One Piece: Invincible Starting From The Fruit Of Words

Chapter 22: Chapter 22 The First Reward, 230 Million Baileys



"Send troops! We must eradicate Lucifer."

The hawk Vice Admiral, Ghost Spider, let out a low growl.

"A dangerous person like this, Marine will never allow him to live in this world."

"I am willing to lead the team! I'll take on this mission!"

"I would too!"

"Please count me in!"

Not only the hawk Marine Vice Admiral but also the dove Marine Vice Admiral joined the fight.

"Dauberman is a lesson from the past. Just sending a few Vice Admirals is not guaranteed to defeat Lucifer."

Crane Vice Admiral's flat voice sounded.

"Don't forget, Lucifer still has the ability to fly, and his escape skills are also top-notch."

As soon as the words came out, everyone looked at the photo on the screen at the same time.

Sure enough, they saw two demon wings growing on Lucifer's back.

Because the flashing flying sword was too conspicuous, they had all ignored it.

After viewing the photos, all eyes were on Admiral Kizaru.

If the Vice Admirals were unsure whether they could take down a flying Lucifer, the only one in Marine who had that ability was Admiral Kizaru.

Glitter has to be beaten with shimmer.

Being stared at by everyone, Kizaru had to put away the wretchedness on his face.

"It seems that the old man must go for a walk."

"Okay then, I'll leave it to you, Kizaru!"

Marshal Sengoku also gave the order at this time.

"The time for dispatching troops is set for tomorrow, so prepare yourselves."

"Okay, the old man knows."

Kizaru nodded, but he was truly troubled because this meant his vacation would be ruined again.

From what Sengoku meant, he was expected to work overtime this time, and Sengoku didn't plan to pay overtime.

"Hey, the old man's work is really hard. I really envy some people who can sleep well every day without having to work overtime."

Kizaru looked at Aokiji, who was sitting next to him, and noticed that when Sengoku called out Kizaru's name, Aokiji had already put on a blindfold and fallen asleep.

Because he knew that there was nothing for him in the future.

"The hunting mission is led by Kizaru. Crane, you are responsible for issuing Lucifer's bounty order!"

At the end of the meeting, Sengoku gave the final order.

"I see."

Crane Vice Admiral nodded.

......

On the endless sea, the sea breeze was blowing, and a pirate ship sailed quietly on the water.

Lucifer was lying on the bow of the boat, soaking up the sun, holding a glass of red wine in his hand, listening to music, living a very leisurely life.

"Well, the Kangtu red wine produced in 1452 is really good, with a long aftertaste."

Lucifer took a sip of red wine and nodded to himself.

This was the spoils he obtained from killing the pirates: a bottle of expired red wine over 50 years old.

It had been a week since the killing of Vice Admiral Dauberman.

During this week, Lucifer was rushing to Crescent Island.

With another two days' journey, Lucifer would arrive at Crescent Island.

"Cuckoo, cluck."

Just then, a flock of newsbirds flew over Lucifer's head.

When Lucifer noticed the newsbirds, they also noticed the pirate ship on the sea.

One of the newsbirds fell from the sky and landed beside Lucifer.

"You are really brave."

Lucifer raised his eyebrows and smiled, flicking his fingers as a coin shot out, landing perfectly in the money pot on the newsbird's chest.

Then, the newsbird took out a newspaper and handed it to Lucifer.

Lucifer took the newspaper and opened it, immediately noticing the bounty order within.

"After waiting for several days, it finally came out."

This bounty order clearly displayed Lucifer himself, and the photo captured him casting the Eight-foot Qiong Gouyu.

In the photo, Lucifer spread his demon wings, summoned endless flashing flying swords, and floated in the sky.

How handsome and striking his pose was, full of Haki and power.

"I have to say, these reporters' photography skills are really good!"

With such a handsome picture of him, Lucifer felt no shame in holding them accountable for secretly taking pictures.

"It's just that the bounty is a bit low."

Lucifer looked at the reward amount on the bounty order and felt a bit dissatisfied.

"The Devil, Lucifer, has a bounty of 230 million Baileys. He has committed heinous crimes and shows no regard for life or death."

He had killed a Naval Headquarters elite Vice Admiral, plus thousands of Marine soldiers, and the reward was only 230 million.

No need to guess; Lucifer knew that Naval Headquarters must have suppressed his bounty amount.

In the Grand Line, a pirate's first bounty often represents his potential.

The higher the amount, the greater the potential.

However, if the bounty were set too high, it would appear that Naval Headquarters was incompetent, thus losing face.

According to Lucifer's record this time, the bounty set by Naval Headquarters should have exceeded at least 500 million.

But that was impossible.

Since the establishment of Marine, there had never been a pirate whose bounty exceeded 500 million for their first bounty.

What Lucifer didn't know was that the 230 million bounty was the result of much discussion within Naval Headquarters.

The bounty originally proposed by some Marine advisors was 100 million Berries, which was finally raised to 230 million Berries by Crane Vice Admiral.

Lucifer was deemed too dangerous, and if the bounty were too low, it might cause the branch Marine to underestimate him.

At that point, if casualties occurred, it would be too late to regret.

"Forget it, let's keep it low. It won't be long before the amount goes up."

Lucifer threw the bounty order into the sea.

He had no hobby of collecting his bounty orders, and he was not on his own ship now.

"Now that I've become a pirate, it's time to form my own pirate crew."

"First of all, I need to find a few capable crew members."

Lucifer had a few targets in mind, and these were the crew members he was looking for next.
