Imu's Day Trip on the Red Line!

Imu finally decided to leave the treehouse Moon Chamber, because he suddenly realized that he seemed to have gotten himself into a dead end.

I haven't been to the Four Seas, the White Sea, or the Grand Line, but isn't the Red Line the same?

Furthermore, ordinary people aren't even qualified to come up here!

He could easily explore the Red Line first, and once he'd seen enough, he could probably kill quite a bit of time.

I've been incredibly bored these days.

For someone who had only been in this world for a little over a year, not having a computer or a mobile phone was incredibly difficult, and he didn't even have anyone to chat with.

Besides practicing swordplay, playing the piano, and reviewing reports every day, all I do is look up at the moon!

So he left Pangaea Castle and left Mary Geoise behind at an unimaginable speed.

"Call----"

For some reason, Imu let out a sigh of relief.

Then I took another deep breath, enjoying the fresh, natural air.

This doesn't mean he particularly disliked being in Mary Geoise.

He simply felt relaxed, both physically and mentally. At least for the time being, he no longer needed to feign indifference or worry about the World Government's rule.

"Oh, so the area right next to Mary Geoise is an Autumn Region!" Imu laughed as he glanced around at the surroundings.

He found himself in a red 'world', with palm-sized 'red snowflakes' falling and dancing above his head, and a thick carpet of red leaves beneath his feet.

As far as the eye can see, the mountains and fields are covered with fiery red maple trees.

Imu Earth Flow leisurely through the woods, enjoying the autumn breeze and the surrounding maple leaves.

At the same time, he recalled information about this Red Line.

The situation on this Red Line is somewhat like that of the islands on the Grand Line; it does not have the normal four seasons like the Four Seas.

Instead, it is composed of regions with different landforms and climates, ranging in size from hundreds of kilometers to just tens of kilometers.

So if you're hiking on the Red Line and always moving in one direction...

This can lead to a situation where one region is experiencing heavy snowfall, while another region is scorching hot and sunny.

For travel enthusiasts, this must be like paradise, right?

This isn't surprising, because back then, the Red Line was actually pieced together from islands along the Grand Line.

The Holy Land Mary Geoise is Spring Region, so the climate there is always sunny and warm with flowers in bloom.

"Ah, it would be so nice to have someone to talk to right now."

Imu arrived at the edge of this Autumn Region, looking at the snow-covered Iceburg that appeared before him, and murmured to himself.

But then again, even if someone were with you, what could you really talk about?

Given his current status, it won't be easy for him to find someone with whom he shares common interests.

As for someone to have an equal dialogue with, that's just a thought; if such a person actually appeared, I might not be happy about it.

Imu began to consider how to utilize this Red Line.

Although he appeared to be trying to escape the pressure, he ultimately couldn't let go of his concern for the throne.

"Such a large area, if we relocate people here, the population will definitely explode in a few decades. There's also a lot of land to grow food. It's such a waste to just leave it like this!"

In his view, it would be better to place the majority of the population on islands.

It is not only very inconvenient to manage, but also has poor transportation and a very unsafe living environment.

Those large islands are one thing.

The real islands face typhoons and tsunamis at sea.

That's truly gambling with lives; who knows how many islanders perish in these natural disasters every year?

But living on this Red Line is different. Although the seasons are fixed in each region, they are stable enough.

Moreover, the terrain here is extremely high, so there is absolutely no need to worry about tsunamis.

"Population, population, population."

Imu kept repeating the word.

Because he was well aware of how important this was for the future World Government.

Based solely on the Star Map and Star Gate he possessed, which were considered his own Golden Finger.

In the future, whether it is war or governance, an extremely large population will be required.

There must be inhabitants in other worlds as well.

However, they certainly cannot be used extensively in the early stages.

Local talent is the foundation!

Walking through the vast snowfield, he suddenly stopped, because he was bored again.

Look around; the scenery is nice, but there's not a soul in sight.

Occasionally, you can see snow rabbits and Snow Fox running around.

Ultimately, he wasn't someone who really enjoyed traveling.

He wanted to go out and see the world, purely out of curiosity, to see interesting people and amazing things, but the scenery on this Red Line was too normal, too ordinary.

So what do I like?

Watching movies, anime, and novels; playing games; eating delicious food; and occasionally playing sports like table tennis, badminton, or basketball.

"It seems that once the world situation stabilizes, I'll have to find a way to enrich the entertainment industry in this world."

Suddenly, Imu thought of someone—a little guy who dreamed of becoming a big singer, a superstar, and loved glamorous scenes.

"At this point in time, that kid should be in the Sabaody Archipelago. He's a promising talent worth nurturing, but forget about movies and games for now. We could try him out in sports, though."

Imu stroked his chin, pondering as he turned and headed back the way he came, finding the sport much more interesting than the mundane scenery.

Isn't exercise also a kind of game?

"But I can't play alone, can I?"

[Poluporu, Polluporu]

Just as he was thinking about which sport to try when he got back, his Den Den Mushi rang. This was a call that only the Five Elders could make when he was out.

"Lord Imu, the entourage from the Marine Headquarters and CIPHER POL has been finalized. Would you like to meet them now, or wait until we depart?"

That voice belonged to the old man with the mustache, Imu was now all too familiar with.

"Let's talk about it when we leave," Imu replied calmly. But just as the other party was about to end the call after receiving the answer, he casually asked a question.

What are their names?

"My lord, the Marine Headquarters will be sending a female Rear Admiral named Gion. While her strength is average, she is exceptionally beautiful and skilled in all the arts of a geisha. I believe she will bring you enjoyment on your journey."

"Gion?"

Imu raised an eyebrow. It was indeed a familiar name, and the choice of person was quite good.

"And the other one?"

"It's Stussy, now a member of CP9. He's also good-looking and quite capable, especially skilled in intelligence gathering and assassination. We think he can handle many small matters for you."

After hearing the identities of the two attendants...

Imu's interest was piqued, and since he was feeling bored, he immediately said:

"Send them to see me. Also, get a tennis court and equipment set up near Pangaea Castle as quickly as possible."

"Uh, yes!"

Topman Saint Topman Warcury, far away in Mary Geoise, was full of questions, but he still immediately agreed respectfully and then gently put the receiver back to end the call.

Imu became somewhat excited, a smile spreading across his face.

"Finally, something to do!"

But his smile vanished immediately, replaced by his usual coldness and aloofness.

The next second, he vanished from his spot, his entire body shooting towards Mary Geoise like Formless bolt of lightning.

A huge thank you to reader "Confused Three-Legged Cat" for the 400 Qidian Coin reward! Thank you so much to Black Cat Three-Legged Cat" for your encouragement and support!

This chapter is meant to show that the protagonist is not just a tool, but a living, breathing person with his own joys and sorrows.

Personally, I hope the protagonist can be more vivid and have some growth potential, rather than just a cold king sitting on Empty Throne.

After all, I am just an ordinary person, and I believe that everyone reading this book is also an ordinary person. Therefore, while maintaining the protagonist's outwardly sophisticated image, I will also write about his likes and dislikes in various aspects.
