Water Dragon Possession-Black Marlin! Garp's Intuition!

Hancock was looking at him with a face full of admiration, like a fangirl gazing at her idol!

But Hancock said nothing, and Mislanda knew exactly what she was thinking.

"Whoa, this skill is pretty amazing!"

Being able to see through people's minds—this skill was quite impressive!

He would try the next one!

Mislanda closed his eyes again, then suddenly opened them, and then... he froze for several seconds before turning his head away!

Because this time, he had tried X-ray vision!

This skill probably needed no further explanation.

In any case, in Mislanda's eyes, Hancock wasn't wearing any clothes!

Although Hancock was only in her teens and younger than Mislanda, she would become the world's most beautiful woman in the future.

On top of that, she had the enhancement from the Love-Love Fruit.

In any case, this was the first time that vigorous young Mislanda had ever seen such a sight.

Just imagine—a beautiful woman with no clothes on right in front of him, looking at him shyly. Who could possibly endure that?!

"Lord Mislanda, what's wrong?"

Seeing Mislanda acting so strangely, Hancock moved a little closer and asked with great concern.

As she spoke, one of her hands had already touched Mislanda.

Mislanda hurriedly grabbed her hand and then put away the Five Vision Omnipotence.

Phew!

He took a deep breath and calmed the restlessness in his heart!

"Damn it, I actually reacted!"

Mislanda was about to reach adulthood, precisely when he was full of vitality.

And then there was the Dragon Essence!

Although the Dragon Essence had given him a tremendous boost, it also had a minor side effect: dragons were naturally lewd!

Mislanda had been affected by it to some extent.

Every morning, Mislanda felt that the hardest thing in the world wasn't Diamond!

Ahem, he was getting off track!

In any case, what he had just seen had still struck Mislanda pretty hard!

"Don't worry. I'm fine!"

Although the Five Vision Omnipotence had little offensive power, it was still an excellent support ability!

Mislanda was fairly satisfied with the Imperial Arms he had drawn this time.

Next...

Mislanda spun the pointer again!

[ Ding! Congratulations, host. You have obtained the Imperial Arms: Water Dragon Possession—Black Marlin! ]

[ Water Dragon Possession—Black Marlin, a ring-type Imperial Arms made from the organs of an aquatic Danger Beast. It can flexibly manipulate the liquids around it, including seawater and blood! ]

As soon as the system's voice faded, a black ring carved with a dragon's head appeared on Mislanda's finger!

He examined it carefully, then couldn't help feeling delighted.

What did being able to control seawater mean?

Everyone knew that seawater was the bane of Devil Fruit users. Besides, this was the world of pirates, where seawater was everywhere!

In other words, every Devil Fruit user would instinctively be at a disadvantage in front of Mislanda!

Of course, that alone wasn't enough to make Mislanda invincible.

After all, seawater wasn't omnipotent. Take Aokiji, for example.

Seawater was completely useless against him!

"Not bad!"

Aside from Romantic Cannon—Pumpkin and Grand Chariot—Mastema, the other four Imperial Arms were all pretty good.

Although he hadn't drawn what he wanted, it was best to be satisfied with what he had!

"Thank you, Hancock!"

Mislanda pinched Hancock's pretty cheek, then stood up and walked toward the seaside.

He was going to test Black Marlin's ability!

Watching Mislanda's back, Hancock touched the spot he had just pinched and couldn't help growing shy again!

Soon, several enormous water dragons appeared along the shore of the uninhabited island!

The Sea Kings in the surrounding waters hurriedly fled, as if they had sensed something terrifying!

Compared to Mislanda's delight, things were going terribly for the Marines!

Marshal Steel Bone Kong had just lain down to sleep when a call from the World Government came in!

They said that the slave prison had been destroyed and that over ten thousand slaves had all been freed.

The World Government demanded that the Marines mobilize immediately. On one hand, they had to recapture the slaves; on the other, they had to capture the person who had freed them!

After receiving this order, Steel Bone Kong took quite some time to recover from his shock!

Someone had actually dared to do such a thing? That was tantamount to rebelling against the Celestial Dragons—it was like slapping the World Government directly in the face!

Who could be so audacious?!

After getting a general understanding of the situation, Steel Bone Kong immediately summoned Sengoku and the others.

When they heard the news, everyone was equally horrified!

The Marines also disliked the Celestial Dragons keeping slaves, but they didn't dare to intervene!

Yet someone had actually done it!

"Marshal Kong, if the Marines capture the slaves, our reputation...!"

Sengoku said with some concern.

He firmly believed that if the Marines did this, their reputation would plummet within three days!

The Great Pirate Era had only just stabilized somewhat. If something went wrong with the Marines at this point, the consequences would be severe!

"I know. That's why we'll focus our efforts on the mastermind this time. As for the slaves...!"

"If they're pirates, bring them back. As for everyone else, let them go."

"Yes, sir!"

The Marines were caught between both sides, so this was all they could do!

Just as Sengoku was about to carry out the order, Marine hero Garp suddenly walked in.

Seeing Garp, Steel Bone Kong and Sengoku both froze for a moment.

Because Garp had repeatedly refused to become a Marine admiral, he usually didn't come to see Steel Bone Kong. Every time they met, Kong would bring up the matter of becoming an admiral!

"Garp, is something wrong?"

Steel Bone Kong rubbed his forehead and asked with a headache.

At present, the Marines had two admirals: Buddha Sengoku and Zephyr the Black Arm.

Zephyr had retired because of family reasons and was currently serving as the Marines' chief instructor.

In other words, Steel Bone Kong only had one capable subordinate at the moment: Sengoku.

If Garp became a Marine admiral, Steel Bone Kong would have a much easier time, but that man simply refused!

Faced with Steel Bone Kong's question, Garp didn't waste any time. He directly placed a photograph on the table.

The photograph showed a man dressed in black, apparently around twenty years old!

It was none other than Mislanda, whom he had encountered not long ago!

"Marshal Kong, I have a feeling that this person is connected to the slave prison incident!"

Hearing this, Steel Bone Kong picked up the photograph and examined it.

He frowned.

"Isn't this the person you mentioned last time? Do you have any evidence?"

"No!"

Garp shook his head.

"But this person is definitely not ordinary. A young man actually knew about God Valley!"

Steel Bone Kong shook his head.

Garp had told him about this before.

But Steel Bone Kong only thought it was a coincidence. There was no direct evidence!

"Garp, we'll talk about this person later. I'll ask the World Government to keep a closer eye on him!"

"The most important thing right now is the slave prison incident. If we don't resolve it quickly, not only will the Marines' reputation suffer, but it will also be difficult to explain things to the World Government!"
