Chapter 293

Karl patted Smoker's shoulder: "Have you decided where to go?"

"New World?" Shook his head.

"Paradise?" Shook his head.

"You're not going to the Four Seas, are you?"

Smoker nodded: "That's right, and I'm planning to go to the East Blue, Loguetown."

Loguetown, the place where dreams begin.

A trace of surprise flashed on Karl's face, but he quickly returned to indifference. This is probably some kind of correction!

He made Smoker not the Director of the Internal Affairs Commission in the original world, but in the end, Smoker still had to go to guard Loguetown, and he wanted to go voluntarily.

"Smoker, the East Blue is the weakest sea. Isn't it a bit of a waste of talent for a Major General like you to go there?"

Smoker said with an indifferent face: "No, you're wrong, Karl. I've already studied it. The so-called East Blue being the weakest sea is complete nonsense."

"Think about it, Gol D. Roger, Fire Fist Ace, Yasopp, Navy Hero Garp, Revolutionary Dragon, all were born in the East Blue. Are they weak?"

Karl nodded with deep understanding. The overall level of the East Blue is indeed not very good, but those who can make a name for themselves are all big shots, not to mention that there are two Emperors who haven't left the novice village in the East Blue now.

The East Blue can only be described in four words: terrifyingly strong.

"Therefore, the weakness of the East Blue is just an appearance. I am going to the East Blue to strangle all the pirates who want to go to the Grand Line in the cradle."

"Then, good luck to you, keep in touch when you have time."

Smoker smiled: "That's for sure, I won't disturb you two lovebirds, goodbye!"

Ain smiled shyly and waved goodbye to Smoker.

After Smoker left, Karl said with some emotion: "The era is about to go out of control."

"Hmm? Out of control? Why do you say that?"

Karl said meaningfully: "It is now 1517. In three years, you will naturally understand."

Ain was confused by these words, completely unaware of what Karl was selling, so she could only pinch the soft flesh on Karl's waist lightly.

"Hmph~ Don't act mysterious, speak properly!"

Karl hugged Ain's slender waist and said helplessly: "I'm telling the truth, you'll know when the time comes."

"Cut! Can't be bothered with you."

The next day, the reports about Karl had completely overwhelmed the news of Mary Geoise being destroyed. The overwhelming publicity made Karl blush even when he read the newspaper.

But this was not over yet. Sengoku was also constantly pulling with the Five Elders, saying that he must push Karl to the position of Navy Hero.

The Five Elders naturally disagreed. One Garp was already enough to give them a headache, how could there be another one?

Regarding this, Sengoku had only one sentence. He let the newspaper publicize Karl's achievements, which had already overwhelmed the influence of the Mary Geoise attack incident. If Karl didn't get what he deserved, it would probably be hard to end.

"Don't say any more, Sengoku. One Navy Hero, Garp, is enough."

"No, I just think one Navy Hero is far from enough. How many years has Garp been in the Navy? To put it bluntly, he is already a legend of the last era."

"Now the Navy needs a new legend to inspire more people to join the Navy, and now is the right time."

"Don't forget, Karl captured the criminal who destroyed Mary Geoise single-handedly and saved the reputation of the World Government. Can't he even get a Hero's Medal?"

The Five Elders were stunned. The old man with a thick golden beard took a deep breath and said to Sengoku: "Sengoku, don't be anxious. We certainly won't forget Karl's contribution, but this matter is of great importance."

"That's right, we still need to consider it again."

Sengoku slammed the table: "What else is there to consider? Since you don't want to give it, I will personally award Karl the Hero's Medal. Anyway, this is an internal matter of the Navy, isn't it?"

"Sengoku, is this the attitude you have when talking to us?"

Sengoku calmly adjusted his glasses and said nothing.

The bald man holding the First Generation Kitetsu waved his hand: "Alright, we will carefully consider this matter. Tomorrow, at the latest tomorrow, we will give you an answer, how about that?"

"That would be best."

After speaking, Sengoku got up and left.

"This guy is getting more and more impolite. Without our support, how long can he sit in this position of Fleet Admiral?"

"Alright, don't say these meaningless things. I think this guy Sengoku has long wanted to retire, but just hasn't found a suitable candidate."

"Candidate? Doesn't this guy think highly of this Navy man named Karl? Since that's the case, let's call him over and see if he is really a suitable candidate."

"Hehe, this is not bad. If this guy is the same as Sengoku and Garp, then he can forget about becoming a Navy Hero."

"Not bad."

Grand Line, New World.

"Why is it this guy Karl again? Why is it him every day? I'm almost tired of watching it."

Lucky Roux closed the newspaper speechlessly, complained to Beckman beside him, and handed the newspaper to him by the way.

"This guy is indeed hard to deal with. I will never forget the time he pitted us in Totto Land." Beckman flipped through the newspaper and continued: "Sure enough, now all the reports are about this guy Karl. The news of Mary Geoise being destroyed can no longer be seen at all."

"You mean, the news was written like this on purpose, just to erase the influence of the Mary Geoise attack incident?"

Beckman nodded: "It should be. Otherwise, how could the news of Mary Geoise only appear for one day and then disappear without a trace?"

"But this Enel is also too strange. Clearly possessing the power to destroy Mary Geoise, how could he be killed by Karl so quickly?"

Lucky Roux chuckled: "What's so strange about that? He's a fruit ability user. Alright, why care so much, come, come, drink!"

Beckman shook his head helplessly and took the wine glass. They had just experienced a big battle, it was time to relax.

Little did they know, on the other side of the Red Force, Shanks was looking at Karl's photo in the newspaper with a cautious face, and his only remaining arm was faintly aching.

"The Navy has also produced an extraordinary character!"

Public opinion continued to ferment. The newspaper even openly said that Karl was the Navy Hero of the new era and that the Navy should award Karl a Hero's Medal.

Strangely, not only did no one object, but many people supported it.

This has to mention Karl's harem, or rather, his support group. Because after the bombardment of news in the past few days, Karl's fan base began to grow explosively. Now, with the bonus of being a "heart arsonist," Karl has become a real physical monster.

Sit-ups? Sorry, Karl doesn't look at them anymore.

Marineford.

"Karl, come with me to Mary Geoise."
