051 New World Change

The following day, 

Blackbeard tasked Burgess and the rest to capture two nearby pirate groups. Their job was to clean up, as the entire eastern coast of Beehive Island was full of corpses.

"Hiss!"

The captured pirates took a deep breath upon seeing the island's condition. Some even vomited on the spot.

More people gazed at the corpses on Beehive Island, their faces filled with shock.

They focused on just 11 Blackbeard Pirates. Were these few responsible for all the corpses?

Burgess frowned as he looked at the pirates standing aside, then kicked one of them.

"Are you the only pirate left in the New World?"

"If not, then clean up these corpses quickly, or you can go down and accompany these people."

Upon hearing his words, the captured workers were so frightened that they froze in fear.

Cleaning up these corpses seemed a small price to pay for their own lives. 

They quickly got to work as fast as they can, feeling if they late maybe they is the one who got clean up

"Captain Blackbeard, is there anything else you'd like to order?" 

Burgess inquired after finishing his task, approaching Blackbeard.

"Good job, now we can just wait for these people to die"

Blackbeard said casually.

Upon hearing his words, beads of sweat formed on the foreheads of the nearby workers. They glanced cautiously at Blackbeard. Was he the captain of this pirate's crew?

At that moment, Blackbeard was among them, and in their eyes, he had transformed into a devil capable of all sorts of wicked deeds.

...

On this day, the news spread in the New World through newspapers that Blackbeard had defeated the Witch Pirates, causing quite a stir with his actions!

Marineford .

In a huge conference room.

Fleet Admiral Sengoku stared at the newspaper in his hand, his expression serious as he spoke with anger:

"Blackbeard, that damn bastard!"

"Indeed, he's gotten even more unrestrain in the New World" 

Garp added from the side.

"It looks like we've allowed a pirate to slip away who shouldn't have been let go" 

Akainu said with an expressionless face.

"Blackbeard's move was really crazy. In order to kill the witch, he chose to eliminate 5,000 pirates on the island!" 

Even the usually indifferent Kizaru couldn't help but marvel.

Aokiji simply gazed at the newspaper in his hand, his expression serious, without uttering a word.

The other Vice Admirals in the room shared a somber mood, expressing deep concern about Blackbeard. The onlookers, too, were extremely worried.

At that moment, Akainu turned his gaze toward Sengoku, his eyes filled with murderous intent

"Let me go after the Blackbeard Pirates"

"No, that's close to Whitebeard's territory. With Whitebeard gone, that place is on the brink of becoming the next battlefield" 

Sengoku decisively rejected Akainu.

"This time, I gathered everyone here just to hear your opinion. I'm already getting old, and the position of Fleet Admiral is no longer suitable for me"

As soon as Sengoku said this, the marines in the room lifted their heads one by one, staring at him in disbelief.

"Fleet Admiral Sengoku..."

"No need for words; this era no longer belongs to me. Perhaps the next Fleet Admiral will do better after I step down" 

Sengoku added.

After the marine meeting, Garp accompanied Sengoku to his office.

"Have you truly made up your mind, Sengoku?"

Garp inquired.

"I have decided. I have no desire to fight anymore."

Sengoku suddenly seemed to be much older. His face was full of exhaustion.

"I heard the World Government has begun recruiting civilians. Even if I retire, there will soon be more capable individuals to protect the navy. Besides, you're still around in the marines, aren't you, Garp?"

"Hahaha!"

With that, Sengoku burst into laughter.

"The Marines can't do without you. I can't handle the kind of work you do. It's too much of a hassle"

Garp said, pinching his nostrils.

"Let's set that aside for now. Right now, I'm just suggesting retirement. Those five elders won't let go of the Fleet Admiral position easily!"

Sengoku waved his hand and then picked up the newspaper. As he gazed at Blackbeard's laughing image, he gradually wiped away his smile.

"I can't shake the feeling that he targeted one of those pirates intentionally. I'm afraid it's going to cause another uproar in the New World!"

...

Now, the news that Blackbeard massacred Beehive Island has spread throughout the New World.

It was like a bomb exploding in the New World. 

The newspaper reached the hands of numerous pirate groups, sparking discussions and causing anger among countless pirate crews!

"I want to avenge my dead brothers! Did he really think he can become the new Yonko just by taking down the injured Whitebeard in the Summit War? Ridiculous!"

"Are the Blackbeard Pirates declaring war on us once more? What an arrogant fellow!"

"They wiped out the Witch Pirates with just 11 people? Let's form an alliance to confront him, take him down first, and then join forces to eliminate the remnants of Whitebeard and claim his throne!"

"Hahaha, Blackbeard has indirectly worked in our favor. Without him, our pirate group might not have come together. When we set aside our differences and unite, what force in this New World can prevent us from seizing... Whitebeard's throne?"

"And if you capture Blackbeard, you might know his secret to having multiple fruit abilities."

"It's quite interesting. If the Blackbeard Pirates manage to overcome this challenge, it's unlikely anyone can rival them for Whitebeard's throne, even though it seems a bit unrealistic!"

"Hahaha! There's something exciting to look forward to!"

...

At this moment, the developments in the New World unfolded just as Blackbeard had wished, with numerous pirate groups setting their sights on Beehive Island!
