Ghost Shark, but in the world of One Piece

Page 103

But, does Wang Lufei's life or death have anything to do with me?

After several unsuccessful attempts to persuade him, I had long since given up on helping others and started to respect their fate.

She glanced at the expectant hawks and Karp, and carefully considered her options.

The Navy cannot lose Garp, just as the 3D entertainment industry cannot lose Tifa, and the doujinshi world cannot be without Horhyah.

Then she suddenly said, "I suggest sending Admiral Akainu!"

Even you...

Garp was shocked and disappointed. His expression was extremely complicated as he recalled how he had saved him several times, as well as Specter's advice and hospitality.

The doves aren't in a good mood either. Specter was clearly the successor to the doves, but in the end, he still chose the hawks?

Sigh, hawks.

In contrast to them, Sakazuki and the others looked relaxed, with smiles on their faces. What a clear-headed navy! The higher-ups are almost falling out over a pirate. It's truly shameful.

Justice is not absolute, which means it is absolutely unjust!

“Of course, my suggestion is to capture it; there’s no need to kill it on the spot.” Ghost Shark lazily crossed his legs and said cryptically, “In any case, the Straw Hat’s Devil Fruit is still very powerful.”

Upon hearing this, Kuzan and the others, including Sengoku, breathed a sigh of relief, thankfully their thinking wasn't as extreme as the hawks.

Garp's expression softened slightly, but he still insisted, "I'll go myself. I'll definitely arrest them..."

Before he could finish speaking, the silver Den Den Mushi embedded in the conference room wall suddenly sounded an alarm.

In an instant, everyone present, except for Ghost Shark, turned pale.

Chapter 161 One of the strings in my heart snapped.

The Buster Call?!

At the crucial moment, someone launched a Buster Call?!

Sengoku couldn't sit still any longer and hurriedly called the navy in the communications department to confirm the location.

"The target is Enies Lobby!" The Navy stared in disbelief.

The Warring States period was also dumbfounded.

Ugh... is this really necessary for a couple?

Just because pirates burned their flag, you're going to launch a Buster Call in retaliation?

When others heard this unbelievable thing, their minds went blank for a moment.

This is so shocking!

Can carbon-based organisms really do something this amazing?

Why did you issue a Buster Order when a mere elite lieutenant general or general could have solved the problem?

Everyone was immersed in a silent atmosphere, their minds still reeling from the farce.

Although absurd, this crucial Buster Call also conveniently resolved the dispute between the two sides.

If we just kill everyone, there won't be any problem.

However, the effectiveness of the Buster Call is questionable. Nico Robin and Douglas Barrett were both survivors of the Buster Call.

Amidst this chaos, the Straw Hat crew has a fairly good chance of escaping.

However, this time Specter wasn't going to let it go. She looked at Garp with piercing eyes.

"Vice Admiral Garp, even without the Buster Call, would you still insist on 'arresting' the Straw Hat crew?"

The girl's words echoed in the room.

The conference room fell noticeably quiet, and the other generals dared not even breathe.

Crane winked at Ghost Shark, signaling her to be mindful of the atmosphere.

Tina frantically tugged at Ghost Shark's sleeve under the table, trying to pull her to her seat.

Kuzan stared blankly, Borsalino fiddled with his nail clippers, and Sakazuki fell silent as well.

Some problems are tacitly ignored by everyone, but the differences remain and will not disappear.

Asking Garp to arrest his own grandson is tantamount to tacitly allowing him to escape.

If they really wanted to arrest him, why not just send a powerful hawk?

After a long silence, Garp nodded calmly, his voice hoarse:

"Ah."

The hawks felt as if they had been shot in the knee.

The arrow was imbued with bitterness, anger, and powerlessness.

They were speechless with helplessness, their hearts aching as if being branded with a hot iron.

Even the most renowned heroes at the pinnacle of the navy have moments when they disregard justice for the sake of family.

Ghost Shark remained silent, then turned her gaze to Sengoku and asked:

"If there were no Buster Call, which suggestion would you have taken?"

At this moment, He suddenly clapped his hands and stepped forward to smooth things over, saying, "Alright, alright, let's stop the discussion here. There's no need to dwell on non-existent issues."

Sengoku stood up and began to arrange the execution of the Buster Order, his expression unreadable: "Vice Admirals Mole, Fire Mountain, Dogman, Onigumo, and Storoberry, execute the Buster Order immediately."

He did not answer Specter's question, but not responding was itself a response.

Ghost Shark sat down quietly, and the lieutenant generals whose names were called stood up one by one.

They hurriedly carried out the mission of the Demon Slayer Order.

Karp stared blankly out the window, then threw the half-eaten donut into the trash can.

His gaze swept over and accidentally met that of the ghost shark.

It was a look he had never seen before, filled with disappointment, self-mockery, and indifference—a complex mix of emotions.

The person in front of me seemed a little distant, exuding a sense of unfamiliarity.

With the problem eliminated and the Buster Call planned, there was no reason for the meeting to continue.

Tsuru and Tina exchanged glances and decided to try to persuade Specter after the meeting.

Just as the Warring States period announced the end of the meeting and the generals were preparing to file out, a series of rapid and forceful tappings on the table stopped everyone in their tracks.

Turning around, I saw Ghost Shark, whose face had turned as cold as ice.

She stood up, and her words were as piercing as polar ice and snow.

"From the beginning to the end of the meeting, there was one thing that made me incredibly angry..."

Ghost Shark surveyed everyone, his eyes blazing with fury, his voice low and menacing, clearly struggling to control his emotions.

"We've been debating whether or not to capture a special pirate, but nobody ever seems to care..."

Boom! The desk was kicked open by Ghost Shark, crashing and sliding to the ground, startling the Whale Slayer General across from him.

What followed was a roar of fury that lashed out at everyone's hearts:

"How badly are Colonel T. Penn, who chased after the train in tears?!"

A single question slapped everyone in the face.

Just because he's Garp's grandson, he can disregard justice; just because he has no connections, he can be ignored.

What kind of bullshit logic is this?

Ghost Shark turned around, kicked open the door, and left with a flourish.

This ridiculous emergency meeting made her feel like a string in her heart had snapped.

"If the prisoners I was originally escorting were released back into the world, I wonder how many more ordinary people would bleed and weep because of them!"

Even if my hands and feet are severed amidst raging storms, I will protect the tomorrow of innocent and kind people—no matter what!

T-Born, tears streaming down his face, foolishly chased after the train in the storm, before being struck by Zoro and falling into the deep blue sea.

Why can't they spare a single word of concern from such respectable people, whose words are so moving?!

What kind of shitty world is this?!

"Ah, it's Commodore Specter!" A pink-haired boy bowed in surprise and saluted. Upon seeing Specter's true appearance, he was momentarily stunned. "Good afternoon."

Ghost Shark's gaze was disdainful, his eyes filled with deep disgust. "Get out of my way!"

Coby, a self-proclaimed One Piece fan who always frowns and plays the role of a social conscience, always manages to throw out some amazing highlights from a seemingly fair and just identity.

He only did menial tasks, adding finishing touches and embellishments, and though he didn't do much, his fame reached the level of Garp's.

The essence of his behavior was to fawn over Garp, but the timing was quite dignified.

But compared to T. Penn, Coby was nothing but a stinking pile of dog shit.

The natural aura of authority startled Koby, who was stunned and stepped aside, while Specter walked straight ahead.

Having injured T. Poon and stormed Impel Down, while countless murderers trampled on Hannibal's head, Coby must still be admiring Luffy with shining eyes.

It's so touching it's disgusting.

What they consider justice is actually baseness at its core.

The Enies Lobby incident has begun, and it seems Ace will be captured soon.

Specter has lost all interest in taking up his post and catching thieves; there's only one thing he needs to do now.

Hard training!

The entire Deep Sea Fleet is undergoing intensive training!

The war at Marineford is about to begin, and she must actively prepare for it and do her best to protect everyone.

True compassion for life is not about stopping the fighting when victory is imminent, but about rigorous training day after day.

In addition, she hopes that the rigorous training atmosphere of the Deep Sea Fleet can influence other grassroots naval units.

Chapter 162 Justice as One Pleases

Headquarters, Tsuru's office.

Not long after the meeting ended, Tina caught up with Lauren Tina and pulled her inside.

"You're here, please have a seat."

Crane had obviously just returned as well, and personally made tea for Ghost Shark.

Tina, with a Pocky stick in her mouth, leaned against the wall, closing her eyes to rest.

Ghost Shark bowed slightly, but her expression remained unchanged. "Thank you, Grandma Tsuru."

A steaming cup of tea was pushed in front of the girl. He poured himself a cup, blew on it, and smiled.

"You're too honest, kid."

She shook her head, her tone gentle, "Don't become the second Sakazuki. The Navy Headquarters needs not only fighting and killing, but also human relationships."

"Prevent problems before they arise."

Specter crossed her slender legs in black stockings and twirled a strand of hair. "If we tolerate his invasion of Enies Lobby today, he'll dare to attack Impel Down tomorrow. That's how bastards are made step by step, and that's how justice crumbles little by little."

"Vice Admiral Garp is a smart man, but he loses his principles when it comes to family. Throwing Straw Hat Luffy into Impel Down for more than ten years might not be the best ending for him."

Of course, pushing through to Impel Down at this point is not an option.

There are too many hidden traps: a Revolutionary Army idiot on the 5.5th floor, the traitor Shiri Ame no Shiri, plus Blackbeard who is planning a sneak attack when the Navy is too busy to pay attention.

Magellan and others alone could not hold out.

Crane waved her hand and sighed, "It's just too cruel. Grandfather is a Marine, grandson is a pirate. Undeniably, it's unfair..."

Facade..."

"Ultimately, it's a problem with education. Garp's combat training is indeed good, but his academic and cultural education has been completely neglected."

"It's quite interesting when you look at it from another angle," Ghost Shark said calmly.

No matter how Wang Luffy looks at it, he's just an unlucky guy who got burned by those toxic teaching materials. Of course, those toxic teaching materials are the pirate Shanks and the bandit Dadan.

"Let's not talk about that for now." Tsuru rubbed his forehead helplessly. "As for Colonel T. Peng, we've checked, and he is indeed a very pure naval officer. Headquarters will not mistreat him."
