Yang Wu sent Luo Feng, Hong, and Thunder God into the universe for a life-and-death adventure while he oversaw Earth’s mass migration to planets across the Milky Way. After several migrating spacecraft strayed from their routes and were destroyed by space pirates, Yang Wu warned every nation not to deviate again.

• Luo Feng, Hong, and Thunder God told Yang Wu they needed the danger of a Cosmic Mercenary assessment to spur their progress, and Yang Wu sent them off with Babata and a spacecraft, a D4 Grade Laser Gun, and three Life Fruits.
• Yang Wu continued training while Earth’s nations prepared to migrate, and Jia Yi announced that Huaxia Country would focus on rebuilding rather than encourage mass migration.
