Chapter 171 - Chapter 171: R Skill

"Why is this happening?"

"A small island like Dressrosa actually has two Admirals?"

Tied up with ropes by navy marine officer, nearly a hundred pirates under Jack's command sat on the ground, sighing helplessly.

They always knew their boss's temper; he never backed down from a fight, no matter who the opponent was.

But who would have thought that docking the ship today would lead to such a disaster? Not only were there two Admirals on the island, but also a blind man with strength equal to an Admiral.

Three Admirals… how could they fight that?

If he had known there were so many powerful people on this island, he would have jumped ship, let the currents carry him away, or even let a Sea King eat him, rather than follow Jack to this island to show off.

"What do we do now?"

"What else can we do? If Captain Kaido doesn't come to save us, we'll be sent to Impel Down," one pirate said with a crying face.

Meanwhile…

"Wow, a pirate with a bounty of one billion Berries, how scary."

Kizaru walked up, looking at Jack, who was beaten to a bloody pulp and barely conscious, twitching on the ground. He couldn't help but smirk, "Daring to dock alone, that's quite brave."

As he spoke, he glanced at Vivian and Fujitora standing nearby, thinking that just these two could have taken Jack down without any help from Momousagi.

But…

Who is this blind man, and why is he so strong?

When did Vivian find such a powerful subordinate?

It's worth noting that two years ago, when Blackbeard attacked Impel Down, it was Fujitora and Magellan who teamed up to injure and drive him away. However, Fujitora gave all the credit to Magellan in the report, so Kizaru still didn't know about Fujitora's existence.

As for why he didn't want the credit…

It's simple. Under Vivian's influence, Fujitora no longer aspired to become an Admiral.

The Admirals are just the Celestial Dragons' dogs. If promotion meant obeying such scum, he'd rather stay under Vivian, enjoying good food and fun while upholding his own sense of justice.

Why not?

Gordon naturally took out his camera and started snapping photos.

A soldier nearby asked, "What should we do with this guy?"

"What to do? Send him to Impel Down, of course."

Then he turned to Vivian, "You worked there for two years, right? You must know a lot of people there. Why don't you take him?"

Vivian: "…"

He was about to agree when suddenly…

[Option 1: Nod and agree to escort Jack to Impel Down. (Reward: Random special ability from another dimension x1)]

[Option 2: Refuse firmly, citing injury, and suggest Kizaru for the escort. (Reward: Random skill experience +1)]

Would escorting Jack to Impel Down be dangerous?

Then I definitely won't do it.

Vivian immediately shook his head, putting on a very weak expression, "I… cough cough… was just injured by Larvin, and my wounds haven't fully healed… cough cough… I think Admiral Kizaru should handle the escort…"

"Me?" Kizaru pointed at himself in surprise.

"Yes, a pirate with a bounty of one billion Berries should be escorted by someone with at least a Vice Admiral rank. What if something goes wrong and he escapes? Cough…"

Kizaru: "…"

From the way you slashed that shockwave earlier, it seems like you're faking it.

Kizaru squinted, thinking to himself.

Looks like I'll have to investigate this kid more thoroughly when we get back.

[You chose Option 2 and received the reward: "Baking" experience +1]

"Alright, let me handle the escort. I'll take this guy and then head back to G1 Headquarters across the sea…"

With that, he directed six Marines to drag Jack's massive, heavy body off the ground.

"Aside from Doflamingo, the other Warlords of the Sea have almost all gone into hiding. Finding those guys on the sea will be very difficult."

Kizaru added this reminder, giving Vivian and Fujitora a meaningful look before putting his hands in his pockets and muttering phrases like "So scary," "A subordinate of a captain can injure a pirate with a bounty of 1 billion Berries with one slash," and "This strength is just too ridiculous," as he walked away, disappearing down the road to the port.

This left Gion, Gordon, and a group of marine officer, all turning their gaze to Fujitora.

"Hey, mister… what's your name? The next issue of the Navy Supernova Magazine is about to come out. Would you be interested in an interview?" Gordon asked.

Fujitora: ???

…

A few days later.

"Headquarters has already been informed about our operation. This is the news sent by the News Coo. When you get back, you'll probably be promoted to Captain permanently."

Gion stood at the bow of the warship and tossed two documents to Vivian.

Vivian took them and glanced at them, then pondered silently.

"A Captain's salary… seems to be about 1 million Berries a month, right?"

"I heard you made quite a bit of money by implementing a labor system in Impel Down. Why would you still care about the salary?"

"Why wouldn't I care?" Vivian pouted.

The profits he made in Impel Down were quite limited. In over a year, he had saved up only about 400-500 million Berries, most of which went into building Kensamia or improving the food in Impel Down.

Five hundred million Berries… would that be enough to live comfortably after retirement, along with his pension?

He wasn't very confident.

It's worth noting that despite reaching such a high level of strength, he wasn't thinking about climbing higher or joining Luffy to change the world and explore the secrets of One Piece. Instead, he was always thinking about how to retire…

He was truly the epitome of cowardice.

"We're almost at G1 Headquarters."

Tashigi said, looking ahead, then waved her hand, signaling the Marines to bring up Doflamingo, who was shackled with Seastone cuffs.

"Headquarters said they would put him on trial and then take him to Mary Geoise. Who knows what his final fate will be."

As she finished speaking…
