"Vice Admiral Garp! The bodies have been buried."
Garp was still in the military area that had become ruins. The bodies of the dead soldiers inside had been dug up and buried in graves by other Marines.
With so many bodies outside, it would easily cause a plague, and who knows how many more people in the city would die.
"Did anyone nearby say they saw anything?" Garp nodded and asked.
"We heard that someone covered in fire broke in, and then ran out covered in blood. No one saw his face clearly, but based on the initial path, it's very likely to be Douglas Bullet, the former leader of the young soldiers squad," a Marine Major General said to Garp.
"Douglas Bullet?" Garp had seen some information about the army when he came, and had a slight impression of this young boy.
Although he was only eight years old, he had already made a name for himself on the battlefield and received the highest level of rewards, but even so...
Could he have the strength to kill everyone in a military area?
That Douglas Gray wasn't weak, and there were thousands of soldiers. It's hard to imagine that the eight-year-old Bullet could kill so many people, what kind of monster would he be?
"But covered in fire... Could he have eaten a Devil Fruit?" If that was the case, then it was possible. After all, a good Devil Fruit can greatly increase a person's strength.
But why would he do this?
Could it be related to a Devil?
Since they are called Devils, they should be able to do basic things like entice people, right?
After all, Bullet wouldn't suddenly feel like killing all of his former comrades, would he?
But no matter what, Bullet has committed the most unforgivable crime of betrayal. Before getting more information about Devils, Garp decided to start investigating from Bullet.
After all, this is a World Government member country, and also an area that the Marines must protect. After suffering such a disaster, it's impossible for him, as a Marine Vice Admiral, to ignore it.
And Garp faintly felt that Bullet might really have something to do with Devils.
This time he came representing the World Government, and had great power. He could order not only the Marines, but even CP. With CP's intelligence system, he believed he should be able to find Bullet quickly.
However, just as Garp issued the order and was walking around the city to take a look, he suddenly saw a 'person'.
This city was originally another World Government member country. The Jaltzburg Kingdom captured it, so it was still under military control. There were few people on the streets, and most of them were broken and ragged, clearly showing they had been through war.
In one of the streets, Garp saw a person wearing a black robe and with a slightly bloated figure walking to the end of an alley, and then jumping more than ten meters high, onto a four-story building.
Then he ran forward, and the direction he was going was similar to the direction Garp came from. Garp frowned.
Although he didn't know who it was, wearing such clothes at this time, and rushing to the military area where the destructive event happened, capturing him would definitely be the right thing to do.
Shave!
Garp's body disappeared instantly. The next moment he appeared was very close to the black-robed person. At this time, the black-robed person clearly sensed someone chasing from behind, and suddenly increased his speed.
The Marine Six Styles' Shave refers to moving at high speed by rapidly stomping on the ground dozens of times in an instant to generate explosive reaction force. From the enemy's perspective, it looks like disappearing.
And Garp's Shave is at the top level in the entire Marine force. In just a little while, although the black-robed person increased his speed, he was still not as fast as Garp.
"Hey, let me see who you are!" Garp directly appeared behind the black-robed person this time, grabbed the black robe he was wearing, and yanked it off the 'person'!
"?!"
However, when the appearance under the black robe was revealed, Garp was greatly surprised, because it was not a person at all, but a green, lizard-like upright creature. At this moment, he looked at Garp who was close at hand, opened his mouth, and directly spat out a large amount of flames.
The flames brought high temperatures as soon as they appeared, rushing towards Garp like a spinning fire snake. He wanted to dodge, but seeing that there were civilian houses behind him, he couldn't help but punch forward, and with a bang, he scattered the whistling flames.
"Little Demon Dragon?" Garp tentatively said the name of the Devil in front of him. There was such a Devil in the Marine's information, and some of it was information that only Admirals had the authority to read.
Although Garp wasn't an Admiral, he had classmates who were Admirals, especially Zephyr himself had dealt with this Little Demon Dragon, so Garp had been interested in this Little Demon Dragon for a while.
However, after Dressrosa, he seemed to have disappeared. He didn't expect to find his trail in the Jaltzburg Kingdom.
Little Demon Dragon, the son of Shendu, one of the eight Demon Lords. His own strength is not strong, but he has a big background. Does his appearance here have something to do with that 'Zero'?
Zero is also a Demon Lord, could Zero be Shendu?!
The Marine Headquarters had thought of this possibility. Now, seeing Little Demon Dragon appear in the Jaltzburg Kingdom, Garp felt it was a good opportunity.
"Damn Marines again." Little Demon Dragon stood on a high building, and after seeing the Marine uniform on Garp, he said disgustedly, "When did the Marine Headquarters start managing our Devils' affairs? I haven't attacked your King again."
Last time in Dressrosa, Little Demon Dragon attacked King Riku because he wanted to steal the Shikon Jewel shard. Zephyr appeared and repelled him.
"Since when is there a rule that Marines can't manage Devils?" Garp was in a good mood after seeing Little Demon Dragon. He couldn't help but laugh, "You have your own bounty just like pirates, although The Black Order is responsible for Devils and monsters, that doesn't mean we at the Marine Headquarters will condone evil."
"Little Demon Dragon, bounty of 630 million Berries. There are probably not many pirates on the sea with such a high bounty!"
"Trouble..." Little Demon Dragon said, "You are a bunch of nosy, useless humans! All of you, go to hell!"
Boom!
He spat out a mouthful of flames again. The flames were brighter and hotter than the hasty flames he spat out before. After a year of training and fusing four Shikon Jewel shards, even if he didn't transform into a monster, he would be stronger than he was when he appeared in Dressrosa!
