Cipher Pol

The recruit became even more nervous when he was noticed by Leng's gaze.

He was, after all, a notorious One Piece from the North Blue. It was impossible for a new recruit not to feel intimidated by getting close to someone like him.

As he poured wine for Long, his hand trembled involuntarily, causing the wine to spill onto the pristine white tablecloth.

This scene instantly turned Xi Si's smiling face dark.

"Colonel Xi Si... I..."

The new recruit was also shocked and hurriedly tried to explain.

Bang! A Pistol was drawn and pointed at the recruit... The naval officer, Xi Si, pulled the trigger without any mercy.

The bullet pierced the young recruit's forehead, killing him.

Immediately, another soldier calmly stepped forward, poured wine for Oboro again, and disposed of the body.

Obsessive-compulsive disorder... a perfectionist? Long laughed.

"Did it affect your mood?"

Xi Si twirled his Pistol, a smile returning to his face, and grumbled, "Seriously... the quality of new recruits these days is getting worse and worse."

"No."

Oboro began to eat.

During his meal, Xi Si kept describing the current 'environment' in the North Blue, including the 'maneuvering' between the various powers and the Navy. While the Navy couldn't control the North Blue, its influence and deterrent power remained... In other words, no matter how much trouble the North Blue caused, the Navy was still the undisputed 'boss'. Because if the situation escaped the World Government's control, it would inevitably attract the attention of high-ranking Navy figures... the consequences of which no one could bear.

Long naturally understood the implication in his words.

After a moment, Oboro elegantly wiped his mouth, finishing his meal. "It was indeed delicious."

During their time at sea, the One Piece, including Oboro, ate rather coarse food. Aside from readily available vegetarian dishes, they simply grilled or boiled meat, which had little flavor. For One Piece, the most important thing was alcohol.

"We can begin talking."

"Oboro said."

"Your Hell Pirates are currently the fastest-growing and most threatening emerging force in the North Blue... Many non-member countries have planted your flag, and you have also built factories on many landmasses to produce weapons and contraband... You must have made a lot of money, right?"

Xi Si finally Heaven-Opening.

"Really."

Long nodded.

"I'll take 30% of the profits!"

Xi Si chuckled and immediately held up a few fingers. "With me here, I can ensure that your businesses continue to operate safely in the North Blue. Not only that, but relying on our navy's intelligence and advantages, we can also silence some enemies who covet you. How about it? This should be a pretty worthwhile deal for you, right?"

"Um."

Long crossed his hands together, rested them on the table, and propped his chin up.

Looking at Xi Si with interest, he suddenly asked, "Your appetite isn't very big... which is different from what I expected. However, I'm curious... do Marineford know about what you've been doing in the North Blue?"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

"Don't worry about that... This is the North Blue, the most special sea area among the Four Blues. With enough money, you can do things... far beyond your imagination. Moreover, with me here, no matter what trouble your Hell Pirates, I can do my best to suppress it, so that you don't attract the attention of the World Government."

"In North Blue, business is the key. Only when everyone makes a profit can we achieve win-win cooperation."

Xi Si's original aristocratic demeanor turned into a mercenary air when he spoke these words.

This is his true nature.

"If I refuse... a great battle will be inevitable." Oboro smiled slightly.

"You have a choice."

Xi Si narrowed his eyes.

To defeat the Hell Pirates, he practically moved all the troops from the entire base over, showing his absolute confidence.

"Before coming to the island, I wanted to refuse... because someone like you isn't worthy of discussing cooperation with me. But given your somewhat special status, I can do you the honor of meeting you. If one day the Hell Pirates leave the North Blue, I do need someone to help me keep an eye on things here and secure my assets." Oboro leaned back in his chair, speaking without any pretense, "You're a very good candidate."

His words made Xi Si's expression turn cold, as if he was about to explode in anger.

But Oboro continued to say to himself, "It's a pity... I was originally going to make you my dog, but after coming here, I discovered some very interesting things."

At this point, Oboro's peripheral vision suddenly caught sight of several naval soldiers standing to the side, acting as waiters.

Do you recognize these people?

Long looked at Xi Si.

"What do you mean?"

Xi Si clenched his fists, stood up, and prepared to overturn the table.

"Idiot."

Long chuckled silently.

"I guessed right... these guys must have just joined your team recently, right? As new recruits... or...?"

"What exactly are you trying to say?"

"Avoiding us from being targeted by the World Government? Ha... You think too little of the World Government. They already know everything about us that they should know. And you, a parasite of the Navy, are about to die and you still have no sense of vigilance."

Oboro continued with a smile, "These people next to you... are all agents of the World Government!"

Upon hearing this, Xi Si's pupils instantly contracted.

Dorans and Dom behind them tensed up instantly.

"Don't worry about them, they're not after you, they're after me..."

Long spread his hands and explained.

They were exposed? When? They were perfectly disguised.

How could they be seen through by the God Slayer? When Oboro's gaze shifted to the group, the well-trained agents remained remarkably calm, displaying exceptional mental fortitude... But as Oboro revealed their identities one by one, the group finally revealed their true colors, forcibly suppressing their inner doubts and surprise.

The instant Oboro finished speaking, they exchanged only a glance and moved simultaneously... not to attack Oboro, but to run away!

Because their mission was only to investigate the God Slayer and the Hell Pirates, not to engage in conflict with them.

Moreover, they were well aware of the terror of the God Slayer.

With their individual strength, they have no chance of winning...

But... without Lone's orders, before the agents could slip away, Dorans and Dom split up and blocked two of them.

"Trying to run?"

Dorans grinned maliciously.

"The king... hasn't given the order yet, so who gave you permission to leave?"

Dom stared coldly at the man in front of him.

Xi Si initially thought Oboro was talking nonsense, but the current situation undoubtedly proved that what Oboro said was true.

"World Government... agent?"

He was a little dazed.

Long remained seated with his legs crossed, and simply snapped his fingers.

The two agents, who had already shot nearly a hundred meters away, suddenly stopped and knelt down. A force as heavy as Mount Tai Crushing the Top suddenly burst out from their bodies, causing them to spit out blood.

The ground beneath his knees was dented by his legs.

Another person, clinging to a sliver of hope, attempted to escape through the sky using the Moon Step technique from the Six Powers, but in an instant, he plummeted down like an arrow.

It crashed heavily to the ground with a thud, kicking up a cloud of dust.

"CipherPol..."

Long read aloud, "From zero to nine... which department are you from?"

"First, we can rule out CP0... and not CP9 either. Judging from your strength... you're probably not core members of Cipherpol either..."

"You guys are pretty quick..."

"However... isn't it a bit too frivolous to send someone of your caliber to investigate?"

Every word Long uttered was like a hammer blow striking the agents' hearts.
