Kaido, the father-in-law, used monster cells to create the strongest Beast.

Only the cold glint in his eyes already faintly carried a hint of killing intent.

Lord Luo Xing instructed him to continue climbing the ranks in the navy, so how could he tolerate disobedient subordinates?

Vergo walked straight to the door and said:

"Since you're so arrogant, let's settle this with strength. The weak must submit to the strong!"

Smoker followed without hesitation.

"That's exactly what I wanted!"

Tashigi stamped her foot in frustration.

Why is Brigadier General Smoker already fighting with his superior on his very first day in the new world?

But Tashigi knew that once Smoker made up his mind, nothing could change it.

She couldn't dissuade them, so she had no choice but to follow them.

The three arrived at the base's arena.

A group of marines who had come to watch the spectacle immediately surrounded them.

"Look! Base Commander Vergo is about to have a match with Brigadier General Smoker!"

"Who do you think will win?"

"Of course it's the base commander! Haven't you noticed how terrifyingly powerful the base commander is becoming?!"

"That's not necessarily true. I've heard that Brigadier General Smoker is quite famous, and he's also a Logia-type Smoke-Smoke Fruit user!"

"Hehehe, this is going to be interesting. We might even be able to learn a few tricks from them!"

In the blink of an eye, hundreds of marines gathered around the arena.

They all wore expressions of excitement, after all, a competition between officers was extremely rare.

In the arena.

Vergo stood with his hands behind his back, expressionless.

Smoker had a cigarette dangling from his lips and a jib in his hand.

Under the spotlight.

Smoker made the first move.

"White smoke launcher!"

His lower body turned into white smoke, and with the propulsion of the white smoke, he rushed towards Vergo at an extremely fast speed.

The weapon was thrust forward with all ten hands.

Vergo, however, did not take his weapon, the Ghost Bamboo.

He remained standing still.

He only reached out his right hand and firmly grasped the ten hands when they were almost touching his neck.

Smoker's expression changed as he stared at Vergo's right hand, which had turned completely black.

"Armament Haki, huh? The New World is indeed teeming with powerful individuals."

In the first half of the Grand Line, especially in Loguetown where Smoker used to be stationed, there are very few people who can use Haki.

But the new world is completely different; domineering aura is just the most basic skill for the strong.

Smoker volunteered to come to the New World because he wanted to become stronger and didn't want to be seen as a weakling like an ant.

He shouted and tried to pull the ten hands out of Vergo's grasp.

However, Vergo's right hand was like an iron clamp, and no matter how much force Smoker used, it remained completely still.

Smoker was getting impatient and was about to use all his strength.

suddenly,

Vergo-Song.

Smoker lost his footing and fell backward.

Vergo lunged forward, his fist, covered in Armament Haki, slamming mercilessly into Smoker's abdomen.

".‖puff!"

Smoker coughed up a mouthful of blood.

He was sent flying backwards and crashed heavily onto the ground outside the ring!

From the start of the competition to the determination of the winner, only half a minute elapsed.

The marines watching were dumbfounded.

An excited and enthusiastic cheer immediately erupted.

"Base Commander Vergo!"

"Base Commander Vergo is too strong!"

"Commander Vergo is invincible!"

As for Smoker, who was defeated, no one paid attention, after all, it was only Smoker's first day at the G5 branch.

Only Tashigi, her face pale, came to Smoker and helped him up.

Smoker's face was extremely pale at this moment.

He never expected that he would be instantly killed by his opponent!

There wasn't even the slightest chance to resist!

This isn't really surprising; Vergo's strength was already above Smoker's.

After consuming Luo Xing's (De Liao De) Demon-level monster cells, his strength increased dramatically, allowing him to hold his own against even a Marine Admiral for a period of time.

Let alone Smoker, who hasn't even really mastered Haki yet?

Vergo looked down at Smoker, who was struggling to his feet, and said coldly:

"If you don't obey my orders next time, you won't just suffer a minor scratch like this."

After all,

Without even glancing at Smoker's angry glare, he went straight back to the base command center.

The command center door was tightly closed.

Vergo pulled out the bottom drawer, inside which was a small black Den Den Mushi.

When Vergo dialed the number, the coldness, arrogance, and authority he had just faced with Smoker instantly transformed into a cautious attempt to please him, and a kind of worshipful awe.

beep~

The call is connected.

Vergo took a deep breath and said in an extremely respectful voice:

"Hello, is this Lord Luo Xing? Your subordinate, Vergo, has something important to report!"

109. Whitebeard Jr. joins the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and Zephyr (Black Arm) defectes from the Navy! (Please subscribe)

Carrot in her Sulong form is incredibly flexible and can strike countless poses.

Among Luo Xing's women, she is undoubtedly ranked first.

Even Komurasaki, who ate the Smooth-Smooth Fruit, cannot be compared to Carrot.

Luo Xing had Carrot wash off the scent from his body, intending to visit his wife Yamato, who was distributing Super Seeds and Multi-functional Cybertronians to the people throughout Wano Country.

Just as I was about to leave, the black Den Den Mushi rang.

Luo Xing's eyes flashed; this Den Den Mushi was an encrypted Den Den Mushi he used specifically to communicate with Vergo.

Vergo generally wouldn't make this call unless there was an urgent situation to report.

Luo Xing answered the phone.

A respectful voice immediately came from the other end:

"Lord Luo Xing, your subordinate Vergo has something important to report to you!"

"Speak," Luo Xing said succinctly.

Vergo's voice said, "Former Navy Admiral Black Arm Zephyr has defected from Navy Headquarters!"

Vergo's phone call was obviously not about Smoker.

Smoker is nothing to me; Vergo could easily handle him himself. He's not even worthy of alarming Lord Luo Xing.

Vergo was reporting on a recent, extremely important event within the Navy.

Former Admiral Black Arm Zephyr betrayed the Navy and stole the Blast Rock, which is said to be as powerful as an Ancient Weapon!

Even Luo Xingfu was briefly startled when he heard the news.

Luo Xing remembered that Black Arm Zephyr's betrayal should have occurred after the Marineford War.

Since the Marineford War hasn't even started yet, why has Zephyr left the Navy ahead of schedule?
