BXBX NOVEL Chapter 92 - Back To Marine Headquarters
Fleet Admiral Office,
Not anyone can meet Fleet Admiral of the Marines but Blaize has this privilege. Walking into the office, he saw Sengoku. To his surprise, there was another person inside the office, newly promoted Admiral, Kuzan.
Seeing him, Sengoku squinted his eyes a little and nodded. As soon as he saw Blaize, he knew Garp didn\'t exaggerate. His strength really reached the threshold of Admirals.
The most shocked one is Kuzan. He could feel a sense of danger radiating from Blaize and it means, the latter\'s strength is close to his. \'It\'s not even two years, how did he develop his Haki to such extent.\'
"Should I wait outside, Sengoku-san?" Blaize asked.
"No, come and have a seat. You came at the right time, we were discussing important." Sengoku gestured for him to sit.
Seating next to Kuzan, he spoke. "I\'m feeling nervous sitting next to an Admiral."
Hearing his words, Kuzan didn\'t show any reaction while Sengoku reprimanded him. "You brat, drop the act as we both knew how strong you have become.
Considering your strength, you may have been promoted to the ranks of Vice-Admiral if not for your stubbornness."
"It\'s in my nature." Blaize shrugged.
Sengoku waved his hand and spoke, "Let\'s get back to the topic. Blaize, we were discussing the Speed pirates, have you heard of them before?"
Blaize turned serious and replied, "I know about them but not in detail, just their bounties and names."
Speed pirates were not in the original timeline but in the current timeline, they are considered as one of the Great Pirates of the sea. And, they have a territory of their own in the New World.
The Speed Pirates originated from Grand Line and were lead by their captain, \'Speed\', whom the pirate crew is named after. As for why the Captain is called Speed, is because he\'s a devil fruit user who ate Soku Soku no mi[Speed-Speed fruit].
Aside from him, there\'s another man in Speed pirates who\'s as strong as Speed, his brother, Luke. He\'s also a devil fruit user who ate Kilo Kilo fruit.
Both of them are very dangerous as they had a bounty of over 1 Billion, individually. With over 300 pirates under their command, they are really one of the Great pirates of the New World.
A pirate crew is called a Great pirate when their Captain or someone in their crew\'s bounty crosses the 1 Billion bounty mark.
Unlike in the original timeline, the concept of Yonko hasn\'t been introduced yet. All the strong pirates of now called \'the Great pirates\'.
If Blaize isn\'t wrong, in another one or two years the World Government will introduce the concept.
Blaize knew why the World Government has to grant the Yonko title. It is to create chaos and at the same time, balance the power structure of the New World.
The Yonko concept will definitely create friction among the pirates as none of these Great Pirates want to be treated inferior to others.
The result will be, they will fight among themselves and destroy each other. A great plan from World Government to contain the pirates growing in the New World.
It\'s just Blaize doesn\'t know when it will happen. Right now, the New World is extremely chaotic with dangerous pirates roaming them with no rules.
Musing, Blaize looked at Sengoku. There should be a reason why the latter wants to talk about them.
Sengoku spoke: "A month ago Speed Pirates attacked a kingdom affiliated under World Government and killed many nobles along with the countless citizens.
Though the kingdom nobles aren\'t Celestial Dragons, they have high status. So, we sent an Admiral at that time. But what we didn\'t expect is total defeat.
The Speed pirates sunk three Marine battleships and even heavily injured the former Admiral who\'s forced to retire from the Marines."
Anger could be seen on Sengoku\'s face, "After the battle, the Speed pirates were staying low so we couldn\'t find their location. Just yesterday, we confirmed their location.
According to the intelligence, their ships were spotted near Greenhill Island. I want them apprehended or killed, I don\'t care about the process.
I am appointing you both for this task. Blaize, listen to Kuzan\'s orders on this one."
Since Sengoku finished his speech, it\'s time for him and Kuzan to leave the office and plan the next course of action. At that moment, Sengoku spoke again.
"Blaize, tell Rosinante to come and meet me."
"Sure"

Coming out of the office, Blaize spoke. "I thought I could laze around for a few more days before visiting the New World, it\'s not possible anymore.
Kuzan-san, congratulations on becoming an Admiral. When are you going to give me the treat?"
Kuzan still has a lazy attitude, he looked weirdly at Blaize and spoke. "First, remove the honorifics. Just Kuzan will do as you are as strong as me."
Blaize didn\'t dare to take the compliment, "There\'s still a gap between us."
Without minding his words, Kuzan spoke again. "As for the treat, I don\'t remember us being too familiar.
Let\'s talk about the Speed pirates, I am planning on confronting them in two days. I will inform you once the preparations are complete. Be ready!" Yawning a little, Kuzan walked away while waving his hands at him.
