He knew far too much about this world. There was no need to pry more information out of these people. If something unexpected happened, it simply would not be worth it.
At this point, Omoro and the other two had already been fitted with suppression collars. They could no longer use any of the strength they should have possessed, so they could only sit there obediently.
Nova glanced at them, then stomped his right foot hard against the ground. The barrier space reappeared.
"Your Majesty..."
Junhe was somewhat bewildered. Before he could figure out what was happening, Nova slowly walked toward Omoro.
"Ho ho ho... It seems King of Tru has changed his mind?"
Omoro said with a smile.
"You're right. I did change my mind, because I suddenly realized that I already know most of what you know. There's simply no need to learn anything more from your mouths.
Still, I can talk to you about these matters. Consider it a bit of compensation before you die."
Nova said calmly as he crouched down.
Junhe knowingly walked to the edge of the barrier and began watching the surroundings. Even though there was no danger here at all, no one could guarantee there would not be an unexpected accident.
"Tell me, then. What do you know?"
Omoro had lost his initial arrogance. He was already waiting to die, so rather than struggle, he might as well listen to what the other man had to say.
"Omoro, in some respects, I have to admire your CP Department. The CP Department takes orders directly from the World Government—or rather, it would be more accurate to say that you only take orders from those five old men.
Tell me, aside from having you search for spatial-type Devil Fruits and the Op-Op Fruit, the Five Elders must have tasked you with finding other Devil Fruits as well, right?"
Nova asked with a smile. He had already noticed the surprise on Omoro's face.
Omoro said nothing, but his expression already explained everything.
He had no idea where the other man had learned this information, but Nova was not wrong.
"King of Tru, you truly are surprising. A small country tucked away in South Blue actually knows about affairs in the New World?"
Omoro said with a somewhat astonished smile.
"The New World? I haven't heard that term in a long time. I wonder what the current situation has become?
But I believe the strongest force on the seas is still the Whitebeard Pirates. The surviving members of the Rocks Pirates must have grown incredibly powerful as well.
All of this must be giving the World Government quite a headache. No one knows how the situation in this Pirate World will develop in the future. If you can stay alive, perhaps you'll get to witness how this world changes."
"So I really won't be leaving here alive, will I?"
After hearing Nova's words, the surprise on Omoro's face faded considerably. He no longer cared how Nova knew so much about the New World.
But he had gained one important piece of information from Nova's words: he truly might not be able to leave this place.
Unlike the others, however, Omoro faced and accepted this calmly, without the slightest trace of nervousness or unease.
"Junhe, send these lords of the CP Department on their way. Make it quick!"
Nova called directly to Junhe, who stood at the edge of the barrier.
His gaze remained fixed on Omoro's expression, wanting to see what the man was truly planning.
Upon receiving the order, Junhe showed no mercy. Those two had already been severely injured; now, merely lifting a finger was enough to finish them.
Of the six people from the CP Department, only Omoro remained. The two looked at each other, with no hatred in either of their eyes.
"Come on. This trip truly surprised me. I never expected the supposedly weak South Blue to have people as powerful as you. But if the World Government learns of your existence, I can already guess what will happen then."
Omoro said with a smile.
As he smiled, Nova smiled as well. His tone remained calm as he said, "You're right. If the World Government learns about our strength, even I can't imagine what might happen.
But, Omoro! In two years at most, even if the World Government finds out, what can they do? The situation on the seas will definitely be settled within two years. Forget the World Government—among your Cipher Pol's nine departments, who could possibly come here and stop us?"
Omoro froze for a moment. The other man actually knew how many departments Cipher Pol had. But after thinking about it, he accepted it. Since Nova even knew about the Five Elders, what was so surprising about knowing how many Cipher Pol departments there were?
"Why are you so certain that the situation on the seas will undergo such drastic changes within two years?"
Omoro asked in a low voice, his face expressionless.
"The New World is only so big, and the pirates are all restless. Every one of them wants to become the next Pirate King. They all want to know what One Piece really is.
In that case, the location of the island Laugh Tale will surely become a place that those major forces fight over.
None of the great pirates currently has the confidence to find it directly, and no one can decipher the Poneglyphs now.
The most correct thing the World Government ever did was probably killing everyone in Ohara. Otherwise, what comes next would be even further beyond your imagination.
Among the pirates in the New World, the Whitebeard Pirates have already secured a place for themselves. No matter what pirate crew it is, I'm afraid none can surpass them now.
The other pirate crews probably won't amount to much. On the road to fighting for supremacy, just as I said earlier, the remaining members of the Rocks Pirates will definitely claim one spot. As for the final spot, no one knows who will take it.
The only thing that is clear is that Marine Headquarters has neither the time nor the energy to deal with what is happening in the Four Seas. Otherwise, there would not be so many things giving them headaches."
"Then I truly thank you for telling me."
This time, Omoro was sincerely grateful. He understood everything Nova had said, but only after connecting it all together did he realize how terrifying this young man before him truly was.
