"New World" Frontline.
Marine G-5 base.
A group of ferocious-looking Marines gathered around, discussing openly without any reservations.
"Ho~~? Has the headquarters sent a new base commander here? What kind of guy is he?"
Most people did not wear Marine's white uniforms, but displayed the words "5" or "G-5" somewhere on their body or clothing.
"Whatever, if it's a soft guy, we don't have to pay attention to him. After all, this is the New World! Soft guys should go to the Four Seas!"
"What if it's a very powerful guy?" A voice, completely different from their wild tone, sounded nearby.
The person who just spoke subconsciously replied: "If it's strong enough..."
"Enemy attack!"
A few more sensitive Marines reacted quickly, using their weapons to support their bodies as they stood up.
At the gate of the base, a tall figure appeared in their sight.
"Hey, you guy, this is the Marine G-5 base, what are you doing!?"
The figure was completely unmoved.
"Sengoku and Garp said that G-5 has a special location, so the style of this base is very similar to mine, but..."
Countless black thunder surged out of Dylan's body, and the powerful energy shook the Marines in the base.
"I don't really agree with your strength. You trash, now get out of here and line up on the playground. Anyone who doesn't arrive within 1 minute can get out."
"You...are you the newly appointed base commander, Rear Admiral Dylan, who was appointed by the Fleet Admiral in an unusual way?"
Dylan stood at the gate of the base, raised his eyelids, and looked at the person who asked the question: "What's the problem? You still have 50 seconds."
After the others looked at each other for a moment, they rushed out in a swarm.
"Time's up!"
On the playground, the G-5 Marines had already lined up, but the formation was really unbearable to look at. There was also a buzzing sound of discussion in the crooked team.
Dylan walked from the gate towards the playground, and the G-5 Marines fell silent instantly.
In the New World, their vision and knowledge are far beyond the comparison of the Marines from the Four Seas or the Paradise.
This man, the newly appointed base commander, actually possesses Conqueror's Haki!
This is the qualification of a king!
But...what kind of king does this man want to become?
Marine King?
Dylan walked down the steps slowly, looking at the Marines who looked more like pirates with a blank expression.
"I didn't care what you did before, but from today on, my rules are the rules."
"Those who have objections should either hold it in or get out. I'm done. Do you have any objections?"
A powerful aura spread out, and the Marines in the field straightened their bodies subconsciously.
"Gu~"
Many Marines swallowed, but no one questioned it.
The G-5 Marine branch, both in appearance and style, is very similar to pirates. Although they believe in justice, they disdain the style of this branch and other branches. Their methods are particularly cruel to pirates. They also believe in the strong more.
Dylan's Conqueror's Haki and his attitude commanded their respect and compliance. From this moment, they knew things were going to change under his command.
"Since there are no objections, the first task is to get the construction and sanitation done for me." Dylan threw down a drawing.
"You have two months to complete your mission."
After speaking, Dylan's body flashed and disappeared.
Everyone in G-5 was silent for a moment as they watched Dylan disappear, and then burst into cheers.
"OHHH!!! A powerful guy is here, and now our life will get better!!"
In the sky, Dylan was stunned for a moment when he heard their voices, then turned into a stream of light and flew away into the distance.
-------
Marineford flanks, Impel Down.
"Dylan, who is very popular recently, has been made a Rear Admiral?" Magellan looked at Dylan in the living room. "What's the point of coming to Impel Down?"
"Come to ask for someone." Dylan did not sit down but stood in the middle of the living room.
Seeing Dylan's attitude, Magellan didn't ask any questions. The Marines often formulated some targeted combat plans, which required using prisoners as bait or deciding to execute the prisoners.
"So... what about the procedures, Rear Admiral Dylan? Most of the prisoners in Impel Down are ability users. Although you are a newly promoted Rear Admiral, I believe you also know the rules."
Dylan stretched out his finger and shook it: "I'm not here to ask for a prisoner. Prisoners are of no use to me. I'm here to ask for someone else."
"Someone else..." Magellan looked directly at Dylan, thinking of the rumors about Dylan, and seemed to understand something. "I see, is Shiryu going to be transferred? However, this also requires procedures."
"After I meet him, if it satisfies me, the transfer order will be conveyed by Sengoku."
Magellan's ferocious face showed solemnity: "In that case..."
Magellan pressed the intercom in the room: "Inform Shiryu to come to the top floor."
After turning off the intercom, Magellan's huge body looked at Dylan. After pondering for a while, Magellan spoke: "Shiryu is too bloodthirsty, and once he starts killing, he will be indistinguishable between friend and foe. I hope you can control him better instead of being influenced by him."
Dylan chuckled and responded: "So your tolerance for him is almost reaching its limit? If I don't come, you should be ready to attack him, right?"
Indeed, later, Shiryu was defeated by Magellan, taken into custody, and sentenced to death.
Neither of them spoke anymore while waiting. Magellan looked serious. Dylan was recalling the information about Shiryu in his mind.
No one uses it!
The really powerful guys in the Marines are basically Admirals or senior advisors, the so-called Vice Admirals of the headquarters...
Tsk! The name sounds good, but the actual combat effectiveness is extremely unstable, and they are basically under the command of Kizaru or Akainu.
Kuzan is a laid-back guy, and the only person he can command is Smoker, a big loser and a rookie.
If you want to end the era of great pirates, you must gather all the power you can use.
"Magellan, are you looking for me?" Shiryu, three meters tall, appeared in the living room on the top floor with a cigar in his mouth.
"I'm not looking for you, it's this man, the G-5 branch base commander, the new Marine Rear Admiral Dylan." Magellan looked at Dylan, then at Shiryu, and then fell silent.
He also didn't quite agree with the rumors about Dylan.
"Oh? The rumored new Rear Admiral who is as powerful as an Admiral?" Shiryu exhaled a puff of smoke and looked at Dylan. "What do you want from me?"
Dylan slowly pulled out Shura, causing Magellan's pupils to shrink and a smile to appear on Shiryu's face at the door.
"We'll talk about other things after I verify your strength."
The moment Shura's black-red blade was exposed to the air, the huge living room seemed to be drained of oxygen.
Shiryu raised his eyebrows, sensing the aura. This presence... Not just a beast, but an evil ghost!
"Interesting..."
"If you are killed, it will be treated as Magellan judging you in advance," Dylan flicked the blade.
Shiryu did not give in at all and said excitedly, "If I kill you, I will have no choice but to defect, but... this is really exciting!"
Ding!
Two black figures flashed in the living room, with Raiu and Shura clashing against each other.
"What terrifying power, and the intensity of this Haki!" Shiryu turned the cigar in his mouth, his eyes glowing red.
"If it's only to this extent, Shiryu, I'm not satisfied!" Dylan's arms trembled, and black Conqueror's Haki wrapped around Shura's handle.
"Of course not, I haven't been this excited in a long time!"
Shiryu's arm also tightened, and the dark red aura climbed up his arm towards Raiu blade.
"That's it! Shiryu!"
The black Conqueror's Haki erupted instantly, and the blades that were originally together gradually separated.
In Shiryu's surprised eyes, Raiu trembled and finally couldn't hold on anymore, bouncing back.
Shiryu's body flew backwards with the force transmitted from the blade.
Shiryu stabilized himself after falling back several meters.
"What kind of power is this... Can Conqueror's Haki really be infused?" Shiryu's eyes flashed red. "This world is truly wonderful!"
"Come with me, Shiryu, to the New World. There are plenty of people to kill for you."
Shura returned to its sheath, and the red light in Shiryu's eyes gradually dissipated. "As you wish, sir."
