As the first rays of sunlight slanted across the sea, the entire Elbaf seemed to be gilded, its towering trees, higher than the clouds, boasting crowns so lush they formed a canopy that covered more than half the island.

This was Elbaf in winter.

The very top of the great tree remained a vibrant green, while the parts below were covered in pristine white snow. Occasionally, accumulated snow would slide off the branches, resembling an avalanche.

This wasn't a metaphor; it was actual snow falling from the branches of the Adam Tree, crashing down like an avalanche.

"Waaaaahhhh~"

Several figures clad in white suits with dark ties and masks were tossed about in the avalanche. They only breathed a sigh of relief after they had run a considerable distance.

"As expected of the Giant Kingdom, even their avalanches are so unexpected."

"I heard the giants don't welcome outsiders."

"Hmph, their opinions don't matter. This world belongs to us. They survive in our territory without paying taxes. If you ask me, the government should send a large army to wipe out these giants."

"."

The figures in white suits were discussing this in the shade, until the one in the lead spoke.

". I will reiterate, our mission this time is to contact the 'Holy Mother' Carmel and to avoid any conflict with the giants."

"What if we're discovered by the Giant race?"

"There's no possibility of that."

The man in the white suit glanced at his subordinate.

"If such a situation arises, you either commit suicide or kill the giant to silence them. There is no third option."

The man in the white suit, Rock Stuart, was an intelligence operative of the CP Organization, which was a secret intelligence agency affiliated with the World Government, responsible for investigating all affairs of the world.

And unlike CP1 through CP8, which were publicly known.

Rock Stuart belonged to CP0.

Directly subordinate to the "World Nobles," the Celestial Dragons, it was known as the "Celestial Dragons' strongest shield" and the "World's strongest intelligence agency."

As for why Rock Stuart was in Elbaf.

It was because he had received news.

The Pirate crew that had been opposing their CP Organization for the past few decades.

The White Wolf Pirates had disbanded!

When Rock Stuart first received the news, he thought it was a smokescreen deliberately released by White Wolf Magnus.

After all, the White Wolf Pirates had tricked the CP not once or twice.

They disbanded on the surface.

Who knew what conspiracy was hidden behind it.

However, after receiving no news of the White Wolf Pirates for the past six months, his initial suspicion slowly turned into certainty.

White Wolf Magnus had truly retired!

Once the news was confirmed, the intelligence operatives of the CP Organization rejoiced.

Who could understand this, family?

The White Wolf Pirates would beat up these intelligence operatives whenever they pleased, and they were like barefoot people, unafraid of any threats.

The White Wolf Pirates ran wild all over the world.

For them, who dealt with intelligence, developing an intelligence network took years. Without strong superiors to oversee them, they could only endure the abuse from the White Wolf Pirates.

Every time they finished their mischief, the White Wolf Pirates would pack up and leave, leaving them with a mess.

Working overtime was exhausting!

The reason Rock Stuart came to Elbaf was essentially a final test for the White Wolf Pirates. If he could achieve the goal of this operation, it would mean that the White Wolf Pirates were no longer a threat.

Many previously shelved plans could now be resumed.

Their mission this time was to re-establish cooperation with the 'Holy Mother' Carmel. Thirty years ago, their CP Organization was supposed to act as a bridge between Carmel and the giants.

Who knew that Magnus would come and snatch the credit from the Marines.

Although they said that the CP Organization and the Marines were both affiliated with the World Government, as violent organs under the World Government, there was some competition between them.

But compared to the openly operating Marines, the CP Organization's work was much darker.

Intelligence was just the foundation.

The CP Organization was involved in transactions such as smuggling, arms dealing, and human trafficking.

If they could recruit a large number of homeless orphans with untraceable identities from the orphanage established by Carmel, it would be of great benefit to establishing the CP Organization's intelligence system.

Rock Stuart had always suspected that 'Holy Mother' Carmel was colluding with White Wolf Magnus, because every time they tried to establish a connection with Carmel, their plans would be disrupted by the White Wolf Pirates.

But if Carmel was truly colluding with the White Wolf Pirates, then why would the White Wolf Pirates protect a slave trader who sent orphans to the Marines as soldiers?

For this reason, the Marines who came from the Orphanage of Lambs had their records kept by the CP Organization. If any clues related to the White Wolf Pirates were found, they would not be lenient.

Thirty years had passed.

The White Wolf Pirates had disbanded, and they hadn't found any issues with those orphans.

"What a shame."

Rock Stuart sighed, lamenting that the members of the White Wolf Pirates had their own methods for dealing with their CP pursuit.

For half a year, they hadn't managed to find a single member of the White Wolf Pirates.

"Intelligence indicates that it's currently the Giant race's Winter Solstice Festival. During this period, the Giants of Elbaf will reduce their activities and fast for twelve days."

"This is our chance!"

Don't be fooled by the fact that Rock Stuart only brought three CP0 companions with him; in reality, every CP0 member possessed the strength to fight a thousand.

Rock Stuart planned to abduct all the children from the Orphanage of Lambs to showcase his strength to Carmel, thereby threatening and warning her.

He wanted to tell her that if she wanted the Orphanage of Lambs to continue operating, she had to trade with them.

Although he said they couldn't expose themselves, Rock Stuart actually didn't take those cumbersome Giants seriously at all.

In a one-on-one fight, ordinary Giants were no match for them.

They would only become their targets.

Not to mention, after fasting for twelve days, the Giants would definitely become weak. By then, even if they were discovered by the Giants, they could leave at their leisure.

The plan was foolproof.

In the dead of night, the patrolling Giants couldn't possibly spot the CP0 agents who were less than knee-high, let alone their superior strength.

Unless...

"Unless the crew of the White Wolf Pirates are living in Elbaf."

"But how is that possible?"

Startled by the speculation in his own mind, Rock Stuart shook his head.

They had spent so much effort to get Carmel the trust of the Giants.

How could a bunch of Pirates from the White Wolf Pirates achieve that?

Easily evading the patrolling Giants, they entered the Giants' village.

The Orphanage of Lambs was within reach.

Just as Rock Stuart made a gesture, preparing to kidnap the children from the Orphanage of Lambs.

A confused voice sounded from above them.

"Hmm? Who are you?"

Magnus, who was assisting the Giants with their night watch, sat on a branch of an Adam Tree.

He looked down.

"Oh, it's you guys, the little mice from CP0!"
