Peng En, a lucky man—at least, that was what most people thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Before the Summit War, he was just an unremarkable Marine Captain, but ever since he gained the appreciation of Admiral Karl during the war, his luck seemed to have taken a turn for the better.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Relying on his outstanding performance, he was promoted directly to Rear Admiral of the Headquarters, and he even accidentally stumbled upon the Devil Fruit of the legendary pirate Golden Lion—the Float-Float Fruit—making him a hot commodity within the Marines.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Everyone said he was lucky, but he didn't think so; in fact, he believed all of this was a gift from Admiral Karl.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>As everyone knew, a Devil Fruit only reappears after the ability user dies, and Golden Lion Shiki had died at the hands of Admiral Karl. The fact that he could find the Float-Float Fruit at the Marine Headquarters fruit stall was definitely not just a matter of luck.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Because the last person to find a Devil Fruit at the Marine Headquarters fruit stall was none other than Admiral Karl.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"The Straw Hat Pirates, they should be the last one... *Sigh*~ I suppose this isn't bad either.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Peng En opened the nautical chart and, based on the Straw Hat Pirates' route, found their next stop: Ditrier Island, an unremarkable little island in the New World with a population of no more than 10,000.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Peng En frowned and rubbed his chin.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Marine Headquarters, Fleet Admiral's office.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Brrr-brrr-brrr~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Seeing that it was a call from Vice Admiral Peng En, Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Kuzan answered immediately.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Vice Admiral Peng En, how is the situation? Have you confirmed the movements of the Straw Hat crew?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Reporting to Fleet Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Kuzan, it has been confirmed. The next stop for the Straw Hat Pirates will be Ditrier Island. We expect a two-day voyage, so we have enough time to prepare.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Ditrier Island...\" Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Kuzan mused, then looked at the map in front of him. After a moment, he found the island's location—a very ordinary island that used to be Whitebeard's territory, only to be snatched away by Big Mom after Whitebeard's death.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Vice Admiral Peng En, take your troops to Ditrier Island immediately. Arrange for the emergency evacuation of the civilians. Once the evacuation is complete, return to Marine Headquarters immediately, lead Admiral Karl and the others to Ditrier Island to make preparations, and give the Straw Hat crew a surprise.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Yes, Fleet Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Kuzan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Peng En agreed without hesitation. Even though he had just been pulling islands for Admiral Akainu for over ten days, he had no complaints, because this move was exactly what he wanted.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>As a righteous Marine, he did not wish to see innocent civilians caught in the crossfire of war.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>One day later, Sky Island, Amazon Lily.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"May the Holy Light bless you all!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>A milky-white holy light bloomed, and the power to soothe fatigue and heal pain flowed into the bodies of every resident of Amazon Lily present.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Thank you, Lord Karl!!!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Karl waved his hand: \"No need to thank me. Regardless, I am the Regent of Amazon Lily, so this is what I should do. As long as I am alive, everyone on Amazon Lily will be free from pain forever. However, I will have to trouble you all with what comes next.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The female warriors below said excitedly: \"Don't worry, Lord Karl!!! We will definitely finish building the Princess's palace as soon as possible!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Karl smiled slightly, waved his hand, and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"I'm back!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>No one responded. Ain was chatting heatedly with Hancock and ignored Karl's existence entirely. Karl shook his head helplessly, but then a smile appeared on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Now, the relationship between Ain and Hancock was much better than before; the hard work of this period had not been in vain.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Because Ain was also pregnant, both of them were now expectant mothers, and they suddenly had a common language.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Ahem!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Ahem, ahem!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Dear, you're back! Thank you for your hard work.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Karl waved his hand, sat down next to Hancock, and asked: \"How is it? Ain, are you feeling better now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ain blinked her blue eyes and nodded slightly: \"Much better. By the way, I want to eat Water Water Meat. Could you make a trip to Water 7 and bring some back for me?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Karl nodded and looked at Hancock beside him: \"What about you? Is there anything you want to eat?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Hancock pouted and thought for a moment: \"Uh... I want to eat Water Water Meat too, so you won't have to make extra trips.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Karl grinned: \"Making extra trips is fine. With my speed, besides Kizaru, who else would dare say they are faster than me? You are both important people now; satisfying you is my number one priority. No matter who comes, it doesn't matter! I said so!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Brrr-brrr-brrr~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>The Den Den Mushi rang. Karl's expression changed—surely the slap in the face wouldn't come this quickly, would it?\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Hello, Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Kuzan, you'd better have a good reason!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"I do indeed have a reason. You've been on break for almost a month; it's time to get to work!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"What kind of work? Didn't we agree to wait until... Are you preparing to make a move on the Straw Hat crew?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Karl was shocked. Preparing to move against Luffy so soon? He had only been Pirate King for a few days!\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Yes. The situation is turbulent now, and many islands have been engulfed in the flames of war. How many people will be left with nowhere to go by then?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"I don't want to see them become pirates. Therefore, the Pirate King, the number one pirate, must disappear as soon as possible. The era of pirates must come to an end, and I want to personally usher in the era of adventurers!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"But isn't the President of the Adventurer's Guild Sakazuki?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Ahem, that's not important. What's important is that the Marines must do their utmost to guide those who have been driven to desperation by force majeure onto the path of adventurers, rather than becoming pirates!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Admiral Kuzan had thought it through clearly. The Marines would not participate in politics, but that didn't mean they couldn't participate at all. At the very least, the Adventurer's Guild had already provided an answer to the refugee problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>By then, whether the Revolutionary Army succeeded in overthrowing the World Government or the World Government wiped out the Revolutionary Army, he would be able to handle it calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Fine, I understand. Time and place?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Tomorrow at ten in the morning, Ditrier Island. The coordinates are...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>After hanging up, Karl smiled awkwardly at Ain and Hancock, rubbed his hands, and said: \"Well, I have to go handle something tomorrow, but don't worry, it will be over soon, and I'll be back shortly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Seeing Karl Move Move Like this, the two women smiled knowingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Hancock was the first to laugh: \"Dear, go ahead! We aren't children; we can take care of ourselves, right, Sister Ain?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Ain nodded, a look of worry on her face: \"Karl, this time, are you going to capture the Straw Hat Pirates?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Karl was silent for a long moment, then nodded: \"Yes. This time, the Straw Hat crew cannot escape. However, their lives are not in danger. If they are sensible, the Marines won't make things difficult for them. Everything depends on how the Straw Hat boy chooses.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>\"Mm, I believe in you. No matter the outcome, I hope you can spare Nami. She is a good child; she just took the wrong path.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>Karl grinned: \"I understand...\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1311,"2026-06-16T20:20:52.563Z","2026-06-17T08:56:49.806Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","54abd11b5928bcdd6735653ac7a47396cc1064aa82df7bcc852375a9f784d4b1","one-piece-i-grow-stronger-by-slacking-off-as-a-n-chapter-362","one-piece-i-grow-stronger-by-slacking-off-as-a-n-chapter-360",397,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fone-piece-i-grow-stronger-by-slacking-off-as-a-n-cover.jpg"]
