Just as Dunn had initially envisioned, as the Hunter Guild's reputation spread, the first group to actually join were the Pirate Hunter hunted pirates all over the sea for bounties.
Then, these Pirate Hunter became even more active than before.
Furthermore, through the Hunter Guild, many Pirate Hunter have gathered together and are able to deal with some formidable pirate crews.
This kind of thing has happened quite a few times in Paradise and Four Blues.
Without Dunn, the Navy would naturally have welcomed this outcome, and might even have encouraged or incorporated it into their ranks.
But now, with Dunn's presence, the Hunter Guild is a large, independent organization.
Although it appears large in scale now, it is still quite superficial, but the Hunter Guild is developing extremely rapidly.
" The Hunter Exam six months from now might be a crucial point in time."
"I am Tsuru," said Vice Admiral Tsuru, looking at Sengoku.
"That's true. Morgans must be connected with Dunn. The fact that the World Economic Journal the Hunter Exam so seriously means Dunn must value this matter highly."
The Sengoku period nodded.
Judging from the current situation, Dunn hasn't fully committed himself to the Hunter Guild yet.
This is quite obvious.
Perhaps this situation will change after the Hunter Exam.
"What did the World Government say?"
Vice Admiral Tsuru looked at Sengoku and asked.
" The World Government is now very wary of Dunn; the Mary Geoise incident has made them hesitant to act rashly."
The Sengoku shook his head.
This is the first time I've seen World Government so wary of a single person.
Even when Whitebeard was said to possess the power to destroy the world, the World Government did not show such fear or concern.
Given their formidable individual combat abilities, it's understandable that the World Government is wary of them.
"In this way, the longer it goes on, the more obvious our disadvantages will become."
Vice Admiral Tsuru sighed.
We can't expect Dunn to suddenly disappear.
As long as Dunn exists, the World Government can't stay like this forever.
It's obvious to anyone with eyes to see that the Hunter Guild is growing rapidly, and if it's not curbed, it will definitely threaten the World Government and the Navy's control over the world in the future.
The situation will be even worse then.
"But they were afraid Dunn would go to Mary Geoise again."
Sengoku certainly understood what Vice Admiral Tsuru meant, but there was nothing he could do about it now.
Until a way is found to deal with Dunn, all actions taken against Dunn must be extremely cautious.
In fact, both Sengoku and Vice Admiral Tsuru had some idea of what would happen in the future.
Ultimately, the World Government will likely be unable to tolerate the threat posed by Dunn, or the Hunter Guild's control over the world will weaken, leading to a fierce conflict.
But being able to conceive of it is one thing; whether one can make up one's mind to detonate it before it happens is another.
The main reason is that the World Government cannot afford the consequences of Dunn's return.
As for Dunn, the Hunter Guild may have cost Dunn a lot of effort, but if the Hunter Guild is destroyed now, as long as Dunn is still alive, the Hunter Guild will be rebuilt very quickly.
That's the difference.
It's like the feeling of being barefoot and not afraid of those wearing shoes.
Just then, the Den Den Mushi in front of Sengoku rang.
Sengoku answered the call with a serious expression.
After a moment, Sengoku let out a sigh of relief.
" Dunn left Sabaody Archipelago. His goal this time seems to be to bring Boa Hancock back, not Mary Geoise."
"He's so flexible; he can go wherever he wants anytime."
Vice Admiral Tsuru said helplessly upon hearing this.
"That's true, but that's good. We must speed up the large-scale recruitment plan. The current pace is too slow. We need to recruit talented new recruits and those hidden masters before the Hunter Exam."
"It is Warring Sengoku period," said the speaker.
"Yes, this is being done, but regarding funding, you need to continue urging the World Government; they don't seem very willing to spend the money."
Vice Admiral Tsuru reminded him.
Speaking of this, Sengoku was also extremely troubled. After waving his hand to let Vice Admiral Tsuru leave, Sengoku dialed Den Den Mushi, preparing to ask the World Government for money.
Mary Geoise.
Half of the Holy Land was destroyed by Dunn's single strike, resulting in countless deaths and injuries, but the Celestial Dragon did not leave the remaining half of Mary Geoise.
After all, according to the prophecy, this was the place where they could survive.
Besides, there's no better place than here.
Now, the Celestial Dragon, who previously swaggered around the world relying on their status, are genuinely afraid to go out these days.
Besides Dunn's stab, another reason was that after the Mary Geoise incident, the Celestial Dragon who were outside were also attacked.
And it wasn't just one; almost all the Celestial Dragon were outside were attacked.
Because the Celestial Dragon went out were accompanied by many bodyguards, the casualties were not significant.
This situation made the other Celestial Dragon even more afraid to go out.
They're all holed up in Mary Geoise now.
Among the Room of Flowers.
Im was looking down as if thinking about something, suddenly looked up.
Gunko, who was waiting for orders in Mary Geoise, was instantly taken over by the body.
She suddenly stood up, startling the members of the God's Knights around her.
But after seeing Gunko's eyes, they all stood up.
Lord Im has descended upon Gunko.
Then, a terrifying and powerful Conqueror's Haki erupted from Gunko's body.
Under the oppressive force of this terrifying Conqueror's Haki, the surrounding members of the God's Knights retreated in fear.
What's wrong, sir?
Then, Gunko's body simply vanished.
The Edge of Mary Geoise.
Dunn stood there, looking at the massive canyon he had carved out with a single stroke of his sword.
Looking towards the other side of the canyon from here, it has become blurry to the naked eye.
The mountain walls on both sides of the canyon are covered with crystals and glass, as well as glass and obsidian filled with impurities.
It shone brightly in the sunlight.
Dunn naturally sensed the Conqueror's Haki erupting from Mary Geoise behind him.
He didn't turn around until a pentagram magic circle appeared on the ground behind him, and Gunko's body was teleported over. Only then did Dunn speak.
"Don't be nervous, I'm just passing by."
Behind him, Gunko continuously unleashed that terrifying Conqueror's Haki.
The solid ground cracked and spread in all directions due to the burst of Conqueror's Haki.
"You actually dare to come here?"
Gunko spoke, seemingly threatening Dunn, but she didn't make a move. Instead, she walked to a short distance away from Dunn.
"Why wouldn't I dare? Besides, if I wanted to come, could you stop me? Or are you saying those five guys could stop me?"
Dunn tilted his head and watched as five enormous Mythical Zoan monsters approached.
Gunko remained silent upon hearing this.
The Five Elders, now in their beast form, appeared in the distance, watching Dunn and Gunko standing not far apart, seemingly with no intention of making a move.
The Five Elders looked at each other in bewilderment.
What's going on?
