This is insane!
Sengoku and Tsuru's expressions changed drastically in an instant.
They knew perfectly well that Garp was now a powder keg, ready to explode whoever was in it.
Akainu deliberately brought up a sore spot.
That would be suicidal!
" Akainu, you're asking for it!"
Boom!
Garp roared, and the anger that had been building up for days exploded like a raging tide.
The naval soldiers stationed there turned pale instantly.
Even Akainu and Kizaru's expressions showed a hint of seriousness.
As Admiral, they are hailed as the strongest fighting force.
However, the pressure exerted by Garp, the legendary naval hero, was even more terrifying than when he challenged Sengoku.
A slight misstep could cost you your life.
" Garp, stop right now! This is Marine Headquarters! Don't go crazy!"
Sengoku hurriedly stepped in front of Garp to persuade him.
Crane, standing nearby, was also on edge, ready to strike at any moment and subdue Garp.
"Don't worry, Sengoku, I know what I'm doing."
Garp glanced coldly at Akainu.
"I have great confidence in my grandson. He not only possesses the qualities of Admiral, but is also the future Marine King. He cannot be understood by those with shallow minds."
Marine King?
A hint of disdain appeared on Akainu's face, and he snorted coldly with a gloomy expression.
"I'd also like to see what the future Marine King is like."
"However, the longer someone is missing, the lower their chances of survival will be. Five days have already passed, so I advise Vice Admiral Garp to prepare himself mentally."
" Akainu, shut up!" Sengoku roared.
"If there's nothing else, get back to your office right now. Say less, and no one will think you're mute."
Faced with Akainu's blatant attempt to extort money, Sengoku would have almost lost his temper and slapped him twice if he hadn't been mindful of his status.
He knew perfectly well that this was Akainu's deliberate attempt to intimidate him.
"Don't worry, Fleet Admiral Sengoku. I came here to see what kind of person your so-called ' Marine King' really is. Now that he can't even come back, there's not much use for me staying here."
Akainu left after saying those words.
Kizaru, standing nearby, also gave a lewd smile and followed.
"Excuse me, Admiral Sakazuki, if this is your way of showing off, then I, Bai Yu, am here to cause trouble."
A soft sound suddenly rang out.
The familiar tone of voice startled Carina and the others at first, but they quickly broke into ecstatic joy.
Even Garp was no exception.
"Little brat, where are you? Come out and let Grandpa see you."
Garp hurriedly looked around.
However, after looking around, Bai Yu was still nowhere to be found.
"Look, it looks like something is falling from the sky."
Someone exclaimed in surprise.
Everyone's nerves tightened instantly, and they quickly looked up at the sky.
Boom!
The booming sonic booms were almost incessant.
The first thing that catches the eye is the figure shrouded in a golden skull.
Under the astonished gazes of the crowd, it plummeted down with immense force, like a meteorite.
"Get out of the way quickly."
The Warring Sengoku suddenly awoke with a start the Roar urgently.
Bang!
The plaza collapsed instantly, and spiderweb-like cracks spread out in an instant.
A violent shockwave swept across the entire area.
Those naval soldiers who couldn't dodge in time were thrown back by the blast wave.
Faced with the sudden air attack, even Akainu, Kizaru, and the others couldn't help but use their Elemental Transformation to evade it.
However, at this moment, everyone's eyes were unanimously fixed on the center of the ruins.
They were eager to find out whether the person who fell from the sky was Bai Yu or Kaido of the Beasts.
This almost suicidal way of making an entrance was too shocking and outrageous.
The sand and dust that filled the sky were dispersed by the sea breeze.
Bai Yu, carrying a wine jug, walked out of the ruins.
His unscathed appearance left many people gasping in astonishment.
"It's Bai Yu, Vice Admiral Garp's grandson. He actually came back alive."
"Is this a monster? It crashed down from the sky with such a massive impact, yet it emerged completely unharmed. This kind of skill is somewhat reminiscent of Kaido of the Beasts."
"I heard that the last time Kaido of the Beasts came to headquarters to commit suicide, it was under similar circumstances."
The scene erupted into chaos.
The sudden scene before them completely overturned their understanding.
Especially considering the mocking words spoken by Akainu and Kizaru earlier, many people subconsciously looked at the two Admiral.
I wonder what their expressions are like now.
Sengoku also stole a glance, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then quickly walked up and said.
"Kid, it's good that you're back. Garp almost turned the Marine Headquarters upside down because of you."
"Now that you're at headquarters, it's time to put on the agenda the matter of Onigumo and Garp recommending you for the position of Admiral Candidate."
"If 70% of the people at headquarters approve, you will be recommended to become the youngest Admiral Candidate in the history of the Navy. With a little effort over a few years, you might just find yourself a place among the Admiral."
As someone from the same old era, Sengoku knew very well the extent of Golden Lion's strength, coupled with the difficulty of dealing with the Float-Float Fruit.
Bai Yu was able to escape from him.
That alone is enough to demonstrate that he is different from others.
"Hmph, Admiral isn't easy, but to escape with your life from the Golden Lion is certainly something to celebrate."
Akainu spoke coldly.
However, no sooner had these words been spoken than a figure hurriedly squeezed through the crowd and rushed directly to Bai Yu's side.
Looking down at the two old swords on the ground, which Bai Yu had stepped on, he quickly flipped through the illustrated guide in his hand.
" Isuka, what happened? This isn't a suitable occasion for you."
Smoker transformed into smoke and appeared beside Isuka.
Everyone knows that this is a covert contest between the upper echelons of the headquarters.
Those lieutenants and second lieutenants were nothing more than cannon fodder.
Ignoring Smoker's advice, Isuka looked at the encyclopedia in her hand, compared it with the encyclopedia again and again, and then screamed in terror.
"Bai, Bai Yu, are those two Famous Sword you're standing on the feet of the Flying Pirates Admiral, Golden Lion Shiki's Famous Sword, Oto and Kogarashi?"
The Golden Lion's Sword?
Everyone present was stunned.
Veterans like Sengoku and Garp were especially on edge, and immediately looked in the direction of the sound.
The first thing they saw made their pupils contract, and their eyes almost pop out of their sockets.
Seeing the two swords Bai Yu had used as stepping stones, Sengoku asked in a trembling voice.
"Yes, it really is Golden Lion's Oto and Kogarashi! How did they end up in your hands? What happened to Golden Lion?!"
"These two knives?"
Bai Yu took a swig of wine and said helplessly.
"These two knives used as stepping stones are, in a way, the keepsakes he left me!"
