Chapter 273, "Bounty Money," has been updated!
The third day after the major events at Impel Down and Enies Lobby.
The new bounty poster for the Luo Ji World Group finally appeared along with the news of the defeat of the Seven Warlords of the Sea, Gecko Moria, and various gossip news about high-ranking naval officials.
The Navy Headquarters also officially announced the defection of Black Arm Zephyr.
This former admiral and chief naval instructor became a wanted criminal.
Of all the new wanted posters, surprisingly, the one for Morgans, the big news, was placed at the very top.
That's right!
The World Government has updated the bounty on this bastard again.
Morgans, as usual, used his own layout of the World Economic News's wanted poster, while the ugly wanted poster from the World Government was to hell with!
[World Government Version: Rumor Monger Morgans, Bounty 13 Billion Berries!]
[World Economy Edition: News King Morgans, Bounty of 13 Billion Berry!]
Next up is the wanted poster for the 'Evil Navy'.
However, Zephyr has publicly declared himself to be the new Navy, but the World Government and Navy Headquarters refer to them as the Evil Navy.
[Zeff, the evil traitor, has a bounty of 15 billion Berries.]
Binz, Paramecia-type Devil Fruit user, Lush Fruit, bounty 220 million Berries.
[Ain, Paramecia-type Devil Fruit user, Rewind-Rewind Fruit, bounty 210 million Berries.]
[Shuzo, bounty 2 million Berries.]
This rebel fleet, which calls itself the new NEO Navy, is actually not that strong.
But apart from the Five Emperors Pirate Crew, there aren't many great pirate crews that dare to provoke the new Marines, who have former Marine Admiral Zephyr.
Next up is the grand finale of the Luo Ji World Team!
Those who displayed their prowess in Impel Down and Enies Lobby saw their bounties skyrocket.
Especially those guys who are always causing trouble.
[Godslayer Luo Ji, bounty 100 billion Berries!!]
Although Luo Ji didn't do much in Impel Down and Enies Lobby, the impact he had was truly terrifying.
Moreover, his powerful and ruthless gang has posed a significant threat to the world government.
He truly deserves the title of the world's number one criminal!
But after offering such a huge bounty, who would dare to take action against the big boss of the Luo Ji World Group?
This simply indicates that Luo Ji is far more dangerous than the Four Emperors' pirate crews!
"Hahaha!! These guys were really sensible this time!"
Huang Mu laughed wildly, waving his bounty poster with a very satisfied expression.
The World Government and the Navy Headquarters actually gave him the bounty he requested during the live stream, which made him feel very proud.
It seems the world government still needs to issue more threats!
Not to be forgotten, he beat up Magellan, the warden of Impel Down, and also killed a Grand Inquisitor.
[Police Detective Abandoned Shepherd, Bounty 30 Billion Berries!]
"No! Why are the bounties on Huang Mu and Yi Xiao higher than mine?!"
Yamato held her bounty poster, her eyes filled with resentment. What was wrong with her? She had always worked very hard!
Could it be that her rival Shiryu of the Rain was no match for Magellan, or that the death of that weak Chief Justice?
[Demon Princess Yamato, bounty 26 billion Berries!]
"My bounty has changed too?"
Yi Xiao was a little puzzled. It seemed like he had been slacking off the whole time, except when he dealt with Shiryu of the Rain, when he actually made a move to suppress Shiryu.
[The war criminal Yixiao, with a bounty of 28 billion Berries!]
"It seems the World Government knows the power of the Gravity Fruit and values you highly."
A slight smile appeared on Big Bear's expressionless face. In the Luo Ji World Group, he had the best relationship with the equally gentle Mr. Yixiao.
[Tyrant Kuma, bounty 24 billion Berries.]
Kuma's bounty didn't increase much, but for the great pirates of this world, this amount was already terrifyingly high.
How are the Three Calamities and Four Sweet Commanders of the Four Emperors' pirate crews supposed to survive?
"Is money worthless these days?!"
Even the Red Earl and Barrett couldn't help but shrink their pupils when they saw these exaggerated numbers.
It seems they've been locked up in Impel Down for far too long.
The world is experiencing severe inflation.
Two or three decades ago, only a handful of top-tier pirates could reach such a bounty.
"I refuse to accept this! Why did my bounty increase so little! I clearly killed a Grand Inquisitor too!"
Hanafza held the bounty poster and cursed loudly, his eyes filled with rage!
The World Government and the Navy Headquarters are insulting him!
[Hanafza, the Lizard King, has a bounty of 650 million Berries!]
This is the same as Fire Fist Ace's current bounty, but it's still not as high as Crocodile's.
This prompted Crocodile to give a calm smile.
However, Crocodile's bounty did not increase much, rising from 681 million Berries to 700 million Berries.
It seems that his performance in Impel Down did not earn the approval of the World Government.
"You made over a hundred million just by taking down one weakling. You should be secretly laughing all the way to the bank!"
"At least your current bounty has surpassed that of the leader of the Flying Six and the last of the Four Generals!"
Crocodile laughed dismissively. Hanafza tried to take a shortcut, only to be slapped in the face by the World Government.
The people in the World Government and the Navy Headquarters do have some brains!
"hateful!!"
Hanafza's eyes were filled with rage; it seemed the shadow of being defeated by Fire Fist Ace would stay with him for life.
If Fire Fist Ace's bounty doesn't increase, his bounty probably won't increase either.
It's estimated that he still needs to defeat Fire Fist Ace head-on to break free from his current limitations and increase his bounty.
Those who suffer defeats are destined to be despised by others.
To be viewed through prejudiced lenses by others.
Enel looked at his bounty poster, still dissatisfied, and it seemed that the gap between him and Aramu was widening.
[Thor Enel, bounty 10 billion Berries!]
Enel's ability to fight Magellan head-on, coupled with the boost from his Logia-type Rumble-Rumble Fruit power, led the World Government to acknowledge his achievements.
In addition to the negative impact of executing a Grand Inquisitor, the World Government gave Enel a fairly substantial bounty.
However, Enel was determined to emulate the four top executives and didn't care about the bounty at all.
This made him even more determined to do something big!
"My bounty has increased!!"
Bonnie shouted excitedly. For someone her age to receive such a bounty was extremely rare.
[Bonnie, daughter of a tyrant, has a bounty of 320 million Berries!]
This bounty has already satisfied her greatly, far exceeding the bounty of the Supernovas. She is this year's Supernova King.
Bonnie happily showed off to Rebecca, Jade, and Mansherry.
“I told you to showcase more on live streams. Look how fast my and Huang Mu’s bounties have increased.”
Bonnie bounced around happily, holding her bounty poster.
"Heh, even I have an arrest warrant now!"
Shiryu of the Rain, munching on a cigar, looked at his bounty poster. He had only just joined the Luo Ji World Group and hadn't even made a name for himself yet.
However, his public defection as the warden of Impel Down had an extremely negative impact!
[Shiryu of the Rain, bounty 10 billion Berries!]
His first bounty was in the billions, which shows that the World Government really wants to kill Shiryu, this traitor.
The defections of Shiryu of the Rain and Zephyr of Black Arm dealt a heavy blow to the World Government.
They must stop this evil trend!
