[Pirates placing bounties on the Navy?]

[The Fallen Angel Pirates issue massive bounties on the Celestial Dragons!]

[Totto Land Kingdom officially announces bounties on World Government personnel!]

[The highest authority of the World Government? A 10 billion Berry bounty—dare you claim it?]

[Fleet Admiral Hammons William receives a 5 billion Berry bounty!]

[The Celestial Dragons now have bounties!]

[3 billion for a Navy Admiral?]

…

After El, the leader of the Fallen Angel Pirates, set the tone, it took only a few days for Sally and her intelligence department to compile and classify lists of World Government officials and Navy personnel at all ranks.

These lists were then published in The Totto Land Daily, which was printed and distributed across the world.

For the first time in five years, Totto Land's network of specially trained News Coo messengers demonstrated its extraordinary reach.

With the help of the Homies and the ever-present News Coo reporters, The Totto Land Daily gathered intelligence from around the globe. Its ability to deliver breaking news rapidly had elevated it to become the second most popular newspaper on the seas, now a direct competitor to the leading World Economy News Paper.

When the bounty announcements were released, the entire ocean was shaken, and the world erupted in chaos.

"What?"

"Hey, is this for real?"

"Totto Land is placing bounties on the World Government?"

"A Navy Admiral has a 3 billion Berry bounty?"

"The Five Elders, who hold the highest power in the world, have been given a 10 billion Berry bounty?"

"Even the Celestial Dragons are worth 3 billion Berries each? And Totto Land is offering protection for anyone who kills a key figure in the World Government or the Navy—and their family?"

"Coo-coo! Even the Celestial Dragons? Is this the end of the world?"

"Navy Vice Admirals are worth 500 million Berries?"

"And that's not all—even Navy Rear Admirals are at 200 million Berries!"

"Brigadiers are 100 million, and lower-ranking officers range from 10 to 50 million Berries!"

"My God! Is this actually happening?"

"Pirates placing bounties on the Navy? What a joke!"

"Coo! The sky is falling!"

As people looked at the freshly delivered copies of The Totto Land Daily, dropped by the News Coos, they were stunned.

The newspaper listed the bounty amounts, the conditions, and the names of key World Government and Navy personnel. It even included the first set of bounty posters, featuring the Five Elders, the Fleet Admiral, the Admirals, and other top-ranking officials.

The colossal sums next to their names were shocking—numbers never before seen in the history of bounties.

Pirates, civilians, merchants, nobles, and royalty alike stared in disbelief at the bold, black-and-white headlines.

Instinctively, they rubbed their eyes over and over, re-reading the news again and again. The truth left them pale with shock.

"Boom… Boom…"

At that moment, in the first half of the New World, at G-1 Fortress, near an old, decommissioned warship:

A tall, young man was furiously pounding the ship's bow with his fists, using the massive warship like a punching bag.

Sweat streamed from him as he struck the ship with nothing but raw strength—no Haki, no special powers. Under his blows, the immense steel hull began to dent inward.

"Garp!!"

Sengoku the Buddha ran over, clutching a newspaper and about a dozen freshly printed bounty posters.

His face was urgent, and he shouted toward Garp, who was in the midst of his training.

"Something terrible has happened!"

"What's wrong, Sengoku?"

Soaked in sweat, Garp paused his punches and turned to face his close friend, surprised by Sengoku's uncharacteristic alarm.

"You're not one to panic like this."

"Take a look at these…"

Sengoku's expression was grave as he handed the posters to Garp.

"This… Aren't these the Five Elders?"

Garp glanced at the first few bounty posters and recognized the Five Elders' faces. At first, he was indifferent.

But in the next instant, his eyes widened, and his jaw nearly hit the floor.

"What? They've been bountied… 1 billion Berries?"

"1 billion? No, look closely—it's 10 billion!" Sengoku corrected him, eyes twitching as he pointed at the figure. "Check the others."

"10 billion? Is this some kind of joke?"

Stunned, Garp flipped through the other posters, his voice rising in disbelief.

"Fleet Admiral William at 5 billion Berries? Admiral Kong at 3 billion?!"

He paused, face darkening.

"Wait a second… Why are we on the list, too?"

Soon, Garp found bounty posters featuring himself and Sengoku, each with an equally absurdly high bounty.

"Not only us," Sengoku said seriously, "we're both listed at 2 billion Berries each."

"2 billion…"

Garp froze, his mind going blank, before turning to Sengoku in shock.

"What in the world is going on? Is this some pirate's twisted prank?"

"This is no joke!" Sengoku gritted his teeth, his expression more serious than ever.

"The Fallen Angel Pirates, under Totto Land's name, have issued these bounties through The Totto Land Daily. They've targeted all 120 World Government agencies and their personnel, and announced that the Hell Trading Company will pay out these rewards."

"From the top of the World Government—the Five Elders and the Celestial Dragons—to CP agents, government officials, and every Navy officer, from ensigns down to common soldiers, everyone has been bountied!"

"And the numbers are monstrous. This will create unimaginable chaos—just you wait!"

Sengoku could already envision the catastrophe ahead.

With every rank of Navy officer now worth a fortune, they were practically walking targets. Pirates, bounty hunters, and even ordinary civilians driven by greed would risk everything for the reward.

Worse still, the fear that some within the Navy might turn traitor for such wealth loomed over them like a dark cloud.

"That bastard Fallen Angel El…"

Garp growled, his face showing both shock and fury.

"Damn it… This is unspeakable!"

"Vice Admiral Sengoku, bad news!"

Just then, a panting subordinate rushed over, voice trembling:

"We've received word: Rear Admiral Buck, who took a supply team to a nearby island, was ambushed by a group masquerading as merchants! He was shot in the back and… he didn't make it!"

"What!?"
