Chapter 98

Through the efforts of the women, by evening, they had finally cleared all the corpses on Thriller Bark.

Afterwards, following Lin Yu’s suggestion and under Kalifa’s leadership, they began to brainstorm and offer their own suggestions for how to renovate this massive island-ship.

After all, this would be the place where they would live for a long time, so they naturally hoped to design it well.

Moreover, the fact that they wouldn't have to live on a ship but on an island from now on made them feel very excited.

No matter how good life on a ship was, it naturally couldn't compare to the comfort of living on an island.

A few days later, late at night.

Marine Headquarters, Marineford.

Inside the Marine intelligence office.

Brrr-brrr~ Brrr-brrr~

Click!

Brannew, the 'Meeting King' who was working overtime processing intelligence, frowned at the Den Den Mushi beside him and picked it up.

"Hello, this is Brannew."

"It’s me, Hina."

Inside Lin Yu’s bedroom.

Hina, holding a Den Den Mushi with the Marine insignia, lay in Lin Yu’s arms and let out a weary yawn.

If Lin Yu hadn't asked her to notify Sengoku about Moria, she would have wanted to fall asleep just like Reiju.

Ever since her last conversation with Fleet Admiral Sengoku, Hina had kept this Den Den Mushi that could contact the Marines.

After several days of sailing, Lin Yu’s Thriller Bark had already left the Florian Triangle and arrived in the waters near the nearest Marine base, making it convenient for Hina to use the base’s signal to notify Fleet Admiral Sengoku.

On the other end of the line, Brannew, hearing it was Hina, immediately perked up and asked in a deep voice:

"Hina, do you have something to report?"

As an intelligence officer, Brannew was the only person in the Marines who knew about the deal between Fleet Admiral Sengoku and the criminal Lin Yu.

Moreover, Sengoku had instructed him that Hina was currently on an undercover mission by Lin Yu’s side, so calls would occasionally come to his Den Den Mushi, and he must pay close attention.

Hina shifted to a more comfortable position in Lin Yu’s arms and said:

"Lin Yu just killed one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Gecko Moria. Tell Fleet Admiral Sengoku about this."

"Ask him to help cover it up so others don't find out."

"Because Lin Yu plans to use Moria’s status as a Warlord to join the war against Whitebeard."

"That’s all."

After speaking, Hina hung up the phone directly.

"Haa~ Are you satisfied now?"

Hina placed the Den Den Mushi on the nightstand and yawned.

Hina didn't know, nor did she want to know, why Lin Yu wanted to use Moria’s identity to participate in the Summit War.

Now, feeling exceptionally exhausted, she just wanted to have a good sleep.

"Of course I’m satisfied; even just now, I was very satisfied." Lin Yu smiled upon hearing this.

"Hina is tired, Hina is going to sleep."

Hearing Lin Yu’s double entendre, Hina glared at him and fell asleep immediately.

Lin Yu chuckled, kissed Hina and Reiju on the face, and got out of bed.

Before the Summit War, the Marines would send people to invite all the Warlords to attend; by then, the fact that Lin Yu had killed Gecko Moria would certainly not be hidden.

Since that was the case, he might as well tell Sengoku directly and let him help cover it up.

As for whether Sengoku would agree, Lin Yu didn't care.

Because he was only using this to paralyze Sengoku, making him truly believe that he was planning to use Moria’s identity to participate in the Summit War, which would make it easier for him to act in the shadows.

Coming to the balcony outside the bedroom, Lin Yu leaned against the railing to admire Thriller Bark under the moonlight, thinking about what to do next.

Suddenly, he saw several sneaky figures appearing in the woods in the distance.

"There are still others hiding on this island?"

Lin Yu frowned, transformed into a bolt of lightning, and rushed over.

Zap!

The lightning landed among the figures, exploded violently, and instantly struck the sneaky figures.

Seeing the figures knocked unconscious by the electric shock at his feet, Lin Yu suddenly realized.

"So it was Lola..."

"I completely forgot that this person existed on this ship."

Inside the Marine Headquarters intelligence office.

'One of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Gecko Moria, has actually been killed by Lin Yu...'

Brannew held the receiver, thinking in shock.

Although Brannew knew that Lin Yu had committed many heinous crimes and also knew that he possessed the strength of a great swordsman capable of killing ordinary CP0 members in seconds.

But this time, the one who died was one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Gecko Moria.

He was a powerful figure who could go head-to-head with the Four Emperor Kaido over a decade ago.

This was already a world-famous great pirate on the Grand Line!

And yet, Lin Yu killed him just like that...

Putting down the receiver, Brannew frowned, wondering whether he should report this to Fleet Admiral Sengoku now.

It was late at night, and Fleet Admiral Sengoku had clearly already rested; disturbing him now would likely lead to a scolding.

However, the death of one of the Warlords, Gecko Moria, was a major event that had to be reported as soon as possible.

"Forget it, at most I’ll just get scolded."

Thinking this, Brannew pushed open the door and ran toward Sengoku’s lounge.

Inside the Fleet Admiral’s office.

"Garp, I’ve already eaten three hundred and fifteen rice crackers."

Buddha Sengoku’s belly was round, and he lay in the Fleet Admiral’s chair, panting.

Normally he would have been asleep by now, but Garp, that old rascal, had come to compete with him in eating rice crackers, claiming he had set a new record.

As the record holder, Sengoku naturally didn't believe it.

So the two of them had been eating from evening until late at night.

"Sengoku, I’m at three hundred and sixteen, hehehe."

Garp glanced at Sengoku, chuckled, and then lay back and fell asleep, blowing a large snot bubble.

His rice cracker eating contests with Sengoku usually lasted several days; staying up late to eat them was common practice, and this was just the beginning. To fight a war of attrition, he had to seize the time to rest.

"Tch!"

Sengoku glared at Garp unhappily and stuffed another rice cracker into his mouth.

"Three hundred and sixteen!"

Knock, knock, knock!!!

Hearing the knocking, Sengoku turned to look at the sleeping Garp, got up, and walked out the door.

Arriving in the corridor outside the Fleet Admiral’s office, Sengoku, feeling refreshed by the sea breeze, looked at Brannew and asked:

"What is it?"

Brannew wiped the sweat from his forehead, took a few deep breaths, and said: "Fleet Admiral Sengoku, Hina just sent word that Lin Yu has killed one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Gecko Moria."

"What did you say!"

"Moria was killed by Lin Yu?"

Sengoku was shocked upon hearing this.

The Marines were currently mobilizing forces from all over the world to deal with Whitebeard, and now Lin Yu had killed Moria, one of the Marine’s helpers, at such a critical moment; wasn't this just causing trouble for him!

"Are you sure Moria is dead?" Sengoku asked Brannew seriously.

The death of one of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Gecko Moria, was no small matter and had to be confirmed clearly.

"I’ve already gone to confirm with the Marine soldiers whose shadows were stolen by Moria; their shadows have indeed returned."
