"You're back!"
His deep voice carried an air of indifference.
However, what everyone saw made them freeze.
That doesn't make sense!
It was completely different from how they had imagined it to be.
In their eyes, Bai Yu and Akainu have a terrible relationship.
Upon meeting, given their differing stances, the two should have immediately engaged in a fierce battle to determine who would live or die.
It's safe to say that no one expected that, under such high expectations, the usually hot-tempered Akainu would utter such a nonchalant remark.
You're back!
The feeling was like greeting a Yuzu returning home, coming from Akainu's mouth, but it felt a little awkward.
" Sakazuki, now that you mention it, I'm not used to it at all. I'd rather you just punch me."
Bai Yu chuckled dryly and tossed the wine bottle in his hand over.
"I've been here for so long, and I haven't had a drink with you yet. Let me treat you to one today."
Akainu's expression froze for a moment, but he quickly recovered, looked at the bottle in his hand, took a swig, and said.
"Normally, I disapprove of your drinking, thinking you're disgracing the Navy's justice regardless of the occasion, just like that old man Garp eats inappropriately. But to be honest, your drink isn't bad, and what you did today didn't diminish the Marine Headquarters ' reputation; you completed the escort mission quite well."
His voice was deep and slightly drawn out.
Everyone was terrified by Akainu's sudden words.
Putting aside how outrageous Akainu's words were.
The fact that Akainu, who has always had an extremely bad relationship with Bai Yu, would actually praise Bai Yu is Big News Morgans.
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, probably not many people would believe that it was real.
" Sakazuki, have you gone mad? Do you know what you're doing? You're Marine Admiral, and this guy is a notorious criminal under the judgment of the Five Elders. Why aren't you taking him down?"
CP0 felt like he was going crazy and started the Roar.
Akainu's expression darkened slightly as he swept his gaze across the scene.
" Momonga, investigate this person's identity. How dare he infiltrate Marine Headquarters? If he doesn't have sufficient identification, arrest him and interrogate him severely to see if he has stolen any important intelligence from Marine Headquarters. If so, kill him without hesitation."
"As for Admiral Bai Yu's charges, I'm sorry, but our Marine Headquarters has not yet received the trial documents, so I cannot arbitrarily take action against a Marine Admiral admiral."
"If the trial documents hadn't appeared before my eyes today, he would still be Marine Admiral."
Everyone was utterly shocked.
Akainu's words clearly caught everyone off guard.
The Momonga was taken aback at first, then revealed a playful smile and strode towards CP0.
The hundreds of soldiers following him quickly caught up.
you!
CP0's face immediately turned pale with anger.
However, looking at these ill-intentioned naval soldiers, he simply couldn't bring himself to speak again.
He could only watch Bai Yu in the distance, staring anxiously.
Seeing that CP0's mouth was completely gagged, Akainu came to his senses.
"Don't worry, today is the last day, I won't harm you. However, you shouldn't have come back here at this crucial moment."
"You should know very well that Sengoku and Garp have high hopes for you. Now that you've come back, and so loudly, even bringing that big-mouthed Morgans along, I'm worried those two old guys might do something rash and go berserk. I don't think you want them to follow in your footsteps, do you?"
Big News Morgans, who was following closely behind Bai Yu and taking photos non-stop, immediately shuddered when Akainu stared at him.
In fact, Big News Morgans, like everyone else, had guessed long ago that Bai Yu was going to the Holy Land Mary Geoise, Five Elders would definitely not let go of this opportunity to eliminate a thorn in their side.
In Morgans ' eyes, the power struggle between the rising Marine Fourth Admiral, War Demon Bai Yu, and the Five Elders was definitely Big News Morgans.
Therefore, half a day before the World Affiliated Nation Conference convened, Big News Morgans had already been waiting outside the Holy Land Mary Geoise.
When Bai Yu returned to Marine Headquarters after killing Nusjuro the Five Elders, he happened to run into this guy.
When faced with what to do next, Bai Yu immediately brought up the Big News Morgans.
After all, compared to the Five Elders ' vast intelligence network, Bai Yu still needed external help to spread the news of the Nusjuro's death throughout the entire ocean.
" Sakazuki, I never knew you had such a cute side."
Bai Yu said with a dry laugh.
However, he quickly noticed Akainu's face darken, and then changed his tune, saying, "No, it should be said, it's a unique aspect."
"However, today is indeed the last time I'm back as a naval officer. Who knows, next time we meet, you might actually punch me."
"There's one more thing I need to do before I leave."
"What needs to be done?"
Akainu's expression darkened slightly, and he said.
"What do you want to do that requires you to come back in person? It would have been safest for you to have left earlier."
"However, I also have a question. Just a moment ago, there were rumors that you had been killed by Nusjuro, but now you have returned alive. I am very curious to know what is the Nusjuro's current situation."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone tensed up, even CP0 members cast anxious glances at Bai Yu.
Bai Yu took a swig of strong liquor and said.
"The thing I've come back to do this time is something only I can do: announce the end of the old era."
"As for the Nusjuro, would you believe me if I said he was dead?"
Is the old era coming to an end?
Nusjuro died?
The scene instantly erupted.
No!
It should be said that at this moment, no matter where they were in the ocean, everyone gasped in shock upon hearing Bai Yu's answer.
For them, it didn't matter whether it was the end of an old era or the death of Nusjuro.
They all possess the significance of shaking the ocean.
However, while many were shocked by the last sentence, they also harbored considerable skepticism.
After all, in most people's eyes, the Nusjuro is one of the Five Elders, possessing a mysterious and unpredictable identity. In this dog-eat-dog world of the sea, he should also possess extraordinary strength.
Now Bai Yu says he's killed him.
This is simply too unbelievable.
"What's wrong? You don't believe me?"
Bai Yu smiled faintly.
"Alright, time for casual conversation is up. Now, let me announce the end of the old era."
After saying this, Bai Yu strode towards the square.
Akainu, who was blocking his way, changed his expression several times before finally stepping aside.
Bai Yu, who returned at this critical juncture, seemed to have no idea what he was up to.
Akainu was equally eager to know how Bai Yu would announce the end of the old era.
