Jujutsu Kaisen: Throne

"You just need to follow the orders issued by the government and act obediently."

Upon hearing this, the temperature inside the conference room soared rapidly.

A surge of heat coursing through his fist as Akainu forced a snarl, "Insolent scoundrel... who do you think you're talking to?!"

Despite the angry stares of the navy, Lucci, with his hands in his pockets, showed no fear.

With his Devil Fruit powers awakened, Lucci has been promoted to captain of CP0.

Putting aside their strength, Lucci's official position is at least on par with Akainu's.

As Lu Qi was about to speak again, a slender, white arm reached out from beside him.

Short, curly blonde hair and blue eyes.

The agent, dressed in a white blouse, short skirt, red tie, fishnet stockings, and high heels, spoke up: "Lu Qi."

"It's the Marine Headquarters, after all. They should at least give Fleet Admiral Akainu some face."

Lieutenant General He, Damufu served in the Warring States Period.

The two men looked at the beautiful female agent who had spoken, their brows furrowing slightly.

One of the kings of the underworld.

Stussy, known as the Queen of Pleasure Street, is actually a spy sent by the World Government.

Stopping his superior who lacked social skills, Stussy smiled and explained to Akainu, "Three days ago, the Imperial forces appeared in the skies above Mary Geoise piloting the ancient weapon Hades."

"Although the Empire's forces were eventually driven out by the Five Elders, some minor casualties were inevitable in the process."

"Your generals also sacrificed their lives at that time."

That was well said.

But the truth about those naval soldiers' sacrifices has nothing to do with the future.

The entire navy was executed simply for witnessing Im's attack.

Lucci, who also knew the truth, remained indifferent.

He didn't think there was anything worth mentioning about the deaths of these naval personnel.

He observed the expressions of the two agents.

Lieutenant General Tsuru, arms crossed, looked at Stusi, whose face was full of sincerity: "As expected of the queen who has been in the underworld for many years, this old woman can't see any trace of your lying."

"It's as perfect as a robot."

"but......"

"The old woman has served as a staff officer for so many years, so she still has some special intelligence channels."

Lieutenant General Tsuru abruptly changed the subject, dropping another bombshell in the conference room: "News has come from the Empire..."

"Nassius, one of the Five Elders, has already died at the hands of that emperor."

Is that really true?

! ! ! !

All the generals were shocked, and even Fleet Admiral Akainu at the head of the table lost his composure for a moment!

Lava dripping from a fist burned a large hole through the conference table!

Lucci and Stussy frowned, speechless.

The World Government will naturally suppress the news of the Five Elders' deaths.

But if the intelligence came from the other side, there was nothing they could do.

Denial is equally useless.

After all, there was a camera crew led by Bonnie on that ship at the time.

The silence between the two was deafening.

Silence is the answer.

Lucci skipped the topic and tossed a stack of documents to Akainu from his arms.

"Immediately dispatch Admirals Fujitora and Green Bull to the Holy Land to protect the Celestial Dragons' safety."

"in addition......"

Lu Qi paused for a moment, then spoke slowly and deliberately.

"Wanted: The Future of the Zen Monastery!"

Chapter 244 The highest bounty in history, the Straw Hat crew lands!

A bounty offered for the future of the Zen temple?!

Akainu's expression was obscured by the thick smoke, and the temperature inside the conference room grew increasingly intense.

Despite knowing that a war between the World Government and the future Empire was inevitable.

But I never expected it to happen so suddenly.

The room fell into a deathly silence, the group of navy men frowning and remaining silent.

Even the news of the Five Elders' deaths, which they had only learned a second ago, no longer seemed so important.

Former Fleet Admiral, known as the "wise general," was a brainstorming session during the Warring States period.

Once the bounty is issued at sea, the Navy and the World Government will have no way out.

With only the combat power of the Navy Headquarters, it would be like throwing an egg against a rock to fight that monster.

And what led the Five Elders to make this decision...?

It must have been something that happened three days ago; it wasn't as simple as Lucci made it out to be.

If one of the Five Elders dies at headquarters, it must be because the Zen Temple will personally intervene.

Otherwise, even with the addition of the ancient weapon Hades, a White Zetsu, it would have been impossible for a Grand President to leave the Holy Land unscathed.

Having only met once during the Marineford War, Sengoku was able to unilaterally confirm this.

The monster from the Zen Temple in the future would never target those hundred marines on guard duty.

Unless, of course, the Holy Land is destroyed along with it.

Therefore, it is highly likely that those marines were silenced by the Celestial Dragons.

What exactly is the World Government hiding?!

Sengoku, realizing this, glanced subtly at the two generals, Fujitora and Green Bull.

While ordering the navy to engage the empire in a direct confrontation, he also withdrew two of his admirals' combat strength...

Sengoku did not voice his doubts to Lu Qi; he planned to talk to Ikko first after the meeting.

......

Upon receiving the Imperial bounty order from Akainu, the Marines gasped in shock once again.

Apart from the youngest, Bonnie, who is only twelve years old, has a bounty of less than one billion.

The remaining imperial officials with known names all have extremely high bounties exceeding one billion.

First up is a big bear dressed as a priest, with little Bonnie sitting on its shoulder.

The Paw-Paw Fruit user, the tyrant Bartholomew Kuma.

Formerly one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, now one of the Imperial Executives.

Big Bear's bounty: 1.736 billion Berries!

The user of the Float-Float Fruit, the Sky Witch Uru.

He possesses limited combat intelligence but is one of the Empire's key officials.

Black Heron's bounty: 2,447.6 million Berries!

Douglas Barrett, a user of the Fusion-Fusion Fruit and the heir to a demon.

A former combatant on the ship of Pirate King Roger, and the most notorious escaped convict in history.

Barrett's bounty: 3.37 billion Berries!

Kuzan, a Logia-type Ice-Ice Fruit user.

Former Admiral of the Navy Headquarters, and one of the Imperial officers.

Aokiji's bounty: 3.657 billion Berries!

Borsalino, a Logia-type Devil Fruit user with the Glint-Glint Fruit ability.

Former Admiral of the Navy Headquarters, and one of the Imperial officers.

Kizaru's bounty: 3.876 billion Berries!

The bounties on these few officers alone are already close to the 4 billion bounty on Shanks, one of the Four Emperors!

Among them are Doflamingo and Tesoro.

Both Devil Fruit Awakeners have bounties exceeding one billion.

The navy men carried a thick stack of documents, as heavy as a mountain.

Turn to the last page...

It was a screenshot taken from a live broadcast by the famous journalist Morgans at the martial arts tournament six months ago.

A supreme being seated on a pitch-black throne, with eyes that seem to circulate in the cycle of reincarnation.

The ruler of imperial power, the emperor of the new world.

The Zen Temple's future bounty: 200 billion Berries!

The highest bounty in history, far exceeding the 5.5648 billion Berries of Pirate King Roger.

"That's not all!"

Lu Qi stepped forward and added in a deep voice, "The Five Elders have promised that if anyone launches an attack on the future of the Zen Temple!"
