NOVEL NEXT Chapter 41: Paying attention
That time , many miles away in the unsettled ocean, roared 5 ships which sailed at moderate speed. The striking greenish blue and the dark streaks stood out at sea anywhere it sailed and its momemtum and detter force brought intense dread to anyone who sees it. The winds blew vigorously through the huge white sails of the ships, pushing it fiercely onwards, which continuously causes small instance splashes to occur in the sea.
The blue sihouetted bird stood out proudly on the ship's sail which carries and ease the hearts of many and the name embedded under it, is the banner and honor of that many persons affliated with.
Marine
Right now the 5 navy ships are heading towards a certain area unhurriedly, the many soldiers on board did their duties or looked towards the sea calmly. The expressions on there faces were indifferent but flashes of contempt swept their eyes repeatedly as they look out at sea ahead. The size of the ship leading way, was way different than the 4 following behind, the whole body of the ship was almost thrice the size fo the rest.
Many sails were prevelant and the cannons at the side of the ship was not just cannons but even artillaries were scene which gave off a dangerous aura. The ship colour was of a yellow hue which brighten the surrounded atmosphere and filled the air with its vibrancy. At the base front of the ship, there was an oval shaped head with yellow hair flowing back, in a backwards position with a sword ran through it.
This is a warship.
Warships are the mainstays that the navy uses in the grandline or new world, the power and speed it hold is very strong and they are generally used to contend with those big pirates at sea. For a warship and a fleet to appear is these waters it is every suprising which cause any pirate here to panick and flee in fear almost instantaneously.
On the warship they are not many persons that could be scene, but all who are currently on it is of the elite camp.
"How long until we reach the West Sea," a figure said as he took a huge puff from the cigar.
At the forefront of the ship, there sitted a somewhat normal height man, who seemed to be about late twenties to early thirties.On his shoulders there rested a navy white cloak and under it he wore a plain suit with a striking colour tie.He has yellow flowing back hair and a terrible vertical scar can be seen on his left eye. In his mouth, was a cigar which continued to fill the air around him with smoke even to the point where his sunglases is masked with the smoke residue.
If Joshua were to see him right now he would instantly recognise the individual.
This is Cancer.
But right now he is not the future Vice admiral who would be shocked at how the Whitebeard pirates surface the sea, after being hidden under the bay of Marineford.
Now he is just Rear Admiral.
"In about 2 or 3 days we will be entering the the West sea, Sir," the navy officer replied in a military salute.
Cancer frowned a little as he drew the cigar from his mouth, he then looked at the sea ahead and thought for a little bit then said, "speed it up."
"Yes sir,"
"It best to finish this early and head back to the grandline, because it has been very chaotic these days," Cancer thought as he took another puff from his cigar with a none caring attitude.
For Cancer, a rear admiral to be appear near the West sea, there is only one explanation for this.
Vice admiral Odamo must have sent him.
After hearing about the death of Colman, he immediately acted by directly sending a rear admiral to the West sea. Even though by doing this brought shame him and navy, there is no other way, cause commodores levels simple cannot be an opponent for Joshua and his crew .So a rear admiral must be sent to supress and capture them simple because he can never allow Joshua to enter the great route after the navy has suffer so many loses. Therefore, he must stretch is hand and thats where Cancer come into play.
Receiving the order from Odamo , Cancer was ver displeased and distainful at such request, Who is he , he is rear admiral a powerful navy who contends with pirates whose bounty are over 100 million baileys and to be sent to the West se to deal with a little pirate he is very much ashamed and unwilling. But he did noy dare to defy Odamo orders , cause he could hear the supressed anger in his voice . Also not carrying out an direct order from your superior would be detromental and the consequences one have to bare is not light.
So Cancer took the mission upon himself without a second thought.
With that being said, now a powerful line up of 4 small ships and a warship wth a rear admiral stationed on it is sent after wicked and sinful pirate Joshua to completely wipe him out. You must know with such a line up, even a pirate with 100 million bailey will feel tremendous pressure in contrast to Joshua who has not even stepped into the great route.
One can instantly tell, that the navy is not playing around.
Even though I'm unwilling... " Cancer stopped talking as he looked on the rewards posters in his hands with murderous intent in his eyes.
.... they must die,"
Chaos
dead or alive
93 000 000
Guzen - The psychopath
dead or alive
75 000 000
Demon Sheriff Laffitte
dead or alive
35 000 000
If you were to add up Joshu nd his crew bounty it would be over 200 million. With such a bounty, your bascially a little known in some parts of the grandline. So for a pirate group who hasn't even entered the grandline to have such high figures over their head it is a little scary. So Cancer murderous aura is expected and so even if he didn't get assign for this, the navy would never let such group enter th great route on way or another. Because its sure that there prestige would definately take a blow.
....
Somewhere in the grandline on a small takky building, there sat an individual who was around 7ft and on his head he had on a black cap and because of the shade of the cap you simple cannot determine the man's expression. In his hands was a sheet of paper with some information which he has just read through.
"Are you sure this information is true," the hoarse voice rang out in the quite building becoming the only source of noise.
"Yes Captain, its full proof I have just received this information from our intelligence source," person in a green shirt replied calmly.
The person did not reply but retracted his gaze from the green shirt figure then looked on the paper infront of him again.
The man was silent for a few minutes and the expression on his face was calm but he was somewhat shocked in his heart. What did he just read, a rear admiral Cancer and a fleet has gone to the West sea. Any person with some common sense can easily pinpoint some information out of this.
What this means is that, there is a pirate or criminal at the West sea that the branch navy officers simple cannot deal with and a rear admiral is being sent to solve the immediate crisis. These powers are always busy and for one to taken from his busy schedule to go to there, the threat level of the person is not small.
"Keep an eye on this," the man in the black cap answered after a short period.
"Yes Captain.."
Not just him but many in the grandline have gotten the news and so has he was suprised so were they. Rear admirals navy powers who deal with terrible pirates with bounties over a 100 million had to move to the 4 seas to solve a threat. This is no small matter, cause the inability of the navy has just been portrayed a little and now not even a little West sea pirate or criminal they can't handle.
With such news, its bound to spread even if the navy tries there best to go there secretly. For how can such big movement of the navy, how can such thing go undetected under many persons intelligence network eyelid. Now many are paying attention to the West sea, even though they did this, noone thought that the person they were after would come out alive under the offense of the navy. Cause the line up is a little terrible...
5 ships
A school of elites....
and rear admiral ....
Many pirates at the grandline would have to run if they saw such a fleet in comparison to a small West sea individual.
