North Blue.
On the endless sea, a ship without sails was racing across the waves.
"Hey, hey, Kuzan, slow down! The ship's going to fall apart!"
On the sail-less ship, Caesar Clown gripped the helm with excitement.
Originally, he had merely suggested having Kuzan serve as the ship's power source for daily training.
But he had never expected this little blue fatty to be so fierce once he entered the water.
"As expected of a Shichibukai clone. Looks like the sea is his true home!"
As Kuzan gradually slowed down.
Caesar Clown pulled out a nautical chart of the North Blue from his clothes.
"Oh, are we almost there? Noland the Liar's country, the Kingdom of Lubunil."
His finger traced the distance on the chart.
Turning around, Caesar Clown headed toward Roy's personal command room.
Bang!
He shoved open the wooden door.
Roy was carefully maintaining the two longswords in his hands.
"Roy, we're about to reach the Kingdom of Lubunil."
He dabbed a little blade oil onto a polishing cloth and carefully wiped the edges of Sakura Ten and Kogarashi.
Squinting slightly, he raised his head, still somewhat unaccustomed to the sunlight.
"Oh, that fast?
Then Caesar, I'll have to trouble you from here on. Keep an eye on Golden Lion. Once I find the doctor, we'll perform the operation immediately."
Setting down the polishing cloth, Roy looked up and spoke solemnly.
Yes, the reason Roy had come to the North Blue was to treat Golden Lion and restore his body to full health.
And his target was none other than the pirate possessing the power of the Op-Op Fruit, Trafalgar Law.
Don't ask how Roy knew where Trafalgar Law was.
As the deputy commander of CP9, the World Government's secret intelligence agency.
The intelligence department he belonged to
