Upon returning to base, Tashigi quickly called Marine Headquarters and reported the situation to Fleet Admiral Sengoku.
After listening to the story silently, the Warring States Marshal calmly said, "I understand. Let's leave it at that. I will handle this person personally."
"May 13"
After hanging up the phone, Fleet Admiral Sengoku summoned Admiral Kizaru.
"The man who killed one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea has appeared in Loguetown. Go there and bring him back to me. Also, Nico Robin, the Devil Child, is with him. Bring her back as well."
"A thug who killed one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea and a demon child, what a terrifying combination."
Kizaru said this, but he did not refuse. He turned into a beam of light and disappeared from Marine Headquarters in an instant.
Meanwhile, after defeating Smoker and his group, Lowe did not leave Loguetown immediately, but continued to stroll around Loguetown with Nico Robin.
He wouldn't easily change his form for outsiders, not even Smoker.
Knowing Rowe's strength, Nico Robin wasn't afraid and leisurely followed beside him.
The two of them acted as if they were on a picnic, not like wanted criminals with bounties on their heads.
Several hours passed.
Just as the two were strolling down the street, a beam of light descended from the sky and landed in front of them, transforming into a man.
The man had short, slightly curly black hair. He wore sunglasses, had a stubble on his face, was tall and thin, and wore a yellow and white striped suit, a purple tie, a dark green shirt, and white leather shoes.
Nico Robin saw the newcomer and said with a smile, "Boss, how about it? A Marine Admiral has appeared."
Luo Wei calmly replied, "It doesn't matter."
Kizaru laughed. He had seen many pirates, but he had never seen anyone as arrogant as Rowe, as if a Marine Admiral was nothing in front of him.
"That's really scary."
Kizaru said slowly, "Have you ever been kicked at the speed of light?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Wei glanced at him sideways and said, "Are you pretending to be a Saint Seiya?"
Kizaru was taken aback. What were Saint Seiya? Never mind, it's not important. Let's take these two back first.
He instinctively wanted to activate the power of his Devil Fruit and kick Rowe away, but in the instant he moved, Kizaru was surprised to find that his Devil Fruit could not be activated.
Not only could his Devil Fruit not be activated, but all his power had also vanished without a trace.
My whole body felt like it was bound by sea stone, limp and without any strength.
Just standing there was an effort I was putting in.
Kizaru was greatly surprised. What was going on?
"What did you do?"
Kizaru stared at Lovi in horror. A Marine Admiral couldn't even use his abilities in front of him. This was terrifying.
Given my current physical condition, a single bullet could easily kill me.
He hadn't felt so powerless in a very, very long time.
Luo Wei stepped forward, kicked Kizaru to the ground, and stepped on the man's chest, saying, "You dare to rush in without even knowing the enemy's abilities? You're pretty reckless."
"I'm curious, who gave you the courage to be so arrogant in front of me?"
"Is it his status as a Marine Admiral, or the power of the Glint-Glint Fruit?"
Kizaru didn't speak because Rowe's kick was getting stronger and stronger, making it hard for him to breathe, let alone speak.
Luo Wei snorted coldly, "I won't kill you today, but I'll give you a small punishment as a warning. I've sealed your Glint-Glint Fruit. I want to see if you're qualified to be a Marine Admiral without it."
After saying that, Lovi left a power inside Kizaru's body, sealing the latter's Glint-Glint Fruit, and then got up and left.
Nico Robin smiled slightly, "Remember to increase the bounty on the BOSS when we get back. The BOSS is very unhappy that you put a bounty of 100 million Berries on him."
Kizaru: ...
After Lovi and Nico Robin left, Kizaru got up from the ground. He hadn't been this disheveled in a long time.
The gaze directed at Luo Wei was filled with apprehension and an unprecedented gloom...
Light-speed kick.
Yasakani no Magatama.
Kizaru tried several times, but none of the moves that used to come naturally to him could be used now.
Just as Loewy said, his Glint-Glint Fruit was sealed.
This is very annoying.
Without the power of the Glint-Glint Fruit, he wouldn't be able to hold onto his position as an admiral, since he relies too much on his fruit's abilities.
"How terrifying." This time, Kizaru said this sincerely, then took out a Den Den Mushi and made a call to Fleet Admiral Sengoku.
"Hello, hello, have you caught the person?" Marshal Zhan Guo asked immediately after answering the phone.
Kizaru was silent for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said helplessly, "I'm sorry, Fleet Admiral Sengoku, I have failed."
"Huh? Why?"
The Sengoku period admiral was puzzled. How could a naval admiral make a mistake when he himself took action? That shouldn't be the case.
Kizaru said, "The target has a special ability that can suppress the abilities of Devil Fruit users. I got within a few meters of the target without making any contact, but it felt like I was being bound by Seastone."
"Not only did he have no strength at all, but he was also unable to use his abilities."
Marshal Sengoku was dumbfounded. "Hey, hey, hey, you're kidding, right, Borsalino?"
If even a Marine Admiral can be suppressed, then what are other Devil Fruit users?
“I’m not joking, Marshal of the Warring States Period.”
Kizaru said with a wry smile, "3.5 Facing this guy, I couldn't even run away. I was easily knocked to the ground, and now even my Glint-Glint Fruit has been sealed."
"Send someone to pick me up; I have no way to return to Marine Headquarters."
Warring States Period: ...
He was rendered speechless by Kizaru's words.
The Glint-Glint Fruit has been sealed away?
He had never heard of Devil Fruits being able to be sealed. If it were someone else, he would definitely think they were talking nonsense.
However, the person who said this was Kizaru, a Marine Admiral. Fleet Admiral Sengoku knew very well that although Kizaru was a bit lazy, he would never joke with him on important matters.
Since he said that, then the Glint-Glint Fruit must have been sealed away.
Can an admiral who has lost his Devil Fruit powers still hold onto his position?
Sengoku didn't know, but the most urgent task was to bring Kizaru back as soon as possible.
22. An unexpected encounter with Garp
"I understand. I will send someone to pick you up. You can stay in Loguetown for now."
After a moment of silence, Sengoku spoke, hung up the phone, and immediately contacted Garp. If he remembered correctly, Garp seemed to be near the East Blue.
After the call connected, Garp's signature ominous voice rang out, "Sengoku, what's up?"
Sengoku asked, "Garp, where are you now?"
Garp said, "We've entered the Grand Line and are on our way back to Marine Headquarters. What's wrong?"
Sengoku said, "You should immediately return to the East Sea, go to Loguetown, and bring Borsalino back."
"Borusalino?" Garp was completely bewildered. Borusalino was much faster than his ship. Was he mistaken for someone else to pick up this monkey?
Could it be that Kizaru was seriously injured and unable to use his abilities?
"What's going on, the Warring States period?"
Sengoku didn't hide anything from his comrade, "Borusalino went to deal with the murderer who killed Crocodile 03, but his Devil Fruit power was sealed by the other party."
"What? Crocodile is dead? Borsalino's powers are sealed? How is this possible?"
Whether Crocodile lives or dies is of no concern to him; he's just a pirate after all.
Even the Seven Warlords of the Sea are still pirates.
Garp looked down on these pirates.
However, the fact that Kizaru's ability was sealed really shocked Garp. "A Devil Fruit ability can actually be sealed? Isn't that a bit outrageous, Sengoku?"
“I know, but it’s true. Borsalino wouldn’t lie to me about something like this.”
Garp thought about it and agreed. As a Marine Admiral, Kizaru knew perfectly well that some things couldn't be joked about.
"I understand, I'll go back right away."
Sengoku nodded, then added, "If you encounter someone who has sealed Borsalino on the road, do not engage in conflict with them. We do not yet know their strength."
"If you fail, it will not be good for the Navy."
Garp grunted and picked his nose, saying, "Enough with the nagging. I'll consider it."
After saying that, he hung up the phone with Zhan Guo.
Inside the Marine Headquarters, Sengoku couldn't help but sigh. He had done what he needed to do, and now he could only pray that Garp wouldn't run into that guy.
But sometimes things just happen by chance.
When Garp turned the ship around and headed aggressively towards the East China Sea.
Loewy also left Loguetown and set off for the Grand Line.
Finally, the two met at the foot of Upside Down Mountain.
When Rowe saw the dog's head flying on the naval flag, he knew that the person on board was Garp.
At the same time, Karp also saw Rowe.
But he didn't know that Loew was the one who sealed Kizaru's Devil Fruit power.
He didn't recognize Rowe until he saw Nico Robin and, after being reminded by his adjutant, he realized it.
Karp immediately became interested, leaped into the air, used Moonwalk to approach Rowe, and finally landed on the bow of Rowe's ship.
“I heard from the adjutant that it was you who sealed Borsalino’s power.”
Luo Wei gave a lazy "hmm" and said, "Did you need something?"
Garp said, "Yes, come with me and let's break the seal."
"Why should I?" Luo Wei retorted.
Garp laughed loudly, "With just my two fists."
He swung his fist, black Armament Haki covering both arms, and smashed it down on Rovi.
This punch was so powerful that it shattered the air, producing a muffled thud. The violent shockwave swept towards Luo Wei like a tsunami, demonstrating just how ferocious the punch was.
Luo Wei calmly said, "Done!"
In an instant, a three-dimensional barrier appeared out of thin air, instantly enveloping Garp and trapping him inside.
Garp slammed his fist into the barrier, producing a muffled boom.
The barrier remained unmoved.
Garp was stunned for a moment. This barrier felt even harder than the eight mountains he had leveled with his fists.
Unconvinced, Garp swung his fist again and slammed it towards the barrier.
Fist-bone impact!
A terrifying burst of Armament Haki erupted, striking the barrier like a meteor. A violent explosion followed, but the barrier remained completely unshaken.
It is even more robust.
Luo Wei calmly said, "Don't bother. The barrier has the function of absorbing kinetic energy. In other words, the harder you attack, the more stable the barrier will be, and the longer it will last."
"If you don't want to be trapped inside for a year and starve to death within the barrier, you'd better stop attacking."
No sooner had Luo Wei finished speaking than Garp's fists began to pound the barrier one after another.
Lo Wei: ...
