Grand Line’s Lord Of Shadows

At the same time, at the end of the first half of the Grand Line.

Adjacent on the Red Line.

In the magnificent Building, on the highest floor, in the Fleet Admiral's Office.

With a bang sound, Sengoku slapped the expensive desk heavily and stood up suddenly.

His eyes were burning with fire, and he looked at the adjutant in front of him with a face full of shock and anger: "What did you say? The base commander of the G-2 branch died?"

"Are you kidding me? They are just hunting down Nico Robin!"

"Fleet Admiral Sengoku, this is from the Marine personnel accompanying the G-2 base commander who sent the urgent report..."

Seeing the Sengoku burning with anger, the adjutant couldn't help but shed a cold sweat as he reported quickly: "It is said that they were searching for the whereabouts of Nico Robin on Isla Blanca."

"When they just found Nico Robin and were preparing to arrest her, Obask Luke suddenly appeared on that island!"

"He directly used Conqueror Haki to knock out most of the Marine personnel... and then fought with Vice-Admiral Comil!"

"But Vice-Admiral Comil was no match and unfortunately died in battle!"

"This is the photo that was urgently faxed back, confirming that it is Obask Luke himself!"

After the adjutant finished speaking, he respectfully presented a few photos and handed them to the Sengoku in front of me.

"That daring kid, the world government is worried about not being able to find him... He disappeared for a few months and then suddenly reappeared?"

Sengoku looked through the photos with fierce eyes.

In the first photo, a young, handsome, tall boy was standing on the rooftop with a young woman wearing a cloak.

"Asshole!!!"

His pupils dilated after turning to the last photo, and he became extremely furious.

"Bang!" 

The next moment, his palm fell heavily on the desk in anger.

That expensive desk fell apart in an instant.

In the last photo, it shows a bloody corpse.

It was so miserable that it didn't resemble a human.

Based on the blood-covered face, one could barely recognize that this was Vice-Admiral Comil, the base commander of the G-2 branch directly affiliated with the Marine Headquarters.

Marine Vice-Admiral can already be said to be the indispensable backbone of Marine Headquarters.

Any time personnel is lost, it is a huge loss for Marines.

Not to mention that it is a base commander of the G-branch that is directly under the Marine Headquarters.

How can Sengoku not be angry?

This is simply a provocation and trample on Marine's majesty.

"Damn it... Obask Luke, that bastard kid, is simply lawless!" Sengoku's face turned dark, and he gritted his teeth.

"The current situation is not just a matter of the unfortunate sacrifice of a Marine Vice-Admiral... at this time."

An elderly woman wearing a cloak walked in with a serious expression.

"Vice-Admiral Tsuru!" The adjutant next to Sengoku directly saluted.

This gray-haired old woman is no ordinary woman.

She is not only the Vice-Admiral of Marine Headquarters but also serves as the Marine think tank and the chief adviser of Marine Headquarters.

"Tsuru, you're here..." 

After seeing who it was, Sengoku's livid face suddenly relaxed a lot.

The two have been friends, fighting side by side since they were young.

There has been a friendship between them for decades.

Sengoku even had a crush on her when he was young.

It's a pity that he was too thin-skinned at that time, for fear that his confession would be rejected, and as a result, others beat him to it.

For this reason, Sengoku still has regrets to this day.

"Obask Luke is a traitor from CP9 and knows too many secrets..."

Tsuru was not polite to Sengoku and said in a deep voice: "The reason he wants to get close to Nico Robin is probably for the Ancient Weapon!"

"Ancient Weapon?"

Sengoku had a serious look on his face; he frowned and said, "Trouble... It's really unsettling for two dangerous guys to come together!"

The legendary Ancient Weapon has the power to destroy the world.

Although he didn't know whether it was real or fake, as the Fleet Admiral of Marine Headquarters, he did not dare to bet on such a possibility.

Any threat must be nipped in the bud.

"And it's worth noting that his strength has improved so quickly..."

Vice-Admiral Tsuru said seriously.

"On the day of the big riot at Enies Lobby, he grabbed two Devil Fruits, one of which was a rare Mythical Zoan. He really cannot be underestimated..."

Sengoku nodded: "No wonder Comil was defeated by him so easily!"

When he was making a big fuss at the Enies Lobby,

The marine responsible for escorting Devil Fruit is just an ordinary Vice-Admiral.

In terms of strength, he is even a little bit worse than an elite Vice-Admiral like Comil.

At first, the defeated Vice-Admiral did not attract much attention.

But now, the strength displayed by Obask Luke cannot be ignored.

If they want to really catch the opponent, they may have to send an Admiral candidate or Admiral.

"No, that's not what I want to say..."

Tsuru shook her head directly.

Pointing to the photo in Sengoku's hand, she said bluntly: "According to the information sent back, he has not shown any devil fruit ability."

"He relied entirely on his physical skills to crush Comil, a veteran Vice-Admiral with great strength and rich experience!"

"Furthermore, if you look at Comil's body, the injuries are more likely to be caused by a powerful shock wave, which is completely inconsistent with the abilities related to the Rat-Rat Fruit, Model: Scythe Weasel described in the Devil Fruit Encyclopedia!"

"You mean he may have acquired other Devil Fruit abilities?" Sengoku asked in surprise.

"According to CP's intelligence, Obask Luke was not yet a Devil Fruit user when he defected."

"This possibility cannot be ruled out!" 

Tsuru said bluntly: "But it is also possible that his physical skills and Haki have improved by leaps and bounds!"

"That kid is indeed not simple. Together with Rob Lucci, he is known as the strongest genius in CP9 in the past 800 years, but it seems that Rob Lucci may be far inferior to him..."

Sengoku nodded solemnly: "If I remember correctly, he is only seventeen years old, right?"

"Precisely because he is only seventeen years old, we need to pay more attention..."

Tsuru felt a little inexplicable and said quietly: 

"He hid it too deeply, and he was born with awaken Observation Haki. Moreover, he also awakened his Conqueror Haki without anyone knowing!"

"If we continue to let him go and give him time to grow, I'm afraid he will become another Red-Haired!"

Hearing this, Sengoku couldn't help but have a drastic change of expression.

Red-haired Shanks, the trainee on board the Roger Pirates, is a rising star who has been rising rapidly in recent years.

Although the Red Hair Pirates are not as good as the Whitebeard Pirates, the Big Mom Pirates, and the Beasts Pirates.

But that's just because the power under his command is inferior. 

In terms of strength, it is no weaker than those monsters on the sea.

In fact, Red-Haired Shanks has been vaguely considered to be qualified to stand on an equal footing with great pirates such as Whitebeard, Big Mom, and Kaido.

Even if the Marine wants to go to war with the Red Hair Pirates, they must be fully prepared.

This shows how high Vice-Admiral Tsuru's opinion of Obask Luke was.

"Go… call that guy Aokiji over here!"

Sengoku's expression changed, and he finally made up his mind: "The trouble he left behind should be solved by himself!"

The general Vice-Admiral is obviously no match for Obask Luke.

So, he wanted to directly dispatch an Admiral to handle the situation.

It is undoubtedly more stable.

"Ah? Yes, Fleet Admiral Sengoku..."

The adjutant left in a hurry.

Vice-Admiral Tsuru didn't say much.

She naturally understands the meaning of Sengoku's action.

It stands to reason that fifteen years ago, under the Buster Call, there was no possibility for anyone to survive.

How could an eight-year-old girl escape alone?

Moreover, Spandine, who was the top officer of CP9 and the person in charge of Buster Call at the time, kept mentioning that their ships wanted to pursue her, but the result was as if the bottom of the ship was frozen and unable to move…

Combined with Aokiji's abnormal performance at that time, it was obvious that the other party was shaken in his heart and felt compassion to let go of Nico Robin, a potential threat.

Now, a dangerous guy like Obask Luke is getting involved with Nico Robin, the Devil Child, who can decipher historical texts.

The danger of the incident is undoubtedly extremely serious.

It can no longer be left unchecked.
