Three days later, with the Marine warships that had blockaded the Sabaody Archipelago dispersing.
The Celestial Dragon beheading incident, which had been raging for a full seven days, came to an end.
On this day, because of the defeat of the two Admirals and the beheading of the Celestial Dragons, it was hailed as the Marine's shame by those who liked to stir up trouble and spread throughout the entire sea.
For a time, the Impel Down jailbreak mastermind, the Skeletal Demon, became famous, and he rightfully became the new king among the supernovas.
Even Fire Fist Ace, who had recently declared that he would behead Whitebeard, was suppressed and ranked second.
At the same time, because Fire Fist Ace had been taken into Whitebeard's command and become the commander of the second division under the premise of assassination, it was regarded as a failed assassination.
Compared to the two, Fire Fist Ace fell to the lower ranks.
Inside the Marine Headquarters, the huge conference room fell into deathly silence.
During these seven days, as long as they were stationed at the Marine Headquarters, they were all full of exhaustion, and some even had dark circles under their eyes and looked drowsy.
However, faced with the premise that they had dug three feet into the ground but couldn't find the Skeletal Demon's whereabouts, no one dared to make a sound in this kind of occasion, let alone yawn.
"Alright, I know everyone is tired." Sengoku took the lead and looked around the room and said, "The reason why I've gathered everyone this time is because the events in the Sabaody Archipelago have damaged the reputation of our Marine Headquarters."
"Damaged?" Garp suddenly rolled his eyes and said, "How come I heard that in the Sabaody Archipelago and even the nearby islands, many people are celebrating the Celestial Dragons being killed? That's why the World Government has unexpectedly remained silent. This is called doing many unrighteous things will lead to self-destruction."
The sudden words scattered the oppressive atmosphere in the room all of a sudden.
However, the cheek muscles of the Vice Admirals present couldn't help but twitch a few times.
They had all heard of this kind of thing.
However, no matter what the occasion, their Marine Headquarters was the gateway to the World Government and even the Celestial Dragons.
Only Garp, who was a Marine hero, dared to express his opinion like this.
"Garp, shut up for me. You won't die if you say one less word." Sengoku glared at Garp. He had a headache for this reckless old partner.
After pausing, he picked up the brand new wanted poster in his hand and said, "This time, the World Government didn't pursue our Marine Headquarters' failure to protect the Celestial Dragons."
"So, next, Bastille and Comil will be reinstated. However, in order to restore the Marine's reputation, Bastille has applied to be temporarily transferred to the East Blue to patrol."
"And the brand new wanted poster in my hand is the Skeletal Demon Uchiha Kai's new bounty amount. Take a look. If there are no objections, this will be sent out immediately."
As these words fell, everyone's gazes all landed on the wanted poster.
The number that entered their eyes instantly made their pupils contract suddenly.
"A bounty of 1 billion?"
The faces of the Marine generals present changed drastically all of a sudden.
When he escaped from the Great Prison, Kai only had a bounty of 350 million.
Now, it had jumped to 1 billion all of a sudden. This was completely a three-level jump in the amount of the bounty.
Feeling everyone's shock and the whispering scene.
Sengoku patted the table to signal silence and said, "Everyone, be quiet."
"I believe that everyone feels very shocked about the amount of 1 billion. However, I want to tell you that not long ago, the new star Fire Fist Ace was defeated by the Skeletal Demon. I believe everyone knows about this."
"Yes, Fleet Admiral Sengoku. This matter has been spread by Big News Morgans. Right now, the new star is the Skeletal Demon." Onigumo took the lead and said.
"However, defeating Fire Fist Ace, who has a bounty of 400 million, and causing the events in the Sabaody Archipelago, according to the danger level rating, shouldn't the bounty amount be around 600 to 700 million at most? Moreover, we haven't issued a bounty of 1 billion for a pirate in a long time."
"Putting out a bounty of 1 billion in this kind of occasion will probably damage the prestige of our Marine Headquarters even more."
Many Marine generals silently nodded in agreement with Onigumo's words.
The events in the Sabaody Archipelago had already made them swallow a mouthful of bile, unable to express their suffering.
If they issued a bounty of 1 billion again, wouldn't that be declaring to the outside world that this man was so strong, so powerful, and so mighty?
It was simply slapping themselves in the face.
Watching the scene that had become a bit noisy again, Sengoku frowned slightly and said, "Alright, it seems that your intelligence network is still not mature enough, which is why you can't achieve the principle of knowing yourself and your enemy and winning every battle."
Speaking of this, Kizaru and Akainu, who were sitting on the side, couldn't help but twitch their cheeks.
However, no one spoke out to refute, and their faces only sank a degree.
Sengoku glanced at them with satisfaction and said, "If it was just defeating Fire Fist Ace and beheading the Celestial Dragons, he would indeed only be worth a bounty of 600 million. But if I let you know that he not only fought with Fire Fist Ace that day, but also the Shichibukai, the captain of the Sun Pirates, Jinbe, was present."
"Afterwards, he boarded the Whitebeard Pirates ship and met with Whitebeard, and ultimately retreated safely. Tell me, just based on these two points."
"Is he worth 1 billion Berries!"
The low voice, at this moment, was like a thunderclap, echoing in the conference room for a long time, unable to dissipate.
Onigumo, who had objections just now, had a sudden change in expression.
Whitebeard was one of the four pirate kings on the New World sea.
Being able to meet him and still retreat safely, the amount of information was too great.
Watching the Marine generals who were looking at each other in dismay, Sengoku snorted with satisfaction and said, "It seems that everyone has no objections, then this wanted poster will be sent out."
"If you think that this will damage the reputation of the Marine Headquarters, then I hope you can capture the Skeletal Demon as soon as possible."
"Also, the World Government didn't pursue our Marine Headquarters' dereliction of duty, more because of this reason."
"From now on, immediately strengthen the search for pirate ships heading to the New World and get that guy's whereabouts as soon as possible."
As Sengoku's orders fell.
A brand new wanted poster spread to every corner of the New World.
A terrifying existence with a bounty of 1 billion, who had appeared out of nowhere, officially entered the sights of the top forces on the sea.
However, the direction they were searching in was completely opposite to the direction that Kai was going.
In their eyes, the New World was a place that any pirate yearned for.
But for Kai, he was now penniless and clean. Not to mention a ship.
He couldn't even read a Log Pose.
Most importantly, Kai still needed to increase the realism of Ainz and Laxus.
To increase the turmoil in the world and restore his own strength.
