Chapter 173 - 173: Garp Arrives at Water 7 "Ara ara~" "They really went overboard..." At the ruins of Enies Lobby, Aokiji stood with a serious expression, staring at the seventeen burning words still flickering in the air. No one was allowed to approach this place anymore. Those who had previously tried to put out the fire had already left. Standing on the water, Aokiji reached into the sea, his deep voice ringing out, "Ice Age!" The sound of rushing water filled the air, followed by the sharp cracking of ice. Under Aokiji's freezing power, the entire sea around Enies Lobby instantly turned to ice. But despite the freezing cold, the seventeen burning words still flickered vividly. Seconds later... Suddenly, the fire burned through the ice, and the massive flaming words began to sway once more! Although their intensity had weakened, they still refused to go out. Seeing this, Aokiji frowned deeply. He hadn't expected the flames to be this strong. He had assumed that his Ice Age would be enough to put them out easily, but reality proved him wrong. Taking a deep breath, he unleashed his power again. After several rounds of freezing, the flames were finally extinguished. "What kind of fire is this..." Aokiji muttered, deep in thought. --- Water 7 Vice Admiral Tsuru was busy inspecting the passengers on the sea train. Luckily, there weren't too many people, making the process relatively easy. With the combined efforts of the Marines and the World Government, every single person on board was checked. Yet, Vice Admiral Tsuru found nothing unusual. "Vice Admiral, could it be that this person wasn't actually a passenger on the sea train?" a World Government official speculated. "We can't rule that out for now. But everyone we've checked so far is just an ordinary person—nothing suspicious." She then turned to the official. "Has there been anything strange happening at Enies Lobby recently? Any unusual people or incidents?" The man was a former chief judge of Enies Lobby, assigned by the Five Elders to assist her. He was highly knowledgeable about the island's affairs. "I'm not sure, but Spandine might know something—after all, he's Spandam's father," the judge replied, shaking his head. "Spandine?" "He was only the previous CP9 commander, and Spandam's status in Enies Lobby wasn't that high..." Vice Admiral Tsuru frowned. "Vice Admiral, from what I know, over the past few decades, Spandine and his son have infiltrated nearly every part of Enies Lobby. Now, every department on the island has their people in it. Spandine wasn't just furious because the island was destroyed—he was enraged because his son, along with decades of their efforts, was wiped out in an instant." The judge spoke slowly, his voice carrying weight. Hearing this, Vice Admiral Tsuru's face showed shock. So Enies Lobby had basically become Spandine's personal domain? She fell silent, sighing inwardly. The World Government was falling apart at the seams. Even the island meant to represent absolute justice had been completely compromised... As she was lost in thought, the distant sound of water splashing caught her attention. She looked up and saw Garp's warship slowly entering the port of Water 7. "Garp? Why is he here too..." Vice Admiral Tsuru was puzzled at first, but in the next second, she realized what was going on. "Have we found out where the Dream Exploration Team is?" she asked her adjutant. "Yes, we have... They're currently... at a villa hotel... throwing a banquet..." the adjutant reported hesitantly. Vice Admiral Tsuru opened her mouth to speak but found herself at a loss for words. Ryuen was a member of that unit, but even so, this wasn't the time to be celebrating... Couldn't they see that the Marines and the World Government had just been publicly humiliated? "Take me there," she said with a frown. "Garp must have come for them too. Sengoku probably sensed something was off." "Alright, Vice Admiral Crane." The assistant immediately led Vice Admiral Crane to the center street of the shipyard island. ~~~~~~ At the villa hotel, the Dream Crew had now fully relaxed and enjoyed themselves. It was halftime, and Ryuen was lying on the grass while Daisy was giving him a muscle-relieving massage. Daisy was using Ryuen to try out her new massage technique. "Ah~~~" "So comfortable, Daisy, your technique is great. Worth 200 Berries..." Ryuen closed his eyes, groaning in pleasure. Upon hearing this, Daisy's face instantly darkened. Was her skill really only worth 200 Berries? "So... Captain, when will you pay me the 200 Berries?" Daisy stopped, crouched in front of Ryuen, squinted her eyes, and softly asked. "Daisy, you know my Berries are with Nami. You can get them from her later. For now, give me a 400 Berries massage," Ryuen said, still not opening his eyes. "Daisy, don't listen to him. He doesn't have any Berries with me anymore. He spends all his salary on extras every month," Nami said casually from a distance. "Ah?" "Wait, that's not right?" "Nami, I'm sure I still have a few million with you!" Ryuen immediately shot up and said. "Not anymore. You've spent it all. There's not a single Berry left," Nami replied calmly. "I..." Ryuen was left stunned. "Hehehe, Captain Ryuen, does this mean you now owe me 200 Berries?" Daisy said with a cold smile. "Hehe, Daisy, it's just 200 Berries. I'll pay you back next month. For now, give me a 1000 Berries package," Ryuen said and lay back down on the grass. Daisy slowly stood up, clenched her teeth, and then stomped heavily on Ryuen's back, one step at a time. "So you want a 1000 Berries package, huh? Well, this is your 1000 Berries package!" "Ah~~~" "So good~~~" Ryuen felt the pressure on his back and nearly drifted off to sleep from the comfort. "Who's that dog barking outside!" At that moment, Kuina jumped up, quickly drew her sword, and sent a non-Haki slash flying toward the door. "Boom!!" The villa door was blasted open by Kuina's strike. The Dream Crew looked over and saw several Marines standing at the door, looking shocked. "Hahaha~~~" "Vice Admiral Garp, Vice Admiral Crane, what brings you two here?" "Come on in, come on in, you arrived just in time. We're having a party!" Ryuen quickly moved over to the two old guys, laughing as he grabbed one of their hands and led them into the villa. It wasn't until they reached the yard that Garp and Vice Admiral Crane finally reacted. "Bastard!" "Ryuen, were you planning to take us out and inherit our fortune?" Garp shouted angrily. "Ah?" "How could that be? Even if I was, I wouldn't be so obvious about it. The attack earlier was from Kuina, you should go after her," Ryuen quickly explained. Garp and Vice Admiral Crane scanned the area. They saw the rest of the Dream Crew sitting quietly, eating snack. --- You can read 10 Chapters ahead on my pat reon.com/GMadman
