The horrific screams of “Ahoho” continued as the newly formed Black Silk Pirates were robbing a Celestial Dragon in the Sabaody Archipelago.
“Big Sister is so mighty!
This smelly pig is so fat!”
Sadi-chan said as she looted Saint Charlos’s collection.
“Captain Sister, I found two great swords!”
Rebecca picked up two rapiers and showed them to her sister.
“Darling, there are boxes of jewelry here.”
Xiao Wu began dressing herself up on the spot, determined to win her heart.
Domino stepped on Saint Charlos’s neck with her high heels: “Skip the introduction that you’re a Celestial Dragon.
The Marines have to call me Mom, and your Lord Imu is nothing more than my mount.”
Her shocking words caused Saint Charlos, whose neck was pinned under her foot, to desperately try to reprocess this relationship web in his head.
Domino gave him no chance to figure out the connections, continuously whipping the Celestial Dragon beneath her feet while shouting wildly:
“Call me Mom already!”
The sharp crack of the whip, accompanied by her signature charming chuckle, made the Celestial Dragon beneath her cry out in pain, begging, “It hurts!
It hurts!”
Seeing this, Cavendish nodded in respect and turned away, clearly wanting no part in this chaotic disaster.
Domino had only one thought in mind: [Rather than being hunted by the Donquixote Family and pirates, I’d rather be pursued by the World Government and the Marines.
After all, the former takes your life, while the latter just locks you in Impel Down.]
Amidst her confusion, she noticed an attendant behind her holding a small box.
Without a second thought, she knew it was a Celestial Dragon’s toy—a Devil Fruit.
She stepped forward and snatched the box in one swift motion:
“What kind of fruit is this?
Report to me right now!” Asking for the type first whenever encountering one was a side effect of having eaten the wrong fruit before.
“You bastard…
How dare you humiliate…
Saint Charlos!”
Domino was displeased by the response.
Instantly accelerating, she kicked him right in the face, sending him rolling onto the ground face-down, knocked unconscious.
Domino looked back at the terrified servant, who shook his head repeatedly in terror, indicating that he really didn’t know.
She had no choice but to turn her gaze back to Saint Charlos, whose rear was sticking up in an indecent posture facing Domino.
“Damn it, what terrible luck!”
After cursing, she realized she had used vulgar language.
Annoyed, she rushed forward, driving her heel straight into his rear through his pants.
The unconscious Saint Charlos let out an uncontrollable, agonizing moan, his whole body spasming uncontrollably.
“I’ll ask one more time, what kind of fruit is this?”
Saint Charlos, despite being a Celestial Dragon, suddenly snapped awake and blurted out without stuttering:
“It’s the Whip-Whip Fruit!
It was meant as a reward for a meritorious Marine!”
Recalling her memories, Domino remembered that this Whip-Whip Fruit eventually fell into Staff Officer Tsuru’s hands and became the ability of her granddaughter, Rear Admiral Kujaku.
“Then I’ll take it on behalf of the Marines.
After all, they haven’t paid my salary for months, so consider this an advance payment.”
“Damn pirates, don’t let me catch you…”
Unwilling to listen to his groveling barks, she twisted her heel and abruptly pulled her foot away.
This series of actions made the Celestial Dragon twitch all over and let out a horrifying screech.
Immediately following that was Domino’s silencing kick, sending him right back into unconsciousness…
Looking back at her sisters, all laden with spoils, she announced: “Sisters, we’re done looting!
Let’s retreat quickly!”
With that, she didn’t hesitate to lead her sisters in escape, the entire process taking no more than five minutes.
Ten minutes later, Marine Admiral Aokiji arrived at the scene.
Looking at the unconscious Saint Charlos, he casually created a large amount of ice to freeze the wounds all over his body.
Standing up, he looked over at Domino, who was sailing out of the harbor not far away: “Little girl, you’ve really caused your teacher a huge headache!”
Aokiji could guess the general situation, but as a Marine Admiral, he had to protect his own student.
So, he chose to wait until the victim woke up and pointed out the culprit before giving chase.
Poor Saint Charlos remained unconscious for a long time before finally waking up.
He was stunned for a moment upon seeing the Marine Admiral.
After pondering for a moment, he cautiously spoke up:
“It was a female Marine who attacked me, a young blonde woman, claiming to be your Marines’ mom…”
Aokiji stood there with black lines on his forehead, suddenly feeling an urge to guide the Celestial Dragon in front of him to accurately identify the fleeing culprit.
“The Marines are the fighting force of the World Government, we don’t have a mom!”
Hearing this, Saint Charlos finally put his mind at ease.
“Since the Marines don’t have a mom, what are you waiting for?
Hurry up and capture them!”
“Who specifically is the culprit, what do they look like, and who are their accomplices?”
Aokiji’s barrage of questions angered Saint Charlos.
“How could I remember so clearly?!
I only know they are pirates.
Capture them all and execute them!”
Thinking it wasn’t enough to vent his anger, he added loudly:
“Bring that blonde woman back alive.
I want to make her wish she were dead, suffering through all kinds of tortures!”
Regardless of how incompetently enraged the Celestial Dragon was, or how lazily Aokiji slacked off, Domino’s villainous deeds were made public by the World Government.
Carried by News Coos, newspapers publishing her crimes flew across the world, quickly spreading her evil deeds far and wide.
A fierce argument broke out inside Marineford!
Zephyr slammed the table and shouted in rage: “Headquarters should cancel the bounty poster!
Are you issuing a bounty for our own undercover agent?!”
Sengoku’s face darkened: “But her actions this time were truly excessive.
We can’t easily answer to Mary Geoise!”
“You are the Fleet Admiral, what explanation do you owe him?!”
Zephyr glared at Sengoku, forcing him to make a choice.
“Since when do Marines performing a mission have to look at the Celestial Dragons’ faces?” Vice Admiral Garp chimed in from the side, fanning the flames.
The room full of Marine officers chose to remain silent.
Sengoku knew this touched upon the long-standing resentment between the Celestial Dragons and the Marines, and failing to handle it properly could cause widespread discord.
Just as he was in a dilemma, Headquarters Staff Officer Tsuru pushed open the door and entered, bringing the Celestial Dragons’ latest demands.
“The Gorosei want Domino to go to Mary Geoise and personally apologize to the Celestial Dragon Saint Charlos, otherwise they will never forgive her misdeeds.”
After saying this, she looked at the high-ranking Marines present.
Knowing the gravity of the matter, Zephyr was the first to voice his stance:
“No matter what, she is my student.
If someone must be held accountable, I am willing to take the blame in her place.”
Aokiji chose to remain silent…
Borsalino acted nonchalant:
“Ooh, it’s been a while, and yet she’s caused such a massive scene.
This is going to be tricky!”
Sakazuki immediately declared:
“Such bandit behavior brings shame to the Marines’ name of Justice.
She should be dismissed from the Marines first.”
“Wahahaha!
I think it’s no big deal.
When we have time, we can capture her and ask for details then.”
Staff Officer Tsuru felt somewhat displeased in her heart, but she couldn’t show it.
None of the Marines present cared to appease the Celestial Dragons.
After careful consideration, Sengoku ordered: “Since the Celestial Dragons specified capturing the bandit alive, we must comply.
Therefore, Admiral Zephyr will issue the bounty poster, and Vice Admiral Garp will carry out the capture.”
The brows of the Marines present relaxed, and they all looked at him with admiration, instantly clearing the tense atmosphere in the room.
As the Sabaody Archipelago incident continued to ferment, the World Government’s arrest warrant was issued.
Morgans held the report: “Tch!
Those Celestial Dragons have shit for brains!
This isn’t even worth the price of my newspaper.”
Far away in Dressrosa, Trebol waved the bounty poster: “Young Master, that Domino is finally wanted!”
Doflamingo held the newspaper, cursing with black lines on his face: “Doesn’t this equal humiliating me?”
Sitting on the bow of a Marine ship, Ain held the bounty poster: “I’m so worried about Domino.
I hope nobody goes to arrest her.”
Binz stepped forward: “This is the best method Teacher could come up with.
Domino will probably understand Teacher’s difficult position.”
The hotel owner waved a stack of wanted posters: “Shuraiya Bascùd, come look!
Here’s a job to make some money!”
The bounty hunter named Shuraiya Bascùd took the poster and looked at it for a moment: “The World Government has lost its mind.
Who would risk their life for 1 Berry?”
He casually set Domino’s bounty poster aside.
The bounty poster that fell onto the ground read clearly:
WANTED
CAPTURE WANTED
Domino Domino
$ 1 Berry
Marine…
Meanwhile, the wanted Domino was standing at the bow of the ship, directing Sadi and Rebecca in pulling the sailboat.
Dressed in black stockings and high heels, Xiao Wu proactively served her juice and handed over the latest newspaper.
Holding the newspaper, Domino couldn’t stop trembling, moved to tears:
“I finally have a bounty poster too!
This is proof of my strength, proving that I am also a powerhouse!”
