One Piece: The World King Who Emerged from the White Town

I should have tried to stall for more time earlier.

Abel, who was sitting inside drinking, naturally learned about what had just happened through the Den Den Mushi.

Someone had secretly broken into his residence, seemingly looking for something.

But what the other side didn't know was that the entire castle was under Pica's control.

So when someone entered Abel's room, Seka immediately noticed the anomaly, quickly identified the intruder, and notified the others.

I thought I could catch the thief quickly and easily, so I didn't disturb Abel who was talking about 'serious business'.

The result, however, was beyond their expectations.

The thief who infiltrated the castle was surprisingly skilled; despite being captured by Serka and his men, he managed to blast through the thick walls of the castle and escape.

With such a commotion, it was impossible to keep it a secret any longer, so Robin immediately informed Abel upon hearing the news.

Like everyone else, Abel's first suspicion fell on the CP0 members who had just left.

How could it be such a coincidence?

Why did someone sneak in at the exact moment he came out to discuss business?

They knew perfectly well that there was no one inside.

So either it was done by someone from the World Government, or there was a mole within the organization.

Both are possible, and the probability is not low.

Doesn't the World Government worry that he might do something even more irrational if it does this?

Or are these guys from CP0 just worthless trash that they can be easily discarded?

However, Abel then thought that if the intelligence had been leaked, it was indeed possible that it was done by another force.

The specific purpose is still unclear. There is a possibility that they might be deliberately framing the World Government to incite war between the two sides, resulting in a life-or-death struggle.

There's real black, fake black, and even cross-dressing...

This is also why Abel didn't just kill those three guys outside.

He didn't want to be used as a tool by others before he understood the truth of the matter.

So he went outside and, in front of everyone, calmly said to Joseph and the other two, "Just now, someone broke into my residence. I don't believe in coincidences, but I'd like to hear your explanation."

Upon hearing this, everyone around immediately raised their weapons and aimed them at Joseph and his two companions.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense!

It seemed that if Joseph and his two companions' answers failed to satisfy everyone present, then in the next second, all the weapons in everyone's hands would fall on the three of them.

"Our world government has no need to do this. It must be someone who doesn't want us to sit down and talk, so they deliberately made this move."

Joseph calmly analyzed the situation.

That makes some sense and aligns with Abel's earlier assumption.

But this does not mean that the other party is completely innocent.

"It's not too late to admit it now. I won't make things difficult for you since the World Government sent you here."

"But if I catch the person and interrogate him, and it turns out he's one of yours, then there's nothing I can do; you'll all be buried with him."

Abel smoked his cigarette, seemingly unconcerned about the little incident.

But what he said sent a chill down everyone's spine.

This murderous aura... is truly terrifying.

Even Joseph and his two companions, who had received rigorous training, almost turned and ran, but thankfully they managed to hold back.

If you don't admit it, you might still have a way out; if you admit it or just ran away, then you're doomed!

“They are definitely not our people, and we are willing to stay to prove our innocence.”

Abel nodded slightly, then gestured to his subordinate beside him.

He won't believe anything the other party says now, but once he catches them, everything will be clear.

"Then please come in and have another drink, you three."

Upon receiving Abel's signal, his men immediately sheathed their weapons and, with a cold smile, led them back into the tavern.

Along with them went in, a group of subordinates whose faces practically screamed "surveillance."

If Joseph and his companions wanted to escape, it would be almost impossible to do so without alerting the people outside, unless they had a second Silence Fruit.

After seeing that the man had obediently gone inside, Abel immediately said to the person next to him, "Have Violet come over right now."

"Yes, President!"

Violet's Devil Fruit ability allows her to read what her target is thinking, regardless of whether the target is conscious or not.

It can also detect whether the target is lying.

In other words, once the thief is captured and brought here, it will be immediately clear whether he or she was sent by the World Government.

Although Joseph and his two companions inside the tavern were anxious, they dared not make any rash moves.

We can only hope that everything goes well.

Meanwhile, a man wearing a crying face mask was frantically running through the streets.

Seka and his group were chasing after them.

However, this guy is too slippery and unpredictable. Several times, when we thought we had him cornered, he managed to escape using some strange abilities.

I'm so angry!

"Listen up, everyone! Catch that guy! 100 contribution points reward!"

Serka was getting anxious. It was his fault to begin with, and now he had made such a big fuss.

Upon hearing that there would be 100 contribution points, the members of the Dragon Hunter Guild, who had not intended to stand idly by, all lit up!

This is a golden opportunity!

With just 10 contribution points, one can be promoted from an outer member to a trainee crew member, while 100 contribution points are enough for a trainee crew member to become a full crew member.

So a large group of people immediately pounced on it fiercely, like wolves that had spotted meat, completely disregarding everything else.

Even if the person wearing the crying mask could run fast, they would find it difficult to move an inch now!

Chapter 756 Things Suddenly Became More and More Interesting

"Haha, give me your life!"

"Get out of the way, these 100 contribution points are mine!"

"die!"

Amidst the chaotic attack of a group of people, a cold glint flashed in the eyes of the man with the crying face mask, and he immediately kicked out with alternating kicks from his left and right feet.

In an instant, several flying slashes sliced ​​the people in front of them to pieces, leaving limbs and severed bodies scattered all over the ground.

Amidst the screams of these people before their deaths, the figure of the man with the crying mask rushed out again.

The strength he had just displayed caused those around him to hesitate for a moment.

It was this slight hesitation that gave Rob Lucci, who was hiding in the crowd, an opportunity to stand out!

call out……

Bang!

Rob Lucci instantly appeared in front of the man with the crying face mask and stopped him.

The man with the crying mask was startled at first and was about to retaliate when he suddenly noticed the pigeon on the other man's shoulder and remembered the instructions he had given him before accepting the mission.

So he forcibly suppressed the urge to retaliate, letting the other person punch him and send him flying backward.

Rob Lucci immediately gave chase, raining down punches that left the crying-faced masked man utterly helpless.

According to the original plan, they should have stopped at this point, and then Rob Lucci should have captured the man with the crying face mask, using him to earn merit while also showing his face to Abel.

But at this moment, Lucci changed his mind.

Click!

Under the incredulous gaze of the man with the crying face mask, Lucci smashed the guy's throat with a heavy punch and then snapped his neck!

Because only the dead are the safest bet.

He believed that the person sent on this mission was capable of withstanding torture, but in this world, torture is not the only way to learn someone's secrets.

There are so many amazing abilities that can be used to carry out the 'infiltration' to the end and to ensure the mission can proceed perfectly.

You might as well die here!

An unknown special agent.

After killing the opponent, Lucci dragged the guy's corpse out.

In an instant, there was complete silence.

Everyone was stunned by the madness that Lucci had just displayed.

And this thief, who managed to escape from so many officials, was actually beaten to death by this young man?!

If he doesn't fall along the way, his future is absolutely limitless.

The group of Seka and the others who caught up at this moment were also somewhat surprised.

“Well done, kid! What’s your name?” Seka said in his extremely sharp voice, and everyone around him covered their mouths, no one daring to laugh out loud.

Because anyone who laughed out loud is probably buried several meters tall with grass on their grave by now.

“Louch, my name is Rob Louch.”

Lucci immediately revealed his real name, since no one knew the identities of these spies anyway.

Furthermore, this mission was the highest-level mission they had ever undertaken, and it was quite normal for them to remain in hiding for several years.

"Very good, you were ruthless enough. Those 100 contribution points are yours."
