Since the Sabaody Archipelago incident, the whole world has been closely watching the Cifer.

Morgans, in particular, considered Cifer his benefactor.

As soon as the other big shots at sea become a little quieter, the press will fall into a slump, and he doesn't want to focus on those big shots to report on trivial matters.

And every time that time came, that man would cause trouble, and it would be so serious that it would shake the entire ocean.

Now, his attention to Ulquiorra has far surpassed that of the other Sea Emperor.

Although the news that referred to the man as the fifth emperor of the sea was also authorized by the World Government, Morgans genuinely regarded him as an emperor.

Moreover, he is the emperor of emperors.

He received the news the moment the other side occupied the pirate island "Hive" and learned the name "Las Noches".

Then Morgans realized that Ulquiorra and his crew never seemed to refer to themselves as a pirate crew, and that "Black Wing Pirates" didn't sound very impressive.

He also guessed that the other party never intended to be a pirate; he was simply tacitly considered a pirate after being put on a bounty by the World Government.

As the protagonist of a news story that has generated a strong response, how could that man's team not have a resounding name!

So Morgans took it upon himself to publish, in the latest issue of the newspaper, not only the news of Ulquiorra's gang taking over "The Hive".

They even boldly used the name "Las Noches" and referred to Cifer as the "Lord of Las Noches," leading people to the misconception that their team was called Las Noches!

A week after the new newspaper came out, in Rocky Port.

"Move everything down here and engage in friendly trade with the local people!"

The massive fleet completely blocked the docks of Rocky Port, and every ship flew the flag representing Cifer.

On the largest of the ships, Bater was giving instructions to his subordinates with a beaming smile.

In just about 10 days, he had gathered all the materials needed to build Las Noches and was heading toward the New World.

This was the most glorious time of his life. Before, he had always tried to avoid other people when sailing the latter half of this ocean.

Now, with Mr. Cifer's flag flying, any ship at sea, no matter whose it is, will have to keep its distance from him.

He had considered things very carefully. After all, the "Hive" was deep in the New World, and it was difficult for ordinary people to trade, so he simply brought many items from the outside world with him.

Making money is something you can't be careless about no matter where you are; that's what proves Mr. Cifer wasn't wrong about you.

He even wondered if one of Las Noches's officers would come to greet him later.

But what he didn't expect was...

"Now it looks quite proper, Bater."

Bater's footsteps had just landed on the dock when a voice he had longed for and admired rang out.

"So... so dazzling!"

He looked up and saw Cifer standing on the rooftop of a tall building, his figure slightly overlapping with the sun, as if he were glowing.

"Mr. Cifer! I am unworthy to have you come in person..."

He rushed forward and leaped up, trying to grab Cifer's leg, but he missed.

"Let's skip the formalities. Did you bring what I asked for?"

"We brought them all! They're all on the ship behind!"

"Those all belong to Mr. Cifer's influence!"

As if showing off, Bater pointed to the large fleet of dozens of ships in the harbor.

"Very good. Send someone to move it to the center of the island. The architects are already waiting there."

As a subordinate, Bater was absolutely satisfactory to Cifer.

"Learn!"

With a wave of his hand, Bater began to move supplies to the island, and his subordinates who remained on the fleet started to move supplies there.

Many civilians, seeing that it was Cifer weapon, put down what they were doing and stepped forward to help.

The goods brought by Bater also caused a stir in the port's trading area.

"How's the development going in the New World?"

Looking down at the densely packed crowd, Cifer spoke.

"Speaking of which, I am truly ashamed, because the Underworld here in the New World is too murky, and I can only be considered to have barely entered it..."

Bater bowed his head at this point.

Just as there are emperors at sea, there are also kings in every realm of the Underworld.

They might not care if you mess around in the Paradise, but if you try to extend your reach into the New World, they won't let you have your way.

To put it bluntly, even Mr. Cifer's name doesn't carry much weight in their eyes; at most, it just means they won't deliberately make things difficult for him.

"No need to rush, there's still plenty of time."

Cifer had anticipated this and did not blame Bater, who had already done a good job in just a few months.

In the eyes of those in the Underworld, the World Government and the Four Emperors were nothing more than objects of interest.

If it were so easy to interfere, the Four Emperors would have already taken action.

"Um... Mr. Cifer, why don't I see any of the Las Noches executives?"

Bater looked around, a little curious.

"They've all gone to cultivate themselves."

Cifer replied calmly, explaining why he had come in person: it was just too boring.

His companions had already gone to two nearby isolated islands to practice their cultivation.

Enel, Ichisei, and Tyrant served as their teachers, providing them with comprehensive training.

As a doctor, Chopper naturally didn't want Chopper to only train in combat, as that wasn't his profession or the original intention of Cifer voyage.

Of course, Cifer is not Luffy; he has his own strength and doesn't need to suffer unnecessarily.

Therefore, with the bear's help, I accompanied Chopper on a trip to the Kingdom of Torino, and after some friendly communication, I temporarily borrowed some of their medical books.

Once Chopper has mastered the technique, Cifer will go and switch to other characters.

At other times, Cifer would take turns going to the two islands to train the three teachers.

He only came back today because Bater was coming, so he just wanted to see him.

"So that's how it is... indeed, the strong have all undergone countless trials!"

Bater couldn't help but imagine that the members of Las Noches had probably gone through countless battles to reach their current level.

"Mr. Cifer! The navy is here!"

At this moment, civilians ran towards them, pointing and shouting in the direction of the port.

"The Navy? They actually dared to attack Mr. Cifer?!"

Bater was somewhat surprised, because logically speaking, they shouldn't have dared to directly attack the Sea Emperor's headquarters.

"They're here to deliver money."

Cifer jumped down, but unexpectedly, the person who came this time was someone he knew.
