Graves Runs Rampant, the Five Kage Assemble

Several days later.

The Royal Palace of the Goa Kingdom.

"What did you say? The Buster Call?!"

The old king collapsed in terror onto his throne.

Thanks to his longer lifespan and the increased authority granted to the king of World Government Member States, the old king knew more detailed information about the Buster Call.

The terrifying legends that had circulated among the Affiliated Nation kept replaying in his mind.

The old king suddenly jumped down from his throne, raised his scepter, and slammed it down on his useless son-in-law's head:

"You're not trying to eliminate bandits, I think you're trying to eliminate me!"

Horton Tucker watched the monkey show with amusement.

He only cared about when he could get his hands on that high-performance cruise ship that could go to sea; the trivial matters of a rural country were none of his concern.

Stelly clutched his forehead, yelling in pain.

"Your Majesty, please stop fighting. I'm only doing this for the sake of the kingdom's nobles, Your Majesty..."

"Don't call me King. From this moment on, you are the King of the Goa Kingdom!"

The old king shoved the scepter into Stelly's arms, then quickly turned to Horton Tucker and said:

"Sir Envoy, the Victory Parade is currently docked at Royal Pier. Let's set off immediately!"

"What? Don't you want your country and your people anymore?"

Horton Tucker asked with a cold smile.

"Nation? People?"

The old king shook his head and said dismissively, "What is that?"

"Having ruled the Goa Kingdom for decades, I've invested in dozens of hotels in Loguetown and commissioned people to purchase a large amount of fixed assets in Mary Geoise, all to prepare for a situation like today!"

The old king said smugly, "Now that the Goa Kingdom has become a lawless territory for the Naraku Mountain bandits, as a nobleman, I naturally have to hurry up and make my way in. Mr. Horton, I'll need your help to find me a good house in Mary Geoise!"

As he spoke, the old king took a gem the size of a pigeon's egg from his sleeve and placed it in Horton's hand.

Yoshi!

Horton Tucker narrowed his eyes and nodded in approval.

"Old Sali, you certainly understand the situation. What's the point of being a nobleman in this rural place? Going to Mary Geoise to be a lackey for the Celestial Dragons is our greatest honor!"

"Yes, yes, I'll send someone to inform my good-for-nothing son immediately. We'll all head to Mary Geoise and become dogs for the Celestial Dragons!"

With that, the former king, Sali the Elder, and Horton Tucker, accompanied by their servants, headed toward the royal docks.

"Me, I still have me!"

Stelly, clutching the scepter, hurried after her. "I want to go to Mary Geoise Adams too!"

"Screw you!"

Old Sali lived up to his reputation as a shrewd old thief; he threw a punch that struck Stelly squarely in the left eye socket, knocking Stelly to the ground.

"Someone has to take responsibility for the mess that's happened in the Goa Kingdom, and that person is none other than the new King of the Goa Kingdom, Ruteruk Stelly!"

Stelly gripped the old man's trousers tightly. "But my wife, your daughter Princess Sally Nandcarnet, hasn't gotten on the train yet!"

"Oh yeah, you reminded me!"

Old Sali nodded and said to his attendant, "Quickly, go and fetch Her Highness the Princess as well. A widow might be welcomed in Mary Geoise..."

With that, old Sally kicked Stelly aside and disappeared at the end of the corridor.

Stelly's gaze grew cold. He caught up, gripped the scepter tightly, raised it high, and brought it crashing down on his father-in-law's head.

When!

Old Sally should be grateful that she had just promised Horton Tucker to buy the house for her.

Just like those professional brokers in London, procuring property for nouveau riche from afar is always the most profitable business.

For the sake of money, the CP2 agents under Horton Tucker saved old Sali's life.

CP2 is considered one of the weaker factions within the Cipher Pol; their agents are far inferior to those of CP9 and CP0.

But in a place like the Goa Kingdom, dealing with a frail-looking nobleman is a piece of cake.

Old Sali delivered another left hook, knocking his son-in-law to the ground, and then hurriedly bowed and thanked the special envoy.

"Your security skills are too poor; you won't last long in Mary Geoise and Sabaody!"

Horton Tucker offered a rare, insightful piece of advice.

"Your Excellency, please rest assured. I have a super-powerful female agent here who can kill in a mere 0.01 seconds. She's practically a spy goddess. It's just that she was with my son just now, so I didn't bring her with me. I'll call her over right away."

Half an hour later.

Royal Pier.

This dock is not a seaport dock, but a dock on an inland river.

However, because the Guriguri River is very wide and deep, many seagoing vessels can sail directly in.

There is no wall that cannot be sealed.

The news that King Sally and his son were preparing to open a brothel spread like wildfire throughout the palace and the noble quarters.

Even before the royal cruise ship set sail, all sorts of nobles had gathered at the dock.

They identified themselves and scrambled to climb onto the Royal Caribbean cruise ship.

Although it's unclear what kind of disaster will befall this country, whether it's an earthquake, a volcanic eruption, or an attack by powerful pirates, following the cunning old Sally and her son Kairun is always the right thing to do.

Princess Sally Nandcanette wept and refused to board the ship, wanting to stay with her husband.

Watching the princess, who could score six or seven points, and Stelly, who felt even one point was too much, Horton Tucker couldn't help but sigh at how extraordinary talent truly was...

But at this moment, there's no time to worry about that.

He ordered CP agents to separate Stelly from his wife and forcibly abduct her to the ship.

As a result, the other nobles scrambled to cling to the ship's railings and ferrets, trying to climb aboard.

"Beat them! Beat them hard!"

At Horton Tucker's command, the remaining CP agents used Six Powers Shigan to stab at the arm clinging to the ship's side.

In an instant, accompanied by screams, those nobles who usually acted arrogantly towards commoners were screaming as they fell into the river.

"Your Majesty, you cannot abandon us! I am the head of your mother's family!"

An old man, leaning on a cane, dressed smartly, and with a meticulously groomed white beard, started the conversation.

Other nobles who considered themselves to have some status all stated that their families had intricate connections with the royal family and should not be abandoned.

Old Sali, of course, scoffed at this.

Space on the ship is limited; it's not even enough to hold all of our gold and silver jewelry, so where would we put them?

Old Sali, feigning importance, stood on the deck and, under the protection of his bodyguard, a female fairy, delivered a speech:

"I am no longer your king. Just an hour ago, I handed over the throne of the Goa Kingdom to the Outlook Family. If you have any questions, go find him!"

"As for why I left this country, that's purely a private matter for the Sali Family. I can only say, no comment!"

"But I've heard that the air in Mary Geoise is sweet, without the filth of the poor or the complaints of small-town students, only elegant parties, the beautiful sound of musicians playing the violin, and well-dressed, spotless neighbors..."

"So, farewell to the Goa Kingdom, farewell to the East Blue..."

Just as old Sali was imagining his wonderful future life in Mary Geoise, he faintly heard a synthesized voice in his ear:

"Anyone who dares to provoke me, I will end their life! The number one Graves in the Japanese server, aaea armor penetration burst damage rune setup is ready -- wegame."

"Huh? What's that sound?"

Old Sali looked around in confusion.

His bodyguards remained motionless, while the beautiful female bodyguard was exchanging flirtatious glances with her son.

Everything seemed perfectly normal.

Bang!

Old Sali turned around in surprise and saw a masked man with a cigar in his mouth, a shotgun in his hand emitting wisps of smoke.

When did you board the ship?

Old Sali clutched the bloody hole in his stomach and asked incredulously.

"I just strolled up here."

Graves tossed aside his cigar and, under the stunned gaze of the security guards, calmly refilled it.

With a bang, the second bullet hit its mark, and critically.

Old Sali exploded instantly, like a clay Buddha statue struck by a sledgehammer.

Before everyone's eyes, this long-established nobleman who had ruled the Model Kingdom of the East Blue for decades was reduced to a pool of blood mist.

"Ah!"

The beautiful bodyguard screamed and fainted from fright.

Graves turned his gun around, aimed it at the head of the former prince who was equally terrified and disoriented, and gently pulled the trigger.

Bang!

Another giant watermelon exploded.

Only then did the CP agents, who were launching a fierce attack on the nobles attempting to board the ship, finally arrive, albeit belatedly, stepping on their "shaved" shoes.

Having completed his mission, Graves didn't linger. He immediately used Flash to escape the battlefield, followed by a smoke grenade and a quick draw, disappearing into the chaotic docks.

"Damn it, who is that guy?!"

Horton Tucker felt he had said that sentence countless times over the past few days.

This damned East Blue, this damned Goa Kingdom, how could it be such a chaotic mix of good and bad?

But none of that matters now; the navy's giant warships will arrive soon.

A heavy artillery barrage covering almost the entire island will quickly wipe out all the monsters and demons.

Thinking of this, Horton Tucker could only feel sorry for the homeowners who had died.

But then I thought, if the homeowner dies, wouldn't the purchase price be mine?

Just as Horton Tucker was overjoyed and about to count the gold and silver treasures being transported on the ship, a row of huge black shadows suddenly appeared on the wide river.

Wow!

The banner of the Navy's justice flies high.

A fleet of ten colonel-class warships from headquarters cut off the entire river.

However, just like the real Buster Call, although there were ten warships, there were only five colonels at headquarters.

The five men stood at the bow of five of the warships, arms crossed, on the surging river and in the fierce sea wind, like war gods returning, looking down upon all living beings.

We have come to uphold justice!

"Eliminate all unnecessary evil!"

"Restore peace and order to the world!"

"My name is— Twitch, the Root of Justice!"

"My name is— Smoker, the White Hunter!"

"My name is Garen, the Sword of Justice!"

"My name is— Hina, the Black Cage!"

"My name is Darius, the Dragon-Guarding Axeman!"

"Come on!"
