“So that’s how it is. Enies Lobby has been destroyed, and the Five Elders actually chose to compromise.”

Tsuru’s brow furrowed. She couldn’t figure out the Five Elders’ reasoning. To be bullied like this and then just back down—was that really their style?

“Perhaps they’re wary of Shin Uzumaki. To this day, no one truly knows the extent of his power.”

Garp said to Tsuru. In his view, the Five Elders’ decision to compromise wasn’t hard to understand.

If it were Whitebeard, they would never have let him go. But Shin Uzumaki possessed the strength to easily defeat both him and Sengoku. Coupled with his past achievements—like that meteor that wiped Enies Lobby off the map—it was enough to make the Five Elders think twice.

If the Five Elders continued to stand their ground, it would be foolish.

“After this, the Five Elders will definitely do everything in their power to deal with Shin Uzumaki.” Garp believed that after this incident, the Five Elders would be even more aware of the threat Shin posed.

“This is not the time to think about that. We should focus on how to deal with Shin Uzumaki now.”

Sengoku shook his head and said. A doctor had already come to treat his injuries.

“So the injuries on your body… were caused by Shin Uzumaki.” Tsuru looked at Sengoku’s wounds and understood how they had been inflicted.

They didn’t have to wait long. Shin’s ship arrived. Of course, his ship was fast, but it couldn’t compare to Garp using Moonwalk at full speed.

————

“HE’S HERE! ALL FORCES, ON ALERT!”

Sengoku rose to his feet, waving the doctor away. Injuries or not, as Fleet Admiral, he couldn’t afford to show weakness.

“Looks like the Marines are ready.”

Shin stood on the bow of the ship, surveying the situation at Marineford.

“This is insane. I never thought I’d live to see this day,” Olvia said.

They were here to cause trouble at Marine Headquarters, Marineford. She had never imagined she’d be able to do something like this in her lifetime.

“You’ll see many more things you never imagined in the future. Better get used to it,” Shin joked to Olvia.

The ship approached Marineford. Shin looked at Sengoku, Garp, and the others, who were waiting in formation.

————

“Are you really planning to fight me?” Shin asked with a smile.

If Sengoku reached out to the Five Elders now, they should have reached a decision by this point. But judging by the Marines’ battle formation, had the Five Elders turned them down?

Were they really planning to fight to the bitter end?

“WAIT, SHIN UZUMAKI! THE FIVE ELDERS HAVE AGREED TO HAND OVER TOM.” Sengoku said, seeing Shin raise his hand, a sense of dread washing over him.

“Oh, they agreed? But it seems a bit late…”

Shin looked up at the sky. A meteor was falling from the sky.

Using Tengai Shinsei didn’t require Susanoo’s assistance for Shin. He could pull a meteor from space directly.

Sengoku’s face turned grim. He quickly understood what Shin meant by “late.”

“How about this? Give me ten Devil Fruits, and I’ll help you send the meteor back. You don’t have much time to think. Make a decision, quickly.”

Shin said to Sengoku with a faint smile.

“ARE YOU DOING THIS ON PURPOSE?” Sengoku gritted his teeth and looked at Shin.

“That’s not important. Does it really matter if I’m doing it on purpose? All that matters is the result.”

Shin shook his head lightly and said to Sengoku.

Sengoku frowned.

Indeed, the current situation was not what he wanted. He knew very well the destruction the meteor would cause when it hit. Even if he could shatter it, the fragments would still destroy Marineford.

The choice was clear. Shin Uzumaki hadn’t given him any other options.

“Alright, ten Devil Fruits it is.” Sengoku said through gritted teeth.

He couldn’t produce ten Devil Fruits on his own, but the Five Elders were another story. The Celestial Dragons had stockpiles of Devil Fruits—getting them to hand some over shouldn’t be an issue.

————

“Good.”

Shin looked up at the sky. The falling meteor flew back up, pushed back into space by Shin’s repulsive force.

He wasn’t concerned about Sengoku backing out of the deal. If he tried anything, Shin wouldn’t hesitate to drop a meteor on his head. He was confident Sengoku wasn’t stupid enough to test him.

Immediately after, Sengoku urgently called the Five Elders. Although they were furious with Shin Uzumaki for taking advantage of the situation, they ultimately compromised.

After a few hours, Tom and ten Devil Fruits were delivered to Shin.

Shin glanced at Tom, his eyes transforming into the Nine-Tomoe Rinne-Tenseigan. He had already scanned through Tom’s memories.

“Let’s go.”

Shin took the ten Devil Fruits. As for Tom, Shin let him go.

He already had Tom’s memories and knew where the Pluton blueprints were, so keeping him around served no purpose. But since Tom had provided the blueprints, killing him would be ungrateful—so he let him go. Whether Tom got captured again afterward wasn’t Shin’s problem.

Sengoku watched Shin leave and breathed a sigh of relief. The longer Shin was here, the greater the pressure he felt.

Now he was finally gone.

————

“Sengoku, did you see that? He actually let Tom go. What’s the meaning of this?” Garp patted Sengoku and asked, but didn’t get a response, which made him look over.

“Sengoku, what’s wrong?”

“…” Looking at the fainted Sengoku, Garp’s eyes narrowed, a terrifying aura emanating from his body.

“Vice Admiral Garp, Fleet Admiral Sengoku fainted from excessive blood loss. It’s not serious. His Injuries can heal in half a month with Proper rest.”

The doctor immediately said to the worried Garp.

After learning of Sengoku’s condition, Garp finally relaxed. So he had just fainted from blood loss. Fortunately, it wasn’t anything major.

“Focus on treating Sengoku.”

————

“Shin, why did you let Tom go?” Hancock asked Shin, puzzled.

Not just Hancock, but Robin and the others were equally puzzled—though they trusted that Shin had his reasons for releasing Tom.

“There’s no need to keep him anymore. Because the Pluton blueprints are already in my hands.”

Where were the Pluton blueprints hidden? In Tom’s memory. Tom had memorized the entire blueprint, so when Shin accessed his memories, he obtained them completely.

All Shin had to do now was draw the blueprints and give them to a shipwright to build.

But where could he find a suitable shipwright? Tom was certainly qualified, but he’d definitely refuse to build Pluton for him—unless he forced him to comply.

‘Forget it. I’ll ask Elder Nyon first. If she can do it, I’ll let her handle it. If not, I’ll go find Tom. I’ll control him if I have to.’
