The most courageous pirate hunter

"I can only give you 5 billion and 5 Devil Fruits. As for killing Sengoku, that's something Jormungandr didn't give you the chance to do."

Whitebeard, on the other hand, remained calm.

Although his complexion wasn't good either, that's to be expected.

"you sure?"

Hody Jones's smile vanished, and his expression gradually became strange, but he showed no anger. Instead, he looked at Whitebeard and his group as if they were dead.

These guys must be out of their minds!

Want to sabotage the Imperial Organization? Don't you even look at what happened to Sengoku and the Navy? Although the Marineford War happened a long time ago, it hasn't been forgotten yet.

"Yes."

"You guys have guts, good luck!"

Hody Jones was too lazy to bother with these people. They were all going to die anyway, and the entire Whitebeard Pirates' legacy would belong to the Monarchy. He could just consider the 10 billion Berries and the ten Devil Fruits as an investment.

The returns will definitely be tenfold or a hundredfold.

It seems that many of the division commanders of the Whitebeard Pirates have very good Devil Fruits. Now that the BOSS has chosen the Teleport Fruit, the Tremor-Tremor Fruit naturally becomes the choice for others.

According to the boss, the Tremor-Tremor Fruit is the most suitable for Burgess.

With the added power of the Power-Power Fruit, a single punch from him could cause mountains to crumble and the earth to split. If he were to add the Tremor-Tremor Fruit to the mix, he would surely smash a hole in the sky.

Hody Jones was more than happy for the Whitebeard Pirates to break their promise, so that Monarch would have an excuse to take action.

Without giving Whitebeard a chance to speak, Hody Jones suddenly jumped into the sea and disappeared without even making a splash, leaving Whitebeard and the others completely bewildered.

Why did you leave halfway through the deal and not even want your previous payment?

It was as if they were just waiting for them to refuse.

Oh shit.

An ominous premonition arose.

"Just leave like that?"

Jabba was a little confused. Although he often saw news about the Hunter King, he had never actually fought him. The person who had the most contact with the Hunter King at the scene was probably Rayleigh.

"Trouble!"

Rayleigh sighed.

Given Jormungandr's vengeful nature, he will surely retaliate against them.

As everyone knows, no force that has been targeted by the Monarchy organization has fared well; the Navy is a prime example.

"Be prepared for retaliation from the Monarchy."

"The days ahead may be a bit troublesome."

Everyone present knew what they would face next, but Ace's return made everyone feel relieved. Although they didn't know what had gotten into the Hunter King, as long as Ace was back, everything would be fine.

However, the unease in everyone's hearts grew stronger and stronger as time went on.

soon.

Three months have passed in the blink of an eye.

A lot has happened in the ocean over the past three months.

Not to mention some of the new generation, such as Pet King and Despicable Man, they have made a name for themselves in the New World and are unparalleled in their time.

Whether it's the Seven Warlords of the Sea, the Four Emperors, or the Navy, they are all targets for their attack.

Then there's the previous generation of supernovae.

Aside from Hawkins, Capone Bege, and others who joined the Beasts Pirates and Big Mom Pirates, characters like the Gluttonous Girl who was targeted by the Navy, each has their own unique experiences and stories.

In addition, there are legends like the Golden Lion, Lone Red, Heir of the Devil, and World Destroyer, who occasionally reveal their whereabouts, keeping various forces closely watching them.

In addition, there's the Straw Hat Pirates.

Because Luffy woke up too late, he had to intensify his training to catch up with those of his contemporaries, and he also had to work hard to overcome his hatred for the Hunter King. Luffy trained day and night.

Ace, who had returned three months prior, was also making rapid progress in strength under the tutelage of Rayleigh, Jabba, and other remnants of the Roger Pirates. However, life wasn't easy for the Whitebeard Pirates.

Because they fought against the Beasts Pirates and the Big Mom Pirates, aiming to reclaim the invaded territory, their lives were quite eventful.

Meanwhile, the navy was not idle either. Under Sakazuki's rule, the navy was like madmen, arresting criminals on the sea, and the new Impel Down was once again full.

Meanwhile, the four admirals, Onigumo, and others no longer had their usual leisurely time, and were frequently sent out to carry out missions or harass the Four Emperors.

The Seven Warlords of the Sea are also forcibly summoned from time to time, which infuriates Doflamingo, Hancock, and others, but there is nothing they can do about it, because there are rumors within the Navy that Admiral Fujitora wants to abolish the Seven Warlords system.

I lost it.

This is a bit uncomfortable.

The Emperor Organization, which has always been stirring up trouble, has kept a very low profile in the past three months. Apart from some members occasionally appearing on the sea, the Hunter King has not appeared for a long time.

It's just bizarre.

Little did they know that the world would be thrown into turmoil again because of the Hunter King.

Chapter 356 [Want a cheap Devil Fruit? Then go buy one!]

Island of Gods.

The second batch of artificial Devil Fruits was ready for harvest. Hermes looked at the vast expanse of Devil Fruits covered with bizarre patterns, a maternal smile on his face.

Many dwarfs and clones are harvesting.

Many baskets are already overflowing. This cemetery alone contains at least tens of thousands of artificial Devil Fruits, not to mention that this is only the second round; the first round of artificial Devil Fruits has long been stored in warehouses.

Most of them are common animal species, which are divided into herbivores and carnivores, plus ancient species that are relatively rare nowadays. Overall, it was a very fruitful harvest.

"It's unimaginable."

Yesterday, Tesoro rushed back from the City of Gold and heard from Hermes that they were going to do business.

He didn't know what kind of business it was at first, but now he does.

Looking at the baskets and baskets of artificial Devil Fruits in front of me, and the warehouse full of them, it's hard to imagine what kind of turmoil the world would be thrown into if this were made public.

What the hell.

If even Devil Fruits can be mass-produced, what else can't this man do?

"Hahaha~"

"Boss, how do you plan to price it?"

"I heard that the lowest price for a real Devil Fruit is 100 million, and even then, there's no market for them. We can't possibly sell them for 100 million!"

Burgess, Lucci, Guyram, and the others all looked at Hermes.

Hody Jones is back too.

Hermes wasn't worried about the Whitebeard Pirates not being able to pay their dues. He had plenty of time to make up for it later, and so far no one had dared to cheat the Monarch Organization.

Moreover, Burgess and Hadori are quite enthusiastic about the Tremor-Tremor Fruit and the Flame-Flame Fruit.

"One hundred million is too expensive; ordinary people simply can't afford it."

"As someone who's been there, I can relate to this deeply."

Hermes not only recalled the time when he first traveled through time, a period filled with bitterness and tears, but also the impoverished days of his previous life, not to mention that he was born a farmer.

"Notify Ferrari."

Hermes planned to run a campaign before selling the product, hoping to please the poorest people in the world.

Just like when it ushered in the era of great rise.

soon.

A single news report spread across the ocean, causing a global commotion and terrifying various factions, as the Hunter King was about to start a live broadcast again.

Many people felt it was the calm before the storm.

The King of Hunters is really good at causing trouble.

"Did you hear that?"

"The Hunter King will start a live stream in three days."

"I saw the news too. The last time the Hunter King started a live stream was because of the Great Rise of the Era. I wonder what will happen this time. I have a bad feeling."

"Fufufu~"

"What is that beast Jormungandr up to now?"

The Revolutionary Army, the Navy, the Four Emperors, Mary Geoise, the Underworld, various kingdoms, and certain important figures were all deep in thought as they looked at the news; not a single person remained calm.

Especially the Five Elders.

I don't know why I feel so uneasy; it's like a sudden urge.

that's it.
