Silence!
Deadly silence!
At this moment, the faces of many senior Marine executives present are filled with deep shock.
Even Kizaru, one of the three admirals who have always been very vague, cannot help but be moved.
In the first half of the Grand Line, the cause of the pirate riots with hundreds of thousands of them turned out to be that old man!
Is this him?
Is it a lie?
Throughout the history of pirates, no person caused a pirate upheaval on such a large scale!
You can't say no, the pirates that Roger was executed decades ago have been so crazy!
But why is that?
It was Roger who told the world that he had left the treasure on Raftel when he was tortured, and that made the pirates so mad that they ran to Grand Line!
And this time!
Just because the old man's 1.5 billion bounty has driven the pirates in the first half of the Grand Line crazy!
And the degree of madness is no less than when Roger started the Grand Pirate era!
This is just too amazing!
Even Sengoku himself didn't expect that the bounty he set for the old man would cause such a huge wave in Grand Line.
"It's really unbelievable."
Zephyr smacked his lips.
With only a 1.5 billion bounty, there was a huge noise.
If he heard it with his own ears, he wouldn't believe it.
"I didn't expect it to be for this reason!"
Garp also spoke.
Even before the arrival of the Shiki, the golden lion at Marineford that year, Garp was not too moved, but this time he was surprised.
"It seems we underestimated the lure of the 1.5 billion bounty!"
He opened his mouth and said. "Think it through. Our Marine offered an 80-year-old man a reward of 1.5 billion berries. Even the newspaper written by the Morgans guy described the old man's strength in a very powerful way. I think there will still be many people who will take this risk and try!"
"After all, a head worth 1.5 billion berries, if you can win it, you will almost have no worries in your life!"
Sengoku asked the Tsuru. "Do we need to reduce that old gentleman's bounty?"
Reducing the bounty is almost never seen in the history of pirates. It has always only ever increased a person's bounty, but there has never been a lower bounty!
But this time, Sengoku wanted to do it!
After all, the cause of this incident was due to the 1.5 billion berries bounty set by the old man!
If it can be reduced, it can alleviate the situation!
Even the pirates who are silent about this are very capable.
"There is no need!
Tsuru shook his head. "If a person's reward is reduced for fear of affecting the outside world, our Marine's prestige will be affected to some extent!"
"Besides, since we know that the pirate riots in the first half of Grand Line were due to that old man, we don't have to worry about harming ordinary people anymore!"
"After all, their target is the old man, so the consequences of the riot are but two, that is, either the old man was killed by the pirate or the pirate was killed by the old man!"
"So it doesn't matter from that perspective, there is absolutely no need to reduce the reward!"
Tsuru's analysis brought a sigh of relief to many senior executives.
Including Sengoku as well!
He sat back and the worry on his face disappeared.
Indeed!
Tsuru's analysis is correct.
Since it was aimed at that old man's head, they need not worry at all!
"Although the pirate riots this time won't have much of an impact, I honestly didn't expect it because that old man actually drove the pirates in the first half of the Grand Line crazy!"
After feeling relieved, Zephyr spoke up.
"Yes!"
Garp laughed. "Looking at the whole history of pirates, there's only one example! Haha! The old man's influence is really great!"
"Garp! Can you still laugh?
Sengoku looked at Garp.
"He didn't say it won't have much impact, so why can't you laugh?"
"Ha ha!"
Sengoku's eyes looked at who Garp didn't care, he became even more unscrupulous.
Seeing Garp's laughter, she shook her head and then went back to scanning the people in front of her. "Let's not talk about this problem! Tell me about this old man!"
As soon as Tsuru said this, the many Marine executives present looked at her!
As a Marine chief of staff, Tsuru's strength may not be considered strong among the people present, but in this kind of high-level meeting, many people are still willing to listen to her words.
He stroked his thoughts and then said. "Since the old man left Arabasta with Nico Robin half a year ago, there has been no news for half a year since then, even if we made multiple inquiries at Marine, we did not find the old gentleman."
"Where did he go and what did he do in the last six months, isn't everyone here curious?"
When Tsuru said this, everyone was silent.
Then Zephyr opened his mouth and said. "We really want to know where the old man disappeared and what we did, but there's no way to investigate this kind of thing!".
"Besides, you said it, Tsuru. Our Marine Corps hasn't found the old man's trail after investigating for half a year, let alone know what the old man did in the last six months of disappearance!"
Tsuru said. "Zephyr, I understand what you said! But, after all, that old man's identity is not ordinary. It has something to do with two of the Four Emperors, it has something to do with the revolutionary army, and it also involves many huge forces! "
"So even if it's impossible to find out, we must check it out!"
"Maybe if we know where the old man has been and what he's been doing for the past six months, we can find out why he's involved in so much power!"
Zephyr frowned and then asked. "Then how are you going to check it out, Tsuru!".
"You don't need to worry about this, I'll check it out!"
After saying this, Tsuru got up and left the meeting room.
After Tsuru left, Zephyr leaned back in the chair. "I can't see Tsuru's thoughts more and more!"
"Haha, if you can see it, the Navy Chief of Staff wouldn't be Tsuru but you!
Garp laughed.
