From Pirates to the Strongest Death God in Soul Society

Chapter 166 Bane: My killing of Doflamingo was in accordance with rules and procedures!

A deserted island in the New World Gateway Sea.

Warships are anchored here, and a large number of navy ships are obtaining fresh water from the island and hunting wild animals for food supplies.

At the edge of the island's beach, Bane was sitting on a rock with a life card in his hand.

There was a man standing in front of him, it was Trafalgar Law.

"I'll take your life card." Bane put the life card in his pocket and looked at Trafalgar Law.

"Then let's say goodbye here?" Trafalgar Law looked at the sea in the distance and said softly.

"Don't be so impatient. I'll come to you when I get back to headquarters and finish the things I have on hand." Bane nodded in response.

"During this period, I will obtain as much intelligence as possible about the Don Quixote family. In fact, my subordinates are lurking in Dressrosa right now. Doflamingo has not been in Dressrosa in the past few days, and we have not been able to find out where he has gone. I will inform you when there is a result." Trafalgar Law said.

"Be careful and don't die." Bane patted the boy on the shoulder and said with a smile.

On the Punk Hazard side, Monet and Caesar died inexplicably, and Doflamingo has not yet found out who the murderer is and has no clue at all.

But this incident directly led to the bankruptcy of the "artificial devil fruit" transaction plan he had just reached with Kaido. Kaido, who has a bad temper, doesn't care what the reason is. Doflamingo has disappeared now, and it is very likely that he is trying to put out the fire for Kaido and use other methods to compensate Kaido's Beasts Pirates.

It's not just Kaido's side. Charlotte Linlin should be quite angry too. After all, she had just injected a huge amount of scientific research funds into Caesar and was still dreaming of the giant dream, but in the end the project fell through.

Even in Charlotte Lingling's opinion, she felt that Caesar had run away with the money.

And the man in the middle of all this is Doflamingo.

Bane would find it strange if he could sit peacefully in Dressrosa eating hot pot and singing songs.

Soon, Trafalgar Law left in his submarine.

By the afternoon, the navy's supplies were completed, and Bane did not delay any longer. He boarded the warship and began to return to the navy headquarters.

On the deck, Nami was wearing a pair of glasses, sitting under the mast, reading a thick book.

Ben walked past her and glanced down at the title of the book: Superstitious Iron Block, From Entry to Grave.

Bane???

No, what the hell are you looking at?

Next to Nami, there was a pile of books. After taking a look, Bane couldn't help but smile.

"If there's anything you don't understand, feel free to ask me." Bane suddenly spoke to Nami who was obsessed with books.

Nami seemed to have just realized that Bane was beside her. She was startled and glared at Bane complainingly. Then she smiled and nodded, saying, "No problem, just wait and see. I just didn't try before. In fact, maybe I am also a rare martial arts genius. It won't be long before I can surprise you!"

"Hahahaha, then I'm looking forward to it." Bane said with a laugh.

“By the way, I also want a Devil Fruit Encyclopedia, but I don’t have enough borrowing privileges at the moment. When we get back, please help me find one.” Nami suddenly seemed to remember something and said quickly.

"So, you are planning to become a user of special abilities?" Bane asked with a little curiosity. "Yes, it may sound like a trick, but becoming a user of special abilities is a great way to quickly become stronger, isn't it?" Nami said calmly.

"There's nothing tricky about it, and it's nothing to be ashamed of." Ban comforted Nami, and then said, "I still have a lot of powerful devil fruits in my hands, you..."

"Of course I know, but I still want to take a look at the illustrations first and learn more about it in depth. After all, this may be a choice that will determine the rest of your life." Nami said seriously.

"Okay, I'll find you an illustrated book when I get back. I remember there's one at the teacher's house." Ben agreed without further persuasion.

Without delaying Nami from studying the material, Bane quickly walked to the fence, lit a cigarette, looked at the sea in the distance, and thought about many confusing questions in his mind.

After a while, Ian came out of the cabin. She looked around the deck and when she saw Bane, she immediately walked over.

"Young Master." Ian called out.

Bane felt a little uncomfortable hearing this title at first, but now he has begun to get used to it.

He turned to look at Ain and asked, "What's wrong?"

"Our return date has been reported to the headquarters. At the same time, I exchanged information with some colleagues in the headquarters. It seems that Marshal Zhan Guo has been preparing to step down as marshal these days. It is reported that the position of Chief Inspector, which has been vacant for a long time, seems to be reactivated." Ian reported.

"Really? I see." Bane nodded but didn't comment.

Seeing this, Ian didn't want to ask any more questions. She stood quietly beside Bane and looked at the sea with him.

After about ten minutes, Ian suddenly asked, "Are you really going to attack Don Quixote Doflamingo?"

"Of course," Bane said without hesitation.

After a brief pause, Bane looked at Ian with a smile and said, "Why? Do you have a past with Doflamingo?"

"No, but even though I wish to kill all these pirates, he is a member of the Shichibukai after all, and your identity is different from before. You were not a navy back then, so no one could hold you accountable for attacking Crocodile. But now, if you attack the Shichibukai for no reason, it is very likely to affect your future plans in the navy, isn't it?" Ian said with some concern.

Before Bane could speak, Ian continued in a deep voice: "You are the successor recognized by the teacher. The teacher sat on the throne of the admiral in the past, so I also hope to see the day when you are promoted to the admiral of the navy. Therefore, if taking action against Doflamingo will affect this matter, I hope that you can think twice before acting and postpone it for a while. It won't be considered a breach of promise, right?"

"Ahahahahaha" Bane laughed after hearing this, then he grinned and said, "Ain, Teacher Zephyr told me to ask you if I don't understand something in the navy. So, let me ask you, under what circumstances can the navy allow action against the Seven Warlords of the Sea?"

"In the first case, the Shichibukai refuse the compulsory conscription order issued by the Marshal and the Admiral of the Marine Headquarters. In this case, once the Shichibukai refuse, it will be deemed that they have given up their status as Shichibukai, and then we can naturally take action against them." Iin said without hesitation.

Then, she continued, "In the second case, the Seven Warlords of the Sea seriously threaten the safety of the Navy and cause heavy losses to the Navy. After this happens, the Navy can immediately launch a retaliatory strike and, depending on the circumstances, eliminate them. If there is sufficient evidence afterwards, they can be exempted from responsibility."

"The third situation" Ian obviously wanted to continue.

But Ben raised his hand to stop her from speaking, grinning and saying, "Then, under what circumstances can it be considered that the Seven Warlords of the Sea have seriously threatened the safety of our navy and caused heavy losses to the navy?"

This question made Ian hesitate. After a moment, she shook her head and said, "In fact, there is no detailed regulation for this matter. In the past few years, the Seven Warlords of the Sea have endangered the interests of our navy many times, but no one has ever used this regulation to retaliate against the Seven Warlords of the Sea."

"So, generally speaking, what situations do our navy consider to be serious threats?" Bane asked again.

"When high-ranking officers at or above the rank of Lieutenant General are harmed, it is considered a serious threat." This time, Ain answered very straightforwardly.

"That's enough." Bane said with a ruthless look in his eyes: "In that case, I can follow the rules and beat Doflamingo to death, and no one can find fault with him!"

Ion was stunned for a moment. She looked at Bane with a little confusion and said, "You mean, you want to set up a trap to trick Doflamingo into taking action against you? This way, it is in line with the regulations, but Doflamingo may not be so stupid."

"There's no need to go to so much trouble. He has already committed serious crimes against our navy!" Bane sneered.

This guy arranged for a pirate to infiltrate the Navy Headquarters and provided a large amount of resources and support, causing this pirate to become a vice admiral of the Navy Headquarters and even serve as the base chief of a naval base in the New World.

Doesn’t this constitute a serious threat to the safety of the navy?
If this matter were to get out, the navy's credibility would collapse immediately. Would they still have the nerve to survive on the sea?
It is definitely a serious threat! Heavy losses!
