Zhu Tian started by deceiving his father-in-law from the perspective of pirates.

Once Observation Haki is mastered to its peak, one can hear the voices of all things, even the voices of planets.

"Let's not worry about that for now. I've given you the scales. Is there anything else you need?" Kaido asked.

"That's all for now! I'll take these materials to the master blacksmiths for a look. I plan to forge three suits of armor: one for myself, one for Yamato, and one for Sylvanas, the Banshee Queen. We'll see if there are any left over," Rhodes said.

"Whatever you want! If the quality is good, I'll give one to every one of the Beasts Pirates' top brass!" Kaido said.

After saying that, Kaido stood up, took the transformation potion handed to him by Rhodes, and transformed into a two-meter-tall figure before heading to Undercity to rest.

After all, given Kaido's original size, there wasn't much room for him to live in Undercity. If he wanted to stay, he would have to take a transformation potion.

“I’m really looking forward to it. Come and take a look at the texture of these scales.” Sylvanas ordered her men, a group of Forsaken dwarves and blood elf mages, to begin examining the scales.

A group of forgotten figures stepped forward with hammers and pounded the dragon scale materials, then began various experiments, before beaming with delight.

"It's an excellent material, extremely hard, far surpassing some ordinary dragon scales. It can be used to forge both weapons and armor."

"It can be used to write magical runes, as well as to enchant and engrave, making it a superior material."

“If we could take these top-quality dragon scales to Ironforge, we could get better forging. It’s such a pity,” said a Forsaken dwarf.

The blacksmith shops in Undercity are barely usable, far inferior to those in Ironforge. Moreover, after becoming Forsaken, their heat resistance has decreased significantly, resulting in many limitations when forging weapons.

It's a pity they can never go back; now they are the forgotten ones.

"Can you make a few pieces of protective gear?" Sylvanas asked.

"A dozen or so dragon scales can make four pieces of armor," the dwarf blacksmith said after counting the materials.

“Then forge two suits for women and one for men. One should be about the same size as me, and the other should be about the size of that little white-haired girl over there. For the men’s suit, just refer to Rhodes. And for the armor, what style would you like to design?” Sylvanas asked Rhodes.

“Make it the same style as mine, and I’ll keep one as a spare,” Rod said, stroking his chin.

Since there's an extra one, I'll keep it as a spare!

“I understand! You heard that. The other one will still be made according to Rhodes’ design. After you finish forging it, hand it over to these blood elf mages so they can enchant it, add runes, and set in gems,” Sylvanas said.

The dwarf blacksmiths nodded and immediately prepared to carry the dragon scales back to start their furnace work.

"Please wait a moment, General Ranger." Just then, a blood elf mage suddenly spoke up.

“Call me Your Majesty. I am now the Banshee Queen, not some wandering general. What do you need?” Sylvanas asked, frowning.

"If possible, could you grant us a piece of armor? We will use the finest materials to enchant and engrave these armors, and the gems inlaid will be treasures from Quel'Thalas," the blood elf mage said.

The materials this time are truly perfect. If handled properly, they can be used to create legendary armor. If I were to bring one back for the Regent, he would be overjoyed.

So he had some ideas and wanted to get a piece of armor.

“Oh! It’s a pity this isn’t mine. Rhodes, you heard that too. What are you planning to do?” Sylvanas looked at Rhodes, smiled slightly, and asked.

“Giving you one is not out of the question, but if I find the best materials in the future, I will need the help of your blood elf race,” Rhodes said, stroking his chin.

Making friends with the blood elves has its advantages; you can join them in the future to help conquer Kael'thas and then get the blood elves to do you a favor.

The elven race possesses remarkable magical craftsmanship, and has even produced high-tech magical gadgets such as arcane golems.

It will be of great help to me in the future. Anyway, I will have as many dragon scales as I want in the future, and I can even take some dragon scales off whenever I become stronger.

This thing is just like skin flakes; it's worthless to Kaido and Rod.

“That’s no problem. I can grant your request personally. I am one of the top enchanting and glyphing masters in the entire Silvermoon City of Quel’Thalas,” the male blood elf mage said with a smile.

This was no challenge for him.

“Then, Master Chengjiao, may I ask your surname?” Rod asked.

“Lucis Starlight, you can just call me Lucis,” Lucis said.

"Then I'll leave the rest of the time to you. Enchant, engrave, and jewel-set these armors. Once you've finished, the other armor will be your reward," Rhodes said.

“It would be my pleasure to serve you, sir!” Lucius said.

It was an honor for him to enchant and engrave superior magical armor, as it allowed him to improve his skills.

Rhodes nodded and returned to Undercity with Sylvanas. The rest of the time was spent waiting.

Kaido and his daughter had already gone off to their daily sparring, while Rune stayed behind to watch over Rod.

"Rhodes! Didn't you say before that Xiao Run came here on a special mission? Why is Xiao Run still following you now? There's nothing wrong with that." Runti said.

I clearly stated that I came here with a special mission, but all I ended up doing was wandering around with the young lady, and I have to be on guard against you, you bastard, every night.

However, there were also benefits. Xiao Run also learned that kind of energy called anger, which increased his strength a lot. After returning, he handed it over to Xiao Peijiwan.

“How could I forget you? Your time to shine will come when you arrive in Undercity. I will arrange an identity for you. You will go to a place called Scarlet Cathedral, join the Scarlet Crusade there, and become a paladin. That will be your mission,” Rhodes said.

Of the Flying Six, Rhodes did not intend to have them all undergo fel energy transformation. Instead, he planned to have them learn other powers. As for Runti, Rhodes intended to send him to the Scarlet Crusade.

"The Scarlet Crusade! You want her to learn how to use the Holy Light?" Sylvanas glanced at Runti and asked with a surprised expression.

“That’s right, I want her to learn about Holy Light energy and see if she can accept it. Runti’s physical condition is very strong, so she should be able to be accepted by these Scarlet Crusades,” Rhodes said.

Actually, it was a last resort for Pairun to go undercover beforehand. Among the Flying Six, only Pijivan and the siblings Runti were considered monsters in the world of Azeroth.

The Red Flag Drake who will join in the future is about the same size, but that guy is a big undercover agent. As for the others...

The eight-meter-tall beauty, Black Maria, is out of the question. The other members' figures would be monstrous even in the world of Azeroth, so they probably wouldn't be popular with the Scarlet Crusade.

As for why Page One wasn't chosen, it's because Runte is stronger, and its Pachycephalosaurus form can also be used as a hidden weapon.

Given Runti's current combat strength, they wouldn't refuse if he volunteered to join the Scarlet Crusade.

"Rhodes, what kind of Holy Light Energy do you want Run to learn?" Run asked.

“That’s right. You should learn how to use Holy Light energy, and it would be best if you could become a paladin. If you could achieve a higher position in the Scarlet Crusade, that would be even more perfect,” Rhodes said.

With Runti's strength, if he could control the power of the Holy Light, he would undoubtedly be the most powerful one in the Scarlet Crusade. Anyway, who controls him? It's not like he's being controlled. You can all be controlled by him!

Runte is no fool; on the contrary, she is very clever. Otherwise, she wouldn't have dared to steal Kaido's Devil Fruit at such a young age.

There are no weaklings who can grow up in an environment like the Beasts Pirates.

"Being an undercover agent takes a lot of time, doesn't it? Why don't you go yourself, you bastard? Damn it!" Runti said with great dissatisfaction.

“Listen to me, if you’re willing to go, next time I come, I’ll bring your brother Page One. After you achieve a high position there, I’ll send Page One over so you can train him properly. This is also Kaido’s intention,” Rhodes said.

This move immediately struck Runti's weak point, and he surrendered instantly.

"Then it's a deal. You absolutely mustn't lie to Xiaorun, or Xiaorun will definitely teach you a lesson," Runti said, clenching his fist.

Well, it's better to stay away from this guy, otherwise I'll be worried about him attacking me every night.

"Don't worry! I wouldn't lie to you, Sylvanas. Could you help me gather some materials about the Scarlet Crusade, as well as their exact location? I plan to have Runti go there," Rhodes said.

"Speaking of the Scarlet Crusade, they are old rivals of us Forsaken. High Inquisitor Whitemane died at our hands. But are you sure you want to send her to the Scarlet Crusade?"

"If you want to become a paladin, I actually have a better recommendation. The Scarlet Crusade are a bunch of fanatics, those guys are really nasty. Your friend looks rather strange, they won't accept him," Sylvanas said.

The Scarlet Crusade excludes all races except humans. This girl has two horns on her head and can transform into a dinosaur.

Sylvanas was certain that she would not be accepted by the Scarlet Crusade.

“Oh! Who is the other candidate you mentioned?” Rod asked.

"This person is Tirion Fordring. He has recently returned to the fold and taken over Hearthglen. He is also recruiting ambitious individuals to train as paladins in preparation for a future counterattack against the Lich King."

He even accepted orcs.

"Tirion Fordring's strength is comparable to that of the former Highlord Mograine and Uther the Lightbringer, both of whom were among the first generation of human paladins," Sylvanas said.

Rhodes was also surprised to hear this, as he had forgotten about this person.

Damn! Old Buddha, this Old Deng is a big name in the player community!

The raid leader of Icecrown Citadel spent the entire time slacking off in the ice, resulting in a wipe when the raid finally came out to kill the enemy, and he even ripped off the player "Invincible Old Deng".

His skills are undeniable, top-notch, and he's very willing to recruit all sorts of apprentices.

He'll take you in even if you're an orc, as long as you're willing to fight against the Scourge.

If it weren't for the fact that the Empress Dowager hadn't yet emerged from seclusion, Rod would have planned to become her apprentice.

Taking the Buddha as a disciple would indeed allow me to learn a more powerful path of the Holy Light, but I intend to subdue the Scarlet Crusade.

"The Scarlet Crusade is a bunch of fanatics, and they're not as easy to subdue as you think, even if you become one of their leaders. These guys are all a bit dim-witted."

Moreover, they are currently under General Abidis's command, and their fighting strength is not much! Give up this idea as soon as possible! Queen Sylvanas said.

My forgotten ones are better than these losers. Why did I have to choose them? I just laugh.

They're my mortal enemies! And you, a fiend, want to be their leader? Are you kidding me?

Therefore, Sylvanas is determined to stop this from happening.

Chapter 64 Yamato and Queen Rod team up to fight Kaido

“Alright, let’s go with Tirion Fordring then! Run, get ready to go to Tirion Fordring’s place, become his apprentice, learn Holy Light, and then find an opportunity to show him your Devil Fruit transformation ability, just say it’s your innate talent,” Rhodes said.

The Scarlet Crusade, fine, we don't need them anymore.

Sending Runti and his sister over would pave the way for their future expedition to Northrend, at least allowing them to infiltrate the high command of the Argent Crusade.

However, there's no need to hide your Devil Fruit ability from the invincible Old Deng; showing it directly will gain his trust.

Furthermore, Tirion Fordring doesn't discriminate against warlocks; one of his gnome warlock subordinates even summoned a demon that killed him!

"I understand, so I won't go to the Scarlet Crusade! Don't worry, Xiao Run knows, Xiao Run isn't stupid."

"Remember to bring Little Peggy over, okay? We promised." Runti nodded and said.

“Okay, it’s a deal,” Rhodes nodded and said.

Next, Sylvanas had a Forsaken draw a map for Runti, and after taking some provisions, Runti set off that very day.

I wonder what kind of sparks this girl will create with the holy light energy, or whether she'll simply fail and come back empty-handed.

Rhodes was slightly expectant.

"In fact, the Blood Elf race now has a new theory, which is the energy of Holy Light."

"It can actually be controlled, just like arcane magic. Controlled by force, not by faith," Sylvanas said.
