Chapitre 26: Galdino
New World, New Marineford
Fleet Admiral's Office
Akainu, with a grave and solemn voice, holds a Den Den Mushi in his hand and asks, "Where are you now?"
"Eh?!" replies a voice from the other end. Aramaki, soaring through the skies of Wano with a flower sprouting from his back, looks surprised. "I'm in the air?"
"No, I mean your exact location in Wano," Akainu clarifies seriously.
"Rahahaha!" Aramaki bursts into laughter, dropping his evasive attitude. "Actually, I've already arrived in Wano."
"Damn it!" Akainu's face darkens immediately, heat emanating from his body. Coldly, he orders, "Go to Wano, but avoid unnecessary actions. If you can resolve the situation, do so. Otherwise, withdraw. Understood?"
"I've also been informed that the World Government sent CP0 to Wano. Pay attention to that," adds Akainu.
"Yeah, yeah, I know," Aramaki responds nonchalantly before carefully hanging up the Den Den Mushi.
Silence
Akainu sets down the microphone, his expression growing even grimmer. He can't believe Aramaki infiltrated Wano without authorization. Doesn't he understand that even if he manages to enter, he lacks the capability to emerge victorious? Does he really underestimate the Straw Hat Pirates?
Lost in thought, Akainu clenches his fists tightly, generating magma that melts everything around him. The defeat of Kaido and Big Mom has boosted the power of the pirates, and now the pressure is on the Marines. He only hopes Aramaki can handle the situation in Wano.
Moreover, the issues with the Revolutionary Army during this year's Levely only exacerbate the situation.
Akainu rubs his forehead wearily. Recent events have left him utterly exhausted.
KNOCK
A sharp knock reverberates through the door. Tensei, Director of the Criminal Investigation Office, bursts into the office with a perplexed look.
"What's the matter?" Akainu asks, adjusting his posture upon seeing the newcomer.
"There are some developments in the investigation of the Levely events," Tensei replies, sitting in a chair while his glasses hide his expression. "However, the matter is complex and involves the Gorosei, as well as some secrets."
"According to the World Government, everything is related to Sabo of the Revolutionary Army. Cobra was murdered, and his daughter, Vivi, has been declared missing," Tensei explains significantly.
"Moreover," he adds, "the World Government has ordered us to closely monitor the communications of the Revolutionary Army. Once we find Sabo's trail, we are to eliminate him without hesitation. It is said that this time, the Gorosei themselves will handle it personally."
Akainu frowns at the mention of the Five Elders. He opens his mouth to speak but the words get stuck. Tensei's orders are clear: the World Government has taken control and the Marines have no choice but to comply.
"There's more," Tensei breathes deeply before continuing solemnly. "According to the latest information gathered, before being thrown into the depths, Kaido uttered words that, based on our investigations, refer to the resurrection of his former captain, the Ninja God of Wano, Hashirama."
"King is already heading to the West Blue. We have yet to discover how he plans to resurrect him..."
"What?!!" Akainu exclaims, standing up in horror and disbelief. It's evident he knows the story of the Ninja God of Wano and his death on the island of God Valley.
"Has the World Government said anything about it?" he asks urgently.
"The World Government didn't take Kaido's words seriously, considering them merely the incoherent rage of a dying man," Tensei responds after a brief reflection. "The Five Elders have also expressed their belief that Hashirama cannot be resurrected."
Sighing, Akainu shakes his head. "Send Tokikake to the West Blue to capture King. For now, the Marines will focus on Wano and the Revolutionary Army. I have a hunch they've discovered something important, which is why the World Government has ordered their immediate elimination," he orders with determination.
"Understood!" Tensei responds with a brief salute before getting up and hurriedly leaving the office.
"Sigh... The sea is about to stir again..." Akainu murmurs to himself once Tensei is gone. He knows very well that the World Government is hiding crucial information from the Marines. What did Sabo of the Revolutionary Army see in Mary Geoise that has prompted the Five Elders to issue such an extreme kill order?

Bluffs Island, New World
Cross Guild Headquarters
Galdino's heart pounded in his chest, driven by a mixture of excitement and pride. The newspaper in his hand announced the news he'd been eagerly waiting for: his good friend Buggy had become one of the new Emperors of the Sea, Cross Guild.
With a grin stretching from ear to ear, Galdino couldn't help but imagine the future awaiting him. Being the right-hand man of a Yonkou granted him unimaginable power and influence. Even Crocodile, his former boss, would now be relegated to a lower position.
"It's time to share this great news with the boss!" Galdino thought, quickening his pace as he headed to Buggy's room. His excitement was so overwhelming that he didn't even bother knocking on the door.
Boom! The door swung open, revealing a scene that froze Galdino's blood in his veins.
There, sitting in the room's chair, were Crocodile and Mihawk. But what horrified Galdino the most was Buggy's decapitated head, held by the hair in Crocodile's hand. Mihawk's cold and ruthless gaze, with his black sword pointing directly at Buggy, completed the gruesome scene.
A choked scream escaped Galdino's throat as he instinctively recoiled, tripping over his own feet.
