Raise your glass and ignite the world of One Piece

William and Karl set off to the royal city to deal with their own affairs.

Wayne began to search for Bonnie's traces in Port Joy based on clues from the Revolutionary Army.

It is a heavy burden to go all out to find people in such a port city with a huge flow of people.

All kinds of chaotic "sounds" can bring great mental pressure.

But Wayne did it anyway.

"Not really..."

After searching all over Joy Harbor, Wayne found no trace of Bonnie.

"The intelligence of the Revolutionary Army has not been updated. It seems that her skills in hiding her whereabouts have improved."

In desperation, Wayne had to buy a local map and search for nearby villages and towns.

Wayne acted alone and was very fast.

Coupled with the powerful tool of finding people, it didn't take long for Wayne to search the nearest villages and towns nearby.

"still none……"

Looking at the last remaining road on the map, he shook his head helplessly.

"As expected, we still have to go to the Royal City. I hope William and Karl go well."

Wayne set out on the road to the royal city.

But just halfway through, the phone bug in my arms rang.

Wayne took out the phone bug and raised his eyebrows.

It's Carl.

"Kaga!"

"Karl, you guys..."

"President!!"

Karl was panicked, confused, and an angry voice sounded:

"Something big happened!"

"what?"

"William, William..."

"What's wrong with William!"

Wayne was startled, and a bad premonition came over him.

"William's home was destroyed! Uncle Victor..."

The phone worm burst into tears, and Karl's crying voice came:

"Uncle Victor fell in the room, he, he was killed!"

"what!"

Emerald lightning flashed across Wayne's body.

"Don't move where you are! I'll be there soon!"

"Bah-"

The sound of wind and thunder flashed by, and Wayne's figure had disappeared.

In a secluded manor on the edge of the royal city, Karl gritted his teeth and hung up the phone, and looked up in the direction he came from.

"President..."

Unknowingly, this former vice admiral, who was at most their eldest brother in terms of age, had become their absolute backbone.

"Damn it! Who did it?"

Carl's eyes were red. He knew that Wayne had the magical power called "Knowing Color Haki" and was not worried that he would not be able to find them.

It's just that as a teleportation fruit user, he actually didn't put it to use again.

"William..."

Karl's figure disappeared on the spot and appeared in the room, kneeling beside William on the ground blankly.

William's face was indifferent and expressionless.

His eyes were also blank, bloodshot, and without focus.

But his shirt and chest were completely soaked.

Lying on the ground in front of him was a gray-haired middle-aged man in his 50s wearing a white coat.

This man looked [-]-[-]% similar to William, but his mouth was bleeding and his complexion was gray.

He is dead.

On his chest were ten wounds deep enough to show the bones.

The blood in the wound had dried up, and it was vaguely visible that the internal organs were broken.

This was killed by one blow!

"The president will be here soon. He will definitely find out who killed Uncle Victor!"

Karl grabbed William's shoulders with both hands, gritted his teeth and turned his body towards him:

“So, you must not collapse now, understand!

"You still have a big revenge to take!"

"revenge……"

William's dazed eyes slowly regained color.

Blood red color.

"Yes, revenge..."

He muttered these two words in a low voice, and firmly grasped the hilt of the sword at his waist with his right hand.

"Carl."

William lowered his head, and the low voice contained not anger, but endless regret:

"The president is right...

"If I could wake up earlier, even if it was only a few days earlier, my father would not..."

"Boom!!"

The sound of wind and thunder sounded outside the door, and in the blink of an eye, Wayne's figure appeared in front of William and Karl with the lingering sound of wind and thunder.

"President..."

"William, calm down!"

Wayne squatted down and pressed the gray-faced William's shoulder with one hand:

"Remember, keep looking forward!"

"President..."

William's blood-red eyes slowly cleared up, and tears welled up again:

"I hate myself!!"

He smiled miserably and covered his eyes:

"I will never have the chance to...obtain my father's forgiveness..."

"Snapped!"

Wayne slapped William and flew him away, and Karl next to him quickly teleported over to catch him.

"Then cheer up and don't let your father die in peace!"

Wayne ignored William who was stunned and stepped forward to check on Victor's body.

"This wound..."

Wayne frowned.

Judging from the condition of the body, Victor's death should have been one to two days ago.

And this wound is very strange.

“The ten wounds were obviously penetrated by pillars.

"But the tear marks and positioning are so weird..."

Various thoughts flashed through his mind, and Wayne thought about the weapons that could have caused such an injury.

"No, it's not a weapon, this is... a claw, to be precise, a tearing wound caused by sharp nails!"

Wayne had only seen similar wounds once.

Vice Admiral of the Navy Headquarters, traces of the battle in Dalmecia.

Dalmecia, a user with the ability of the Inu Fruit and Dalmatian form, is a strong physical expert who has been accustomed to maintaining the human-animal form since she was young.

His sharp claws caused such a wound when he killed a pirate in a certain battle.

The wound was deep and torn, something only the structure of human fingers and the sharp nails of beasts could achieve.

"In other words, this was definitely not done by a beast, but by an animal-type esper!"

But there are all kinds of strange people with animal abilities. Who are they and why did they kill Victor?

"President!"

William's voice sounded, and he heard Wayne's mumbling.

"A person with abilities?"

He appears to have regained consciousness now.

Wayne's slap made his nose bleed, but it also made him completely free from self-pity.

Then, it’s revenge.

"It's just a guess, but I'm [-] to [-] percent sure that such wounds are extremely rare."

Wayne nodded to William and returned his gaze to the strange arrangement of wounds.

"This is caused by some kind of physical skill... huh?"

His eyes froze.

"William, offend me."

Wayne reached out and pressed against one of the wounds. Inside was the shattered sternum.

"It's...'Navy Type [-] Fingergun'!"

William's expression changed drastically.

"It's the navy?!"

"No, it shouldn't be."

Even if Lieutenant General Dalmecia comes here, with his temperament, it is absolutely impossible to kill a pharmacist in the room like this.

Moreover, he prefers to use his domineering force and claws to tear directly instead of using finger guns!

"Wait, 'finger gun', 'animal type with claws'..."

"In addition to the navy, there are also institutions that master the Six Styles!"

A figure quickly appeared in Wayne's mind.

CP9, Rob Lucci!

"No, no, he is undercover in the Capital of Seven Waters, so..."

"CP8 appears in the Kingdom of Sobel, so it is not impossible for CP9 to appear in the Kingdom of Bliss!"

Wayne stood up and looked out the door.

"William, Karl, I'm probably sure who did it, but it still needs to be confirmed.

"You two bury Mr. Victor properly and see if you can find any clues from this room——

"Then wait for me here!"

"Boom..."

The sound of wind and thunder sounded, and Wayne's figure disappeared.

"William!"

Karl was excited and overjoyed:

"The president has a clue! The murderer will definitely be caught!"

"Ok!"

William took a deep breath and looked at his father's miserable body again, as if there were flames burning in his eyes:

"I swear to make the murderer and the organization behind him pay the price!"

He heard Wayne's words clearly.

The Sixth Form of the Navy is undoubtedly a powerful physical technique that is only circulated among the Navy Headquarters and the World Government's intelligence agencies.

Wayne was proficient in all six moves and even taught them the basics of a few moves.

What Carl learned was the "Land Kick" and "Finger Spear" in the direction of attack, as well as the "Moon Step" which is necessary for ability users.

William learned the "Lan Jiao", "Shaving" and "Moon Step" in conjunction with the swordsmanship.

However, their practice time is still short and they have not yet been able to successfully perform it.

"Karl, tell me, did your father think of me before he died?"

William knelt beside his father's body and gently arranged his blood-stained white coat:

"If he hadn't followed President Venn and saved his life, would he..."

"William!"

"Ok?"

"Uncle Victor, you must have remembered someone—

"But I don't know if it's you."

Karl stretched out his hand with a serious face and pointed at Victor's tightly clenched right hand.

Everyone was shocked by the injury on his chest and ignored it.

"That's...the key?!"
