Pirate: I have a Hollow living inside me!

“Daz Bones, the ‘assassin’? I remember him. He’s a notorious assassin from the West Blue. I never imagined he was one of Crocodile’s men…”

"A blade-wielding person who ate the Slash-Slash Fruit, perhaps? Ordinary swordsmen wouldn't stand a chance against him..."

"The Iron-Cutting Swordsman, so that's how it is!"

Many of the sailors present also remembered the man known as "Killer" Daz Bones.

He was once a notorious assassin in the Western Sea.

I never expected that the other party would be Crocodile's subordinate?

And was defeated by Kuina, the "Iron-Cutting Swordswoman"...

"Quiet!"

Brannew gestured for silence.

Then, she exhaled and said, "Being able to defeat 'Assassin' Daz Bones is enough to demonstrate the strength of 'Iron-Cutting Swordsman' Kuina."

"We were completely unaware of this incident before..."

"This is our navy's fault, but it's not too late now."

"Kuina, the 'Iron-Cutting Swordswoman,' may not have the same talent and potential as the Black-Haired Swordsman, but she has still demonstrated considerable strength."

"Even intelligence suggests that 'Iron-Cutting Swordswoman' Kuina... is very likely the vice-captain of the Blackwing Daima Pirates, and possibly the first partner of the Black-Haired Swordsman!"

"The fact that the black-haired swordsman entrusted such an important task to the other party suggests that the strength he has shown may be more than that, which is why a high bounty of 100 million Berries was set for him."

"We need to take any threat seriously!"

The other party might be the vice-captain of the Blackwing Demon Pirates.

It was the first mate of "Black-haired Swordsman" Rocks.

This identity alone is enough to say a lot...

If this information is true, then 100 million Berries wouldn't even be enough to demonstrate the threat posed by the other party.

However, they still know too little about Kuina, the "Iron-Cutting Swordswoman," so they can only set this standard for now...

"continue!"

Brannew did not stop.

He pulled out another bounty poster and slapped it on the panel behind him, saying in a low voice, "The third member of the Blackwing Demon Pirates..."

"Nico Robin, the 'Devil Child' who was a survivor of Ohara and had a bounty of 79 million Berries on her head at the tender age of eight!"

Robin on the wanted poster looks relaxed and has a smile on her face, as if she is talking to someone.

The silhouette of another person appeared nearby, their black hair so striking…

"You're all probably familiar with Nico Robin, the 'Devil's Child,' aren't you?"

“I’ll tell you something you don’t know.”

"After the Ohara incident, the other party hid in the shadows for many years and, like the 'assassin' Daz Bonis, was once a member of Baroque Works."

"They're Crocodile's subordinates!"

"After Crocodile was killed, he chose to join the Blackwing Daima Pirates!"

"The 'Devil Child' Nico Robin is a high-value wanted criminal, a user of the Flower Flower Fruit, and is wanted by the World Government and the Navy."

"At only eight years old, he can destroy six naval warships..."

At this point, Brannew's voice changed slightly.

Destroyed six warships at the age of eight...

Is this even human?

He suppressed his surprise and continued, "His current strength is unknown, but to be recruited as a partner by the black-haired swordsman, he is clearly not simple."

"Perhaps her strength is even above that of 'Iron-Cutting Swordswoman' Kuina!"

"Therefore, after discussion by the General Staff, the bounty on the other side was set at 110 million Berries!"

One hundred and ten million Berries!

Although it also has a bounty of over 100 million, even higher than that of "Iron-Cutting Swordswoman" Kuina.

However, none of the people in the room showed any surprise.

One was offered a bounty of 100 million Berries on his first try, while the other's bounty increased from 79 million Berries to 110 million Berries.

The two are not comparable.

The "monster" who could destroy six warships at the age of eight has now been around for more than a decade.

Who knows how ridiculously Nico Robin's power has increased?

The 110 million Berry figure was chosen because of a lack of intelligence about the enemy, which made the decision rather conservative...

However, many people were surprised that the Blackwing Daimo Pirates now have two pirates with bounties exceeding 100 million.

Keep in mind that a rookie pirate with a bounty of over 100 million is considered a supernova in the first half of the series!

"Now comes the important part..."

Brannew took out the bounty posters again and slammed them onto the panel: "Although we know little about these people in the Navy, there are still clues to follow."

"At least we know their name, position, and which sea area they come from..."

"And these two... no matter how the intelligence agencies investigate, they have no way of knowing any information or intelligence about them."

"They appeared out of nowhere, suddenly becoming members of the Blackwing Demon Pirates..."

Two wanted posters.

One photo shows Yi Xiao, and the other shows Xiao Yi.

With a smile, eyes tightly closed, and a calm and composed expression, he held a staff-knife as if about to unleash an attack...

Little Yi tilted her head, looking curious and innocent...

"Since their names and origins are unknown, they will be referred to by their titles from now on..."

Brannew pointed at Little Yi, his brows furrowed: "'Innocent girl,' her position and status in the Blackwing Demon Pirates are currently unknown, but such a young girl is clearly not an important figure."

"The other party might just be a family member of a member, so we'll leave them out of the discussion for now. The bounty is 10,000 Berries..."

Yeah, 10,000 Berries.

This was the first time the Blackwing Daimo Pirates, led by the "Black-haired Swordsman" Rocks, became known to the world.

The navy naturally attaches great importance to this.

All members of the Blackwing Demon Pirates need to be wanted and made known to the sea.

No one can be overlooked.

Also, since the Blackwing Demon Pirates only consist of a handful of people, it wouldn't take much effort to put a bounty on them all...

The reason the Navy failed to find any information about Illumi is because Illumi's hometown is in the Grand Line, a very remote location.

The Navy's intelligence agencies found no relevant information...

Actually, it's more a matter of not looking carefully enough.

After all, the navy didn't think such a young and innocent girl needed too much attention.

She's not some "monster" like Nico Robin, the "Devil's Child"...

"This person... is one of the key targets that the Navy needs to pay close attention to!"

Brannew looked at the bounty poster with a smile.

He spoke in a more solemn and wary tone than before: "His title is 'The Blind Swordsman.' He is very mysterious, and we can't find much information about him at the moment."

"However, the opponent once exchanged blows with Admiral Aokiji on Asuka Island and was not at a disadvantage!"

"Although it was only one move, it already demonstrated a formidable strength that exceeded all reason!"

"According to the intelligence revealed by Admiral Aokiji, this person probably has combat strength at the level of a Marine Headquarters Admiral!"

A combat force at the level of a naval admiral!

Upon hearing this, all the generals present widened their eyes, revealing expressions of horror and disbelief!

"This is impossible. How could an unknown blind man possess such power? Could Admiral Aokiji have made a mistake?"

"Possessing the strength of a Marine Admiral? Doesn't that mean he's even stronger than the black-haired swordsman!?"

"Hey, are you kidding me?"

"How could such a strong person possibly submit to someone else?"

In their shock, many people spoke out directly.

His voice was filled with shock and disbelief.

How could someone with the strength of a Marine Admiral be a member of the Blackwing Daima Pirates?

That's not how you joke!

Even their captain, "Black-haired Swordsman" Rocks, doesn't have that kind of strength, right?

"Although it is unbelievable, this news is true. It is impossible for Admiral Aokiji to misjudge such a matter."

Bran clenched his fists.

The voice, however, was extremely solemn: "A person with the combat power of a Marine Admiral has joined the Blackwing Demon Pirates and follows the lead of 'Black-Haired Swordsman' Rocks."

"This is something that cannot be ignored."

"The reason why they joined the Blackwing Demon Pirates is currently unknown..."

"Perhaps they saw the black-haired swordsman's talent and potential and decided to protect him, wanting to become his guide and witness him rise to the top!"

"This kind of thing has happened before. Among the sea emperors who occupy a region in the New World, even 'Big Mom' Charlotte Linlin has a guide behind her..."

"Regardless of their purpose, the information that they are members of the Blackwing Demon Pirates is true!"

"The fact that such a powerful person is willing to protect the Black-Haired Swordsman once again demonstrates how terrifying the Black-Haired Swordsman is..."

"Based on the 'Blind Swordsman's' strength, the opponent poses a significant threat to our navy. Therefore, after discussion at the high-level meeting..."
