Now that Grandpa is here, these Marines can be taken to Enies Lobby by his warship.
As for the Dragon, he must die. If he doesn't, the Dragon Pirates won't be wiped out, and Finn won't receive his reward.
Without hesitation, Finn picked up Nami's staff and poked the Dragon's head.
The Dragon was dead.
Ding! "Congratulations, Host! You've received the reward: Advanced Armament Haki!"
At that moment, an indescribable aura surged through Finn's body, spreading throughout. His entire presence transformed, like that of a seasoned warrior who had survived countless battles.
When Bogart arrived and saw the dead members of the Dragon Pirates, he was puzzled.
"Did Master Finn really do all this?" Bogart wondered.
Finn was only 17 years old—could he really have killed so many murlocs by himself?
But now, he suddenly felt a powerful aura emanating from Finn's body, the kind that only the strong possess. It was Haki!
"At such a young age, he already has Haki! Is this what they call talent?" Bogart thought with a bitter smile.
Bogart himself had followed Garp for many years across the South and North, which is how he had reached his current level. But Finn was already so powerful at such a young age.
It made Bogart feel a bit envious.
But then, he remembered that Finn's father was Monkey D. Dragon, and his grandfather was Monkey D. Garp. With such impressive lineage, it wasn't surprising that Finn was also extraordinary.
"Finn, you little rascal! You promised to come with me to Naval Headquarters, but you snuck away halfway! I'm telling you, you agreed to become a Marine, and you're not backing out of it!"
Garp rushed over, his face full of anger. If it weren't for Finn's life card, Garp wouldn't have been able to find him.
"Vice Admiral...!"
Colonel Mouse, who was nearby, started shaking the moment he saw Garp.
"What's going on here?"
Garp frowned slightly, still picking his nose, as he looked at Colonel Mouse.
"Vice Admiral, these two men have been killing innocent people indiscriminately. My subordinates were preparing to bring them to justice!" Colonel Mouse quickly tried to pin the blame.
"Killing innocents?"
Garp looked around at the bodies and recognized them as murloc pirates. He frowned and turned to Bogart. "Did you do this?"
Bogart smiled wryly. "No, Vice Admiral, it was Master Finn."
"Finn?!"
Garp stretched his neck forward, his eyes wide with surprise.
Did Finn really have this kind of power?
Garp glared at Finn. "You brat! What the hell is going on here?"
"Grandpa, you wouldn't believe me if I told you. Let Nami explain."
Finn set Nami down from his shoulders. "Tell my grandfather what you know."
Nami was irritated by Finn's commanding tone, but since he had saved her village, she reluctantly agreed.
She then recounted all the crimes of the Dragon and the corruption of Colonel Mouse.
"Rubbish! You're talking nonsense! I'll kill you now!"
Colonel Mouse, enraged, drew his sword and lunged at Nami.
Boom!
Bogart's scabbard struck Colonel Mouse in the stomach, causing him to collapse in pain.
Finn addressed the Marine soldiers, "You've all committed capital crimes! But now, I'm offering a way out! Whoever reports the most crimes committed by Colonel Mouse will be spared the death penalty and sent to prison instead!"
The Marines panicked. They knew they couldn't cause trouble with Vice Admiral Garp here. Even if they said nothing, the villagers of Cocosia Village would soon be questioned.
It was better to fight for a chance to survive.
"Last month, Colonel Mouse helped the Dragon deal with some disobedient villagers by throwing them into the sea to feed the fish."
"Three days ago, Colonel Mouse killed the daughter of the headman of Lufu Village."
"He's been protecting the Dragon for years!"
...
The Marine soldiers quickly confessed.
Garp soon understood the situation.
"As a Marine, not only did you fail to serve the people, but you also aided tyrants! You disgrace the word 'justice'! Take them all away!" Garp ordered angrily.
"Yes, sir!"
The Marine soldiers who had arrived with Garp immediately took Colonel Mouse and his gang into custody.
Finn glanced at Colonel Mouse. This man had committed heinous crimes and couldn't be left alive. But with Grandpa here, it was difficult to act.
Later, when they got on the warship, Finn would find an opportunity to dispose of him.
Garp looked at Finn again. "So, you're here to help the villagers?"
Garp's blood pressure had soared, thinking Finn was trying to run away. But now that he realized his grandson had come to do good, he was relieved. It seemed his grandson really was Marine material.
Finn lifted his head. "That's right! I want to be the Marine King. If I don't punish evil, how can I claim that title?"
With that, Finn hoisted Nami onto his shoulders again. "Let's go, back to the warship."
Garp, slightly taken aback, pointed at Nami and asked, "What's going on here?"
"Oh, Grandpa, I took her with me. She's going to be my navigator," Finn said casually.
Pfft~
Bogart, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Did he say "took"?
Master Finn's methods sure are unconventional.
