Pay Raise Secured

"Hehehehe! Hehehehe! Sister! Did you see that? Your brother has avenged you!" Teach suddenly cried out to the sky. At this moment, he was not the Four Blues -renowned Blackbeard, nor the Fifth Emperor of the New World. He was just a brother who missed his sister, nothing more!

"Mr. Sengoku is dead?" Many marines stared blankly at the corpse lying on the ground. They couldn't accept this shocking fact for a moment. The stern yet kind former Fleet Admiral, Mr. Sengoku, had actually died at the hands of Blackbeard!

"Asshole!"

"Kill him!"

"Avenge the Fleet Admiral Sengoku!"

The navy soldiers were enraged; they raised their weapons, determined to tear Blackbeard to shreds!

"Hmph! Want to mess with Deputy Captain Teach? You'll have to get past us first!"

"Brothers, charge!"

"I'll rip the heads off those damn navy bastards and use them as basketballs!"

Compared to the Navy, the pirates' morale soared after seeing Sengoku's corpse! They were all bloodthirsty, making the already elite pirates even more troublesome!

The two groups of pirates clashed, unleashing deafening roars. These elite pirates, facing a Marine who had channeled their grief and anger into power, were instantly engulfed in bloodshed and carnage. The entire battlefield resembled a living hell!

"Damn it! Unforgivable!" Admiral Candidate Momousagi 'Vice Admiral eyes reddened; she couldn't accept the fact that the gentle Fleet Admiral Sengoku was dead! She desperately wanted to go up and kill Blackbeard, but the Big Mom in front of her was an insurmountable obstacle!

"Wow! Sengoku is dead, that's really unexpected!" The Big Mom said with a surprised expression, while effortlessly and completely dominating Momousagi! She looked like a hunter toying with its prey!

"Mr. Sengoku ..." Kizaru was stunned. He quickly distanced himself from Katakuri and the other man. A white light suddenly flashed on his glasses, making it difficult to discern his mood.

The next second, Kizaru suddenly vanished from his spot! Possessing the Pika Pika no Mi, his speed is terrifying! It's the speed of light, something the human eye cannot perceive!

"Smoothie, watch out!" Katakuri's eyes flashed red. With his Observation Haki, which allows him to Future Sight, he managed to see Kizaru's figure a few seconds later!

Upon hearing Katakuri's reminder, Smoothie felt a shiver run through her body, and then a sentence entered her ears!

"Speed is power! Have you ever been Light Kick?"

Kizaru's smug voice rang out, and before Smoothie could react, a sharp pain shot through her head! Instantly, Smoothie's vision rolled back, and she fainted. One of the Sweet Commander had lost her fighting ability!

"Smoothie, little sister!" Katakuri's veins bulged on his forehead, and his body instantly vanished from his original spot, launching an attack on Kizaru by utilizing his mastery of his Devil Fruit!

"Chop!" As a perfect man, Katakuri's attack is naturally not to be underestimated! With powerful force and solid Armament Haki, even Kizaru has to take this attack seriously!

But it's just taking it seriously!

On the other side

"Whitebeard, I'm telling you, Blackbeard must die! He must pay with his life for Sengoku!" Garp was shirtless, his Armament Haki covering his entire body like it was free, making him look like an angry Vajra!

With his formidable physical prowess and a physique that hasn't been diminished by the years, Garp now in no way inferior to Whitebeard in his prime!

"Gurararara! That's my son! I will never allow you to harm a single hair on his head!" Whitebeard tossed his golden hair, his Conqueror's Haki steadily suppressing Garp's aura. Relying on the power of the Tremor-Tremor Fruit, his destructive power far surpassed Garp's!

The duel between the two powerful individuals was astonishing; every punch and every strike was a deadly move! No one dared to approach them, yet even so, the aftershocks of the battle still affected many people to some extent.

"Hehehehe! Borsalino! Long time no see!" Teach's voice suddenly appeared behind Kizaru, startling him so much that he trembled violently. Just as he was about to activate his Devil Fruit ability to escape, he discovered that the Pika Pika no Mi within him seemed to have disappeared. Turning his head, he saw a large hand resting on his shoulder!

"Yo! Blackbeard! Long time no see!" Kizaru forced a smile. Without his Devil Fruit powers, he was like a lamb to the slaughter in front of Blackbeard! Whether he was roasted or boiled was entirely up to the latter!

"Hehehehe! If I remember correctly, it was you who stopped me last time! You agree, Admiral Borsalino?" Teach laughed as he gripped Kizaru's shoulder tightly.

"Great Eruption"

A gush of magma suddenly erupted from the ground, accompanied by a scorching hot fist!

Although the magma couldn't harm Teach, it didn't mean he could ignore the power of the attack! The immense force caused Teach to stagger forward several meters, and at the same time, the large hand that had been on Kizaru's shoulder was pulled away!

"Akainu!"

Teach turned around and saw Akainu standing in front of him, covered in blood. Although Akainu was covered in wounds, there was no fear in his cold eyes!

"Hey, thanks to you, Fleet Admiral Sakazuki!" Kizaru wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. This was definitely one of the most dangerous situations he had ever encountered! No way, I have to get Sakazuki to give me a raise!

As darkness fell, Sakazuki's expression grew increasingly grim.

"Borsalino, let's take him down together!" Akainu said coldly. It was rare for two Admiral to face a single enemy together! But there was no other way; given Blackbeard's strength, Akainu dared not be careless in the slightest!

"Sure, but Fleet Admiral Sakazuki, I'm about to leave work..." Kizaru glanced at his wristwatch, his tone extremely displeased! Normally, he would have already left work by this time!

Akainu:...

"Damn it! This is an emergency, an emergency!" Akainu roared, but Kizaru clearly didn't care!

Akainu: "You are a righteous Marine! This is your duty!"

Kizaru: "But I'm going home!"

Akainu: "He's a vicious pirate!"

Kizaru: "What does this have to do with me getting off work?"

Akainu: "He killed Sengoku!"

Kizaru: "So I've decided to deal with him when I get to work tomorrow!"

Speechless. Akainu is truly speechless! He's supposed to be an Admiral, can't he at least show some backbone?

"I'll be going now if there's nothing else! I'll stall him and deal with him tomorrow!"

"Hahaha! How amusing!" Teach laughed loudly from the side, but suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Akainu!

"I'll give you a raise!"

The air seemed to freeze. Kizaru silently retracted his outstretched leg, and a terrifying aura suddenly erupted from his body!

"How could I possibly accept this? But since the Fleet Admiral has made such a request, I have no choice but to agree! Don't worry! As long as the salary is right, I'll cripple even the Four Emperors!"

Looking at the spirited Kizaru, everyone fell into deep thought...
