Chương 965: Enlightenment

Esdeath, who was standing at the port, seemed to sense something as well. She suddenly felt a little uncomfortable watching Hancock going away.

After being used to the chirping sounds in her ears for a week, she was a little uncomfortable when it suddenly became quiet.

This week has been a relatively happy period for Esdeath.

The inner depression also dissipated.

The murderous intent in his heart began to subside.

Holding the hilt of the sword, I felt an inexplicable feeling in my heart.

Then he drew out his sword.

This time!

There is no sharp edge, but it is just like a sword in its sheath, with its edge hidden.

Esdeath seemed to have some feelings.

I seemed to understand something in my heart.

Suddenly the momentum became stronger.

The sharpness in his eyes faded.

I suddenly felt cheerful.

A gust of wind gathered on my body involuntarily.

The wind blew her hair into the air.

His right hand rested on the hilt of the sword.

Esdeath only felt that the world seemed to have become a lot clearer.

Everything around her was moving in her eyes.

The water drops continued to fall, leaving a dent in the stone below.

This made Esdeath seem to understand something.

Suddenly a voice sounded in my ears.

"Be strong and flexible, too much strength will break easily!"

Charlotte's words rang in Esdeath's ears.

"Congratulations, you have once again realized your true nature!"

Charlotte looked at Esdeath and smiled.

With approval in his eyes.

Charlotte, who was originally in the castle, suddenly felt the sword light around him tremble slightly, as if responding to something.

His observation Haki immediately spread across the entire island, sensing something unusual here.

Then I saw Esdeath.

Esdeath realized her true feelings.

Not far from Charlotte, the Red Earl was standing quietly by the side, looking at the father and daughter in front of him.

He was also attracted by the sword intent.

Looking at the father and daughter standing there.

The Red Earl suddenly raised his umbrella.

"I don't know since when, I seem to have fallen far behind Charlotte, and now I've been surpassed by the younger generation!"

The Red Earl looked at his umbrella.

There was a hint of confusion in his eyes, and then he became determined.

"Maybe I should regain that invincible heart!"

The Red Earl's eyes moved downward.

I saw a ring shining with gold on the finger of the right hand holding the umbrella.

Esdeath looked in the direction where Hancock disappeared.

I said goodbye silently in my heart.

If Hancock hadn't suddenly burst into her life, she might never have taken this step.

During this week, Hancock was like a volcano, breaking open Esdeath's cold heart.

It soothed the murderous aura in her.

Let her see that life is not just about killing, but also about joy.

Hancock brought her joy.

This is something that people around her cannot do.

Esdeath since she could remember.

Just kept killing.

Her murderous shadow is firmly engraved in the minds of those around her.

They were afraid of Esdeath in their hearts.

Even her younger brothers and sisters were the same.

Even now, Caesar still feels a little uneasy when he sees his elder sister frowning.

I didn't dare to look him in the eye.

If this is the case with Caesar, what about others?

Tesla didn't dare to offend the elder sister at all.

People like Sif and Julie who often follow the eldest sister dare not do anything excessive to her.

The same is true for other younger brothers and sisters.

They dare to act up in front of their father, but not in front of their eldest sister.

After seeing the eldest sister, everyone stood still.

Very respectful.

Esdeath hadn't felt anything before.

Now think about it.

It seemed that everyone around her was afraid of her.

Even my dad would become serious in front of me.

Esdeath frowned, then relaxed.

"It seems I need to put away my sword for a while!"

Esdeath turned her head, looked at her father, and suddenly smiled.

Charlotte hadn't seen this smile for a long time.

It seems that after Esdeath participated in her first battle at the age of eight, she was rarely seen smiling.

Charlotte also smiled.

"Looking forward to your next sword drawing!"

Charlotte patted Esdeath's shoulder.

Charlotte believed that the next time Esdeath drew her sword, her swordsmanship would probably not be inferior to her own.

The father and daughter stood in front of the harbor and quietly watched the rippling waves of the sea.

Behind them, there was a solitary Red Earl.

One month later!

Navy headquarters!

Malinvando!

In the lounge!

Zhan Guo and He sat opposite each other!

The two of them drank tea leisurely.

After a month of continuous busyness, the two finally had some free time.

"Akainu went to the South Sea, Aokiji went to the West Sea, Kizaru went to the North Sea, and Garp went to the East Sea. I believe that it won't be long before the situation in the four seas stabilizes, and then the navy can focus on development!"

Zhan Guo said, looking at the tea in his hand.

Even when taking a break, he never forgets his official duties.

"The situation in the world is not out of control yet. We just need to defeat those who show up. You don't need to worry about it!"

He refilled Zhan Guo's tea!

"Alas, the navy is leaking information everywhere now. I am also very anxious!"

Sengoku sighed.

"Has the World Government's funding been allocated?"

Crane asked, this was what she cared about most.

"Not yet. We have to wait until the gold from heaven is collected. The funds allocated this time are considered as extra military expenses for the navy, and we need to recalculate!"

Sengoku put down the tea bowl.

"It's fine as long as it can be allocated. But I heard that the World Government has increased taxes and asked all member countries to share the burden. I heard that many countries can no longer pay the Heavenly Gold!"

Crane asked meaningfully.

After hearing this, Zhan Guo fell silent.

He knew very well the fate of those who failed to pay the Heavenly Gold Country.

The world government will most likely teach a lesson to certain countries that cannot pay the heavenly gold.

But this lesson may very well lead to the destruction of the country.

This is to deter other member states!

Zhan Guo also sighed when he thought of the suffering that the people of the country who could not pay the gold to the sky would have to endure.

"These are none of our business!"

Sengoku sighed.

He also shook his head.

"Report!"

There was a sound of rapid footsteps.

The messenger quickly opened the door and handed a document sent by the branch to the marshal.

Zhan Guo looked closely.

"The Pirate Queen attacks the Navy transport ship, and Admiral Huoshaoshan is severely damaged!"

Warring States pupils shrank.

Red earth continent!

Marie Joa!

Pangu City!

The footsteps are hurried!

A CP0 quickly walked into the Five Elders' meeting room!

"My Lord, this is an urgent document from the first half of the Grand Line!"

cp0 placed the document in front of Satan's holy table and reported.

Saint Satan frowned, took a look, and then became furious!

"Damn Doflamingo!"

The document clearly stated that Beihai Tianshangjin had been robbed.

"Tianyasha Donquixote Doflamingo attacks the North Sea Tenjojin!"

North Sea!

"Fufufufufufufu!"

Doflamingo stepped on the heads of the CP organization members, and flames rose around them.
