26: Chapter 26 Garp, the Arrival of the Sengoku Period
The first page prominently featured a photograph.
Although the person in the photo was wearing a neat Marine uniform, that face was identical to the man standing right in front of them, wearing a floral shirt and flip-flops!
Beside the photo was the highest-level official seal of the World Government!
Name: Carl.
Rank: Marineford Admiral!
Codename: None!
" Ca... Ca... Carl Admiral!!! "
The Rear Admiral let out a desperate, shrill howl, his legs instantly losing all strength.
" Thud! "
This Marine Rear Admiral, who had been arrogant and overbearing just a moment ago, fell straight to his knees on the ground, his command sword clattering as it dropped from his hand.
His entire body trembled violently like a sieve, and cold sweat instantly soaked his uniform like a waterfall.
" Ad... Admiral! I am sorry! I was blind! I did not know you were here on official business! "
The Rear Admiral kowtowed frantically while crying out incoherently.
This man before him was the monster who had wreaked havoc at the Marineford War just a few days ago and slapped Whitebeard back with a single palm!
He had actually just ordered his men to open fire on an Admiral!
Hearing the Rear Admiral's exclamation.
The hundreds of Marine soldiers surrounding them, rifles in hand, were also scared out of their wits at that moment.
" Thud! Thud! Thud! "
Hundreds of rifles were tossed onto the ground in unison, and all the soldiers knelt before Carl in droves.
In the entire hall, only the sound of the Marines shivering and kowtowing remained.
Hachi and Camie, standing behind Carl, had jaws that were practically hitting the floor.
They had originally thought Carl was a powerful pirate or bounty hunter.
As it turned out... he was actually the highest combat power of Marineford?!
An Admiral, personally coming here to beat a Celestial Dragon into a cripple?!
Was the world crazy, or had they not woken up yet?!
" That is enough, stop kowtowing, you are giving me a headache. "
Carl waved his hand impatiently.
He pulled his golden personal Den Den Mushi from his pocket and dialed Smoker's number directly.
" Brrr... Brrr... Click. "
The Den Den Mushi connected, and Smoker's cautious, even slightly numb voice came through.
" Admiral Carl... what earth-shattering thing have you done this time? "
" Nothing much, just took down a black market human trafficking den while I was at it. "
Carl's tone was calm, as if he had just stepped on an anthill.
" Bring your men and get over to the human auction house in Area 1 to clean up the mess. "
" Seal this place for me. Confiscate all illegal assets and use them for our warship's food budget. "
Hearing Carl's words, Smoker on the other end of the Den Den Mushi breathed a sigh of relief: " Thank goodness it is just sealing an auction house; I thought you went to attack Mary Geoise... I am bringing my men over immediately! "
" Also. "
Carl paused, his gaze glancing at Rosward Saint on the ground.
" Strip this fat pig Celestial Dragon on the ground named Rosward bare. "
" Along with that Charlos Celestial Dragon from Area 13, the one whose teeth I knocked out earlier. "
Carl's voice instantly became incomparably cold, exuding a bone-chilling murderous aura.
" Find the thickest cable you can. "
" Hang this father and son side by side, upside down, from the tallest Yarukiman Mangrove in Area 1! "
" Let everyone in the entire Sabaody Archipelago see clearly that this is the consequence of not accepting nine years of compulsory education and causing trouble everywhere! "
On the other end of the Den Den Mushi, Smoker's breathing completely stopped.
The Marine Rear Admiral and the hundreds of soldiers kneeling before Carl felt as if their hearts had stopped beating!
Hang... hang a Celestial Dragon?!
This would cause the entire World Government to lose face; this is going to turn the world upside down!!!
" Ca... Admiral Carl... "
Smoker's voice came through the Den Den Mushi, trembling violently and even verging on tears: " Are... are you joking? Those are World Nobles! Hanging them on a tree... Marineford really will launch a Buster Call and raze this place to the ground! "
" Stop talking nonsense to me. "
Carl's eyes sharpened, and a terrifying elder's pressure transmitted directly through the Den Den Mushi.
" I am the elder here; when adults make decisions, children just need to follow them. "
" If something goes wrong, I will take the heat! Whoever dares to save those two fat pigs, I will shove their head into the hollow of a mangrove tree! "
" Beep—click! "
Carl hung up the phone in an extremely domineering manner.
He did not even look at the Marine soldiers kneeling on the ground, who were so scared they were about to faint, and turned to wave at Luffy and Ace.
" Let's go, the air here is too foul. "
" Your uncle is taking you to buy the 'Huanggang Exam Papers'. "
Carl led his two nephews and strode out of the shattered auction house gate.
Leaving behind a group of terrified Marines and the debris scattered all over the hall.
Just as the three of them stepped out of the auction house and onto the open street outside.
A sudden change occurred!
The originally clear sky suddenly darkened!
" Rumble—! "
A massive dog-headed warship, like a burning meteorite, smashed through the thick clouds above the Sabaody Archipelago, bringing with it a terrifying pressure capable of destroying the world, and crashed into the ruins of Area 1!
The violent shockwave kicked up a hundred-meter-high wave of earth, completely grinding the surrounding ruins into dust.
" Carl, you little bastard!!! Do you want my grandsons to be buried with you!!! "
Before the dust had settled, Garp's roar of extreme fury exploded like thunder.
This Marine hero's eyes were bloodshot, his muscles were coiled, and his fists were wrapped in suffocating black and red Haoshoku lightning as he glared fixedly at Carl below.
Beside Garp, Fleet Admiral Sengoku was glowing with intense golden light, a phantom of the Great Buddha looming behind him, radiating supreme majesty that suppressed everything.
" Carl! You are simply lawless! How dare you... the Celestial Dragons... "
Sengoku was trembling with rage, pointing at Carl and cursing.
Facing these two highest authorities of Marineford, the living legends, all the Marine soldiers present had long since collapsed to the ground in terror, not even daring to lift their heads.
Luffy and Ace were even more terrified, shrinking their necks; after all, that was the grandfather who had beaten them up since they were little!
However, Carl just nonchalantly picked his ear, not even bothering to lift his eyelids.
" At your age, your voice is still so loud? "
Carl slowly reached for his waist, gripping the dark purple seven wolves belt, which made a crisp " snap " sound in the air.
" Sengoku, Garp. "
Carl's voice was not loud, but it instantly drowned out the roar of the entire scene: " You two old geezers, cursing without knowing right from wrong, do you want to get whipped? "
