Chapter 329

~7 min read 1,225 words

After listening to the past events told by Sengoku, Karl sighed silently in his heart. Being a Navy Fleet Admiral is really not easy; it's clearly being a scapegoat, and having bitterness that can't be spoken.

"Karl, do you think my approach back then was right?"

After thinking for a long time, Karl said: "From the perspective of an ordinary person, it might be a bit heartless, but from the perspective of the Navy, doing so was not wrong."

"If it were me, I would make the same choice as you."

"Yes~ it's a pity that I couldn't do it back then, but it's not too late now."

Karl's eyes lit up, and he remembered what Sengoku had said to Staff Officer Tsuru a few years ago. Could it be that Sengoku had already made up his mind to take action against the Whitebeard Pirates?

"I only told you about Ace, don't go around telling others, you know?"

"Understood, understood, my mouth is the tightest, rest assured!"

"Hahahaha, you... have a good vacation, I won't disturb you anymore."

Then the Den Den Mushi was hung up, and the VIP lounge suddenly fell into silence.

For the next two days, Karl had a pretty good time in the Huang Jincheng. He played almost all the entertainment projects in the Huang Jincheng, and he didn't have to spend money. It was just too cool.

It was just that considering that, uh, World Noble had to go back, he had to escort her back.

When boarding the warship, many Navy soldiers were still not satisfied.

"Hey, sir, there's a situation ahead, it seems to be... a merchant ship. Should we warn them to avoid it?"

In the past, Nelson wouldn't even bother to care, just bypass it, but now they had a World Noble on their ship.

Karl waved his hand: "No need, they have already avoided it, but notify everyone to prepare for battle."

"Yes!"

On that merchant ship, there was a powerful aura that made people unable to ignore it.

The distance between the merchant ship and the Holy Light was getting closer and closer, and Karl also saw its full picture. This was a quite luxurious ship. The person on the ship must be very rich, and the destination should be the Huang Jincheng.

That powerful aura came from a middle-aged man leaning against the cabin.

Black short hair, a circle of beard around his mouth, an "X"-shaped scar on the left side of his forehead, tall stature, wearing a light purple kimono.

Wearing wooden clogs, holding a cane sword, he seemed to have sensed Karl's gaze, actually raised his head and showed a smile in Karl's direction, nodding to signal.

Karl's mouth curled up slightly. He didn't expect to meet Issho here.

After thinking a little, Karl guessed why Issho could appear on a luxury merchant ship. If he played the role, it would be a bodyguard.

"Sir, it really seems to be a merchant ship!"

Karl nodded: "Don't worry about them, continue forward."

Merchant ship - Hathor.

A young noble recognized Karl's ship with sharp eyes and shouted excitedly: "Look, it's the Holy Light, that's the ship of the Navy Hero Vice Admiral Karl!"

"Vice Admiral Karl! I'm your fan!!!"

Karl: Don't, I'm afraid you'll kill me in a single strike if you turn around...

Hearing this, the noble ladies and young ladies on the ship boiled instantly, ran to the railing without hesitation, confirmed that it was Karl's Holy Light, and immediately let out ear-piercing screams.

"Ah ah ah ah! It's really Vice Admiral Karl ah ah ah!"

The male companions who were ruthlessly abandoned:.......

Issho, leaning against the cabin, twitched his mouth: "It's actually that Navy Hero. No wonder he has such an amazing physique!"

To be honest, Issho really wanted to see this Navy Hero of the new era, and he believed that the Navy Hero thought the same.

Because he was very sure that the Kenbunshoku Haki that just swept over was definitely Karl's.

The Holy Light gradually moved away, and the crazy women on the ship wailed, beating their chests and stamping their feet, missing the opportunity to get close to their male god.

Sending the somewhat resentful Ordesia back to Mary Geoise, Karl headed straight for the Sky Island. The Holy Light was naturally handed over to Nelson, and he also gave them a vacation by the way. After all, they wouldn't have time to rest in a few days.

Sky Island, New Amazon Lily (formerly Upper Yard).

"Darling!!!"

Hancock ran wildly all the way, jumped up when she was about to get close to Karl, and rushed toward Karl like a cannonball. Fortunately, Hancock had super-strong shock absorption, otherwise Karl would have been rammed to death by her.

"Darling, I came immediately after receiving your news. By the way, our new home has been built almost completely. Let's go, I'll take you to see it!" After speaking, Hancock pulled Karl's hand and jumped toward Noland.

Passing through the dense forest, a familiar city came into view. The gold building materials reflected dazzling golden light under the sunlight, which was quite dazzling.

Different from the old Amazon Lily, some areas were all replaced with island clouds, white and soft. The whole city looked like a golden city hidden in the clouds.

Among them, there were many Kuja women working hard, adding bricks and tiles to their new home.

"It's about the same as before, haha, it's just a bit dazzling."

Hancock frowned and quickly said: "Then I'll tell them to tear down all the gold!"

"No need for such trouble. After a long time, it won't be so dazzling. Why bother tossing back and forth?"

"Mm, I'll listen to you."

Karl smiled helplessly, hugging Hancock and walking on the tree-lined path: "Did you encounter any problems after moving up? Like a shortage of supplies?"

"Not really. There is no shortage of food and water here. The only thing missing is daily necessities, but the tribesmen who came in the later batches bought a lot of daily necessities, enough for us to use until next year."

"And there are people on Angel Island preparing daily necessities for us to trade for gold. Mm... in short, it's much better than the original place."

"The most important thing is that if we are missing anything, we can just send people down to buy it. Anyway, with balloon octopuses and wind-dial shells, going up and down is very convenient."

Karl smiled slightly, gently stroking Hancock's hair: "You have really grown up a lot~ thinking back to when we first met, I thought you were a barbaric and unreasonable young lady, and now you are..."

Hancock also seemed to remember what happened when she first met Karl a few years ago. Her face suddenly turned red, and she shook Karl's arm, acting like a spoiled child: "Darling~ didn't we agree not to mention it again?"

"Alright, alright, haha, I won't say it, I won't say it. That, baby, a few days ago I bought you a lot of beautiful clothes in the world's largest entertainment city. Why don't you try them on tonight?"

Hancock understood instantly, looking at Karl with a spring-filled face, breathing like an orchid in his ear.

"How beautiful are they? I want to try them on now..."
