Chapter 397

~4 min read 736 words

Until now,

everyone in the auction hall is still stunned there!

Logically speaking,

the situation inside the auction hall should not have spread out yet!

Moreover,

judging by Huang Yuan and the appearance of the Marines behind him,

they were clearly already waiting here for "Seven Nine Seven",

and could not possibly have come because of the sudden incident inside the auction hall!

But,

if they did not come because of the sudden incident inside the auction hall,

then why did the Navy directly dispatch an Admiral?

What did they come for?

Thinking of this,

Lei Li slowly turned his head to look at Li Xiao,

and asked:

"Is this to find you?"

Li Xiao looked at Huang Yuan before him,

and was also slightly stunned,

but after thinking for a moment,

he roughly understood!

After leaving Skypiea together with the Straw Hat Pirates,

the Going Merry fell directly into the G8 Marine Fortress!

To help the Straw Hat Pirates escape the G8 Marine Fortress,

Li Xiao once took action,

and slashed open the gate of the G8 Marine Fortress with a single sword strike!

At that time,

more than a dozen searchlights shone on the Going Merry,

illuminating the Going Merry and the surrounding sea surface as bright as day!

If nothing unexpected happened,

the commander of the G8 Marine Fortress should have recognized Li Xiao's identity at that time,

so after the Going Merry escaped the G8 Marine Fortress,

they did not dispatch warships to pursue!

And after recognizing Li Xiao,

the commander of the G8 Marine Fortress must have reported this news back to the Navy Headquarters,

plus Li Xiao did not deliberately conceal his itinerary along the way,

therefore,

after arriving at the Sabaody Archipelago,

being discovered by the Navy was a perfectly normal thing!

It's just,

what Li Xiao could not understand was,

why did the Navy come to find him?

Although Li Xiao is now one of those wanted by the Navy,

and his bounty is as high as 3.5 billion Berries,

the Navy does not need any other reason to arrest him!

But the key point is,

if they really wanted to arrest him,

why would they only send Huang Yuan alone?

The Navy is not stupid,

last time Huang Yuan and Akainu joined hands but were still no match for Li Xiao,

if they really wanted to take action against Li Xiao,

at least all three Admirals would have to come out together!

What does it mean to send only Huang Yuan alone?

Li Xiao looked at Huang Yuan before him,

raised his eyebrows slightly,

and said:

"Here to capture me?"

Huang Yuan was originally surprised why Lei Li would also appear here,

but upon hearing Li Xiao's words,

he quickly shifted his gaze to Li Xiao,

and waved his hands repeatedly, saying:

"No, no, no, you've got it all wrong! This old man alone is no match for you!"

"I've come this time on behalf of the Celestial Dragons on Mary Geoise to negotiate a deal with you!"

Looking at the Blue Frost Sword gradually materializing at Li Xiao's side,

Huang Yuan subconsciously wiped the cold sweat that didn't exist on his forehead!

Arrest Li Xiao?

What a joke!

Let alone him alone,

even if all three Marine Admirals were here,

he wouldn't want to face Li Xiao!

For other people,

the impression of Li Xiao was merely that his strength was tremendous,

tremendous enough to fight two Marine Admirals alone and gain the upper hand!

But for Huang Yuan, who had truly crossed hands with Li Xiao,

Li Xiao was not just immensely powerful,

more critically,

he also possessed all sorts of unfathomably mysterious abilities!

For example, that glazed-colored flame that could burn through Armament Haki,

for example, that Golden Barrier that could withstand the full-force attacks of both him and Akainu without a scratch,

and that cyan longsword that could chase him down and slash at his backside!

Huang Yuan had lived for so many years,

having joined the Marines at the age of twenty-six,

and had seen countless powerhouses on this great sea,

however,

if it came to the one that gave him the most headache,

it was absolutely the Li Xiao before his eyes,

without a doubt!

He, as a user of the Glint-Glint Fruit,

possessed the speed of light,

and when encountering a powerful enemy,

as long as he wanted to leave,
