At 12:23 AM, the bright crystal chandelier illuminated the Authority Room the Five Elders had finished discussing matters Sea Star Homeworld.

Topman Saint Topman Warcury looked at Shepard X. Shepherd Ju Peter and said, "You guys should contact Doflamingo as soon as possible. It's okay to delay the matter of the King of Shipping, but our Construction Division urgently needs something."

"Good."

Shepard X. Shepherd Ju Peter Saint nodded, then handed the four documents sent from CIPHER POL headquarters to Zambalong V. Saint Nusjuro, who was closest to him.

"This is intelligence sent back by CP9 from the Star Gate World. Take a look, there's a very shocking discovery!"

"Oh?"

Zambalong V. Saint Nusjuro an eyebrow in surprise, took the item, and passed it to Topman Saint Topman Warcury beside him, and then passed it on in turn.

The four of them began to silently read the contents.

The first part of the intelligence report states that Laskey and his team later discovered eleven dark purple corpses infected with the Living Dead Virus.

However, five of the bodies inside had their hearts destroyed, and one head lay to the side; these were truly dead, unable to open their eyes even when fed blood.

The document also included several photos that clearly showed the extent of the heart damage.

"This is clearly a bullet hole!" Zambalong V. Saint Nusjuro judged decisively.

"That's right. This shows that people in the New World are capable of manufacturing and using firearms. This is indeed very important intelligence."

Marcus Saint Mars, who was in charge of the Academy of Sciences, became serious.

"According to experiments conducted by the Biochemical Research Institute, the Heart Membrane of the Living Dead in this world requires two shots fired in quick succession from an automatic rifle, both hitting the same spot, to penetrate it."

"But the Living Dead in our world require four or more shots. The question now is, how powerful are the firearms in this world? Is it possible to penetrate them with a single shot?"

Shepard X. Shepherd Ju Peter St. shook his head and said, "Unfortunately, so far, CP9 has only encountered the Living Dead, not a single living person, not even a dilapidated village or town building. It's really strange. But the shocking discovery I was referring to isn't this. Please continue reading."

The other four looked at each other in bewilderment and continued to turn the pages. When they reached the last two pages, the contents of the paper began to look strange.

Because this is clearly a letter written in Wano Script.

Although the grammar is a bit strange, the general meaning is still understandable.

After all, their letters are generally written in Wano Script.

What does this mean?

Jaygarcia Saint Saturn looked up in confusion, and the other three also looked at Shepard X. Shepherd Ju Peter Saint with puzzled expressions.

"This is the letter that Laskey and Mata's group found inside the clothes of a Living Dead corpse."

"?"

"!"

"?!"

Topman, Saint Topman Warcury, and the others were stunned. Their eyes widened involuntarily as they quickly looked down to examine the contents of the letter again.

"You mean there's also Wano Script in another world?"

"This, this is impossible!"

Shepard X. Shepherd Ju Peter remarked, "I was shocked at first, but upon reflection, the people in this world look exactly like us, wear clothes, probably even have guns, and their writing system is similar, so it seems understandable."

In the mainstream writing system of Sea Star, there are two types of writing: one is English Script, used in official documents, professional books, reward notices and other formal and serious occasions; the other is Japanese, used in newspapers, letters and other informal Wano Script.

Wano Script, as the name suggests, is a script that is said to have originated in the Wano Country.

As for English Script, well, of course there's no Britain in this world.

As for why there's English Script, you can only ask the Creator.

Hearing Shepard X. Shepherd Ju Peter's explanation.

The other four could only grit their teeth and accept this fact, while the former continued.

"Based on this letter, which is presumably from the wife to her husband, we found several useful pieces of information."

"First, those Living Dead are called Kabane. Second, the place where the wife is is called Sugaya Station, which should mean post station. Third, the husband who received the letter, that is, the corpse, is a 'Samurai'!"

He paused for a moment at this point.

"However, the meaning of 'Hayajiro' mentioned inside is still unclear, but this already confirms that there are indeed cities with a large population of people."

At this moment, Zambalong V. Saint Nusjuro, dressed in a white kimono and wooden clogs, carrying the Shodai Kitetsu, said coldly, "Wano Script, Samurai, it seems the culture of this world is very similar to the style of Wano Country."

"Indeed, we just don't know how strong the Samurai are here," Topman Saint Topman Warcury said with a slightly heavy tone.

[Poluporu, Polluporu]

Suddenly, the Den Den Mushi (a type of Den Den Mushi) rang in Shepard X. Shepherd Ju Peter St.'s arms. Without bothering to hide it from others, he took it out and answered, asking, "What is it?"

"My lord, Laskey and Mata have discovered railway tracks on a plain. They plan to explore along the tracks and there's a high probability they'll find a town inhabited by living people!"

"Knew."

Shepard X. Shepherd Ju Peter Saint hung up the call, put the Den Den Mushi back in his pocket, and crossed his fingers in front of him, saying, "What do you think?"

"Railways, I remember they're often used underground to transport minerals," Topman Saint Topman Warcury, "But I've never heard of railways used on the surface."

In the Sea Star World, since the Red Line is off-limits to inhabiters and the area below is mostly islands, there's no need for long surface-rail trains.

"However, I heard that the Sea Train being developed in Water Seven requires the construction of floating tracks connecting the various islands. Could it be that the mode of transportation in this world is a ground-based rail train?" Marcus Saint Mars speculated.

"It's possible, but the fact that they can manufacture rails and trains shows that this world's level of civilization is quite high!" Jaygarcia Saint Saturn remarked.

Topman Saint Topman Warcury said, "Let them continue their investigation. We don't have enough information yet. Let's consider our attitude towards this world once we understand about 70-80% of its situation!"

As for what attitude is, everyone present knew perfectly well.

"Alright, it's late, go back to sleep."

[Boom!!]

Just as he was about to adjourn the meeting, a huge roar suddenly sounded outside the window, and the strong air vibration even shook the Hari in the window to create a dense network of cracks.

"What happened!"

Zambalong V. Saint Nusjuro stood up, unleashing a powerful aura.

"It's outside, in the Social Plaza!"

Shepard X. Shepherd Ju Peter rushed to the window and looked down. The next second, his pupils suddenly contracted, and a dense layer of cold sweat seeped from his forehead. He muttered to himself in a low voice.

Something terrible has happened.

In an instant, Mary Geoise was completely alarmed in the dead of night, and a large number of Holy Land Garrison hurriedly converged on Pangaea Castle.

At the same time.

CIPHER POL members, dressed in black, darted about rapidly under the moonlight, starlight, and lamplight, each leaving a long afterimage in their wake.

[Poluporu, Polluporu]

The Den Den Mushi rang again, but this time it was the one on the coffee table. Topman Saint Topman Warcury quickly picked up the receiver, but before he could speak, he heard the other end say...

"Lord Imu orders that his interest must not be disturbed!"

"Mihawk?"

The Five Elders looked at each other in bewilderment.

Regarding the language Wano Script systems used in the various worlds of this book.

If the work explicitly features English Script, Japanese Script, or other languages, such as on newspapers or other objects, then the language Wano Script should be set to be compatible with Sea Star.

However, if no explicit English Script, Japanese Script, or other written languages have appeared, and the existence of alternative writing systems and otherworldly settings is confirmed, then setting the language Wano Script as incomprehensible to the Sea Star will increase the difficulty of intelligence gathering. In this case, language-related Devil Fruit abilities or organizing scholars to conduct research would be necessary.
