Kapitel 40: 40(7)
Dungeon, 7th Floor, Battle Arena.
*BOOM!*
*BOOM!*
*BOOM!*
The battle that took place between Garp and Shanks became more and more intense over time. It is now time to enter the evening. The sky on the 7th floor which previously had a bright color will slowly begin to change with pitch darkness that reflects the night. However, the current battle between Garp and Shanks could not be said to be ended quickly.
The two of them fought on a par with each other with neither one being able to deal any fatal attacks at all. Meanwhile on the side of the audience. No one dared move to leave the battle arena. Everyone was seriously watching Garp and Shanks' battle.
*BOOM!*
Shanks was again pushed back by Garp using a punch with his full strength. Shanks quickly stabilized his body and looked at Garp, "Garp! You better give up the battle this time" Shanks said seriously while looking at Garp, "Ace is already here. That means Whitebeard's pirates already know about this place and will come soon. With Whitebeard's presence, this place will be known by the whole world and your movements will definitely be known by the World Government."
"Shut up! You have no right to order me!" Garp shouted and immediately accelerated at full speed towards Shanks while preparing his attack.
"What an unruly old man" Shanks said while releasing his slash to block Garp's attack/
*BOOM!*
The clash between the two attacks returned and generated an extremely powerful shockwave.
"Garp! You better pay attention to your surroundings! It is now time to enter the evening! There is a possibility that Whitebeard will come tomorrow. If you Marines don't have a basic foundation here. The plan you guys wanted to build will soon be ruined" Shanks said back to persuade Garp.
Garp didn't listen to Shanks' words and started to increase his strength and immediately pushed Shanks back.
Garp without waiting for a long time immediately jumped high and immediately used a momentum from the sky then attacked Shanks who was currently being pushed back and tried to stabilize his body again.
*BOOM!
By the time Garp was about to attack Shanks, Shanks managed to safely dodge the attack and Garp only attacked the ground beneath him.
Shanks immediately countered Garp's attack with several slashes coated in his weapon's Haki.
*BOOM!*
*BOOM!*
*BOOM!*
However, all of those attacks were instantly destroyed by Garp using his punches. Garp immediately accelerated back towards Shanks which Shanks also did and soon their two attacks clashed fiercely.
*BOOM!*
"Sengoku-san, it looks like it's time for us to end this battle" Aokiji said seriously, "The current time seems to be approaching night. There is a possibility that tomorrow Whitebeard will soon arrive here which will make information about the Guild soon spread throughout the world. We still haven't controlled any of the territories on the first floor yet. Besides, we also don't have crystals. If this battle continues, there is a possibility that this battle will end within 10 days from now."
Sengoku nodded and looked up at the sky then sighed, "Looks like we can only let the Akagami group own the territory for now"
Akainu who heard this became very angry and clenched his fists tightly. However, the current situation didn't allow him to do anything. Even though he was the one who intervened in a battle like this. There was no way he could fight Shanks the same way Garp did now. Akainu himself is aware of the power possessed by him.
"Garp!" Immediately Sengoku shouted very loudly.
Sengoku's shout immediately attracted the attention of everyone present. This also applies to Garp and Shanks who immediately stopped their battle after hearing Sengoku's screams.
"We are withdrawing from this battle" Sengoku said seriously and looked at Garp.
Garp who heard this immediately understood that they had already lost the battle as he looked up at the sky where the sky was now slowly turning pitch black. Garp immediately sighed then looked at Akagami with a serious look, "Today's battle will be postponed. I will challenge you again"
"Of course. I will always accept your challenge." Shanks immediately smirked and was also happy that the battle was finally over.
Shanks himself didn't have the will to fight for long especially at this time their group also still couldn't build a strong foundation within the guild.
Ars who was observing the battle from above the sky slowly descended, "Well, have you decided to withdraw from this battle yet?" Ars asked Garp.
"I'm backing out" Garp replied curtly.
"Alright" Ars then floated a little high in the sky then said, "The battle for territory and defense between the Marine group and the Akagami pirate group represented by Marine Heroes Vice Admiral Garp and Yonkou Akami No Shanks is finally over! This battle was won by Akagami no Shanks thanks to Vice Admiral Garp admitting his defeat this time."
"With the end of the battle between the Marine group and the Akagami pirate group. Today's battle I close! For anyone who has the desire to do territory battles. Please come register with me directly during the guild service time. Now you can return to your original position and carry out your respective activities as before. You just need to use the adventurer card you have and say "Back". That adventurer card will take you directly to where you were before coming to this place."
Along with the end of the announcement of Ars. Ars immediately clapped his hands and instantly Shanks and Garp who were currently in the battle arena instantly disappeared. The spectators who were there also immediately used their adventurer cards and disappeared from the battle arena.
Saboundy Island Archepelago, Area 13, Shakky Rip of Bar.
"If you want to go to the guild now to register to become an adventurer. You'd better do it tomorrow" Shakky who saw Doflamingo rising from the seat immediately said calmly, "There are no guild services anymore. If you want to register, do so tomorrow. Usually the guild only opens registration and other services from 8 am to 5 pm. Even though the guild is open 1x24 hours. You definitely won't be able to meet Ars there."
"Fufufu… Good information" Doflamingo smiled hearing the information and immediately left the bar with a satisfied smile even though he had to pay Shakky 600 million berries. However, Doflamingo was quite satisfied with watching Garp and Shanks' battle.
Guilds.
Ars and Garp suddenly reappeared in the guild. Not long after the two appeared, Sengoku and others immediately followed them into the guild.
"Nice battle" Ars said with a commendable smile towards Garp, "Didn't expect that at your age, you can still maintain your strength, Garp."
"Bahahaha…" Garp who previously had a depressed expression immediately returned to being happy to hear Ars' praise. After all, in Garp's eyes right now Ars was a very strong person. Getting compliments from someone who is very strong is something very good for him.
"So, what's your next plan? Do you guys still want to enter the dungeon? Currently there are 6 areas that are still not controlled by a group. You can try to take the territory that is between the 6 regions."
"We did have such a plan." Sengoku nodded seriously.
"Hey, Sengoku" Garp suddenly called Sengoku, "How about before we enter the dungeon, we buy enough food? All of my current energy was exhausted due to the previous battle. I need to recharge my energy"
Sengoku's gaze at Garp became very strange then he sighed and looked at Borsalino, "You went to the branch headquarters then took some cash. After getting all that cash, you immediately went to buy a large amount of food for us to eat in there"
"Why should I go? Why not Gion or Akainu or the others?" Borsalino asked strangely, "Besides....."
"No reason. You are the fastest here and we need to get into the dungeon immediately" Sengoku looked at Borsalino with a serious look, "Hurry up and do it! If you don't, I'll cut your salary this month."
"Alright" Borsalino sighed then looked at Aokiji, "Kuzan, lend me your storage bracelet. It's quite difficult to carry a lot of things in one go."
"Eh?" Aokiji was surprised by this request from Borsalino.
"You can give your bracelet to him, Kuzan" Sengoku said seriously, "It was only borrowed by him, later after that he can return it to you. Besides, we currently have to move quickly."
"Okay" Aokiji sighed then looked at Borsalino who was currently looking at him with an excited look, "Borsalino, you have to return it"
"Don't worry, I will definitely return it in time" Borsalino said with a smile.
Aokiji immediately handed over his storage bracelet. After getting the storage bracelet, Borsalino immediately left the guild to buy food that they would later consume.
Meanwhile at Ars and Ace's side.
"What are you going to do after this, Ace? Are you going into the dungeon or do you want to wait tomorrow?"
"Isn't it obvious?" Ace's face showed a smirk, "I'm going in tonight and going on a hunt tonight. I have to get enough crystals to be able to get the magic items here especially the storage bracelet. With that item, I don't have to worry about food anymore."
"Oh? Interesting. Well then, good luck" Ars said calmly and immediately turned to walk away.
"Where are you going, Ares?" Ace asked in confusion.
This immediately caught the attention of Sengoku and the others.
Ars immediately held up a guild service time information board, "It's now half past six in the afternoon. My work time is over. I will go to the 2nd floor to rest. Oh yes. please don't do battle inside this guild. Guilds themselves have security mechanisms. If you violate it, you will later get a pretty bad punishment. Then, see you tomorrow."
Ars didn't wait for everyone's answer. He went straight up to the second floor to get some rest. After Ars left the guild, Sengoku immediately called all the top Marines to go to the sofa to talk about what they were planning to do and who would be assigned to the first floor area.
As for Ace himself. He didn't go straight into the dungeon but instead went outside to gather food before re-entering the dungeon. It could be said that Ars wanted to make preparations.
