Chapter 302 Well, I bear the main responsibility
Coin Island.
The entire spacious and luxurious banquet hall was in a dead silence.
The reporters from more than a hundred news media organizations stared at the smiling former vice admiral on the stage in amazement, and their hands holding the pens began to tremble unconsciously.
It was actually true!
Although they had already made some judgments in their hearts, they were still shocked to get confirmation from the real owner at this moment.
The former navy legend, the world's number one criminal, has a fleet of weapons of mass destruction!
"Then, the incident in the Holy Land of Marijoa..."
The reporter asked in a trembling voice.
"——That was because of my order."
Darren opened his arms and said without concealment:
"The Holy Land of Marijoa was almost razed to the ground, and I must take the main responsibility."
Hiss!
Hearing this, not only the reporters present, but also the countless people who watched this world live broadcast through the video phone bug, also took a breath of cold air at the same time.
He admitted it!
He actually admitted it!
Isn't he afraid of retaliation from the World Government?
Oh, he has been retaliated, and he is still standing here alive and well, so it's okay.
"Then respected Mr. Darren, may I ask if you really had a fierce battle with the five elders of the highest power in the world government?"
Another reporter raised his hand, swallowed his saliva nervously, and asked.
Darren smiled and said:
"The five elders are indeed the most difficult opponents I have ever encountered in my life. I must thank them for their teachings here."
He looked at the camera and smiled:
"Well, especially the teachings of the honorable Jaygolucia Satan."
As soon as these words came out, the reporters looked puzzled.
...
At the same time.
Red Earth Continent, Holy Land Mary Joa.
World Government Meeting Hall.
Snap!
Satan suddenly crushed the teacup in his hand with force, and the hot tea splashed all over the ground, and his gloomy eyes were full of bloodshot.
"This damn kid!"
The other five elders were silent, but their faces were also extremely ugly.
No one knows better than them what the brat meant.
In the battle of Firsek Island, Rogers Darren's combat power showed obvious changes before and after... A more accurate statement is - improvement!
"This is not our problem."
Saint Vorchuli frowned and said in a hoarse voice:
"That brat is a monster among monsters. He has extraordinary training talent and can absorb nutrients from every battle and fight to improve his strength."
The other four Five Elders were silent for a while.
"Well, I agree."
"I agree."
"That's right."
...
Wano Country.
"Oh, hehe! That's right, that's the feeling!"
The members of the Beast Pirates looked at Kaido, who was angry just now, but suddenly laughed happily at this time, all of them were confused.
Kaido suddenly turned back and stared at Quinn who had crawled out of the ruins of the wall, grinning:
"Quinn, did you see it?"
"I knew it... I knew it!!"
"I'm not the only one who encountered the same thing!"
Quinn rolled his eyes unhappily and muttered:
"Of course I know."
I've encountered it too.
...
Navy Headquarters.
"So cool!"
Kuzan stood up and stared at the Den Den Mushi screen with shining eyes.
"It's so scary, he actually challenged the Five Elders in front of the whole world..."
Borsalino stroked his chin stubble and smiled.
"You're really good at bragging, Darren..."
Sakaski raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth.
"Hahahaha! Darren, this stinky boy is still quite domineering!"
Garp chewed on the senbei and laughed out loud.
"——Enough!"
Zhan Guo slammed his fist on the conference table and said angrily:
"You bastards, do you really think I don't exist?"
The other generals were so frightened that they were silent and dared not breathe.
...
It took a full minute for the reporters to digest this shocking news.
They looked at the black-haired young man with a strong awe... and a deeply hidden admiration.
Fighting with the highest power of the world government with one person's strength... This scene makes people's blood boil just thinking about it.
That is the supreme existence that has ruled the world for 800 years!
It is a god that is out of reach of the world!
And now, standing in front of them is a man who fights against the high gods with a human body!
Apart from all positions and camps,
just this courage and spirit is enough to make countless people yearn for it.
After a moment of silence, another reporter raised his hand and asked:
"Mr. Darren, you used to be a legendary star in the navy, a powerful figure admired by countless navy, but now you have become the "number one criminal" with the highest bounty on the sea overnight..."
He looked at Darren cautiously:
"Such a huge change in identity, what do you think now?"
Darren smiled and said:
"Don't be so nervous, I am standing here today to answer your questions."
"As for this change of identity, I don't think it's a big problem."
"In my opinion, a person's identity does not determine his position, but what he does determines his position."
"As for the bounty, it is just a promotion from many colleagues in the Navy Headquarters."
He blinked and teased:
"After all, even if you tie me up and send me to Marinford, the Navy Headquarters probably can't come up with 5 billion Baileys."
As soon as the voice fell, bursts of hearty laughter suddenly rang out in the conference hall.
...
Bang!
Zhan Guo punched the conference table again, panting with red eyes, gritting his teeth and said:
"Darren, that stinky boy! Does he think he is very humorous!?"
He suddenly turned his head and glared at Garp:
"Is it funny? Garp!"
Garp quickly covered his mouth with both hands and shook his head vigorously.
The corner of Zhan Guo's eye twitched, and he was about to take out his anger on the desk again. The staff officer Crane next to him reminded him unhappily:
"Calm down, this desk is not cheap."
Zhan Guo's hand, which was raised in the air, stiffened for a moment, and then he took the teacup, drank it all, and sat down angrily.
Staff officer Crane shook his head helplessly.
If someone else said this, it might just be a joke, but when Darren said it, it was the truth.
Because the truth is cruel.
The Navy Headquarters really can't come up with 5 billion Baileys now.
Many large-scale military deployments, from the encirclement and suppression of Roger's pirate group to the North Sea escort, plus Darren's big fuss at the Navy Headquarters a few days ago, have caused an extremely heavy economic burden.
The repair of warships, the supply of munitions, the reconstruction of buildings... these are all wasteful money.
As the "housekeeper" of the Navy Headquarters, Staff Officer Crane knows better than anyone how bad the current economic situation of the Navy has become.
