Chapter 36 Mihawk, Shanks, and Gildarts! (Ch 36)

The next day.
Marine Headquarters, Marineford.
“Captain of the Buggy Pirates, Buggy the Clown with a bounty of 15 million Baileys!”
“Captain of the ‘Black Cat’ Pirates, ‘Hyakuji’ Crowe, with a bounty of 16 million berries!”
“Captain of the ‘Crick’ Pirates, ‘Admiral’ Crick, whose bounty is 17 million berries, and his second-in-command, ‘Demon’ Akin, whose bounty is 12 million berries!”
“And the captain of the Fishman Pirates, Arlong, whose bounty is 200 million Baileys. And all the officers of the Fishman Pirates, whose strength is no less than that of the million-level pirates.”
“The above are all the pirates in the East China Sea with bounties in the tens of millions! However, all of these pirates were defeated by a group, that is, the rising star of the East China Sea, ‘Sea King’ Eden.”
Lieutenant Commander Brannew of the Naval Headquarters was explaining the current situation in the East China Sea and the bad behavior of Eden and his gang to the generals and colonels sitting in the conference room.
“Most importantly…”
“Someone witnessed the battle between Eden and the world’s greatest swordsman, ‘Hawkeye’ Joracol Mihawk, at the Barati restaurant on the sea.”
“It is said that neither of them got any advantage…”
“Moreover, Major General Erza, who was in charge of the campaign against Eden and his gang, admitted that she had no way to defeat them.”
“Therefore, whether we want to or not, we must admit that the East China Sea, which is a symbol of peace, has once again become a supernova after a few years!”
“According to the special approval of Marshal Zhan Guo, the bounty given to Sea King Eden and his gang is as follows…”
When Brannew said this, his voice paused slightly, he picked up the teacup and moistened his throat.
Then, Brannew continued, “First is the captain, ‘Sea Emperor’ Eden, with a bounty of 120 million berries! Second in command, ‘Fire Dragon’ Natsu, with a bounty of 60 million berries! Third in command, ‘Rain Girl’ Juvia, with a bounty of 50 million berries! Navigator, ‘Cat Thief’ Nami, with a bounty of 20 million berries! And the pet ‘Evil Cat’ Harpy, with a bounty of 18 dollars. That’s all.”
“oh!!”
After Brannew slid down, the entire venue erupted in a heated discussion. Everyone seemed to be extremely curious about this supernova, who had earned over 100 million yuan in bounties after only one week at sea.
“Next, it’s the Straw Hat Pirates under Eden and his crew, Luffy and his crew. We’re starting to formulate a bounty for the Straw Hat Pirates…”
Brannew continued.
“Monkey D. Luffy?!”
“What’s going on with this Monkey?”
“Could it be that he is someone’s grandson again?”
In the meeting, some brigadiers looked deflated and spoke weakly after hearing that Luffy’s last name was Monkey.
Well, speaking of the last name Monkey…
I’m afraid that everyone in the entire navy, and even the whole world, knows this…
After all, as a ‘hero’ of the navy, he is as famous as the current Marshal Sengoku!
The legendary Vice Admiral Monkey D. Garp, who once chased the ‘Pirate King’ Gol D. Roger around the world and refused to be promoted to Admiral of the Navy many times, is really too famous.
and……
This is not the first or second time that Garp’s son and grandson have gone against the World Government and the Navy.
This old guy, Cap, has a criminal record.
“It’s decided.”
“The bounties for the rest of the Straw Hat Pirates are yet to be determined. Captain Luffy’s bounty is 30 million berries! As for the others, send out the wanted orders first…”
After some discussion, they finally decided on the bounty for the Straw Hat Pirates. Perhaps it was because Luffy’s last name was too conspicuous…
All the admirals and captains present decided to increase the bounty and try to capture Luffy as soon as possible to avoid the situation where Luffy gets completely out of control after he grows up.
On the other side, the Marshal’s Office…
“Okay, I will consider your report seriously.”
“You go down first! Major General Erza.”
Sengoku had just received the report submitted by Erza. He put aside the “detailed” details of the fight between Eden and Mihawk in the report, and looked at a certain disrespectful old man in the office. He was so angry that he shouted, “Eat, eat, eat! All you know is eating! Your grandson has gone to be a pirate, and you are still eating here! Garp, you bastard, get out of my office!”
“Ahahahaha…”
“Luffy, that guy really looks like his father~”
“By the way, has Luffy ever met his father?”
“Ahahahaha…”
Hearing this, Garp laughed and left the office. While laughing, he gently wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes. His expression was full of loneliness: “Luffy, have you finally chosen to go out to sea as a pirate like Ace? You really make grandpa sad.”
“Vice Admiral Garp.”
“I have something I want to trouble you with.”
After Garp was blasted out of the Marshal’s office by Sengoku, Erza, who had been waiting here for a long time, immediately went to greet him. She nodded respectfully to Garp.
At the same time, Erza thought to herself, “Is this the domineering teacher that Eden recommended to me?! Vice Admiral of the Marine Headquarters, ‘Iron Fist’ Garp.”
“Isn’t this Major General Erza?”
“You are about to be promoted to lieutenant general, and you will be on the same level as me. There is no need to be so polite to me…”
Garp smiled casually at Erza, looking particularly easy to get along with.
“Vice Admiral Garp, I actually have something to trouble you with.”
After thinking for a while, Erza asked Garp.
“What is it?”
Garp looked at Erza in confusion.
“I want to learn Haki.”
“Please teach me…”
Erza said bluntly.
“Domineering?”
“Well, come to think of it, you’re almost a lieutenant general, so it’s time to hand it over to you.”
“Then come with me, little girl.”
“Heroic power is not something that can be learned in a day or two.”
“Be prepared for me! I’m very strict.”
After thinking for a while, Karp agreed readily.
“Huh?!”
This visibly stunned Erza, and all the words she had prepared were of no use to her for a moment.
However, after Erza was slightly slow, she immediately caught up with Garp.
at the same time.
An unnamed island.
Mihawk, riding in the coffin boat, slowly docked the boat next to the island.
“Mihawk, what are you doing here?!”
“Are you planning to go to war with our boss?”
“Be on guard! Be on guard…”
As Mihawk came to the island, the whole island shook…
The members of a certain pirate group who were resting on the island looked at Mihawk who had just landed on the island with a wary look on their faces and shouted.
“No! I’m here to see your boss.”
In response to this, Mihawk shook his head. He didn’t come here to fight with these people today, but on a whim, he wanted to find the boss of the pirate group and have a good chat about the trends of the new era.
However……
When Mihawk finally saw the boss of the pirate group stationed on the island under the vigilance of these pirate soldiers…
However, he was attracted by a man standing next to the red-haired man he was looking for. The man looked 80% similar to the red-haired man he was looking for, but had short orange hair.
“Mihawk, let me introduce you.”
“This is my new friend… Gildarts.”
At the same time, the red-haired man, known as Red-haired Shanks, one of the Four Emperors who dominated the New World like an emperor, laughed at Mihawk and introduced the people around him.
Well, this person is Gildarts, the strongest fighter of the Mage Guild Fairy Tail.
