Chapitre 40: Chapter 40:
After receiving the news from Crescent Island, Navy Headquarters immediately took action. Vice Admiral Crane was tasked with calculating Lucifer's action and suggesting the new bounty.
Simultaneously, news of Lucifer's destruction of Crescent Island spread throughout the Marine, Vergo, an undercover agent, to immediately informed Doflamingo of the update.
"Hey,here's the situation."
"Yes, Marine has confirmed that Lucifer destroyed Crescent Island, and none of the tens of thousands of pirates on the island survived."
"Kizaru made his own assessment and stated that Lucifer is extremely powerful, unmatched by any Marine rear Admiral. You should be careful."
"Okay, got it. I'll remain alert."
The call was brief, and Vergo ended the conversation after transmitting the news. As an undercover agent, he knew the importance of being wary. Any leak of information could result in a swift and deadly response from the Marine, leaving him with no chance of escape.
Meanwhile, in Dressrosa...
Doflamingo, having just ended the call, crushed the Den Den Mushi in his hand.
"Lucifer, so it was that arrogant brat!"
Since Diamante's death, Doflamingo had suspected Lucifer to be the culprit. There were only a few strong players in the first half of the Grand Line, and even fewer who could defeat Diamante. The Marines wouldn't take action against him, considering Diamante was one of the Warlord's subordinate.
Not many pirates dared to challenge Diamante, and his reputation is also high. Apart from that, rookies..... .Those rookies, with their unwavering determination and are fearless from their nature, they often wants to made a name for themselves in their pursuit of the One Piece. They wouldn't even regard Whitebeard highly, let alone a Diamante.
Among the rookies who debuted that year, Lucifer is the most prominent, boasting a terrifying record.
Doflamingo's suspicions were now confirmed by Vergo's report.
"Heh, so he wants to challenge me, Demon Lucifer! How courageous!"
With a series of cold flashes, Doflamingo cut Lucifer's wanted poster into pieces. The impact caused the palace windows to shatter alongside the collapsing walls. Jumping through the gap, Doflamingo transformed into a pink figure and ascended into the sky.
"Damn kid, I'm coming for you!"
Under the vast blue sky, Doflamingo's expression twisted, his grin become even more fearful.
.......
On the endless sea, a grand pirate ship sailed gradually. The ship was large and decorated with luxurious decorations, sparkling with gems and gold.With symbol of a sinister laughing demon with two enormous wings.
This pirate ship, named "Nether," was built by Lucifer using his abilities. Now that he had established his own pirate crew, he could no longer rely on stolen ships.
As the Nether sailed, Lucifer sit leisurely on a beach chair on the deck, wearing sunglasses to shield his eyes from the sun. Beside him, Cavendish was engaged in his usual workout routine, lifting a massive barbell and performing push-ups.
Ever since his encounter with Lucifer, Cavendish had been dedicated to improving his strength. Lucifer had generously taught him the cultivation methods for Observation Haki and Armament Haki.
Cavendish showed commitment, and it wouldn't be long before he successfully awakened his two forms of Haki.
"Hey, maid, I've run out of juice. Go get me another glass," Lucifer called out, his hand holding an empty glass.
"I'm not your maid! Show some respect, you bastard!" Baby 5 responded with a cold attitude, smoking a cigarette.
However, she didn't resist for long and obediently went to pour juice for Lucifer. Her words contradicted her actions.
"Cuckoo, cluck."
Suddenly, a news bird descended from the sky and landed on the table in front of Lucifer, tilting its neck and fixating its gaze on him.
"Hmm.... a newspaper," Lucifer flicked his fingers, and a gold coin shot into the purse attached to the news bird's chest. The news bird retrieved a newspaper and handed it to Lucifer.
Opening the newspaper, the front page showcased a major news event that shocked the world.
"The Red Hair Pirates have defeated the Henry Pirates and are on the verge of claiming the throne!"
The newspaper featured a large photo of Shanks, the Red Hair himself—an infamous pirate known to all.
As the great pirate who had gained fame worldwide, few were unfamiliar with his face.
The King's War in the New World was reaching its climax, with powerful pirate crews battling fiercely for the throne. Shanks, leading the Red Hair Pirates, had emerged victorious against numerous challenging opponents, including the well-known Henry Pirates.
At present, the Red Hair Pirates were the closest contenders for the throne and Shanks himself was the favored candidate for the Fourth Emperor position.
Many predicted that Shanks would ultimately win and ascend to an equal standing with Whitebeard, Kaido, and Big Mom, solidifying his place as one of the Four Emperors and ruling over the New World!
