One Piece: Burning the Prison Clothes in the Setting Sun, Mihawk is dumbfounded.
Chapter 400 Warning! The Deployment of the Sky, the Sengoku Decision
It actually works!
Crocodile's pupils contracted sharply upon seeing the Devil Fruit in Dunn's hand.
Even though Dunn had previously said he could take the Devil Fruits from other people, this unprecedented thing was still somewhat beyond his comprehension.
Seeing and confirming it with his own eyes was naturally a huge shock to Crocodile.
This means that all those with abilities could be Dunn's prey.
"Let me know if there's anything else. Maybe someone wants to challenge me."
As Dunn spoke, he tossed the Devil Fruit in his hand to Crocodile, waved his hand, left those words, and then disappeared into the firelight.
The Door-Door Fruit is suitable for long distances, but it's not necessary now.
Dunn's flames had spread throughout the entire examination area, and he could elementalize and appear anywhere at any time.
"Vice President?"
The person watching the monitor spoke up, waking Crocodile from his daze as he stared at the Devil Fruit in his hand.
"Ahem, continue monitoring, especially those we've been keeping an eye on. Report them immediately if they encounter any danger, and notify the chairman as soon as we discover that any capable individuals have been defeated or killed."
"clear!"
Having witnessed Dunn's actions firsthand, the group now held him in even greater awe.
Holding the Devil Fruit, Crocodile turned and left.
"This time, in addition to the guilds bringing out Devil Fruits, there are at least a hundred Devil Fruit users gathered on Skypiea."
Thinking of this, Crocodile's heart pounded wildly.
If the guild were to control all these people and Devil Fruits, it's estimated that 70-80%, or even 90%, of all the Devil Fruit users in the entire ocean would be under its control.
Overthrowing the world government will be much easier then.
However, once word gets out about Dunn's ability, other ability users will definitely be very wary.
"The guild leader might not care, but the guild itself..."
Crocodile was having a bit of a headache.
Before he could control this power, he couldn't let the news spread widely. With that in mind, he took out a Den Den Mushi from his pocket.
"Morgans!"
The Den Den Mushi was connected, and the Den Den Mushi in his hand transformed into the shape of a bird's head.
"Respected Vice President, what are your instructions?"
Morgans' voice was high-pitched, clearly indicating his excitement.
The world's attention is now focused on the Hunter Exam on Skypiea, and this enormous influence excites Morgans greatly.
"The chairman's actions must not be leaked."
Crocodile spoke up to remind him.
"Huh? What do you mean?"
Morgans didn't understand.
"The president has some things to do afterward. If you see any demon ability user die during your broadcast, immediately switch off the broadcast."
Crocodile reminded us.
"Why? Many people want to see the president in action right now; this is the best opportunity to boost our reputation."
Morgan hesitated for a moment.
"This is not a suggestion, this is an order."
Crocodile thought for a moment, but decided not to reveal Dunn's ability to steal Devil Fruits. After all, this guy was a journalist, and he might accidentally reveal it in a moment of excitement.
"An order? If it's Chairman Dunn, I can certainly carry it out, but Crocodile, you don't think you can order me around like that, do you?"
Morgans' voice turned somber.
He's easy to talk to, but that doesn't mean just anyone can give him orders.
"This concerns Chairman Dunn. If you can be trusted, you'll understand once this matter is over."
Crocodile gave a warning and then hung up the Den Den Mushi.
On the other side, Morgans, who was holding the Den Den Mushi, rolled his eyes. He could tell from Crocodile's tone and words that this matter was very important.
He was curious.
But should we do as Crocodile says?
He turned to look at the rows of hundreds of screens, and then gave the order.
Although I'm curious, I should be able to understand what happened later.
Then, dozens of surveillance Den Den Mushi (snail phones) near Dunn and at the two locations where Dunn was located were turned off, and the camera switched to other Den Den Mushi.
"President, many people are concerned about President Dunn. Why switch?"
The voluptuous female secretary was somewhat puzzled.
"It's okay. Although many people are paying attention to Chairman Dunn, it doesn't mean they won't pay attention just because Chairman Dunn isn't around."
Morgans' eyes were full of confidence.
This is a major event that could even affect the future world situation, and it's a huge spectacle that no one can ignore.
Just as Morgans had predicted, the broadcasting Den Den Mushi deployed around the world switched the screens where Dunn's image could be seen, causing many people to curse and some even tried to influence the broadcast through their power or other means.
But it didn't work.
Moreover, they had no choice but to keep watching.
……
Mary Geoise.
"That kind of darkness..."
The Mary Geoise five's expressions changed when they saw the scene change.
"CP reported this before, so it seems to be correct, but Lord Im has not given any other orders."
"Aren't we going to take action this time? Just stand by and watch? Those guys can't influence things this big."
In the eyes of the Five Elders, CP agents are just ordinary tools.
This tool can solve some problems, but it's quite useless for some big ones.
Those sent out now can only cause some impact at most.
"Doflamingo is there too. It seems he reached some kind of agreement with Dunn. Maybe what happened before was at Dunn's behest..."
Although many attacks on Celestial Dragons occurred afterward, the second person to make a move after Dunn's initial action was this former Celestial Dragon, Doflamingo.
This made the Five Elders want to get rid of this bastard completely.
As for the secrets about the Celestial Dragons that Doflamingo possessed, they are now meaningless.
"It's all the same. If we could deal with Dunn, we wouldn't have let him stay until now."
At this point, all five of them fell silent.
Before Dunn appeared, they never imagined that they would be pushed to this extent by someone.
Even Rocks and Roger the Pirate couldn't do that.
Now they are hesitant and even worried about when Dunn will come to Mary Geoise again.
After all, both outcomes resulted in significant losses for Mary Geoise.
"Lord Im should not stand idly by this time. We can just wait for orders," Saint Satan said, then looked around at the other four.
"But the ship that the navy acquired this time must be taken back."
At this point, the other four men's expressions turned gloomy.
The ship hidden beneath Wano Country surfaced, and once they discovered it, they understood what it was.
Such a powerful ancient weapon naturally had to be held in one's hand.
Even if it cannot defeat a truly powerful opponent, the terrifying power to destroy a country in one strike is still a huge deterrent.
Especially given the current situation, even among the member states of the World Government, many have begun to have other ideas.
Some were observers of the Hunter's Guild's arrival, and some even cooperated with the Hunter's Guild.
However, some even made contact with the Revolutionary Army, and some even outwardly complied with the World Government's orders but inwardly defied them.
If we get our hands on this ship, those scoundrels with ulterior motives will probably keep watching, or at least won't dare to make any rash moves.
This is important for stabilizing the situation for world governments.
"But the Navy is unwilling to give up."
At this point, the five men's expressions grew even more somber.
As a dog kept by the World Government, it is now disobeying orders.
"The reply from the Warring States period was that the ship now needs a lot of time to be repaired because it has been idle for too long."
Five people believed this to be true.
It may indeed take time to repair and process, but Sengoku refused to let the World Government send someone to handle and take over.
Although it wasn't explicitly stated, this already conveys a certain attitude.
"Before Wano Country disappeared, that Dunn met and talked with Sengoku. We don't know the specifics of what they discussed yet."
"Send Kong the Steel Bone to personally take over Pluton. If Sengoku dares to obstruct us, take him down and reinstate Kong as Fleet Admiral."
The five people discussed in hushed tones and came to a conclusion after a short while.
As a former Fleet Admiral, Kong's prestige within the Navy is no less than that of Sengoku.
If control of the navy can be regained in this way, the navy can still play a significant role.
Otherwise, it would be really difficult to handle.
After all, if dealing with the navy causes a huge upheaval, then the Hunter's Guild would be reaping the benefits.
The order was issued quickly.
Steelbone Sky was not surprised by this order.
He considered this possibility when he contacted Sengoku and noticed the change in Sengoku's attitude.
But Cyborg Kong, who had completely joined the World Government, had no other choice. After receiving orders, he instructed the CP agents on Skypiea to attack and kill talented contestants at all costs.
He then left Mary Geoise.
……
After hanging up the Den Den Mushi, Sengoku's expression turned serious.
"What's wrong? An order from the World Government?"
Seeing Sengoku's expression, Vice Admiral Tsuru guessed.
"Yes, the Air Marshal is coming in person, and we also need the main force of the Navy to return to headquarters immediately to prevent a major upheaval in the New World and Paradise."
Sengoku nodded and spoke, but his expression was extremely solemn.
This order seems normal, but it's clear that the Air Marshal's objective is this Pluto.
"Someone must be stationed here."
The Warring States period was marked by a frown and deep thought.
He still hasn't made up his mind to break ties with the World Government.
After all, there are quite a few people within the Navy who are on the side of the World Government. If this were to actually happen, the Navy would inevitably be thrown into chaos.
But now, the World Government's goal is clearly this ship, no, perhaps more than that, also control of the navy.
If Sengoku could understand it, then Tsuru, as the chief of staff of the navy, could naturally understand it as well.
"What should we do now?"
The Warring States period found this very troublesome.
Lieutenant General Crane also frowned and pondered.
"This is troublesome. The Air Marshal has reappeared, and there are many admirals within the Navy who were promoted by the Air Marshal. Unless he can't get here."
Upon hearing these words from Lieutenant General Tsuru, Sengoku's pupils contracted sharply, but he then considered the feasibility of the matter.
As a Marine Admiral, Kong's strength is terrifying, a fact that Sengoku is well aware of.
"The ship isn't in good condition; it will take at least several months, or even a year, to repair before it can even make its first voyage, so there's no rush. But if the Air Marshal wants to regain control of the navy..."
General Tsuru looked at Sengoku.
"clear!"
After taking a deep breath, Zhan Guo looked up at the middle of the cranes.
"Who should go?"
"We cannot send the navy."
Lieutenant General Crane shook his head.
Even the three generals were Kong's old subordinates.
However, there are very few people within the Navy who can actually do this, only a handful, but none of them are suitable.
"So what do you mean?"
"Hunter's Guild!"
"Lieutenant General Tsuru said in a low voice."
"Huh? Why would they want that?"
"It wasn't them, it was that person."
Lieutenant General Tsuru spoke in a low voice, raising his hand to point into the distance.
A dozen huge screens were projected onto the sea surface between several warships.
"You mean Dunn? He's on Skypiea now."
"He has the ability to travel back and forth quickly, and he also has the capability to do it. As for how to get him to do it, didn't he mention it before?"
Lieutenant General Tsuru spoke calmly, his tone revealing his composure.
"Once it's done, there's no going back."
Zhan Guo sighed.
"There is no choice now. Either you hand over the position of Marshal directly and let the Navy be controlled by the Air Marshal again, then the Navy will definitely receive orders to fight the Hunter Guild to the death."
It might cripple the Hunter's Guild in one fell swoop, but the most likely outcome is that the Navy will cease to exist.
"I am General Crane," he said in a deep voice.
"Too."
Upon hearing this, Zhan Guo raised his hand to rub his temples, looking troubled.
"Would it be possible to have Garp guard this place?"
"No, Sengoku, these are the only two options: one is to withdraw completely and become an observer, and the other is to keep up with the changes to come. No matter what happens in the future, the navy will be needed to maintain order."
Just as that person said, the Hunter's Guild is not suitable to be the maintainer of order; the Navy is the most suitable now.
And at that time, the navy can truly uphold justice.
General Tsuru's last words seemed to have moved Sengoku.
He waved for Lieutenant General Tsuru to leave, and after a moment of silence, he took out a Den Den Mushi.
Vice Admiral Tsuru, who had left, did not wait but went to find Garp.
"Hahaha, as expected of my grandson."
Watching Luffy and Ace quickly defeat more than a dozen opponents on the left and right sides of the screen, he burst into wild laughter.
"Lieutenant General Garp, these two are your grandsons?"
Chaton and Momousagi, standing nearby, were both very curious.
Garp couldn't help but burst into laughter when he saw the two figures in the cut-out screen; he was clearly very happy.
"Of course."
Garp was taken aback for a moment, then immediately nodded.
"That's really good; that ability is somewhat similar to Kuzan's."
General He looked up and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
The scene where Ace freezes his opponent with a single move feels strangely familiar.
"General Kuzan, is this ability really the same as yours?"
Upon hearing this, Momousagi turned to look at Kuzan, who was still sleepy-eyed beside her.
"Pretty much, they should be similar Devil Fruits."
Kuzan seemed to answer casually, but he was actually quite surprised.
This ability is almost exactly the same as when he first ate the fruit.
"I'm going to be the Pirate King!"
As soon as Luffy shouted, the people who were talking, as well as the marines watching the show, all fell silent.
Everyone turned to look at Garp.
