Chapter 101: 2nd place—

Editor: OusSama.

[Golden Lion Shiki: Jiehahahahaha great! Roger, you can be resurrected. This world is boring without you. Think about it, after your resurrection, join me and together we will turn this world upside down. ]

[Whitebeard Newgate: Gurararara~ Roger, it looks like we can drink together again.  ]

[Dark King Rayleigh: Shanks, you will be targeted from now on, do you need my help?] 

[Red-haired Shanks: Hahaha you don't need to bother yourself Vice-Captain Rayleigh, we have enough strength to deal with this. In addition, Captain Roger wants me to resurrect Ace's mother, so everyone's wish to meet Captain Roger may not be realized. ]

[Dark King Rayleigh: Really Roger, you… , it's really complicated. ]

On the Moby Dick, Whitebeard glanced at Ace, who was a little stunned.

"Ace, are you all right?"

"Dad, don't worry, i'm fine… i'm just a little surprised." Ace shook his head, looking at the golden list with a complicated expression.

[Admiral Kizaru: Red hair, do you think we will believe you if you say this?] 

[Red-haired Shanks: I dont't expect you Marines to believe me. But if you plan on attacking us, you're always welcome to try. ]

[Golden Lion Shiki: What a joke! Shanks, with such a good item and you won't use it to resurrect Roger? Instead, you intend to resurrect an ordinary woman?] 

[Red-haired Shanks: I also want to resurrect Captain Roger but I also want to follow his wishes. If you want to resurrect Captain Roger come and challenge me but I will try my best to defeat you. ]

"Damn that Red hair." On the floating Sky Island, Shiki squeezed the glass in his hand.

Although he and Roger are enemies, he is also one of the people who admire Roger the most.

If this was not the case, Shiki would not have gone to the Naval Headquarters just because he heard that the Marines had arrested Roger.

At this time, Shiki was already considering whether to contest for Shanks's reward.

[Red-haired Shanks: By the way, my third place has this kind of predetermined reward so the first two rewards should be amazing. The second and first place should be Hawkeye and Rifan. ] 

Mihawk now owns Zangetsu and Shanks doesn't think he can beat the current Mihawk.

Even if he can, it will definitely end up badly for both sides.

Mihawk being in second place, Shanks has nothing to say.

As for Rifan, Shanks felt that he could not beat Rifan by relying on only his swordsmanship, not to mention that he had the powerful Zanpakutō.

How could such power not be ranked first?

–[Swordsman List], 2nd place, Dracule Mihawk, scheduled reward, [High-level Resurrection Ring].

—After wearing it, when encountering death, the wearer will be resurrected in a full state immediately; he/she can be resurrected at a preset location.

[Red-haired Shanks: Hmm, it's another resurrection item but compared to mine it seems that Hawkeye can only resurrect himself. ]

[Golden Lion Shiki: This is much more convenient than the previous life potion, it means he will have two lives. ]

[Flower swords Vista: Damn, a second life! Who doesn't want a second life!?] 

[Admiral Kizaru: If the ring only needs someone to put it on in order for it to take effect, it means it's not bound to the winner, anyone can use it. ]

[Dark King Rayleigh: You Marines are really something else, do you think Hawkeye will give you his reward? If you want to get rewards, how about relying on your own ability and challenge him?]

[Admiral Kizaru: "...." ]

Borsalino naturally wouldn't ask Mihawk to hand over the high-level resurrection ring. After all, Mihawk had already rejected Marines once not long ago.

Now, if they ask him to hand over the ring, it will definitely be the same answer.

"Sengoku, it seems your decision was right." Tsuru looked at Sengoku and said, "It's better not to revoke the Shichibukai title of Hawkeye."

"This way, we can avoid having another powerful enemy for Marines."

"If the Marines attack Mihawk who holds Zangetsu we can still arrest him but if he obtains that resurrection ring and we fail to arrest or kill him, after the resurrection of Mihawk, the Marines and World Government will face the mad revenge of Dracule Mihawk.

In the worst case, Mihawk may also join hands with the red-haired Shanks."

Hearing Tsuru's words, Sengoku nodded, took the den-den mushi from the communicator and dialed the number of the Four Elders.

Regarding the decision to invalidate Mihawk Shichibukai's status, he will discuss it now with the Four Elders.

In order to prevent them from sending an order to demand the reward of Hawkeye Mihawk directly like what happened with Rifan.
