The Five Elders Lost Their Cool
This guy is a jinx!
Apart from one of the Five Elders who fainted from anger, the other four Five Elders all turned ashen-faced and, for a moment, were at a loss for words.
Another Celestial Dragons has died!
And the murderer was the same person!
This is utterly disrespectful to the World Government!
Honestly, if someone else had done this, they would probably have been shattered into seventeen or eighteen pieces by now, beyond repair.
But if it's Lin Yan...
To be honest, the Five Elders are really in a bit of a predicament.
After all, Lin Yan's strength was simply unbelievable, and as everyone knows, if you can't beat someone, don't try to reason with them.
That would only lead to self-humiliation.
"... Everyone, what are your opinions?"
One of the Five Elders pondered for a long time before finally letting out a slow sigh and asking the others.
"Of course, we must punish them."
Another of the Five Elders answered without hesitation, but he sighed deeply halfway through his sentence.
"We had to do it, didn't we?"
"..."
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent once again.
That's right, they had reasons to do this. After all, this time it was Celestial Dragons died, and it was impossible to hide it like it was a decade or so ago.
Because this happened in the Gran Tesoro.
The world's largest entertainment city!
With all sorts of people gathered in that city, the Five Elders could even imagine that at this very moment, the news of the Celestial Dragons ' deaths must have spread throughout the world like a virus.
If we don't retaliate with extremely forceful measures.
Then the prestige of the entire World Government and the World Nobles will suffer a huge blow!
This is absolutely unacceptable!
"In that case, gentlemen, let's send out our troops."
Even those who wield the chessboard must sometimes make choices. The Five Elders wore expressions of helplessness, but ultimately had no choice but to take action.
"But we failed last time, so who should we choose this time...?"
"Why not mobilize the entire world's resources? After all, we are the World Government; we have as many people willing to risk their lives as we want, don't we?"
"..."
Upon hearing this, the Five Elders exchanged glances and then nodded in agreement.
I second that.
Meanwhile, on the other side, in the entertainment metropolis of Gran Tesoro.
"Lin, is it really okay for you to be so unnerved?"
Ain's pretty face showed a hint of helplessness. She couldn't help but reach out and poke Lin Yan's cheek, looking at Lin Yan who was lying there like a salted fish.
A mixture of exasperation and amusement involuntarily appeared on her pretty face.
By the way, it's around 8 AM now. (Meow Meow said)
Ain came to wake Lin Yan up.
And by the way, the reason we got this opportunity was because the three girls played rock-paper-scissors to decide who would win.
However...
"What time is it? Everyone knows that humans can't possibly get up before noon. Let me sleep a little longer!"
Faced with Ain's amused and exasperated expression, Lin Yan simply yawned lazily and then casually offered a retort.
With its eyes closed, it seemed it had no intention of opening them.
As mentioned before.
As a perfectly normal human being, following the most basic biological clock, it's perfectly reasonable for me to sleep until noon, right?
"..."
Ain said her mood had relapsed.
Speaking of our captain, he's great in every way, except for one thing that's frustrating: he's incredibly lazy, and we don't know why he's so strong.
And is what you're doing really okay?
Thinking about it, Ain couldn't help but slap Lin Yan in annoyance.
"You're the only one who doesn't feel any tension! You know, Gran Tesoro is in complete chaos right now! And we're probably about to face retaliation, aren't we?"
Ain said this with a hint of helplessness.
It must be said that Gild Tesoro reacted very quickly and his execution was quite good.
First, they immediately blocked all news from the Gran Tesoro to the outside world, and then began to send away all the guests of the Gran Tesoro.
Those who are willing to help can stay; those who are not can go back to where they came from.
Gild Tesoro probably knew this too.
These pirates, who are running rampant in the Gran Tesoro, will be the most unstable factor going forward.
Even the three girls got busy.
After all... compared to the Donquixote Family, which was at its peak, Gild Tesoro, although very wealthy, was far inferior to Donquixote Doflamingo in terms of training violent organizations.
The mighty Gild Tesoro rules over the entire Gran Tesoro.
Having only three reliable fighters under your command is acceptable?
A short guy bouncing around, a big guy with somewhat peculiar interests, and a lucky girl...
To be fair, if it weren't for his own great strength...
The Gran Tesoro has probably been ruined long ago.
"There's no need to be so hasty, is there? We've faced this before, so I'm sure some people in the World Government will learn their lesson this time."
Seeing the worried expression on Ain's pretty face, Lin Yan stopped sleeping and smiled as she offered a word of comfort.
To be honest...
Would the World Government dare to send out its entire force in front of me?
The Five Elders aren't fools either. After the previous Buster Call failed, they were absolutely aware that they possessed large-scale destructive capabilities.
So barring any unforeseen circumstances...
This time, the minor characters barely had a chance to appear.
Considering this point, Lin Yan could roughly imagine what the Five Elders would do next.
"I wish it were really like that~"
Hearing Lin Yan's words of comfort, Ain smiled again on her pretty face, and then, as if she had suddenly thought of something, she spoke to Lin Yan.
"By the way, Gild Tesoro came looking for you early this morning, saying he had something to tell you?"
"Gild Tesoro?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Yan tilted her head.
Immediately, a rather interested smile appeared on his face.
"Alright, where is he now?"
After lazily stretching, Lin Yan finally sat up and asked Ain.
"I'll take you there."
Seeing Lin Yan finally get up, a joyful smile appeared on Ain's pretty face, and then she spoke without hesitation.
Lin Yan naturally had no objection to this.
What happened next is nothing special. Led by Ain, the two quickly arrived at Gild Tesoro's location, where the emperor of the Gran Tesoro was checking his inventory.
Seeing Ain bring Lin Yan in, Gild Tesoro immediately put down his work and smiled at the two of them.
"How did you two get some rest yesterday?"
