One Piece : Marine Scientist

"BOOM!"

Two terrifying Conqueror's Haki clashed violently.

Sengoku expression was so shocked.

He had already withdrawn his own Conqueror's Haki and instinctively turned to look.

There, the overwhelmingly powerful Conqueror's Haki was being released by Sakai, the Admiral-level Seraphim recently created by Leon.

"This..."

At this moment, not just Sengoku, but even Garp, Vice Admiral Tsuru, the three Admirals and Magellan, all wore expressions of utter astonishment!

They hadn't expected that this Admiral-level Seraphim would possess Conqueror's Haki—an ability so rare it appears in only one in a million.

Its dual Haki types were already incredibly formidable, but to think it could even master Conqueror's Haki.....

"This is truly... unbelievable!" Vice Admiral Tsuru exclaimed in amazement.

Sengoku quickly regained his composure.

His face immediately lit up with joy.

Putting everything else aside, the mere fact that it possessed Conqueror's Haki brought them an enormous surprise.

The three Admirals however, wore complicated expressions.

After all, even they didn't possess this ability.

Among them, Akainu reaction was the most dramatic.

Staring at the Seraphim that resembled him so closely, Akainu couldn't help but open his mouth.

For a moment, he even considered asking Leon if he could have Conqueror's Haki installed in himself.

But then he sighed and shook his head.

No, that wasn't realistic.

"BOOM!!"

The Conqueror's Haki clash between Sakai and Bullet continued.

This time was different from before, The two different colored Conqueror's Haki representing their respective powers continuously radiated terrifying auras, relentlessly colliding against each other.

Yet, Sakai Conqueror's Haki showed no signs of weakening—the two forces were perfectly matched!

This deepened Sengoku's astonishment.

As everyone knew, Seraphim could train and improve.

But Conqueror's Haki was an innate ability and Sengoku didn't dared to hope that Sakai could rival a veteran powerhouse like Bullet.

He just didn't expected Sakai to be this impressive!

Facing Bullet's Conqueror's Haki, it didn't fall behind in the slightest.

"...Not bad. To possess such formidable Conqueror's Haki. But I've never seen or heard of you before. State your name!" Bullet glared viciously at Sakai before him.

In his eyes, Sakai had already earned the right to be his opponent.

His battle spirit burned fiercely, his eagerness for combat unmistakable.

"His name is Sakai." Leon answered Bullet question instead of Sakai.

"Hmm?" Bullet turned to Leon.

Like the other prisoners, confusion filled Bullet's mind.

Who was this kid? Why was he in Impel Down's Level 6?

And he'd asked the lunarians, where did this child get the nerve to answer for him?

The key point was, why did Sengoku, Garp and the others still look as if this was all perfectly reasonable?

Bullett felt deeply puzzled. But no one answered his questions.

Meanwhile, the child stepped forward fearlessly.

"Bullett, I admit you're strong, but in the end you're still no match for my Sakai. How about we make a bet?"

"A bet?" Bullett stared at Leon in surprise.

He was stunned.

He couldn't understand how this mere child could speak so calmly and confidently in front of him, the Devil's Heir.

Was it just the fearlessness of youth?

His expression darkened and his eyes narrowed.

"Kid, what kind of bet?"

"You fight Sakai one-on-one. If you can defeat him within half an hour, the Marines promise to release you on the spot! But if you lose, you must willingly supply your blood samples from now on, What do you say?" Leon spoke seriously.

As soon as he finished speaking, the three Admirals stepped forward.

Kizaru was the first, his face full of urgency.

"No, Leon! This is far too risky. If we fail, recapturing this man would be extremely difficult—almost impossible..."

"Indeed, letting him go would only bring harm to the people" Aokiji added with a grave nod.

"Hmph, Leon, why take such a risk? The three of us can take him down together!" Akainu gritted his teeth, his eyes burning with anger as he glared at Bullett.

Bullett had repeatedly scorned the Marines' authority.

Akainu had no intention of letting him gain any advantage, much less allowing his release.

At this moment, Akainu looked ready to strike at any second.

Nearby, Magellan slowly stepped forward.

His expression was equally solemn as he stared at Bullett, shackled in chains, a deep wariness flashing in his eyes.

He shook his head. "A criminal like this is far too dangerous. If released, he would cause immense harm to the people and the World Government... Absolutely not!"

The three Admirals and Magellan all urged Leon against it.

Yet, Sengoku suddenly spoke.

"I agree."

Those simple words left the Admirals and Magellan stunned.

"Fleet Admiral Sengoku, this must not happen!" Magellan's face was frantic—this was no joke.

Bullett, a former crew member of the Pirate King, possessed extraordinary strength and a cruel, violent nature!

If he were released... The consequences would be unimaginable!

"Warden Magellan, don't worry. If anything goes wrong, i will take full responsibility!" Sengoku responded firmly.

Magellan expression shifted, his mind filled with confusion.

Sengoku had always been known as the "Resourceful General," steady and cautious.

Why was he being so reckless now?

Meanwhile, Vice Admiral Tsuru frowned deeply, seemingly lost in thought.

Only Garp remained indifferent, silently watching.

"Fleet Admiral Sengoku! I strongly disagree—" Akainu rushed forward, eager to voice his protest.

But Sengoku merely waved his hand. Cutting him off, he turned to Leon and said seriously.

"My decision is final. There's no need to stop me. Besides, I believe in Leon!" His gaze rested on Leon, filled with trust.

At first, when he heard that this child could develop something on par with the Warlords, he had been skeptical.

But as time passed... Leon had already achieved the impossible.

He even Invented an Admiral level Seraphim.

From the very beginning until now, every word Leon spoke had become reality.

So this time, if Leon believed it was possible, then Sengoku felt he should trust him!
