One Piece: Inheriting the Shendu Template, I Summon Demons

Smoker reached out and answered the phone, his expression remaining calm.

"Colonel Smoker, the branch's rat colonel, has been murdered!" The branch major's trembling voice came from the other end of the phone, as if he had witnessed some great horror.

"What?" Smoker frowned, his calm and leisurely expression vanishing in an instant.

He was very familiar with the situation in the East China Sea.

There are no more than five pirates whose names you can count on your fingers, and their bounties are all barely in the tens of millions.

These people killed a naval branch captain, aren't they afraid of being purged?

Or perhaps it was after the Age of Exploration began.

Even the weakest East China Sea is not content to be left out; is it trying to emulate the New World?

No! Absolutely not!

Smoker wanted to nip such a thing in the bud.

No matter which pirate it is, they will be suppressed with swift and decisive action.

The strength of the navy and the prestige of the World Government will not be allowed to be challenged by anyone easily.

"Who is this pirate?" Smoker asked in a deep voice.

"Is it that guy, Ah Long?"

In the area ruled by the rats, Arlong, the captain of the Arlong Pirates, is the strongest.

The bounty is as high as 20 million Berries.

Although they can't compare to those in the New World who have hundreds of millions, they are still among the best in the East China Sea.

If anyone had the ability to kill Colonel Rat, this was the first person he thought of.

"No, that's not it!" came the denial from the other end of the phone.

"After Colonel Rat was killed, I immediately launched an investigation and compared the man's appearance with his!"

"We've discovered he's not any of the people on the Navy's wanted list!"

"That means he... he's not even a pirate!"

"Are you kidding me?" Smoker took a deep drag of his cigarette and stood up abruptly.

Are you kidding me?

A man killed the branch's rat colonel and fled without saying a word.

But they didn't even know who the other person was.

This makes the Navy look bad.

"Colonel Smoker, I'm not kidding, and that's not all!"

"It wasn't just Colonel Rat who was killed!"

"The Arlong Pirates have also been wiped out!" The voice on the other end of the phone trembled more and more, as if the person speaking was there.

Smoker's pupils suddenly contracted.

He was furious that the rat had been killed, as it was a provocation against the navy.

But the fact that he was able to kill Ah Long shows that he is very strong!

"Explain the whole story in detail!" Suppressing his anger, Smoker didn't even bother to smoke his cigar.

The Arlong Pirates are among the strongest in the East Blue.

But it was wiped out by one person without a sound.

This person's strength is a level higher than Ah Long's.

"This person is incredibly fast, and his strength is equally formidable!..." The other major recounted in detail what he had seen outside.

"And, there's something even more terrifying!" The major paused, seemingly trying to calm himself down.

"This person can recover completely within tens of seconds after suffering a serious injury!"

hiss~

Hearing this, Smoker's expression grew even more serious.

"Is he a person with special abilities?"

A series of information flashed through his mind, but he couldn't think of any Devil Fruit that could heal a person's hand gesture in such a short time.

However, those who can achieve this are undoubtedly only capable individuals.

"It seems that a remarkable figure has emerged from the East China Sea!" Smoker sneered.

He was very familiar with ability users, because he himself was a user of the Smoke-Smoke Fruit.

"Describe this person's appearance to me!"

A voice responded from the other side: "Black hair, black eyes, about 2 meters tall, with a strong build..." The major suddenly stopped, followed by hurried footsteps: "Wait, Colonel! The investigation into his identity is complete!"

After a series of reports from his subordinates, the major picked up the phone and continued, "This man's name is Luo Xiu. He's a doctor, nicknamed 'Bloody Hand Butcher'!"

“Rosh! Doctor, Bloodhand Butcher?” Smoker murmured.

His brows furrowed deeply.

A doctor and a bloodthirsty butcher! What a legendary duo!

"Humph!"

"No matter who you are, I will bring you back!"

You have committed such an unforgivable crime in the East China Sea. Whether you are a pirate or a demon, I will bring you to justice.

Thinking of this, Smoker hung up the phone and called out towards the door, "Tashigi!"

"Squeak!"

The door was pushed open, and a tall woman with black glasses and a neat short haircut walked in.

"Colonel Smoker!"

"A bounty on this person!" Smoker handed the drawing to Tashigi.

"Who is this person?" She glanced at him and thought he was nothing special.

"He single-handedly slaughtered the branch's Rat Colonel and wiped out the Arlong Pirates!"

"Hiss~" Tashigi couldn't help but gasp.

To accomplish all this single-handedly might not be unusual in the Grand Line or the New World, but it is extremely rare in the East China Sea.

This person is incredibly powerful!

"So, how much should the reward be?"

"Sixty million!" After a moment of silence, Smoker gave his answer.

"Sixty million, sixty million!" Tashigi was somewhat surprised.

In the small East China Sea, the highest bounty is only 20 million.

Even across the entire world, there is no pirate with a bounty exceeding thirty million.

The moment this person appeared, he instantly seized the throne of the most wanted bounty in the world.

After Tashigi left, Smoker picked up another Den Den Mushi.

Heading towards Naval Headquarters...

Chapter 13 The Navy Headquarters' Reaction!

Naval Headquarters, Headquarters Office.

Sengoku was dealing with the complicated documents about the sea area that had come to him, while Garp sat to the side, yawning.

Just then, the Den Den Mushi on the table rang.

Sengoku answered the phone; it was Smoker calling.

"Okay! Got it!" After listening for a while, Sengoku hung up the phone: "Set the new world of a newcomer at 60 million!"

"Garp!"

"What do you think about this?"

"Sixty million? Not bad!" Garp still looked indifferent.

Pirates with bounties of 60 million koi appear from time to time in the New World and the Grand Line, which really doesn't interest him.

"You rascal!" Sengoku looked at his carefree old friend Garp with a helpless expression.

"What if I told you this person came from the East China Sea!"

"East Blue?" Upon hearing these two words, Garp straightened up.

In the East Blue, a pirate force of 20 million is practically the maximum.

The appearance of a pirate with a fortune of 60 million is quite interesting.

But... it's only somewhat interesting.

"What's this person's name?"

"What did you do to warrant a $60 million bounty from Smoker?" he asked casually.

"Luo Xiu! He single-handedly killed the branch's Rat Colonel and more than a dozen Marines, and also destroyed the Arlong Pirates' hideout!" Sengoku said.

"He's an ability user!"

“A Devil Fruit user, huh!” Garp raised an eyebrow.

The term "ability user" might be taken seriously by others, but in Garp's eyes, it doesn't mean anything.

After all, the number of ability users he has defeated is countless.

"So what do you think about this?" Sengoku asked, continuing the previous topic.

“That’s a bit too high!” Karp said.
