Because of this, the sturdy middle-aged man felt the vibrations getting stronger the closer he got to the surface.
The organs in his body seemed to be somewhat damaged by the shaking.
Enduring the discomfort, he tried to rush to the surface at a faster speed. But the moment his head emerged from the ground, a fist wreathed in crimson magic slammed down.
The island could no longer withstand such immense force. It began to split apart and sink. Finally, the entire island, along with the middle-aged man who had been killed by the punch, sank into the sea.
Milim and Charlotte Linlin stood quietly in the air, calmly watching this scene unfold.
Linlin couldn't help but sigh with emotion. "Every time I see your strength, I am amazed by it. They say my talent is one in ten thousand at sea."
"But Milim, I think your talent is the strongest in this world."
"Those two opponents I was entangled with for three days, you managed to kill both of them in just a short while." Charlotte Linlin looked at Milim!
Although she knew that the reason Milim could kill the two so easily was, one, because they were both extremely exhausted from the three-day battle, and two, because Milim had sneak-attacked the old man.
And the damage to the old man's weapon was what allowed Milim to achieve a one-hit kill.
As for the middle-aged man, because of Milim's Dragon Eye, his advantage of hiding in the rocks was completely gone. Milim could easily see all his hidden positions.
Even so, Milim's strength was irrefutable. According to what Milim had said, with her infinite energy and infinite stamina, as long as they were not on the same level, anyone below her was no different from an ant.
Her own current strength should be considered to have entered the Admiral level. An ordinary Admiral would be helpless against her. After all, she was Charlotte Linlin; her iron skin and Phoenix Fruit were too overpowered.
"Heehee!" Milim showed a proud expression, her little eyes constantly signaling for Linlin to praise her more.
Linlin smiled helplessly. "Let's go. We should be heading back now."
"Eh?" Milim, who was waiting for praise, was momentarily stunned. She pouted angrily but still followed behind Linlin.
The two quickly left this sea area and returned to Totto Land!
And now, everyone on the sea was staring at the newspapers in their hands with wide, disbelieving eyes.
The newspaper headline read: "A Power That Can Destroy the World, the Destruction Tyrant, Milim."
The paper featured a photo of the island before the attack, a photo of Milim's attack, and a final photo of the island after it was hit.
The next news story was about Charlotte Linlin fighting against three powerful individuals and managing to kill one of them.
"Gurarara!" Edward Newgate let out a loud laugh, but his eyes were very serious as he looked at the newspaper. "Rocks! A powerhouse who can surpass you has been born."
"Hahahaha! She's a powerhouse indeed! It seems we'll have to add another person to our plan." Rocks laughed wildly, his eyes filled with confidence, but he also acknowledged Milim's strength.
"I never thought such immense power would belong to this little girl!" Shiki said with a cigar in his mouth and a comical smile on his face.
"By the way, Rocks, are we going to look for that Giant King again?" A very young Kaido looked at Rocks in confusion. "Hasn't he already refused to join your plan?"
"Harald must join my plan. He is the one who can perfectly utilize that fruit." Rocks' eyes were filled with ambition. "With him, we can definitely take over the entire world."
"Honestly, the captain is daydreaming again," Shiki complained nonchalantly, his tone showing no respect for his captain.
Rocks didn't care about Shiki's tone. They were all gathered together because of their ambitions, so it was natural that they didn't have any camaraderie.
...
Marine Headquarters. Kong's face was grim as he looked at the newspaper in his hand!
Also present were Garp, Sengoku, Tsuru, and Zephyr.
Kong rubbed his head. Ever since Rocks had caused a commotion at the Holy Land, Mary Geoise, and even killed a Marine Admiral in the process!
The top-tier combat power of the Marines had been disrupted. Although Garp and the others were becoming seasoned, they were not yet ready to be Admirals. And at this time, Totto Land had suddenly emerged, and within it was the Destruction Tyrant, Milim, who could easily destroy islands.
It was as if everything was happening at once.
After a few seconds of silence, Kong suddenly spoke, "Sengoku, what do you think we should do next?"
"Should we raise the bounty, or ignore it?"
A young Sengoku lowered his head in serious thought. After a short while, he looked up again. "I think we can hold off on any action for now, and even directly cancel the bounties of the people from Totto Land."
"Oh! And the reason?" Kong's tone was very calm, as if he already knew the answer.
"According to the information, Charlotte Linlin and Milim have not indiscriminately killed innocent people since they set sail and established Totto Land. As for the destroyed island, that was a battle between nations, which we Marines have no authority to interfere in," Sengoku stated his reasons calmly.
"Moreover, our main enemy right now is Rocks. He has gathered many pirates and is clearly planning something big."
"If we were to increase the bounties of the king of Totto Land and Milim now, it would only push Totto Land towards Rocks."
"Neither the Marines nor the World Government can accept such a consequence."
After hearing Sengoku, Kong nodded. "What you said is similar to what I was thinking. The Marines currently do not have the ability to suppress both Rocks and Totto Land at the same time. Instead of pushing Totto Land to Rocks' side, it would be better to try to be on good terms with them."
"Then, let's cancel the bounties of Milim and Charlotte Linlin."
"Understood!" Sengoku nodded in response.
Then, Kong's gaze fell on Garp, who was secretly stuffing a donut into his mouth. Dark lines appeared on his forehead.
"Garp, this is a meeting room, not a place for you to eat donuts."
"What's the big deal about such a small thing?" Garp said nonchalantly, stuffing another donut into his mouth.
As a Marine, Garp was excellent in every way. Both his combat power and his achievements were enough for him to be promoted to Admiral. It was just that Garp had always refused the position, and his willful behavior was a headache.
"Sigh!" Fleet Admiral Kong sighed helplessly, his tone softening. "Garp, you are a Marine, not Roger's personal shadow. Don't just follow him wherever he goes."
"I know, I know," Garp said, waving his hand dismissively. But his nonchalant expression already proved that he hadn't heard a word Fleet Admiral Kong had said.
And while the rest of the sea was in shock, the Roger Pirates were having a party.
"This power is just ridiculous! They destroyed a country just like that. I even warned them, but they thought I was a liar!" Roger chugged a mouthful of alcohol.
