Chapter 411 Arrival at Windmill Village
Luffy's bounty soon spread throughout the world through the World Economic News Agency. The bounty amount was as high as 3 billion berries, and was set personally by the Navy Marshal Ziger.
No one knows yet, but the bounty is not just for Straw Hat Boy Luffy, but also for the Joy Boy in his body.
Before this, Luffy still left people with the impression of being a so-called pirate supernova. After Sabaody Island, he even disappeared for almost two years. If it weren't for the sudden issuance of such a bounty order, almost no one would know him.
This bounty order can be said to have once again pushed Luffy into the world's spotlight.
The description of his crimes is that, as the grandson of Vice Admiral Garp, he colluded with the revolutionary army and launched a secret operation in the East China Sea to wreak havoc on the world. Vice Admiral Garp, who happened to be on vacation in the East China Sea, discovered their whereabouts and engaged in a fierce battle with them.
In this battle, Vice Admiral Garp did not waver just because Luffy was his grandson. He led the few navy soldiers to fight until the last moment, and finally died of exhaustion.
Vice Admiral Garp, who has served in the army for decades, is a well-deserved naval hero!
At the same time as the bounty order was issued, the Navy Headquarters had already mobilized a fleet whose specifications even exceeded those of the Demon Slayer Order. It has now left the Grand Line and its primary target is the East China Sea, one of the Four Seas.
East China Sea,
The island where Windmill Village is located has been surrounded by many headquarters warships. The entire sea area is filled with a solemn and murderous atmosphere, and the sense of oppression is extremely strong.
A warship of the largest size slowly approached the shore, and a large number of headquarters soldiers wearing navy cloaks came out one after another, and then separated into two teams neatly, forming a pedestrian passage.
When the village chief, Sbula, and a group of villagers from Windmill Village heard the news and saw this scene, they couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
The shore was extremely quiet at this time, until two figures, a man and a woman, slowly walked down from the boat.
The navy officers and soldiers on the shore immediately saluted. Sbulla rubbed his eyes vigorously. When he saw the face of the man in front of him, his pupils shrank and he said in a trembling voice,
"That, that's Marshal Tianlong! Unbelievable! He actually came in person!!"
The others were also stunned, because they could be said to have seen a real person who existed in the legend.
In the crowd, Makino stared with eyes wide open and muttered,
"Is that Marshal Tianlong? He looks so young. How can he be with..."
At this point, Makino suddenly reacted, hurriedly covered his mouth, lowered his head and dared not utter another word.
But no one noticed Machino at this time, let alone her. Everyone's eyes were on Jiger, and even ignored the beautiful general with a cold face next to Jiger. Judging from the epaulettes on her navy cloak, she was actually a naval admiral!
As we all know, there is only one female admiral among the admirals of the navy, and that is Nightingale Lucia!
Lucia always lagged behind Jig by one body length, following him closely. This posture made it difficult for people to notice her identity as a general, and they would only think that she was a diligent guard.
Jiger walked to the front of both teams. He turned his head to look at the villagers of Windmill Village, then slowly walked towards them until he came in front of the Windmill Village Chief, Sbula.
At such a close distance, Sbulla felt more deeply the terrifying mountain-like oppression from Ziger.
The dignity of a royal family and the majesty of a naval marshal were perfectly interpreted in Giger.
Jiger looked down at Sbra and said calmly,
"You are the mayor of Windmill Village, Sebra, right?"
Sbula, who was already sweating profusely, showed a look of surprise on his face and said,
"Yes Marshal Tianlong, I am Sbula!"
Jiger nodded slightly and continued,
"Okay, take me to where Vice Admiral Garp fought."
Hearing Garp's name, the villagers of Windmill Village all showed an unconcealable sadness on their faces. Jiger noticed the change in everyone's expression, he sighed and said softly,
"I may have scared you just now, don't be afraid, I just came here to confirm one thing."
A young man bravely asked,
"Tian, Marshal Tianlong, where is the body of Vice Admiral Garp now? We want to hold a funeral for him..."
Jiger looked at the young man and said,
"I appreciate your kindness on behalf of Vice Admiral Garp, but he has been buried in the Marine Headquarters. This was also agreed by his closest friends. I believe that for Vice Admiral Garp himself, the Marine Headquarters is his best destination."
Upon hearing this, the villagers all lowered their heads, and sobbing sounds were heard from time to time.
Jiger glanced at Makino who was sobbing in the crowd, then looked away and said to Sbulala,
"Let's go."
.......
Under the leadership of Sbula, Zig and a group of naval soldiers came to the place where Garp died.
Looking around, the surroundings had been destroyed beyond recognition. The ground was full of deep gullies, and most of the forest in the distance had collapsed, which showed how fierce the battle was at that time.
Jiger slowly walked to a relatively intact piece of ground. With a little force on his feet, he could feel a slight soft texture. He lowered his eyes and said lightly,
"It really is him. Has he been able to do this?"
Others cannot sense it, but he can clearly sense the white mist-like substance that permeates the surroundings, which is the so-called "Nika aura".
As his mind moved, a layer of faint black light enveloped Jiger's body, and his whole body exuded an inexplicable suction force, sucking in all the Nika aura that permeated the space.
When Nika's aura completely disappeared, the ground under Jiger's feet hardened again and returned to its original texture.
During the twenty-two years that Jiger was in sleep, he was severely troubled by the Nika aura in his body, and it took him a lot of effort to erase it.
But now, this level of Nika aura alone can no longer pose the slightest threat to it.
Jiger slowly raised his right hand, and a dark vortex appeared in his palm, from which a dazzling white light rose.
This ball of light seemed to have life, jumping restlessly, trying to break free from the pull of darkness.
Jiger stared directly at the ball of light, his golden pupils turned dark, like two slowly rotating black holes.
Then, he squeezed hard, and the ball of light exploded instantly, turning into wisps of rising black gas until it completely dissipated.
With his hands hanging down at his waist, Jiger narrowed his eyes and whispered,
"Next time we meet, should I call you Luffy or Joyboy?"
