On the other hand, it is dozens of nautical miles away from the Marine Headquarters.
A warship sped forward, cutting through the waves, and on its bow deck stood five figures.
Besides Sengoku, Garp, Kizaru, and Akainu, there is also Ryokugyu, who is also one of the newly promoted Admiral.
As Logia Wood-Wood Devil Fruit User, Ryokugyu should have shone brightly within the Marine Headquarters.
Unfortunately, no one expected that this would happen so soon after he took office as Marine Admiral, before he had even had a chance to settle into his seat.
Ryokugyu's luck has undoubtedly been terrible.
It was for this reason that when Garp relayed Bai Yu's exact words to Sengoku...
Sengoku couldn't bear to part with it and brought Ryokugyu along.
After all, the main reason for Ryokugyu's significantly weakened strength lies with the Marine Headquarters.
If Bai Yu really has a way to give them new power, then Ryokugyu absolutely cannot be treated unfairly.
Otherwise, it would further demoralize the already unsettled Marine Headquarters.
Bai Yu's sudden suggestion temporarily put aside Sengoku's plan to go to the Holy Land Mary Geoise to seek justice.
Having personally witnessed the Marine Headquarters' collapse plan, Sengoku clearly understood that he had to reclaim the justice that belonged to the Marine Headquarters in the Holy Land Mary Geoise, in front of the Five Elders.
Strength is now absolutely indispensable.
call!
As the island's outline gradually became clearer, Sengoku exhaled a deep breath and gripped the railing at the bow of the ship tightly.
Akainu, Kizaru, and the others standing behind them also narrowed their eyes slightly, a hint of inexplicable urgency appearing in them.
As the saying goes, when a person has something, they may not know what it means to cherish it.
A person only realizes the importance of something when they truly lose it.
Now, having lost Magma Devil Fruit and the Glint-Glint Fruit, he has personally experienced the deadly trap Marine Headquarters.
They are even more eager to get it.
"We've arrived. On the deserted island ahead, there's a tower. Bai Yu said it holds power. Hmm, I think that's what he said."
After pouring all the senbei in his hand into his mouth, chewing and swallowing them with a smacking sound, Garp said somewhat guiltily.
Sengoku's cheek muscles twitched uncontrollably, and he kicked Garp in the Garp, the Roar angrily.
"You damn bastard, what do you mean by 'seems'? People say that someone with a beard on their lips is reliable, but you're not trustworthy at all."
"Alright, let's go ashore and take a look first. If we still can't figure it out, we can bother Bai Yu then."
As they spoke, the fast-moving warship dropped anchor at the closest point to the island.
roar!
A series of roars suddenly rang out.
The once relatively calm sea was suddenly overtaken by dozens of Sea Kings.
Garp raised an eyebrow, a hint of surprise in his expression, but his fist was already covered in jet-black Armament Haki.
Without a single fancy move, a punch landed squarely on his face.
Boom!
The Sea Kings that pounced on them was instantly shattered by a single punch.
As it turned into a sky full of blood and debris, scattering across the sea, the sea was still torn open, creating a giant chasm that stretched straight to the horizon.
By the time everyone realized what was happening, the surging seawater around them had already rushed back in.
The seawater poured down from the sky, landing on Sengoku, causing him to frown.
"What's going on? The waters near Marine Headquarters should have been cleared of Sea Kings long ago. Even if Sea Kings appear, they're usually handed over to some Marines for practice. How come there are more than a dozen Sea Kings here now?"
Sea Kings territorial monsters with a strong sense of ownership over their seas, and they place great importance on their territory.
If any ordinary alien creature were to trespass into their territory, it would be met with a frenzied slaughter.
This is the truest reality of the law of the jungle.
At the same time, they also know which sea areas they cannot roam and which sea areas are strictly off-limits.
In areas like the Marine Headquarters, spanning dozens of nautical miles, it is common for Sea Kings to be killed.
The Sea Kings that roam the ocean should have already drawn a blank territorial sea line here.
These Sea Kings have always understood this principle and have never set foot in this horrible place.
Unfortunately, what they were seeing now completely overturned their understanding.
"Oh, I felt something was off earlier too. I ran into some stupid Sea Kings when I passed by here just now, and I just casually blasted them to pieces with a single punch."
Garp, recalling everything that had just happened, Satori spoke up in realization.
"Could it be that they've forgotten the pain of their past wounds and accidentally wandered here?"
" Garp, are you talking about yourself?" Sengoku glanced at Garp sideways, then waved his hand dismissively.
"Forget it, now is not the time to dwell on this. Let's go take a look at that tower first."
" Ryokugyu, don't mind. If Bai Yu really has a way to help us acquire new power, he definitely won't leave you out."
"Unfortunately, Bai Yu stipulated that Garp must be in charge; otherwise, having you replace this fierce old man wouldn't be a bad thing."
At this point, Sengoku couldn't help but glance at the sea littered with corpses, and a sense of melancholy and sorrow welled up in his heart.
Originally, Sengoku, who possessed the Zoan -Zoan Human-Human Fruit the Buddha Form, was on par with Garp in terms of strength.
Unfortunately, Sengoku, having lost his Devil Fruit powers, has seen his strength decline by more than half from his peak.
Sengoku no longer dreams of something like Garp, who could blast dozens of Sea Kings apart with a single punch.
I just hope that, as Bai Yu said, we can really obtain other powers within this tower.
As the warship came to a complete stop, I looked at the ancient six-story pagoda standing alone on the isolated island, two or three hundred meters away.
Sengoku's brow furrowed slightly.
No!
It should be said that even Kizaru, Kizaru, and Ryokugyu Akainu no exception.
Looking at this ancient tower, which they could shatter with a single punch, Bai Yu claimed could grant them new power.
They were really reluctant to believe it.
" Garp, are you sure you really ran into Bai Yu?" Sengoku couldn't help but ask with a look of suspicion.
"What's wrong? Don't you believe me?" Garp glared at him.
Without hesitation, Sengoku nodded.
"Yes, we'd believe Bai Yu if he said shit smells good, but as for you, forget it."
These seemingly unreasonable words immediately garnered nods of agreement from the other three.
Garp was so angry he nearly pulled down his pants and made them taste his own diarrhea to see if it smelled good.
However, thinking about his usual unreliable behavior, he could only snort, turn around, and leap ashore.
Believe it or not, I'm off!
Seeing that Garp, unusually, didn't refute and simply left after saying a few words, Sengoku breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems to be true!"
