Chapter 50: Fame Spreads Throughout the World, the Marines Are in Action!
At the same time.
The Money Pirates' bounty posters also spread with the News Coo, spreading throughout the world.
In the East Blue, countless people saw this bounty newspaper and were in an uproar.
Gathering in groups of threes and fives, discussing.
People realized, the East Blue was about to change.
Syrup Village.
"Miss Kaya, something terrible has happened!!"
Merry rushed into the garden holding a bounty poster.
The garden held too many beautiful memories of Kaya and Lister.
Now, Kaya would walk around the garden whether she had things to do or not. In her spare time, she would also personally plant some flowers.
Hearing Merry's shout, Kaya, who was planting baby's breath, stopped and looked at Merry!
"What happened? Why are you so flustered!"
"Something big has happened, Miss Kaya, look!!"
Saying that, Merry took the bounty poster and newspaper in his hand and placed them in front of Kaya.
Kaya looked at Lister's bounty poster and that string of numbers. She was stunned for a moment, then revealed a happy smile, saying: "Lister is finally going to be famous in the world!!"
"But, it's a bounty poster! He was directly given a 60 million bounty for the first time!
And, according to this, he's wanted for destroying a Marine base. So, next, he will be targeted by both the Marines and bounty hunters!"
"I believe he will definitely be fine!!" Kaya smiled faintly, then took Lister's bounty poster again and stared at it blankly.
Haven't seen him in days, he's still so handsome, and has an added trace of dominance.
Cocoyasi Village!!
"We're finished this time. Nojiko and Nami are both wanted, especially Nojiko, wanted for 50 million!! My god! That scared me to death!!"
"The crime she's wanted for is shooting a Marine Captain. I just read the newspaper, it says the 16th Branch Marine Base was destroyed by the Money Pirates, and not a single Marine there escaped, all were killed in action."
"Isn't the Marine 16th Branch the one where Captain Nezumi, who colluded with Arlong, was stationed??"
"That means, Nami and Nojiko chose to act against Captain Nezumi and the 16th Branch to completely eliminate our future worries!"
"It must be like that!! Ah, those two kids, Nami and Nojiko..."
"Nami is wanted, but she's been mixing around outside since she was young, she should be able to take it. But, this is Nojiko's first time out at sea! And she's wanted for 50 million. I wonder if she can handle it!"
"I hope Nojiko doesn't faint from the shock of this bounty amount!!"
"And that kid Lister! He clearly promised me he would protect Nojiko, but as soon as they went out to sea, she's wanted for 50 million.
He betrayed my trust. Next time I see him, I'll definitely teach him a lesson!" Genzo said, annoyed.
Good grief, he's taking the heat for Nami.
East Blue, Loguetown!
"Lister, huh?? Didn't expect such a ruthless person to appear in the East Blue.
Even Fleet Admiral Sengoku personally called to tell me to pay close attention!
I hope he doesn't disappoint me when the time comes."
Smoker stabbed a knife into Lister's bounty poster, muttering to himself.
Grand Line.
Alabasta.
"Lister? Didn't expect another talent to emerge from the East Blue, that weak sea. I wonder if he can be of use to me. Those who are not useful to me... will inevitably be destroyed by me."
On a certain red pirate ship.
"Snake Princess-sama, today's newspaper!"
Snake Princess Boa Hancock glanced at it casually and threw it directly into the trash.
New World.
Dressrosa.
"Fufufufu, another newcomer from the East Blue? Seems to have a bit of a strong aura."
Moby Dick.
"Gurarara, domineering aura exposed!!! Although he's green, it's already taking shape. I hope he can make it to the New World safely."
Wano Country, Onigashima!
"Domineering aura exposed? He's still wet behind the ears!" Kaido glanced at it, threw Lister's bounty poster away, and continued drinking.
Red Force!
"Domineering aura exposed? I wonder if he can grow!!
A genius who fails to grow... is useless, no matter how much potential they have." Benn Beckman muttered to himself.
"Beckman, what are you looking at?? Drink up!" Shanks shouted.
"It seems another incredible guy has appeared in the East Blue!" Beckman said.
"Oh? Who?" Shanks, his face red from drinking, leaned over for a glance.
"Lister? 60 million bounty, that's really a lot. What did this guy do? 60 million for a first bounty!" Shanks asked with a laugh.
"Seems he destroyed a Marine base!" Beckman smiled.
"Well, he's pretty capable!" Shanks smiled nonchalantly.
"Speaking of which, around this time, Luffy should be setting out to sea soon, right?"
"Yeah, soon!"
"Alright, enough chatting. Let's keep drinking!!"
Miandao Island!
Lister and the others were holding a banquet, celebrating the appearance of the bounty posters.
Inside a certain building in the city.
Someone glanced at Lister's and the others' bounty posters.
They directly picked up a Den Den Mushi and dialed a number.
"Marines??"
"Yes, this is Marine 19th Branch. What is it??"
"I hear you are looking for the whereabouts of the Money Pirates??"
"That's right. Do you have information about the Money Pirates??"
"They are currently on Miandao Island!"
"Miandao Island?? Are you sure??"
"Positive!!"
"Okay, if your information is correct, after I confirm it, I will send the 500,000 reward fee to you within a week!
Is it convenient to disclose your address?"
"The reward fee is not needed!"
After saying that, the person hung up the call.
...
After the dial tone sounded from the Den Den Mushi.
The Marine who answered the call immediately reported the situation to his superiors.
Soon, the entire East Blue, aside from Loguetown, all Marines were mobilized.
