your daughter," Teach laughed.

As for her identity, there's no need to worry about it. As the daughter of the Dark Emperor, she holds a noble position and will naturally have powerful protectors. Even if outsiders were to make a move, they would risk offending the Night Pirates.

Even the World Government wouldn't do this lightly, because it's simply not worth it.

They dared not imagine how much they would suffer, or even be wiped out, in the face of the Night Pirates' wrath.

This is the era of the Dark Emperor and the Night Pirates. Even if Saga and his crew don't hide their identities, it doesn't matter. The Night Pirates can protect them, mainly to train them.

"That's settled then. I need to go back to the West Blue to visit." Speaking of the children, Rediat also missed his own children and wanted to take the opportunity to return to the West Blue.

"Yes, bring the child over to visit sometime, and I'll prepare a gift for him personally."
