Chapter 56: Makino's Method

~6 min read 1,015 words

Pfft!

Hearing this while drinking tea, Zhanguo instantly spat out his mouthful, staring at Brannew in shock and exclaiming in astonishment:

"You're saying Lin Yu has killed another king?"

Brannew took a deep breath, looked at Zhanguo, and said:

"The Wang Gong of the Goa Kingdom suffered a secret intrusion; all guards and servants were knocked unconscious by the attackers, and when the new King of the Goa Kingdom was found, he had already lost all signs of life."

"Prior to this, the village chief of Windmill Village reported to the Navy that the criminal Lin Yu appeared in Windmill Village and abducted the wine-selling girl from there."

"From this, we infer that the person who killed the new King of the Goa Kingdom is none other than the criminal Lin Yu."

"Hmm, Windmill Village, under Vice Admiral Garp's protection, is very close to the capital of the Goa Kingdom."

At the very end, Brannew added a remark.

That bastard actually killed another king; is he trying to oppose the World Government outright!

Hearing this, Zhanguo's face turned iron-green.

As an old friend of Garp, he naturally knew the details about Windmill Village.

He just hadn't expected that Garp, who only yesterday wanted to return, would find that today the other party had rushed to Windmill Village to snatch a Miss and slaughter a king.

And now, with another king of a World Government member nation dead, the Five Elders would likely be calling him again shortly.

Subsequently, Zhanguo turned his head to look at Brannew.

"Has that bastard Garp departed yet?"

"Vice Admiral Garp has just departed."

"Go and convey this news to him."

"Yes, Fleet Admiral Zhanguo."

Brannew saluted and hurriedly ran out the door.

Buru buru~ Buru buru~

Just as Brannew left, the Den Den Mushi in the Fleet Admiral's office immediately rang.

The corner of Zhanguo's mouth twitched; knowing this was a call from the Five Elders, he extremely reluctantly picked up the receiver.

"Hello! Zhanguo."

"Now that bastard has run to the East Blue and killed another king; what exactly are you Navy doing..."

The moment Zhanguo lifted the receiver, the furious roar of the Five Elders erupted from it.

Under the pursuit of the World Government and the Navy, not only had they failed to discover any trace of Lin Yu, but the other party had actually managed to sneak into the East Blue and slaughter a king.

The repeated occurrence of such incidents had already caused some dissatisfaction among the kings of other nations toward the World Government.

This also made the Five Elders extremely furious.

Only after the Five Elders finished scolding did Zhanguo say a sentence:

"Garp is now heading to the East Blue; as long as we can find that bastard, we will definitely be able to capture him."

Hearing that Garp was personally taking action, the Five Elders fell silent for a moment, then said:

"I will have the CP0 organization in the East Blue closely monitor that bastard's whereabouts and cooperate with Garp's capture operation."

After speaking, the Five Elders hung up the phone directly.

The Five Elders naturally knew Garp's strength very well; with him taking action, the matter should be a certainty.

Of course, this premise relied on finding Lin Yu's trace.

Putting aside the matter of the Den Den Mushi, Zhanguo walked to the window and muttered to himself.

"Garp, you had better quickly capture Lin Yu and that big grandson of yours and bring them to justice, otherwise I won't be able to suppress the news about that big grandson of yours any longer."

Garp would personally go to the East Blue to capture Lin Yu.

Firstly, he was worried about Windmill Village, and secondly, he was repaying the favor Zhanguo did by suppressing the news about Lu Fei for him.

Although Garp deeply abhorred and felt immense sorrow over the fact that Ace and Lu Fei had gone to sea to become pirates.

But more than ten years of familial affection was not so easily cast aside.

On the other side.

On Garp's dog-head ship.

"What did you say?"

"Windmill Village was attacked?"

"Makino was abducted?"

Garp shouted furiously into the Den Den Mushi in his hand.

Damn it, yesterday upon hearing news of Lin Yu in the East Blue, he had felt something was terribly wrong and prepared to return to Windmill Village to check.

As a result, that bastard Lin Yu acted so quickly that he had already abducted Makino right now.

As for the matter of the King of the Goa Kingdom being slaughtered, Garp didn't care about it in the least.

In his view, it would be best if all that trash died.

"Yes, Vice Admiral Garp, this is news we just received."

From the Den Den Mushi's receiver, Brannew's voice emerged, stating it with absolute certainty.

Click!

Garp hung up the Den Den Mushi in one motion, turned around, and roared:

"Issue orders: change course, cross the Calm Belt, and head directly to the East Blue!"

"This old man must first go and capture that bastard Lin Yu and bring him to justice."

Garp had originally intended to go to Alabasta to capture Lu Fei on the way, but upon hearing the news of Lin Yu appearing in Windmill Village, he immediately could not sit still, preparing to directly utilize the Navy's newly developed latest technology to cross the Calm Belt and head to the East Blue.

"Yes." Cap's adjutant saluted and hurriedly conveyed the order.

The East Sea.

The Divine Slave.

Reiju saw Nojiko drinking in the ship's dining hall and said with a frown:

"You clearly stirred up the fire, so why should we be the ones to put it out?"

Just after Nojiko had provoked Lin Yu, she had jumped into the sea to hide, leaving the two of them to bear the brunt.

As a result, they had just finished bathing and now had to do it all over again.

"Exactly, Nojiko, this isn't very honorable of you."

Makino, who was currently stir-frying vegetables, chimed in from the side.
