Just as the Red Hair Pirates were heading towards the " Abyss " Trading Company, Lin Yuan was giving instructions to Tesoro.
" Tesoro, I will be personally overseeing headquarters for the next period of time. Your strength has just broken through, so this is a good opportunity for you to improve here."
"We only have six months this time. The operation will begin in six months. Keep an eye on things and see if you can train one or two more strong individuals."
"In addition, I will send people to Elbaf and Loki, and Gaban and the others will also come here. You will report on the situation here every month."
Tesoro listened attentively until Lin Yuan finished speaking, at which point he nodded.
"Don't worry, boss, I'll be careful. I'll leave things with the Chamber of Commerce to you."
Lin Yuan nodded, then left with Robin and the others, leaving only Hancock, Yamato, Kuina, and Uta on the island.
As for the others, their aptitude is not enough to break through to the Admiral level in a short time; they can only rely on the accumulation of time, and right now, what they lack is time.
Lin Yuan's departure did not alert anyone else, or rather, even though others knew Lin Yuan had left, they did not come over.
In the past few days, everyone has been incredibly excited about having a sparring partner like A Tuo, who allows them to go all out without any real danger. Even Redfield has become interested.
At this moment, he was engaged in a one-on-one duel with A Tuo, unleashing endless sword energy, ferocious fists, and bloodthirsty bats, yet he still couldn't completely eliminate his opponent.
It's incredibly rare to find a worthy opponent like this; in the past, they either didn't fight at all, or someone always lost.
This world is cruel; defeat almost always ends in death.
Therefore, anyone who broke through to the Admiral level chose to fight A Tuo one-on-one, once every three days. As for the others, they fought against the Ability User Legion, basically one against two teams of twelve people.
Although they saw Lin Yuan leave, they didn't come to see him off. Instead, they went all out and continued fighting.
After returning to the " Abyss " Merchant Guild, Lin Yuan left Robin and Monet behind, while the others went back to the manor for training.
" Robin, from now on, you will be in charge of the Chamber of Commerce. Don't worry about whether it's profitable or not, just ensure that the Chamber of Commerce can operate normally."
"Understood, leave it to me!"
" Monet, get the Shadow Secret Guard moving. They need to monitor the Red Line with all their might. Report any appearance of Celestial Dragons or ships to us."
"Also, send a message to Garp: tell him that the year is almost up, let him make his own choice, but don't reveal your identity; he knows the gravity of the situation."
"Um!"
Neither of them had any problems. Over the years, Robin had personally taken charge of some of the Chamber of Commerce's affairs, so temporarily taking charge of the Chamber of Commerce was not a problem for her at all.
As for Monet, she had been in charge of the Shadow Secret Guard for many years. She personally handled and reported on many matters, and had dealt with the Revolutionary Army many times.
The three then talked all night long, for a full day and night, before Robin and Monet finally left, standing on their hind legs.
Now, only Lin Yuan remains at the " Abyss " headquarters. He has not continued his decadent lifestyle, but has instead issued a series of orders.
After giving the order to monitor the World Government, Monet stayed by his side, relaying any orders Lin Yuan gave through a special method.
She receives a lot of messages every day, most of which Monet handles directly, but some important matters still need to be reported to Lin Yuan.
That day, after Monet and Lin Yuan had dinner, she received the news. The moment she unfolded the note, her pupils contracted.
" Lin Yuan, we just received news that the Red Hair Pirates have appeared in our territory and are heading towards headquarters. Should we have them intercepted?"
"Oh, Shanks? He's much faster than I expected. No need to stop him. Ever since that puppet came last time, I reckon this place isn't exactly a secret anymore."
Lin Yuan's eyes were filled with indifference. Over the years, apart from destroying the king of the underground forces and Doflamingo, one of the Shichibukai, everything else he did was done in secret.
However, what ultimately made him famous were his numerous battles with the Navy, which ended with Garp's disappearance.
However, he wouldn't hold back when provoked. In the current New World, only the Red Hair Pirates haven't been brought under his control. This time, he'd like to see what's so special about the so-called strongest Conqueror's Haki.
Upon receiving Lin Yuan's order, Monet quickly relayed the message. At this moment, everyone at the " Abyss " headquarters, except for the intelligence department, had already been relocated.
Lin Yuan did not change in any way because of the arrival of the Red Hair Pirates.
At this moment, in the sea area ruled by the " Abyss " Merchant Guild, a pirate ship with a red dragon head was sailing at high speed. Shanks stood coldly at the bow, his eyes full of indifference.
He sensed that every island he passed was being watched by pairs of eyes, but he ignored them.
" Beckman, how much longer until we arrive?"
"Almost there, just one more hour. What do you plan to do this time?"
Shanks remained silent, but a fat man next to Beckman suddenly spoke up; it was Lucky Roux.
"Heh, how about we just finish them off and make you the new world number one?"
Upon hearing this, Shanks frowned but remained silent.
However, Lucky Roux's suggestion excited the rest of the Red Hair Pirates.
As one of the Four Emperors of the New World, and the earliest dual-Emperor pirate crew, they may not have a large territory, but they don't take others seriously.
Whether it was Whitebeard Newgate in the past or Lin Yuan now, in their eyes, although they were famous, it was only because their elite pirate crew did not like to fight for supremacy.
Before even reaching the " Abyss " Chamber of Commerce, they all started shouting. They looked down on the weak, but were unruly towards the strong.
Shanks remained silent, while Beckman frowned, but considering their strength, he felt relieved and picked up his glass to drink.
An hour passed quickly amidst everyone's enjoyment of drinking, and finally, an island appeared before them—the very location of the " Abyss " Merchant Guild.
To Shanks and Beckman's surprise, no one has come to stop them, nor has anyone come to greet them.
"Hmph, no one's even come to greet us, how disrespectful!"
When Gob, a crew member, saw that no one came to greet him, he said angrily.
Just then, a cold voice suddenly rang out.
"Oh, how do you expect me to give you face? With people like you?"
Shanks and Beckman's pupils contracted sharply, and they immediately looked towards the source of the sound.
A streak of Flame Clouds flashed by, and Lin Yuan's figure appeared in mid-air, followed by Erza Emile, and a dozen other women, all coldly watching the Red Hair Pirates.
" Hidden Emperor Lin Yuan!"
