Chapter 358 - 358 Bounty Mission

358 Bounty Mission

In the face of the Marines’ punishment notice, Zhao Hao’s reply was also unusually tough. It was only a short reply of five words.

All pirates could be killed.

These five simple words were like a huge palm that fiercely slapped the faces of those officers.

For a time, a large number of officers were extremely dissatisfied. Even the Marine Headquarters sent seven Rear Admirals and 12 Vice Admirals to reason with Zhao Hao.

Kong sat on his office desk and slowly lit a cigar.

Then, he looked at the photos of Zhao Hao and the others in the newspaper and said in dissatisfaction, “They didn’t even take the initiative to call me, their superior, to exchange information. These little rascals are still lacking in the ways of the world.”

After saying that, Kong took out his Den Den Mushi and called Zhao Hao.

“Bulubulubulu!”

“Hello, who’s this?”

The Den Den Mushi rang for a long time before it was finally picked up.

Anger flashed across Kong’s face, but he forced himself to be gentler. He coughed twice before he spoke.

“Zhao Hao, I am—”

Before Kong could finish his sentence, the call was cut off in the next second.

Upon looking at the Den Den Mushi in his hand, which had already closed its eyes, Kong’s face froze.

Ever since he became a Fleet Admiral, a subordinate had never been hung up on him.

Kong was a little dumbfounded. After thinking for a while, he finally found a reasonable excuse.

“Yes, they should be somewhere the signal is bad. I’ll call him later.”

A few minutes later, Kong hung up the phone with a gloomy face. This time, no one picked up.

After hesitating for a while, Kong entered a string of numbers and dialed it.

This time, Kong did not have to wait too long.

The call was picked up very quickly.

However, the tone and attitude from the other side were extremely bad. A bright voice said, “Who is it? I’m Garp. I’m busy right now. Call me back in two hours.”

A clear ring was heard, and the call was hung up again.

Kong looked at the Den Den Mushi in a daze. He looked suspiciously at the title of Fleet Admiral on the desk and had mixed feelings.

After being hung up on several times, Kong was furious. He called Tsuru’s Den Den Mushi. Among the four of them, Tsuru was the most reliable.

Tsuru picked up the phone and a very polite voice came through. “Hello, who is this?”

Kong heaved a sigh of relief. Finally, there was a normal person.

“I’m Fleet Admiral Kong.”

“Hello, Fleet Admiral Kong. What can I do for you?” Tsuru asked politely.

“Well, it’s not a big deal. But first, tell me, what are Zhao Hao, Garp, and Sengoku doing? Why did they hang up so quickly?” Kong asked in confusion.

“Oh, oh, Fleet Admiral Kong, it’s like this. We found the Logia-type devil fruit ability user Cremator Walker. He’s running away. Zhao Hao, Garp, and Sengoku made a bet to see who can catch him.”

Tsuru’s voice sounded rather helpless. Who would have thought that she would actually be partners with three violent men?

“So that’s how it is.”

Only then did Kong understand why the two of them had hung up in such a hurry.

Considering that they were busy with work, Kong did not blame them. He told Tsuru to take care of the three boys and hung up the phone.

After ending the call, Kong lay down on his chair. He felt a strange feeling in his heart. Perhaps he was really old, but he could already take charge of the new generation of Marines.

At the New World, on an unknown island…

The town on the island was in chaos.

Buildings were falling down, and in the center of the city, a man covered in flames was running for his life.

Not far behind him, a young man with muscles all over his body was jumping around on the roof, chasing after him.

The flame-covered man was naturally the bounty target of Zhao Hao and the others—the Logia-type Flame-Flame Fruit’s current owner, Cremator Walker.

The muscular young man was none other than Garp.

After a few days of constant fighting with the pirates, Garp’s aura had clearly become much stronger.

His bare upper body was covered in wounds. This was the result of him following Zhao Hao around the New World and killing pirates.

With the existence of Zhao Hao, no matter how strong the pirates were, they would still be able to put up a fight.

Ever since they had come to the New World, their four-person team had never lost a single battle.

Garp took a step forward and disappeared from the rooftop.

Following that, his figure instantly appeared in front of Walker, and his black fist directly punched out. This was the advantage of being a genius. In just a few days, Garp had successfully comprehended Armament Haki, and he was very familiar with it.

Walker didn’t dare to be careless. Even if he could turn into an element, the fist engulfed in Armament Haki could still hurt him.

A huge flame vortex appeared on Walker’s body.

The scorching temperature set the nearby houses on fire.

Walker also knew that continuing to flee like this was not a solution. Only by defeating or heavily injuring the pursuers would he have a chance of survival.

Therefore, taking advantage of the time when the flames were concealing him, Walker turned around and attacked Garp.

The two of them instantly engaged in a fierce battle.

The combat strength of these two people was equal, so the momentum they created was particularly great.

That was especially so for Walker’s Devil Fruit ability. That blazing flame was simply a beacon of light.

It was especially eye-catching.

After Zhao Hao and Sengoku noticed the battle, they also headed in that direction.

“Cremator Walker, your life is over.”

At that moment, a chilly voice suddenly came from the side of the battle between the two.

Walker was shocked. He quickly kicked Garp away, and with the counterforce, he flew back.

He saw a purple-haired man coming from another direction.

Sengoku was not far from the battlefield, so he arrived not long after the battle broke out.

At that moment, Walker’s heart was filled with complicated feelings.

The muscular man was already difficult for him to handle.

Now, there was a purple-haired one! How was he supposed to fight him?

Seeing that Sengoku was about to make a move, Garp immediately became anxious and said to Sengoku in dissatisfaction, “Hey, I found him. Get out of my way. Don’t touch him, or I’ll teach you a lesson.”

In the face of Garp’s threat, Sengoku laughed in disdain.

“Tsk! Let’s bet on who can catch him. Don’t say that he belongs to whoever finds him first. So, he’s mine.”
