Chapter 467 Aftermath·Part 1
Moby Dick.
Marco transformed into a phoenix, vibrated his wings, and flew back from the island carrying Whitebeard. When he landed on the deck, he attracted a crowd of crew members to watch.
Ignoring the rest of the situation, Whitebeard looked at Diamond Jozi and Weibull with concern, especially the latter whose hands had been cut off by Adrian before.
"Jozy, Weibull, are you two okay?"
Diamond Jozi shook his head, raised his right hand, arched his strong biceps, put on a healthy posture, and said calmly: "Dad, I'm fine."
Weibull moved his left and right wrists, sniffed again, and said with lingering fear: "Dad, I'm fine, it's just that it hurt when my hand was cut off before!"
Marco transformed into a human form and explained Weibull's physical condition to Whitebeard in detail from the perspective of professionalism and fruit ability, and informed that because the treatment was very timely, there would be no sequelae.
This completely dispelled the "old father's" worries.
Marco stepped aside, and Sachi, the captain of the fourth division, walked onto the deck with the food and wine he had carefully prepared.
Whitebeard walked to the captain's throne and sat down, took the wine and food and started to enjoy it.
‘White Ghost is such a troublesome guy! ’
Picking up the wine can and drinking it all in one gulp, Whitebeard grabbed a large piece of bone-in barbecue and tore into it, while thinking about Adrian in his heart.
‘Unparalleled swordsmanship, unparalleled maneuverability in the sea, and absolutely top-notch two-color domineering, it’s like a combination of the two guys, Redfield and Shiji...’
‘I’m really looking forward to our next meeting...’
Just then, a loud shout came from the lookout on the mast.
"Dad! The White Ghost has boarded the Redfors!...Dad! There are some naval battleships over there fighting with the red-haired pirates!...Dad! The White Ghost has flown away alone!"
Whitebeard took a swig of wine.
"Gulu la la la! What a willful and comfortable guy!"
‘What a powerful guy that makes people jealous! ’
In the corner, a fat black man with gaping teeth lowered his head to hide the jealous look in his eyes.
‘Ghost Fruit… When can I encounter the Dark Fruit? ! ’
……
About a few hours later.
Looking at the dragon-headed pirate ship leaving proudly on the distant sea.
There was a sad and silent scene on top of the dilapidated naval battleship.
The navy soldiers lowered their heads and closed their eyes in pain, not wanting to look at their colleagues who had died in the previous boarding battle.
The waist and abdomen of Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel's original neat purple and white suit were directly stained red by a sharp sword penetration wound. He was using his life-returning ability to try to stop the wound from bleeding.
Gion, who was breathing heavily and his clothes were also stained with blood, held Kinpira tightly in his hands, biting his teeth tightly, almost drawing blood from his lips. He looked at the sea with a pair of beautiful eyes, filled with deep unwillingness. .
The strength of the red-haired pirates far exceeded the expectations of several lieutenant generals.
For the pirate groups that usually wander around the new world, even the supernovas of the past, as long as their abilities are not particularly difficult, almost any lieutenant general in the headquarters has the opportunity to directly lead the fleet to destroy them!
And for a pirate group like the Red Haired Pirates, where all members have no results, their overall strength is easily underestimated.
Even though Flying Squirrel and Gion know that the captain of the red-haired pirates - Straw Hat Shanks - is a powerful swordsman who has reached the semi-finals of the sword trial competition.
But the strength of the two of them is not weak.
In the initial stage of estimating each other's strength, both Flying Squirrel and Gion are confident enough to lead the naval fleet to defeat the Red-haired Pirates!
But they never thought that the strength of the red-haired pirates far exceeded their imagination!
Even if Hawkeye Mihawk is just letting the water fall from the side.
With the powerful strength of three navy headquarters lieutenants and several navy warships, they still failed to take down the red-haired pirates, and even accidentally sacrificed a hawkish lieutenant general...
The red-haired pirates except Captain Straw Hat Shanks.
The strength of Vice Captain Ben Beckman, who personally killed the Lieutenant General, cannot be underestimated!
The pale Lieutenant General Flying Squirrel endured both physical and mental pain and issued orders to the communication soldiers.
"Inform the headquarters that the operation to capture the red-haired pirates failed, and...obituary Lieutenant General Paz died in the line of duty!"
……
Naval Headquarters, Marinevando.
Daily meetings are taking place in the central conference room.
In the brightly lit spacious room, the somewhat older Marshal Kong sat at the top of the conference table, distributing faxes of information that had just been sent back from the New World towards the bottom.
The senior generals participating in the meeting silently read the heavy fax paper in their hands with heavy expressions.
Lieutenant General Paz...
Another colleague died on the front line of hunting down pirates...
Marshal Kong bent his fingers and tapped the table of the conference table twice with his knuckles, attracting the attention of the other generals.
"Regarding Lieutenant General Paz... first convey the news of his death in the line of duty to his family and provide him with a pension, and then inform the entire Marineland later. After Lieutenant General Paz's body returns to the headquarters, a grand funeral will be held …”
Marshal Kong gave Lieutenant General Paz's related matters in detail and talked for a long time.
The other senior generals also listened silently.
After Marshal Kong finished speaking.
The senior generals stood up in unison, took off their hats and observed a moment of silence.
There was a three-minute silence.
After everyone returns to their seats.
Marshal Kong coughed twice and shifted the topic to several other characters.
"Regarding the Red Hair Pirates, it is recommended to increase the reward amount."
"No objection!"
"No objection!"
This decision was unanimously approved by all senior generals present.
Under the joint roundup of three lieutenant generals and several naval warships.
The red-haired pirates paid almost no price, and even left in a swagger after killing a headquarters lieutenant general.
There is no doubt that the reward amount has been increased!
After a period of discussion, the bounty amounts of the crew members of the red-haired pirates who performed well in the battle were increased to a certain extent.
As a pirate captain, Shanks' bounty jumped to more than 600 million beli, which was twice as much as before.
Ben Beckman, who personally killed Lieutenant General Paz, also had a bounty of more than 500 million beli set on his head.
Marshal Kong nodded slightly, passed over the affairs related to the red-haired pirates, and brought up the existence of another one.
"Does that swordsman, Hawkeye Joracol Mihawk, need to be identified as a pirate?"
Before participating in the sword trial meeting.
Mihawk, who wanders the sea and challenges strong men from all walks of life, has always been a wandering swordsman and rarely conflicts with the navy.
But this time.
Mihawk, however, showed that he was on good terms with the red-haired pirates.
The most serious thing is.
When the navy was chasing the red-haired pirates, Mihawk even took the initiative to help contain them!
This can almost be said to be provoking the majesty of the navy!
A hawkish navy raised his hand and said sternly: "A swordsman who joins the ranks of pirates will only be a pirate!"
As soon as these words came out, they immediately aroused the approval of most hawkish navy.
"Hawkeye Mihawk's behavior in preventing the capture of the Red-haired Pirates should indeed be classified as a pirate, but..."
A certain dovish navy man with a generous face hesitated for a while and then took the initiative to propose.
"Considering his past behavior and his strong swordsmanship, I recommend that Hawkeye Mihawk be included in the candidates for the King's Shichibukai!"
As soon as this special term [王下七武海] came out, it caused a small commotion.
After a short period of intense discussion.
Most senior admirals approved of the dovish Navy's proposal.
After the dust settles.
This routine meeting has ended completely.
As for...
The newly released "world's greatest swordsman"...
From the marshal of the headquarters to the brigadier general of the headquarters who was barely qualified to attend the meeting, they all invariably ignored his existence.
White ghost?
Whoever wants to be caught can be caught!
However, some people did catch this big news! (End of chapter)
