As soon as the black Den Den Mushi was pressed, almost immediately the entire " Abyss " Merchant Guild and its affiliated forces sprang into action.
Without hesitation, they abandoned all their work and headed to the headquarters of the " Abyss " Chamber of Commerce.
Robin and Stella immediately activated all their ships to contact those forces that were further away. Long ago, Lin Yuan had placed " Ark Maxim " Arks in various forces, and there were dedicated personnel in charge of them.
Moreover, within the territory ruled by the " Abyss " Merchant Guild, countless warriors mobilized to wipe out all pirates in the surrounding seas.
It must be said that, because of the Straw Hat Pirates, countless pirates have once again flooded into the New World, and the battle between the " Abyss " Trading Company and the pirates has not attracted the attention of the World Government and the Navy.
After all, this kind of situation is quite common in the New World, and there are also quite a few ignorant pirates who take the initiative to attack the " Abyss " Merchant Guild, which makes their plan seem even more normal.
As for Lin Yuan, after greeting everyone, he immediately activated his fruit ability, and countless Flame Clouds enveloped the entire island, then slowly lifted it up.
Seeing this, Kaido couldn't help but twitch his lips. Every time he faced Lin Yuan, he, Devil Fruit User of the Mythical Zoan, Fish-Fish Fruit, Model: Azure Dragon, felt like he was seeing a top-tier version of his ancestor.
Lin Yuan's Devil Fruit ability not only completely suppressed him, but Lin Yuan also possessed every Devil Fruit ability he knew. Furthermore, Lin Yuan had an endless stream of super moves that made even Kaido envious.
He still remembers the move Lin Yuan used to defeat him; simply by closing his eyes, Lin Yuan completely trapped him in a despairing, silent space.
The entire secret base took five days to fly back to the headquarters of the " Abyss " Chamber of Commerce.
When they saw the massive black city walls and the towering buildings inside, all the soldiers' eyes welled up with tears.
"Is this our home?"
Robin and the others, who had been waiting here since they learned of Lin Yuan's return, watched as the huge island slowly sank into the sea without causing the slightest ripple, leaving all the powerful figures present in awe of Lin Yuan's control.
Not only were Robin and other beautiful women there to greet them, but also some unfamiliar figures—these were some of the few family members of the secret base warriors.
Among these people, Lin Yuan also saw Shirahoshi and Naguri, who had returned to the " Abyss " Merchant Guild ahead of time. As for Neptune and Queen Otohime, they would have to make arrangements before coming over.
Tesoro arranged accommodations for all the warriors directly, having reserved places for them long ago; they just needed to go directly there.
"Alright, let the brothers go back and rest first. The rest of you come with me to headquarters to rest. I estimate the others will arrive one after another in the next few days."
Redfield and the others had no problem, as their homes were all located at headquarters.
Just as Lin Yuan had said, people from other forces arrived that afternoon. The first to arrive was Loki from the New Giant Kingdom, who was now the Elbaf, followed by three powerful figures: Luo Ri, Luo Yue, and Luo Xing.
However, despite their usual self-proclaimed strength, they kept a low profile when they came to the " Abyss " Merchant Guild. Although they were tall, they were very gentle and had lost all traces of their former brutality.
Loki knew the power of the " Abyss " Merchant Guild, especially Redfield and his group, who were forces they couldn't contend with. However, upon arriving, he was still taken aback.
At a glance, there were more than a dozen powerful generals at the Emperor level, many of whom they did not recognize. Luo Ri, Luo Yue, and Luo Xing were also shocked and speechless, completely dumbfounded.
Loki's heart was also in turmoil. Just now, he had sensed the auras of no less than a dozen powerful individuals, and they were all unfamiliar to him.
The fact that Big Mom Whitebeard Newgate and Lot Linlin weren't here meant that I must have arrived early.
Furthermore, he didn't see Gaban or Ripley either. If they were included, how many Admiral or higher-level experts would the entire " Abyss " Merchant Guild have?
Loki was momentarily dazed, his heart pounding with excitement.
"Hiss..."
The second group to arrive included King Neptune and Queen Otohime, as well as high-ranking members of the Fish-Man forces such as Pain. It is worth mentioning that after more than ten years of arduous training, Pain has also risen to the level of Admiral.
King Neptune and Queen Otohime were stunned when they saw Loki and the Giant Race, and then heard Pain say that the other side was even stronger than him.
Although they knew the " Abyss " Merchant Guild was powerful, they didn't expect Lin Yuan to have Giant Race.
However, being from the same " Abyss " faction, the two sides still greeted each other politely, and after meeting Tesoro, they took the initiative to start a conversation.
When they voluntarily exchanged some of the information they knew, they were even more shocked.
However, just as they were suppressing their excitement, Gaban arrived at the Chamber of Commerce headquarters aboard the " Ark Maxim " Ark.
Accompanying him were his wife Ripley, son Colon, Gaban, Bonde, and one who stayed behind in Elbaf.
"Is this Lin Yuan's headquarters? It's really impressive, and there's even a terrifying training base next door."
Gaban said with a smile, while Ripley was also secretly observing everything about the " Abyss " Merchant Guild. Although she had agreed to the alliance, this was her first time here.
However, Lin Yuan and his group of powerful figures had given her such a great shock that she couldn't help but take a few more glances.
However, their expressions quickly froze, because the entire island was filled with the auras of countless powerful individuals, including no fewer than twenty at the Emperor level.
Gaban appeared calm, but he was inwardly surprised. As for Queen Ripley and the others, their eyes were filled with horror.
"Pulse..."
Colon was leaving the Giant Kingdom for the first time, couldn't help but swallow hard; he was truly terrified.
They quickly spotted Loki and his companions. Being Giant Race themselves, their expressions were somewhat awkward upon seeing each other again.
Fortunately, with Gaban acting as an intermediary, after a brief exchange, he became acquainted with King Neptune and Queen Otohime.
Tesoro, accompanied by Law and some assistants, personally greeted them upon their arrival.
"Haha, it's been a long time since I've been here. I wonder what Lin Yuan has up his sleeve this time that made us gather here."
"Mamamama, isn't this great? It'll be perfect for us to see just how strong Lin Yuan really is, and we can also help see if we can stand up to the World Government."
The newcomers were none other than Whitebeard Newgate and Lot Linlin, and not only them, but also Katakuri and several powerful siblings.
The Whitebeard Pirates, on the other hand, were led by Ace along with several of their top-ranking captains.
However, Whitebeard Newgate and Lot Linlin quickly fell silent.
They knew about the Giant Kingdom, as well as about Kaido, Redfield, Shiki, Bullet, and others.
But when they sensed the sudden appearance of over a thousand powerful individuals at the captain level on the entire island, they were completely dumbfounded.
"That guy is a monster!"
The same thought popped into their minds at the same time.
