Chapter 24 - Chapter 24

What to do?

How to act now?

No,

No matter what happens, we cannot sit idly by and wait for death.

Even if it's a little late, we must report this to Naval Headquarters as soon as possible, so the Marines can dispatch their forces to the West Blue.

Upon reaching this conclusion,

Lieutenant Commander Bennett struggled to regain his composure, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and was about to hang up the phone.

"Wait..." but,

just at the moment he wanted to end the conversation,

Tengen calmly said:

"Pass it to me!"

He pointed to the phone and quietly added:

"I want to clarify the approximate location of Byrnndi World."

Sleepiness sets in,

and then someone brings a pillow.

At first, I thought there wouldn't be any calls, but there it is, it appeared.

If I remember correctly, Byrnndi World, known as the "World Breaker," was a great pirate who roamed the seas 30 years ago, and one of those who escaped from Eternal Hell on the sixth level of Impel Down. He possesses the power of the Multiplication Fruits and is very powerful.

But so what?

No matter how strong Byrnndi World may be,

in the movie adaptation "Poseidon 3D2Y," he couldn't stand against the Luffy. He was defeated by luffy, who had just mastered Armor Haki using the "Rubber Flame Fist."

And now?

He's come to the West Blue to create chaos and take revenge on the Marines.

Well then, excuse me,

better to become a stepping stone for luffy,

or perhaps you can serve as a springboard for me, since you're so useful. Let the "King of Bounty Hunting," Tengen, become famous worldwide.

"Ah!" Lieutenant Commander Bennett furrowed his brow and wanted to ask something,

but,

looking into Tengen's smiling eyes, he was frightened and couldn't say a word.

"Pass it to me!" Tengen reached out and took the phone receiver, firmly stating:

"Where is Byrnndi World?"

"Who... who are you?" a marine soldier asked cautiously on the other side of the line.

"There's no need to worry," Tengen shook his head and added more seriously:

"Just answer my question."

"..." There was silence,

the other end of the line went quiet for a few moments.

After a few minutes,

apparently realizing that Lieutenant Commander Bennett was not going to intervene, the marine soldier on the other end cautiously reported:

"According to the latest information we just received, Byrnndi World appeared with a group of pirates on Herd Island, a large trading island in the Western Blue Ocean. He is gathering those pirates who escaped here earlier and has already made threats that the Marines of the Western Blue Ocean and the 'King of Bounty Hunting' Tengen will pay a bloody price."

"Perhaps in just a few hours, these words will spread throughout the Western Blue Ocean, shaking it to its core..."

As he said this,

the marine soldier's voice on the other end was clearly trembling.

Not surprising,

a notorious pirate who just escaped from Impel Down,

even the thought of his threats of revenge on the Marines incites fear. Now, we can only hope that the Naval Headquarters will have time to send reinforcements.

"You said Byrnndi World mentioned me, the King of Bounty Hunting?" Tengen expressed surprise and couldn't help but ask.

Damn,

he definitely hadn't contacted Byrnndi World, right?

But now that he's been mentioned, this looks strange.

"Yes..." the soldier on the other end seemed to recall something and explained:

"It appears that the five largest mafia families of the Western Blue Ocean paid Byrnndi World a huge sum to kill the King of Bounty Hunting."

"..."

Understanding flickered in Tengen's eyes.

So the mafia families are behind this?

Not surprising!

If I remember correctly,

among the pirates he captured in the West Blue were leaders of these five mafia families.

But,

a dog that bites doesn't bark;

the five mafia families turned out to be quite patient.

Before Byrnndi World arrived, they organized several counterattacks, but after failing, they accepted it. And now, with his arrival, they immediately struck.

"Interesting... it's all getting more and more interesting."

Whistle!

The sound ripped through the air,

and Tengen's body vanished from the office.

Clang!

Immediately following that,

there was the sound of a telephone receiver dropping onto the table.

"Finally, he's gone. Why is it so unsettling?"

After Tengen left the room,

Lieutenant Commander Bennett sighed with relief.

Just now,

one look from Tengen

was enough for him to feel an invisible pressure that froze his entire body and muddled his thoughts.

"Commander Bennett, are you still there?"

"What are we going to do now?"

"It's World Breaker—Byrnndi World. Our Western Blue Ocean Marines won't be able to stop him."

"...…"

After a few seconds,

a few more frightened voices came from the phone on the table.

"I'm still here!"

"Don't act recklessly." I will immediately contact Fleet Headquarters for instructions, Lieutenant Commander Bennett composed himself, picked up the receiver, spoke a few words, and hung up.

He vaguely suspected that Tengen was planning something serious.

But... there is almost no chance. The "King of the Bounty Dance" might be famous in the Western Blue Ocean and capable of handling pirates with bounties in the hundreds of millions, but... facing "World Breaker" Byrnndi World, whose fame echoes across the seas, he is just a small grain before the storm. It's not enough.

Better to report to Fleet Headquarters and see what the higher-ups say.

"Who should I report to?" Bennett frowned, deep in thought.

Usually, as the head of the Western Blue Ocean T-1 division, he reports to the Vice Admiral at Fleet Headquarters. But... the situation is special. Should he inform the superior command?

"Alright, it's serious. I'll report directly to Admiral Sakazuki!"

Within a few seconds, Bennett had already made his decision.

It's just the right time to inform Admiral Sakazuki that the "King of the Bounty Dance" Tengen seems to be about to move against "World Breaker" Byrnndi World. Let's see how he will react.
