Chapter 28
The Polite Lieutenant General Rezo
He actually felt a huge threat from a fifteen-year-old boy.
Who is this boy?
What is your background?
Are they from a special race, or are they Devil Fruit users?
In the blink of an eye.
Lieutenant General Rezo considered many things, but received no answers.
He thought for a moment, then smiled gently and asked respectfully, "Young man, I am Lieutenant General Rezo, the head of the G-4 branch."
"What's your name?"
As they were talking.
Rezo glared at the civilian marine next to him and hissed, "Young man, you've solved the huge problem of the Ten Rat Pirates, so hurry up and brew him the best tea in my office!"
"Also, bring up the finest pastries fresh from the kitchen."
"Don't neglect our distinguished guests!"
These words were spoken.
The surrounding navy personnel looked like they'd seen a ghost.
Is this still the same old-fashioned and serious Lieutenant General Rezo?
But soon.
Some of the quick-witted navy personnel figured out what was going on.
The only thing that could make the rigid and serious Lieutenant General Rezo become so smooth is this young man, forcing Lieutenant General Rezo to take him seriously!
"I'll go make some tea!"
"Should I go and check on things at the kitchen?"
Let's go together.
"I'll go boil some water."
The navy soldiers all dispersed.
on the chair.
Zhun glanced at Lieutenant General Reizo and chuckled, "Observation Haki?"
"Haha, it was just lucky that it awakened; I can't use it in battle," Lieutenant General Rezo replied with a smile.
Zhun nodded slightly, without saying anything.
Among those who have awakened dual-color domineering aura, 99% remain at the beginner stage.
It's difficult to improve one's career in a lifetime.
Clearly, Lieutenant General Rezo was also that kind of person.
Although he awakened Observation Haki, it could only enhance his senses and was difficult to use as a weapon in battle.
"My name is Junichi Uchiha."
Junichi slowly opened his mouth and got down to business: "I took care of the Ten Thieves Rat Pirates. They're all on the ship, not one of them was lost."
"We came here hoping to collect the bounty."
"Also, exchange all the pirate crew's supplies for me into Berries."
Rezo immediately nodded: "Of course, no problem."
Not long after.
Then the navy brought tea and fine snacks.
Rezo offered him some snacks and tea, and after chatting about their origins, he politely rose and said, "Excuse me, I need to go and count the heads of the Ten Thieves Rat Pirates."
"Of course." Zhun nodded slightly.
"Please wait a moment," Lieutenant General Rezo said politely, then walked out of the hall.
He secretly wiped away a bead of cold sweat.
Sitting in front of Zhunyi just now felt like sitting in front of a ferocious beast; I couldn't sit still at all.
Until we walked out of the hall.
Lieutenant General Rezo breathed a sigh of relief as the thorny feeling in his back subsided.
"Come on, show me the heads," he ordered.
"Yes."
One of his men led the way to the dock.
On the dock.
Eighty-three headless corpses lay on the ground, emanating a strong stench of blood.
The front.
The bodies were those of Captain Cooper, First Mate Dustin, and other key personnel such as the Second and Third Mate.
hiss!
Lieutenant General Rezo couldn't help but gasp.
All the members of the Ten Thieves Rat Pirates had the same wounds; they all died from decapitation.
and.
There were few signs of a fight on his body.
This means they were killed in one shot.
"Lieutenant General, take a look at this." A subordinate pointed to the car next to him.
"Um?"
Vice Admiral Reizo looked over and saw the weapons of the Ten Thieves Rat Pirates on the cart.
The most striking feature is a cracked shield.
"Dustin's alloy shield?" Lieutenant General Rezo exclaimed in surprise after taking a look. "It was actually cut in two?"
He knew the special nature of this shield.
It can withstand artillery shells head-on without taking damage.
Even the swordsman's "Iron-Cutting" technique struggles to leave a mark on it.
"What a powerful slash!"
Rezo approached to take a closer look and was immediately shocked by the cut on the shield.
It is perfectly flat and smooth as a mirror.
One can imagine that for the swordsman who cut through this shield, it was as easy as cutting through a block of tofu.
"Was this done by that boy?"
Lieutenant General Raizo thought of Junichi Uchiha in the hall and couldn't help but gasp.
This 15-year-old boy's swordsmanship is simply amazing!
In a short time.
His evaluation of Junichi rose to a new level.
"Lieutenant General, we haven't found Cooper's sword, Ghost Eye," his subordinate reported.
"Yeah?"
Rezo was not surprised by what he heard.
He already had a guess about where the ghost had gone.
"Never mind the ghost eye for now. Have all the goods on the ship been inventoried?" Lieutenant General Rezo asked.
His subordinate immediately reported: "The initial inventory shows a value of 37 million Berries, with the final value fluctuating by 1 million Berries."
Pirates are all a bunch of poor bastards.
They spend their money as soon as they have it, rarely keeping any.
The fact that over 30 million could be found on the Ten Thief Rat Pirates' ship is largely thanks to their recent robbery.
"Let's round it up to 40 million Berries in cash," Lieutenant General Rezo ordered.
"yes!"
His subordinate glanced at the lieutenant general in surprise, but did not express any doubt.
He trusted the lieutenant general's judgment.
This boy, who calls himself Junichi Uchiha, deserves to be fawned over like this.
"The rest is up to you." Lieutenant General Rezo patted his subordinate on the shoulder and turned to return to the hall.
Behind him, his subordinates and the soldiers around him raised their hands in salute.
……
In the reception hall.
After enjoying the snacks and tea, Junichi took out the knife care kit he had scavenged from Cooper.
He drew the demon sword, Oni-no-Mitsu, and slowly applied oil to it.
"Sorry, it took a little time..."
Lieutenant General Rezo returned at that moment.
He saw Junichi maintaining his ghost eyes, a seemingly ordinary scene, yet his pupils contracted sharply.
It was as if I was witnessing something unbelievable.
"Lieutenant General Reizo?" Junichi asked, puzzled. He suddenly stopped speaking and looked up.
"Haha, sorry, I was daydreaming just now."
Lieutenant General Rezo smiled awkwardly, cold sweat pouring down his forehead, while he inwardly cursed wildly.
Is this some kind of demon sword?
The Great Sword Demon Eye, in the hands of the boy before him, was as docile as a domestic dog.
It has no trace of bloodlust, ferocity, or eeriness.
The crimson lace patterns on it, however, resembled real flowers, making them vibrant and captivating.
This further confirms how terrifying the teenager was.
Lieutenant General Rezo wiped his sweat, sat down nervously, and thought to himself, "A swordsman?"
"No, even a swordsman cannot tame a demon sword of the Great Grade Sword level."
"Could it be a great swordsman?"
Thinking of this, he glanced at Zhunyi again.
With black hair and black eyes, and youthful features, he looked only fifteen or sixteen years old.
Lieutenant General Rezo hesitated.
In theory, only a great swordsman can tame a demon sword of the Great Grade Sword level.
But isn't a fifteen-year-old great swordsman a bit outrageous?
Is he the reincarnation of an ancient sword saint?
Lost in thought.
A subordinate carrying a box jogged over, bowing and saying, "Excuse me, the goods have been tallied and exchanged for their equivalent value in Beta."
"It's right in the alley."
"Junichi-kun, would you like to take a look now?"
Upon hearing this, Junichi gently applied the last bit of knife oil.
He put down the knife, smiled, and nodded: "Open it."
"Excuse me." Lieutenant General Rezo's men placed the box on the table and opened it.
In the perception of sight and hearing.
Zhunyi knew from the start that it was full of banknotes.
