======================
A few days later, as all the forces in the sea were waiting eagerly, the imagined massive revenge of the World Government did not happen!
The World Government acted as if nothing had happened, and there was no movement at all.
Even the lost Marine bases on the New World were not recaptured!
How does this look like the World Government that has always been domineering and authoritarian!
"Have the Marine and World Government given in?"
"No way! Fleet Admiral was killed, and the Marine bases were destroyed; how could they have endured it?"
"Is the World Government also afraid of Kaishu the Beasts?"
"Haha... I knew that Kaishu-sama is the strongest!"
"It seems that the World Governments are nothing more than this..."
"Marine is still recruiting? I don't want to be a Marine anymore."
"That's right! I'm going to New World to follow Kaishu-sama!"
"Ha ha ha ha…"
The pirates began to become more arrogant because of the attitude of the World Government. From time to time, the Marine Fleet and Marine base would be attacked!
However, the Marines soon made these naive guys pay the price and all pirate groups who provoked and caused trouble were annihilated without exception!
Marine uses its strength to tell the world that even if the New World is lost, the Marine is still the overlord of the sea!
With Marine's suppression, the riots in the world gradually calmed down. Although many people were still going to sea, they no longer dared to provoke the Marines!
The situation is a little worse. However, since they no longer have to guard the New World.
Admiral and Vice-Admiral are active in Paradise more frequently. I believe it will not take long to stabilize the situation.
Sengoku was also promoted to Fleet Admiral!
It's just that this time, he has the smallest momentum since someone took over the position of Fleet Admiral.
The newspaper coverage was less than half that of Kaishu, almost as much as Whitebeard's bloodbath and Marine Recruitment.
At the Grand Line.
"Get out of the way!!"
A tall man with bulging muscles, wearing a standard captain's uniform, with a long sword and a pistol on his waist, shouted loudly.
Opposite him was a young man with a resolute face, wearing a hat and carrying a big knife while looking at the strong man with cold eyes.
"I heard that you went to sea to become a pirate?"
The young man looked at the strong man solemnly while exuding a fierce aura.
"That's right!!"
The strong man named Ragnar jumped out of the ship and said with a proud smile: "Now even the Fleet Admiral has been killed by Kaishu-sama."
"Marine is clearly on its last legs. It's time for me to realize my ambitions."
"Look, just a few days after I went to sea, I already had more than a dozen men, robbed two merchant ships, and gained millions of belly."
Having said this, Ragnar's eyes became more greedy; then he looked at the young man and said loudly:
"Sakazuki, for the sake of drinking with me before, how about it? Do you want to board my ship?"
"Become my right-hand man and go to the New World to take refuge with Kaishu-sama."
"That way, we will have inexhaustible treasure!!"
The more Ragnar talked, the crazier he became, especially when he mentioned Kaishu; his eyes were filled with admiration.
He didn't even notice that Sakazuki's expression on the opposite became gloomy.
"Ragnar, you used to be a pirate hunter; why do you want to become an evil pirate now?"
Sakazuki raised his head and asked coldly.
His tone was full of anger and questioning.
When they first meet, Ragnar is destroying a pirate group.
He thought they were like-minded friends.
Unexpectedly, two days ago, he overheard that Ragnar had become a pirate who did all kinds of evil.
Unwilling to believe it, Sakazuki immediately came over and blocked his way here.
"Hahaha, needless to say, how can a pirate hunter make money like a pirate!"
"What I want is treasure and to become the richest man."
"As long as I have treasure, I will have whatever I want!!"
"This is what I have always dreamed of."
Ragnar looked excited and said with a smile.
Sakazuki looked at Ragnar, who looked crazy with eyes full of greed, before closing his eyes.
When he opened it again, his face was already indifferent.
Sakazuki's eyes became cold, and he slowly pulled out his sword from his back.
"Oh? Are you going to take my head to collect my bounty?"
"What a pity. I thought you would join me, but you turned out to be a stupid guy."
Seeing Sakazuki draw his sword, Ragnar smiled coldly, and his body changed rapidly.
"Although I wasn't your opponent before, you didn't expect it, Sakazuki..."
"I'm now a Devil Fruit user!"
Ragnar's body swelled out while his fingers turned into sharp claws, and fangs protruded from his mouth.
"Cat-Cat Fruit, Model: Leopard!"
"You are definitely no match for me now."
"You have no idea how powerful Zoan users are. My physical skills are much stronger than before..."
"Puch—"
Ragnar transformed into a Human-Beast form; his momentum was high, and he proudly showed off to Sakazuki.
But before he finished speaking, Sakazuki disappeared in front of him.
The dazzling light flashed, and Sakazuki appeared behind him.
Suddenly, Ragnar felt like the world was spinning, and he saw his body that had not fallen yet.
As Ragnar's head, full of confusion and unwillingness, fell, blood shot out from his neck.
"Qiang~"
There was no trace of blood on Sakazuki's sword, and he sheathed it indifferently.
"I have killed at least ten people with abilities like you."
Without looking at the headless body that fell behind him, Sakazuki walked toward the pirate ship with murderous intent.
There are more than a dozen pirates up there.
Although none of them have a bounty on their head, as long as they become pirates, they all deserve to die!!
I do not know how long it has been...
Sakazuki leaned quietly on the railing while carefully wiping the sword in his hand.
His handkerchief turns bright red, and the deck is covered with corpses and blood.
The strong smell of blood permeated the surroundings.
"Kaishu! It's all because of you that there are so many bastards in the sea."
"Justice will not be defeated!!"
"I, Sakazuki, will punish the evil in the sea with absolute justice!!"
Sakazuki looked at the sea with firm eyes.
Then, he sheaths his sword back and heads towards the Marine Recruitment Office…
The gears of fate are turning again. What waves will appear in the pattern of the sea?
