The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel.

Chapter 350 CP0
"Pigeon Man!!"

Luffy's eyes suddenly widened. When he saw the familiar pigeon standing on Lucci's shoulder, he instantly recognized the opponent in front of him who had once put him in a difficult battle. His face was full of vigilance and seriousness.

"It's been two years since we last met, and you're still so annoying, Straw Hat Boy!"

As Lucci spoke, he slowly took off the white mask on his face.

Following his actions, the other agents also took off their masks, revealing their true faces.

It was Rob Lucci, Kaku, Kalifa, and Bruno.

"Are you here to fight?"

When Zoro saw these old rivals, his hand unconsciously rested on the hilt of his sword, and he instantly entered a state of combat readiness. Other members of the Straw Hat Pirates also confronted the CP0 members.

"Although I really want to kill you, I have another mission this time."

As Lucci spoke, he walked into the room with steady steps. His eyes casually scanned the room. When he saw the remnants of Wano Country, his eyes were full of disdain and he snorted coldly, "A bunch of scum."

"What did you say?"

When the warriors of Wano Country heard this, they were immediately furious. As the guardians of Wano Country, they had their own dignity and pride. How could they tolerate being insulted like this? They drew their swords and pointed them at each other. The shining blades flashed coldly under the light, showing their anger and determination.

"You didn't come here just to provoke me, did you?"

Seeing this, Marco hurriedly stepped forward and stood between the two parties. He frowned and stared at Lucci, trying to find out the real purpose of their trip from the other's expression and words. After all, CP0's sudden appearance here must not be that simple.

"Cut~"

Lucci curled his lips in dissatisfaction, a hint of impatience showing on his face, but he still started to explain.

It turns out that since Weiss took control of Wano Country, he has no longer sold seastone to other countries.

You know, seastone is an extremely important strategic resource for the World Government. Whether it is used to deal with Devil Fruit users or in many other aspects, it plays an indispensable role.

The World Government sent envoys to Wano Country several times to negotiate with Weiss, but in the end, the envoys never returned.

The World Government was completely enraged by these successive provocations. It first sent agents from other CP organizations to try to cause some sabotage in Wano Country and force Weiss to compromise.

However, those agents were discovered as soon as they set foot in Wano Country. The natural outcome was that all the agents were wiped out and failed to cause any trouble at all.

It was not until the ace force CP0 was sent out that some useful intelligence was finally collected.

As Lucci spoke, he took off his coat, revealing his muscular upper body. His strong muscles showed his powerful strength.

However, what attracted everyone's attention at this moment was a long scar that ran from his left shoulder across his entire torso. The scar looked shocking.

"This is??"

Someone couldn't help but asked.

Lucci subconsciously reached out and touched the wound, a barely perceptible fear flashing in his eyes. He slowly said, "I sneaked into the castle tower to assassinate Wes Elvin, and was wounded by a sword."

"One sword?" Everyone in the Straw Hat Pirates couldn't help but gasp when they heard this.

They had seen Lucci's strength before. In the past two years, Lucci's strength must have increased a lot. They didn't expect that such a tough opponent could be seriously injured like this by just one sword. How terrifying must the strength of the person who did it be.

"If the devil fruit hadn't awakened, and Bruno hadn't activated the power of the 'Door-Door Fruit' in time to take me away, I would have died."

When Lu Qi recalled the scene at that time, he was still frightened. The feeling of being on the verge of life and death still lingered in his mind.

"There's no chance of winning with this trash."

Lu Qi looked at everyone present. Although what he said was unpleasant to hear, everyone understood in their hearts that this was indeed the current fact.

With their current strength, if they want to fight Wes alone, it would undoubtedly be like hitting a rock with an egg.

"So." Lucci paused, his eyes sweeping across everyone's faces, and finally said in a deep voice: "Join forces."

These two simple words stunned everyone present.

It turned out that this was the reason why Lucci came this time, and it was also an order issued by the Five Elders.

Weiss's existence has now become a thorn in the throat of the Five Elders, making them feel uneasy.

He first defeated two of the Four Emperors, and his power expanded rapidly, and he had already escaped the control of the World Government. Wano Country has a dangerous terrain and is easy to defend but difficult to attack. In addition, the Revolutionary Army has become increasingly active in the past two years. The World Government had to send a large number of troops to suppress the Revolutionary Army. It really does not have much spare energy to deal with Wano Country, so it can only adopt the strategy of elite team surprise attack and decapitation operation.

Although Lucci was extremely reluctant to join forces with the pirates, the orders of the Five Elders were absolute to him and would not tolerate any disobedience, so they came directly to him.

"Team up with the World Government?!!"

Neither the Straw Hat Pirates nor the Whitebeard Pirates had expected this to happen. Their first reaction was to refuse. After all, there had been a long-standing grudge between the two sides, and they were hostile to each other on a daily basis.

But after careful consideration, they had to admit that in terms of their current strength, they were indeed at a disadvantage. If they could join forces with CP0, they might be able to increase their chances of winning, even if it was just a little bit of hope.

So, everyone hesitated for a long time, and finally agreed.

Just like that, the two originally hostile parties actually sat down and started to cooperate. This scene looked really absurd, and people couldn't help but sigh that in this unpredictable world of pirates, anything could happen.

I have to admire CP0's ability to collect intelligence. They actually know the situation in Wano Country very clearly.

"For two years, Wano Country has been firmly under the control of Wes Elvin." Lucci solemnly unfolded a map, spread it flat on the table, and pointed at it, saying, "He has mastered spatial abilities and can travel back and forth between Dressrosa and Wano Country in an instant."

"That is to say, it is not advisable to divide our forces and fight. We must concentrate all our forces to attack this place."

As Lucci spoke, he stretched out his finger and pointed forcefully at a place on the map. He had marked that place prominently with a red pen, which they obviously thought was the key.

"Where? Where?" Luffy's curiosity was suddenly piqued. He leaned his head over and opened his eyes wide to take a closer look.

"You're too close! Asshole!!"

Lucci pushed Luffy's head away with disgust, his face full of displeasure. He really couldn't stand Luffy's noisy and unruly behavior, but there was nothing he could do at the moment. After all, both parties had to cooperate now, so he could only suppress his dissatisfaction.
