Chapter 6: A Rookie with a Bounty Over 100 Million! The Attitude of Two Major Pirate Crews!
"A black coffin?"
Kong's voice came through, carrying disbelief that was hard to dismiss.
When the Marine Branch reported, Bai Ye's ability wasn't this one!
Did Bai Ye possess two Devil Fruit abilities?
Garp and the others looked at each other, their faces also showing grave expressions, feeling utterly perplexed.
Momonga firmly repeated.
"That's right, I saw it with my own eyes. A black coffin!"
"Even I felt that move was extremely dangerous. One wrong step, and everything would be lost!"
Kong took a breath, feeling somewhat helpless.
That guy Ethan truly deserved to die!
A rookie who could have potentially joined the Marines, because of his idiotic actions, not only lost his life but also created a remarkably powerful enemy for the Marines!
"Issue a wanted poster."
Zephyr hung up the phone, his voice heavy.
"Regardless of the reason, it is a fact that Bai Ye harmed Marines and destroyed a Marine Branch! It is unforgivable!"
Tsuru nodded, but a look of contemplation quickly rose on her face.
"With Bai Ye's strength, how much bounty is appropriate?"
"Although he is a rookie, his strength is already quite terrifying!"
Sengoku thought seriously.
"A great pirate worth 73 million couldn't last one move under Bai Ye. Being able to easily wipe out a Marine Branch, set the bounty directly at 100 million!"
A rookie breaking 100 million on their first bounty?
Everyone felt it was a bit exaggerated, but given Bai Ye's impressive battle record, they all reached a consensus...
News Coo birds carried stacks of wanted posters, distributing them to all parts of the world.
Hachinosu (Pirate Island). Bonfires burned one after another on the dim grounds.
A group of pirates gathered nearby, lively and noisy.
"Newgate, I found an interesting guy."
A tall, thin man with golden hair styled like a lion's mane swayed over, grinning.
"A pirate rookie, Bai Ye. 100 million bounty on his first listing, that's rare."
"Gulp gulp..."
Whitebeard showed no concern on his face. He lifted a large bowl and poured wine into his mouth, glistening liquid dripping from the corners of his lips.
"Shiki, the world never lacks strong people, not to mention the one killed was just a dispatched Vice Admiral."
"Worororo..."
A figure over three meters tall, walking heavily with each step, muscles solid as steel, let out a hearty laugh.
"He hasn't even entered the New World, just a rookie daring to wander outside!"
"Maybe in a few days, we'll see news of him being killed in the newspapers!"
As cadres of the Rocks Pirates, the people present were all great pirates famous in the New World!
Even the one with the lowest bounty had 700 million Berries. In comparison, Bai Ye's bounty made no difference to them whether it was there or not!
"Mamamama..."
A tall figure with a voluptuous body stuffed a whole piece of cake directly into her mouth, her eyes filled with amused laughter.
"This sea never lacks strong people, but most fall quickly!"
"Let's wait until Bai Ye reaches the New World to see his performance!"
...
Little Garden.
Two hundred-meter-tall giants were frantically brawling. Every move and form had the power to move mountains!
"Hey hey! You two guys, keep it down a bit, dirt is falling on the roast meat!"
A person leaned against a tree, wearing a red hat brim, his leisurely voice carrying a hint of dissatisfaction.
"Roger, Dorry and Brogy are getting heated. Keep talking nonsense and be careful of getting gang-beaten by two people!"
Beside him, a young man with blond hair had several black lines hanging on his forehead as he spoke to remind him.
Silvers Rayleigh, Vice Captain of the pirate crew, bounty of 320 million!
"Those two? I can give them one hand and one foot!"
Roger grinned, revealing white teeth, his voice full of conceit.
"Don't speak so arrogantly, it's easy to get beaten up."
A man wearing sunglasses, carrying two huge axes on his shoulders, laughed heartily.
Skopper Gaban, navigator of the Roger Pirates, bounty of 250 million!
"Tch... to beat me, they need to have that strength, just the two of them..."
Roger laughed loudly, but his voice unknowingly trailed off.
Two shadows completely covered his surroundings.
Thick voices resounded like rolling thunder.
"Roger! You rookie newbie, pretty arrogant huh!"
"Want to taste my axe?!"
Boom!
Two weapons landed behind Roger. Just the wind blades were a large section taller than Roger's body.
Roger's face stiffened slightly, and he hurriedly turned back to smile.
"Just a joke, don't mind it..."
The Roger Pirates had only entered the New World two months ago and were also somewhat rookies.
However, the crew members had remarkable strength and had risen to fame on the sea.
Compared to Bai Ye, obviously countless times more people in the world knew their name!
"Roger, aren't we going to continue recruiting new crew members?"
Rayleigh watched leisurely as the giants and Roger messed around for a long time before interrupting to remind him.
"In today's bounties, a rookie appeared. First time on the list and the bounty broke 100 million. Should be a pretty good seedling!"
"Oh?"
Bullet joined the conversation, a trace of battle intent in his eyes!
In the Roger Pirates, only he was an out-and-out battle maniac. When meeting those inferior, he wouldn't even spare a glance; only when meeting the strong would a little bit of excitement arise.
"A rookie breaking 100 million on the first bounty is not common. I'd like to test his level!"
Everyone looked at him, unanimously putting on faces of disgust.
"It's not easy for us to find a rookie, don't cripple him!"
"Don't worry, I'll hold back!"
Bullet's interest was extremely high, grinning broadly.
"Where is that kid now? I'll go find him!"
Rayleigh looked at the information on the wanted poster and said.
"He is currently in the North Blue. However, a kid who won't stay lonely like that should be entering the New World soon..."
...
G-64D Marine Branch.
A group of Marines cautiously gathered in the distance, whispering as they looked at the young man sitting cross-legged in the cafeteria.
"Vice Admiral Ethan has been dead for almost three hours. Bai Ye has stayed in the cafeteria the whole time. Should we offer him food?"
"Who knows? Definitely a weirdo. Not moving for three hours, could he have fallen asleep!"
"If a meal can send that guy away, that would truly be fortunate enough!"
Bai Ye paid no mind to the discussions of the surrounding personnel, silently feeling the changes occurring within his body.
The fusion of the Hōgyoku seemed to turn into a warm current, penetrating his limbs and bones from the palm of his hand.
The simplest change was the increase in Bai Ye's visual and auditory capabilities.
Within a hundred meters, even objects the size of a hair could be seen extremely clearly!
The hushed whispers of the surrounding personnel were also clearly audible to Bai Ye's ears!
"I can consider going to the New World to play..."
