Captain Moby’s eyes flashed in anger, but at the same time he noticed something that wasn’t right, so he asked Ross in a sinking voice:

“What do you want to ask?”

“The first question, are you also involved in the Tarot town incident with him?” Ross did not intend to beat around the bush.

Moby frowned and didn’t answer, but asked: “What about Tarot town? What do you mean?”

Ross stared at Moby for a while, reached into his sleeves, and threw the recording at Moby.

Moby took the recording device and frowned, and it quickly played the talk between Ross and Capone Leckie.

As their conversation was broadcasted Captain Moby, who was present at the scene, and several Commanders suddenly looked at each other. Obviously, they did not expect this kind of thing!

 

“Damn!”

Moby’s face showed a very angry expression, staring at Leica, who was being stepped on by Ross and he wished that he could cut Leica’s head with his own sword.

The expressions of several commanders colonels were also darkening. As for the officers and soldiers, they all felt as if they were listening to a fantasy story.

“Lieutenant Commander, take everyone out!” When Moby heard half of the conversation, he directly pressed paused the recording device and gave a command, letting Lieutenant Commander take all the Marines soldiers out of the room.

 

….

 

He looked up at Ross and said: “I have neglected this matter, but things have already gotten to this point so I can’t provide an explanation for you. I need to report this to my superior.”

Ross stood there calmly and didn’t talk.

Moby took a deep breath as turned and walked out of the room, went to his office, dialed Den Den Mushi on the table, and quickly connected to the Marine Headquarters.

“Is it Rear Admiral Strawberry? I have something to report to him.”

……

 

Marine Headquarters.

 

This is the core of Marine’s power, and it controls the numerous Marine bases and Marine divisions spread across the entire sea.

In a large office on the second floor which is responsible for connecting the various Marine branch bases, receiving their reports and issuing various instructions.

 

“How can there be such a thing?!” Listening to the report from the West Blue Marine branch, Strawberry’s narrowed eyes jerked open and his face changed.

Although it is only a divisional thing, this kind of thing can involve Marine’s prestige and face. Once it is not handled well, it will cause a lot of trouble for them.

 

He quickly stood up and walked to a separate office next to him.

“Vice Admiral Doberman, there is a troublesome matter here…”

Marine Vice-Admiral Doberman sat in a chair and listened to Strawberry’s report with a slight frown. After a few minutes, he said: “This thing can never be spread out, otherwise Marines will lose their reputation and face in West Blue, and the people will lose their faith in the government and condemn it.”

 

“Then how should we proceed.” Strawberry inquired in a low voice.

Doberman hesitated slightly before revealing a hint of indifference on his face, saying: “Clear everything, Execute this matter… and after that the report that was going to be reported is that the murderer was killed on the spot under the pursuit of Marines, and Commander Leica died fighting the murderer.”

Although Strawberry guessed that Doberman might decide this way, he couldn’t help but say, “But that Ross didn’t do…”

“The bounty orders have already been sent, are you planning to report it to the government and let the government withdraw it?”

Doberman interrupted Strawberry’s words and said with an indifferent gaze. “It’s just a Pirate Hunter. Compared with Marine’s prestige, you should be clear about what is more important.”

Strawberry’s expression changed a few times, and finally, he sighed and complied with the orders and left Doberman’s office.

Doberman shook his head and continued to browse the documents on the table.

……

 

“Complete execution?”

After receiving the order from Marine Headquarters, Moby did not reveal any unexpected expression on his face. In fact, he also decided to do the same, because only by doing so can the impact of this matter be minimized.

For Ross, a little Pirate Hunter, it’s almost impossible for Marine to admit their wrongs and take back the wanted order!

After hanging up the Den Den Mushi.
Moby’s expression became completely indifferent as he left the room and returned to the office of Commander Leica where Ross was.

The atmosphere in Commander Leica office was very strange.

Ross was stepping on Commander Leica’s back as he stands there calmly, while the other commanders had confused embarrassed look on their face.

Originally they thought that Ross was a murderer who slaughtered an entire town, They did not expect this to be led by Leica and Capone Mafia, and Leica even framed him.

“Captain Moby.”

Seeing Moby’s return, several restless Commanders turned around and looked at him at the same time, waiting for Moby to announce their superiors orders and decision.

Moby walked slowly to the front of the crowd, looking at the Ross who stood on Leica, and said: “The Headquarter has given their orders.”

 

Whiz!!

 

At the moment when his voice fell, Moby suddenly moved and he pulled out the long sword at his waist as he rushed toward Ross.

The power of this sword is far stronger than Leica and Capone Leckie, and the tip of the sword even overflows with faint sword energy!

Ross retreated to the edge of the room, avoiding the sword.

However, Leica was not so lucky, as he was already in the attack range of Moby’s sword and he was directly split into two halves!

Startled by the sudden change many commanders who were present did not have any time to respond.

“….. Captain Moby!”

“Headquarters’ order, everyone directly involved in this matter is to be executed.”

Seeing that Ross had avoided his attack, he did not pursue him immediately. Instead, he announced the order given by the Marine Headquarters to several of his subordinate commanders.

 

Several Marine Commanders looked at each other in dismay.

Ross is not a murderer, but if they carefully think about it, how can Marine and the government recover the already issued bounty for a Pirate Hunter.

 

“What a brilliant scene.” Ross stood by the wall and spoke.

His mouth twitched slightly as if he was laughing, and he seemed to ridicule the marines. This expression made the few commander in the room shudder for some inexplicable reason.

“Then, starting today, I am a pirate.”

Moby looked at Ross with a cold face and said: “You can’t leave here today, there is Leica who has framed you dead, accept this as my apologies as you rest in peace!”

 

Whiz!

Moby rushed to Ross again, and the sword in his hand chopped out.

“Rainstorm!”

His sword was wrapped up in weak sword energy as he waved it up and down, like a storm, covering Ross in the center. He did not give Ross any time and space to dodge ashe planned to directly kill Ross who had his back pressed against the wall.

 

However.

In the face of Moby’s stormy offensive, Ross did not panic.

He looked up at Moby, his body suddenly looks like a piece of paper.

 

Moby is attacking Ross left and right with his sword energy but he is not able to hit him no matter how hard he tries.

 

Then,

Ross stabbed with his own sword and the stunned Moby tried to dodge but was too late as he was stabbed by Ross’ attack.

“This is… Kami-e (Paper Drawing)! How can you use Marine’s Rokushiki?!”

There are many different techniques that are similar to Soru, so even if Ross uses Soru, no one will be able to identify it but those dodging patterns are very familiar and there is no doubt that it is definitely Kami-e (Paper Drawing) of Marine’s Rokushiki(Six Power)!

Ross didn’t answer. With Kami-e (Paper Drawing)’s dodging ability, he moves with his sword and made a few attacks on Moby. He started the Distortion Fruit ability and twisted the two swords together. Turning them into a few sections of scrap iron.

Bang!!

Ross punched out and Moby subconsciously crossed his arms in front of him, and when Ross’s fist connected with his arms, a sharp pain suddenly came from them.

His two arms, under Ross’s Distortion Fruit ability, were directly twisted into a fried dough twist, covered with blood and bones and looked terrifying.

 

Several commanders finally awoke from their stupor and reacted, they all came forward to support the Captain. At the same time, they pulled their swords out one after another.

 

Buzz!

Ross’s arms jerked up and the ability of Distortion Fruit was fully launched. All the swords and fists that held them were completely stopped in mid-air, and then the power of distortion exploded.

 

All swords collapsed.

Ross stared indifferently at Captain Moby, who was shocked. He lifted his leg and stepped on him as blood and flesh scattered under his feet.

Several commanders who saw this were shaken by this scene, they felt chills on their backs and revealed fear.

Amidst the silence.

Ross slowly walked toward the wall on one side.

 

“Go and tell the high-level Marines who issued the order.”

“I didn’t want to become a pirate.”

“You forced me to be a pirate.”

Ross’s tone is calm and chilling.

Combining the tone with blood and gore in the place it seems to be giving the feeling of hell. The Marines all shuddered as if they had heard the whisper of a devil.

“Although right now I am just a insignificant nobody, and about whom maybe you wouldn’t care even a bit, but please remember what I said.”

“Your behavior today determines the future direction of this sea.”

“I hope that one day in the future, you would not regret the order issued today because by then everything will be too late.”

Bang!

When Ross’s voice fell, he had already reached the wall and he raised his hand and pressed it on the wall, and the area about two meters on the wall suddenly twisted and collapsed, then he jumped out.

 

There was only destruction remained in his wake and the sound of his voice that will reverberate in the ear of the marines that were there.
