At the first half of the Grand Line, on the H-2 route, next to Bacolona Island, there is Spring Island, where plant life is blooming and there is nice warm weather.
Many people gathered on the golden beach.
Especially those beautiful women who are wearing cool clothes and showing their charming figures.
"Mr. Aramaki, the World Government seems to be very sincere..."
"It is said above that as long as you agree to join the Marines and serve the World Government, you will be promoted to the admiral as an exception."
"Marine admiral? It is really exciting!"
On a beach chair, a muscular, shirtless, green-haired man in swimming trunks leaned lazily on it.
What is surprising is that there is a tattoo that says "Double Lovers Suicide at the River of Death" on his chest.
Aramaki looked at the scene in front of him and said nonchalantly to the figure in a suit in front of him: "You are indeed very sincere... But I still have to think about it!"
"Then I won't bother you... Mr. Aramaki, we are waiting for your good news!"
The World Government agent in the lead smiled.
There was no excessive entanglement; he left Den Den Mushi behind and left with his subordinates.
"Hey, Marines..."
Watching these World Government agents leave.
Aramaki looked down at the Den Den Mushi in his hand, his eyes flickering.
He was a little moved.
After all, the position of admiral from the Marine Headquarters is indeed something that many people can only look up to.
Although he had strength and was also the user of the Woods-Woods Fruit, he always thought that he was not inferior to the Marines' Admiral, who also had a top-level Logia fruit user.
However, due to his personality, he was too arrogant and had no patience to slowly gain experience like other Marine officers and rise step by step.
So, even if he didn't want to be a pirate and didn't have the ambition to dominate the world, he didn't join the Marines.
Now, the World Government holds a large-scale world conscription. As long as he joins the Marines, he can be promoted to admiral of the Marines by exception. It is undoubtedly an opportunity.
For a while, Aramaki smiled and crossed his arms happily while lost in thoughts.
While leaning on the beach chair, he imagined his bright future after becoming an admiral of the Marines.
Whoosh!
However, at this moment, without any signs, a black spear suddenly appeared behind him and penetrated his chest with lightning speed, not giving him a chance to react.
"Cough!"
Even if he relied on his instinct and tried to dodge by turning into a wood in the first instance.
But the opponent seemed to have completely predicted his action, and he was a step slower.
Although he barely avoided the vital point.
But he was still pierced through the chest by a black spear covered with Armament Haki.
Whoosh!
Aramaki didn't care about his own injuries and rushed forward suddenly.
Then he turned around and stared at the strange shadow while gritting his teeth: "Damn it..."
"Huh..."
His right hand turned into a giant tree in an instant and slam down towards the shadow.
Boom!
Smoke and dust rolled.
Whoosh!
The shock waves kept spreading.
On the sea, the waves became even more turbulent.
"Ahh..."
The men and women who were on vacation here were shocked by the sudden change.
Looking at Aramaki, who was holding his chest, bleeding, and with branches and leaves growing all over his body, they screamed and scrambled as they fled in panic.
"Ah, you reacted quickly enough; no wonder the World Government is trying to recruit you as the new Admiral!"
Amidst the smoke, Luke walked out slowly.
Then he stared at Aramaki, his whole body exuding a murderous intent: "But unfortunately, you don't have such an opportunity!"
"Bastard, you..."
Blood was flowing from the corner of Aramaki's mouth.
He covered his chest, which was pierced mercilessly by the black spear.
He gritted his teeth and stared fiercely at the powerful figure in front of him; his expression was uglier than ever.
Aramaki's pupils shrunk sharply, and he obviously recognized the other party: "Are you... Obask Luke?"
He never thought that he had just been invited by the World Government, but the other party had already received the information and decisively attacked him.
He was extremely angry and frustrated.
Hiss…
Luke's body flashes with electric light.
The arcs bursting out of his body kept stimulating his nerve cells.
He had no intention of talking nonsense and directly attacked with full strength.
Whoosh!
The shadow on his right hand surged and turned into an extremely sharp spear.
"Hell Thrust: Horn Shadow Knife!!"
The next moment, an extremely sharp, cold light flashed, and then Luke's figure completely disappeared from Aramaki's sight.
Whoosh!
Accompanied by a piercing sound, a sharp spear pierced through the air.
Relying on his own strong Observation Haki, Aramaki barely avoided the attack.
But because he was injured, his movements were a little slow, and his shoulder was still scratched.
"Bastard, don't underestimate me!"
Aramaki yelled there in anger.
Then his whole body turned into a huge tree man, rooted in the ground: "Groves of Wrath!"
A large number of trees, like vines, soared into the sky, and from all directions, they grabbed Luke fiercely.
Whoosh!
However, Luke's speed was too fast. Before the vines touched his shadow, he had already disappeared on the spot.
"You became bigger? Hmm... It's just a bigger target!"
The terrifying spear tip directly tore a large number of vines and penetrated Aramaki's body.
Boom!
Blood splashed, and the huge tree man collapsed.
Swish!
But then, a very strange scene happened.
An inconspicuous seed took root and sprouted on the ground, growing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then it turned into a human figure. It was Aramaki himself.
Then, countless extremely sharp vines, entangled with high-level Armament, Haki rushed towards Luke with an overwhelming force.
Boom!
