"Yes, yes, we searched the entire town, and there was no one else. Mr. 8 has been dealt with. Mm, I understand, I'll handle it."
Gardino hung up the Den Den Mushi and strode back into the center of the crowd, saying, "Mr. 0's orders. If no rebellious behavior is found, then it will be like this for now."
"Finally, it's over."
The Bounty Hunters of Whiskey Peak Town breathed a sigh of relief, but as they looked at the wax figures in the center of the room, their expressions were still filled with fear.
Mr. 2 Bon Clay sat there and asked lazily, "Did Mr. 0 say anything else?"
Gardino glanced at the Bounty Hunters around him and said, "There's also the issue of the mayor of Whiskey Peak Town and the Intermediate Agents."
"We need to select Intermediate Agents?"
The Billionaires who had followed Gardino and Mr. 2 Bon Clay immediately became eager.
They wanted to become Agents, and the only way to advance was by filling vacant positions. Currently, there were about four Intermediate Agent positions missing, which meant four people would become Intermediate Agents.
"Whiskey Peak Town is fine for now. However, the matters concerning Mr. 5 and Valentine still need to be investigated, so the rankings will not be changed. According to Baroque Works' promotion method, subsequent vacancies will be filled from the front. Mr. 8's position will be taken by Mr. 9, who will then come here. Mr. 10 will take over Mr. 9. Since Mr. 11 has disappeared, Mr. 12 will take over Mr. 10, and then Mr. 13 will take over Mr. 11. This leaves four vacancies."
As Gardino spoke, he looked at the approaching Billionaires and selected two men and two women, then said, "You will take over the positions of Mr. 12 and Mr. 13, as well as Thursday and Friday. At the same time, Mr. 12 will serve as the mayor of Whiskey Peak Town."
"Yes."
The four selected individuals looked extremely excited.
Gardino added, "In addition, twenty Billionaires will remain, along with three ships and the carried food. These are Mr. 0's instructions."
"We will definitely complete Mr. 0's orders well," the newly appointed Intermediate Agents said loudly. The other Billionaires looked on with envy and some jealousy.
Next, Gardino arranged for personnel to stay behind, unloaded the food from the ships, and the next morning, the returning fleet set sail.
"We can't go back yet?" Mr. 2 Bon Clay said with dissatisfaction, sitting in Gardino's cabin.
Gardino took a sip of tea and replied, "Mr. 0 ordered us to search for traces of Mr. 5 along the way. We will head to Little Garden next."
"Then let's go."
Mr. 2 Bon Clay crossed his legs, rested his elbow on the table, and propped his chin with his right hand, asking, "I remember Little Garden being quite dangerous, right?"
Gardino placed his teacup aside and said, "There are prehistoric Dinosaurs there, and two Giants on the island. Not only that, but there's also a behemoth on the east side of the island, so we must be careful."
"Huh?"
Mr. 2 Bon Clay asked with some surprise, "There are Giants there?"
"That's right, Giant Warriors," Gardino nodded.
Mr. 2 Bon Clay shook his head and said, "Giant Warriors? Their strength..."
"Defeating them doesn't require brute force."
Gardino said dismissively, then added, "But don't worry, our mission this time is reconnaissance, not to fight them."
Mr. 2 Bon Clay nodded and said, "Then let's set sail for Little Garden."
Five ships headed towards Little Garden, leaving Whiskey Peak Town behind.
Just as the barrel cactus behind them slowly disappeared from view, a figure ran into the cabin, "Miss Christmas, Mr. Bon Clay, the ship, the ship sank."
"What?" Gardino immediately stood up.
"The ship sank? What are you talking about?" Mr. 2 Bon Clay was still sitting with his legs crossed, tilting his head to look at the newcomer.
The newcomer quickly said, "A ship was attacked by Sea Fish and was rammed and sunk."
"Sea Fish sank a ship? This... I'll go take a look." Gardino went up to the deck and took Miss Christmas onto the ship.
Under the gloomy sky, a B.W. ship slowly sank in the distance. Another ship nearby was approaching the B.W. ship, transferring people from it.
People on the ship were using Harpoon Crossbows and firearms to attack the sea surface.
But the next moment, the ship responsible for the transfer began to shake violently.
Gardino frowned and asked, "It's just Sea Fish, can't you handle them?"
"Attacked by Sea Fish?"
Mr. 2 Bon Clay came to the deck, suddenly bent his knees, and flew out, landing on the side of another ship. He then jumped again, leaping to the other side of the ship's hull, and then jumped out again.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh.
With a few leaps, Little Feng had jumped onto the attacked Sea Ship.
Boom.
After a loud bang, the Sea Ship began to sink.
"Mr. Bon Clay, the ship is sinking," a Bounty Hunter shouted.
"Underwater, this is troublesome."
Mr. 2 Bon Clay rubbed his chin. One of his eyes narrowed, and the other widened, as he pondered.
"Let's go back first."
Mr. 2 Bon Clay suddenly grabbed two Bounty Hunters and threw them towards another ship. The two flew in arcs, landing directly on the distant Sea Ship.
Mr. 2 Bon Clay continuously threw Bounty Hunters over, while the Sea Ship beneath his feet sank little by little, yet he showed no panic at all.
But after throwing six or seven men over, there was a loud crash.
The third sea ship was also attacked.
"Damn it."
Mr. 2 Bon Clay's face was grim, not knowing what to do.
"Mr. 3, you save them, leave the rest to me."
Gardino's ship slowly approached from a distance, moving closer to the third sea ship.
Whoosh.
Gardino jumped onto the third sea ship, placing his hands on the ship's side. In the next moment, countless wax liquids spread from his arms.
The wax liquid flowed down the ship's side, wrapping around the hull, and finally reaching the water's surface. It then solidified, becoming hard and forming a ring of planks around the ship.
Crash.
The third sea ship was hit again, completely smashed, and began to sink.
However, the solidified wax provided immense buoyancy, preventing the sea ship from sinking.
Seeing this, the bounty hunters breathed a sigh of relief. Over there, Mr. 2 Bon Clay continuously threw bounty hunters from the second sea ship onto this one.
Seeing the hull was stable, Gardino wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, "This should be enough."
"But what about that sea fish?" the short, fat Mr. Christmas stood there, leaning over the ship's railing to look down.
Gardino said, "See if we can kill it. Prepare weapons and wait for it to come."
But at this moment, the ship's hull vibrated violently again, and cracks appeared at the bow.
"It's trying to split the ship in half."
Gardino instantly understood what the sea fish was trying to do. The wax planks could provide buoyancy to the entire ship, but if the hull split in half, the ship would still sink.
So Gardino walked to the ship's bow and raised his arms again, creating wax liquid.
The wax liquid flowed into the cracks, then spread over the hull, enveloping it.
The wax liquid slowly solidified, sealing the cracks at the bow and making the hull even more stable.
"Have the other sea ships move closer. All bounty hunters should transfer to this ship and my ship."
Gardino shouted, not relaxing, but continuing to wave his arms. Countless wax liquids continued to surge out, spreading across the entire ship, forming a layer of wax. Then, the wax liquid seeped into the cracks near the waterline where the ship was leaking, solidifying and blocking the holes.
Boom.
Xia Qiu watched as the part of the sea ship above the water was covered in wax liquid. It then crashed into the bottom of the ship. After a loud noise, the wooden planks at the bottom broke.
But the hull did not sink. Not only that, but inside the hull, there was also solidified wax. Seawater could not penetrate, and it provided immense buoyancy.
Damn it.
Gardino's wax liquid, once solidified, had a hardness comparable to steel, making it incredibly tough.
Attacking this ship would be too difficult.
This ship couldn't be broken for now.
Xia Qiu still had some methods, but there was no need to resist with brute force.
First, he would destroy as many ships as possible.
Xia Qiu thought, not attempting to attack Gardino's ship, but instead crashing into Mr. 2 Bon Clay's Swan Ship.
