"Raigo" Enel

The intelligence officer received a call from outside, and a scream rang out from the Den Den Mushi:

"It's the navy! Three Marine warships are heading towards this island!"

Chapter 189 "Raigo" Enel

"What? The Navy?"

An uproar ensued within the intelligence department.

"There are three warships in total, and on one of them is... Admiral Aokiji!!"

The scream abruptly stopped; the Den Den Mushi Thought Waves was cut off.

The intelligence officers suddenly stood up, looking at each other in disbelief, all seeing panic in each other's eyes.

"What to do?"

"Contact the leader immediately!"

"The leader is not at headquarters. Currently, only..."

Just then, a figure appeared at the doorway. Everyone looked over, as if they had found their pillar of support, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

What happened?

"Chief of Staff Sabo, our liaison officer on shore just reported that three Marine warships have appeared in the near sea, and Admiral Aokiji has been spotted on one of them!"

"What?"

The young man called Sabo frowned, then turned and left without a word.

Upon arriving outside the base, Sabo leaped to the highest point and then took out the binoculars from his waist to observe.

On the distant sea, three warships were lined up in a row, heading towards the island.

Despite the distance and the inability to see the specific situation on the warship's deck, Sabo chose to trust the liaison officer's report.

"Aokiji? Why is Marine Admiral here? Is it a coincidence? Or has he been exposed?"

Neither of these scenarios is good news for the Revolutionary Army.

With all the Army Commanders out on missions and their leader, Dragon, absent from headquarters, the vast Revolutionary Army Headquarters was left with only him capable of fighting.

With that thought in mind, Sabo immediately rolled off and quickly returned to the base.

"Immediately notify the entire Revolutionary Army to prepare for retreat!"

"Yes!"

Soon, everyone in the entire base was mobilized.

The Revolutionary Army had contingency plans in place for the headquarters being exposed, and everyone displayed composure in the face of this crisis.

Take as much as you can with you as you need to, and burn any documents that you can't take immediately; they must not fall into the hands of the navy.

At the same time.

Baltigo, offshore.

The intelligence officer in charge of liaison, holding Den Den Mushi) and maintaining contact, was frozen into an ice sculpture by the power of ice.

Aokiji jumped off the ship and walked across the sea. Wherever he walked, the sea would freeze, forming a walkable ice surface.

"Oh dear... there's something wrong with this island. Why would they station surveillance personnel on a deserted island?"

He walked over to the intelligence officer who was frozen solid, stroked his chin, and examined him briefly.

Does the Seven Deadly Sins have members like this?

Even if they really are the Seven Deadly Sins, they're far too weak... How could the Seven Deadly Sins have such a weak member?

Akainu leaped off the warship and skimmed across the sea.

"Why don't you just interrogate them and find out!"

Before the person even landed, their right hand had already transformed into scalding lava, and they lunged at the ice sculpture.

"You'd better be careful; he's very fragile after I freeze him," Aokiji warned.

Immediately afterwards, a giant magma hand grabbed the ice sculpture and quickly melted the ice on its body.

With a hissing melting sound, the ice on the head was quickly melted by the high temperature.

The intelligence officer gasped for breath, and when he opened his eyes, he saw two Marine Admirals in front of him. His face instantly turned ashen.

His voice was hoarse. "Marine Admiral... Aokiji... Akainu...!!"

"Speak!" Akainu demanded coldly, "Who are you, and why are you monitoring the sea from the shore?"

The intelligence officer gave a bitter smile; he had no hope of surviving and was mentally prepared to die.

Taking a deep breath, he calmed himself and faced the two Admiral with composure:

"Go to hell, you idiot! Want to know? Kneel down and beg me!"

He also wanted to buy some time for the headquarters personnel to evacuate.

Aokiji raised his eyebrows; the more he acted this way, the greater the secret on the island must be... Ordinary organizations couldn't possibly cultivate such loyal subordinates.

But unlike the Seven Deadly Sins, based on his understanding of the Seven Deadly Sins, if a member of the Seven Deadly Sins were caught, their attitude would be even more arrogant.

Akainu sneered, grabbed the man by the neck, and lifted him up.

"Three seconds, I'll count to three, and tell me everything you know."

The intelligence officer felt the intense heat emanating from his neck; his skin was being scorched by the heat, and the intense pain shot straight to his brain.

He screamed in agony, but gritted his teeth and persevered:

Kill me! Kill me now!

"Three... two..."

The countdown suddenly stopped, but Akainu didn't continue. "You want to hear 'one'? Sorry, it seems you're not the die-hard type. Pain can make you abandon your principles."

He changed his strategy, no longer intending to kill his opponent, but instead using high-temperature magma to physically torture him.

A series of images flashed through the intelligence officers' minds.

Everyone who joins the Revolutionary Army stands under the flag and swears an oath never to betray it.

He had believed this before; it was just a matter of death, and the enemy wouldn't get any information out of him.

However, it was too painful. Being tortured by lava all over, watching myself being slowly roasted, and even smelling the aroma of meat, this dual torment of mind and body broke down my mental defenses.

In his dying moments, the intelligence officer abandoned all moral boundaries, pleading weakly:

"Kill me, kill me! I'll tell you everything... This is... the Revolutionary Army... headquarters!"

Revolutionary Army!?

Upon hearing those words, Akainu's power became uncontrollable, and he crushed the intelligence agent to death.

Aokiji asked in astonishment, "The Revolutionary Army? Why would the Seven Deadly Sins be associated with the Revolutionary Army?"

"This place really is a Nezumi hole!"

Akainu sneered, immediately discarding the mangled corpse, and turned to walk towards the island.

"We'll know the truth soon enough!"

[Master, the plan is going smoothly.]

The Navy located Baltigo and successfully rescued the two Celestial Dragons.

Sabaody Archipelago.

Upon hearing the report, Dimon asked, "How is the Revolutionary Army doing?"

[The Revolutionary Army discovered the navy ahead of time and withdrew through a secret passage. To buy time for the others, the Chief of the General Staff single-handedly engaged two Admiral and has since been captured.]

Chief of staff?

Sabo?

This person is sworn brothers with Luffy and Ace. When they were young, due to family reasons, they wanted to go to sea early, but they encountered the Celestial Dragons and their ship was sunk by cannon fire.

Fortunately, he was rescued by a dragon that happened to be passing by, but he lost his memory.

He joined the Revolutionary Army after that, and to this day, he has never been able to recover his childhood memories.

"Sabo has been captured? Is there no one else in the Revolutionary Army?" Dimon was quite surprised.

[There weren't many people in Baltigo at the time, and he was the only one capable of fighting Marine Admiral.]

The Revolutionary Army's organizational structure was not complex; on the contrary, it could even be described as rudimentary.

At the very top is the leader, Monkey D. Dragon. Some of the lower-ranking Revolutionary Army don't even know the leader's real name or identity.

Next is the Chief of the General Staff. Sabo is 17 years old now, so it's quite an achievement for him to have reached this position.

Next are the five major legions: the East, South, West, and North Legions, and the Grand Line Army.

As their names suggest, these five armies were responsible for different areas and had different names, but they were not ranked in any way.

The Grand Line Army's commander is Emporio Ivankov, who is currently Impel Down.

Sabo has been captured and will probably be sent to prison soon, which will be a good opportunity for him to reunite with Okama King.

Dimon couldn't help but complain:

"The Revolutionary Army is so weak, is there only one capable fighter at headquarters?"

[Judging from their reaction at the time, the Revolutionary Army had a contingency plan in place to prevent their headquarters from being exposed. Their retreat was swift; if the navy had been any slower, they might have escaped successfully.]

[The Revolutionary Army Headquarters in Baltigo has now been occupied by the navy, and some documents that couldn't be taken with them have been confiscated by the navy.]

[It's estimated that the World Government won't have time to pay attention to us for the foreseeable future.]

"Let's ignore the Revolutionary Army for now. How are Big Eyes and the others doing?"

[Captain Big Eyes and Samael took advantage of the chaos to sneak into the Revolutionary Army Headquarters, hide in the prison, and then wait for the Navy to rescue them.]

They have now boarded a warship and are preparing to return to the Holy Land.

The Navy currently has no suspicions about them.

Upon hearing this, Dimon nodded knowingly. "Has no one asked them about their experiences these past few days?"

[No.]

As expected of Celestial Dragons, their status is indeed high; even the Navy doesn't dare to ask them questions.

Thinking about it carefully, it makes sense. In the eyes of the Celestial Dragons, the Navy is like a pet dog. How can a dog be allowed to question its master at will?

The real test comes after entering the holy land.

However, Dimon wasn't worried about this, since the people were indeed the same two people, only the consciousness controlling their bodies was different.

Even if he were exposed, it wouldn't matter. He's now focused on building a water elemental army to find Devil Fruits directly from the sea, eliminating middlemen and their markups.

"Keep an eye on it, and report back to me if any problems arise."

[Understood, Master.]

The news of the destruction of the Revolutionary Army Headquarters was published in the newspapers that very evening.

The World Government finally got a chance to shine. They had been overwhelmed by the Seven Deadly Sins for some time, but this time they managed to capture the Revolutionary Army's second-in-command. The newspapers were full of praise for them.

Some are happy, some are sad.

The World Government was overjoyed, while the Revolutionary Army was shrouded in gloom.

The Grand Line, somewhere in the sea, the Wind Granma.

A man in a green overcoat stood by the ship's railing, staring at the news in his hand, cold sweat beading on his forehead.

Sabo arrested?
