Whitebeard Newgate and the others looked at Lin Yuan with surprise upon hearing his words.
They all knew that Lin Yuan possessed the Pluton Battleship, Zephyr even knew that Lin Yuan owned two, one of which was developed by Lin Yuan himself, but they had never seen it.
As for the Poseidon, none of them had ever seen him; they only felt that Lin Yuan had far too many trump cards up his sleeve.
Zephyr also thought of Lin Yuan's thirty-eight Ark Maxim Flying Warships, and felt his blood boil.
As for Mohammed and the other elders, as well as Gaban and his group, they felt their faces stiffen and broke out in a cold sweat.
As the world's number one kingdom, they naturally knew about the Three Ancient Weapons; their attacks, capable of shattering an entire island in a single blow, were truly terrifying.
If a strong person possessed such power, they wouldn't be afraid. What they feared was the uncertainty of these weapons; no one knew where they were or when they would attack.
Mohammed and the others exchanged glances and became serious.
Although they didn't know if what Lin Yuan said was true, they were unwilling to gamble.
However, as the first Affiliated Nation of the World Government, Mohammed and his group hesitated, unsure of what to choose.
Just then, Ripley suddenly spoke up.
"Lord Lin Yuan, we naturally believe you possess these two Ancient Weapon, but the World Government also possesses Uranus, which we've heard Uranus even more powerful than the other two. Furthermore, there's Imu. Are you confident you can overthrow the World Government?"
Lin Yuan looked at Ripley in surprise, not expecting her to be so perceptive.
"Hehe, Mrs. Ripley is right. The World Government is indeed very powerful. No one is sure if we can defeat them."
At this point, Lin Yuan looked at Whitebeard Newgate, Redfield, Shiki, and the others one by one, and then smiled.
"Lady Ripley, I am the head of the Abyss Chamber of Commerce. You should know the names of these people, but do you know why they have come this time?"
They had speculated about the arrival of the Three Great Five Emperors, the legendary pirates, and the former Marine Admiral, and they knew these powerful figures who were famous throughout the seas very well.
Gaban looked at Bullet, knowing he was an unrestrained person, and said jokingly.
" Bullet, don't tell me, you and Whitebeard Newgate are all under Lin Yuan's command!"
A smile appeared on Bullet's face, his rugged features making him look somewhat terrifying, which further solidified Gaban's belief.
"Yes, that's right, you're right!"
"Haha, I knew it! You almost scared me! How could you possibly join..."
Gaban's laughter suddenly stopped. His face stiffened as he stared at Bullet, his voice rising abruptly, filled with disbelief.
"What did you say? You joined the Abyss Chamber of Commerce and are now working for Lin Yuan?"
Before Bullet could recover, Gaban looked at Whitebeard Newgate, Redfield, Shiki, and the others.
And you?
"Hahaha, just as you can see, we're also under Lin Yuan's command. This old man is now retiring."
The entire audience was astonished by Whitebeard Newgate's reply, and only then did Mohammed and the others realize why these powerful figures had come together.
"You have no doubt, Lin Yuan is very strong. Gaban, if he goes all out, even Roger wouldn't last ten minutes against Lin Yuan!"
"Clang!"
Gaban suddenly jerked, dropping his wine glass to the ground. He knew Roger's strength; neither he nor Rayleigh could match him.
However, he did not doubt the truth of these words, because the person who said them was Redfield, a strongman who could once rival the entire Roger Pirates.
Lin Yuan maintained his smile.
"Hehe, everyone, they joined not because of their abilities, but for other reasons. I won't force any of you to come this time either."
"However, I foresee that in the not-too-distant future, some powerful individuals will come here, and then you will be able to make your choice."
"However, even if you join us at that time, you won't be eligible for certain special things. Of course, you can also join the World Government!"
Lin Yuan's smile deepened, and he seemed completely unconcerned.
But everyone present was a shrewd old fox, and they could easily understand Lin Yuan's meaning.
A war between the " Abyss " Merchant Guild and the World Government is inevitable, and regardless of the outcome, Elbaf has no chance of remaining neutral.
If that happens, no matter who wins, they will not be tolerated, and may even wipe out the entire Elbaf before the war even begins.
In the past, Mohammed and the others would have thought it impossible, but seeing the lineup behind Lin Yuan, they were all somewhat horrified.
Gaban suddenly noticed Bullet staring intently at him, and a thought struck him.
Mohammed looked at Lin Yuan, not angry at his words, and asked with a smile.
"Lord Lin Yuan, if we join, what will Elbaf gain? Can we guarantee that even after victory, Harald's ideals can still be upheld?"
Bullet looked at Mohammed with a mocking expression.
"Hmph, your strength is nothing special. Our resources are beyond your imagination."
Lin Yuan glanced at Bullet but said nothing.
"Hehe, of course! Just as Bullet said, Elbaf will prosper!"
Mohammed nodded, then exchanged glances with the others before speaking.
"Lord Lin Yuan, this matter is far too important; we need to discuss it first, as it concerns the future of Elbaf."
Lin Yuan nodded, stood up, and said.
"Of course, then I'll await your good news."
After saying that, Lin Yuan took the lead and walked outside, followed by Whitebeard Newgate and the others.
As Gaban watched Bullet leave, he subtly flicked his wrist, a glint of cunning flashing in his eyes.
"Ahem, Elder Mohammed, you two discuss this matter. I'll go accompany them!"
Mohammed nodded. Although he respected Gaban, such an important matter was not something Gaban could participate in.
Gaban told Ripley what was happening and then quickly chased after Lin Yuan and the others, leaving the group of Giant Race to discuss the matter.
Lin Yuan and the others slowly walked out of the palace, preparing to wander around, when they suddenly realized that no one was there to guide them, and Lot Linlin, who was familiar with the terrain, was not there either.
"Lord Lin Yuan, wait for me!"
Just then, Gaban's voice came, and then he came running over quickly.
"Oh, Mr. Gaban, you've come at the right time. I was just about to look around. Could you please show me around?"
"Haha, you're too kind. Come with me, I'll show you around."
Upon seeing Gaban's arrival, Whitebeard Newgate, Bullet, and the others wore expressions of joy.
"You bastard Gaban, you'd better bring all the good wine this time, we'll drink our fill."
Hearing Whitebeard Newgate, start wasting his good wine right away, Gaban couldn't help but roll his eyes.
"Hmph, I'm not like you, I'm very poor."
After saying that, Gaban looked at Lin Yuan and said solemnly.
"Lord Lin Yuan, I wonder if I could join you? I'd like to participate in the battle!"
