LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 787 AOT Returns in its Fourth Season!
_________________
Whitebeard wasn't the only one searching for Teach; Roger was looking for him too. In fact, Teach had become the focus of the entire world.
But Teach wasn't the only one suffering from this attention.
Sakazuki was also struggling. He had just escaped a frantic chase by some hunters he encountered at sea. These hunters were a mix of A and B ranks led by the legendary hunter, World, who narrowly escaped due to urgent intervention from Rob, after enduring much under the three admirals. They recognized him immediately and rushed to chase him down. He managed to escape, but just barely under their siege.
…
Boom! "...What a disgrace!"
Angrily, Sakazuki slammed his hand against the wooden wall of his ship's cabin, causing it to crack.
He hadn't expected that a simple mission to track down the Blackbeard Pirates after the Impel Down incident would lead him to encounter a legendary hunter squad bolstered by dozens of skilled hunters at the level of vice-admirals and higher!
To top it off, the legendary hunter was the same one who failed to kill him a few months ago and held a blood feud with him! He had indeed escaped by a miracle.
"What a humiliation! The only way to wipe this disgrace is to destroy that hunter!" Sakazuki was extremely angry, embarrassed by his need to flee with his tail between his legs.Who would have thought that the terrifying Marine Admiral, who burned half of Whitebeard's face and struck fear into readers and the entire world in the manga, would flee from a mere legendary hunter, not even one of the top ranks in his guild?
If the one who had chased him was the number one in the guild, the King of Hunters, Rob, it might have been somewhat acceptable. But he fled from a mere subordinate… and a weak one at that.
When he remembered Rob, he glanced instinctively at his severed hand, now replaced by a mechanical arm. Hatred in his heart grew day by day… this arm was the price he paid after trying to kill World that day.
"Calm down, Sakazuki... you had no choice. The enemy was backed by many powerful hunters. You did the right thing by retreating; otherwise, the price you'd have paid would have been more than just an arm this time."
On the Den Den Mushi, Sengoku tried to soothe Sakazuki.
"Try to return as quickly as possible. I've received news that the Whitebeard Pirates, Roger Pirates, and the Revolutionary Army have taken you as their target."
Hearing this from the Fleet Admiral, Sakazuki's brow twitched… this time he didn't need to think much, he wished to reach the headquarters quickly.
"Why?" asked Sakazuki.
"Well, your existence is troubling for them. Clearly, they didn't like what your counterpart did in the manga. To prevent your counterpart from appearing in this world, they have to kill you…"
"That's why I'm sure they all want to kill you, just as much as they want to kill Blackbeard."
"Let them all come… what they don't know is that I am already as strong as my counterpart or even stronger."
Sakazuki clenched his fist, forming a burning magma fist that caused the Den Den Mushi in his hand to evaporate, cutting off the connection with Sengoku.
"So you all want to kill me? Why don't I come to you instead?"
"Admiral! We've received some interesting news."
Suddenly, Vice-Admiral Doberman, who was very loyal to Sakazuki, entered.
"What is it?" Sakazuki's fist returned to normal, and the ashes of the Den Den Mushi fell to the ground, the poor snail having turned to ash.
"We are a few miles away from Long Ring Long Land Island, where there's an art store. We've received news that a new episode of Attack On Titan is about to be broadcast... should we stop by to watch it?"
"Hmm?" Sakazuki felt his interest piqued upon hearing this. He was a fan of this anime, especially the main character who had changed dramatically after the historic third season.
"Go... I want to know what Eren will do…"
"If World chooses to continue the chase, I'll kill him this time."
"Long Ring Long Land, then? Perhaps it is destined for you to die in this very place where I failed to kill you last time."
Doberman shuddered upon seeing the murderous look in Akainu's eyes and nodded quietly before leaving.
Seeing Doberman leave, Sakazuki quietly looked forward to the new episode of AOT. He had always looked forward to seeing that boy's eyes, always appearing empty as if he had seen everything and anything, seen the bleak future, understood his purpose, and accepted the heavy justice he had to enforce, even though he didn't want to.
Sakazuki always saw his reflection in Eren.
…
Today's date was September 29, 1505, in the Sea Calendar, a very significant date because today marked the return of one of the greatest anime shows the people of the sea world had ever watched.
Attack On Titan in its fourth season!
The second part of the third season had ended three months ago with the Survey Corps successfully reaching the basement in Eren's house after reclaiming Wall Maria. They discovered the truth about the world outside the walls and the origin of the Titans, a shocking revelation for all AOT fans...
There was also the dramatic death of Commander Erwin Smith and Levi's choice to inject Armin instead of Erwin, saving him from death by giving him the power of the Colossal Titan by transforming him into a Titan and having him devour Bertolt.
The epic scenes at that finale caused massive excitement among fans, with discussions about the last episode continuing for many days!
Today in Ohara, where all forms of art are revered, the first episode of the fourth season was about to begin.
After the announcement of the trailer for the fourth season of the series, everyone was in a state of vigilance and anticipation.
Today, two days after the airing of a Naruto episode featuring a fierce battle between Team Naruto and the two Akatsuki members, and the recent conclusion of the somewhat dull Golden Lion Arc in One Piece anime, it was time for the first episode of Attack On Titan's fourth season to astonish everyone through the art store's screen.
…
"Do you really want to watch Eren? This anime is not suitable for children, dear..."
Rob had a gloomy expression as he saw Robin wiping her tears with a sad expression, and behind her was an army of children with similar teary expressions. They were all his children in one way or another.
"Even if it's a little bloody... and it scares me a bit when I see Titans eating humans, it doesn't mean I can't watch it, Dad!"
Little Robin made a small fist and bravely indicated to her father that she was not afraid and that the bloody scenes of AOT didn't affect her at all.
Yamato, Hancock, and the others did the same.
This left Rob speechless and staring into the void.
He had previously banned children from watching harsh anime like Akame Ga Kill and AOT because they simply weren't suitable for children. He also gave adults the right to choose if they didn't want to watch.
In this way, even though the giant screen was very prominent, they wouldn't be able to see or hear anything if they didn't want to and could sleep peacefully with the mere thought.
But who would have thought he'd be reprimanded by his children? Who had been sent by Ohara's children to speak on their behalf, and maybe children from all over the world…
At this moment, Rob was caught between a rock and a hard place. It was impossible to let children watch such a deep anime with mature themes and a tragic ending.
Maybe he would let them watch Attack On Titan: Junior High instead?
