Is this the spy that the Konoha Pirates planted in the Navy?
Aokiji immediately recognized Akihara Kagura's identity. Besides some Navy veterans and friends, which normal Navy member would dare smile at an Admiral like him?
I've heard...
The Konoha Pirates' spy in the Navy isn't very strong?
Aokiji scrutinized Akihara Kagura, seemingly wanting to see what was worth paying attention to on this person, why would the Konoha Pirates place him in the Navy?
If he's really just an evil person with no strength, then in the future, find an opportunity to clean him out. The Konoha Pirates probably wouldn't break with him over this matter.
"You want to kill me."
Akihara Kagura said with a smile, seeing through Aokiji's thoughts.
"Oh... have you seen through me?"
Aokiji rubbed his forehead, not attempting to deny his thoughts: "When there's too much of something, it loses its value. One of these things is enough..."
"I actually think the more the better..."
Akihara Kagura chuckled softly, not caring about Aokiji's killing intent, even proactively providing a timeframe: "But at least not on Drum Island. How about I give you a time instead? If you want to kill me, it's best to do it before I get the Rumble-Rumble Fruit..."
"..."
The laziness in Aokiji's eyes suddenly vanished!
The Rumble-Rumble Fruit!
This guy actually has information regarding the Rumble-Rumble Fruit?
Even among Logia-type Devil Fruits, the power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit is considered top-tier, with speed and power even surpassing the Flash-Flash Fruit!
Most importantly, if this guy gets the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, the Navy will definitely pay attention to a powerful Logia-type ability user, and if he trains hard at the Navy Headquarters in the future, there's a high chance he could become an Admiral!
"Do your best."
Akihara Kagura looked up at the tall Aokiji and actively encouraged him: "I should be able to get the Rumble-Rumble Fruit this month, your time is running out..."
After finishing speaking, Akihara Kagura was about to leave with Karin, not caring if his behavior was polite enough to an Admiral who had revealed his intent.
"Less than a month left?"
Aokiji could only watch helplessly as Akihara Kagura's figure faded into the distance.
If Akihara Kagura gets the power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, the Konoha Pirates may not even be willing to let him kill him. Even with the terrifying Logia-type ability of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit, killing him would become an impossible task...
"Something's happened!"
A Navy member hurriedly rushed to the castle, seeking reinforcements, only to see Aokiji sent by Sengoku had already arrived: "Admiral Aokiji is already here? There's an urgent message from the Navy ship, a pirate crew is trying to seize Clown Buggy!"
"I'll head over immediately..."
Aokiji mentally calculated the time.
According to the plan he and Marshal Sengoku discussed with the Konoha Pirates, he only needed to rush over at the critical moment to prevent the opponent from rescuing Clown Buggy, and blocking the fatal blow against the Navy, just an unimpressive performance.
At the port of Drum Kingdom.
The Navy on the battleship was in chaos.
Because they had no commander, they were simply no match for the enemy; of course, even if they had a commander, defeating the enemy would be unlikely...
A wooden dragon emerged from the water, coiling around this battleship, and vines sprawled from the dragon, binding each navy member tightly.
"What kind of ability is this!"
"Fire! Fire the cannons!"
The Navy left behind had no power to resist!
The entire crew of Navy responsible for guarding Buggy on the battleship was tightly bound by vines!
While Clown Buggy's crew was puzzled, their cell in the ship's cabin was suddenly opened by a vine, releasing all the pirates inside.
"You can leave now."
The vine slowly condensed into a humanoid form, turning into a man with long black hair, speaking softly: "We're here to save you."
"We've been rescued?"
The entire Buggy Pirates were moved to tears.
Since their capture, they'd been held in a dark, dingy cabin, unable to believe they'd have a chance of escape!
"There's no way to repay your great kindness..."
Clown Buggy was overwhelmed with excitement, fearful of being blamed for killing a Celestial Dragon and being executed, he felt hope in a desperate situation.
"No need to speak of repayment..."
The man who appeared honest seemed a bit embarrassed, speaking proactively: "We've prepared a ship for you, best leave quickly, the Admiral is about to arrive..."
"The Admiral is coming!"
"Hurry and flee!"
All the pirates rushed out in fear!
Clown Buggy and Alvida led the charge!
The Konoha Pirates had treated them well, truly preparing a ship for them, complete with supplies, and even provided them with secret information about a treasure.
"We admire heroes who kill Celestial Dragons..."
"Heard you like treasure..."
"We just happen to know about a treasure."
"One generation of kings in Alabasta was one of the Twenty Kings who founded the World Government, so their royal lineage also lives outside as Celestial Dragons, for some unknown reason he and his descendants never took residence in the Holy Land Mary Geoise as Celestial Dragons should..."
