Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

"Pursue? How can we catch up? We can't catch them at all! Let's go, let's go to the West Sea!" Garp said with a smile.

An ordinary naval commander would not dare to do this. Even if he knew he couldn't catch up, he would still give it a shot to make it look like he was doing it. But Garp never does that. If he can't catch up, he can't catch up. There's absolutely no need to waste time.

Moreover, he came here specifically to ask Reina what was going on; he didn't believe Reina was a cruel guy.

Unfortunately, the other person ran faster than a rabbit the moment they saw him, giving him no chance to speak.

However, he seemed to have forgotten who it was that attacked the moment they met.

Seeing that the navy behind him had not caught up, Reina secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that they did not really intend to capture him, otherwise, even with Liu Liu's help, he would not have been able to escape so easily.

Little did Reina know that although Garp's trip to the West Sea did not result in his capture, he still accomplished something significant that shocked the world.

Chapter 117 The World Government Takes Action

"So you mean you took down a rear admiral from a division of the Navy this time?" Reina told Whitebeard what had happened in the West Blue after returning to the ship.

“That’s right! And we even left our flag in Ohara!” Reina nodded, somewhat embarrassed.

After all, he represents the entire Whitebeard Pirates, not just himself.

"Gurarararar... What's done is done, what's a mere district division major general!" the white-bearded man said with a loud laugh.

That's just how he is; his family is the most important thing, and everything else is secondary.

In the past, Reina was conscientious and rarely did anything so outrageous, which made people feel at ease, but also created a sense of distance between him and others. Because he was always the one helping others, but never the one being helped, people subconsciously didn't want to bother him anymore.

Those who help each other are family and partners.

"Hahaha... Well done! A mere naval branch dared to attack Ohara? We razed them to the ground!"

"That's right. It's rare for the first mate to need our help. This time, no problem. First mate, when do we depart?"

On the way back, Reina was a little worried. After all, he had used the pirate crew's name to do his own private business. He didn't expect that his crew members would be even more excited than him after they found out. They couldn't wait to rush to the West Blue.

“In the past, it was always my third brother who settled things for me, but it is my second brother’s duty to do so!” Oden had somehow picked up some words that sounded very much like those of a gangster.

"Everyone... the Navy hasn't taken any action against Ohara yet, so we don't need to be so aggressive. In short, we need to wait and see how the Navy acts!" Reina said, somewhat moved and somewhat helpless.

"You said you ran into that bastard Garp when you came back? Then it's all over. That guy probably just went through the motions and won't cause any trouble!" Whitebeard knew that Reina had run into Garp when he returned, so he knew that the matter was over.

Just as Reina had predicted, they would just go and check occasionally to see if any pirates from the West Blue had offended their pirate flags. As for the Navy, there was no need to worry.

Just as Whitebeard had guessed, when Garp learned that it was Rear Admiral Make who ordered the shelling of civilians, it aroused Reyner's murderous intent. He then stopped caring about Ohara and began to wander around the West Blue.

"Oh? A bounty of over 500 million? I didn't expect there to be such a figure in the West Blue. Let's go... let's go meet them! It'll be a good opportunity for these greenhorns to see what's going on!" Garp's wandering around caused quite a stir in the entire pirate world of the West Blue, especially after hearing that there was a great pirate in the West Blue with a bounty of over 500 million. He was overjoyed.

As the chief instructor of the Navy's new recruit camp, Zephyr has already provided the Navy with two classes of outstanding naval officers. The first class, including Sakazuki and Borsalino, are exceptionally strong and are currently fighting alongside Sengoku against Shiki the Golden Lion.

As a senior vice admiral in the Navy, Garp naturally received some excellent new recruits, many of whom would later become pillars of the Navy, and were on Garp's ship at this time.

"My lord, we can't just let this go! Although Chinjao is a pirate in secret, he is officially a pillar of the Happo Navy of the Flower Country!" the adjutant Pocato said helplessly.

"This is troublesome. Let's find out his location first, and then we'll talk after we catch him!" Garp waved his hand impatiently and said.

"Mr. Garp is just as rumored!" Dalmesia, who was wearing a dog-head hat like Garp, said with a hint of admiration.

“But since the other party has official status, we can’t just arrest them arbitrarily, right? Otherwise, the King of the Flower Kingdom will definitely protest to the World Government!” The mole, who was a classmate of Dalmesia, said after thinking for a while.

"Hmph~ He's clearly a great pirate with a bounty of over 500 million, yet he's being protected by the World Government like this. It's really infuriating! That's why I think Mr. Garp is the truly righteous Marine Admiral!" Dalmesia said, pursing her lips.

Just as Garp led his Marines toward the Land of Flowers, Olvia in Ohara finally agreed to personally take care of Robin.

However, she also made a promise with Dr. Crohar that when Robin turned one year old, she would definitely set off with an expedition to find the Poneglyphs, because that was her biggest dream.

Reina, who was still on the Grand Line, was unaware that Ohara had formed the "Poneglyph" expedition team a few years earlier than in the original story because of him.

He always believed that Ohara and Olvia had heeded his advice and had not touched the Poneglyphs, the blank century of history, so he was still very confident in Ohara.

Meanwhile, World Government intelligence agents also came to the West Blue to investigate Reyna's frequent visits, and their first stop was Ohara.

With the support of the entire Whitebeard Pirates crew, Reina once again headed towards Ohara in the West Blue to confirm that there were no problems there.

However, due to the orientation, Reina encountered a small island when crossing the Calm Belt.

Upon seeing the two enormous characters in the very center of the island, he knew that he had unintentionally arrived at the Nine-Snake Island, the land of women.

"I wonder if the future empress has been born yet!" Reina muttered, looking at the Nine Serpents Island not far away.

However, he didn't go there; he needed to go and check if O'Hara was alright.

When Reina arrived in Ohara, he didn't tell Olvia, so he was full of surprise when he opened the door and saw Olvia holding and playing with Robin.

"You... why are you here again?" Olvia asked in alarm, unsure whether to put Robin down or continue holding her.

"Hmm? You're not happy I'm here?" Reina said, feigning anger. "Little one, you're sleeping soundly! Why did you bring Robin over? She's so young, she should be more attached to her mother, right?"

“Um… Matthew and the others are quite busy today and can’t take care of everything, so I’m helping them look after Robin!” Olvia asked, feigning calmness, when she heard Reina’s question.

“Isn’t little Robin adorable?! How about we have one too?” Reina laughed and said deliberately.

He assumed that Olvia's unusual behavior was because she also wanted to have a child.

Olvia blushed. She knew Reina had misunderstood, but she also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Did you go back and discuss it with your father? Did he say anything?" Olvia subtly changed the subject.

"Yes, Dad said the Whitebeard Pirates are our support, so we don't need to worry!" Sure enough, Reina didn't notice at all, and Olvia successfully changed the subject.

After spending a few more days in Ohara, Reina realized that neither the Navy nor the pirates were coming anymore, so he prepared to leave.

But just as he was about to leave, he heard that the pillar of the Happo Navy of the Flower Country, a great pirate with a bounty of over 500 million, known as the top-level strongman known as the Cone Chinjao, was defeated by the Navy hero Garp with a single punch.

"Tsk tsk tsk... As expected of a monster-level powerhouse, Garp's strength has probably truly reached its peak!" Reina shook his head and said with emotion.

"Naval hero Garp? He's amazing?!" Olvia looked at Reina and asked.

“He must be one of the strongest in this world! The only ones who can truly challenge him are Roger, Shiki the Golden Lion, and the likes of Big Brother!” Reina nodded and said, “Although he’s a Marine, don’t be afraid if you meet him. He’s a true champion of justice!”

"What am I afraid of? I'm not a pirate! But since he's in the West Blue, you should be careful and set off as soon as possible!" Olvia said with a hint of worry.

Reina didn't tell her that he had run into Karp when he went back last time.

"Okay!" Reina kissed Olvia before boarding his specially made small boat and leaving.

Little did he know that as he and Olvia said goodbye at the port, a man in a black suit was secretly watching everything from a distance.

"I see... Akame Reina! This is why the vice-captain of the Whitebeard Pirates often comes to the West Blue! We need to report back quickly and see if we can use this information to plot against the Whitebeard Pirates!" The man in the black suit turned and left after Reina left.

After seeing Reina off, Olvia didn't go straight home. Instead, she went to her brother's house and brought Robin back.

But as soon as he entered the house, he discovered that there was an uninvited guest.

"Who are you? Why are you in my house!" Olvia asked warily, holding Robin in her arms.

“Nicole Olvia?” the man in the suit asked softly as he sat on the sofa.

"So you've come to see me? Then tell me why you're here!" Olvia took a deep breath and said.

“Very good. The World Government would like to invite you back as a guest. I wonder if Miss Olvia can cooperate?” the man in black asked with a light laugh.

"The World Government?" Olvia's heart sank, and she narrowed her eyes, saying, "I wonder what you mean by taking me away?"

Although O'Hara had only just begun studying the Poneglyphs, they had already gleaned some information from the remaining traces and understood why Reiner had prevented them from touching the Poneglyphs.

"Miss Olvia, let's be frank. Given your relationship with the Whitebeard Pirates, it's not wrong for us to ask you to go back, is it?" The man in black waved his hand, and several other men dressed in black entered from outside, blocking Olvia's escape route.

"You... came for Reina!?" Olvia was taken aback. While she began to worry about Reina, she also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. The other party was not here because they knew they were studying historical texts.

What Reina said was truly terrifying. If the World Government found out they were researching historical texts, the entire Ohara would disappear. The price was too high for them to pay.

“That’s right. As long as we capture you, we won’t have to worry about Reina not submitting. And by capturing Reina, we can also use this to strike at the Whitebeard Pirates! We might even be able to wipe out the entire Whitebeard Pirates in one fell swoop!” The man in black seemed very proud and was not afraid that Olvia would know. He didn’t hide anything and directly told her the plan.

"You won't succeed!!" Olvia's heart sank. If it were these World Government personnel in front of her, she wouldn't be worried at all. With Reina's strength, she could easily deal with them.

But she knew that Garp, known as a naval hero, was in the West Blue at that moment.

As Reina had said before, Garp's strength is among the top in the world. With Reina's current strength, he is no match for Garp in a fair fight, let alone being outmaneuvered by them.

Chapter 118 Trap

Reina, who was on his way to the Grand Line, was unaware of everything that had happened in Ohara.

After the World Government's intelligence agents secretly captured Olvia, they took her to Vice Admiral Garp, the hero of the Marines.

They knew they couldn't defeat the Whitebeard Pirates on their own, so they hoped to use Garp's strength to deal with Reina. However, Garp had always been at odds with the World Government, so they went directly to Garp's lieutenant, Bocato.

"So you're saying you captured the wife of the pirate Akame Reyner, used her as bait to capture Reyner, and then used Reyner to further lure and capture the Whitebeard Pirates?" Bocato asked with some surprise after hearing what the CP0 intelligence officer said.

“That’s right, we have now successfully captured the most important hostage. All we need to do now is send out a message, and Reina will definitely come to rescue the hostage. Then we can easily capture Reina!” The CP0 intelligence officer in the black suit said triumphantly.

In fact, if they weren't wary of the Whitebeard Pirates' strength, they wouldn't have sought cooperation with the Navy to share the credit.

"Then why don't you report directly to Lord Garp? What's the point of coming to me?" Bocato said calmly.

“We can indeed report it up, and then the higher-ups will issue a document ordering your cooperation! But in that case, we'll only have the credit for capturing Nico Olvia! But if you cooperate with us and wipe out the Whitebeard Pirates, the credit will be different. You'll get a lot of credit too, which is a win-win situation!” The CP0 intelligence officer explained to himself.

Although Bocato wanted to capture Reina and even wipe out the Whitebeard Pirates, he did not want to do it in this way. Moreover, he knew that Reina would not dare to approach Garp because he knew that Garp would definitely refuse him.

He had been by Garp's side for many years and was naturally influenced by him, so he didn't have much affection for the people of the World Government.

However, although he disliked the other party, he wouldn't be as rude as Garp. So he politely told the other party that with Garp present, he couldn't mobilize the Navy at all, thus rejecting the other party's proposal.

After the World Government personnel left, Pocato immediately went to find Garp.

"The other side is gone?" Garp asked without looking up as he saw Bocato enter.

This is Navy territory, so Garp already knew when the World Government people arrived. He was just happy that they didn't come looking for him.

"They seem to have captured Reiner's wife, intending to use her to threaten Reiner, and then use Reiner to lure and capture the entire Whitebeard Pirates!" Bocato told Garp directly about their plan.

"Hahaha... The likes? They think they can take on the Whitebeard Pirates? Hmph, aren't they underestimating pirates? Fine, let them suffer a bit so they'll know what kind of opponent our Navy is facing!" Garp laughed, his face full of disdain.

"Sir, are we really not going to help the World Government? If they really do capture Reiner's wife, then given Reiner's personality, he will definitely come to rescue her. Even if they don't wipe out the Whitebeard Pirates, capturing Reiner shouldn't be a problem!" Bocato hesitated for a moment before asking.

"So what if we captured that kid? Do you think Whitebeard will let it go? Now is not the time to start a full-scale war with Whitebeard!" Garp sighed and said.

"Then we..."

"Let's wait and see!" Garp said after a moment of contemplation.

Meanwhile, World Government intelligence agents, unable to ascertain Reina's whereabouts, began spreading rumors in the West Blue, falsely claiming that Nico Olvia, an archaeologist from Ohara, had been arrested by the World Government for violating its rules and would soon be executed.

"Have you heard? A scholar from Ohara was arrested by the World Government for researching the Void Century!" On a small island in the West Blue, closest to the Calm Belt, many people had heard the news and were making a fuss.
