Grand Line's Lord Of Shadows

at the same time.

Located at the end of the first half of the Grand Line.

Adjacent to Naval Headquarters Marineford on the Red Line.

In the magnificent Marine Building, on the highest floor~in the Marshal's Office.

With a "bang" sound, Naval Headquarters Marshal Buddha Sengoku slapped the expensive desk heavily and stood up suddenly.

His eyes were burning, and he looked at the adjutant in front of him with a face full of shock and anger: "What did you say? Vice Admiral, the supreme commander of the GE2 branch, died?"

"Are you kidding? Just let them hunt down a Nico Robin!"

"Marshal Sengoku, this is the Marine personnel accompanying the G-2 branch, urgent report..."

Seeing the marshal's anger, Brannew couldn't help but shed a cold sweat, and was busy reporting quickly: "It is said that they were searching for the whereabouts of Nico Robin on Isla Blanca. When they just found Nico Robin and were preparing to arrest him, the Black Prison William suddenly appeared on that island!"

"He directly used Conqueror's Haki to knock out most of the Marine personnel... and then fought with Vice Admiral!"

"But Vice Admiral was no match and unfortunately died!"

"This is the photo that was urgently faxed back, confirming that it is William of Hell himself!"

Brannew said.

I respectfully presented a few photos and handed them to the Buddha Sengoku in front of me.

"That daring kid, the world government is worried about not being able to find him, and he's just trying to scare the monkeys... He disappeared for a few months and then suddenly reappeared?"

Buddha Sengoku looked through the photos with fierce eyes.

Just see the first photo.

A young, handsome, tall boy was standing on the rooftop with a young woman wearing a cloak.

Astonishingly, he suddenly killed his boss a few days ago, made a big fuss in the Enies Lobby, stole two Devil Fruits that were going to be escorted to Mariejois, the center of World Government, and directly defected from the Black Prison, William, who was offered a bounty of 79 million shellfish by World Government at the age of eight. Lee, the 'son of the devil' Nico Robin who is constantly being hunted.

"asshole!!!"

But then.

Turn to the last photo.

Sengoku's pupils dilated and he was furious.

"Bang——" A palm as big as a palm was slapped on the desk in anger.

That expensive desk fell apart in an instant.

I only saw the last photo.

It was a bloody corpse.

It was so miserable that he was almost no longer human.

Based on the blood-covered face, one could barely recognize that this was Vice Admiral, the supreme commander of the G-2 branch directly affiliated with the Naval Headquarters.

Marine Vice Admiral can already be said to be the indispensable backbone of Naval Headquarters.

Any time a player is lost, it is a huge loss for Marine.

Not to mention that it starts with the letter G and is directly subordinate to the supreme commander of the branch base of Naval Headquarters.

How can Sengoku not be angry?

This is simply a provocation and trample on Marine's majesty.

"Damn black jail...Obask William, that bastard kid, is simply lawless!" Buddha Sengoku's face turned dark, and he gritted his teeth.

"The current situation is not just a matter of the unfortunate sacrifice of Marine Vice Admiral...

at this time.

An elderly woman wearing a righteous cloak walked in with a serious face.

"Crane Vice Admiral!" Sengoku Adjutant Brannew was busy saluting.

This gray-haired old woman is no ordinary woman.

She is not only the Vice Admiral of Naval Headquarters, but also serves as the Marine think tank and serves as the chief adviser of Naval Headquarters.

"Xiaohe, you're here..." Looking at the person, Sengoku's livid face suddenly relaxed a lot.

The two have been friends fighting side by side since they were young.

There has been a friendship for decades.

Even the young Mu Ai had a crush on him when he was young.

It's a pity that he was too thin-skinned at that time, for fear that his confession would be rejected, and as a result, others would beat him to it.

For this reason, Buddha Sengoku still has regrets to this day.

"That Black Prison William, he is a traitor of CP9 and knows too many secrets..."

Crane Vice Admiral was not polite to the marshal, and said in a deep voice: "The reason I want to get close to Nico Robin is probably for the Ancient Weapon!"

"Ancient Weapon?"

Buddha's Sengoku had a serious look on his face, frowned and said, "Trouble... It's really unsettling for two dangerous guys to come together!"

The legendary Ancient Weapon has the power to destroy the world.

Although he didn't know whether it was true or false, as the marshal of Naval Headquarters, he did not dare to bet on such a possibility.

Any threat must be nipped in the bud.

"And it's worth noting that his strength has improved so quickly..."

Crane Vice Admiral said seriously.

"On the day of the big riot at Enies Lobby, he grabbed two Devil Fruits, one of which was a rare phantom beast species. It really cannot be underestimated..."

Buddha Sengoku nodded: "No wonder Gumir defeated him so easily!"

When we were making a big fuss at Enies Lobby,

The Satsuma Vice Admiral responsible for escorting Devil Fruit and passing there is just an ordinary Naval Headquarters Vice Admiral.

In terms of strength, he is not even a little bit worse than an elite Vice Admiral like Gumir.

At first, Vice Admiral Satsuma was defeated and did not attract much attention.

But now, the strength displayed by Hell William cannot be ignored.

If you want to really catch the opponent, you may have to use the Admiral Substitute or Marine Admiral.

"No, that's not what I want to say..."

Crane Vice Admiral shook his head directly.

Pointing to the photo in Buddha Sengoku's hand, he said bluntly: "According to the information sent back, he has not shown the ability of Rat Fruit, Phantom Beast Species, and Kamaita form. He relied entirely on his physical skills to crush him. We hired Gumir, a veteran Vice Admiral with great strength and rich experience!”

"Furthermore, if you look at Gumir's body, the injuries are more likely to be caused by a powerful shock wave, which is completely inconsistent with the abilities related to the phantom beast species and the form of the sickle and weasel described in the Devil Fruit illustrated book!"

"You mean, he may have acquired other Devil Fruit abilities?" Sengoku asked in surprise.

------*01*·-----

According to CP's intelligence, Black Prison William was not yet an esper when he defected.

"This possibility cannot be ruled out!" Crane Vice Admiral said bluntly: "But it is also possible that his physical skills and Haki have improved by leaps and bounds!"

"That kid is indeed not simple. Together with Rob Lucci, he is known as the strongest genius in CP9 in the past 800 years, but it seems that Rob Lucci may be far inferior to him..."

Buddha Sengoku nodded solemnly: "If I remember correctly, he is only seventeen years old, right?"

"Precisely because he is only seventeen years old, we need to pay more attention to..."

Crane Vice Admiral felt a little inexplicable, and said quietly: "He hid it too deeply, and he was born to awaken Observation Haki. He has awakened Conqueror's Haki without knowing when, but he is secretly and blind!"

"If we continue to let him go and give him time to grow, I'm afraid he will become another 'redhead'!"

Hearing this——

Buddha's Sengoku and Brannew couldn't help but change their expressions.

The red-haired Shanks, the trainee on board the Roger Pirates, is a rising star who has been rising rapidly in recent years.

0

Although the Red Hair Pirates are not as good as the Whitebeard Pirates, the Big Mom Pirates, and the Beasts Pirates, these forces dominate the New World and dominate one side.

But that's just because the power under his command is inferior. In terms of strength, it is no weaker than those monsters on the sea.

In fact, the red-haired Shanks has been vaguely considered to be qualified to stand on an equal footing with great pirates such as Whitebeard, Big Mom, and Kaido.

Even if Marine wants to go to war with the Red Hair Pirates, he must be fully prepared.

This shows how highly Vice Admiral has a high opinion of Hell William.

"Go...call that guy Aokiji over here!"

Buddha Sengoku's expression changed, and he finally made up his mind: "The trouble he left behind should be solved by himself!"

The general Naval Headquarters Vice Admiral is obviously no match for Hell William.

Directly dispatch the Admiral of Headquarters to pursue them.

It is undoubtedly more stable.

"Ah? Yes, Marshal Sengoku..."

Brannew left in a hurry.

Vice Admiral He didn't say much.

She naturally understands the meaning of Buddha's Sengoku.

It stands to reason that fifteen years ago, under the Buster Call of Marine at the famous archaeological institution Ohara in West Blue, there was no possibility for anyone to survive.

How could an eight-year-old girl escape alone?

Moreover, Spangdine, who was the top officer of CP9 and the person in charge of Buster Call at the time, kept mentioning that their ships wanted to pursue them, but the result was as if the bottom of the ship was frozen and unable to move...

Combined with Aokiji's abnormal performance at that time, it was obvious that the other party was shaken in his heart and felt compassion to let go of Nico Robin, a potential threat.

Now a dangerous guy like Obask William is getting involved with Nico Robin, the "son of the devil" who can decipher historical Chinese.

The danger of the incident is undoubtedly extremely serious.

It can no longer be left unchecked.
