Since the opening of the era of pirates, the word "bounty" has been mentioned more and more.

It was a bounty set by the Navy to suppress pirates, but it was regarded by many as an "honor".

Millions of bounties may also attract the attention of bounty hunters.

However, when this amount is raised to a certain extent, the meaning of the "bounty" is lost.

The bounty represents the "level of threat" of the bounty to the world government!

The weak cannot threaten the world government.

In other words, the higher the bounty, the more it means that the world government recognizes his power!

As for exchanging those strong people for bounties and the like, people in their right minds don't think much about it.

How many lives do you have?

But just today, a group of navies on a mission took the lead in opening their eyes.

……

"That's right, it's confirmed!"

On the sea, a squadron of the Navy arrived on a warship.

The squadron leader took the phone bug and directly contacted the Navy Headquarters.

The stakes are so high that the branch they are in is completely unable to deal with it, so they can only seek the opinion of the Navy Headquarters!

The squadron leader looked at the burly figure in front of him and said in a deep voice:

"The person we just took in is one of the cadres of the Hundred Beast Pirates, [Flame Calamity] Ember!"

“……”

"Yes, we will return to the branch immediately, and we will definitely be secretly escorted on the way."

“……”

Click!

After receiving the order from the Navy Headquarters, the squadron leader hung up the phone.

Looking up at the man in front of him, he couldn't help but swallow.

I saw that Ember's body was covered with shackles from Hailou stone, and the doctor on the ship was bandaging his wounds.

As for Ember himself, he had already exhausted his physical strength and passed out.

Who is it?

The squadron leader couldn't help but muttered in his heart:

Who killed Ember exactly?

They received a battle report from Alabastan, saying that they had defeated a very powerful pirate and needed the navy to capture them as soon as possible.

But I never expected that this "powerful" was really a bit outrageous.

【Flame Plague】Ember –

Even though he was stationed in the first half of the Great Voyage all year round, the Squadron Leader had heard of his great name!

This man is definitely a terrifying existence that can easily destroy a small country!

Alabastan is indeed a superpower, and going to war head-on with it is tantamount to directly provoking the world government, so no pirates will provoke it.

But the squadron leader has never heard that there is a combat power on this side of Alabastan that can match [Flame Calamity]!

It seems that [sand crocodiles] are stationed in Alabastan all year round?

“……”

"Forget it, I don't know."

The squadron leader rubbed his head helplessly.

He only remembered the instructions given by the marshal of the headquarters Sengoku in the phone bug:

"Listen up!"

Sengoku's voice was extremely solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "It is absolutely necessary to keep the matter of Ember's arrest secret, and there must be no rumors about it!" ”

……

Headquarters of the Navy.

"Whew!"

Sengoku hung up the squadron leader's phone and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

And beside him, the [Great Staff] Crane also had a solemn face.

After a long pause, the two spit out the same name at the same time-

"[Demon] Evan Lindsay."

“……”

"Yes, it must be him, no right or wrong!"

Sengoku's brows furrowed, "[Sand Crocodile] has a cautious personality, if it weren't for the presence of [Demon], he would never have been able to go to war with [Flame Calamity]!" ”

As the two major think tanks of the Navy Headquarters, Sengoku and Tsuru easily guessed the general situation.

Crane said slowly:

"For some reason, that stinky imp from Doflamingo interfered with the internal affairs of the Drum Kingdom in an attempt to profit from the side of Alabastan, only to attract [Flame Calamity]."

"But in the end, they all fell to the demons......"

These two are really powerful.

Except for the top-secret factor of "historical text", everything else is exactly as speculated by the two!

Tsuru looked at the battle report and shook his head helplessly.

"What a bunch of uneasy stinky little ghosts!"

Glancing at the Warring States, he smiled faintly and said, "Warring States, the one billion bounty is not a small amount. ”

"Don't be joking, Crane."

Sengoku looked back out the window, his eyes filled with a deep sense of worry.

"Just a billion, the Navy can get it."

"The top priority now is not to let Kaido know about Ember's capture before Ember is escorted to Advance City!"

"Once the news leaks, the Hundred Beast Pirates will not give up."

Sengoku rubbed his face and began to work with Tsuru to make an escort plan for the [Flame Calamity] Ember.

……

I have to say it again -

These two are really powerful.

Under the precise strategy of Sengoku and Tsuru, everything went smoothly.

A week later.

Under the secret escort of the navy, Ember was finally imprisoned on the sixth floor of the "Undersea Prison" Advance City.

It was a prison from which there was no escape, and only one person had managed to escape so far.

Therefore, even if the [Hundred Beasts] Kaido noticed the matter of the Embers, the Hundred Beast Pirates would be helpless about it!

……

And just like that, more than a month passed.

The beginning of the year 1507 of the Haiyuan calendar.

In the expeditionary camp of the Hundred Beast Pirates in the South China Sea, there was a sound of crying and weeping.

"Ash Ah!"

The huge [Hundred Beast] Kaido sat on the ground, holding an equally huge wine bowl, and was borrowing wine to kill his sorrows.

He had only just investigated Ember's whereabouts and heard the news of Ember's defeat and arrest, but it was too late.

However, Kaido, despite this, did not grieve excessively.

It's just that he was caught by the Navy!

As a pirate, Kaido has been defeated seven times, captured eighteen times, and even received the death penalty forty times!

As for Ember, his identity as a Lunalia clan is extremely special, and if he eats the Devil Fruit of the ancient animal species, the World Government will not execute him.

At the same time, due to the existence of the Hundred Beast Pirates, it is impossible for Ember to leave Advance City, and it is even more impossible to re-do human experiments.

Therefore, the result with a high probability is that he will be imprisoned at the bottom of the Advance City and will never see the light of day.

"Oh yes!"

Kaido, who was already moody, turned to laugh out loud at the moment with the strength of the wine.

"Ash, you wait, Lao Tzu will definitely rescue you!"

The Hundred Beast Pirates have their own intelligence network, and of course they also inquired about the inside story of this matter.

"Warring States, and the [demon] who defeated the embers, Lao Tzu will write down this matter!"

"Just wait for the burnout!"

……

At about the same time, Kaido's words came true.

Sengoku is indeed a bit anxious now.

The dust has just settled on the arrest of Ember, but a "big event" has happened on the other side that shocked the world!

What's up?

In the year 1507, the attack on the Holy Land of Mary Joy broke out!

【Fishman Hero】Fisher Tiger climbed the Red Earth Continent, made trouble for Mary Joya alone, and freed countless slaves!

On that day, the "Holy Land" was ablaze with flames that shook the entire sea.

In front of that burning sea of fire, Tiger looked up to the sky and roared, bursting out of the unwillingness and anger of the past few years!

Countless slaves were freed, and they scattered in all directions, and some of them had characters who would make a name for themselves in the future.

"Hey, Fishman!"

A young man with gray-green hair, who found Tiger who had rescued him, said in a loud voice:

"I have made a note of your kindness, I am Gilde Tezzolo, and I will definitely repay you in the future!"

Gilde Tezzolo - the future Golden Emperor.

“……”

On the other side, the three girls stumble away from the fire, but accidentally bump into Tiger.

"Hmm!"

The girl at the head fell on her heels and got up with the help of the other two.

Looking at Tiger covered in blood, the three human girls couldn't help but shudder.

"It's fine."

Tiger leaned down, comforted the girl with long black hair, and said softly, "Child, what's your name?" ”

"Hancock."

The girl raised her head, her bright pupils open, and tried hard to remember the appearance of the benefactor in front of her.

She continued: "Boya Hancock. ”

“……”

……

"—That's probably what I experienced with Mary Joa."

"Not a thing worth mentioning, is it?"

Alababastan, the royal capital of Arubana.

Den.

Lindsay opened the letter in Tiger's mail and read it silently.

Drinking low-alcohol fruit wine, with an extremely gentle smile on his face, his eyes narrowed into a line.

"I led a bunch of bastards from Fish-Man Street to form the Sun Pirates, and you may have heard of me!"

“……”

Tiger's letters are full of nostalgia for this old friend.

"I originally wanted to go to you to catch up, but these bastards are really troublesome, so I can only take care of them first!"

"Oh, yes, yes, there's one more thing-"

"I heard that the messenger of the sea beast said, you are looking for something related to 'antiquity'? I stumbled upon this in Mary Joa. ”

"I asked for a reliable sea beast, and I hope it can be handed over to you smoothly."

“……”

Lindsay's gaze turned to the side.

There, there is an old "book" that Tiger found in the Holy Land of Mary Joa.

Knock knock!

At the same time, there was a knock on the door of the study.

Klockdahl walked straight in, looked at Evan Lindsay, and wondered, "What did you ask me to come over?" ”

"Do you want to listen to fairy tales?"

Lindsay smiled, picked up the old book, and slowly introduced:

"It's about 'music' and 'the Great Demon King'......"

“……”
