“They’re right, Queen of Music, 10,000 Berries? 50,000 Berries? 500,000 Berries?” A beautiful noblewoman, carrying a bag, rose gracefully and laughed, “No matter the price, I’ll buy it, and I’ll buy 100,000 of these collectibles!”
Big dog owner!
The general public is furious. Who knows how many albums will be released yet, and you're already raising the price? Tens of thousands of copies pre-ordered?
Bathed in the audience's admiring gazes, Ghost Shark smiled and said, "One hundred Berries a share."
Nani?
One hundred Berries per serving?
Do you think this is selling newspapers? Or doing charity?
The fool's fanatics couldn't help but try to dissuade him, saying, "Silly child, this is no way to squander money."
"How can a song that could save a life be priced too high?"
Under the spotlight, the world's most beautiful woman smiled and refused everyone's advice.
If it weren't for the cost and Deep Sea Records' financial situation, she would have really wanted to do it for free.
A simple question stumped everyone.
"Well said!" BBB led the applause, bursting into laughter, his two tufts of hair dancing in the wind. What is a noble character? What is a king of music across the world?!
The sailors were filled with pride, exchanging joyful glances and clapping enthusiastically. See? This is what a model navy officer should do!
Ordinary people cheered collectively, while viewers watching the live stream weren't quite as enthusiastic, but their faces were still filled with smiles.
He is clearly a great musician, yet he is so considerate of ordinary people. Doesn't that make him a righteous navy?
"This was done very well; the Navy should show its appreciation." In the front row, Tsuru laughed with satisfaction as he chatted with Kuzan.
"Ara ara~ That's definitely how it should be." Kuzan's expression was relaxed, his demeanor seemingly returning to the moment he first joined the Navy. "Promotion or transfer back to headquarters?"
“I think transferring back to headquarters is the best decision.” Tina had regained her aloofness. “As a base commander, even if you reach the rank of lieutenant general, the area you manage is still this big.”
“Although this is cruel to Crescent Moon Island and disrupts my sister’s efforts over the past six months,” Tina insisted, “the West Sea is too small a stage; the headquarters is where she should be.”
"The world government will not allow it."
He shook his head, his expression calming down. "They won't value this achievement. Let's just leave it for now, and transfer them back once we've accumulated enough merit."
Kuzan and Tina nodded repeatedly; this was indeed the best solution.
After the match, Specter, using his new title, reiterated to the Den Den Mushi that Lone Star Town welcomes artists such as singers, painters, and sculptors, offering them not only preferential policies but also a door that is always open to them.
The Giant Dome Stadium in Lone Star Town hosts free performances by artists every weekend, regularly holds arts and music festivals, opens its exhibition halls, and also undertakes external projects, such as international sports events.
After a series of promotional activities, Full Moon Island finally secured its title as a "music mecca".
An island with a music king at its helm, which greatly promotes the development of the arts industry, who can possibly stop the great artists from taking notice?
The destruction of Greysia made Shanks hated by all the people of the world.
But a new holy land has emerged, and a large number of grassroots artists and artists dissatisfied with the local kingdom are voting with their feet, and Lone Star Town is about to usher in a prosperous era!
At Lone Star Harbor, Ghost Shark gives Crane and Tina a hug as they prepare to part ways.
"Grandma Crane." The girl opened her mouth, then asked somewhat shyly, "We can't leave Lone Star Town, but the Deep Sea Fleet's training can't be neglected because of that."
"What? You want an instructor?" Tsuru saw through Specter's thoughts at a glance and said with a smile.
"Yes, I've been having some trouble with my training in Overlord Bond and Armament Haki flow lately."
Recalling the repeated beatings she received from Shiki and Kaido, she immediately felt humiliated.
If Shiki hadn't gotten old, and if Garp hadn't appeared, he would have been dead long ago.
There's no time to waste anymore.
Wang Luffy was able to defeat two Sea Emperors within two years, but what about himself? Does he have a god-level Devil Fruit and the awareness to willingly sacrifice his lifespan?
Wait a minute, sacrificing one's lifespan is something one can indeed do.
After all, my lifespan is endless!
This is definitely a path we can consider in the future.
Once the idea took hold, Ghost Shark suddenly had a flash of inspiration: could he also buy the recipe for Ivankov's life-extending potion? He could also explore the blood-burning method.
However, the key lies in the application of Overlord's Haki and advanced Armament Haki!
“That is indeed a problem.” Crane pondered, stroking his chin. “Zefa wants to train newcomers, and the only ones stronger than you are the generals and marshals.”
"Wait, could we temporarily transfer Garp here for a few months? Doesn't he really want to eat the food here?"

Lone Star Town, a record store affiliated with Deep Sea Records.
“I’m telling you, Hancock.”
Specter glanced at the Kuja Pirates carrying large bags and sighed, "You're a member of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, why are you still lingering on Crescent Moon Island?"
"Lady Laurentina."
The Empress solemnly handed an album to her subordinate, her hand pausing, tears welling up in her eyes. "Could this be a sign of a change of heart? We don't even have a child!"
child?
A bolt of lightning struck the ghost shark directly in the brain.
This damn love brain!
"Ah, no." Specter Shark waved his hand wearily. "Look, Amazon Lily still needs you. If pirates attack, can you bear to see your people suffer in blood and fire?"
This is what people in the Flower Country often mean by "love me, love my dog," right?
What an idiot, Hancock!
Lady Laurentina loves you so much!
Hey! Honey!
The Empress's eyes sparkled with hearts as she wiped away her tears, her voice rising into the air, "Once I buy another 100,000 EP albums, I'll go back to protect Daughter Island!"
100,000...
The accompanying national defense soldiers' mouths twitched violently.
"Mind your own business!" Hancock turned around, her eyes blazing with anger, and said in a deep voice, "What do you know? This is a necessary measure to strengthen the spirit of the residents of Amazon Lily!"
"From today onwards, Colonel Specter's song will be the national anthem of Amazon Lily! Everyone must know how to sing it!"
The Kuja Pirates fell silent for a moment.
While it's pleasing to the eye to see pretty girls posting pictures, why are we the ones suffering? This kind of policy will be in place for twenty years after we're gone...
"In that case, I'll be going now. As one of the top four in the singing competition, you can enjoy discounts when shopping in Lonely Star Town. Have fun!"
The ghost shark waved and walked away.
Have fun? Have fun?
Hancock seemed to be struck by a gust of wind, and her Hime-style hair and her golden snake earrings were blown wildly.
She looked blissfully dazed, her hands resting on her chest, feeling as happy as if she were walking on cotton.
I appreciate your concern.
Lone Star Town, naval base.
“Colonel Specter.” Haya knocked on the door and came in. “Corleone has discovered the whereabouts of the Siennis family.”
Ok?
Ghost Shark put down the newspaper reporting on the singing competition, shifted his gaze, and gestured for her to sit down and speak.
"Tell me about the current state of the West Sea gangs."
"Okay!" Haiya took out the documents and handed over the completed layout diagram.
Ghost Shark took the chart, laid it flat on the rosewood table, and bowed his head.
These gangs can currently be roughly divided into three categories.
Centered on the Kingdom of Gazor, the Corleone family radiated outwards, ruling over one-third of the Western Sea.
The Seanes family, who have occupied part of Becky's territory, have had their own core territory gradually eroded and swallowed up.
Finally, a few small, scattered gang leaders occupied the last small piece of the pie.
"Did Corleone eat the fruit?"
"I ate it. It was a queen bee fruit that I stole from the gang's base."
"As long as he's strong enough, tell him to hurry up and capture Siennis and bring him to Crescent Island."
Thinking of his 21 dead colleagues, Ghost Shark clenched his fist, "I'll execute them all!"
"Yes!" Haiya glanced at her superior's eyes and silently withdrew.
Three months later, a dog-headed warship and a fishing boat from Ryugu Island arrived together.
"Puhahaha, Jinbe, are you guys here to eat grilled fish on Crescent Moon Island too?" On the dog-headed warship, Garp was holding a bag of snacks, chewing as he joked.
Hero Garp!
Jinbe stood on the eel boat, a hint of wariness in his eyes, but he still smiled and said, "Grilled fish? They have this kind of food on Crescent Moon Island? Then this old man must have a good taste."
But Prince Shark Star beside him was not so composed.
Upon hearing about grilled fish, his expression immediately turned troubled, and he silently hugged the golden trident tightly.
Unlike mermaids, fish-people do not eat fish or meat.
Garp smiled and didn't make things difficult for him.
Fishman Island's affiliation is awkward. It's a member state of the World Government, but it doesn't participate in World Conferences, and it even flies Whitebeard's flag.
At the port of Lone Star Town, a naval column appeared in the distance to welcome them.
From the bow of the ship, Karp could see three flagpoles standing in the center of the harbor.
The tallest one in the middle is the naval flag, the second tallest one on the left is the deep-sea fleet's number flag, and the one on the far right has no flag but a human head stuck in it.
Haha, that's funny!
"Welcome Vice Admiral Garp!" Alice stepped forward to greet him, saluted, and then the entire navy saluted in unison.
The navy of the dog-headed warship returned the salute, lowered the gangway, and Garp led the way off the ship.
Meanwhile, the visitors from Fishman Island also landed on the island, welcomed by the Muse.
"Alice." Garp looked up at the flagpole with the human heads, still munching on his snacks with undiminished appetite. "Who is this guy?"
In any case, the sight of someone pointing their head at the port is incredibly intimidating.
"Siennis, the head of the West Sea gang."
A hint of pleasure flashed across Alice's face. "He sent assassins to kill 21 marines, but was eventually arrested and executed by the navy. Captain Specter decided to keep him here as a warning to others."
"Will all crimes be brought to justice?"
Jinbe walked over, glanced at the small characters under the flagpole, and couldn't help but become curious about Specter, whom he hadn't seen for over a year.
He still greatly admires the chivalrous spirit of "an eye for an eye."
"What a loyal child." Garp laughed, then looked impatiently at Alice, "Let's not talk about that for now, where's the food? I came here for the food."
"Don't worry, Grandpa Garp." Specter descended from the sky, landing and handing over a gold card. "I've put 100 million Berries into your account, plus a 30% discount, that's enough for you to eat for a week."
One hundred million pegories?
Holy crap, that's expensive!
The navy immediately cast envious glances their way.
Is this the base commander whom Lieutenant General Tsuru praised as having the best business acumen?
"You really understand me!"
Garp was about to take it when it was snatched away. Specter, with the gold card between his fingers, smiled and said, "Let's make this clear first, the training of the entire Deep Sea Fleet is in your hands, Grandpa, including my Haki training."
"The standard for soldiers is..." She glanced at the burly and powerful G3 navy, "...similar to them. As long as we perform well, more money will be injected in the future."
"Leave it to me!" Garp thumped his chest and laughed confidently.
