Another God Valley! And an Unexpected Situation!

Beehive Island.

Ochoku's expression was grave as he looked at the Den Den Mushi in front of him. His voice was hoarse. "Hey, Roa, was it really necessary to go to that extent?"

"Why not just deal with it when the World Government is actually about to take action? Why not proactively devise a plan to control the World Government?"

Isn't that a bit too extreme?

"Oh, when did you become so timid and cowardly, Uncle Ochoku?"

A clear, youthful voice came from the other end of the phone, but to Ochoku, it only aroused him immensely.

"If we don't inflict a heavy blow on the World Government once and for all, they'll keep watching us like hyenas."

"Instead of remaining constantly on guard against them, let's strike first and give them a hard time."

"You bastard—"

Ochoku's lips were twitching.

The only person in the world who could be this crazy is that kid, Roa.

Even that Rocks wasn't nearly as reckless back then.

Even in the final battle at God Valley, no one, including Rocks himself, could have predicted that it would escalate to that point.

"All right,"

Ochoku could only sigh helplessly, "What do you want to do?"

Although he was extremely annoyed, what could he do when that bastard Roa had caught him red-handed?

If he doesn't attack the World Government, Roa will soon come to attack him with Golden Lion.

"We need to give the World Government a chance,"

Roa laughed and said, "An opportunity that makes them think we'll definitely be tempted to take action, and it has to be an opportunity..."

It will make you feel like there's an opportunity for both us and the World Government to suffer heavy losses.

Is this guy reciting a tongue twister?

Ochoku's eye twitched.

However, he immediately understood what Roa was trying to say.

That has to be an opportunity that puts World Government at ease, and at the same time makes them feel that they will feel at ease as well.

"Then this opportunity will be hard to find."

Ochoku sighed.

"This isn't something you should be worrying about, is it?"

Roa's voice carried a heavy laugh, "The World Government might not trust your idea; let them worry about it."

"You just need to tell them to hurry."

Ochoku paused slightly, then thought about it for a moment, and it seemed that was indeed the case.

Of course, the World Government needs to formulate the plan; otherwise, why would they willingly fall into a trap?

"Of course, you can't just ignore everything. You need to be assertive, or the government might notice something's wrong."

"You don't need to say anything more."

Ochoku snorted coldly. "It's just acting, isn't it? You're making it sound like anyone can't do it."

"Alright then, I'll just wait and see. Uncle Ochoku, please don't disappoint me!"

With a relaxed laugh, the person on the other end hung up the phone.

Ochoku took a deep breath, his eyes filled with an inexplicable gleam.

What a disgusting brat!

They completely disregard him!

What did they take him for? A dog they could summon and dismiss at will?

Otherwise, we should take this opportunity to cooperate with the World Government and get rid of that brat, Roa!

However, this thought did not linger in Ochoku's mind for long, and he soon sighed in dejection.

If Luo Ye were really that easy to catch, how could he have been so arrogant for so long?

Putting everything else aside, that kid's intelligence gathering ability is simply outrageous.

They even knew the absolute secret that the World Government wanted to cooperate with them.

Since that's the case, it seems there are no other options.

Without much hesitation, Ochoku immediately called Silver Axe and John. After a careful discussion, the three good friends decided to do as Roa suggested.

At least for now, Roa doesn't seem to intend to do anything to them, even knowing that they are colluding with the World Government.

But the World Government is a different story.

If Roa is truly eliminated, will they still have any value to the World Government?

Both sides are bastards, but Roa is slightly better.

Moreover, there might actually be an opportunity for both sides to suffer heavy losses.

So Ochoku dialed the number left by the previous CPO.

His request quickly reached the ears of the Five Elders.

"This guy's in a hurry, isn't he? He wants to make a move against Roa and the others so soon?"

In the Five Elders' office, within the Room of Authority of Pangea Castle, Satan sneered, "That's right. There's no such thing as friendship among pirates; deceit and backstabbing are the norm."

"Ochoku's request was that we offer a sufficiently enticing offer at a suitable time, enough to lure Roa and the others over."

The long-bearded Mars said calmly, "The problem is what kind of opportunity won't arouse suspicion from Roa and the others, and what kind of temptation can truly attract them all."

In the spacious office, the five people who held the highest power in the world were all somewhat silent.

Roa is undoubtedly a very cunning fellow, and even with Ochoku's help, it won't be an easy task to fool them.

At that moment, Ju Peter, stroking his golden beard, suddenly spoke up, "How about another God Valley?"

"God Valley?"

Warcury's voice suddenly rose, "You mean—"

Ju Peter said, "Let's hold another Celestial Dragons hunting tournament, it's been a long time!"

The other four members of the Five Elders' eyes lit up instantly.

Since the God Valley Incident nine years ago, the Celestial Dragons Hunting Tournament, which is held every three years, has not been held for two years.

After all, too many people died that time.

Even the arrogant Celestial Dragons couldn't help but become somewhat frightened.

But wouldn't holding a hunting tournament like the one at God Valley now be the perfect opportunity?

"As long as we prepare sufficiently tempting prizes and leak the news, I'm not worried about those guys not being tempted!"

Nusjuro nodded approvingly, "That's indeed a good idea! That Roa guy is even more insane Rocks! Rocks dared to attack God Valley, so he might very well start another operation!"

"And we have very good reasons to hold this hunting tournament!"

Ju Peter continued, "We suffered a great humiliation in Logue Town, so the Knights of God need more manpower. We'll use this tournament to select talented individuals from among the Celestial Dragons!"

I agree!

Mars nodded in agreement. "Indeed, I can't think of a better way."

"Same,"

Satan nodded in agreement, "Then let's do it that way!"

"Good!"

Warcury looked at his four colleagues, "If we're going to lure Roa and the others here, we'll have to offer a sufficiently valuable reward!"

"Let each family bring out some of their treasured items. Although it's just to lure Roa and the others here, this hunting competition needs to be authentic enough."

"Of course!"

The other four Five Elders nodded solemnly.

We absolutely cannot disappoint Lord Imu again, otherwise, I don't even want to think about what will happen to them next.

"However, there is still one problem,"

Mars, as if struck by a sudden thought, spoke with a serious tone, "Even if we manage to lure Roa and the others here, we'll still need Ochoku others to truly keep them here."

"But how can we ensure that Ochoku and the others are on our side?"

Although both sides have promised to cooperate, such promises are worthless.

The Five Elders hesitated once again.

Unlike Harald, whose greatest weakness is his nation, pirates are inherently untrustworthy.

Although they had leverage over Ochoku, it was impossible for them to completely trust these pirates.

How can we ensure that Ochoku and others are truly on our side?

The Five Elders were at a loss for what to do.

But at that moment, a voice suddenly rang in their minds.

"Useless indeed. In that case, I'll personally take action."

"Lord Imu!"

The five old men immediately knelt in a row; this seemed to be a conditioned reflex for them.

Was Lord Imu actually eavesdropping on their meeting?

Warcury shuddered and quickly said, "Lord Imu, how could we let you go in person? We'll figure something out soon!"

"Too verbose."

The elder's voice suddenly turned impatient, and the pain he had experienced many times before descended upon the Five Elders once more.

The five people trembled like leaves, but dared not utter a sound.

"Roa —they must die, M., there can be no more mistakes."

"Yes!!"

The five men could only tremble as they slammed their foreheads heavily against the ground.

Lord Imu has already said so, what more can they say?

We had no choice but to obey.

But has Lord Imu really come to hate that guy, Roa, to this extent?

That's right, he's the only sinner in eight hundred years to have made Lord Imu suffer a loss!

Everyone says Roa is petty, but in reality, Lord Imu isn't exactly forgiving either.

"Ochoku's closest ally is that guy named John, right?"

"Yes, Lord Imu!"

Calamity City.

Of course, Roa was unaware of this conversation that took place in Mary Geoise.

All he knew was that shortly afterward, he received a call back from Ochoku.

"Nailed it!"

Ochoku's voice carried a hint of lighthearted laughter, "Roa, guess how the World Government plans to lure you over there?"

"Wow, that was fast?"

Roa couldn't help but be somewhat surprised, "Could it be that the World Government had already formulated a plan all along?"

"Uncle Ochoku, stop keeping me in suspense and tell me, what is the World Government planning to do?"

"Hahahaha! Hey! Roa! Can you believe it? They're actually planning to do another God Valley Incident!"

Ochoku suddenly burst into laughter, "The next Celestial Dragons Hunting Tournament is about to begin, and I heard they're preparing incredibly generous prizes for the winner!"

"Ah?"

Roa was genuinely taken aback.

Then.

Hahahaha!

Roa also burst into laughter.

He had been trying so hard to hold back, but how could he possibly tolerate something so ridiculous?

"No way! This can't be true! Nine years ago at God Valley, they took care of the captain, and now they want to use the same method to wipe us all out? Seriously, aren't they underestimating us a bit?"

Using the same move twice? You're really being looked down upon!

"In short, that's the situation. The World Government should already be making intensive preparations for the hunting competition."

Ochoku asked, "Roa, what are you planning to do now?"

"Such an interesting thing must be shared with everyone right away!"

"I'm laughing, "Roa said.

"You can reveal this, but—"

Ochoku's voice carried a hint of hesitation.

"Don't worry, Uncle Ochoku, you did a great job, I'm very satisfied with it, so of course I won't reveal that matter to Uncle Shiki," said Roa.

If Uncle Shiki knew that his defeat against the Roger Pirates was largely due to Ochoku's machinations, he would definitely chop Ochoku.

"That's good."

Ochoku breathed a sigh of relief.

Then.

Roa quickly created a chat group and invited all his allies to join.

"Roa! Mother, Mother!"

Charlotte Linlin's voice came first, "Is it time to keep your promise?! You said it would be soon, but you've kept me waiting for ages!"

"Hahaha, I'm sorry, Aunt Linlin,"

Roa smiled and apologized, saying, "I've been a bit busy lately and haven't had time for that."

I went to the moon, and during that time I was completely out of contact with the Blue Sea, so of course I couldn't keep my promise to introduce Aunt Linlin to Harald.

But.

"Now is the time!"

"It's a very interesting thing to connect everyone," Roa said, "And Harald will be joining in, so this is a good opportunity to introduce him to you."

You little brat!

Charlotte Linlin scoffed, "So you mean if I don't participate in your event, I won't get to see Harald, right?"

She even began to suspect that Roa had made that promise before, just for this very reason!

Hahaha! How could that be?

Roa just smiled, "It'll just be delayed a bit, until I have time."

"Snort!"

Charlotte Linlin snorted.

"So, Roa, what exactly happened this time?"

Kaido's voice carried a hint of anticipation, "Hehehe! Something that would make you contact everyone specifically can't be something trivial, right?"

"Well, let Uncle Ochoku handle this matter."

Roa said with a smile.

"Ochoku?"

The Golden Lion's voice rang out, "What's going on?"

"The World Government hates you to the core, but they can't find you, so they contacted me,"

Ochoku succinctly, "I hope I can defect and help them eliminate you."

"What?"

Kaido's voice suddenly rose, "Is that so? So, you betrayed our alliance?"

"If Uncle Ochoku had really betrayed us, then this phone call wouldn't have happened."

Roa said with a smile, "Uncle Ochoku told me about this right away."

"I testify."

Silver Axe spoke, "That tells us too."

"Snort,"

The Golden Lion responded with a cold laugh, "Whether you revealed it voluntarily or were discovered and had no choice but to explain, you know the answer yourselves."

"Hahaha, we're all allies, don't be so harsh, Uncle Shiki!"

Roa laughed and said, "In short, the current situation is that Uncle Ochoku has reached an agreement with the government on the surface, and he will help the World Government deal with us next."

"The World Government is preparing to hold another Celestial Dragons Hunting Tournament, just like the God Valley back then, using tons of prizes to lure us in! Sounds interesting, right?"

So, the second God Valley?

Kaido's voice was filled with excitement, "Interesting! I certainly can't miss something this interesting!"

"So, Roa, you mean Harald will also be involved in this operation?"

Charlotte Linlin still loves giants.

"That's right, the World Government is also trying to win Harald over, but he'd rather help me."

Roa said calmly.

As for why they're willing to help you, don't ask.

"But Roa,"

Golden Lion simply said indifferently, "Even if Ochoku and Harald tricked them, the World Government will definitely come out in full force this time."

"That's right,"

Then Red's voice rang out, "Even if all of us combined, it wouldn't be easy to go head-to-head with them. Don't forget about that monster woman."

"So, I didn't say we were going to participate in that competition."

Roa's voice was full of laughter, "How about we cause some destruction in Mary Geoise? Drop a few islands or a bunch of meteorites from the sky. The Celestial Dragons, who have been at the Apex of the World eight hundred years, should learn a lesson, right?"

The Divine Knight and the Five Elders are practically unkillable; fighting them is just asking for trouble.

To truly inflict pain on the World Government, tangible damage must be caused.

"The World Government has already made its move; if we don't respond, wouldn't we be looked down upon?"

"Moreover, this operation will unite us even more. From now on, the government shouldn't try to win over any of us anymore, right?"

"Oh?"

The big guy's voice suddenly became meaningful.

That's true. In that case, no one could betray you anymore, right?
