Grand Line.
A certain stretch of sea near the Sabaody Archipelago.
A small boat sped across the ocean at astonishing speed.
It seemed to be propelled by some powerful force as it raced toward the Sabaody Archipelago.
“S-Snake.”
“S-Hawk.”
“S-Shark.”
“S-Bear.”
“He is the target of your mission.”
“Kill him without exception.”
“This order was issued by the highest authority—”
“The Five Elders.”
“It must be obeyed.”
“Understood?”
The man leading them raised Garp’s wanted poster and placed it before the children.
He wore white clothing, and his face was covered by an eerie mask.
He looked as though he naturally belonged to the shadows.
No one could see his true face.
Mysterious.
Clearly, he was a member of the special organization directly under the Celestial Dragons—
CP0.
Before him stood four children.
Four children with faces so familiar that anyone who saw them would be horrified and retreat several steps.
The first child on the left was a little girl.
She had a head of white hair and an incomparably beautiful face.
Calling her appearance the pinnacle of beauty would not be an exaggeration.
Combined with her frosty expression, she carried an invisible air of elegance.
S-Snake.
Her appearance was identical to the childhood form of the Seven Warlords of the Sea—
Pirate Empress Boa Hancock.
It was as though she had been created exactly from Hancock’s younger self.
The second child on the left was a sharp-eyed boy.
His eyes carried double rings, like those of a hawk.
A close look would send chills down one’s spine.
On his back was an extremely sharp sword, as though it could pierce heaven and earth.
This boy’s appearance was exactly the same as the childhood form of the Seven Warlords of the Sea—
Dracule Mihawk.
S-Hawk.
He was practically a copy of Mihawk.
The first child on the right was a little fatty.
He had white hair, and two thick tusks protruded from his lower jaw.
They were heavy and beast-like.
A black belt was tied around his plump yet powerful body.
Combined with his sturdy physique, he looked as though he possessed strength capable of uprooting mountains.
At this moment, he was touching the boat with one hand, allowing it to race across the sea.
The holder of the artificial Swim-Swim Fruit—
S-Shark.
He looked exactly like the younger version of the Seven Warlords of the Sea—
First Son of the Sea, Jinbe.
“Very good, S-Shark.”
“At this speed, we’ll reach Area 24 of the Sabaody Archipelago in less than five minutes.”
The CP0 agent in charge nodded with satisfaction. Find the original chapter at g.com.
Seeing S-Shark’s Devil Fruit ability in action left him extremely pleased.
He had not expected artificial Devil Fruits combined with genetic cloning technology to produce such excellent results.
No wonder Vegapunk had confidently declared that this project would change the world’s power structure.
It might even eliminate the need for the Seven Warlords of the Sea entirely.
From then on, the Marines’ strength would reach perfection.
Originally, he had not believed it.
But now, it seemed true.
The four children before him exuded tremendous pressure.
And their completion rate was only around seventy percent.
If they reached one hundred percent and were deployed alongside the other Seraphim, they would absolutely possess the power to dominate the world.
Vegapunk had not lied.
All of it was true.
After seeing the Seraphim with his own eyes, he was certain.
His gaze shifted toward the second child on the right.
This child was massive.
Far larger than the other three.
He had bear ears, a fierce face, and curly hair, giving him a somewhat strange appearance.
Unlike the other children, he wore a black coat.
Pink paw pads could be seen on his hands.
They looked harmless.
But CP0 knew this ability was anything but ordinary.
In fact, it was terrifyingly powerful.
S-Bear.
The holder of the artificial Paw-Paw Fruit.
The childhood form of the Seven Warlords of the Sea—
Bartholomew Kuma the Tyrant.
The four children shared one common feature.
Each had a pair of black wings on their backs.
Like two-winged angels.
They appeared incomparably sacred.
This was also the reason they were called Seraphim.
Looking at the four children before him, the CP0 agent, who had originally lacked confidence, now felt immense surprise and excitement.
Just by appearances alone, these children looked overwhelmingly powerful.
They could be called ultimate weapons.
And more importantly—
They absolutely obeyed the World Government.
There were four authority levels in total.
Holders of the authority chip.Sentomaru.Dr.
Vegapunk, including his main body and satellites.The public rulers of the World Government—the Five Elders.
CP0 looked at the chip in his hand.
His emotions surged.
He no longer felt uncertain about the coming battle.
Beep-beep.
Beep-beep.
…
Lowering his head, CP0 looked at the Den Den Mushi in his pocket.
He reached in and answered the call.
The moment he placed the receiver near his mouth, the Den Den Mushi transformed into the face of a fat man.
There was a scar beneath its right eye.
“Hey…
is this CP0?”
“What’s taking you so long?”
“Hurry up and get over here!”
“Old Man Kizaru has already started fighting Mr.
Garp!”
“And right now…
his performance isn’t looking too good!”
“We need your support!”
“You brought the Seraphim, right?”
On the other end, Sentomaru was already roaring impatiently.
The Den Den Mushi reflected his agitation perfectly.
Its mouth opened wide as it shouted furiously, eyes filled with anger.
The CP0 agent, who had just been feeling confident, froze.
What?
Admiral Kizaru’s performance wasn’t looking too good?
What exactly did “not too good” mean?
Couldn’t he be more specific?
Was Kizaru losing?
Or was he being completely suppressed?
There was a huge difference.
At the same time, fear rose in CP0’s heart.
Was that old man truly so powerful?
Even a current Marine Admiral wasn’t his opponent?
That was terrifying.
For someone like that to leave the Marines was truly an enormous loss.
Feeling uneasy, CP0 turned and glanced at the four Seraphim behind him.
Only then did he regain some confidence.
With them here, he had support.
The confidence to confront Garp head-on.
“We’re almost there.”
“We’ve already reached the Sabaody Archipelago.”
“We’re heading to the core battlefield now.”
CP0 nodded slightly.
The Sabaody Archipelago was already before them.
The numbered mangrove tree marking Area 24 was directly ahead.
From here, reaching the core battlefield would take five minutes at most.
They would make it in time.
Even if Kizaru couldn’t defeat Garp or couldn’t take him down, once CP0 arrived with the Seraphim, every problem would be resolved.
Hearing the CP0 agent’s words, Sentomaru’s expression finally improved somewhat.
Taking a deep breath, he said,
“Hurry.”
“You need to understand that Dark King Rayleigh is also on this island.”
“If they meet up, our advantage will disappear completely.”
As though remembering something, Sentomaru hurriedly urged him again.
And he was telling the truth.
The CP0 agent did not refute him.
If two legendary figures joined forces, it would create a terrifying storm.
