Everything Settled

"Mr. Ulquiorra! We've reached an agreement!"

Seeing so much treasure piled up in front of him, Uzi Satori that money was not a problem at all.

Don't worry about potential losses; as long as the money is in place, everything will be resolved.

What they need to do is to recreate the structural design of the entire Las Noches based on the content played on the Den Den Mushi, and then restore it, or even surpass it!

"So what is it?"

"Hold on!"

Uzi revised the long shopping list in his hand, adding a lot more to the quantities of all the materials, and then handed it to Cifer.

Cifer glanced at it briefly before Vice Admiral the list to Uzi, who was looking on with confusion.

He had never heard of any of the materials mentioned above.

"Mr. Ulquiorra, what does this mean?"

Just as he was wondering what was going on, Cifer pulled another Den Den Mushi out of his pocket.

After fiddling with it for a bit, I picked up the microphone, and within moments, a familiar voice came from the other end:

"Mr. Cifer, you've finally found me!"

The Den Den Mushi) cried vividly, with tears streaming down its face, clearly indicating that Bater on the other end was extremely emotional.

Meanwhile, on a small island in the Paradise, in an office of a casino, Bater was sitting with tears streaming down his face, covering the entire table.

Since their hasty parting a few months ago, the man had only asked him to send someone to handle matters related to the Qing Kingdom, and then there had been no further contact.

Until recently, he saw in the latest newspaper that Mr. Cifer had been hailed as the fifth emperor of that terrifying sea.

He then posted newspapers in all his rooms so that he could see the man who had saved his life every day.

But the other side is rising higher and higher, and even after I have obtained the fruits, I am only just beginning to reach into the New World.

Bater was ashamed of his inefficiency, and coupled with the other person's lack of contact, he thought he had been forgotten.

Upon receiving the long-awaited phone call, I couldn't help but burst into tears.

"You're crying so badly, Bater. Try to calm yourself down first."

Even Cifer's expressionless face was unconsciously twitched by Bater.

"Yes!"

Bater sniffed hard, trying to hold back her tears.

"This time, I have something important to arrange for you."

Cifer's first words filled Bater with energy, as if a pent-up energy from years of pent-up feelings was finally about to be released:

"Mr. Cifer, please speak freely. I will go through fire and water for you!"

"You don't need to go through fire and water, you just need to get some materials and deliver them to the 'Hive' in the New World."

Cifer was already used to his somewhat sycophantic and exaggerated speaking style.

"'The Hive'? No wonder he's Mr. Cifer!"

As a seasoned veteran of the Underworld, how could Bater not know about Hive? It was the headquarters of a legendary pirate!

But our own boss, he said he would take it down, and he did. That's the real "Sea Emperor"!

"I'll have someone else tell you the specifics."

Cifer beckoned with his finger, and Uzi understood. He stepped forward with the list, took the Den Den Mushi, and began to tell the other party the materials and quantities he needed.

There were many things, and they were quite varied. The two of them spent nearly twenty minutes just exchanging ideas.

After they finished communicating, the Den Den Mushi returned to Cifer's hands.

"You shouldn't have any problem handling these materials, right?"

Cifer didn't know how much it would cost, but given the current capabilities of Bater, they figured they wouldn't be short of money.

"Don't worry, Mr. Cifer, leave this to me. With my current financial resources and connections, getting these things is no problem!"

Bater patted his chest, feeling fortunate that he could finally be of use.

"Mr. Cifer, is there anything else you wish to instruct me on?"

His words carried a hint of expectation; he hoped the other party could offer him more help.

"Don't underestimate this batch of goods. They are the raw materials for building my palace. Once the Las Noches is completed, it will become the most prominent landmark in my base."

Bater's thoughts were easy to guess: he was afraid of being abandoned, so he desperately wanted to show himself off. Cifer simply made the matter sound more important.

"What? It's something so precious! I will collect it as soon as possible and deliver it to the 'Hive' myself!"

Bater slammed his hand on the table and stood up.

That's that person's palace! I never imagined I'd be involved in the construction process.

"The road to the New World is still a bit bumpy. Since you're coming, then fly my flag."

"You can hang it up from now on."

This sea area is very different from the Paradise. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Cifer took the initiative for the first time to suggest that the Bater be registered under his name.

"Mr. Cifer ~"

The Den Den Mushi burst into tears again, and Bater on the other end was also in tears.

For him, being able to hang a flag and not being able to hang a flag are not the same thing.

That was to tell the whole world in a grand and honest way that Bater belonged to that man!

"You can cry for now, I have things to do."

Cifer promptly hung up the phone to avoid getting his hands on Den Den Den Mushi's tears and snot.

"That guy named Bater seems to be a very emotional person."

I've never met him in my life, but just from listening to what he said, I felt that he would be a loyal subordinate of the captain.

"I'd say I'm a big fan of Cifer."

Robin, sitting to the side, rested his chin on his hand and simply answered, "A lifetime."

"Now that things are settled, we should find a training ground."

Cifer had no intention of using this place as a training ground for his companions.

According to Zephyr, due to the notorious reputation of "Pirate Island" and its extremely harsh environment, several nearby islands are uninhabited.

That's the place that's truly suitable for them to grow up in.

Several days later, Marineford, Marineford.

"That bastard, he actually turned what originally belonged to Rocks into his base of operations?"

After Koby brought the dying Ochoku back to Marineford, Sengoku looked at the intelligence in his hand and was about to slam his fist on the table again.

"That guy has really grown to an incredible level!"

For once, Garp didn't have his usual joking demeanor; he knew better than anyone how terrifying Rocks was.

Looking back, he actually felt sorry for Ulquiorra being besieged by the World Government; now he just thinks he was ridiculous back then.

"Vice Admiral Garp, Fleet Admiral Sengoku, that man said that Ochoku's Bounty must be delivered, or he will attack Marineford!"

Koby kept emphasizing how terrifying Cifer was, especially his companions, who could be described as completely overwhelming the legendary Great Pirate.

And then there's that blind man; the destructive power of the wind pressure he generates with a casual slash is no less than that of dozens of artillery shells exploding at the same time.

"Another troublesome guy... Anyway, I already had the Bounty ready, so let him have it!"

Sengoku rubbed his furrowed brow. He didn't want to give it up; that would only embolden the other party and increase their power.

But that madman, if he can say it, he can definitely do it.

Without thorough preparation, going to war with that guy would result in huge and unnecessary casualties.

"Las Noches... that sounds more like a terrifying organization..."

Garp looked at the latest newspaper in his hand and muttered to himself.
