"You all need to go into hiding afterward, preferably head to the Grand Line."

Saul said to the group of historians who had already woken up Robin.

"Those books and records!"

A historian looked at the burning island in the distance with heartbreak.

"As long as people are still alive, there will always be a chance to make up for it. If a person dies, then there is nothing left."

Saul spoke in reminder.

"That's right, the World Government will definitely not allow us to live, so everyone will have to hide here and there from now on."

Olvia spoke, pulling Robin into her arms.

Robin, however, kept looking up at the gradually receding Ohara.

"Saul, if I can become as strong as that person, no one will stop me from doing anything anymore, right?"

Saul forced a smile upon hearing this.

But seeing Robin's eyes full of longing, he finally nodded.

"I understand!"

Robin nodded upon hearing this, engraving the figure from just now in her heart.

"Buru buru buru!"

The urgent sound of a Den Den Mushi rang out, and Sengoku snatched it up.

Then the head of the Den Den Mushi gradually transformed, becoming somewhat similar to Kuzan, but with traces of frost on its face.

"Kuzan, has the Buster Call been completed?"

Sengoku didn't notice this detail and asked in a deep voice.

He opposed the Buster Call order issued by the World Government, but you don't truly understand until you become the fleet admiral. After becoming it, he finally realized that the fleet admiral's words didn't carry much weight.

Faced with the Buster Call order issued by the World Government, he could only obey.

"Fleet Admiral, something went wrong. The warships executing the Buster Call were sunk."

As soon as these words came out, Sengoku froze, and only then did he notice the appearance of the Den Den Mushi.

"Sunk? You acted as well? Who was it?"

Sengoku stared wide-eyed and asked anxiously.

"Madman, Lin Ye!"

Kuzan said word by word.

And hearing this name, a flash of confusion crossed Sengoku's eyes in an instant.

Madman Lin Ye?

Wasn't he in the second half of the Grand Line?

Why did he suddenly appear in West Blue?

"Wait, you and Sakazuki are both there, can you take him down?"

Sengoku suddenly remembered that there were two... Vice Admiral Tsuru in Ohara right now, and both were candidates for admiral, Logia ability users.

If they could take this person down, it would be a huge boost to the Navy's prestige.

"Sorry, Fleet Admiral Sengoku, I wish to request reinforcement."

Kuzan's voice carried a hint of helplessness.

"Ah?"

Sengoku was stunned for a moment.

"Very powerful?"

"Yes, very powerful."

Kuzan's voice carried no hesitation.

"I will have Borsalino provide support."

Sengoku said with a solemn expression.

The only one who could provide the fastest support right now was Borsalino.

If they could stall, others would be able to reinforce them.

"Got it!"

"If you cannot defeat him, stall with all your might."

Sengoku said in a deep voice.

"You'd better hurry, Sakazuki's arm was severed."

Kuzan spoke.

Sengoku's heart shuddered, a trace of shock flashing in his eyes.

"I understand."

After hanging up the Den Den Mushi, Sengoku immediately contacted Borsalino.

"Fleet Admiral Sengoku, is there anything you need?"

After the Den Den Mushi connected, Borsalino's lazy tone came through.

"You are to reinforce Ohara immediately. Kuzan and Sakazuki have encountered Madman Lin Ye and are locked in a bitter battle."

Sengoku wasted no words and stated directly.

"Hm?"

The Den Den Mushi stalled for a long moment.

"No way, isn't that guy in the New World?"

Borsalino clearly seemed dazed, as if he didn't understand the current situation.

"Damn it, I told you to reinforce Ohara immediately! It's in West Blue, get over there with the fastest speed possible!"

Sengoku roared at the Den Den Mushi.

"Alright, alright, I understand, former fleet admiral."

Borsalino's voice sounded, and then the Den Den Mushi was hung up fiercely by Sengoku.

Yet before he could even put the Den Den Mushi down, it rang again.

"Sengoku!"

"Commander-in-Chief Kong!"

Hearing this voice, Sengoku's expression turned solemn.

"What's the situation at Ohara?"

Kong, who had become the Commander-in-Chief of the World Government, said in a deep voice.

"We encountered Madman Lin Ye. The fleet executing the Buster Call was completely wiped out. Currently, Sakazuki and Kuzan are fighting Madman Lin Ye."

Sengoku said immediately.

He didn't find it strange that Kong knew about this matter.

After all, the World Government also participated in this Buster Call, or rather, the officials who needed to issue the Buster Call order and control the Golden Den Den Mushi were World Government officials and Cipher Pol chiefs.

"Hm? Madman Lin Ye?"

Kong on the other end was clearly stunned for a moment.

"Yes, it's that person, the one who went to war with Kaido in Wano Country nearly a year ago."

"How did that person get to West Blue? Forget it, it doesn't matter. Can the person be captured?"

Sure enough, upon learning this news, Kong also focused on whether Lin Ye could be captured.

"I've already sent Borsalino to reinforce, but I can't be certain whether we can catch this person. Sakazuki is already injured."

"Capture him with all our might. Dispatch combat power to reinforce immediately. Any top-tier combat power in the vicinity must head over to reinforce and take the man down at all costs."

Kong's tone on the other end was extremely resolute.

"Commander-in-Chief Kong, this..."

Sengoku was taken aback.

"Our analysis indicates that Lin Ye's danger level is far higher than anyone else's. This person once appeared in Loguetown and witnessed Roger's execution.

Only then did he board Gecko Moria's pirate crew. One year—in a mere year, he grew from a rookie pirate to this stage."

Kong's voice was extremely stern.

Upon hearing this, Sengoku's eyes widened further and further.

"Do you realize how dangerous he is now? He must be captured as soon as possible, or even killed."

"I understand."

Hearing this, Sengoku stood up and said to the Den Den Mushi.

"Execute the capture with full force."

Leaving behind just that sentence, Kong hung up the Den Den Mushi.

Sengoku put down the Den Den Mushi, his expression turning grave.

If what Commander-in-Chief Kong said was true, then it was extremely dangerous.

He knew about the World Government's espionage agencies; there were many situations that the Marines hadn't grasped.

Since they attached this much importance to it, it was eighty percent likely to be true.

Sengoku immediately contacted the Marines in West Blue, but unfortunately, other than Sakazuki and Kuzan, West Blue had no other top-tier combat power this time.

There is no time left!

Unless the battle lasts for a dozen days or longer, others will not be able to provide reinforcements in time.

However, could three Logia-class users really fail to take down this man?

Sengoku thought, and contacted Garp directly.

"Ahem, Sengoku, do you need something?"

Garp's voice rang out through the Den Den Mushi, but having been colleagues with Garp for so many years, Sengoku keenly sensed that Garp seemed to be harboring a guilty conscience.

"Garp, what are you up to?"

"Nothing, I'm not up to anything at all."

Garp replied directly.

The more he said that, the more certain it was that he was hiding something, but right now Sengoku could not afford to worry about such things.

"Garp, listen to me, I need you to rush to West Blue at top speed right now; Madman Lin Ye has appeared in West Blue."
