I am the Bandit King of the East Sea.

A deep wound appeared on Higuma's fist, and blood flowed down.

"This newly promoted general, Higuma, seems to be somewhat different from the rumors."

Rayleigh frowned slightly; from the hasty exchange, he had already noticed something fishy.

Known as a new generation naval hero, Higuma, who successfully led the team to capture the bandit king, should not have been injured by his sword so easily, even if it was a fist against a sword.

"Was he doing this on purpose... or was he testing my limits?"

As admirals represent the highest fighting force of the navy, there's no way they could be just filling a position. That's the only thought Rayleigh could have.

"Everyone-----"

At that moment, a loud shout attracted the attention of Rayleigh and Higuma.

Little Luffy has returned to his normal human form. At this moment, he is banging his head on the ground, tears streaming down his face.

In the brief few seconds that Rayleigh and Higuma clashed.

All of Luffy's crew members were slapped away one by one by Bartholomew Kuma and disappeared into thin air.

Sentomaru has already left the scene. Without the world's most discreet man telling Luffy and the others the truth about Kuma's abilities, Luffy only thought that all his companions had disappeared, and he fell into even deeper despair.

The sun bear secretly shook its head.

As a man who had read the script, he only found Luffy noisy.

Swish!

At that moment, a figure flashed in front of Higuma.

"Are you Rayleigh, the King of Darkness?"

Tyrant Bear suddenly appeared between him and Rayleigh, his back to Sieg, and whispered something to Rayleigh:

"I am an undercover agent for the Revolutionary Army. I have a connection with the Straw Hat Pirates and I will not harm them."

"Do you think I'll believe you?" Rayleigh was slightly taken aback, a look of suspicion on his face.

"Believe it or not, it's up to you," Xiong said calmly.

"Whispering in front of a naval admiral?" The bear behind him chuckled in exasperation.

"The Seven Warlords of the Sea are ultimately untrustworthy pirates who don't take me seriously at all."

Higuma quickly plucked a hair and used Flying Thunder God Technique on the bear.

In an instant, his figure flickered and appeared behind the bear's rear, then he leaned close to the bear's ear and whispered something, everything seemed to be a replica of what had just happened.

This time, it was Xiong's turn to be startled. His usually expressionless face froze, and he stared fixedly at Ri Xiong:

Do you think I'll believe you?

"Believe it or not, it's up to you, but my solution is clearly the better choice," Higuma said.

Rayleigh: ?

He was a little confused. Just now, Xiong said he was a revolutionary, but now he's whispering with a naval admiral...

What's going on? He completely doesn't understand... Could it be that a Marine Admiral is also a Revolutionary Army spy?

Before he could figure it out, the bear's figure flickered again and appeared in front of Luffy, who was on the verge of collapse, and slapped him down.

The last member of the Straw Hat Pirates has disappeared.

Suddenly, the world became quiet.

"Although I haven't fully figured it out, what's done is done..."

Rayleigh shook his head inwardly.

Regardless of whether he believed in Bartholomew Kuma or not, Luffy and the others had already been sent flying to some unknown corner, and there was nothing he could do about it.

He glanced at the two bears, Xiong and Ri Xiong, in front of him, then leaped up and quickly disappeared around the corner of the street behind him.

Rayleigh has been retired for many years, and he doesn't want to provoke Sun Bear and Bear, no matter what their situation is, lest it cause even more trouble.

At last.

On this battlefield, only Xiong and Ri Xiong, two burly men, remained, staring at each other.

"It's over."

Sun Bear looked around.

At this point, Bartholomew Kuma had been modified by Vegapunk and transformed into a cyborg similar to Franky, being half-human and half-machine.

In the original story, Bartholomew Kuma was unable to explain his actions to the World Conquest because he had knocked Luffy and his crew away in front of Admiral Kizaru. Therefore, after the Sabaody Archipelago incident, he voluntarily underwent a complete transformation by Dr. Vegapunk, and his consciousness was completely extinguished.

However, Higuma had sent Sentomaru and the others away beforehand. As the person in charge of this operation, Higuma could conceal the matter and thus avoid being held accountable by Tyrant Kuma.

Consider it payment for the previous Big Bear Express deliveries.

Brub bru....

Just as Higuma was about to turn and leave, the Den Den Mushi in his arms was awakened.

"Admiral Higuma, an emergency has occurred. Admiral Ain on Island 1 encountered Celestial Dragon Saint Roswald, the father of the Celestial Dragon Saint Charlos who was attacked. Now, some...some trouble has arisen..."

The voice on the other end of the phone was Bakala. She didn't explain clearly what kind of trouble she was in, and there was obvious hesitation in her voice.

"Dragon people?"

Higuma frowned, immediately sensing something was wrong.

.............

Island No. 1 is the site of the attack on the Celestial Dragons and the location of the human auction house.

Of course, now only ruins remain.

Beside the ruins, the Celestial Dragon Charlos Saint is receiving emergency treatment.

Beside him, another Celestial Dragon, Roswald Saint, with a long brown beard, watched this scene with veins bulging on his face.

"How dare these mere pirates offend the majesty of the gods..."

"Haven't you caught the criminal yet?" Roswald Saint glared at the bodyguards in black suits beside him.

"The Navy is already searching, and Admiral Higuma has been dispatched. We should have results soon."

"Navy? What a load of nonsense." Roswald Saint sneered.

"What are you waiting for? First, grab a hundred slaves for me. When my son wakes up, I want to give him a hundred slaves as a gift to comfort him."

"This..." The lead bodyguard in black hesitated.

"Finding slaves isn't a problem, but if we leave, and if some lowly people still harm Saint Roswald..."

"Um....."

Saint Rozwald paused for a moment.

Just then, Ain led a group of naval and pacifists past.

"The Navy? You've come at the perfect time." Saint Roswald beckoned them over:

"Perfect timing! Go to this area and capture a hundred slaves."

Chapter 1111 Women will only slow down my fencing speed

Celestial Dragon Saint Roswald sat atop the back of a tall, strong male fish-man slave, pointing his whip at the Marines with an imperious air.

"Capture a hundred slaves?"

Having understood the Celestial Dragon Saint Roswald's request, not only Ain, but also the Marines behind him, all had slight changes in expression.

This group of naval personnel came from the NEO Legion and were the direct descendants of Sunkuma and Aion, as well as those personally trained by Zephyr.

Zephyr hoped to build a completely new army, so his teachings to the NEO Navy went beyond physical training, also instilling a sense of justice.

Upon hearing the Celestial Dragons' seemingly self-evident order, the Marines' faces turned ashen.

Despite this, no one voiced any objection.

The Celestial Dragons are like gods sitting high in the clouds. Even Zephyr and others simply chose to ignore them and didn't confront them directly.

"You want our navy to help capture slaves?"

Ain looked at the Celestial Dragon in front of her, and her expression turned ugly.

As a Marine, Ain's sense of justice is not as firm as Zephyr's, which is why she becomes an extremist who intends to destroy the world in order to follow Zephyr in the movie.

"If we get into a fight with the Celestial Dragons here, it will definitely cause trouble for Uncle Higuma and Teacher Zephyr. Even as an Admiral, we will be held accountable."

"Although the strange drumbeats may have fooled us before, if we provoke the Celestial Dragons... it will definitely be used as a weapon to attack them."

Although she thought this way, her basic sense of kindness made her hesitate.

“Saint Rozwald…” Ain finally began to speak, intending to say something.

At this moment, the Celestial Dragon, Roswald Saint, finally looked directly at them.

"Ok?"

Roswald Saint's face was bulging with fat, his eyes gleaming, and he couldn't help but lick his lips.

"She's truly a stunning beauty, practically an angel..."

"Huh?" Ain was taken aback.

Meanwhile, Bakura, who was behind her, seemed to realize something. She retreated back into the naval formation, took out a Den Den Mushi from her chest, and made a call.

"Beautiful lady... very good." Saint Roswald nodded in satisfaction.

“This beauty is worth at least ten slaves. Your navy can capture another ninety slaves for me, and that will be enough.”

The marines were all startled and looked at Ain in disbelief, following the Celestial Dragons' gaze.

"Saint Roswald..." The black-suited couple beside the Celestial Dragon hesitated for a moment.

"She's a navy woman; it wouldn't be appropriate to capture her as a slave, would it?"

The Celestial Dragons didn't know Ain, but he did.

Admiral Ain in the NEO Navy is the second-in-command of Admiral Higuma. Such a position and status makes him an absolute backbone of the Navy and not easy to catch.
