Chapter 362

Seemingly thinking of something bad, Morgan's face suddenly became very gloomy.

But the other marines were different. They weren't stupid and could vaguely guess something. After all, there had been quite a few reports submitted accusing Colonel Morgan. Could it be that today they were going to sanction this arrogant guy?

Coby, who had always longed to become a righteous marine, opened his mouth wide, a look of disbelief in his eyes. Navy Hero? How could a Navy Hero come to a place like this?

Luffy, on the other hand, scratched his head. Navy Hero? What kind of thing is that? Never heard of it!

Zoro, who had finally gotten his swords, felt his body shake. Although he didn't hear clearly what others were saying, this familiar flying slash immediately made him recall the first time he saw Karl.

It couldn't be wrong, it was him!

"Colonel Morgan, base commander of the 153rd Branch Navy Base, you are accused of corruption, abuse of power, and oppressing civilians.... The evidence is conclusive. Please come with us!"

The person speaking was Smoker. In this regard, he, the former Navy Anti-Corruption Bureau official, was more professional. Karl was just watching the show on the side.

Morgan said excitedly: "Nonsense, I am the base commander of the 153rd Branch, I have this right."

Smoker just wanted to say something, but Karl patted his shoulder, the subtext being, it's my turn now.

"Whether you have the right is not for you to decide, but for Navy Headquarters to decide. However... for a small branch Colonel to dare to build a statue for himself is really quite exaggerated. I, a Navy Hero, don't even have one!"

"Not bad. Actually, we arrived long ago and have been observing your every move. Based on my experience as the former head of the Navy Anti-Corruption Bureau... hehe, get ready to go to Impel Down!"

Morgan waved his hand: "What right do you have to send me to Impel Down? I am the highest commander of this place. Even if your rank is higher than mine, you have no right to arrest me!"

"Go, kill them!"

Unfortunately, none of the marine soldiers dared to move.

Nonsense, is a Navy Hero who can kill vicious criminals with a bounty of nearly 5 billion Berries someone you can kill just because you want to? Besides, who the hell are you! Don't come near me, I'm afraid of being misunderstood by the Navy Hero!

"This guy is truly hopeless."

Smoker snorted coldly and shouted loudly: "All marine soldiers, listen to the order: immediately arrest the corrupt marine Morgan, otherwise you will all be treated as accomplices!"

Once these words were out, the marine soldiers present turned their gun barrels one after another, aiming at Morgan without a hint of hesitation.

"Alright, you bunch of traitors, traitors! I will execute you all!!!"

After speaking, Colonel Morgan raised the giant axe in his right hand high and hacked toward the marines in front of him. For a moment, no marine soldier dared to fire.

Karl raised his right hand in a Kizaru-like manner, and dazzling golden light instantly gathered at Karl's fingertips. Only a beep was heard.

The Holy Light bullet hit Morgan's hand axe accurately. The next second, Morgan's eyes widened, and he shook his right hand desperately.

"So hot! So hot! It hurts me to death!"

Looking again, Morgan's hand axe had already turned bright red, and it soon turned into a puddle of molten iron, with the smell of roasted meat gradually wafting through the air.

Smoker, standing beside Karl, widened his eyes and looked at Karl in disbelief: "You, when did your Holy Light become able to hurt people? This, isn't this like Admiral Kizaru..."

Karl waved his hand calmly: "Nothing, just accidentally awakened my ability."

Smoker:...... You're awesome!

Sigh~ This guy has become stronger again! Although he hadn't developed the Smoke-Smoke Fruit much less over the years, he hadn't even touched the threshold of awakening.

It's okay, it's okay. As strong as Akainu, Aokiji, and Kizaru are, haven't they also not awakened their fruit abilities? Logia types are like this, Smoker thought to himself, and suddenly felt much better.

"Is, is this the strength of a Navy Hero? Actually solved Colonel Morgan so easily?"

"Nonsense, Vice Admiral Karl is a man who has records of fighting every Four Emperor in the New World!"

Smoker coughed lightly and pointed to Morgan, who was wailing on the ground: "What are you all standing there for? Tie him up!"

"Yes! Sir!"

Only then did Karl turn his gaze to Zoro on the side: "You disappointed me too much, Zoro."

Zoro didn't know how to answer and could only look at Karl in silence.

"Hey, who are you!"

Luffy seemed to have completely forgotten Karl. Hmm, very reasonable. After all, they had only met once, many years ago. With Luffy's personality, it would be a miracle if he remembered him.

"Monkey D. Luffy, right? It's really surprising. The grandson of a dignified Navy Hero would actually choose to be a pirate. What's wrong with this world?"

"Ah? You know my grandpa? Wait... I remember now, you are that Navy auntie who can turn people into children... hmm, what was your name again?"

Karl's mouth turned up slightly: "You'll know later."

"As for you few... Smoker, do these few have bounties on their heads?"

Smoker looked at Luffy deeply and shook his head affirmatively: "No, this guy looks like a greenhorn who just set sail. How could he have a bounty? However..."

"Mr. Karl, although Mr. Luffy is a pirate, he is not a bad person. Mr. Zoro is the same, he hasn't done anything bad!"

Karl looked down at the pink-haired short kid, a double agent who was in the Cao camp but his heart was in Han, looking at him was disgusting.

"Are you a pirate too? Pink-haired brat?"

Coby was suddenly stunned, then stammered and didn't know what to say, cold sweat constantly breaking out on his head.

Was he a pirate? Indeed, he was. Before, he had been a pirate handyman under Alvida. Although it wasn't voluntary, the Navy didn't have that much time to figure out whether he was voluntary or not.

And he, a guy with a pirate background, how could he become a righteous marine?

"Hey, he's not a pirate. Look at him, where does he look like a pirate? He's timid and loves to cry..." Luffy kept listing Coby's shortcomings.

Coby wasn't angry, but instead looked at Luffy with emotion, because he knew that this was Mr. Luffy actively drawing a line with him. In this way, his identity would be clean.

Smoker snorted coldly: "Do you think I can't see what kind of tricks you're playing? This trick of drawing a line is too childish, isn't it?"
