The White Wolf Returned to His Loyal Sphinx!

There were no surprises.

It took Moger less than ten minutes to destroy the three Great Pirate crews occupying Sphinx and round up their leaders.

The power gap between ordinary Great Pirates and Admiral-level forces was simply too vast.

Even though Moger had only just stepped into that realm.

But without a strong opponent of similar strength to hold him back, he was like a natural disaster to ordinary pirates.

If the three Great Pirates had attacked together, they might have lasted a move or two against Moger.

But when Monster Moz charged forward alone.

The outcome was already decided.

When only Black Merchant Duke Men was left, the middle-aged gentleman pirate quickly raised his hands in surrender, fearing he would suffer the same fate as the other two.

"Mr. Moger, I was coerced by them. I'm just a merchant, and I have no reason to conflict with the White Wolf Pirates!"

"Oh?"

Moger boarded Black Merchant Duke Men's pirate ship and sat on the bow, looking down at Duke Men.

"But that's not what you were saying just now."

"A misunderstanding, all a misunderstanding!"

Black Merchant Duke Men broke out in a cold sweat. Neither the strongest Monster Moz nor the most resilient Undead Jason could withstand a single move from Moger, so he had no intention of foolishly continuing to fight Moger.

"It's very simple if you want me to let you go."

Moger's sword pointed at Black Merchant Duke Men's forehead.

"What can you give me?"

Others might not know, but Moger was well aware that he was currently a lone commander in the White Wolf Pirates. Lipri and Rocks hadn't grown yet. They could wreak havoc in the first half of the Grand Line, but they were still too green for the second half.

"I can help you continue to manage Sphinx..."

Seeing Moger's expression turn cold, Black Merchant Duke Men exclaimed, "And I guarantee that from now on, there will only be the White Wolf Pirates' flag on Sphinx. We will take no share of the profits, and the Black Merchant Pirates are willing to join the White Wolf Pirates and become their subordinate fleet!"

After speaking, Black Merchant Duke Men was filled with apprehension, fearing Moger would refuse.

After all, many rumors indicated that the White Wolf Pirates had no interest in expanding their territory. Compared to other ambitious pirate crews, the White Wolf Pirates were more like a pure adventure group, adventurers striving for their ideals.

Otherwise, if Moger wished, even if the powerful pirates were unwilling to join, there were weak pirates all over the sea.

However, the pirates were unaware that the White Wolf Pirates were constantly entangled with the CP organization under the government at that time and were powerless to expand their influence.

If their power grew too large, it would attract the Marines' encirclement and suppression.

At that time, Moger did not have the strength to repel a Marine Admiral.

But now, it was different.

"Interesting."

Moger's laughter sounded like heavenly music to Black Merchant Duke Men's ears.

"You should know what I hate the most. In the years I was away, Sphinx seems to have become rather chaotic. If you can clean up Sphinx's underworld, I don't mind letting you go."

"I understand!"

Black Merchant Duke Men quickly nodded. "It will take at most a month, no, two weeks. I will shut down the entire slave trading market in Sphinx and rectify the pleasure district, ensuring that those filthy things don't offend your eyes!"

Duke Men lowered his head and said humbly.

As for the Great Pirates who controlled the slave trade, Duke Men didn't mention them, as Moger's attitude suggested he didn't care at all.

Could it be...

Thinking of how Moger had easily defeated Monster Moz and Undead Jason, thinking of Moger's much younger face, which was inconsistent with the rumors.

Was this Moger before him the successor of the true White Wolf Moger?

It wasn't strange for Duke Men to have this thought.

Moger looked too young, not like a seventy-year-old man at all, but more like a middle-aged man in his early fifties.

Younger, stronger, and more ambitious!

Duke Men was certain that while the rumored White Wolf Moger was strong, he didn't possess the strength to defeat a Great Pirate with a bounty of over 100 million in a single blow.

This was the power possessed by a true legendary Great Pirate!

If a seventy-year-old man had displayed this strength, Duke Men, even if he bowed his head and submitted to its might, would not have wholeheartedly worked for Moger.

But if the possessor of this strength was younger and more ambitious, what was wrong with him bowing his head? He was, after all, just a merchant. Unlike Monster Moz, he didn't possess Conqueror's Haki, nor did he have the pride of a Great Pirate like Undead Jason, unwilling to surrender to Moger easily.

As long as there was profit to be made, selling himself and even his pirate crew was something he could consider.

"I hope you won't disappoint me."

Moger was unaware that in Duke Men's eyes, he had transformed from White Wolf Moger into a secretly trained successor of White Wolf Moger.

In fact, many pirates were already questioning Moger's identity.

But he didn't care about Duke Men's thoughts, let alone the thoughts of others. Even if Duke Men betrayed him in the future, he had to do his job well in front of him now.

The rookies still need time to develop.

If Duke Men behaved himself and did what he was supposed to, I could let the past go. But if he gets any funny ideas...

Then don't blame me for being merciless!

"There are still too few talented people!"

Mongge sighed, looking in the direction of the Black Pearl.

After Mongge defeated Monster Moz and Undead Jason, the pirates who had gone to attack the Black Pearl lost their will to fight.

With their captain's fate unknown, what was the point of continuing the fight?

His trusted subordinates were all by his side.

Most of those sent to attack the Black Pearl were either fringe members or cannon fodder.

There were a few pirates with decent strength who, by joining forces, had managed to suppress Lipri and Rocks for a time. However, they hadn't expected Monster Moz and Undead Jason to be defeated so quickly. By the time they were halfway through their fight, they saw Mongge looking their way.

They didn't dare to fight anymore, they didn't dare.

Seeing Rocks, who was weaker than them and looking smug in front of them, a few pirates felt resentful: Can a captain do whatever he wants just because he's strong?

Rocks & Lipri: Sorry, a strong captain really can do whatever he wants.

Even Edward Newgate and the others were protected by Rocks and Lipri, so they didn't encounter any danger.

And so.

In Marine Era 1461, Mongge returned to his loyal Sphinx.

However, the battle between the White Wolf Pirates and the three Great Pirate crews could not be hidden from the intelligence organizations lurking on the island.

That night, news of the White Wolf Pirates' appearance on Sphinx spread like wildfire.

The storm was coming.
