One piece: Starting as a Mythical Beast

Hearing that, not far from the burly man, a Marine officer also dressed in Marine uniform spoke up.

"According to intelligence, everyone except Kronos was at the scene. And several others on his ship, as well as dozens of Jewelry Bonney and her companions. A total of 53 wanted criminals, five of them newcomers with bounties over 100 million!"

"More than 100 civilians and pirates were killed or injured at the scene, and over 60 houses were damaged!"

"The main culprit, of course, is Kronos, captain of the Kamui Pirates, who killed Celestial Dragons!"

"The 237 security personnel from the occupational security center who went to support after the distress call also lost contact!"

"Yeah... it should be a complete annihilation of the entire unit!"

The reporting officer's voice was a little hoarse.

Killing nearly 400 people in one go!

This is truly an unprecedented event!

After a moment's pause, the officer continued.

"In short, the killing of Celestial Dragons is an unheard-of event!"

Hearing this, the burly man wearing a Marine cape with a seagull insignia on his head turned slightly and asked,

"Any requests?"

Obviously, this was about the Celestial Dragons.

This matter was not just about catching pirates.

Such a terrible incident had already caught the World Government's attention — and was taken very seriously.

"All suspects are to be executed on the spot!" the officer replied in a deep voice.

At that moment, another officer hurriedly ran out of the conference room.

"Report! Fleet Admiral Sengoku!"

The burly man with the seagull insignia heard the call and looked sideways.

"What is it?!"

The officer hesitated briefly before saying,

"Sabaody Archipelago Land 1. The Celestial Dragons were attacked!"

As soon as the news came out,

Sengoku suddenly felt dizzy.

"That guy named Kronos again?!"

The officer shook his head at Sengoku's words.

"No! It's Monkey D. Luffy from the Straw Hat Pirates!"

This time, Sengoku felt even more dizzy.

"That kid again? What's going on with that clan?!"

Meanwhile, behind Sengoku,

an officer leisurely drinking tea in a chair said calmly,

"Anyway, I will take action against the nobles of the world. It's okay if we don't move, right?"

"Admiral Kizaru?"

Hearing this, Sengoku turned his head subconsciously.

Kizaru, somewhat lazy, slowly stood up after sipping his tea.

"I'm going!"

"I'll be back soon... don't worry."

Having said that, Kizaru put down his teacup, turned, and strode out of the conference room.

Meanwhile, District 21, in a hospital—

"Hey Kronos, we're here... are we really safe?"

"Admiral! The Marine Admiral is coming!"

Bonney looked nervously at Kronos and asked.

Kronos calmly sat at the table, sipping tea.

"Where I am is the safest place."

"As long as you're by my side, I'll keep you all safe."

"This is safer than sailing out of the Sabaody Archipelago and taking shelter."

Listening to Kronos' words,

Bonney couldn't help but subconsciously glance at the other Kamui Pirates members.

To her surprise, they were as calm as Kronos.

Those drinking tea kept drinking, those standing stayed silent.

There was no sign of the Marine Admiral coming, no sense of impending doom.

"Alas, that's the Marine Admiral!"

"Are you... really sure?"

Kronos said nothing.

Instead, one of Bonney's crew spoke up to comfort her.

"Captain! Just listen to what Captain Kronos says!"

"I think it's pretty safe to stay here too!"

Bonney was stunned for a moment.

When she looked again,

she realized her crew members were as calm as Kronos and the others.

Calm and collected, leisurely drinking tea,

as if none of this was their concern at all.

Not only that,

everyone nodded solemnly in agreement with that statement.

After a while, Bonney became furious and scolded,

"Hey hey hey! What are you idiots doing?!"

"Is this the time for tea?!"

"It's the Marine Admiral! You still have the heart to drink tea here?!"

Hearing Bonney yell,

the crew took a sip of tea and shrugged helplessly, shocked.

"But there's nothing we can do now, right?"

"It's too late to run, isn't it?"

"If we run into the Marine Admiral on the way, we'll be in danger, right?"

"And I think Captain Kronos has a point."

"It's safer to stay with him now than to go out."

At these words, everyone nodded in agreement.

They didn't know how strong the Marine Admiral really was,

but the horror that was Kronos was real!

Instantly killing the Celestial Dragons' guards!

Killing hundreds in one strike!

Such power and terror made being with him scary,

but it also gave them a 4.7-fold increase in their sense of security against the enemy.

Listening to Captain Kronos' calm demeanor, the crew was reassured.

Bonney, meanwhile, was pissed off.

Her eyes closed tightly as she held back her anger,

the veins bulging on her forehead as she said in a deep voice,

"Make it clear to me, hey!"

"Who the hell is Captain Kronos to you?!"

"You idiots!"

With that, Bonney rolled up her sleeves, clenched her fists, and yelled at her crew.

Her voice was like a battle cry.

But after that, she poured herself a cup of tea and sat leisurely across from Kronos.

At this moment, she had to admit—

Kronos was right.

It was a little safer to stay by his side now...
