"Admiral Sengoku!"
"The Shane Pirates' Black Pearl is drifting inexplicably out at sea, but their entire crew is stationed at the port!"
"Something is wrong. Should we have the Marines move in first?"
One man stepped forward to analyze the situation, and another followed close behind.
"Admiral Sengoku!"
"According to the latest intelligence from the island..."
"The Celestial Dragon Saint Jiyin is dead!"
Just as he had expected!
Sengoku knew Shane had the strongest urge to kill!
They should have rooted him out back at God Valley. Things had only reached this point because they had lacked the resolve, allowing him to grow beyond their control!
"A Celestial Dragon is dead, and he was killed in public. The chances of concealing this are already extremely low."
"But we absolutely cannot let this go!"
Sengoku directed all the warships, assigning some to land, others to open fire directly, and still others to remain at sea, ready to pursue or provide support at any moment.
His brows were tightly furrowed, but he did not care about the death of a Celestial Dragon.
The adjutant watching beside him was frantic, patches of cold sweat beginning to form.
"Admiral Sengoku! A Celestial Dragon is dead! A Celestial Dragon has been killed in the Sabaody Archipelago!"
"Has Shane gone mad? If the Celestial Dragons call him to account, he'll be smashed to pieces!"
As far as the adjutant knew, daring to kill a Celestial Dragon essentially meant having nowhere left to hide.
It was practically suicide!
"I know."
Sengoku was utterly dismissive.
Killing a Celestial Dragon?
It would have been surprising if Shane had not done it.
As for being hunted down or facing a Buster Call...
Had he not experienced those before?
