Chapter 330

After playing in New Amazon Lily for a few days, Karl had to return to the Navy Headquarters.

This also meant that for the next period of time, he would be extremely busy. Busy in the sense of having to rush around everywhere. Just kidding, how much time could killing pirates take him!

It was mainly about rushing around, okay?

Sengoku slapped a stack of bounty posters in front of Karl and asked with a smile: "Here, these are your next targets. Mainly the Four Seas, uh... other sea areas besides the East Blue. These pirates don't count as powerful. You have no problem, right?"

Karl took a deep breath and asked sincerely: "Can I really not go alone? Driving a warship is really too slow!"

Sengoku shook his head: "No. Do you think your task is really to kill pirates? And pirates with bounties not exceeding 100 million?"

"But..."

"Don't say anymore. Your task is to make pirates afraid when they see you, to make the public feel safe when they see you, and to make the title of Navy Hero live up to its name!"

Karl sighed helplessly and had to accept it.

Crescent Moon Bay, the Holy Light slowly sailed away from the port, heading toward the West Blue.

3 months later, the West Blue was cleared. Karl had killed 143 pirates and captured 1,704 pirates, with fruitful results.

The title of Navy Hero Karl also resounded throughout the West Blue. The pirates who were lucky enough to escape trembled, afraid when they heard Karl's name, and didn't dare to come out and make trouble at all.

They were just small pirates in the West Blue; where had they seen the power from the New World?

Karl could also be considered to have experienced the pleasure of a max-level character slaughtering a novice village. No wonder Garp ran to the East Blue whenever he had time! It was indeed cool!

It's just that this was just the beginning. Next, there were the South Blue and North Blue. As for the East Blue, he only needed to solve one pirate group, the Krieg Pirates, but Karl was really too lazy to go. He directly called Smoker and let him go out to get some air, instead of squatting in Loguetown all the time.

Another three months, the time had come to Marine Calendar 1518. The South Blue was cleared. Kid didn't encounter him; he probably ran away in advance. Count him lucky.

Another three months passed. Karl's hometown—the North Blue—was cleared. All pirates had been put on transport ships and were about to be sent to Impel Down.

After this trip, the task Karl called the "Hero's Journey" was finally completed.

For nearly 10 months, the name of Navy Hero Karl had never been off the newspaper. Even Karl felt he was a bit annoying.

Fortunately, there was no Wang Laoer in this world, otherwise how many big melons would have exploded?

North Blue, 108th Branch.

"Boss Charles, thanks for your help during this time. Otherwise, with just my few people, those scumbags would really be hard to find."

Major General Charles, whose hair had long been bald, smiled with a glowing face: "Hahahaha, it should be, it should be. You are the soldier I brought out myself. What's wrong with helping a little? Besides, it would be distant! Come, come, come, cheers!"

Ping~

Karl drank the red wine in his glass in one gulp and said with a smile: "By the way, Boss Charles, in the few years I've been away, you haven't had any trouble here, right?"

Karl suddenly remembered that among the future Supernovas, quite a few seemed to come from the North Blue. Law, Hawkins, Drake shouldn't count; the Navy high-level knew a little about his situation.

Charles was stunned, then shook his head: "Not really. Not long ago, there were a few pirate groups that were in the limelight, but they disappeared without a trace a week before you came to the North Blue."

"Oh? Which ones?"

"One is the Heart Pirates, and one is the Hawkins Pirates."

"By the way, the captain of the Hawkins Pirates is a Devil Fruit user who can divine, seek good fortune and avoid evil. He ran the earliest."

Karl shook his head helplessly. It didn't matter. He would naturally make a move when the time came.

Marineford.

"Back? How do you feel?"

Karl curled his lips: "A bit boring, just some small characters who don't even dare to land on the Grand Line."

Sengoku laughed and patted Karl on the shoulder: "But the effect is very good. Now your influence is even greater than mine, the Fleet Admiral!"

"Really? Then can I act freely in the future?"

"No."

"Tch!"

"Don't be idle since you're back this time. It just so happens there's something that needs you to handle."

Karl raised an eyebrow: "Hmm? The Four Emperors have made a move?"

"Not really. It's Alabasta. Not long ago, the Dance Powder incident was exposed, leading to public indignation and even a rebellion."

"Alabasta... rebellion? That doesn't seem to be under our Navy's jurisdiction, right?"

Sengoku looked at Karl meaningfully and said: "The Navy indeed does not participate in the internal affairs of the World Government's member countries, but this is the World Government's request, specifically naming you. Do you know why?"

"Why?"

Sengoku snorted contemptuously: "Isn't it the Mary Geoise attack incident last year? The World Nobles lost three families, and there were heavy casualties, so they intend to invite the Nefertari family to move into Mary Geoise and become a member of the World Nobles."

"The Nefertari family, isn't that the royal family of Alabasta? How could they..." A thunderbolt flashed in Karl's mind, and dead memories began to attack his brain. He remembered.

When he watched the anime, he liked the character Vivi very much, so he specifically checked her background. The Nefertari family behind her seemed to be one of the twenty kings who founded the World Government.

"800 years ago, after the kings of 20 countries jointly founded the World Government, they moved to the Holy Land Mary Geoise one after another, except for the Nefertari family at that time, who insisted on staying in Alabasta to rule their own kingdom."

"In other words, they were originally descendants of World Nobles. Now you should understand why the World Government wants to intervene in this matter, right?"

Karl nodded: "Understood, but... if I remember correctly, Crocodile, one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, seems to be stationed in Alabasta, right? Could this be his doing?"

"I said it, but the World Government's meaning here is not to move Crocodile for now. The main task is to let the Nefertari family reconsider moving into Mary Geoise."

Sengoku didn't trust the Seven Warlords of the Sea at all and naturally suspected Crocodile. However, the World Government seemed to have other meanings, as if they were very happy to see a rebellion in Alabasta.

Karl scratched his head: "Then what's the use of me going? I don't know how to negotiate. Shouldn't the World Government send people to talk about this?"

"That would seem too deliberate, so they found us. In short, you go find Cobra and talk about moving into Mary Geoise first. As for investigating Crocodile... do your best!"

"Okay! Then I'll leave immediately!"
