Chapter 108-109

Bounty of 300 million Berries!

Before Ross, the top Supernova in the first half of the Grand Line was a pirate named Bartra who had a bounty of 280 million Berries. Now Ross has surpa.s.sed him in the first half of the Grand Line of this era, he has a bounty of 300 million berries which made him the top Supernova.

In the first half of the Grand Line, a supernova with a bounty of 100 million berries read the new wanted poster of Ghost Hand Ross and he couldn't help but blink repeatedly when he read the reward.

"Oh, 300 million, what a big deal."

Sabaody Archipelago.

Another Supernova with a bounty of over 100 million berries, read the bounty order falling from the sky and slightly grinned:

"What a great guy, For someone who has completely angered the government and Marine and still lives to this day."

"It is unfortunate that he didn't meet us."

A man next to him with a cigarette grinned and said, "But we're going to the New World soon, let's see if that guy can live till he reaches the New World."

On a piece of sea.

Don Chinjao, a bald man in a blue cloth, touched his bald head and looked angry: "The younger generation man always runs around, but sooner or later this old man will find you!"

For the first half of the Grand Line, all the Supernovas which held the bounty of over 100 million berries paid attention to this news, because in the first half of the Grand Line anyone who has a bounty of over 100 million berries will be able to survive in the New World and they will have a chance to become one of the members in Yonkō (Four Emperors) Pirates.

Compared to it.

In New World, there are many pirates with the bounty of over 100 million berries, but not many people will pay attention to this kind of news.

"Ghost Hand Ross's hanging bounty… reaches 300 million!"

"Don't you say that he had disappeared from the sea? What did he do now?!"

Many people were shocked to find Ross's bounty order, which changed from 200 million Berries to 300 million Berries. As the government tried to cover up the CP9 accident, the news of Ross's defeat of CP9 in North Blue did not leak out. Few people knew the inside story.

Although there is not much news about Ross, the change in the bounty order has caused some waves on Grand Line and some forces who believe that Ross has been secretly dealt with by the government have once again focused their attention on them.

Compared to other Pirates, the Ghost Hand Pirates is undoubtedly regarded by the World Government as a bone spike, a stab in the flesh that has to be removed.

"The government and Marines will never give up."

"They have raised the bounty on his head and I am sure that Marines will continue to chase to either suppress or kill the Ghost Hand Pirates."

Never had a Pirates been able to shame the World Government and Marines several times before they entered New World.

Never had a Pirates been able to survive the first half of Grand Line and reach New World after outraging the government and Marines!

Ghost Shadow s.h.i.+p.

After placing CP9 and others on a large island in Grand Line, Ross gave them the first mission, which contained two submissions.

First, to collect all the intelligence of Supernova pirate in the first half of the Grand Line, especially those who have a bounty of over 100 million, their location and specific routes.

Second is to collect all Seven Warlords of the Sea Intelligence data, focusing on location information as well.

"I will kill some pirates in the first half of the Grand Line but I need to hurry and go to the New World as soon as possible. Any future actions taken by the World Government will include CP0, or Buster Call, or a Marine Admiral will personally come out."

Ross stood on the deck and murmured as he watched the rolling sea.

The exact existence of CP0 is not clear to Ross, but from the memory of Lucci joining CP0, their strength can be compared with a person who has eaten the Flame-Flame Fruit, they are the highest Battle power in the organization, Their strength will not be much weaker than a Marine Admiral.

Buster Call has 10 large Battles.h.i.+ps, five Marine Headquarters Vice-Admiral and at least ten Headquarters Rear Admiral, which are second only to CP0 and Marine Admiral.

As for a Marine Admiral…

The worst thing for Ross is to encounter a Marine Admiral, He is now strong enough to surpa.s.s the veteran Headquarters Vice-Admiral, but still, the huge gap between him and a Marine Admiral cannot be erased even with the a.s.sistance of the Proficiency Points he gained after killing Lucci.

Marine Admiral is almost at the peak of both body and Haki. There is no absolute shortcoming. Even Kizaru, which Zephyr calls its over-dependence on fruit, has absolute capital to rely on fruit, and the speed of glittering fruit is too terrifying.

"Unlike Luffy, can a year or two be enough to reach a Marine Admiral's in strength…" Ross pondered.

His present situation seems to be at ease. In fact, it is at the edge of the cliff that he is likely to fall into the abyss at any time. If he wants to truly have the ability of self-protection, he must at least have the strength of a High-Level cadre of Yonkō (Four Emperors) Pirates or it will be even better if his strength is similar to a Marine Admiral!

Thinking for a while, Ross shook his head and called out the Talent System.

After killing Lucci, he had not used the 100 Talent Proficiency Points. Looking at the semi-permeable Talent System Interface, he thought about it and put 50 Proficiency points on Agility Enhancement.

Speed is his current weakness and shortcomings. If he did not conceal his strength and create opportunities to hit Lucci hard, even if he would win in the end, but it would be difficult for him to catch Lucci if he wanted to escape.

Lucci was a lot faster than him, not to mention Marine Admiral. If he meets Kizaru, he can easily play Ross on the palm of his hand by using speed alone.

Buzz!!

The golden light flashed and the panel of the General department changed.

Agility Enhancement: 200 (Top Level Strengthening)

Physical Enhancement: 350 (Top Level Strengthening)

After filling in 50 Talent Proficiency Points, Agility Enhancement rose from 150 to 200, crossing the threshold of Top Level Strengthening.

After a burst of heat flowing through his body, Ross could almost clearly feel that his body had become extremely light and that lightness had no effect on his strength.

Whiz! Whiz!

He lifted his foot and utilized Geppō (Moonwalk), he circled around the Ghost Shadow s.h.i.+p and returned to his original place. His speed was at least 50% higher than before.

Such a surge will make up for the speed gap between Lucci and him in an instant, even slightly better than that!

If he fought with Lucci with his current speed then he would be able to defeat him in speed and he will not have any weakness!

The remaining 50 Talent Proficiency Points, Ross slightly thought and a.s.signed 35 points to the Observation Haki and 15 points to the Distortion Fruit.

Buzz!!

The golden light illuminates from the bottom of the Battle Talents Tree and it flashes all the way.

Firearms Shooting: 50

Close-Combat Fighting: 100

Distortion Fruit: 405

Soru of Marine's Rokus.h.i.+ki: 0

Kami-e (Paper Drawing) of Marine's Rokus.h.i.+ki: 0

Marine's Rokus.h.i.+ki's Geppō (Moonwalk):0

Observation Haki: 50

Armament Haki: 0

Distortion Fruit's proficiency breaks through the 400-point mark to 405 points, which fits in with the seven-month improvement in the Sky island.

As for Observation Haki, it also reached 50 points and it has soared. With his full concentration, it is easy for him to perceive the action of Robin who is taking a shower in the bathroom.

However.

He can only perceive actions and can't see the full picture.

"I don't know if I can catch Kizaru's action now… but It should still be very difficult.

As Ross adapted to the improved Observation Haki, he thought and muttered to himself.

Marine Headquarters.

Aokiji sat yawning, rubbing his eyebrows in an office at the top of the fortress and said, "Ah Rara, is there another one? The Ghost Hand Pirates are troublesome.

Previously, he went to the sea for the Ghost Hand Pirates, he went out for a month and stayed outside for a month. He found nothing and finally returned without success.

A Marine Admiral ran out alone for a month and acc.u.mulated a lot of things he needed to deal with. After returning, he was busy for a long time before he finished.

Aokiji shook his head and couldn't help but think of Garp.

Garp has repeatedly refused to be promoted to an Admiral and even now he is still a Vice-Admiral. Compared with Admiral's position, Vice-Admiral is much easier. It does not need to be responsible for tenryubito's security, maintain tenryubito's power, or supervise numerous Marines subordinates to approve trivial matters in a sea.

Right now he is a newly appointed Admiral so he is not as lazy as he was in the original series, He is doing his job as an Admiral.

"Oezi sea area…"

Aokiji took out the sea map and looked at it for a moment. As a new Marine Admiral, he was responsible for a lot of trifles things of Marines. If he ran out again and again for a single pirate group, Marine would be in a mess.

However, CP9 was destroyed by Ross, s.h.i.+chibukai Crocodile was also killed by him and the branch Vice-Admiral was also unable to control the Ghost Hand Pirates. Even a Headquarters Vice-Admiral would be hard pressed in dealing with Ross. He had to authorize a Buster Call. The strength of the Ghost Hand Pirates requires a Buster Call to deal with them.

Headquarters Vice-Admiral is also responsible for a lot of things. Mobilizing five Headquarters Vice-Admiral at one time and leading the army to leave Headquarters to deal with the Ghost Hand Pirates will also have a great impact.

"It's really is a headache."

Aokiji, with a pen in one hand and a chin in the other, fell into deep meditation and finally took out Den Den Mus.h.i.+ and silently gave several orders.

Very soon.

Under the command of Aokiji, Marine Headquarters took action and a total of six large Battles.h.i.+ps departed from Headquarter.

"It's Vice Admiral Doberman and Vice-Admiral Momonga!"

"Six Battles.h.i.+ps and Vice-Admirals… Are they going to launch a Buster Call?"

Lieutenant Marine of Headquarters was shocked to see the scene. Although Marine Headquarters often had large Battles.h.i.+p docked on its sh.o.r.e but this time six battles.h.i.+ps were departed at the same time, led by Vice-Admirals and formed a fleet. Such forces were somewhat frightening.

It's like a big war!

On one of the Battles.h.i.+ps.

The atmosphere was suppressed. Headquarters Vice-Admiral Doberman walked up to the deck and pressed one hand on the hilt of his sword. His eyes looked coldly at the sea in front of him.

"I'll make up for the mistakes I made."

"This time… I will execute you personally!"

Marine Headquarters Vice-Admiral Doberman, working with several Headquarters Vice-Admiral from Marine Headquarters, Target Ghost Hand Pirates on the Grand Line!

Half a month later, Oezi sea area.

This is a sea on Grand Line, which covers two routes and consists of five islands. It is also called the Sea of Cherry Blossoms. The cherry trees on five islands in the sea are very flouris.h.i.+ng.

At the edge of one of the islands, the Ghost Shadow s.h.i.+p is briefly docked.

A pirate of over 100 million bounty is in this sea, but it is not yet clear which island he is at. Kaku and others are exploring intelligence through various channels in the Underground world.

In the practice room of Ghost Shadow s.h.i.+p, two figures are doing exercises, one is Ross and the other is Law. After boarding the Ghost Shadow s.h.i.+p and discovering  Ross's practice methods, Law quickly joined in on those practices.

Although he has become a s.h.i.+p doctor of the Ghost Hand Pirates and Ross has confirmed that he will deal with Doflamingo, he will not put all his hopes on others. In order to handle Doflamingo, he will naturally improve his strength as soon as possible.

"Hu…Hu…"

Law, who is a few months away from the age of sixteen, doesn't need to mention the gap between his and Ross's physical fitness. Right now he can only carry Ross's lightest weight and do physical exercises.

In the other corner of the practice room, Ross not only carries a huge load ten times more than Law's but also used his Gravity Distortion to support himself with double gravity!

After the proficiency of the power of distortion's reached 400 points, Ross reached a new step for the displacement of gravity, which directly affected the gravity.

Naturally.

There's still a big gap between his Gravity Distortion and the Gravity Devil fruits. Today, he's trying to stimulate Gravity Distortion and can at most utilized triple of normal gravity, far less than Fujitora, let alone pulling a meteorite from the sky.

With the ability of double gravity, Ross's physical exercise effect has become obvious again. The special floor of the practice room can also bear Ross's maximum load with.

Ross and Law were doing almost synchronous movements, squatting heavily, but every time Ross squatted, he could feel the mountain-like heavy pressure. On the other side, Law seemed a little silly doing those exact movements with the same expression. The only thing that was almost the same was the look in their eyes.

The eyes of Ross and Law are very similar, both have their own goals, and their hearts are firm and unshakable. What they have to say is that Ross's eyes are slightly different from Law's. In his tough eyes, there is a hint of indescribability.

Bang!

Ross completed a set of squats and retracted the Gravity Distortion ability before putting the huge load aside, He sat on the floor gasping for breath.

Almost at the same time, Law couldn't hold on and he threw away the load, leaned against the back wall and gasped violently.

And just then.

After receiving the latest intelligence from the peripheral intelligence organization, Robin found Ross, who is practicing in the practice room.

"Captain Ross, the intelligence has come, They have determined the position of the Moving Weapons Crés Bartra with the bounty of 160 million Berries…"

"Oh?"

Ross stood up and took a deep breath to maintain his image and looked at Robin.

Robin first reported the intelligence in her hand and then asked Ross: "So, should I contact our navigator now?"

Ross nodded and said: "Notice Laffitte that as soon as the magnetism of the Log Pose is full, he is to come back to the s.h.i.+p, Our goal is Spring Island and I don't want my prey to run away."

The pirates who have the bounty between 100 million and 200 million berries are good hunting targets for him, even if he hunts a pirate with the same amount of bounty a second time he will acquire 40 Talent Proficiency points, which is a considerable improvement and there is also a probability of gaining Free Talent Points.

He now has 2 Free Talent Points. For the time being, he doesn't plan to mess around with them. The proficiency of the Distortion Fruit has reached 405 points. It is not far away from 600 points. At that time, the Free Talent Points will be needed to activate the Distortion s.p.a.ce ability and that ability will require more than 3 Free Talent Points.

For Ross.

The first half of the Grand Line is a free map. Even if he killed pirates wantonly he won't provoke any of the Yonkō (Four Emperors). After entering the New World, the pirates are either s.h.i.+chibukai or they are under the banner of Yonkō (Four Emperors).

Even if he is able to stall the Marines and the government long enough to enter the New World unharmed, he would face the situation of New World's Four Emperors separatist regime.

If he wants to rise in that sea than he would have to confront a Yonkō (Four Emperors)!

Before that, Ross had to safely break into New World under the b.l.o.o.d.y and ruthless pursuit of Marine and the government.

This road is extremely difficult.

But.

As long as he stepped over, he would be very close to standing on the top of the sea.
