From Pirates to the Strongest Death God in Soul Society

Chapter 228 Huangmu’s grudge and Pandora’s box.

Half a month later, after Bane, Garp and Ichisho escorted the Red Hair Pirates to Impeldown, they quickly returned to the new naval headquarters.

As for Zephyr and Kuzan, there is also Sengoku.

The three of them did not help in the escort, but returned directly to Melview from Elegia.

Nami and Robin were taken away with them, leaving Bane with only his assistant, Ian.

As soon as he got off the warship and stood at the port, Bane felt the enthusiasm from the headquarters.

No matter whether they were ordinary naval soldiers on the dock or those generals and officers, their eyes lit up when they saw him, and their admiration for him seemed to be overflowing.

Yixiao walked beside Bane. Although he couldn't see, he could feel the atmosphere. He couldn't help but smiled and said, "As a fellow admiral, I'm a little jealous of you."

"Hahahaha, I feel embarrassed when you say that." Bane responded with a big laugh.

"I will have to sort out some reports on the previous blocking operations later. After that, when you return to Melview, remember to inform me. I haven't been there yet." He smiled and reminded again.

"No problem. I guarantee you'll be surprised when we get to Melville," Bane said mysteriously.

"Then I'm looking forward to it." He said happily with a smile.

At the same time, in the headquarters building of the Navy Headquarters, in the office of a vice admiral.

Huangmu was standing in front of the window, looking at the square, and saw Bane and his group walking towards the building.

At this time, Huangmu's expression was a little irritable, and there was an inextricable disgust in his eyes towards Bane's figure.

From the very beginning, he disliked Bane, and the reason was very simple. The reason why he was parachuted into the headquarters of the Navy by Marijoa was actually to be used by the Five Elders to balance Bane. They planned to use Huangmu to put pressure on Bane, so that Marijoa could better exert influence and control over Bane.

Unfortunately, before Aramaki could start to exert his strength, Bane suddenly seemed to lose his strength and had a fierce fight with Kaido. He was promoted to the rank of admiral of the navy based on his strength.

To be honest, this was completely beyond Maryjoa's expectations, and it left Huangmu dumbfounded.

Before coming, wasn't it agreed that Bane was just a guy with some strength? How come he is suddenly on par with Kaido, who is known as the strongest?
As a result, it was difficult for Huangmu to do anything that could compete with Bane and put pressure on Bane in a short period of time, so he was also very sensible and did not show up. He just played his role as a vice admiral and looked for opportunities to lick Sakaski's boots.

He hopes to rely on the care of the new marshal Sakaski to enhance his influence in the navy, gradually catch up with Bane, and then fulfill Mary Joa's expectations of him, further suppress Bane, and even seize Bane's current power and status.

You know what, maybe it was because he admired Sakaski, and he didn't become an admiral like in the original story, but just a vice admiral of the navy. In short, Aramaki served Sakaski well.

And Sakaski also felt that this person was capable and had sufficient strength. Even if we did not consider personal likes and dislikes and only looked at Huangmu's abilities, he was a talent worth cultivating.

Therefore, from the perspective of a marshal, Sakaski also gave Huangmu many opportunities, especially in the expedition to Beehive Island. Sakaski rejected all objections and let Huangmu serve as the commander-in-chief, in charge of this expedition.

This made Huangmu overjoyed, and he exclaimed that his licking of Sakaski was not in vain, because the Marshal was someone who understood him!

In Aramaki's view, this was his first official performance on the navy stage. Although Wang Zhi was not a pirate at the level of the Four Emperors, he was a strong candidate to compete with Golden Lion Shiki for the position of the new Four Emperors, and he was also a big shot.

How did Bane take off in the Navy?
Isn't it just by stepping on the golden lion that you can raise your status?
If he can do it, why can't I?

As long as he can defeat Wang Zhi this time, Huang Mu will be ranked top in the navy!

In this way, Huang Mu formed a large fleet and went to attack the Beehive Island conscientiously. In order to avoid any accidents, the method he adopted was quite safe and he did not make any mistakes. He was steady. Step by step, he trapped Wang Zhi to death in the Beehive Island, and all the plans went very smoothly.

That morning, he was in high spirits and issued the order to launch a general attack on Beehive Island that afternoon. Even after that, he had begun to imagine how he would be respected after returning victoriously to the Navy Headquarters.

As a result, the "bad news" came first before the general offensive began that day.

His mortal enemy, Bane, went to a concert in Elegia and somehow annihilated the Red Hair Pirates!

If this was the result of Bane's careful plan, Huangmu might be able to tolerate it. But according to the information he got, Bane and others were just blind cats that met dead mice, and they hit the jackpot by accident!
He felt that if he and Bane switched identities, he would be able to achieve the same thing. With Kuzan, Zephyr, Garp, Sengoku and other naval bosses by his side, wouldn't it be easy for him to defeat the Red Hair Pirates?
In fact, judging from the course of the battle, perhaps there is nothing wrong with Aramaki's idea. As long as he can withstand Shanks' attack head-on and form a confrontation with Shanks, he can create an excellent opportunity for the dark Sengoku, and the result should not be bad.

Of course, this was Huangmu's own idea. If Bane knew what he was thinking, he would definitely laugh.

Shanks was at the edge of the sea far away, releasing his domineering Haki, which almost scared you to your knees. You still think you can resist Shanks head-on? You’re dreaming.

In short, Huangmu just felt that Bane was just lucky, and he could do the same thing, so he was envious and jealous of Bane!
I thought that after I had dealt with Wang Zhi, I would be warmly welcomed back at headquarters and treated like a hero.

After he came back, he found that no one was discussing him at all. All they were talking about was what happened to General Bane.

This completely destroyed Huang Mu's mentality!
In the past, he only regarded Bane as his potential rival, but now, he has secretly hated Bane!
"One day sooner or later, I will step on you, you bastard." Huang Mu gradually withdrew his gaze, no longer looking at the popular Bane, and pulled the curtains.

Bane didn't know that Huangmu secretly held a grudge against him. Of course, even if he knew, he wouldn't be surprised, let alone care.

It's normal for someone like Huangmu, who believes that 'human beings can only live in peace if they discriminate and trample on others', to have this kind of mentality.

Sitting back at his desk, Huang Mu originally wanted to deal with some work matters, but he couldn't calm down. It was as if there was a fire burning in his heart, making him extremely restless.

For some unknown reason, he opened a drawer with a combination lock and took out a top-secret document.

What is even more surprising is that the logo on this document is not from the Naval Headquarters, but from the CP Agency!

"Karp." Huangmu stroked the rough texture of the file bag and whispered softly.

This was a top-secret mission assigned to him by the CP agency when he left Marijoa. The mission was to secretly take Vice Admiral Garp's grandson Monkey D. Luffy, who was imprisoned in the courtyard of the Navy Headquarters' own manor, away and send him to the holy land of Marijoa.

The time period is very broad, because this matter is still difficult. When the incident happened in Admiral Zefa's home, although the high-ranking naval officials failed to find out anything, how could they not have some idea in their minds?
Since then, the Navy Headquarters has raised the security of the living space of senior generals to several levels. Even if Aramaki is openly a member of the Navy and a vice admiral, he cannot easily capture Garp's grandson here.

Otherwise, the senior generals of the navy would be furious.

Moreover, this matter must be carried out in secret, that is to say, it must at least be done to the same extent as what happened in General Zefa's family. Even if you have doubts, you must not leave any evidence!
How long had Huang Mu been in the Navy? How could he, a parachuted vice admiral, complete this mission in such a short time?

Therefore, this secret mission gave him ample time. He could choose the right time within three years.

Don't be impatient, just seek stability!
After all, although the five people on Mary Geoise wanted to complete the task from Lord Im as soon as possible, they did not want the navy to riot because of this, especially the senior generals.

The rift caused by Zefa's incident is probably still there. If it happens again, who can bear it? The families of the admirals and heroes can be kidnapped and murdered in the Navy Headquarters. What about the families of the other generals?

People can tolerate it once, but if it happens twice it will be a serious provocation.

If the hands and feet are not clean and traces are left, and the situation cannot be minimized, Mary Geoise may be directly turned upside down by the navy.

Huang Mu was indeed not in a hurry to do this. In fact, he had not planned to complete this task before. He was not a fool, so how could he not see the tricks involved? Although he was not opposed to letting Mary Joaquim be a dog, he did not want to put too much of a leash on her neck.

He secretly kidnapped Garp's grandson today and sent him to Marijoa, and tomorrow Marijoa would put a gold-rimmed dog chain on him.

This will be a big handle in the future. No matter how great his career becomes, even if he becomes a marshal, he will never be able to go against any will of Marijoa.

After all, as long as Marijoa released this matter, no matter how high his position in the navy was, he would become the target of public criticism and be labeled a traitor. At that time, where would he be able to stay? He could only serve Marijoa obediently.

In fact, the Five Elders wanted to use Bane's ability to take the Nika Fruit from Luffy's body. They also had the same plan in mind. As long as Bane did it, he would have to go all the way to the end and be a dog for Mary Joaquin. Otherwise, once the news broke, no matter whether he was an admiral or a marshal, he would no longer be respected or trusted by the navy.

In the past, Huang Mu was not in a hurry and even didn't want to do it, but today, this narrow-minded man felt the pressure from Bane. While he was envious and jealous, he seemed to want to do anything to get what he wanted.

But after a moment, Huang Mu calmed himself down, and after hesitating for a while, he locked the document into the deepest part of the cabinet drawer again.

However, although he resisted this temptation at the moment, the drawer, once opened, was like opening Pandora's box, always attracting his attention and sight.
