Chapter 36: In Anger

This is a major event that exists in the future.

When Maude said slowly, everything suddenly became as clear as the veins on the leaves.

Law finally understood the direction Maud had been staring into.

It was—a path forged by bones of blood.

At that time, countless lives will become a cold number.

But so what?

Law didn't care at all.

He stood alone in the room, silently staring at the closed door.

"In the midst of this unprecedented war, dispose of Doflamingo......"

The words Maude had said before he left echoed in his mind, and Law's arm was slightly forced, causing the Devil Cry scabbard to sink into his clothes.

Looking at the door, a cold luster slowly appeared.

Chambord Islands, naval branch.

It's meal time.

Commodore Aiden, head of the naval branch of the Chambord Islands, sat at the table with a sad face.

On the table, there are delicacies with all the colors and aromas, most of which he usually likes to eat, but this will have no appetite.

To talk about the reason.

Of course, it's not because people are sad in middle age.

Rather, it's the return of that monster.

"Ugh."

Brigadier General Aiden sighed softly, slowly put down his knife and fork, and rubbed his forehead on his forehead, his fingertips habitually rubbing the missing half of his eyebrows.

Boom!

Suddenly, the door was pushed open.

The lieutenant in the military hat rushed into the room in a panic.

This momentum frightened Brigadier General Aiden's elbow, and even before the adjutant could say what he meant, he already had a bad premonition.

The adjutant's subsequent words confirmed what Brigadier General Aiden had in mind.

"Brigadier General Aiden, Mo, Mo, Maude......"

"What!?"

Brigadier General Aiden suddenly stood up, his eyes wide as he stared at the adjutant.

The adjutant suddenly looked confused, thinking to himself that I hadn't finished my sentence yet?

Looking at the dazed adjutant, Brigadier General Aiden realized that he had overreacted, pretended to cough a few times, sat down slowly, and took a sip of water.

Seeing this, the adjutant hesitated: "That...... Brigadier General Aiden, you already know what I'm going to report to you? ”

"I don't know." Brigadier General Aiden held the water glass and frowned: "Say, it won't be a good thing anyway." ”

The adjutant smiled bitterly when he heard this, straightened his posture, and reported in a deep voice: "An hour ago, the supernova Haiming Apu, who had just landed in the Chambord Islands, was killed by Maude......

“……”

Brigadier General Aiden nodded expressionlessly.

News like this was already expected by him.

Anyway, he had given up on the idea of snatching food from Maud.

As for being pointed at by the people, it doesn't matter.

The adjutant then reported: "And just now, Maude came to our branch with the body of Haiming Apu, ......."

"Click!"

It was the sound of Brigadier General Aiden crushing a water glass.

A minute later.

Meeting room.

Maud sat on the couch and looked sideways at the somewhat familiar admiral in front of her.

And this admiral, naturally, is Commodore Aiden, who came in a hurry.

now

Commodore Aiden, as the highest-ranking navy in the branch, was submissive in front of Maude.

Maud came to the naval branch of the Chambord Islands this time to ask for information on the movements of other supernovas from the navy of the branch, and by the way, exchange the body of Haiming Apu for an equal bounty.

Normally, exchanging a pirate corpse for a bounty is a cumbersome process.

But Maud has the privilege of stepping through the process and getting the bounty as fast as possible.

Despite this, it will take some time for the branch to mobilize hundreds of millions of funds.

Maude did not urge, but quietly looked at Brigadier General Aiden in front of him, unconsciously estimating how much experience gain the other party could bring to him.

The gaze was somewhat malicient.

Brigadier General Aiden's back was like a pinprick, his eyebrows were lowered, and he didn't dare to look at Maude squarely.

Ten minutes later.

A Navy officer came to the reception room with a box of money.

When the money came, Brigadier General Aiden's heart was relieved, and he hoped that the scourge in front of him would leave quickly.

Maude took the cash box, but had no intention of getting up and leaving, and looked at Brigadier General Aiden calmly.

"By the way, what's your name?"

"Huh?"

Brigadier General Aiden was stunned for a moment, and he didn't come back to his senses for a while.

Maud weighed the weight of the cash box, and didn't bother to know the name of Brigadier Adden, and said casually: "I need information on the movements of the supernovas, you should be able to get it, right?" ”

“……”

Brigadier General Aiden breathed.

If you can turn your thoughts into reality.

He's going to cut Maud with a thousand knives.

Half an hour later.

Maud has information on the supernovas' movements.

Except for Haiming Apu, the gluttonous girl Boni, and the strange monk Urki, among the other supernovas, the fastest to reach the Chambord Islands is the Straw Hat Pirates, which are currently hotly discussed.

"We're going to meet again."

Maud looked down at the intelligence information on the paper, muttering to herself.

.........

Two days later.

Headquarters of the Navy, Office of the Marshal.

"Bang!"

Sengoku slapped the table hard, and in the corner of his eyes behind the frame, several green tendons were floating.

As a marshal, he rarely made such gaffes.

"Why did the 'news' leak out?"

Sengoku, who was furious, stared at the chestnut-headed admiral in charge of intelligence.

The momentum that was condensed like a substance made the latter a little breathless.

The lips of the chestnut-headed navy moved, and he couldn't answer the question of the Warring States.

From his standpoint, it is indeed a complete blockade of the news.

But how could he have thought that the news of Fire Fist Ace's capture by the Navy would spread all over the world in an instant.

If it's just that, forget it, I don't know which bastard thing it is, and I'm stunned to add fuel to the matter of the Navy arresting Fire Fist Ace.

What Fire Fist Ace is One Piece Roger's bloodline?

Are you kidding.

The chestnut-headed navy muttered to himself with hatred in his heart.

It's just that

How would he know?

The marshal in front of him, who respected him, when he asked why the news leaked out, the target in his heart was not the fact that the Navy had arrested Fire Fist Ace, but the fact that Fire Fist Ace was the bloodline of One Piece.

Only a very small number of people know about this.

Now that the golden lion is back in the sea, at this juncture, the fact that Fire Fist Ace is the bloodline of One Piece is being widely publicized, which will inevitably make Sengoku think wildly.

Who exactly?

Warring States frowned, and familiar figures swept over his head.

It can't be them.

In an instant, Sengoku made a conclusion.

He didn't speak, and neither did the chestnut-headed navy.

There was a deathly silence in the office.

At this moment,

Lieutenant General Tsuru walked into the office.

Sengoku raised his eyes to Vice Admiral Tsuru and waved his hand to let the chestnut-headed navy leave.

Vice Admiral Tsuru stood on one side, his face calm, as he watched the Chestnut-headed Navy walk out of the office.

Then, she looked at Sengoku and said lightly, "What are you going to do?" ”

"Execute Fire Fist Ace in advance."

Warring States rubbed his brows, and it was difficult to hide his sadness in his expression.

Summoning elites from all over the world to the Navy Headquarters is not something that can be done at your fingertips.

That takes time to prepare.

Moreover, this is a significant execution, and it is necessary to announce it to the whole world before it begins.

For this reason, even if the Whitebeard Pirates are given time to prepare, they will not hesitate.

Lieutenant General Tsuru looked at Sengoku and said calmly, "Let's gather the Seven Martial Seas first." ”

Sengoku nodded.

At the moment, what he is most worried about is not the threat from the Whitebeard Pirates, but the Golden Lion who has returned to the stage after a twenty-year absence.

"Woo-"

Suddenly, a sharp sound resounded throughout the naval base.

"Boom."

Almost at the same time as the alarm sounded, there was a deafening rumbling sound, and the entire base suddenly shook.

The eyes of the Warring States and Lieutenant General Tsuru were all staring.
