Navy Headquarters, Marlin Fando.
Zhan Guo was already extremely busy in his office.
"Kacha! Kacha!"
Karp was still eating his donut and barged in."Zhan Guo, what are you busy with? Yesterday, I competed with others in alcohol tolerance, and none of them could drink better than me. Wahahahaha ~"
"Sand Crocodile, Krokdahl has been killed!”
Zhan Guo said in a deep voice.
"Krogdal, one of the Seven Martial Seas?”When Karp talked about serious matters, he would be very serious."Who killed him?"
Zhan Guo then briefly told Karp everything that Krogdahl had done in the Kingdom of Arabastan.
After a while.
"Bastard Sand Crocodile, he actually killed so many innocent people. He really deserves to die!”"It's good that he's killed!" Karp said coldly.”
Then, he took another bite of the donut and said," Kacha kacha, wahahahaha! It's a good thing that he's dead!”
Karp had never shown any mercy to pirates who had committed all kinds of evil.
Hearing Karp's reply, Sengoku's face darkened.
"Karp, you old man, don't you know what I'm talking about?”Sengoku snatched Karp's donut and said angrily,""Aren't you curious who defeated Krogdahl?”
As soon as he said this.
Karp immediately stopped chewing.
"Oh right, Sand Crocodile Krogdal is one of the Seven Martial Seas!”" Even Smog might not be a match for the Sand Crocodile," said Karp, suddenly enlightened." Besides, Smog didn't go to the Kingdom of Alabastan."”
"Not bad!"
"This matter was spread by Smoggy's former assistant, Dusky."”
"So what if it was spread by Dusky?”
Karp still looked a little dazed.
"Idiot!" Warring States knocked on Karp's head.""Half a month ago in Roguetown, Dusky boarded that bounty hunter's ship!”
As soon as he said this.
" What?" Even Karp finally understood." You mean, you suspect that the Sand Crocodile was killed by that person?"”
"This is the only possibility."
Zhan Guo nodded.
Daski had boarded Lott's ship, and Smoggy had already reported it to Warring States.
Even the news reports at that time were shocked! Bounty Hunter Defeats Navy Captain Smogg to Steal His Assistant, Daski
Such a title.
Therefore, it was no secret that Dusky had boarded a bounty hunter's ship.
...
"To be able to defeat a bounty hunter from the Seven Martial Seas, it seems that our previous guesses were correct!”"It's very likely that guy." Karp narrowed his eyes and said seriously.”
"The bounty hunters of the great sea route shouldn't be a match for the sand crocodile.”"It should be him!" Zhan Guo nodded.”
Previously, the two of them had already suspected the identity of the bounty hunter from Roguetown, Sword Hero.
Now, according to the news from the Kingdom of Arabastan, they could not help but be more convinced of their guesses.
"Lott!"
Karp said the name.
Even Zhan Guo's eyes showed a hint of fear."It can only be him!"
Although they had yet to obtain the exact image information.
However, according to his speculations, he had already guessed it correctly.
That man was Lott!
The strongest bounty hunter from more than 20 years ago!
Someone from the same era as them!
...
After a long time.
"If he really went out to sea, what are you going to do?" Karp asked solemnly.”
Zhan Guo said helplessly,"
"What else can we do?"
"The higher-ups said that the Arabastan incident had to be announced to the public that the navy had defeated Krogdal.”
"If Qi Wuhai did something that harmed the public, the reputation of the World Government would definitely be affected if word got out.”
Indeed.
Sea of Seven Martial Arts was a legal pirate recognized by the world government.
If they were legal pirates and had done something that harmed the interests of the people.
This would definitely damage the reputation and prestige of the World Government.
"Humph! I knew this would happen!"
Karp obviously knew what Sengoku meant by " above ", so he mocked,""Those guys always try their best to hide their incompetence!”
(In the original story of One Piece, the World Government was also trying to cover up the incompetence of the navy. It was clearly Luffy who defeated the sand crocodile, but it was announced to the public that Colonel Smogue defeated the sand crocodile and was promoted to Brigadier General.)）
"Alright, Karp, this is not something we can change.”
Zhan Guo sighed.
"How are you going to announce this?”"Qi Wuhai's death is a big deal," Karp asked.”
"Just say that Staff Sergeant Dusky defeated the sand crocodile with the help of the Kingdom of Arabastan and the people.”"Then, we'll make an exception and promote him to the rank of Brigadier General."”
"A mere sergeant?" "Can a sergeant defeat the Seven Martial Seas?" Karp complained.”
Zhan Guo sighed helplessly,"
"Smoggy isn't in the Kingdom of Arabastan. We can't give him the credit, right?？”
"Besides!"
"Karp, you old geezer, do you still use military ranks to measure strength?
"You have to know that you're only a lieutenant general yourself!”
When Karp heard this, his old face instantly turned ugly.
"This old man became a lieutenant general to relax a little.”
"If you have the chance in the future, just abdicate. In your free time, the two of us old fellows will drink together.”
Hearing Karp's words, Sengoku couldn't help but be tempted.
The two of them were in the navy at the same time.
However, Sengoku had already reached the level of a marshal, while Karp had only been a lieutenant general for so many years and had rejected many invitations to be promoted.
"Let's not talk about my retirement first. I have a feeling that that guy will cause some trouble!”
Zhan Guo was still somewhat worried.
Although they were still guessing and had no evidence, they had already directly called the bounty hunter "Lott".
"Wahahahaha ~ Don't worry too much. We can't do anything to him! Fortunately, he is a bounty hunter and is not hostile to our navy. Otherwise, you'll have an even bigger headache!"
Compared to the Warring States Period, which was busy every day.
Karp, on the other hand, lived a much happier life.
He had never thought about anything in his life and had always been carefree.
"That's true! Anyway, we can't do anything to him. We just hope that he won't stand on the opposite side of the navy in the future!”
Zhan Guo paused and sighed.
