Ghost Shark, but in the world of One Piece

No matter how you look at it, Laurentina, who always puts ordinary people first, is a staunch dove.

"That idiot Doro!" Sakazuki clenched his fist, then released it, and downed a cup of hot tea with gusto. "Burning civilians at will, where does that leave the Navy's reputation?!"

Upon hearing this, Kuzan was immediately stunned.

It seems that Sakazuki's beliefs have softened a bit under Laurentina's influence.

Although it was largely to maintain the dignity of the hawks, at least he could say things like protecting civilians.

"Alright, enough with the praise for Laurentina." He picked up a cup of tea, blew on it, and his expression turned serious. "The most urgent thing is how to deal with Doro. We can't let him get beaten to death on live stream."

"Of course." Sengoku patted the little lamb that was munching on the document with one hand, and then became serious again.

"Doro's case is a lesson. Here's what we'll do: dismiss him and hand him over to the Naval Criminal Investigative Service, let Black Horse make the judgment."

“We definitely can’t let him die at Laurentina’s hands; we should follow the proper procedures.” Crane nodded in agreement.

Not long ago, Shiryu, the warden of Impel Down, was sentenced to death with a reprieve by Magellan for indiscriminately killing prisoners. Now it seems that Dolo's fate will be even worse.

“However, this should serve as a wake-up call for us.” Crane put down his teacup, rested his chin on his hands, and looked sharp. “From the rat colonel in the East China Sea to Lieutenant General Dolo now, one scoundrel after another has emerged. It seems that quite a few parasites have been bred in the Four Seas and the headquarters.”

"Execute them all!" Sakazuki said, a cigar dangling from his lips, standing by the window. "There's no need to show mercy to these scum!"

“That makes sense, but it’s too radical.” Tsuru nodded first, then shook her head. “Let’s investigate the backgrounds of these people first, starting with headquarters.”

......

Alice quickly received a notification from headquarters and shut down the live stream, signaling Specter to stop.

Dolo, who was beaten to a pulp, was escorted to the Criminal Investigation Bureau by Iska and his team.

The bustling town of Meadow instantly became much quieter, as the executed pirates were reduced to ashes in this hunt.

"By the way, Muse and Haiya are back, but why haven't we heard from Ain yet?"

Laurentina reached out, and the bloodstains on the circular saw peeled off automatically. She then took out a Den Den Mushi and called Ein.

"Boom boom boom..."

Soon, a familiar yet weak voice came from the other end, "Lauren Tina?"

"It's me." The girl nodded, then frowned. "What's wrong with you? Something sounds off."

"I don't know either. It seems there's a strange disease spreading on this island lately, a kind of 'strength declines as soon as you arrive on the island' disease."

"Oh? Then come back quickly, let Alice take a look at you."

"Received!" The voice on the other end hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded in agreement.

Chapter 103 Alice, in Danger! (Second Update, Please Subscribe)

A well-preserved tavern in Meadow.

Ain was led by Hibari to Specter's side, and behind her was the equally dejected naval squad.

She only stayed in that village for a short time, and her subordinates, just like herself, suddenly lost their strength one after another.

"Sit down, Ain, everyone's waiting for you."

Ghost Shark said, "I'd rather know what happened to your search team than the intelligence."

“No problem, it all started in that village…” Ain barely managed to support herself, her face pale.

As Ain continued her story, Ghost Shark frowned and looked at Alice beside her, only to see the latter shake her head slightly.

Not an illness?

That's most likely a Devil Fruit ability.

Wait, one memory after another slowly surfaced in the girl's mind.

The incredibly weak pirates of the West Blue...

Crocus kindly reminded the powerful figures passing through...

Even now, the Ain squad is still weak.

There seems to be a connection between the three.

Could it be the fruit of exploiting human strength?

The problem is that Ain has never met that person, and doesn't even know the conditions for the fruit to activate.

"Alright, your team should get some rest first."

Ghost Shark waved his hand, and a burly waiter came over. He glanced at him and immediately understood, leading the Navy to a room on the second floor to rest.

"Alice, we'll take turns keeping watch tonight."

"Okay." Alice nodded, and seeing that it was getting dark, she went upstairs to rest and recharge for the rest of the night.

Once his companions had all gone back to their rooms to rest, Ghost Shark spread his wings and sat on the rooftop. At that moment, the full moon shone brightly overhead, and the stars twinkled brilliantly.

The night watch was boring and lonely, but at least I had Lancet to keep me company, and having someone to talk to made it much easier.

Five hours later.

"Go and rest."

Alice flew up using her Moonwalk technique: "Now, the little cutie, Lancet, is mine."

"Da, da me!"

The voice of the lancet was transformed into a cute one; because it was a robot, it sounded like a silly, adorable girl next door holding a walkie-talkie.

The blonde woman in front of it was the person with the lowest favorability rating on the Lancelot, and it didn't want to leave the elegant and beautiful colonel, so it reached out its little hand and grabbed the hem of Ghost Shark's skirt.

"Good girl." Ghost Shark smiled and ruffled Willow Leaf Blade's snow-white hair.

"Alice is the class monitor of your medical team. Although she is completely different from me, she always has a sharp tongue and is willful. She gets angry at the drop of a hat. She is really no good at all."

"Hey! I'm right here!" Alice's face darkened.

Upon hearing this, the orca-like scalpel stuck out its little tongue triumphantly.

"But she suffered"

"If I get hurt, it's like I've lost myself." Ghost Shark blurted out these sweet words that made Alice blush.

"Seriously, I just can't do anything with you. You just can't live without me." The unlucky guy turned his head, his voice slightly different.

Meanwhile, Willow Leaf's face fell, and she hugged Ghost Shark tightly with both hands, her face showing grievance as if she had been abandoned by a scumbag.

"So now I'm asking you to stay by her side for me." The girl ruffled Willow Leaf Blade's hair. "Because Willow Leaf Blade is like family to me, someone I can trust."

“Since the colonel has said so,” Lancelot reluctantly released his arm. “Then I will obey orders and stay with Captain Alice. You should go and rest.”

Seeing that the two were finally able to get along, Ghost Shark nodded and flew down.

Ghost Shark's body is perfectly capable of guarding the night alone, but there's no such thing as guarding against thieves for a thousand days when you're a thief for a thousand days. Not sleeping every day and using Observation Haki is also a huge drain on his mental energy.

Moreover, no one lingered near the tavern for the entire first half of the night.

"How boring, Lancet." Alice sat on the rooftop, swinging her legs, and couldn't help but look at the white-haired, red-eyed robot next to her, who sat silently like a little adult.

"Sister Ai Yin won't let me talk to idiots!" Liu Yedao mumbled, pouting, looking adorably silly.

"Hey... how about you tell me a story? I promise I won't talk, that way I won't be bored, and you won't really be talking to me."

“I don’t have any fabricated stories about me. Besides medical knowledge and common sense, I only have recordings and texts of my most respected colonel’s speeches.”

“The speech? But we’ve memorized everything Ghost Shark said.” Alice stroked her chin, looking troubled. Suddenly, she seemed to realize something. “Textbook? Where will you print the text after your transformation?”

Although the old lancet was bulky, it still had a printing port.

But now, it's taken on human form...

Mouth? The four-dimensional pocket in front of him? Or some indescribable place?

And so, in Alice's sight, the lancet reached down and touched...

Hiss~ Dr. Tsukimi, I didn't expect you, an old and decrepit man, to be such a dishonest person!

Just as Alice's face turned red and she was breathing heavily through her nose, a voice behind her suddenly startled her.

"Meow~"

The unlucky girl froze in fright, turning her head away slowly, as if she had been wound up.

I had heard the story of the cat-faced old lady that Specter told at the recruit training session before.

The moon was obscured by dark clouds on a dark night, and there was not a sound of wind. The old woman with wrinkled skin and an eerie expression was pale.

"Meow~"

An orange cat with black veins on its skin jumped onto the rooftop next to Alice.

"Ha, ha, ha, ha..." Alice patted her chest, panting. It was just a kitten after all, but it was really scary that something like this happened in the middle of the night.

"Hahaha." Lancet burst into laughter upon seeing this. "You're such a coward, Captain Alice."

"I, I didn't!" Alice, as if to prove herself, immediately picked up the kitten and sneered, "See!"

While Alice and Lancelot were bickering, the orange cat in her hand suddenly focused its gaze, and a ball of crimson light rapidly emanated from the arm that was in contact with the cat, attempting to burrow into Alice's body.

boom!

For no apparent reason, Alice seemed to hear the sound of a bouncy ball being bounced away. She immediately panicked, and sure enough, the next moment, a ball of light appeared in front of Alice and her companion.

"What is this?" Alice was immediately dumbfounded.

Who is this person? The crimson light seemed equally puzzled.

The next moment, the ball of light tried to enter the body of the lancet, but was bounced back.

???

The ball of light was dumbfounded.

Why can't any of them get in?

At this moment, Alice, who was slow to realize what was happening, finally reacted and hurriedly pressed the alarm on her person.

Tsk, I've been exposed.

Suddenly, the ball of light condensed into a human shape, which, judging from its form, appeared to be female.

"Do you really want to die?" The menacing voice fell into the unfortunate little guy's ear.

Immediately afterwards, two cold lights shot towards Alice from the left and right, moving so fast they were difficult to catch.

A series of high-pitched alarms blared inside the tavern.

--laugh!

The assassin twirled his knife with a flourish, gripped his Gurkha kukri in his other hand, swooped down, accelerated, and then vanished, leaving two streaks of red in the darkness.

So fast!

Alice had no time to dodge and had to parry urgently, her Iron Block receiving Armament Haki.

Uh!

She cried out in pain, and two streams of blood spurted from her arm as she shielded herself, the wounds reaching deep into the bone.

"That's wonderful, the world loves you!"

Alice heard the assassin's seductive laughter behind her. The person in the shadows smacked their lips, licking away the blood from their cheek, before their voice sharpened again.

"How enviable!"

The assassin suddenly turned around, his silver scimitar gleaming with moonlight, and unleashed a powerful upward slash.

She uses basic kendo movements, never pursuing anything fancy, but rather emphasizing a straightforward and decisive approach.

"Paper Painting: Guardianship!"

Alice dodged quickly, enveloped in a faint halo of light. In the past, many injuries in battles had been avoided by this golden light.

click!

The stalemate lasted only a moment before the golden aura around Alice, like shattered glass, completely melted away before the opponent's strike.

Uh!

at once,
