Grand Line—Water 7.
From high in the sky, Huanglong and his group looked down at this city of water, like a pyramid-shaped fountain.
There were seven canal entrances around the island, each leading to a different service district.
The upward waterways of each canal could carry visitors' ships through intricate water-powered freight elevators to tier upon tier of districts.
"Targets! The owner of a bar on Water 7's Central Street, CP9 Agent Blueno;
the boss of Franky's Disassembly House, Iron Man Franky;
CP9 Agent, Cat-Cat Fruit User, the CP genius said to appear only once in eight hundred years, Rob Lucci, CP9 Agent Kaku...
Water 7's currency exchange, Water Seven Bank..."
Dongye Huanglong assigned the tasks. He would personally find Franky and Blueno, while Kuma and Enel would capture Lucci, that Zoan Devil Fruit User agent.
That guy was highly talented. His Lineage Factor could serve as a clone template for a Seraphim.
As for Law, Bege, and Lafitte, they would rob the bank and the currency exchange.
As a famous shipbuilding island on the Grand Line, Water 7 saw countless pirate crews come here to build new ships.
And where did those pirates get their money?
Wasn't it by exchanging the gold and treasures they had plundered for cash Berries at the underground currency exchanges and underground banks here?
Even the legitimate currency exchanges and banks under the World Government would gladly take in those pirates' dirty money and stolen gold.
The Straw Hat Pirates had exchanged the gold they got from Skypiea for Berries in Water 7, bought Adam Wood, and built the Thousand Sunny.
The currency exchanges here were also notoriously ruthless. They preyed on rookie pirates who urgently needed money and knew nothing about the goods, forcing the purchase price of gold as low as possible.
