Chapter 40: White Beret Troops, Straw Hat Pirates in Danger!

Garp's veins bulged on his forehead.

Even though he wasn't speaking, anyone could feel his murderous intent at the moment.

Akainu, Kizaru, Aokiji, and even Doflamingo and the other Seven Warlords of the Sea couldn't help but shudder!

Although they had never fought Garp, his reputation and achievements were well-known!

Despite only being a vice-admiral, he was a legendary figure in the navy!

Recognized by all as a hero of the navy!

Although he hadn't consumed a Devil Fruit, he possessed an incredibly powerful Armament Haki!

Those terrifying iron fists were his most lethal weapons!

Defeating the Rocks Pirates, pushing Pirate King Gol D. Roger to the brink several times, and capturing Golden Lion Shiki...

Each accomplishment was world-shaking!

Pirates and marines alike admired him deeply!

If it weren't for Garp's reluctance to be promoted, his achievements and prestige might have made him the Fleet Admiral instead of Sengoku.

That's why the three Admirals and the Seven Warlords of the Sea had no doubt.

If Garp truly left the room to go to Skypiea...

No matter how powerful Enel, the so-called God of Skypiea, might be, there would be only one outcome: death!

As for the difficulty of traveling to Skypiea...

If Garp wanted to, it probably wouldn't be a problem at all.

Even Akainu and Mihawk thought so, and Sengoku, Garp's longtime partner, knew it even more clearly.

Enel's death would be a small matter, but given Garp's temper, if he went there...

It would likely be a massive catastrophe!

Skypiea might even be destroyed in the process!

By then, the matter would undoubtedly shake the world and affect the World Government!

No way!

He couldn't let Garp go!

"Garp, calm down!"

"Let's not even talk about how much time it would take you to get to Skypiea."

"The events in the video are still in the future and haven't happened yet. Why are you so anxious?"

Garp was furious, "It hasn't happened yet, which is why I want to eliminate the threat before Luffy encounters such a crisis!"

"I will not allow Luffy to be threatened!"

"Anyone who threatens my grandson's life deserves to die!"

This overbearing statement left everyone shocked...

Moria was scared out of his wits!

Damn, was this old man really that terrifying?

When he was fighting Luffy before, Garp seemed unconcerned and carefree...

Was he secretly considering whether or not to kill Moria all along?

If Moria had threatened Luffy's life in the video, would Garp have killed him to eliminate the threat as he wanted to now?

Moria's legs went weak...

Enel was in Skypiea, so far away, and Garp was already thinking about going there to kill him.

Moria was right at the Marine Headquarters, right in front of Garp!

If Garp wanted to kill him, he wouldn't even have to move – one punch would probably be more than Moria could handle!

Damn...

At this thought, Moria went numb.

Suddenly, he felt somewhat relieved that Luffy had defeated him...

If the outcome had been reversed, Moria would have been in danger.

Compared to being killed by Garp on the spot, Moria would rather accept defeat by Luffy.

At least the latter was only a loss of face, whereas the former might cost him his life!

Listening to Garp's words, Sengoku's forehead was covered in cold sweat.

"Don't you have any faith in your grandson?"

"What if the outcome is completely different from what you think, and Luffy wins the battle?"

"Besides, this is a future event, and you haven't even seen the whole fight!"

"Even if you watch the entire battle, it's not too late to make a decision then!"

Perhaps fearing that his words wouldn't convince Garp, Sengoku quickly racked his brain and spoke up again:

"Here's the deal, if after watching this battle, Enel truly threatens Luffy's life..."

"Even if we can't officially arrest Enel with the Navy's authority, I'll step down from my position as Fleet Admiral and accompany you to Skypiea to capture Enel!"

"What do you think?"

Though he didn't believe Luffy could win, for now, it was best to appease Garp first!

Sengoku's words left Akainu, Mihawk, and others momentarily stunned.

Wow...

He's going all in?

He's even willing to give up his position as Fleet Admiral to go after someone?

These two really are close friends...

Garp's strength was already terrifying, and Sengoku was no slouch either.

Once the two joined forces, Enel was as good as dead!

Hearing this, Garp's anger gradually subsided...

He realized he had indeed been too impulsive.

How could he have already determined that Luffy would lose before the fight even started?

Though the odds in this battle were heavily against Luffy, who faced a formidable enemy...

He was still Garp's grandson!

What if he created a miracle?

With these thoughts in mind, Garp nodded, finally letting go of the idea of heading to Skypiea immediately.

This brought relief to Sengoku and the others as well...

Meanwhile, the images in the sky continued to play...

[Upon learning about the dangerous situation she and her companions were in, Nami desperately pulled Luffy and Zoro toward the pirate ship's location, intending to inform Robin and the others to leave Skypiea immediately.]

[However, unbeknownst to them, at that moment, the people of Skypiea had already arrived where Robin, Sanji, Usopp, and the rest were!]

[A group of soldiers wearing white berets from Skypiea surrounded everyone, even the pirate ship...]
