Mu Feng utilized his Wood Style power to create a platform on the sea. Seeing Rayleigh sitting on the ground without any image, Mu Feng smiled and handed him a card. The card was made of wood, painted red all over, with the word "hunter" written on the front and NO.0003 on the back.
"This is a hunter's license. The Hunter's Guild doesn't recognize people, only licenses," Mu Feng explained.
Rayleigh took the hunter's license and looked at it with confusion. "No. Three? Besides you and me, there are other hunters!?" he asked.
"Of course, didn't I mention it? I'm just the vice president," Mu Feng replied with a smile.
"Just the vice president!?" Rayleigh remembered Mu Feng's self-introduction at Xia Qi's rip-off BAR. He became intrigued and asked, "I'm curious, who is the president!?"
"The president?" Mu Feng smiled mysteriously.
After a moment, he said, "Don't worry, you'll meet them sooner or later. And in terms of strength, the chairman is more than ten times stronger than me."
Rayleigh was now even more astonished.
He had just witnessed Mu Feng's strength. Even in a fierce battle with himself, Mu Feng remained calm and composed, not showing any signs of exhaustion. It was evident that he hadn't even unleashed his full power yet, and he already possessed combat abilities on par with the Four Emperors. And now, there was someone even stronger than him, ten times more terrifying. What a... monster!?
Rayleigh couldn't believe that such a formidable existence truly existed in the world. However, he had to accept it. If this terrifying individual before him was willing to submit and had no complaints, it was clear that their power was unimaginable.
"By the way, General Counsel Rayleigh, if the red-haired guy comes to you next time, you can give them some hunter licenses. Our hunters don't care about their status, but there is a minimum requirement. They must possess strong Haki abilities or be capable Devil Fruit users. Swordsmen above the Swordsman level will also suffice. Oh, and the licenses are issued between the 20th and 20th of each month, appointed by the chairman," Mu Feng informed Rayleigh, sharing everything he knew.
Rayleigh listened silently, taking in all the information. When Mu Feng finished speaking, he smiled and said, "So, I was appointed by the chairman himself?"
"Of course, including your background, the chairman informed me. I was shocked when I first heard it. I never expected the renowned 'Pluto' Rayleigh to become a coating artisan in the Chambord Islands," Mu Feng replied honestly.
"Hehe... Is that so? Well, now I look forward to meeting the president," Rayleigh said with a smile.
"Don't worry, there will be an opportunity," Mu Feng assured him.
...............
In the Marine branch base on the Chambord Islands.
Minister of Branch's Office.
Mu Feng held a red hunter's license numbered NO.0004. This license was prepared by Mu Feng for his Marine status, although it wouldn't be used for a long time. At least until the Hunter's Guild became a powerful force recognized by the World Government.
As for the chairman with the No. 0001 license? Mu Feng had no idea who they were. The unknown was always the most terrifying.
Putting away the hunter's license, Mu Feng decided to take a tour of the base.
The Marine bases across the Chambord Islands were currently undergoing intense reconstruction.
"Pollum... Pollum..." Suddenly, the phone worm on the side table rang. It was Marshal Sengoku.
"Marshal Sengoku, what's the matter?" Mu Feng answered.
"Mu Feng, are you currently on the Chambord Islands?" Sengoku asked urgently.
"Yes, what's wrong?" Mu Feng inquired.
"Zephyr, the former Admiral of Headquarters and now the chief instructor of Naval Headquarters, led the Marine practice ship to the New World for a mission and was attacked by pirates. The accident happened in an area very close to the Chambord Islands, which can be reached by passing through the windless zone. Lieutenant General Mu Feng... hurry and go rescue Zephyr in the affected sea area," Sengoku explained anxiously.
"Understood, Master Marshal. I will head there immediately," Mu Feng responded without hesitation.
"Good." Sengoku breathed a sigh of relief on the other end of the phone worm.
Mu Feng's battleship was the latest development by Begapunk. If they traveled at full speed, it would take half a day to reach the accident zone. As a former Admiral, Zephyr was undoubtedly strong enough to hold on for half a day.
And with Mu Feng's Admiral-level strength, he could certainly resolve Zephyr's crisis.
...............
"Guy!" Mu Feng called out after putting down the phone worm.
Within three seconds, Guy appeared before Mu Feng. As his adjutant, Guy was highly capable. Standing straight, he said, "Lord Admiral, please give your orders."
"Within five minutes, have the entire crew board and assemble. We will pass through the windless zone at full speed and reach the New World within five hours," Mu Feng commanded.
"Yes, Lieutenant General." Guy replied without hesitation.
