was plundered clean, and all the ships were sunk... Marineford.

The active Admiral, Sora, slammed his fist on the desk.

"Who exactly is this Hitler ?! When did the Rocks Pirate Crew get such a troublesome ability user?!"

On his desk, a photo of Hitler , taken by a Marine soldier at great risk, was displayed.

The handsome youth clasped his hands, a faint smile on his face, his black hair fluttering in the wind. Sacred white light radiated from him, making his entire being appear solemn and dignified, like a Buddha.

"Adolf D. Hitler..."

Also in the office, Sengoku, whose military rank was currently only Vice Admiral, also held a photo of Hitler .

"I feel like I've heard that name somewhere..."

"What?!"

Sora looked up in surprise.

"Think hard! Sengoku, what's this kid's background?!"

Sengoku frowned in thought.

"Wait, don't rush. I've definitely seen or heard this face or name somewhere, but the impression isn't deep, and I can't quite recall it in a short time..."

Seeing that Sengoku was taking a long time, Sora let Sengoku ponder in the office while he went to see the active Fleet Admiral.

Hitler 's ability was too troublesome.

According to the Marine soldiers who returned from the battlefield, everyone who was on the deck or by a window, anyone illuminated by the Holy Light, was affected by the ability.

Conversely, those who stayed in the ship's cabins, responsible for the warship's power, were not affected at all.

Additionally, some bachelors who had no girlfriends, no wives, and maintained their purity, even if they stood on the warship's deck, were not affected.

"As long as they are illuminated by the light, they lose their will to fight... This full-coverage strike ability is truly terrifying..."

Even if they knew the evasion method through the accounts of the surviving Marine soldiers, this ability was almost impossible to counter.

They couldn't possibly create an entire army of virgins to exclusively fight the Rocks Pirate Crew, could they?!

Among the vast Marine force, how many had no girlfriends, no wives, and also maintained their purity?

What if they all died in one of the battles with the Rocks Pirate Crew? Where would they find a second batch?!

Finally, after deliberation, the Marine high command decided to temporarily halt the encirclement of the Rocks Pirate Crew, and at the same time, set a high bounty on Hitler .

Given the brutal competitive mechanism within the Rocks Pirate Crew, as long as Hitler 's bounty was sufficiently inflated, there would always be some daring individuals who would challenge him.

As long as they could eliminate Hitler through internal strife, the Marines would no longer face such a situation of being completely suppressed when dealing with Rocks... Hachinosu Island.

Rocks and his group, after defeating the Marines supporting Punk Hazard, successfully returned here.

After placing the research facility containing the frozen giants on the back of the Skull Mountain, the entire Pirate Crew immediately began their treasure distribution meeting.

All the plundered treasures were evenly divided into 16 shares.

The 14 core members of the Pirate Crew, excluding Hitler and Kaido, who were interns, including Rocks, each took one share.

Shiki received an extra share because he successfully brought back the frozen giants using his ability.

13 shares of the 16 shares of treasure had been distributed.

Afterward, Rocks, citing Hitler 's provision of crucial intelligence for this operation, also gave him a share.

Two shares of treasure remained.

Half of one share went to Kaido; this was actually the normal dividend for an intern.

The remaining 1.5 shares were distributed by Rocks among the many pirate foot soldiers who participated in the operation.

With the distribution complete, everyone returned to their quarters.

Hitler , carrying his share of the treasure, gazed at Stussy's retreating figure.

This woman actually didn't report to Whitebeard, or perhaps, the people in this Pirate Crew were already accustomed to the daily routine of mutual sneak attacks?

"Hey! Hitler , your bounty poster is out!"
