Your 3.8 Billion Beli Is About to Be Delivered

"Admiral Kizaru, I was just about to take Rayleigh's bounty when you arrived. Please take care of him for me."

Luo Wen looked at Kizaru and said with a smile.

"Hiss! You're going to trade him for the bounty?"

Kizaru gasped, saying in disbelief.

The World Government initially treated Roger's crew members with indifference, leaving them alone as long as they didn't cause trouble.

It is precisely because they are powerful, know the secrets of the World Government, and are scattered all over the world that if one of them is captured, the rest will inevitably jump out and cause trouble, creating unnecessary problems for the World Government.

Now that Luo Wen wants to replace Rayleigh with a bounty, won't that cause another major upheaval?

"That's right, I'm a bounty hunter who's friendly to the World Government. Isn't it normal for me to replace Rayleigh with a bounty hunter?"

Luo Wen nodded and said in a serious tone.

Rayleigh, however, didn't believe it at all.

Being on friendly terms with the World Government? Then how did you acquire Conqueror's Haki of the Four Emperors?

That kid is lawless and definitely up to no good!

"Eliminating the most heinous pirates is certainly a great thing."

"But many members of Roger Pirates are still hiding, and even the current Four Emperors Red-Haired Shanks has close ties with them. Are you sure you want to do this?"

Kizaru rubbed his head, feeling a bit of a headache.

Running fast is a mistake too; I should have come slower.

He least wanted to deal with these kinds of troublesome matters.

"He's just a mere pirate, what do I have to fear? Admiral Kizaru, let's exchange his bounty first."

Luo Wen chuckled softly.

Those guys haven't even shown their faces when Roger's son is about to be executed, and they probably won't lift a finger when Rayleigh is captured either.

Even if he had to intervene, Luo Wen was confident he could handle it, and might even gain more treasure.

"Alright, since you insist, I won't say anything more."

"Dark King Rayleigh's bounty is 3.8 billion Beli. This amount is far too large; I need to consult with Fleet Admiral Sengoku."

Kizaru gave Luo Wen a deep look and said helplessly.

3.8 billion Beli is not something even the wealthy World Government can easily come up with.

Soon, news that Dark King Rayleigh had been captured by Luo Wen and was being asked to pay his bounty reached Marine Headquarters and the World Government.

"That old Rayleigh was actually defeated by Luo Wen, and now he wants to pay the bounty?"

Fleet Admiral Sengoku was so shocked that he even plucked out a few hairs from his beard.

Back then, he and Garp chased after Roger, so naturally they had many encounters with Rayleigh.

Rayleigh's strength is absolutely at the Admiral level, without any exaggeration. Even in his old age, with his slippery movements, two Admiral couldn't guarantee they could catch him.

It's truly shocking that he's been captured by Luo Wen.

Moreover, Rayleigh's capture might not be a good thing; those guys who have been hiding for years might just come out and cause trouble.

The ocean, which had been maintaining its balance, will once again become restless.

Thinking about this, the Sengoku couldn't help but feel a headache coming on.

"That's right, he's demanding the bounty immediately. Please allocate 3.8 billion Beli immediately."

Kizaru said casually.

It's definitely better to leave these kinds of headaches to someone else.

"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to set off immediately."

Sengoku rubbed his forehead and hung up the phone.

It's difficult to decide who to send it.

Not only was he responsible for delivering the money, but he also had to escort Rayleigh back with Kizaru.

Akainu is too extreme, Aokiji is hiding in the hospital recovering from his injuries, so he can't find any free time.

"Click, click!"

Sengoku turned his gaze to Garp, who was loudly chewing on a senbei (rice cracker), which was quite fitting.

"Garp, take Beli with you."

He couldn't handle Garp before, but today is different.

"Don't want."

Garp ignored him and continued eating his senbei.

"It seems your grandson has also arrived at the Sabaody Archipelago. If Akainu were to go there..."

Sengoku shook his head, as if he saw a bad picture.

"Holy crap!"

Garp glared at Sengoku, then turned and left the office.

Even a fool could tell that if Akainu went, his precious grandson would be reduced to ashes.

Soon, a Dog-headed Warship carrying 3.8 billion Beli sailed towards the Sabaody Archipelago.

The Five Elders also received the message in time, and the five of them, as one entity, began a meeting.

The capture of the King of the Pirates's right-hand man is a major event that will shake the seas, and they should be on high alert.

"Have the old guard fallen so low? To be caught by a newcomer, how shameful!"

Saint Nusjuro, holding the First Generation Kitetsu in his hand, said disdainfully.

"Heh, after all, they are just ordinary mortals. How can they compare to us who are immortal?"

Saint Saturn swirled his red wine and said, seemingly lost in thought.

This is precisely where their arrogance lies; the storms and waves on the sea are but fleeting ripples.

Only those who exist eternally like them can have the last laugh.

The so-called remnants of Roger's faction are no longer a threat after more than twenty years.

"That's true, but those guys on the high seas are a bit too restless."

Saint Mars was not as optimistic as they were.

Four sea emperors rule over their respective territories, the Revolutionary Army is stirring, and countless new pirates yearn for Laugh Tale.

It seems that the Will of D is particularly active in this era.

Only the Nika Fruit is somewhat reassuring, as there is currently no sign of it Awakening.

"Those restless pirates on the high seas? If the King of the Pirates's right-hand man were publicly executed, wouldn't those laughable guys be so scared they'd wet their pants?"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Saint Saturn laughed loudly.

"Executing Rayleigh will likely cause significant casualties to the Navy."

Saint Mars frowned, somewhat worried.

"Hmph! Even the Navy has developed a rebellious streak; only Akainu is somewhat decent."

"We can take this opportunity to teach them a lesson. We can always recruit more soldiers to compensate for their losses."

Saint Saturn snorted coldly in dissatisfaction, his eyes flashing with a chilling light.

The navy has become increasingly disobedient in recent years, paying lip service to some of the World Government's orders while secretly defying them. It's a good opportunity to purge them.

"Luo Wen, who captured Rayleigh? It seems he now possesses the strength of Four Emperors). How should we deal with him?"

Saint Peter said in a deep voice.

Previously, they had considered him a destabilizing element who needed to be eliminated.

However, Luo Wen now possesses genuine Four Emperors- level strength, and they cannot spare enough resources to deal with Luo Wen.

"As long as he doesn't take action against the World Government, we won't interfere."

"Since he likes fighting pirates, let them fight for a while. It would be best if they fought to the point of mutual destruction."

Saint Saturn said calmly.

A vital fighting force for the World Government, it needs to contend with the Revolutionary Army and the Four Emperors.

To eliminate Luo Wen, at least two Admiral would be needed, but they simply cannot spare them.

Letting Luo Wen continue fighting the pirates would weaken both sides, which is ideal.

"Execute Rayleigh, and ignore Luo Wen. Does anyone have any other opinions?"

Saint Saturn looked around and said in a deep voice.

"Agree!"

I second that!

The other four Five Elders all expressed their opinions.

Unfortunately, they were unaware that Luo Wen had wiped out CP9 and was now at war with the World Government.
