Admiral Naito! An Unintended Success

Still putting on an act!

Moria erupted in fury, "You bastard, you're in cahoots with Kaido! Did you think this was some secret no one knew?!"

Kaido?

Hanafuda gave a forced smile, "I did have a past relationship with Kaido, but everyone knows I parted ways with him a long time ago! Otherwise, why do you think the World Government would recruit me as Shichibukai!"

Vice Admiral Momonga's expression was somewhat indescribable.

That's certainly how it appears on the surface.

But doesn't the Navy know the truth?

Hanafuda has always had intricate connections with the Beasts Pirates; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he's an unofficial member of the Beasts Pirates.

However, there was nothing that could be done; the World Government didn't care about this matter, and the Navy didn't have the authority to remove a Shichibukai from the list.

"I won't listen to your bullshit!!"

Moria roared.

Since we can't get revenge on that bastard Kaido for the time being, let's take action against Kaido's good brother!

Let that bastard Kaido experience the pain of losing a comrade too!!

The shadow beneath his feet instantly shot into the sky, coalescing into jet-black spears behind Moria.

"Hey! Moria! What are you doing?!"

Vice Admiral Momonga immediately stepped in front of Moria, shouting, "Don't do anything rash!"

What does this bastard think this place is?

But Moria, consumed by revenge, wouldn't listen to any of this.

One after another, shadowy spears, poised to be unleashed, were about to shoot out.

Vice Admiral Momonga's hand was already on the hilt of his sword.

If we let these guys run wild, where will the Navy's reputation stand?

But then, a hand landed on his shoulder, Naito calmly stepped forward. "Let me handle this, Vice Admiral Momonga."

Naito looked up at the man who was almost three times his height. "Moonlight Moria, I'll only say this once: get back to where you are."

"Die, Hanafuda!!"

As if he hadn't heard a thing, Moria simply activated his ability.

The shadow spear shot out from the sky.

Hanafuda immediately let out a gloating laugh.

Idiot!

With a brain like that, you still want to be enemies with Kaido?

Naito remained expressionless.

Moria is indeed a rather likable character, but unfortunately, Navy Naito is ruthless and incorruptible.

However, if she's so eager to take revenge on Kaido, she could perhaps have Luna make contact with him later.

Laugh!

In an instant, a fleeting afterimage flashed by.

Wherever it passed, the black spears shattered instantly.

Moonlight Moria's expression changed drastically, but it happened too fast!

Before he could even react, a hand had already grabbed the horn on his forehead.

Boom!

Moria's massive body crashed to the ground, Naito, grabbing his horns, slammed his head hard against the earth.

To prevent the ground from being smashed directly, Naito used his Haki to Hardening the ground the moment he landed.

The entire conference room was shaking violently, and the entire headquarters building was also tremored.

"Ugh!"

Moria roared in agony, his face contorted in agony, blood gushing from the back of his head.

"Um?"

Crocodile had been leisurely watching the show, suddenly narrowed his eyes.

Thousand Shadows Naito, that guy!

The speed was so fast that even he didn't have time to react!

In other words, not only Moria, but even if he himself stood opposite this young Marine Vice Admiral, the outcome wouldn't be much better!

"A remarkable young man!"

The World's Strongest swordsman, Dracule Mihawk, smiled.

To possess such strength at such a young age, it probably won't be long before he truly has power comparable to that legendary naval hero!

The Navy has produced another super monster!

Hancock watched Naito's retreating figure, and in her vision, Naito's back was bathed in holy light, making him shine brightly in the radiance.

Ah, Naito, you're so handsome! Just how much more do you intend to make me infatuated with you?

Hanafuda couldn't help but laugh.

However, I was also a little scared. Luckily, I chose to endure it, otherwise I would have been the one lying on the ground.

"You, you bastard—"

Moria, lying on the ground, finally managed to recover from his pain, his bloodshot eyes fixed on Naito standing beside him.

I'll never let you get away with this!

The shadows around him began to stir again.

Wow, that's some serious stubbornness!

Didn't you hear what Naito said?!

Before Naito could even make a move, a figure shot out from behind him and kicked Moria hard in the face.

"Forehead!"

The powerful kick sent Moria flying, his face completely disfigured. His upper body spun around, using his enormous belly as a fulcrum, sweeping across the conference room like a spinning top.

Bump!

Moria's head bumped into a cloud of yellow sand that suddenly appeared, and he came to a stop.

"Hahaha, this is really interesting!"

Crocodile, who was nearly bumped into by Moria, told Moria to stop while watching with interest the icy-faced Pirate Empress stood in front of Naito.

"It seems our Vice Admiral Naito is quite popular with women."

"Ha?"

Hancock instantly turned her attention to him, her eyes icy, her Conqueror's Haki surging. "What do you mean, 'your Vice Admiral Naito '? Naito belongs to me!"

"Guhahahaha!"

Crocodile burst into laughter, "Funny, fun!"

Even Hawk-Eyes couldn't help but chuckle.

Is charisma even more remarkable than talent?

Interesting young people!

Vice Admiral Naito, you absolutely mustn't make a mistake.

The Momonga watched Naito's retreating figure, its feelings a mix of emotions.

"What's all this noise about?!"

A deep voice rang out, and a burly figure walked past the Momonga and strode into the conference room.

"Fleet Admiral Sengoku!"

The Momonga instantly stood up straight.

Naito turned around and met the Fleet Admiral's somewhat strange gaze.

Sengoku glanced at Naito, then at the Pirate Empress blocking his way.

This guy is already the dream lover of all the girls in the Navy, and now even the Pirate Empress has fallen for him?

"Mr. Sengoku."

Naito bowed slightly.

"Thanks for your hard work, Naito."

Sengoku nodded to Naito, then strode directly to the podium in the conference room.

With a loud slam, Sengoku slammed his hand on the table. "Now that everyone's here, I'll get straight to the point."

"Listen up, you scum! You've enjoyed the government's benefits for so long, it's time for you to give back!"

"Golden Lion Shiki, this man's existence has become a threat to Mary Geoise! The government cannot allow him to act with impunity!"

"So, you scum, get out to the New World and help the Navy defeat the Flying Pirates! That's the purpose of this summons!"

Oh, so the target really is the Golden Lion?

Chapter 182 Admiral Naito! An Unintentional Success

Naito stood by the door, watching the Fleet Admiral Sengoku deliver his impassioned speech.

It was predictable that they would target the Golden Lion, but it's still a bit strange.

The Golden Lion was incredibly sleazy; his lair floated in the skies above the New World, truly homeless, and no one knew his location.

What makes the government and navy think they can defeat him in one fell swoop?

If things get bogged down in an endless tug-of-war, the Shichibukai probably won't be happy about it.

As Naito pondered, the Shichibukai also reacted.

"The Golden Lion?"

Dracule Mihawk's lips curled into a smile as he said with great interest, "One of the most renowned swordsmen on the high seas of the last era. It's just a pity, I heard he no longer wields his sword with his hands."

With a slight sigh, the world's greatest swordsman turned his gaze to Naito, "Vice Admiral Naito, you fought against Golden Lion, right? Is that man's sword still sharp?"

Naito glanced at the guy sideways.

To be honest, his aura was unusually strong.
