Three-Pronged Advance

"Thank you~ Then I won't be polite!"

After expressing his gratitude, Cobra straightened his clothes and then took a few steps forward, standing not far from the throne among the Division Commanders.

"Cifer, I want Alabasta to join Las Noches."

This is one of the purposes of Cobra's visit.

Since the Mary Geoise incident, he has seen through the true face of the World Government and has made some guesses about the truth of the world, so he chose to have the country withdraw from the Affiliated Nation.

But without government protection, a country must find a new patron, otherwise it will only quickly go downhill.

Sabo member of the Revolutionary Army, tried to persuade him to join the revolution, but the Revolutionary Army's policy toward the country was basically to incite war and resistance.

Alabasta had only recently escaped Crocodile's control, and the country's situation had only just begun to improve in the last two years. He was unwilling to let his people fall into hardship again.

Las Noches is currently the most worthwhile force to join, besides the World Government.

"Great idea, then what?"

Cifer is quite optimistic about Cobra, but he needs to receive some benefits in return.

"Um...every year I send people to deliver our local specialties to Hachinosu ..."

Cobra was a little confused. He King Riku and the others that Las Noches only considered whether the territory was tolerable when it was acquired, and basically all that was required was to hand over some local specialties each year.

"Isn't your daughter quite good? Let her manage Alabasta for you, and you come and help me manage the other islands."

Cifer is very interested in overthrowing the World Government.

However, Cifer was not interested in the subsequent reconstruction and management.

The world is vast, and the ocean is boundless. Cifer wants to go and see it with his companions.

"Eh~ That's it?"

Cobra thought the other party wanted something special, but it turned out they just wanted him.

He was already a thorn in the side of the World Government, and regardless of whether the person in front of him could win in the future struggle, he would be the one Im wanted to eliminate.

Thinking about it this way, following the person in front of me actually offers a glimmer of hope.

"Also, Im seems to be lusting after the bodies of your Alabasta royal family, so it's best not to go back yet."

Cifer tapped his fingers on the armrest of the throne, a reminder to Cobra.

"What? But the people still..."

"Do you want Im to succeed?"

Before Cobra could finish speaking, Cifer interrupted him.

Although it's unclear whether Im simply wants a younger body or something else, Cifer is happy to cause him trouble whenever he wants to do something.

"In the meantime, I'll have to trouble you to let Vivi and me stay in Hachinosu for a while."

Cobra made a decision to first entrust the country to the ministers, who were all excellent people.

"No problem."

Cifer gestured with his finger, Barto instantly understood. He stepped forward and led Cobra outside, leaving them their lodgings to be his responsibility.

"Cifer, take me with you! I also want to help defeat Kaido. I made a promise to the people there that I would definitely go back!"

Inside the main hall, only the people from Las Noches and Ace remained. The latter was an old acquaintance and was the first to speak, expressing his thoughts.

He promised to go to Wano Country again to liberate them.

However, when he made the suggestion to his Old Man, he was repeatedly rejected, which made Ace feel depressed because he always thought that Wano Country was still waiting for him.

But now that his friends are about to attack Wano Country, how could he be left out!

"Then you've come at just the right time. We were just about to set off for Wano Country."

Cifer leaped down from the throne and stood beside Ace, like a parent with a child.

"It's finally time for General Chopper to make his move!"

Chopper jumped up excitedly; after so long, he finally had a chance to make his move.

"Yay~ Hahaha~ It's just a little mudfish."

Enel didn't take this trip to heart at all. Ever since he saw the clash between Cifer and that Big Mom, he felt that the Western Emperor was nothing special.

He was also eager to see how his battle against Kaido would go. Even if he couldn't win in a one-on-one fight, the outcome would be uncertain.

"No, this time, you will stay in Hachinosu."

But just then, a sentence from Cifer interrupted Enel.

"What! The captain set sail but left his first mate at base camp? You bastard, are you afraid I'll steal all your thunder?"

Enel wasn't angry; he simply took a few steps forward, poked Cifer's chest with his finger, and spoke with a teasing tone.

"There was a big commotion a few days ago, and now that Cobra and his daughter are here, I'm afraid some scoundrels will be eyeing this place if I leave."

Cifer looked into his eyes and gave him the reason to stay.

Of all the officers in Las Noches, Cifer believed that only the first two squad leaders were capable of easily guarding this place.

"Yay! Hahahaha! That's interesting!"

Enel transformed into lightning and sat upon the throne of Cifer:

"Then you may go! The most crucial fortress, Hachinosu, is entrusted to the God!"

Seeing how easily he was fooled, Cifer planned to continue with the arrangements, but Xiong spoke up at this moment:

"Cifer, it seems like there's going to be some trouble with Vegapunk. I'd like to go there."

A hint of worry appeared in the bear's eyes.

Just recently, he inexplicably received a contact from Stussy. Seemingly afraid of being overheard, she only said one sentence:

"Kum, Vegapunk has lost his usefulness to the World Government!"

My friend has multiple identities, including being a member of the World Government's intelligence agency CP0, so her intelligence capabilities are beyond doubt.

Most importantly, Vegapunk was like a father figure to her, and she wouldn't joke about something like that.

Vegapunk is a good friend of the bear and also the one who saved Bonney, giving her and her father a new life. For both reason and duty, he had to go through this ordeal.

"Of course, but the plan will need to be changed again. The Las Noches has no shortage of high-end combat power."

Cifer stroked his chin, then looked at the white-haired girl beside him:

"Nolan, go prepare enough food for several days so we can eat on the road."

"Okay... wait?!"

Nolan was momentarily confused. Judging from Captain Cifer's tone, it seemed that he didn't intend to let him go to Wano Country either.

"Enel, Kuzan, I'm leaving Hachinosu to you two. If anyone attacks, you can deal with them as you see fit."

"Nolan, you go with Kuma and Bonney to Future Island, take Vegapunk away, and then come to Wano Country to find us."

Nolan has the Vivre Card of the others and can also open the Garganta, making her the perfect companion.

Apart from these five, Ace and the rest of the executives will go to Wano Country Cifer to give the people there a double liberation, both physically and mentally.
