Make the World Feel Pain-That Is My "Justice"!
Just like the last time Whitebeard the Second.'s bounty was distributed.
This time, the World Government once again sent the bounty on Golden Lion II by fax to every corner of the ocean.
Four Seas, Paradise, New World...
Countless organizations and forces connected to the World Government, especially every Member Nations, have received the bounty offered by the Golden Lion II.
The Germa Kingdom, which is still a member World Government Member States, naturally also received this bounty.
The giant snail's travel speed is average.
When the bounty for Golden Lion II was delivered to the Germa Kingdom.
The giant snail remains within the East Blue and has not even reached the Red Line Continent.
Even after reaching the Red Line Continent, it would take the giant snail several weeks, or even a whole month, to successfully reach the North Blue.
The Germa Kingdom has received a bounty from Golden Lion II.
The members of the Storm Pirates, who are still within the Germa Kingdom, have naturally seen this bounty.
In a small castle that Vinsmoke Gage had specially assigned to the Storm Pirates.
The members of the Storm Pirates held up the bounty poster for the Golden Lion II and marveled at it.
"Mr. Edward's bounty is 1,999 million Beli."
"Mr. Rhein's bounty is 1.832 billion Beli."
"Our Captain's bounty is 95 million Beli."
Robin looked at the brand-new bounty poster in front of him and recounted it as if it were a treasure.
"Based on this calculation, the difference between Mr. Edward and Mr. Rhein is roughly equivalent to that between two Captain?"
"Robin, doesn't that sound a bit inappropriate?"
Nami's eyes sparkled as she looked at the several bounty posters in front of her.
"But there's so much money! If only we could give Mr. Edward or Mr. Rhein to the Navy... slurp"
"Nami."
Robin looked at Nami with amusement.
What you're saying seems even 'worse' than what I'm saying, doesn't it?
"Don't worry about such details..."
Nami looked longingly at the exorbitant bounty amounts on the wanted posters, which were often tens or even billions of Beli. Suddenly, she started fantasizing about her own wanted poster.
"If one day in the future I also have a bounty on my head by the World Government, will my bounty exceed 100 million Beli?"
One hundred million Beli is Nami's obsession.
"Probably not."
Robin rested his chin on his hand and answered softly.
"We are the Captain's men, and the Captain is Shichibukai."
"Having accepted the Captain's protection, we will not be subject to bounties set by the World Government and the Marine Headquarters."
"Unless one day the Captain stops being Shichibukai..."
"Huh? Is that how it is?"
Nami doesn't know much about the specifics of the Shichibukai system.
"But why are Mr. Edward and Mr. Rhein wanted?"
This is probably because...
Robin tilted his head and said uncertainly.
"The World Government and the Marine Headquarters don't know that we're actually in cahoots with Mr. Edward and Mr. Rhein?"
"Actually..."
Nami thought for a moment, then couldn't help but shrink her neck.
"Actually, I also feel that Mr. Edward and Mr. Rhein don't seem like the kind of people who would accompany us..."
Hearing this, Robin nodded almost imperceptibly; she also agreed with Nami's opinion.
Storm's skill and reputation are indeed very high.
However, compared to Whitebeard the Second. and Golden Lion II., he certainly didn't seem to be in the same league...
In Robin's view
Rather than calling "Whitebeard the Second." and "Golden Lion II." "comrades" of the Storm Pirates.
Rather, it would be more accurate to say that the two of them are "allies" of the Storm Pirates.
Just as Robin and Nami were quietly discussing the two bounty posters.
A commotion arose outside the castle.
"I'm exhausted! I'm so tired!"
Ace charged straight into the castle like a ball of fire, shouting as he ran.
"Is there any food or drink?"
"Damn Ace!"
Kid followed Ace into the castle hall, his body radiating electromagnetic waves, giving him an imposing presence.
"Stop stealing my food!"
"Where do you two get so much strength?"
Killer was the last of the trio to enter; his hands were trembling, and his voice was weak.
"We were receiving roughly the same training intensity..."
After Storm left.
Bear has been diligently overseeing the training plans of Ace, Kid, and Killer.
Although this exercise plan has not yet yielded results.
However, the gap in "potential"—more accurately, physical potential—between the three members has become apparent.
Ace is the best.
Kid is second.
Killer is last.
After a workout, Ace would be full of energy, Kid would be relatively normal, Killer would be exhausted.
Robin looked at her three companions who had returned to the castle, and she was about to reach out to the food and drinks laid out on the table beside her.
But before she could speak...
Having already smelled the aroma, Ace was the first to rush to the table, grabbing a piece of grilled meat and stuffing it into his mouth.
Kid followed closely behind, squeezing next to Ace and waving his hands around, grabbing at the food and drinks around them.
The last Killer, dragging his heavy steps, walked to the two of them, his trembling arms seemingly too weak even to hold cutlery.
But seeing the food dwindling, Killer finally mustered his last bit of strength and snatched food from the mouths of the two hungry monsters.
"You two... leave some for me! Don't eat it all!"
The trio swept through the enemy ranks in a whirlwind.
They ate all the food that Robin and Nami had prepared in advance, leaving nothing behind.
Finally, three round "balloons" appeared in the castle hall.
"He's alive again... snoring..."
"He actually fell asleep? That Ace..."
"Bro, your relationship with Ace is getting better and better, yay yay yay..."
Robin looked at the three immobilized "balloons" and couldn't help but shake his head.
She crossed her arms in front of her chest and unleashed her [Flower-Flower Fruit] ability, taking away all the stacks of plates next to the dining table.
Nami, holding several wanted posters for Golden Lion II, walked over to Ace, Kid, and Killer.
"Look! You might be interested in this."
Ace was still fast asleep, but a large snot bubble had already appeared on his nose.
Kid and Killer were both still conscious, and they both looked at the wanted poster that Nami had brought over.
"Golden Lion II? Isn't that the 'companion' the Captain mentioned before? Wow, that's amazing!"
"One thousand eight hundred, no, one hundred and eight hundred, no, eighteen billion?"
Kid's eyes widened in shock as he stared at the number on the bounty poster.
"By the way, what was the bounty on our Captain's head again?"
"Kid, I advise you not to bring this up in front of the Captain again."
Robin chuckled softly, offering a kind reminder.
"The Captain is quite 'sensitive' to the bounty."
"I'm very sensitive too..."
Kid said with a hint of melancholy.
"But I don't have a bounty yet, not even 100 Beli..."
"Boss Robin."
Killer looked away from the bounty poster and at Robin.
"What exactly did Boss Rhein do to warrant such a high bounty on his head?"
Upon hearing this topic, Kid immediately became interested and looked at Robin expectantly.
If he does the same thing as Boss Rhein, could he also have a bounty of 1.8 billion Beli on his head?
"It's nothing serious."
Robin said softly.
"They only destroyed Impel Down, one of the three major institutions of the World Government."
Kid and Killer had no idea what this meant, but they both said the same thing at the same time—
"Cool~"
Robin looked at the two clueless young men and couldn't help but shake his head.
She pondered for a moment, then stood up, found a secluded spot, took out her Den Den Mushi), and dialed her Captain's number.
"Moshi Moshi, Captain, did you see today's news? And Mr. Rhein's bounty poster..."
The Calm Belt, 10,000 meters above the ground, Sky Garden.
While resting, Storm received Den Den Mushi from Robin and was immediately drawn to the conversation.
The place he is in now is too "remote".
Neither the World Government nor the World Economic Journal will send faxes or newspapers here.
Storm was completely unaware of the outside reaction.
"What did the news say? Never mind, we'll talk about that later!"
Storm asked the question that interested him most.
"How much is Rhein's bounty? Is it over 100 million Beli?"
There was a moment of silence on Robin's end, and then a slightly magnetic, mature female voice came from the Den Den Mushi's receiver.
"... Mr. Rhein's bounty is 1.832 billion Beli... Hello? Captain, are you listening?"
"1.8 billion... Hahaha... Ha..."
Storm froze on the spot, as if he had turned into a zombie, his reactions were all dry and lifeless.
Whitebeard the Second.'s bounty was twenty times that of him.
The bounty on Golden Lion II is nineteen times that of him...
Storm was shocked, bewildered, understood, then began to reflect and draw conclusions.
"It must be the world's fault!"
"Huh?" Robin didn't quite understand Storm's reaction. "Captain, what are you talking about?"
"I want this world to feel pain!"
"Storm said seriously."
"Because this is my 'justice'!"
Robin looked at the Den Den Mushi with a puzzled expression. Wasn't this a call to the Captain?
What is he saying?
Snap--
Storm's Den Den Mushi) disconnected.
Nami, who had quietly slipped over to the side at some point, asked with a hint of curiosity.
"Robin, were you just on the phone with the Captain? What did he say?"
"I don't know..."
A rare look of bewilderment crossed Robin's beautiful face.
He said things like "it's the world's fault," "make the world suffer," and "justice," and then hung up the Den Den Mushi.
"I imagine the Captain is busy?"
Storm is indeed busy.
After ending the Den Den Mushi communication with Robin.
Storm then activated his Observation Haki.
It possesses Observation Haki Eight-Star, combined with the diffusion perception effect of the Rumble- Rumble-Rumble Fruit.
This allowed Storm, who was in the Sky Garden, to remotely sense the situation at Impel Down.
So, immediately.
The presence of the Admiral who wanted to slack Impel Down was detected by Storm.
"Kizaru hasn't left Impel Down?"
Storm withdrew his Observation Haki with a strange expression.
His original plan was to launch a surprise attack.
Taking advantage of Kizaru's return to Marine Headquarters, Storm once again donned the disguise of Golden Lion II and returned to Impel Down to "grind monsters" in the Infinite Hell.
But Kizaru hasn't left yet.
Using the alias "Golden Lion II" to deal with Kizaru would be somewhat difficult.
Storm stood up.
The clay armor of the "Edward Teach" covered his body, and endless lightning erupted above the Sky Garden.
Boom!
A deafening thunderclap resounded from the Calm Belt.
Kizaru, who was Impel Down, fishing, drinking tea, and trimming his nails, also heard the thunderous sound.
'No way...'
Kizaru's expression changed slightly. He transformed into a flash of light and arrived directly at the first level of Impel Down's First Sea Level.
Boom!
Another deafening thunderclap exploded.
Edward Teach transforms into lightning and descends from the sky.
"Kizaru, feel the pain..."
