章 29: The Aftermath at Navy Headquarters
Chapter 29: The Aftermath at Navy Headquarters
---
Navy Headquarters
Fleet Admiral Sengoku sat at the head of a large conference table, surrounded by some of the Navy's highest-ranking officers. The atmosphere was tense, the weight of recent events heavy on everyone's mind. A telephone snail was prominently placed in the center of the table, its presence a reminder of the direct line to the highest echelons of the World Government.
Admiral Zephyr, known as Z, leaned forward, his expression stern. "We've received word from Admiral Kanji regarding his encounter with the Silverhair Pirates. It seems we underestimated them."
Sengoku nodded, his face grim. "Let's hear the details."
The telephone snail activated, and Kanji's voice filled the room. "Fleet Admiral Sengoku, this is Kanji reporting. The mission to capture the Silverhair Pirates has failed. Sergio D. Arthur and his crew have proven to be far more formidable than anticipated."
Kanji's detailed account of the battle played out through the snail, each word carrying the gravity of their encounter. "Arthur demonstrated exceptional skill in swordsmanship and the ability to foresee movements with advanced Observation Haki. But what was truly alarming was the sudden and powerful awakening of his Conqueror's Haki."
Kanji's voice wavered slightly as he recalled the intensity of the moment. "Arthur's Conqueror's Haki created a moment of chaos. The sea itself reacted, causing a massive tsunami and cyclone. Many of our men were incapacitated by the sheer force of his Haki, including some of our Vice Admirals and Generals."
The room was silent, the officers absorbing the information.
Admiral Tsuru, known for her calm and strategic mind, was the first to speak. "A Conqueror's Haki of that magnitude is rare. It signifies not only strength but the potential for great influence. We must consider the broader implications."
Vice Admiral Akainu, his face twisted in anger, slammed his fist onto the table. "This Arthur is a threat that must be eliminated. We can't allow pirates with such power to roam free. We need to intensify our efforts and crush them before they can grow stronger."
Vice Admiral Aokiji, always more laid-back but no less serious, nodded thoughtfully. "Kanji's report indicates that Arthur's abilities are not just raw power but also refined skills. This isn't just about brute force; it's about strategy and control."
Vice Admiral Kizaru, his usual nonchalant demeanor intact, added, "Indeed, a pirate with that kind of Conqueror's Haki is quite troublesome. It seems like we have our work cut out for us."
Vice Admiral Garp, who had been uncharacteristically quiet, finally spoke up. "Conqueror's Haki at that level is dangerous because it can rally others to his cause. We've seen this before with the Pirate King and his crew. We need to be cautious."
Admiral Zephyr, his face stern, leaned forward. "We must respond decisively. Increasing the bounties on Arthur and his crew is a start, but we need a strategy that accounts for his Haki and his tactical mind."

As the discussion continued, the telephone snail buzzed again, and a deep, authoritative voice cut through the air. It was one of the Five Elders, known as Saturn Elder.
"Fleet Admiral Sengoku, this is Saturn Elder," the voice boomed. "We have been monitoring the situation closely. The power Sergio D. Arthur has displayed is indeed a significant threat to the stability of the world."
The room fell silent as everyone listened intently.
"We must take immediate and severe action. Increase Sergio D. Arthur's bounty to 660 million berries. His crew members' bounties should also be increased accordingly. This will signal to the world the danger they represent."
The officers exchanged glances, understanding the gravity of the directive. Sengoku nodded. "Understood, Saturn Elder. We will update the bounties and issue new wanted posters immediately."
As the meeting concluded, the Navy's communications officers went to work, preparing the new bounty posters. Each poster bore not only the face and name of the Silverhair Pirates but also a chilling prefix added by the World Government to emphasize their danger.
- Sergio D. Arthur: "The Rising Conqueror" - 660 million berries
- Alex D. Grey: "The Deadshot" - 420 million berries
- Rei D. Hiroshi: "The Sword Demon"- 380 million berries
- Rathor K. Rio: "The Silent Sniper"- 320 million berries
- Ventic Lisa: "The Navigator of Chaos" - 240 million berries
- Ventic Surv: "The Knife Mistress"-210 million berries
- Dr. Megulus: "The Poisoned Healer"- 180 million berries
The new posters were distributed across the world, each bearing the ominous prefixes meant to instill fear and caution.

World Government's
In the halls of the World Government, the reaction to the updated bounties was swift. The Five Elders convened once more, their expressions grim.
"Arthur's power cannot be ignored," one of the Elders stated. "We must ensure that every corner of the world understands the threat he poses."
Saturn Elder nodded. "We will allocate more resources to tracking and capturing the Silverhair Pirates. This cannot be allowed to escalate further."

Back at Navy Headquarters, the atmosphere was charged with a renewed sense of purpose. Vice Admiral Akainu, ever the zealot, rallied the troops. "We will find them and we will destroy them. There is no room for hesitation."
Vice Admiral Garp, though not in agreement with Akainu's harsh methods, understood the need for action. "We'll need to be smart about this. Brute force alone won't be enough."
Admiral Tsuru, ever the strategist, began drafting new plans. "We need to gather more intelligence on their movements and weaknesses. This isn't just about strength; it's about outmaneuvering them."
Admiral Zephyr, taking a more direct approach, prepared for the next encounter. "Our training regimen will be intensified. Every soldier must be ready to face opponents of Arthur's caliber."

As the new bounties spread across the seas, the world took notice. Pirates and civilians alike whispered about the Rising Conqueror and his crew, their fear and curiosity growing.
In a hidden cove, a man with a scarred face looked at the new wanted posters. He chuckled darkly. "The Silverhair Pirates, huh? Seems like the seas are about to get a lot more interesting."

The Silverhair Pirates
On the deserted island where they had begun their training, Sergio D. Arthur and his crew were unaware of their new status as some of the world's most wanted pirates. They focused on their training, pushing themselves to new heights.
Arthur felt a strange sense of foreboding but pushed it aside. "We have to be ready for anything. The world won't wait for us to catch up."
His crew nodded in agreement, each member determined to grow stronger and support their captain.
