Chapter 57: Chapter 57 Landing In The Capital Of Seven Waters, Cp9 Appears
The first half of the Grand Line, the capital of Seven Waters.
A pirate ship flying the devil's flag appeared from the sea and finally docked at the shore port.
"Look, it's the flag of the Nether Pirates."
"That's right, it's the demon Lucifer!"
"He actually came here!"
"The latest bounty order shows that Lucifer's bounty exceeds 500 million!"
"If you can take his head, I'll die happy!"
The port wasn't just occupied by the Nether ship; there were also many pirate ships, gangsters, and bounty hunters around.
The capital of Seven Waters is a world-renowned shipyard, and many pirates and bounty hunters come here every day to build ships, buy ships, and repair them.
After seeing Lucifer appear, some pirates were filled with fear, while some bounty hunters were filled with greed.
Suddenly, countless murmurs erupted from the crowd, and many eyes with hidden intentions swept over Lucifer and his crew.
"Captain, it seems that our reputation has already spread."
Cavendish stood at the bow of the ship, holding a rose, and said with a narcissistic smile.
"It's just a bunch of small fry. They're weak and pitiful, but they have big ambitions."
"Pathetic fools!"
Enel opened his eyes, lightning flashing in the depths of his pupils.
How could the eyes and comments of the people around him escape his Observation Haki? Enel had already seen through their intentions.
"Do you want to deal with them?"
Baby5's thigh turned into a Gatling gun, ready to strike at any moment.
"No need. They're not even worth our attention."
If there was a target worth hunting, Lucifer wouldn't hesitate to take action.
But with his Observation Haki, he sensed that the surrounding pirates and bounty hunters were weak.
The strongest among them had a bounty only around 50 to 60 million.
Even if they were to be hunted, Lucifer would only get a few thousand killing points.
With just a few thousand points, Lucifer found it beneath him to take action personally.
"If there are idiots who want to seek death, we'll give them a ride."
"If not, forget it."
Lucifer shook his head.
"Yes, Captain."
Since Lucifer had given the order, the three of them—Enel, Baby5, and Cavendish—would naturally not object.
In the Ghost Pirates, Lucifer's orders were paramount.
After that, Enel and Baby5 went to the capital of Seven Waters to purchase supplies, while Cavendish stayed behind to guard the ship.
Lucifer, on the other hand, wandered alone.
The capital of Seven Waters was said to be an island, but to Lucifer, it looked more like a ship.
It was a giant ship, shaped like a fountain.
Due to frequent tsunamis, the residents had transformed the island's structure into its current form.
The news of the Nether Pirates' arrival in the capital of Seven Waters spread quickly throughout the small town.
The residents, already aware of Lucifer's notorious reputation, were filled with fear.
Bloodbaths at Crescent Island, the destruction of entire countries, and all kinds of evil deeds—Lucifer's crimes were infamous.
With the help of the Marines, Lucifer's image in the world was akin to that of a bloodthirsty maniac.
After hearing the news, the residents of the capital quickly returned home, tightly shut their doors and windows, and dared not step outside again.
In a bar, in a secret room, several figures gathered.
"Luci, Lucifer has landed in the capital of Seven Waters. Won't he interfere with our mission?"
"Probably not. He's just a rookie and won't know the secret of Pluton."
"To eliminate potential threats, we should capture or expel him. It would be the safest course of action!"
"No, the government has issued orders not to engage with Lucifer."
"Besides, he's different from ordinary rookies. He's very strong. We alone aren't a match for him."
The leader, Rob Lucci, shook his head.
They were CP9—agents carefully trained by the World Government. Since they were young, they had received the harshest and most severe training to become ruthless killing machines.
Especially Rob Lucci, who was the strongest member of CP9 since the formation of the World Government 800 years ago.
If they were to make a move, ordinary rookies would be defeated in an instant.
But Lucifer was different. He was the monster who defeated Marine Admiral Kizaru, and CP9 wouldn't be able to match him.
The World Government and the Marines had already issued orders. Neither the Marines nor outside agents were allowed to take action against Lucifer.
No matter what he did, they had to turn a blind eye.
For now, neither the World Government nor the Marines wanted to risk a conflict with Lucifer and lose valuable manpower.
Lucifer had entered the capital of Seven Waters, casually wandering the streets. He eventually came across a dilapidated house, which served as the base for the Franky family.
Activating his Observation Haki, Lucifer locked onto dozens of auras inside.
"Boss Franky, I heard that a big pirate has come to the island. If we capture him, we'll get rich."
One of the younger members said to Franky.
The Franky family were dismantlers by trade, but they also worked as bounty hunters on the side.
Occasionally, they would hunt pirates for bounties to sustain their daily expenses.
"Stupid! That monster isn't something we can handle. We'd better find another target."
Another member cursed, taking out a bounty order.
The pirate on the reward order had a bounty of 20 million Baileys.
"Well, you're right. Though I'm feeling super today, I don't want to provoke that monster."
Franky struck his signature pose, twirling his arms.
At that moment, a powerful aura suddenly appeared in the room, instantly engulfing everyone inside.
