Pirates: There is no prohibition of fishing in Marijoa.

The next day, at the Naval Headquarters, Marinford.

"boom!"

In the meeting room of the navy's top brass, there was a big man with a cold face, wearing a navy cap, a dark red suit, an officer's coat behind him, black leather gloves on his hands.

It was Akainu, one of the three admirals of the navy. He slammed the newspaper on the conference table and yelled at Kizaru, who was sitting not far away with his legs crossed and looking sloppy.

"Borsalino! What the hell are you doing!"

"He was just an unknown young man. You actually let him escape in front of everyone!?"

Kizaru was already accustomed to Akainu's roar and was not moved at all.

And there's no way he would admit that he was the one who let the game go, right?

He had no idea of ​​Jerry's strength and had always thought he posed no threat, so he treated him as an ordinary petty thief, which led to this result.

Not far to Kizaru's left, there was a big, dark-faced man with curly afro lying there. He was wearing a white suit and a green eye mask, and he seemed to be sleeping soundly.

Akainu's shouting did not affect his sweet dream at all. This person was Aokiji Kuzan, who was one of the three admirals of the navy along with Kizaru Borsalino and Akainu Sakaski.

In the entire conference room, in addition to the three admirals of the navy, there were also Marshal Buddha Sengoku, the navy hero Iron Fist Garp, and several vice admirals of the navy.

What they had been discussing here for a while before was Ace, who refused the call-up of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, and Jerry, who caused trouble in the Sabaody Archipelago and seemed to have briefly confronted Kizaru, but in fact escaped after being chased all the way.

The latest world economic news newspapers were distributed in front of everyone at the conference table.

The headlines were about these two new pirates who had only been at sea for more than half a year but had already become very powerful and were beginning to make a name for themselves on the sea.

"Oh my! You don't know, that guy is more slippery than a loach, he made me run around in circles."

Picking his ears nonchalantly, Kizaru answered Akainu in a unique tone.

"Alright, alright! Stop arguing. Fire Fist Ace? Dragon Fist Jerry? One by one, it's really a headache. They actually rejected the invitation of the Seven Warlords of the Sea."

Admiral Zhan Guo, who still had black hair, a pigtailed beard, and wore frog-shaped glasses, stroked his forehead with one hand and spoke out to stop the quarrel between the two.

"Hahaha! Zhan Guo, what are you worrying about?"

"Mmm, delicious! Just reject the Shichibukai. That thing isn't that useful anyway."

Holding a pile of donuts, Karp laughed and talked as he ate, and food fragments flew everywhere as his mouth opened and closed.

"Garp! Pay attention! We're still in a meeting!"

Seeing Garp's heartless smile, Zhan Guo felt that he had worked hard for so many years, his salary had not increased, but his blood pressure had risen a lot.

"Everyone! You all already understand what's going on. Please pay more attention to these two young pirates who have recently appeared."

Tapping the table with his right hand, Zhan Guo concluded the meeting.

Where his palm was placed, there were two newly issued bounty warrants, and the photos on them were obviously of Jerry and Ace.

The bounty amounts on the two wanted posters were both in nine digits, the difference being that Ace's was in the 9 digits, while Jerry's was in the 2 digits.

……

New World, Whitebeard Pirates, on the Moby Dick.

“Gulala! Interesting! Such an interesting little brat actually appeared in the park!”

A tall figure with only a white cloak on the outside and red on the inside, well-developed muscles, a white crescent-shaped beard on his face, and a long-handled naginata in his hand, was sitting on a chair on the deck, reading a newspaper and laughing happily.

The owner of the figure is Edward Newgate with a white beard, who has titles such as "Living Legend", "Terrible than Monsters", and "The Strongest Man in the World".

At this time, hearing Whitebeard's laughter, several big men who happened to be chatting on the boat surrounded him.

"Dad! Is there any interesting news?"

One of the men with small eyes and blond hair looked up and asked curiously. He was the captain and doctor of the 1st Division of the Whitebeard Pirates, Whitebeard's right-hand man, the Phoenix Marco.

“Gullalla! This brat has not even entered the New World and he has already rejected the invitation of the Shichibukai of the World Government.”

White Beard continued to smile and handed the newspaper in his hand to Pineapple Head.

Staring at the name and photo on the wanted poster in the newspaper, Pineapple Head felt that it looked familiar and tried to recall:

"Fire Fist Portgas D. Ace? I think I've heard of him."

"I remember it, it made the headlines before."

Next to him was the captain of the 4th Division, Thatch, who had a spatula hairstyle and was wearing a chef's uniform. He responded to the pineapple-headed guy and reminded him of what had happened before.

"Oh! Now that I mention it, I remember that he defeated a Shichibukai before."

"Now he has rejected the invitation of the Seven Warlords of the Sea. I really don't know what he wants to do."

After hearing what Thatch said, Pineapple Head recalled the previous events and lamented that the current pirate rookies were completely unpredictable.

At the same time, people all over the world learned about the events in the Chabaobab Archipelago through newspapers.

While the civilians were lamenting the emergence of yet another powerful pirate, groups such as bounty hunters and pirates were doing the same as the Whitebeard Pirates.

Most people's main focus is on Ace. After all, he is a powerful pirate who first defeated the Seven Warlords of the Sea, then refused the call of the World Government and gave up his status as the Seven Warlords of the Sea.

As for the incident involving Jerry and the wanted poster in the newspaper, most people didn't pay much attention to it.

He was just a lucky pirate who happened to be with Fire Fist after causing trouble on Sabaody Island and was chased by the admiral all the way and was finally kicked away and escaped by chance.

……

Deep sea, Spade Pirates.

"Wuhu! We've finally reached Fishman Island!"

As soon as the pirates parked the ship, they cheered loudly.

"Mermaid Cafe! Here I come!"

Then some people even shouted the destination they wanted to go to.

"Fortunately, there are locals leading the way, otherwise it would not be so easy for us to arrive."

Thinking of the experience of diving, the turbulent deep-sea currents, the pitch-black ocean, and the sea beasts that appeared from time to time, everyone still feels scared and nervous.

This is a route that is said to sink 70% of the ships. Even after the coating is completed, you still have to proceed with extreme caution.

"Yes, but now that we have arrived safely, let's hurry up and charge!"

"Mermaid! Cafe!"

A group of people chatted with each other and then swarmed off the boat and ran out.

Suddenly, there were only a few people left on the boat that was bustling with activity just a moment ago.

Seeing Deus just coming out of the cabin, Jerry asked him:

"Deus, where are you going next?"

"Me? Of course I still have to keep an eye on Ace first, and then buy some necessities and specialties."

Deuce blinked and spread his hands in reply.

"Oh? Then you should keep an eye on it. Ace slipped out long ago."

Jerry was speechless, wondering if Deuce, who was still taking his time, had forgotten something.

"Huh? Ace ran away?"

Deuce's eyes widened, as if he had just come to his senses.

"Oh haha! Boss Deuce, with your speed, by the time you find Boss Ace, you'll only be able to wash dishes."

Skarl laughed strangely twice, and his skull mask opened and closed.
