108. Rob: It's Over, I'm In The Background!
The Marine's fleet is rapidly approaching Jaya Island and Mock Town, and the young generals and elite soldiers on the large warships are all preparing to land and fight!
Shua la la——
Standing on a high place, as the sea breeze blows, the white cloak behind Rob flutters, and his eyes look at the approaching Marine fleet that is about to land. A trace of suspicion flashes in his eyes.
Frowning, he said:
"Just now, Garp's fighting spirit erupted. Although it didn't reach its peak, it definitely meant to challenge me! Why did it dissipate again?"
He pondered for a while.
Rob folded his hands and looked on:
"It must have been stopped! So the Marines came here either to stop this war or to gain benefits from it, thus increasing their reputation?"
"If that's the case, then I can wait a little longer."
He doesn't care about benefits anyway, and when it comes to reputation, the Marines can't take away what belongs to him. If that's the case, why not just wait!
It's rare to meet Garp, and Rob wants to fight him no matter what.
Quickly.
Without Rob stopping them, the Marine warship quickly landed in Mock Town.
Then a large number of Marine soldiers, unaffected by Rob's battle with the four Shichibukai, mainly his battle with Hawkeye, Crocodile, and the pirates still in a coma, as well as bounty hunters and underworld criminals, were all arrested.
During this period, there was also fighting—
Because Daz Bonez and others who fought with Robin, Uta, Makino, and the others still maintained their combat effectiveness, and some guys with a little strength woke up amidst the Marine's big moves.
But those battles were over quickly.
Because there are two powerful Vice Admirals—
Sakazuki, who ate the Magma-Magma Fruit and will soon be promoted to Admiral Akainu; and Kuzan, who ate the Ice-Ice Fruit and will also be promoted to Admiral Aokiji!
With the two of them in action, how much trouble could those stunned guys cause?
And those who resisted were frozen into ice sculptures by Aokiji, ensuring their capture.
When they met Akainu, they were all burned by the magma and turned into scorched corpses!
Quickly.
Accompanied by the arrest and search for survivors, several Marine soldiers came to report the situation on the battlefield to Vice Admiral Tsuru:
"Report! The slightly injured Shichibukai-Hawkeye has been found, and he is now gone."
"Report! Under the ruins, we found the seriously injured Shichibukai-Crocodile!"
"Report! Shichibukai-Donquixote Doflamingo, Death Confirmed! Corpses Included."
"Report! Seriously wounded Shichibukai-Gecko Moria found!"
Looking at the report on the four Shichibukai in hand, Vice Admiral Tsuru's face was serious:
"Four Shichibukai—two were seriously injured, one was slightly injured, and one died! In addition, the reported number of people on board the hundreds of pirate ships sunk by the Angel, as well as the deaths caused by or involving people!"
"It's just this war! That kid directly killed nearly ten thousand people." He really deserves to be called "young devil" by some people!
Kachak, Kachak, Kachak.
Garp, next to her, stuffed senbei into his mouth piece by piece. Hearing the numbers reported by Vice Admiral Tsuru, his face was calm, not feeling the slightest emotion.
As a Marine veteran from the Rocks era and the Roger era, Garp has heard more terrifying battle reports than this one, not once or twice, but so many times that he can't remember clearly.
The only difference is—
Those pirates killed one by one, but when it came to Rob, all the killings were done by him alone, from the time he went to sea until now!
If you do the math carefully—
From Rob's voyage records, the number of people who died in Rob's hands has reached tens of thousands. If it were some large-scale pirate groups, it might not be a big deal.
However, most of these tens of thousands of lives were killed by Rob, and it is even possible that all of them were killed by Rob. This is indeed a little scary, a little appalling.
"He killed all the pirates, and some guys who did all kinds of evil!"
After eating a piece of senbei, Garp had a smile on his face:
"So what does it matter? The villain is not worthy of sympathy! Bwahahaha..."
If justice and evil are simply judged by the number of murders, the Marines may be the most evil existence. There are many Buster Calls recorded in Naval Headquarters.
Not to mention the undocumented Buster Calls.
Every Buster Call, the number of deaths is easily over 10,000!
On massacre?
The Marines— is a real professional team!
"Say a few words less!"
After hearing Garp's words, Vice Admiral Tsuru yelled at him with a headache, and after calming down, she looked at the soldiers beside her:
"Notify everyone, evacuate Jaya Island! At the same time, issue an order to Sakazuki and Kuzan, let them take action! Try to capture Rob alive, and if the other party wants to escape, try to deter him as much as possible!"
After hearing Vice Admiral Tsuru's order, the soldier responded and quickly conveyed her instructions.
Quickly.
Woo
Woo
With the piercing sound of the siren, the Marine soldiers escorting all the pirates and survivors ran towards the warships docked on the shore, returned to the warships at a very fast speed, then left the port, and finally stopped on the sea.
The only warship still parked on the shore is Garp's dog-headed warship.
At the same time—
Rob, who has been observing the Marine's actions, narrowed his eyes slightly, and the corners of his mouth rose, revealing an extremely sunny and handsome smile.
He sneered and said:
"So that's how the Marines want to see me, as one of your qualifications for being promoted to Admiral. You want to see me as a stepping stone and get recognition from me. I see!"
While speaking, Rob glanced left and right and saw two tall figures who had come to his side. They were none other than Sakazuki, formally wearing a red suit and justice coat, and Kuzan, wearing a white suit and the same justice coat.
Two people with Logia fruit abilities, and at the same time, two strong individuals who will become Admirals of Headquarters.
Maybe they are inferior in terms of Haki, Taijutsu, etc., but the powerful field control and output power of Logia fruit users are enough to make them eligible to become Admirals at this time.
As soon as these two people approached, they exuded hostility, even killing intent! It was clearly aimed at him.
Step forward.
Rob looked down at the two who appeared.
With searching eyes, he said:
"Am I correct? Sakazuki and Kuzan!"
Hearing Rob's words, Aokiji looked very serious:
"What you did before is in the past, so there is no need to say more! But this time, you have made too much noise! We can no longer allow you to act recklessly on the sea!"
Going too far?
After hearing Kuzan's words, Rob looked thoughtful:
"In other words—you are here to capture me, but you may not be able to defeat me! And 'Marine Hero' Garp is on the shore to raid me, but it seems he does not intend to make a move!"
"So rather than arresting me, or even killing me, your real goal should be to show me the power of the Marines and the power of the World Government, and give me a warning!"
"At the same time, you want to defeat me, or need a strong opponent, so that you can fully demonstrate your combat power, gain enough reputation, and then be better promoted to Admiral of Headquarters!"
Clap, clap—
There was a pause. Rob raised his hand directly and started clapping.
"It's wonderful! This plan is really wonderful!"
"It doesn't matter what the end result is—you Marines can get quite good benefits! And I and this war will become the background for your promotion to Admiral!"
Either way is fine.
The Marines have a sure-fire deal!
No wonder Sengoku is willing to act with great fanfare, and no wonder even Garp, that old man, is willing to step back and give Sakazuki and Kuzan a platform in front of him!
This battle—
It will be a battle for the replacement of Marine's high-end combat power. Unfortunately, Rob is regarded as the background for the new generation of Marine's high-level combat power, and it is also a shock to him!
Hearing Rob's analysis and seeing his mocking applause, Kuzan didn't say a word. After all, with his character, he didn't like this kind of arrangement, not to mention killing many people.
But all of them are pirates and villains!
The current Kuzan agrees with Garp's sentiment, "the villain is not worthy of sympathy."
If he could avoid it, he wouldn't want to fight Rob!
thud
thud
thud
After Kuzan stopped talking, the taciturn Sakazuki stepped forward directly, the killing intent in his eyes becoming more intense. Kuzan's body was full of fighting intent, while Sakazuki's body exuded an undisguised killing intent.
"Snort."
He snorted coldly.
Akainu looked at Rob with cold eyes:
"Faced with Marine's invitation, you refused repeatedly! But when you turned around, you made friends with a big pirate like Shanks! It's hard for people to believe your position, and you will continue to do so!"
"And the most important thing is—your power is out of control and too powerful! Even if you have not become a criminal now, I think you should be dealt with as a cause of instability as soon as possible!"
