Request for Reassignment
"Scorched earth. An Island that was perfectly fine just a moment ago has been completely reduced to scorched earth."
Then came a chorus of gasps and sounds of terror.
The Island's surface was completely black; buildings, trees, flowers, rivers—all matter had vanished. Only blue arcs of electricity flickered intermittently, sparking bursts of Hotaru.
"Sizzle!"
Suddenly, a bolt of Inazuma tore through the air and reached everyone in an instant.
Then, a figure stepped out from the Electric Flash.
"Vice Admiral Xia Le!!"
A gasp of surprise rang out.
Proche tensed up and instinctively bent over.
Xia Le, who was suspended in the air in front of them and surrounded by Lightning, did not say much. He simply nodded and then disappeared from everyone's sight in a flash of Electric Flash.
Taking a deep breath, Proche looked again at the Island that had been reduced to scorched earth, his heart pounding.
"Thunder God."
He murmured two words, then turned his head, his expression grave.
The relocation of the island's civilians must be done properly!
He's definitely going to cling to this powerful figure!
Screw the World Government.
--
Only about fifteen minutes had passed.
Temporary base in the South Blue.
"What did you say?"
Sengoku suddenly sat up, his face filled with shock.
"Xia Le wiped out Baterilla Island half an hour Vice Admiral!"
The naval officer directly in front of him looked shocked and quickly added more information.
"Countless bolts of lightning descended from the sky, turning everything on Baterilla Island into scorched earth."
"We have already dispatched personnel to inspect that Island."
"But according to the news just sent back, the temperature around the Island has reached over 100 degrees Celsius, making it impossible for ordinary soldiers to get close."
After a pause, the naval officer continued.
"Even the Island's surface, affected by its Devil Fruit Powers, is constantly flashing with explosive Lightning."
"In other words, Baterilla Island has become an island of thunder."
"No longer suitable for anyone to live in."
Upon Wen Yan, Sengoku's expression changed.
After a long while, he slammed his hand on the table, making a loud bang.
"What exactly is this brat up to?"
An order to deal with a pregnant woman ended up Annihilation an entire Island?
Is this a protest?
Where are the people on the island?
After calming himself down, Sengoku asked in a deep voice.
"We have contacted Proche Colonel, who said that the island's inhabitants have been evacuated and relocated to other areas."
At this point, the officer hesitated again.
"Including those pregnant women."
"He also said that he was acting on the orders of Vice Admiral Xia Le."
These words silenced the Sengoku.
After a long while, he finally sighed and sat down in the Chair with a complicated expression.
"That brat!"
"His thoughts are truly complex."
The details of the incident were quickly uncovered.
A look of helplessness and confusion appeared on Sengoku's face.
He understood the meaning behind Xia Le's actions almost instantly.
An invisible demonstration! A silent resistance!
"Those five old guys aren't easy to fool!"
He murmured, Sengoku eyes flashing.
Red Line, Holy Land, Mary Geoise.
Inside the magnificent and dazzling palace.
"To wipe out an Island in one strike and permanently alter its topography and climate."
"His Logia Devil Fruit ability has been developed to its fullest potential!"
"In terms of strength alone, Xia Le has undoubtedly reached the world's top level and is qualified to serve as Admiral."
An aged voice slowly rose, its words filled with profound authority.
"But what if we add his words to that?"
"His intentions are despicable!"
"They can only become tools in our hands, not tools for reuse."
"Even, if necessary."
The conversation ended there.
But its meaning is obvious.
A chilling glint flashed in the eyes of the Five Elders.
After a moment, the Elder with a knife at his waist spoke calmly.
"First, they killed the witness who reported Roger."
"They then relocated all the criminals on the island, scattered them all over the world, and made us completely lose all leads."
"If he hadn't personally arrested Roger, we might even have grounds to convict him of colluding with the enemy."
The other person then spoke up.
"This is a complete and utter disobedience to our orders!"
"And."
"The next strike will wipe out the Island."
At this point, the Elder fell silent.
The power to Annihilation Island in a single blow has already made them take it seriously and feel wary.
"It's a protest!"
"He is expressing his dissatisfaction with our order."
Then came silence.
After a long silence, another person spoke.
"Let's hold off; now is not the time to deal with him."
"This knife needs to be sharpened."
After a slight pause, the Elder narrowed his eyes, a cold glint in them.
"His records seem to indicate his birthplace."
"It's in the West Blue."
"Ohara!"

Chapter 95 Request for Transfer
Ohara.
This Island in the West Blue, which has recently attracted the attention of relevant departments of World Government, is about to cross their bottom line.
"He enjoys high prestige within the navy."
One of them said in a deep voice.
"That's precisely why we can still tolerate him for now."
"But if..."
At this point, the five fell silent again.
Sooner or later, he will have to make a choice.
After a long while, a faint voice echoed from within the palace.
On the other side, the South Blue.
The investigation into Roger's bloodline encountered its greatest obstacle due to Xia Le's sudden island-destroying operation.
But the mission was not over; the navy was still making a final push.
Meanwhile, when the navy arrived at Baterilla Island and saw the flashing arcs of electricity and the charred black restricted area, it caused a great shock within the island.
"This is simply a natural disaster!"
"You can't imagine how shocking that scene was!"
"The entire Island was Annihilation; legend has it that only Ancient Weapon could accomplish something like that!"
"Vice Admiral Xia Le is furious!"
Within the Navy, countless rumors circulated, with some even exclaiming in shock that Xia Le was being called Thunder God.
Shortly afterward, Xia Le's team returned to their temporary base.
Some people heard that the Sengoku Admiral and the Xia Le Vice Admiral seemed to have had an argument that day, but it was quickly resolved.
The search for Roger's bloodline then continued.
However, even after a month of waiting, there were still no new leads.
It was at this time that a statement made by Vice Admiral Xia Le began to circulate within the Navy.
"We wasted so much time and resources on a piece of unsubstantiated information."
"Is the mere bloodline of Roger enough to terrify you so much?"
"This is ridiculous!"
"If Roger's bloodline truly has a future, it will have a huge impact."
"Then I will personally take action and bring him back!"
These words were resounding and powerful, instantly igniting a frenzy among countless naval officers throughout the navy. Coupled with his previous remarks to the world, they also created a new generation of young Xia Le fans.
"Vice Admiral Xia Le is right!"
Even if that information is true, and Roger does have offspring outside the womb, they are currently just a fetus in the womb.
"Would our navy be afraid of a child?"
