Chapter 51 : Blaze's conflicted emotion

Blaze was unusually angry.

Seeing it in a screen is world apart from seeing it in front of his eyes , so he himself was a little confused how to react. Since he knows thee world government better than the others so he was unsure whom he should blame the pirates who are committing it or the marines who are incompetent due to interference from the world government.

He remembered the small island where he had first opened his eyes in this world.

The two islands are about the same size and the number of people on the islands is also about the same. Both are towns with only a few hundred people.

If that small island also becomes like this, those who are familiar and close to him will suffer this tragic situation...

Blaze was furious just thinking about it.

After listening to Blaze, Zephyr was silent for a long time.

"Marine may indeed be incompetent. The old man cannot refute this but the old man can guarantee that Marine will never turn a blind eye and refuse to send soldiers."

"The reason why we can know the situation of this island is that a person on this small island flee desperately before passing the news and we came to know from that."

"You don't need to say this to me ."

Blaze walked past him, "I only believe what I see myself."

As Blaze walked to the battlefield, he slowly pulled out Raikiri from his back.

He was too silent at that time.

......

"He Jie Jie Jie, as long as there is blood around me, I will never lose!"

The hideous pirate captain Miyazuki of the ghost hand pirates waved his pair of beastly ghost hands and threw away a sucked corpse and then grinned at Ain.

Ain jumped back to avoid the blow.

From the sideline Binz used his fruit power to accelerate the growth of vines which entwined towards Miyazuki.

But it was easily pulled to pieces by Miyazuki.

"Tempest Kick!"

Ain sent another attack from her side.

Miyazuki managed to block it easily with his hand. Although the white slashing wave managed to cut a wound on the giant hand, it was quickly repaired by wisps of blood around him.

"Hee Jie Jie Jie, it's useless!!"

Miyazuki grinned at Ain. "Your attack is useless to me, but I only have to touch you and you are done! I haven't tasted the blood of a beautiful Marine girl yet!"

Ain squeezed the sword in her hand and a tricky color flashed in her eyes.

To use her devil fruit power she needs to touch that guy's body.

But if she gets close to him, she will be touched by his ghost hands and her blood will be sucked away.

And... her current devil fruit ability can only set him back three years at most.

If she want him to lose the ability to fight, she's afraid she need to touch him many times.

This guy... does he really only has the strength of 37 million belly?

"Die!"

Miyazuki waved his huge right hand and tried to grab Ain with his hand.

Ain gritted her teeth slightly then squeezed the handle of the sword with both hands and was about to fight him.

"Get out of the way."

A childish voice rang in her ears.

Then she saw a small figure passing by her, holding Raikiri shining with electricity and walking towards Miyazuki who was waving his right hand.

"Blaze?"

Ain's eyes widened slightly and then she seemed to react and immediately shouted: "Be careful with his hands, don't touch..."

"Haki strengthened."

"Sun breathing technique , Fifth form : Setting Sun Transformation."

After whispering in a low voice, Blaze appeared in mid-air for a moment, standing upside down.

With the invisible Haki entwined in his hands and Raikiri which was blazing like the sun, he cut out in the air.

Ain saw an arc-shaped slash that looked like a golden thread flashing away.

Next second.

A strong wave of hot air stirred her hair.

boom!

The hands of Miyazuki hit the ground heavily.

Ain looked dull.

" my...my hand.. my hand?!"

Before Miyazaki could realize what was happening, a sharp pain struck him suddenly and he realized that his arms had disappeared and were cut off by the sword.

A fiery flame ignited at the fracture and the pain of burning wound was simply unbearable!

Blaze, who fell to the ground from mid-air, didn't even bother to see the horror of Miyazuki.

With a blank expression on his face, he returned the sword to its sheath and in Ain's surprised and dull eyes, as if nothing had happened, he stepped towards the warship.

.........

All the members of the Ghost hand Pirate Group including Miyazuki were arrested to appease the tortured and humiliated civilians on the island. After recording the location of the island with the record pointer, the warship slowly left the island. .

Inside Zephyr's room.

Ain gave her reports to Zephyr.

Zephyr was recording and after listening to Ain's description of the Miyazuki's ghost hand ability, Zephyr frowned slightly.

"According to what you said, the strength of Miyazuki is definitely more than 37 million Belly."

"Teacher, I went to check. The bounty offered towards Miyazuki was 4 years ago and it has not been updated for four years."

Ain said.

"In four years, his devil fruit powers have been developed further...this is not surprising,"

At this point, Zephyr took off his sunglasses and pinched his eyebrows with a hint of annoyance in his tone.

"Unexpectedly, we haven't noticed what this ghost hand pirate ship was doing for four years. Marine... is it really the same as that kid said, becoming more and more incompetent."

"Teacher, how much bounty can Miyazuki reach with his current strength?"

Ain asked.

"According to your description, his current strength can reach at least 60 million belly."

"Sixty Million Belly..."

Ain was surprised.

"The pirate leader with a bounty close to 60 million was defeated by Blaze in a single blow... It's really unexpected. It turns out that his strongest card is his swordsmanship."

Zephyr couldn't help sighing.

Listening to his sigh, Ain's expression was complicated and she couldn't help but remember that beautiful slash in her mind.

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, it would be hard to believe that the slash came from an 11-year-old boy.

"What is he doing now?"

Zephyr looked at Ain and asked.

"I saw him practicing shave on the deck when I came."

"How is it?"

"Hmm...it seems to be the same as before."

Zephyr nodded when he heard this.

"I see, you go back first."

"Yes."

After Ain left.

Zephyr took out the den den mushi and dialed Marine headquarters.

"Sengoku? This is Zephyr."

"Zephyr, what's the matter?"

Sengoku's voice came from the den den mushi and his attitude was fairly mild.

"I want you to send some troops to station on an island."

"What happened?"

Zephyr told Sengoku the whole thing.

After Sengoku listened, he was silent for a while:

"This is indeed our Marine's negligence, but since the pirates have been caught, there is no need to send troops."

"No need? Marine's negligence has caused them to completely lose their trust. Shouldn't it be remedied in time to make these people who have been victimised believe in justice again?"

Zephyr was little annoyed.

Sengoku's voice became low:

"Zephyr, we Marine don't have too many troops now. If we station troops on each of these remote small islands, how can we maintain justice and suppress the increasing number of pirates in the entire sea?"

"Sengoku, I know, but there is a lot of extra Marine stationed in Mary Geoise..."

Before Zephyr could finish speaking, Sengoku's cold voice rang in the den den mushi.

"Zephyr! Needless to say, the troops stationed in the World government are never allowed to be mobilized. Since the mission is over return to headquarters."

Di di di di.

"Sengoku...you don't have civilians in your eyes, only the World government?"

Zephyr gritted his teeth and hit the corner of the table with his fist, breaking it.

Then he thought about what the boy said on the island.

"I did see the evil of the pirates but at the same time I also saw the incompetence of Marine."
