Water 7

"Caw!"

The raven on Carl's shoulder looked at the water meat in front of it and let out an eerie cry, using its crimson eyes to crazily hint at Carl, and Bulu also turned its head over, drooling.

Carl, who had just won five million Beli, shouted magnanimously to the boss, "I'll take all this water meat."

The slightly plump female boss's face lit up with joy, "Mm-mm, officer, please wait a moment, I'll pack it up for you right away!"

Eating the water meat, drinking the special beverage, and looking at the unique scenery, Carl couldn't help sighing that the life of the Marines was just like this, plain and simple yet boring.

"Galley-La Shipyard?"

Looking at the name of this shipyard, Carl fell into deep thought. It seemed Iceburg had not yet merged the shipyards of Water 7, and those CP9 guys naturally wouldn't be working undercover here.

Buru-buru~

"It's me, Carl."

"Colonel, pirates have landed on Scrap Island, but it's not the Blazing Pirates."

"Whose crew are they? Judging by the Jolly Roger, they should be the White Wolf Pirates, and the captain is White Wolf Wolf, with a bounty of 43.5 million Beli."

"I'll be right over, keep an eye on them."

"Yes, sir."

Carl stroked the raven on her shoulder and said softly, "It's up to you!"

The raven nodded and flew into the sky, its form gradually growing until it was the size of a water buffalo. Carl nodded with satisfaction and used Geppo to get onto the raven's back.

"Let's go!" "Caw!"

The raven carried Carl to fly over Water 7, and soon arrived at Scrap Island. Seeing the pirate ship docked by the coastline, Carl patted the raven's head.

"Right here, fly down!"

Scrap Island.

"Boss, is this Water 7? What a bustling place! It must be very rich here, right?"

Captain Wolf slapped his underling's head in exasperation, "Idol, we came here to get a new ship, not to cause trouble!"

"In case we draw the Marines, how are we supposed to run with this broken ship?"

The underling covered his aching head and quickly said, "Right, right, the boss is wise."

Wolf then nodded with satisfaction, greeting his subordinates to land on Scrap Island, preparing to enter Water 7 in a low-profile manner.

"Boss! What is that in the sky?" "It's an eagle, a black eagle?"

Wolf reached out to block the sunlight, squinting as he looked up at the sky.

"No, there's someone on it. Everyone, on high alert!!!"

"Caw!"

The raven began to lower its altitude, and at about thirty meters high, Carl jumped down from the bird's back, landing with a thud in front of this group of vigilant pirates.

"Captain White Wolf Wolf, bounty 43.5 million Beli; Vice Captain Black Wolf Daff, bounty 18 million Beli. I am here to inform you in the name of the Marines."

"You are surrounded, surrender!"

Wolf was startled in his heart and hurriedly looked around, only to see nothing at all. Everywhere was debris, where were any Marines?

"Boss, there are no Marines around, she's bluffing!"

"Damn Marine, kill her!"

The subordinates behind Wolf raised their guns one after another, aimed at Carl, and pulled the triggers without hesitation.

"Bang bang bang~"

Clang clang clang~

Carl couldn't be bothered to twist and turn to dodge bullets, so she simply used Armament Haki to cover her entire body, blocking these bullets.

"Th-this is what kind of ability, she can actually block bullets?"

Wolf was terrified. Ignorant as he was, he didn't even know what Haki was, simply assuming Carl was a Devil Fruit user just like him.

The other pirate mobs were naturally also confused, only feeling that Carl's strength was unfathomable. Even their best guns couldn't harm her, so just how strong must she be?

"How impolite!"

Carl slowly extended her right hand, and the raven landed on her hand, transforming into a pitch-black longsword whose guard featured lifelike wings.

"Ready to die? Pirates?"

As the words fell, Carl slashed horizontally with her sword, and a massive golden Flying Slash swept toward the members of the White Wolf Pirates.

White Wolf Wolf instinctively dropped to the ground, but the others were not so lucky.

Only the sounds of screams were heard, as the standing pirates were split in two, along with the pirate ship docked behind them which was also sliced apart, its upper half slowly sliding into the sea and splashing up a patch of water.

"No! No, my men!"

Seeing the tragic scene behind him, Wolf shouted in grief, his gaze toward Carl filled with horror. If not for his beastly intuition saving his life just a moment ago, he probably would have ended up just like his subordinates.

"Oh, you really live up to being the captain! You truly have a few tricks up your sleeve. Aren't you a Devil Fruit user? Show me?"

"Don't look down on people, Marine! Underestimating me is going to cost you!!!"

"Awooooo~"

Wolf roared angrily, transforming into an imposing giant white wolf, his green eyes gazing at Carl without any emotion.

"I'll eat your meat and drink your blood to avenge my brothers! Go to hell!"

Carl smiled faintly, her figure abruptly vanishing as she appeared right in front of Wolf and slashed down with her sword.

"Ahhhhh~ It hurts like hell!"

Wolf's body fell uncontrolled to his knees because his two front paws had been severed by Carl.

"I am Carl, a colonel at Marine Headquarters. You have been arrested!"

Just a plain old zoan ability user, only fit to be instantly defeated in front of Carl. She had to admit that the raven blade was indeed fantastic, in her eyes losing nothing to a Great Grade Sword.

"Moshi-moshi, the pirates are done, you guys can come over!"

After notifying the Marines, Carl waited in place, watching the blue sea and unable to help herself from unleashing a few more Flying Slashes to see just how far they could fly.

Watching several Flying Slashes vanish from sight, Carl couldn't help shaking her head—too far, impossible to calculate the distance.

At this point, the Marine soldiers stationed near Scrap Island had already rushed over. Although many of them had already seen it through telescopes just now, walking up close still made them feel somewhat sick to their stomachs.

Everywhere was covered in blood and severed limbs, and their gazes toward Carl carried an extra trace of fear. Colonel Carl looked quite amiable, but she showed no mercy whatsoever to pirates, and was even cruel.

"Colonel, th-this is all your doing?"

Carl shrugged. "Otherwise? Arrest that guy. Right, he's an ability user, remember to put Seastone handcuffs on him."

"Yes, sir!"

Nelson's expression turned serious, and he hurriedly called out to the soldiers to subdue Wolf and take him away.

"Sir, what about this pirate ship and the corpses?"

Carl patted Nelson's shoulder and said, "You're already a mature Marine, you need to learn to handle problems on your own."

With that, Carl swaggered toward Water 7, continuing the music and the dance.

Nelson was stunned at first, but then became extremely excited. Colonel Carl actually trusted him this much, so he must never let down Colonel Carl's trust.

"You guys, go throw these pirate corpses into the sea!"

"You guys, quickly gather the loot before the pirate ship sinks!"

"Yes, Deputy Commander Nelson!"
