Xavier, who was nearby, was incredibly shocked.
Although he couldn't see, he was certain that the explosion at the edge of the forest was definitely caused by Alvin's shot.
Is this still a sniper rifle?
This is a sniper cannon!
And it's the kind with Haki!
For a moment, he felt fear towards Alvin, this sniper with an 80 million Berries bounty.
Red Hawk Alvin is truly terrifying; he must be made to leave the Coral Kingdom as soon as possible, allowing him to stay here will definitely cause even greater waves!
"Red Hawk!"
"You said you would leave tomorrow; a dignified great pirate with 80 million Berries shouldn't go back on his word." Xavier's expression when he looked at Alvin was now filled with vigilance.
Alvin naturally felt this vigilance.
He responded indifferently, "Don't worry, King Xavier, I will leave at dawn tomorrow."
After speaking, he ignored Xavier's reaction, shouldered his sniper rifle, and went downstairs to his room.
Now that he had found a way to enhance the power of his sniping technique, all he had to do next was continue to strengthen his Haki, and the power of his sniping would also continue to increase.
However, before strengthening his Armament Haki, his physique's strength must also be improved first; if his physique is strong enough, the quality of his Haki will also be stronger!
——
Many people heard the explosion caused by Alvin's shot, so the guards quickly arrived at the explosion site.
When they saw the shattered Lily, they immediately reported the situation to King Xavier, who was at the hotel.
Although Xavier had already guessed that the explosion was caused by Alvin, he still felt shocked when he heard the truth directly from the guards.
This kind of sniper, Red Hawk Alvin, is too terrifying!
——
After returning to his room, Alvin had the hotel send him a lot of food for a late-night snack; he planned to strengthen his physical strength.
"System, consume all bounty points to strengthen physical strength!"
"Ding~"
"Strengthening… 3… 2… 1… Strengthening successful!"
In just three seconds, Alvin's physical strength increased by 60 million from 76 million, reaching the 136 million Berries level!
Although physical strength doesn't represent overall power, if his physical strength is enhanced, his overall power will also increase.
Because physique is the foundation of becoming stronger!
"Strange, System, my physical strength has reached the 136 million Berries level, so why haven't my muscles become like a muscular man?"
"Ding~"
"This system strengthens physical strength by enhancing muscle toughness, not by turning the host's muscles into iron blocks."
"Muscle toughness? So that's how it is… Then I'm relieved." After hearing the system's explanation, Alvin understood, and he no longer had to worry about becoming a muscular man.
"Gurgle~"
"Hiss~ As expected, every time I strengthen my physical strength, it requires energy!"
"Time to eat!"

After nightfall, people on the sea finished their day's labor, and the sea seemed to become peaceful.
However, the Marine intelligence personnel in the Coral Kingdom were somewhat busy; the events of this day could be said to have left a deep impression on them.
Red Hawk Alvin is indeed a bloodthirsty great pirate; on his very first day in the Coral Kingdom, he caused a scene that terrified everyone there.
They carefully recorded the events that transpired there today and then immediately reported them to Marine Headquarters Marineford.
Red Hawk Alvin is a pirate with a bounty of 80 million Berries; pirate incidents of this magnitude fall under the direct management of Marine Headquarters.
...
Marineford.
Brannew immediately reported this intelligence to Vice Admiral Tsuru, the Marine's chief of staff.
"Vice Admiral Tsuru, I think Duke of Bones might not be able to handle Red Hawk Alvin," Brannew expressed his opinion to Vice Admiral Tsuru.
Vice Admiral Tsuru, however, had a solemn expression.
She didn't respond to Brannew but instead pondered Alvin's possible future developments.
And that fellow Aokiji, he still hasn't returned from the West Blue...
Thinking of this, she looked up and asked Brannew, "Tell me about Admiral Aokiji's reaction when we had the meeting to set Red Hawk's bounty."
Hearing this, Brannew was surprised for a moment, but quickly recovered, "Alright, Vice Admiral Tsuru, at that time, Admiral Aokiji…"
...
After Brannew finished speaking, Vice Admiral Tsuru's gaze drifted out the window towards the West Blue, "Sigh… Aokiji, that fellow, is he really still holding a grudge over the Ohara incident all those years ago…?"
Back then, the World Government ordered the Marine to use a Buster Call to eliminate Ohara, and Sengoku, who was an Admiral at the time, took on this mission.
Finally, Sengoku sent Akainu and Aokiji, who were still Vice Admirals, to use the Buster Call to bomb Ohara.
However, in the end, Akainu and Aokiji had conflicting opinions regarding the evacuation ship.
At that time, civilians who were not Ohara scholars boarded the evacuation ship, and Aokiji advocated letting them leave.
But Akainu, under the pretext that there were Ohara scholars on the evacuation ship, destroyed it, leading to the deaths of all innocent people on board.
Afterward, the Marine even falsely accused eight-year-old Nico Robin of destroying the evacuation ship, which led to Nico Robin being branded as the "Devil Child" and having a 79 million Berries bounty.
From the end of the Ohara incident, Aokiji began to doubt the Marine's justice, and his own justice transformed into a "lazy justice."
Vice Admiral Tsuru knew that Aokiji had been following incidents related to Nico Robin all these years, and with Red Hawk's appearance this time, he probably wants to prove something too…

Coral Kingdom.
The night was as dark as ink, fleeting in an instant, and the faint morning light filtered through the mottled windowpanes, casting warm yellow patches across the room.
Alvin slowly woke up, his consciousness not yet fully returned, but he first noticed his hands being tightly held, and the warm breaths near his ears.
He slowly opened his eyes and saw two young ladies nestled closely beside him, sound asleep.
Their breathing was soft and even, like a gentle breeze rippling across a lake, and their faces still bore the blush from being drunk.
Alvin immediately realized that they seemed to have… last night.
Last night, when Alvin returned to his room door, he met two beautiful young ladies carrying two bottles of wine, inviting him to drink with them.
Alvin readily agreed.
A rich fragrance permeated the air, winding in threads, entering Alvin's nostrils, like an invisible hand gently pulling him, making him almost too reluctant to get up.
However, Alvin also knew in his heart that a brief indulgence was excusable, but if one were to constantly wallow in it, it would be no different from boiling a frog in warm water.
So he gritted his teeth and, with great willpower, struggled to get out of the warm bed.
But as soon as he sat up, his eyes instantly became indifferent: "You actually chased me all the way here, but that's fine, I'll deal with you …"
