Early the next morning.
Enel had gotten everything ready bright and early.
He stood at the door, waiting for Sakazuki.
He could hardly wait.
Inside, Sakazuki chuckled and walked out.
"Let's go."
"To the 41st Giant Tree."
On the way, Sakazuki pulled one poster from a stack of wanted posters.
He handed it to Enel.
The front listed the bounty, while the back bore an account of their deeds written by Sakazuki.
Enel looked at the account and read it aloud softly.
"The Note Pirates, originally from the South Blue."
"Made up of a group of musicians with considerable fighting strength."
"Their dream is to hold concerts on a world tour."
"..."
"..."
"Recent activities."
"Wiped out the Goa Pirates, who were plundering Windfeather Island."
After reading it, Enel looked up and said:
"Do... do these people count as pirates?"
"They don't seem to have done anything bad."
Sakazuki was about to say something when his Observation Haki suddenly picked up something.
He took out the wanted posters, pulled out another one, and handed it to Enel.
Enel accepted it in confusion and gave it a quick scan.
This Pirates Crew was far more brutal than the Note Pirates.
There were three recorded instances of them slaughtering entire towns.
The number of people they had killed was beyond counting.
Then he heard Sakazuki say:
"Tear it up."
"I'll take you to watch another show first."
With that, he grabbed Enel's shoulder and pushed off the ground, and the two vanished instantly.
Only shreds of the wanted poster remained fluttering in the air...
The 10th Giant Tree.
A burly man four meters tall, dressed in a pirate captain's clothes.
He was running in terror.
The thick collar around his neck and the enormous chains on his feet made it clear.
