GROIKTP Chapter 350

The sound of waves crashing against the shore filled the air.

Chen Ye sat on a rock by the sea, patiently awaiting the arrival of the Marines.

Not far from him, Rayleigh the Dark King and Admiral Kizaru were nearby.

Kizaru was still nursing his wounds, his hands shackled with Seastone cuffs to restrict his movements.

As for the two Celestial Dragons, Chen Ye had locked them away in a hidden location. They could be used to make the Marines wary if needed.

You couldn’t blame Chen Ye for being underhanded!

For the sake of his mission, Chen Ye was willing to use any means necessary.

None of the three spoke.

Chen Ye remained calm, eyes closed, resting.

Despite being prepared, the upcoming confrontation was still fraught with danger for him.

With so many top fighters in the Marine Headquarters, Chen Ye needed to proceed with caution.

Gradually, the waves began to calm.

It felt like the calm before the storm.

After a long while…

“They’re here!” Rayleigh suddenly announced.

Chen Ye, who had been meditating with his eyes closed, immediately opened them.

Moments later, Marine flags appeared on the distant horizon. Slowly, the Marine warships came into Chen Ye’s view.

One ship, then two, three…

More and more warships appeared.

Eventually, there were too many to count.

A rough estimate suggested there were at least a hundred.

The ships formed a semi-circular formation, advancing toward the Sabaody Archipelago, effectively surrounding it.

Clearly, the Marines were determined this time; they had no intention of letting Chen Ye go!

“Mundo, the Marines are very determined,” Rayleigh said gravely.

Chen Ye smiled faintly. “Rayleigh, you still have time to leave.”

Rayleigh shook his head with a hearty laugh. “I want to witness a miracle!”

“Rayleigh san, I don’t think a miracle will happen today…” Kizaru chimed in.

As the three conversed, the Marine warships drew closer to the shore.

Chen Ye could even make out several prominent figures standing on the deck of the lead ship!

Fleet Admiral Akainu!

Admiral Fujitora!

Marine Hero Garp!

Each one was a significant figure!

Besides these top-tier fighters, there were also many tall and muscular vice admirals standing on the ships.

Even Doberman, who had once been defeated by Chen Ye, stood among them.

Seeing so many renowned fighters assembled, Rayleigh became more serious and remarked, “Mundo, the Marines seem to regard you very highly!”

He hadn’t expected that even the Fleet Admiral Akainu would personally come to deal with Mundo.

Upon seeing the Marine lineup, Kizaru’s spirits lifted.

“Rayleigh san~, I suggest you leave the island as soon as possible!” Kizaru advised.

Rayleigh ignored Kizaru and looked at Chen Ye.

Seeing that Mundo remained calm and composed, Rayleigh knew Mundo must still have a trump card.

And indeed, Chen Ye did have a trump card!

The Trident was his ultimate weapon!!

Although the Marines came in full force, Chen Ye was somewhat relieved not to see Admiral Aokiji.

Among the Marines, only Aokiji posed the greatest threat to him!

If Aokiji had also come, Chen Ye would have had to resort to his backup plan…

—

Finally, the Marine warships drew close and anchored near the shore.

Upon seeing Kizaru, Akainu couldn’t help but speak. “Borsalino, you look quite pathetic right now!”

Hearing Akainu’s mocking tone, Kizaru forced a bitter smile. “Fleet Admiral Sakazuki, be careful of Mundo. In these ten years, he’s grown into quite the monster!”

Akainu snorted and did not scold Kizaru further, his gaze shifting to Mundo and Rayleigh.

“Dark King Rayleigh!” Akainu said coldly. “A remnant of Roger’s crew should find a rat hole to hide in, not come out here courting death.”

This guy sure had a way with words.

Fortunately, Rayleigh was seasoned enough not to be provoked by a few insults.

He glanced past Akainu to look at Garp standing behind him.

“Garp, I never expected that in just twenty years, the Marines would make a brat like this their Fleet Admiral. Are you guys running out of people?” 

Chen Ye found this amusing.

Rayleigh was scathing without uttering a single curse word, much better than Akainu’s crude remarks.

Garp’s face showed a hint of embarrassment.

Akainu snorted again and said, “Sharp tongue, but you’re just a dead man walking.”

It was only then that Akainu’s eyes turned toward Chen Ye on the shore.

“Mundo, you’ve committed unforgivable sins. Surrender now, release Saint Rozwald and Shalria, and I’ll give you a decent death!”

Akainu’s gaze was fixed intently on Chen Ye.

Chen Ye smirked. “Red Dog, you brought all these weaklings here to scare me?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Ye’s eyes flashed with a fierce light.

An invisible force erupted from Chen Ye’s position, sweeping over all the Marine warships.

Instantly!

Countless Marine soldiers on the decks rolled their eyes and collapsed unconscious, falling onto the decks and into the sea.

Only Akainu, Garp, and those with strong willpower, like the generals, remained unaffected.

“Haki!!” Akainu’s face turned grim.

Even though he didn’t possess Conqueror’s Haki, he understood the damage it could do to ordinary people.

Severe cases could even result in brain damage, leaving the person incapacitated even if they regained consciousness.

Had he known Mundo possessed Conqueror’s Haki, he wouldn’t have brought so many regular soldiers.

“What powerful Haki!” Fujitora, the blind admiral, commented with a serious expression. “I never expected that after ten years, Mr. Mundo would become so strong!”

“Mundo!!”

Garp clenched his fists tightly, his gaze fixed on Mundo, his expression complex.

There was anger in his eyes, but even more regret.

Garp had once held great expectations for Mundo, even considering taking him on as a disciple.

But who would have thought Mundo was actually a pirate, and his Marine identity was just a disguise…

When Mundo defected back then, Garp had been heartbroken for quite a while!

“This… this is Mr. Mundo? His gaze alone is so terrifying!”

“Koby, are we really going to fight such a monster later?”

Behind Garp, two young men were trembling in fear, intimidated by Chen Ye.

Many others were similarly terrified.

Even Rayleigh was quite surprised.

“Mundo, you really are full of surprises!”

“Quite terrifying indeed, Mundo!” Kizaru remarked. “If you survive today, there’s no doubt you’ll have a place among the future rulers of the seas.”
