Barto Club, naturally, also has a lot of blood on its hands here.
However, Kuro said that he would give Wilbur the credit he promised, and that sinking him into the sea would be enough.
"Alright, let's continue and clear out the bugs here."
Kuro walked forward, a cigar dangling from his lips. "After all, this will be my base from now on. If it's not quiet, it'll cause a lot of trouble."
"Rear Admiral, aren't we going to the base first?" Colonel Wilbur asked as he directed the navy to tie up the group of pirates.
"Where are you going? Turn on the electricity over there, get the navy coming over, and also, find out how much territory you actually control now."
As he spoke, he looked up at the number on the main tree of the Yarchiman mangrove, which read 73GR.
This should be the location of the hotel district, and it's very close to 60-69GR, where the Navy and the World Government are stationed. But now pirates are causing trouble here. Clearly, Sabaody is almost completely out of control.
If we had come a year later, this place would probably have really become a lawless zone.
"What a terrible tourist island! Just because it's a pirate haven, it's been turned into this mess. How many of those so-called Supernovas have actually come this year?" Kuro asked.
"Still pending confirmation."
Crow replied, glancing at Wilbur, "Did you bring the bounty?"
"some!"
Wilbur beckoned, and a navy officer brought over a stack of bounty posters and handed them to Crowe.
"What about the intelligence?" Kro took the bounty posters, picking through them as he asked, "How many are on this island?"
"Connecting with the Sabaody Naval Forces!" Wilbur shouted.
Before long, they had already confirmed it.
Wilbur walked over and said, "Reporting to Rear Admiral Kuro, it has been confirmed that the pirates discovered so far are the captain of the 'Axe Pirates,' 'Big Axe' Dix, with a bounty of 130 million Berries."
"Russell, the Knight Commander of the 'Knights of Glory' and the 'Pegasus Knight,' has a bounty of 100 million Berries."
"Captain of the 'Uzumaki Pirates,' 'Cruel Briel,' with a bounty of 220 million Berries."
"Captain of the Bellamy Pirates, 'Hyena' Bellamy, bounty 105 million Berries."
"'Gunner Pirates' Captain, 'Quick Gunner' Anne, bounty 102 million Berries."
"And the most vicious one is the captain of the 'Golden Pirates,' the 'Golden Admiral' Basharo Roberts, with a bounty of 290 million Berries."
"Including Bartolomeo, whom you just dealt with, there are seven in total, and they are the ones known to have appeared on this island."
"What do you mean I just took care of it? Did I take care of it? Did you see the body? Let me tell you, don't believe everything you hear. You're always trying to make a big story out of nothing. You haven't even seen the body, how can you say I took care of it?"
Kuro was displeased upon hearing this and immediately said, "He may have sunk to the bottom of the sea, but what if he comes back to life? We should be truthful. If you report my achievements now and he comes back to life, it won't just be me who loses face, it will be the entire Navy who loses face, and the pirates will only laugh at us."
Are you kidding me? Could he really kill that green-haired guy in front of so many people?
Although we could kill him, wouldn't that just let others report the credit for it? We could just sink him at sea.
Since no one is going to survive anyway, Kuro still has an excuse, so that no one can report it.
"Yes! I overstepped my bounds!"
Upon hearing this, Wilbur immediately lowered his head and clenched his fists.
What a fine navy!
They are not ambitious or eager for quick success; instead, they are pragmatic and realistic. Their first thought is not their own reputation, but the reputation of the navy as a whole!
That's true. We haven't caught Bartolomeo's men, nor have we found his body. Reporting it rashly would indeed create uncertainty.
Major General Kuro was so thoughtful; what a noble man!
"If possible, I'd like to be transferred to Chambord..." Wilbur made up his mind.
Following in the footsteps of a man like that must be quite nice.
"Hmm, not bad, you have a knack for it."
Kuro saw Wilbur standing there silently with his head down and assumed that he had convinced him, so he nodded in satisfaction.
This is the kind of navy that's good; it's much better than his bunch of crooks and his subordinates.
Look at him, so obedient. He does whatever he says and never argues.
Kuro closed his eyes, his Observation Haki spreading across the entire island of Sabaody. A moment later, he opened his eyes, a red glint flashing in them.
"They're all in area 10..."
Kuro looked north, his body moved, and he disappeared in a blur.
A faint sentence lingered in the air.
"I'll go check first. Wilbur, you wait here until the local navy arrives before we act together. The rest of you come with me."
With so many naval forces around, it's best to act first if you don't want to be betrayed.
The powerful auras sensed by my Observation Haki were all in area 20.
The Sabaody Archipelago consists of several islands arranged in a ring.
To the right of Area 70 is Area 60, which is the location of the Navy and the World Government.
Above area 70 is area 20, and to the right of area 20 is area 10. From 1GR to 20GR, these areas are illegal zones and locations for human trafficking.
The northernmost area is Zone 30, which includes Chambord Park and the amusement park.
A little to the right and down is area 40, which has tourist shops and specialty shops.
Below 40 is area 50, which is also connected to area 60. This is where the official ship is made and coated.
The central location is the special area number 0. That large island is not numbered and belongs to the deep layers of Sabaody. Ordinary people cannot enter it, so it was left there. Over time, it became a lawless zone, which made people even less likely to enter. This process repeated itself until the Navy itself gave up on the island in area 0.
