"Ahem, Bai Yu, you're still young. I'll give you this position after I retire."
Garp, feeling a little embarrassed, quickly coughed and said...
"However, besides this old man's position, the most idle people should be Sengoku and the Marine Admiral."
"Don't let Kizaru's frivolous appearance fool you; he's always slacking off. Aokiji, on the other hand, is probably off on his bicycle right now."
"As for the position of Admiral Candidate, it's a bit tough; you'll always have to monitor the Four Emperors and run all over the sea."
"Think carefully before you choose a position. Once you've chosen, you can't resign."
Kizaru's cheek muscles twitched involuntarily.
After all, his superior, Sengoku, was present; he was, after all, Marine Admiral.
Everyone else sees through things but keeps quiet, only that old rascal Garp dares to cause trouble in public.
"Kid, you're not planning to just coast along as an Admiral, are you?" Akainu said coldly.
Bai Yu smiled bloodthirstily.
" Admiral Sakazuki, you really are like a tapeworm in my stomach; I was just thinking the same thing."
"If I could choose, why wouldn't I choose the most comfortable seat?"
Boom!
A scorching heat erupted from Akainu's body.
A murderous aura instantly locked onto Bai Yu.
The floor beneath their feet seemed unable to withstand Akainu's rage and gradually melted into lava.
The naval soldiers who were slightly closer were directly forced back by this blast of air.
Garp is a naval hero and possesses enigmatic strength, which makes even Akainu somewhat wary of him.
Now, a brat he suppressed has repeatedly challenged his authority in public.
Akainu couldn't swallow this insult.
" Akainu, you dare to plot against my grandson? You're courting death!"
Garp's face darkened, and he was about to make a move when Bai Yu stopped him with a reach of his hand.
As they watched the figure emerge from behind the crowd, everyone's nerves were on edge.
They were eager to know how this rising star would deal with the murderous intent emanating from the Marine Admiral.
"Grandpa, this is my matter, leave it to me."
Bai Yu patted Garp on the shoulder, tilted his head back and took a swig of wine, then smiled bloodthirstyly and said...
"What a blessing it is for Marine Admiral harbor murderous intent towards me."
"This is a worthy opponent to be defeated; at least, I can fight him without any scruples."
Boom!
The extreme Spiritual Pressure, mixed with Conqueror's Haki, exploded like a raging tide.
The enormous waves it stirred up shot straight into the heavens.
The dense, leaden clouds were pierced through, as if stirred by a pair of invisible giant hands.
Centered on Bai Yu, the surrounding floorboards shattered, spreading out spiderweb-like cracks.
At that moment, all the naval officers and soldiers on the vast dock seemed to be suppressed by an invisible mountain.
Some naval soldiers with less skill and experience were even more easily exploited.
He foamed at the mouth and collapsed to the ground.
In the blink of an eye, the number reached several thousand!
"This is Conqueror's Haki, and it's even reached the level of causing real damage. In the New World, the only person who can display such Haki is probably Red-Haired!"
The Sengoku's expression changed drastically.
"However, that guy has decades of experience spanning both the old and new eras to have reached this level."
"This kid isn't even twenty years old yet, and he's already reached this level of Conqueror's Haki. His future achievements will definitely be remarkable."
The muttering to himself wasn't very loud.
However, in this context, it sounds extremely jarring.
As the Fleet Admiral of the Marine Headquarters, such an evaluation is probably absolutely true.
" Sengoku, now is not the time to be shocked! Stop these two immediately!" Crane's eyes also flashed with shock as he shouted urgently.
"Everyone, listen up! Immediately treat the unconscious person. Notify those who came to watch the spectacle to retreat completely. They must not step within 10,000 meters, or they will be knocked unconscious by the aura."
Conqueror's Haki has rarely been seen on the high seas.
Within the Marine Headquarters, there isn't even a full complement of Three Admirals.
Only Garp and Sengoku possess it.
Bai Yu is now displaying Conqueror's Haki comparable to that of Red-Haired Shanks.
He planned to take this opportunity to give other naval soldiers a hands-on experience lesson.
" Bai Yu, quickly withdraw your Haki. Let's talk things out slowly," Sengoku said in a deep voice.
" Akainu, you too!"
Originally, when Bai Yu was recommended as Admiral Candidate, Sengoku already suspected that things would not be simple.
I never expected that it would happen in just one month.
Bai Yu's achievements are like a wild horse that has broken free of its reins, completely unstoppable, and he is aiming directly for the position of Marine Admiral.
What's most ironic is that Bai Yu's desire to become Marine Admiral is clearly based on his interest in a slacker.
" Fleet Admiral Sengoku, your suggestion is excellent."
"However, it's better to guide than to suppress. Since Admiral Sakazuki is so angry, why not let us fight it out?"
"A real man solves problems with his fists, and I think Admiral Sakazuki probably shares that same idea!"
Bai Yu smiled bloodthirstyly.
The flames of war have already been ignited.
He had already taken his pants off halfway before telling me his relative was coming.
Such a thing was absolutely unacceptable to Kenpachi Zaraki's bloodlust.
"Kid, that's the most pleasant thing you've said since we met," Akainu said with a frosty expression.
" Fleet Admiral Sengoku, if this guy can last five minutes under my command, I'll admit he's qualified to be Marine Admiral Candidate."
"If he can hold out for ten minutes, I have no objection to your nomination of him as Admiral, provided he survives."
this!
The Sengoku was suddenly speechless.
Garp and Tsuru, who were standing nearby, exchanged a glance and then spoke.
" Sengoku, this is a good idea. Rather than remaining at odds, let's have a good, decisive battle and settle things with our fists."
I agree with Garp's statement.
Sengoku remained silent for seven or eight seconds before letting out a helpless sigh.
"Alright then, since neither of you has any objections, let's decide the victor through combat."
"However, this is a battle that will only last until it's over!"
good!
Bai Yu smiled bloodthirstyly. After saying so much, he could finally start cutting with a legitimate reason.
Looking at Akainu a dozen meters away, he tilted his head back and gulped down a mouthful of strong liquor.
Bang!
The wine pot shattered with a crash, and Bai Yu's domineering Haki exploded once more.
However, this time, compared to before, it was also mixed with the boundless killing intent unique to the Scissor Seven.
Everyone standing in the square felt as if they had been plunged into an ice cellar, a chill running from the soles of their feet straight to their heads.
Almost simultaneously, a thought flashed through my mind.
Just how many people has this young man killed to possess such murderous intent?
Bang!
Bai Yu took a large stride, increasing his speed to the maximum. Using the Shunpo, he traversed more than ten meters, appearing in front of Akainu a step ahead of him.
Akainu was still reeling from the shock of the murderous aura.
Before they could react, the Demon Sword Murasame, gleaming with golden light, had already slashed down at them.
