Pirate's Swordsman

"Has the reputation level finally increased again?"

Looking at the attribute panel, Xia Nuo immediately focused on the most eye-catching column, which was the change in reputation.

From being famous to being famous all over the world, this is undoubtedly a huge improvement. The hero level and wind-controlling swordsmanship proficiency also increased a lot after this battle, almost comparable to his gains in the previous two months.

The rewards brought by the upgrade are also quite generous. At this moment, a treasure chest with a golden appearance is lying quietly in the backpack.

"Valoran's Golden Gift"

After reading the text prompt above, Xia Nuo couldn't help but look forward to it. The treasure chests he had received before had only two silver ones, and most of them were made of bronze.

Now that the reputation has reached this level, even the treasure chest rewards have indeed made a qualitative leap.

however

"I don't have the key. Isn't this a scam?"

After spending a long time, he couldn't open the treasure box, and there was no corresponding key information in the backpack. Xia Nuo couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Well, it seems that if you want to know what is inside, you have to postpone it, at least until the next time the hero levels up and gets the gold-level key.

So angry

After being depressed for a while, Xia Nuo finally regained his composure, turned off the attribute panel, lay on the bed, and began to reflect on the battle he had experienced a few hours ago.

This is also a habit he has now. Every time he fights a really strong enemy, no matter whether he wins or loses, he has to find a quiet place and think about it alone for a long time.

And over time, he did gain a lot of experience from it, which played a big role in helping him grow in strength.

To be able to defeat Doflamingo this time, the actual combat experience gained from these past summaries is definitely indispensable.

Of course, on the other hand, Xia Nuo's victory this time was actually partly due to luck.

It is still the year 1515 of the Hainan calendar. At this time, Doflamingo, although already very famous, has not yet reached the stage of awakening his Devil Fruit ability, and his knowledge and appearance are relatively average. Therefore, Shano can still fight head-on. Not falling behind from the start.

If we had changed to Tenyaksha seven years later in the original timeline, the ending would have been doomed from the beginning. The ultimate killing moves such as the Wasteland White Wave and the Divine Killing Bomb are something that Xia Nuo today cannot resist no matter what. .

His thoughts were floating. After a while, the summary and reflection on the battle was almost completed. Xia Nuo's energy finally reached its limit. After a brief wash, he took off his clothes and went to bed, covered himself with a quilt, and fell asleep.

While he was sleeping, the impact of this incident continued to ferment and gradually spread throughout the world.

Naval Headquarters, Marin Vando.

The large conference room on the top floor was now filled with senior generals of the navy. Their faces were not very good-looking, and the atmosphere was particularly depressing.

"Obviously four or five hours ago, we got the news that the two were going to war."

Sengoku sat in the main seat with a rare sullen look on his face. He stared coldly at the flying squirrel on his right and said, "Why didn't you report it to me until Doflamingo died?"

"This, this"

Under the scrutiny of the marshal, Flying Squirrel suddenly felt uneasy and hesitantly said: "We originally thought there was no suspense, but who knew it would be like this in the end?"

嘭

“No suspense”

Zhan Guo laughed angrily, couldn't help but slam the table, and shouted angrily:

"Short-sighted, I wonder if the so-called Xia Nuo is the fastest-rising super rookie this year. A big event like fighting Doflamingo has been reported to the headquarters, but you actually didn't do anything and just waited for the result. Watching the excitement”

"It's okay now. The Don Quixote family collapsed instantly. Dressrosa has already become a mess. Countless forces are eyeing that piece of fat. And our warship has just set off from Marineland."

"A great opportunity that could have been used to regain a large number of islands and help us gain a foothold in the new world was wasted by you, you know?"

,

The more Warring States thought about it, the angrier he became, but there was nothing he could do to save it. He could only pat his forehead with a headache, let out a long sigh, and murmured helplessly:

"Marijoa also sent a signal of dissatisfaction. After all, she is of Celestial Dragon blood. The impact of her sudden death is really too great."

After hearing this, Flying Squirrel immediately understood how much pressure his marshal was under now, and he felt regretful again, and couldn't help but lower his head.

There is no other way. He should shoulder the blame this time. Who made him the first among the senior management of the headquarters to know about this news and suppress it and deal with it coldly?

"never mind."

After a while, Warring States no longer wanted to dwell on the problem of his previous decision-making errors. He turned to look at the gray-haired female lieutenant general next to him and asked in a deep voice:

"Lieutenant General He, the time has come anyway, let's put aside the task of taking over the territory of the Don Quixote family. You should think about how to deal with the other party, the newcomer named Xia Nuo."

The three generals are all out of town for business at the moment and are not in the headquarters, so Lieutenant General He, as the chief of naval staff, is undoubtedly the one in the conference room. The person with the highest status other than the Warring States Period is the most suitable target for negotiation.

Lieutenant General He nodded slightly towards Warring States, and after a moment of consideration, he said softly: "From my perspective, there are only two situations in the subsequent handling."

"The first is to increase the intensity of the pursuit of "Swordsman of the Wind" Xia Nuo, increase the bounty, and send general-level combat forces to arrest him. As the king of the Shichibukai, Doflamingo is still a pirate , but on the face of it, he is the one who cooperates with our navy and is recognized by the world government, so if he is killed like this and we don’t take some big actions, it can’t be justified.”

Warring States nodded slightly, he also had this concern.

"The second option is relatively easy."

Lieutenant General He picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip before continuing to speak unhurriedly, "The position of the King's Shichibukai has been fixed for so many years. Now that Doflamingo is dead, there is an empty space. Come out one"

"You mean to temporarily give up the arrest of Xia Nuo and instead give him a position as the king of the Shichibukai"

When Warring States heard this, he immediately understood what He meant, and couldn't help but frown, "He's just a newcomer, and this guy also has a lot of blood debts for our navy."

"No matter how many blood debts there are, how can Doflamingo and the rest of the Shichibukai be any better?"

A trace of ridicule flashed in Lieutenant General He's eyes, but she concealed it well, and no one noticed it. She remained calm and said calmly:

"As for newcomers, can those who can kill Doflamingo head-on be treated as newcomers? Sengoku, don't forget, what was the original intention of establishing the King's Shichibukai?"

The conference room fell into silence.

After being silent for a long time, Warring States finally raised his head and rubbed his temples helplessly:

"Let's increase the intensity of the wanted search first. The Holy Land needs an explanation. I will seriously consider the matter of the vacancy of the Shichibukai Sea in the future."
