As the seat of the highest authority in One Piece, the headquarters of the World Government is undoubtedly very grand. Although Lei Luo has never seen One Piece, he can still feel the solemnity and elegance of this place from the surrounding palaces.
Marigioa is located between the first half and the second half of the Grand Line, at the top of the Red Continent. It is one of the two ways to reach the New World. Speaking of which, Lei Luo learned the above information from the exchanges with passers-by.
Although, he didn't understand the meaning.
"The style of another world really makes me feel refreshing. It will be very comfortable to settle here, right?" Bing looked left and right like a country bumpkin, with curiosity and appreciation on his face, and couldn't help but start talking to him again.
Lei Luo spoke.
"You are really big-hearted." After glancing at Bing, Lei Luo ignored her this time and just followed Luo Hou silently. A few minutes later, the three of them passed through guard checkpoints and arrived at the center of an empty hall.
Here, they met five old men with different appearances, four of whom were wearing crisp suits and one was wearing a white kimono and holding a sword. They were none other than the supreme leader of the World Government, the Five Old Stars.
"Where is Im Hudson?"
As soon as they met, Luo Hu asked vigorously. A white-bearded five-old star bowed to him and replied in a low voice: "Master Qi, Master Yimu has been waiting for a long time. I will take you right away."
past."
Luo Hou raised his hand forward, indicating to lead the way. Wulao Xing did not dare to neglect. Someone activated a mechanism, and they heard the ground rumble, revealing a dark and long secret passage, leading straight down.
Bing was about to follow Luo Hou and Lei Luo in, but at this moment, the kimono five-old star stopped her, pointed at Shi Ji, who was dragging Bing's hand, and asked kindly: "Madam, are you
Do you want to exchange the golden lion for the reward?"
"Reward? What's there?"
Thinking of the pirate fleet under Shi Ji's command, Bingruo realized something. He stopped temporarily and looked at the five old stars curiously. He saw the other star thinking for a moment, and then he smiled and said:
"Normally, it's Bailey, which is the money you understand. But from the looks of it, you probably won't be able to use the money here, so if you have any needs, please put them forward and we'll be able to meet them.
It will definitely satisfy you.”
Bing's heart moved, and he threw Shi Ji aside, pointed at the latter and said: "This guy knows a special ability called "dominance", which seems to be learned through practice. I want to know, does anyone here know it?"
"
"Do you want to learn domineering?" Seeing Bing nodding, Kimono Wulaoxing said without any hesitation: "This is not difficult. I will send someone to teach you later. Do you have any other needs?"
"Uh... let me think about it..." Bing rolled his eyes, not expecting Shi Ji to be so valuable, so he racked his brains to recall the bits and pieces of information he had captured along the way, and planned to pick some more local specialties.
On the other side, Lei Luo, Luo Hou, and the four Five Old Stars passed through the underground secret passage one after another and came to the front of a pyramid-shaped building. On the throne at the top, sitting on the throne, was a mysterious yellow-robed man wearing a pointed hat.
.
"Lord Im, your guest has been brought."
The four Five Old Stars knelt down and saluted at the same time, with respectful expressions. The short, middle-aged man they called Lord Im carelessly waved his hand downwards and said in a deep voice: "You guys should step aside first."
"yes."
After the four Five Old Stars left, Im stood up from the throne, walked down the steps, came to stand in front of Luo Hou, and his first words were: "Today is a troubled time, and there are a lot of troubles that need to be dealt with."
"Probably... more than expected."
"I will only kill the pre-arranged targets for you. You can take care of the rest by yourself." Luo Hou replied seriously, and at the end he added meaningfully: "If your ability proves to be insufficient to control the situation,
So……"
"My clan doesn't mind changing partners."
Im was silent for a moment, and his eyes happened to glance at Lei Luo, so he changed the topic and asked in a relaxed manner: "Who is this? Is he also a member of your tribe? It seems that I have never seen him before."
Lei Luo was about to reply, but Luo Hou answered first: "His name is Kozuki Ichiro. He is a native of your planet and a new subordinate I have recently recruited. After the mission is over, he will leave with me.
"
"Guangyue? Are you from Wano Country?" Im was a little surprised, but quickly adjusted his mood, smiled and stretched out his hand to Lei Luo: "Your Excellency Guangyue, I didn't expect that this world still hides people like you.
The strong one."
"It seems that my information channels are really insufficient."
Lei Luo calmly shook hands with Im, without explaining or arguing, he just acquiesced to Luo Hou's introduction to his identity. His intuition told him that there was probably some game here that he didn't understand.
It's best to wait and see what happens.
"Okay, let's stop talking. You should have prepared the specific information about the target, right?" Faced with Luo Hou's urging, Im nodded, took out a stack of papers from his arms, and handed it over.
"In the past hundred years, certain high-level reincarnations have frequently provoked the world government. They seem to be no longer satisfied with hiding behind the scenes, so it is time to kill these people and eliminate the chess pieces of the Lord God Space to further erode this world."
"Counting the time, our clan members are about to arrive on this planet. In order to prevent the higher-ups in the clan from learning about the situation here, the best way to deal with it is to let them disappear forever, just like last time, the last time.
.”
"In addition, it is the original royal bloodline of this planet..."
Im pointed at a wanted notice that happened to be turned over in Luo Hu's hand. It was a middle-aged man with black tattoos on his face. He said: "Monkey D. Dorag, this guy is giving me a headache.
It’s best to deal with it as well.”
"Well, I understand." Luo Hou didn't ask who this Dorag was. He nodded lightly and handed all the target information to Lei Luo. He looked at Im again and said calmly:
"Just leave these people to us. Where are the things?"
"Here." Im turned over his sleeves and took out a strange-looking fruit with black and white lines from nowhere. He handed it to Luo Hou and said with a feeling of pain:
"Well, the fruit of time, it took me a lot of effort to find it."
After Luo Hou took it, he threw it to Lei Luo without looking at it, and then asked: "This is just a part. Where are the things I want most? Don't tell me you didn't bring it with you."
"The other ones, I will give them to you after the task is completed."
Seeing Luo Hou's expression being unkind, Yi Mu was not to be outdone. He pointed at the Fruit of Time in Lei Luo's hand and said, "The original transaction content did not include this. I think about you, and you have to think about me."
"I don't want to see the events of the last thousand years again."
"That's because Po Zhi didn't work carefully enough. What does it have to do with me?" Luo Hou frowned slightly, looking unhappy, but Im still insisted: "I only know that you both belong to the same force."
"you……"
At this time, Lei Luo interjected disapprovingly:
"If you pay later, just pay later. He can't run away anyway."
