I've Already Become An Admiral And Now The System Shows Up?

Chapter 45: Urgot Pirates, Testing



Actually, this time Kenji was conducting a test.

If the plan to have Sakazuki and Magellan stationed in Loguetown as his subordinates was feasible, then there was no need to say more.

If the system's final judgment did not approve of this plan, it would only be a waste of time, and he would consider other options then.

Of course, Kenji hoped this plan would succeed, and for this, he had specially paid a price to recruit Sakazuki and Magellan, two powerful rookies because he knew that Marineford had limited troops stationed in Loguetown, and the commanders' combat power was very ordinary.

This was mainly because most of Marineford's core combat forces were needed to prevent and resolve incidents in the New World, and they were unwilling to waste valuable strong combat personnel in the East Blue, which was considered the 'weakest sea'.

The latter half of the Grand Line is the truly dangerous place, where Legendary Pirates are everywhere.

That's why Kenji wouldn't pin his hopes of completing the mission on the personnel dispatched by Marineford.

If the weekly public order was consistently substandard and did not meet the system's judgment criteria, then weekly mission rewards would be out of the question, and the main storyline progression would also be stuck.

Kenji specifically chose two powerhouses to be stationed together to ensure the public order of Loguetown to the greatest extent.

And arranging two powerhouses was basically the limit. Magellan, in particular, was someone he had borrowed at a cost.

Sakazuki was a 'monster' student from Marine School. Kenji could at most specially recruit one like him. If he wanted to recruit more, Marineford would not release them.

As for dispatching Marine officers from Marineford bases to be stationed here, Marineford would basically not agree.

Moreover, the strength of most ordinary officers, and even Rear Admirals, might not be comparable to Sakazuki and Magellan.

"It's been decades, Loguetown doesn't seem to have changed much."

Kenji, dressed in casual clothes, led a group of people to Marine base in the town.

He carried Marineford's transfer order and went to complete the handover process.

At this moment, he walked on the streets of Loguetown, casually observing the shops and crowds on both sides of the road—it was still as lively and prosperous as when he was stationed here years ago.

Restaurants, taverns, bakeries, sword shops... rows of storefronts that stretched as far as the eye could see attracted various kinds of people.

Naturally, a large number of Pirates were mixed among them, as this town was located near the entrance to the Grand Line.

However, in a town guarded by the Marine, any Pirate with a normal brain would not actively jump out and loudly declare themselves a Pirate to the whole world.

Therefore, if Pirates didn't cause trouble in town, they generally wouldn't be recognized when mixed with ordinary people, unless they had a bounty on their head.

Before long, Kenji and his group arrived at the Marine base and completed the handover.

From this moment on, Sakazuki and Magellan officially took office, stationed in Loguetown.

"Whether it succeeds or not, we'll know the result in a week."

Kenji scanned the passing crowds on the street, and suddenly frowned.

At the same time, a loud 'bang' suddenly came from deep within the street.

A restaurant wall was broken, and a white figure flew out, looking like the restaurant's chef.

"Pah! This terrible liquor is awful... and you dare to ask me for money?!"

As the curses rang out, another fat figure crashed through the wall and flew out. This time, it looked like the restaurant owner.

The commotion attracted many pedestrians to stop and watch, and under the gaze of many eyes, a group of people walked out of the restaurant with arrogant strides.

The leader of the group had sickly green skin and hair, his face was covered in festering marks, and a faint green mist emanated from his breath.

There was no need to verify. Just by looking at their arrogant expressions and postures, one could tell they were a group of Pirates.

"Oh? He even has a bounty."

Kenji saw the group of Pirates from afar, especially the captain. He didn't recognize this person.

Soon, several Marine soldiers rushed over to report, "Report! Pirates are causing trouble and creating a disturbance... The other party is the Urgot Pirates!"

"Captain 'Green Demon' Urgot, bounty of 21,000,000 Berries!"

Kenji nodded. "No wonder... a bounty of 21,000,000 Berries counts as a powerful pirate in the East Blue."

He knew the other party had a bounty because a system mission had appeared. If it was a pirate without even a bounty, the system would not give a prompt at all.

[You are stationed in Loguetown and discover Pirates causing trouble and disrupting public order. The other party is the Urgot Pirates, rampant in the East Blue!]

[Mission (Side): Eliminate the Urgot Pirates!]

[Reward: Upgrade a random owned trait 1 time!]

"This mission can be used for testing."

"If the test is successful, the system's judgment mechanism can basically be confirmed."

Kenji remained in place, not moving.

Sakazuki and Magellan, who were behind him, voluntarily stepped out and quickly moved towards the Urgot Pirates.

"Immediately evacuate the civilians." Kenji gave the order.

Soon, the area where the pirate disturbance occurred was tightly surrounded by the Marine, and all ordinary civilians were evacuated and kept away.

In the center of the area, Sakazuki and Magellan stood in two directions, forming a pincer movement around the Urgot Pirates.

"Hehehe!"

Urgot let out a strange laugh, showing no fear of the Marine surrounding him, and even seemed a little happy.

"I just made some new toys recently, perfect for testing on you guys."

As he spoke, he pulled out a jelly-like green sphere.

"Oh, Captain's at it again, quickly put on your gas masks!"

"Boss, wait a minute..."

Seeing this, the pirates following Urgot quickly found their gas masks and put them on.

The Marine Lieutenant, who was commanding the surrounding forces from a distance, shouted a warning, "'Green Demon' Urgot is skilled in using highly poisonous attacks! Everyone, put on your gas masks!"

The soldiers quickly took action. The power of poisonous attacks was not something ordinary people could withstand.

Just then, a look of madness flashed in Urgot's eyes, and he suddenly launched an attack.

However, his targets were not the Marine surrounding them, but Sakazuki and Magellan, who were close at hand.

"Die for me!"

Urgot raised his hand and threw out two jelly-like green spheres.

Sakazuki and Magellan each received one, showing no favoritism.

Among them, Magellan was closest to Urgot and was the first to be affected by the jelly-like green sphere.

As the round, bouncy green sphere approached him, it exploded , and the liquid inside rapidly vaporized into a poisonous mist that enveloped Magellan.

"Easily melted, hehehe!" Urgot's eyes widened excitedly, laughing madly.

He enjoyed the pleasure of erasing life from the world.

However, the next moment, the smile on Urgot's face suddenly froze.

The dense poisonous fog surrounding Magellan quickly dissipated, eventually disappearing completely, and Magellan himself was unharmed.
