Chapter 21: High-Ranking Marines' Meeting

Of course, the most angry one is [Admiral] Akainu, who's also a Hawk Marine like Doberman.

When Akainu got the news of Doberman's death, he almost wanted to go back to [Paradise] to hunt down Lucifer, but he was suppressed and stopped by Sengoku.

Soon, [Admiral] Kizaru came to the meeting room.

The meeting room was already full of high-ranking Marines, and when they saw Kizaru coming in, several people showed a strange look.

Especially [Fleet Admiral] Sengoku and [Great Staff Officer] Tsuru.

"Oh~ I'm sorry, I'm late." Kizaru smiled wretchedly, walked to his seat, and sat down.

"Okay, everyone is here, the meeting officially begins." Sengoku looked around and threw a stack of documents on the table.

At the same time, the adjutant behind him turned on the projection screen, and a picture of a young man appeared on the screen.

"I called you here this time because of the death of Vice Admiral Doberman. The intelligence agency has found out that the murderer of Doberman is this person!" Sengoku said while pointing at the projection screen.

Many Marine executives in the meeting room looked at the projection screen, and some people picked up the documents on the table to check the information.

"This person's name is Lucifer, he is 23 years old, and he was born in the first half of the Grand Line. We have investigated his life clearly. He is nothing special, just an ordinary person. But not long ago, he suddenly emerged and suddenly possessed extremely powerful strength. We guess that he should have obtained the power of Devil Fruit." Sengoku looked at the document in his hand and continued, "Only Devil Fruit can make an ordinary person stronger quickly, which is not difficult to guess."

"What are his abilities?" A Marine [Vice Admiral] asked a question and continued, "What fruit can make him so strong that he can kill [Vice Admiral] Doberman and thousands of Marine soldiers?"

The power of the Devil Fruit is very clear to everyone. Although some Devil Fruits are terrifying, but it's not exaggerated to the extent.

They are all high-level marines who have experienced countless battles and have also dealt with Devil Fruit users.

They have never heard of any fruit that can make an ordinary person suddenly become so strong. Devil Fruit needs to be developed.

Even if it is Logia, which can make people stronger quickly, it is impossible for an ordinary person to surpass a Marine [Vice Admiral] quickly.

"Doberman is Marine Headquarters' Elite Vice Admiral and knows of Observation Haki and Armament Haki. Even if he meets someone who is a Logia Devil Fruit user, he won't lose easily, let alone be killed in the first half of the Grand Line." said the Marine executive with a puzzled look.

"That's the point of today's meeting." Sengoku waved his hand, and the adjutant behind him immediately put a new photo on the screen.

When the new photos appeared on the screen, the marine executives in the meeting room fell silent for a moment.

"This... how is this possible?"

"Are you kidding me?"

Many Marine executives looked at the photo on the screen, and they were all stunned.

Even [Admiral] Aokiji was stunned, "Arara~ the sea is really not simple."

On the corner, Kizaru, who was sitting leisurely, finally understood why Sengoku and Tsuru looked at him so strangely when he entered the meeting room earlier.

"This is really scary." Kizaru spoke slowly and was also stunned like the others in the room.

What appeared in front of everyone was a photo of Lucifer using light power.

A rain of golden lights poured down and was shot at the three warships in the sea.

The Marine executives present are all familiar with this move because it is 90% similar to Admiral Kizaru's special skill [Yasakani no Magatama]. It can be said that except for the shape of the light, everything else is the same.

"Are you kidding me? There is only one of Light-Light Fruit."

"There's no way for the same Devil Fruit to appear on the sea. Even in the old days there was none."

Many Marine executives looked at Kizaru at the same time, full of doubts. If it wasn't for the accurate photo of Lucifer's face on the screen, they would have suspected that the murderer was Kizaru himself.

"Hey, hey, hey, don't look at me. I'm not a celebrity, and I have nothing to do with this person." Kizaru glanced at others and said slowly.

"It has been confirmed that Lucifer is using the light power, which is almost the same as Kizaru." At this time, Sengoku spoke, breaking the strange atmosphere in the room, and continued, "However, this is not the only power Lucifer can use."

Then, the photo on the screen changed again.

Three photos appeared.

On the screen are pictures of Lucifer using the [Flying Swords], the [Swords Storm], and a [Wind Slash].

(There is a legend in Grand Line that newspaper reporters are the strongest spies. Even the CP organization cannot match them. No matter how secret the photos are, they can take them.)

"At present, we are still unable to determine what kind of Devil Fruit Lucifer ate, and it should be a new Devil Fruit that even in the illustrated book is not recorded, and from these photos, we can see that Lucifer has a lot of power at his disposal. He can control a sword, wind, and light. These are very powerful abilities, but these abilities are on one person. I have to say, he's a very dangerous guy. If he is not eradicated as soon as possible, it will definitely become a serious problem for our Marines in the future." After Sengoku finished speaking, there was a dead silence in the meeting room.

Many Marine executives all looked serious, and a dangerous, murderous aura emitted in the meeting room.

Although the information currently available is not complete, the threat of Lucifer has been revealed.

The opinions of many Marine executives unanimously reached an agreement. Lucifer must be eradicated as soon as possible!
