Another male CP9 member looked like he'd seen a ghost. He'd never seen such a Devil Fruit ability before, one that could make an agent he'd trained since childhood betray his side in just a few minutes.
Martha's cold tone made him feel as if he had been given a different soul. This unfamiliarity made his companion extremely uncomfortable. He even tried to awaken the woman's consciousness with his words: "What are you talking about? Don't be brainwashed by these people. We are CP9."
The man's commotion annoyed Li Wei. "One tongue is enough. Ultron is yours to use as your experimental subject."
Ultron received the order with a delighted expression. He really wanted to study whether the humans on this planet were different from those in the Marvel universe, in order to plan for developing more weapons in the future.
The robot's iron hand sealed the male prisoner's mouth shut, preventing him from disturbing the young master's ears. Ultron dragged the guy away; this was the last time he would see Martha.
Spandam, a villain who can never be redeemed, had his bones broken by Robin's Flower-Flower Fruit after the Enies Lobby incident. He's incredibly lucky to still be alive after suffering such an injury.
Conversely, T-Bone Penn, who is portrayed as a good guy in the comics, is ironically promoted from colonel to lieutenant general in the later part of the comics, but ultimately dies at the hands of civilians.
Good people don't live long, but evil people live for a thousand years. Spandam will probably live until the end of the comic, and then be forgiven and redeemed by Robin. Li Wei made these wild guesses in his mind.
Since this guy has a father who is a high-ranking official in the World Government, Li Wei will not allow this villain to continue to rise in rank. He will give this guy with a powerful backer some fun in his life. It would be too easy for him to die so easily.
I spent ten million in the system shop to redeem the "Story Cut-in Device" item. Although the name is uncultured, the way to use this item is quite ingenious.
A glowing page of a book stopped in front of Li Wei. He only needed to verbally describe the plot he wanted to insert, and the corresponding text would appear on the page. Once he finished writing, he would immediately tear the page out, and the plot would appear in the mind of the corresponding person.
This prop doesn't seem very expensive, and it's not a world-class prop. However, its drawbacks are quite obvious. This page has a word limit, and the story it creates will only affect a small group of people, generating false memories and emotions in their minds. If the story is particularly incongruous, it won't be believable.
If the character is too powerful, the influence becomes very weak. For example, if Li Wei directly wrote that the Five Elders should be his dogs, something beyond their comprehension, the insertion of this plot would be a failure, and the ten million yuan worth of the scam would be wasted.
Having mentally prepared the plot to be inserted, Li Wei described the scene to the leaves: "[Ada Wong, one of the survivors of White Town, a child adopted by a nun. She escaped by jumping into the river with Allen, ate a Zoan-type Insect-Insect Fruit and lost her memory. She was found and adopted by Spandam, who then trained her to become a CP9 agent.]"
Over the course of more than a decade, Spandam gradually developed feelings for his adopted daughter—a romantic love that transcended the traditional father-daughter relationship. Despite realizing these feelings, he didn't choose to possess her through despicable means. Instead, his mind became increasingly distorted; whenever another man appeared near his adopted daughter, regardless of who he was, he would unleash a frenzied revenge on that man.
[Later, upon learning that Ada was an orphan from the White Town, Spandam chose to conceal this information, keeping the secret buried in his heart forever.]
That humble, subservient love completely turned Spandam into Ada's devoted follower. This dark-hearted foster father's desire to maintain this relationship tormented Spandam's twisted mind. He was terrified of losing his foster father status, and he was willing to give anything for it.
After finishing his narration, Li Wei tore the pages off the book. The torn pages transformed into countless points of light, and the storyline became completely integrated into this world.
On Enies Lobby, Spandam, the unseen light entered the man's mind, and the image of Ada Wong's adopted daughter gradually surfaced in his mind.
Chapter 57 Laying Mines
"Boss, you're a real freak, to think of something like this."
Ada Wong couldn't understand Li Wei's thought process. How much did he hate Spandam? But with this camouflage, it would be easier for him to establish himself among the CP9 agents.
"Have Martha contact Spandam and ask him about any new developments on the Grand Line."
The CP9 agent, controlled by the parasite, took out a Den Den Mushi from her pocket and contacted her superior. After that, the woman was no longer needed; Ada could handle it all by herself. It was time to test this queen's acting skills.
Boom boom boom boom...
Spandam's furious voice came from the other end of the phone bed: "What are you new recruits doing? Why didn't you answer my calls last night? I'm your superior!"
Spandam, eager for a promotion, arranged for a group of new CP9 members to secretly search for clues about Bucky the Joker in the East Blue. He would then use this information to curry favor with the Five Elders, something he had done before.
The Five Elders originally had no interest in the blueprints for Pluto. Even if someone obtained the blueprints, so what? They didn't have the technology or materials to reproduce this ancient weapon, so it posed no threat to the World Government.
But Spandam sent CP9's most elite squad to lie in wait in Water 7 for several years, just to gather information about the blueprints for Hades, wasting manpower and resources on this useless thing.
In the end, he even misused the Buster Call, bombing the Enies Lobby, the face of the world government. From beginning to end, he was a complete egoist.
"I am Ada. The squad you sent out has failed in its mission."
Upon hearing that familiar and pleasant voice, Spandam's tone instantly reversed 180 degrees, and he asked with concern, "How did you end up in the East China Sea? Come back quickly. Ada, did you run into Bucky the Clown? Are you alright?"
"Martha is alive. The other two newcomers are dead. It wasn't Bucky the Joker who killed them; a passing silver robot twisted their necks."
According to Ada's account, Spandam reconstructed the truth in his mind: Bucky the Joker did not appear on Flying Flower Island; it was another false report that needlessly killed two CP9 members.
The silver robot was rather suspicious, claiming to be Ultron. It didn't have Vegapunk's mark on it, so it was uncertain whether it was his creation. However, given the technological capabilities the robot displayed, it was hard to imagine that someone else was behind it all.
"It's good that you're not hurt. I'll report this information. The Navy is handling Vegapunk's case. Since he killed our people, there needs to be an explanation."
Spandam looked down on the Navy, after all, his family's official positions in the World Government could be passed down from generation to generation. The government allocated a lot of military funds to support the Navy, not so that they could bare their teeth at the World Government.
With the recent addition of a female swordswoman, the Navy's actions have become increasingly assertive, severely impacting the dark trade on the Grand Line. The arms and human trafficking trades are affected to varying degrees, and some of their actions have gone too far.
"I'm returning to the Grand Line in a few days. What's been happening on the high seas lately?"
Ida still couldn't bring herself to call a stranger "Dad," since he had become her devoted follower and she could do whatever she wanted with him.
Spandam on the other end of the phone was heartbroken. Ever since Ida distanced herself from him, she rarely called him "father," which made this psychologically twisted man particularly uncomfortable. Being disliked by his goddess was worse than being killed.
You could say Ada tormented him a thousand times, yet he fell in love with Ada for the first time. Recently, the first half of the Grand Line has been quite turbulent, and Spandam wants to remind his adopted daughter, "Don't linger on the high seas. Now, because of the future revealed on the light screen, other sea powers are focusing their attention on Drum Island. This has nothing to do with CP9. Let them fight it out."
According to this CP9 commander, Crocodile and Teach are traveling together towards Drum Island, presumably to target the Straw Hat crew.
Marine Admiral Kizaru volunteered to go to Drum Island to invite Tony Tony Chopper. The Marines were quite interested in this future Zoan-type God and did not want him to fall into the hands of pirates.
Fire Fist Ace of the Whitebeard Pirates has also been spotted by the Navy and is heading to Drum Island, perhaps to hunt down Blackbeard.
With the Navy, pirates, and the Seven Warlords of the Sea all entangled together, who knows what trouble they might cause? Spandam has no interest in any of that. Right now, he only wants the Dark King blueprints and is urging Lucci and the others to act quickly to avoid any unforeseen complications.
A surveillance ship near Wano Country sent a message before it was destroyed by Kaido: he had left Onigashima with his strongest subordinate, King the Wildfire, but their exact destination was unknown.
However, World Government intelligence personnel analyzed that Kaido, one of the Four Emperors, is a Zoan-type Devil Fruit user and might be interested in the Rumble Balls developed by Chopper. If he were to obtain the ability to transform in multiple stages, his strength would increase significantly, which is not what the World Government wants to see.
Sending an admiral to invite Chopper was also to prevent the reindeer from falling into Kaido's hands if they encountered him along the way. In case of emergency, they would have to sacrifice this future animal god to prevent him from becoming an ally of the Four Emperors.
Afterwards, Spandam asked Ada a few more questions, saying how much he missed her and how he had prepared many things for her on Enies Lobby, hoping that his adopted daughter would return as soon as possible and stay by his side.
The other party was spouting cheesy pickup lines, making Ada want to vomit. Since the other party didn't provide any new information, the woman couldn't be bothered with him and hung up the Den Den Mushi in front of Li Wei.
Ada hugged her arms, Spandam's disgusting behavior giving her goosebumps. "Boss, this really isn't a good job. This guy was already a psychopath, and with you doing this, he'll probably be even more of a psychopath."
When Li Wei heard Sister Wang's complaints, he just smiled and didn't say much. He knew Spandam was a sycophant who couldn't get what he wanted, and he would definitely cause trouble within CP9.
The other party already had a tendency to derive pleasure from harming others, and it is estimated that this time they will intensify their actions. The outstanding agents they have cultivated since childhood are not far from becoming alienated from the World Government. Li Wei hopes that the other party will make things even more serious. It is too much of a waste for Lucci to stay in CP9. It would be best to force this genius to leave.
With this source of intelligence, there's no need to spend money to buy items to eavesdrop on other factions.
"Ada, go to Water Seven, meet your future colleagues and build rapport. Let the genius bear the brunt of Spandam's wrath."
The woman understood what the boss meant; he was truly a wicked man.
What will happen between Ada Wong and Lucci? Will Spardam, who loves his daughter so much, go completely insane?
Chapter 58 The Navy Has Arrived with a Big Eater
The Navy has recently lost face. The original plan to arrest the former Pirate King Roger was exposed by the screen, revealing that Roger had a terminal illness and surrendered, which stripped the Navy of its halo.
Shiki the Golden Lion, who was still lurking near the East Blue, laughed heartily upon receiving the news. He was right after all; how could a man as powerful as Roger possibly be defeated by the Navy?
After he resolved his inner conflict, the three colors of Haki surged forth from his body again. Although he still had a ship's wheel stuck in his head and had lost both legs, he had now regained most of his strength.
With swordsmanship on par with great sword masters, the awakened Float-Float Fruit, and the ability to wield all three types of Haki with ease, this powerful being, possessing all three, would be utterly invincible if he were to encounter Luffy again. The latter wouldn't even know how he died.
There's also the issue of Tony Tony Chopper's bounty in the future. Although this hasn't happened yet, the public has already begun to question the Navy's intelligence department, feeling that the bounties set for pirates are far too low.
This is also instigated by pirate hunters. If the Navy raises the bounties of pirates as a whole, these people will take the lion's share of the bounties. As long as the Navy has money, they will help the Navy.
Raising the bounties of pirates collectively would cost the Navy something unimaginable. This money is provided by the World Government, and the Navy has no way to manage it on its own without the approval of the Five Elders.
Without changing the bounties of minor pirates, the Navy has increased the bounties of the Four Emperors' officers. If the bounties of the former are increased, it will be easy for others to profit from them, but the latter are different. Almost no one dares to mess with them. Even if the bounties are increased, no one has the ability to redeem them. This Beli is becoming less and less valuable.
The pirates' revelry and the world's curses left the Navy with no choice but to silently swallow the bitter pill. However, it wasn't without its gains. The addition of the female swordswoman Artoria was no small consolation prize; she stood like a pillar of strength at Marineford, the Navy Headquarters.
The Navy's intelligence department and the World Government's intelligence department jointly investigated Artoria's background, and the results they obtained were indeed the same as what the girl had said.
Artoria was once a princess of the Kingdom of Britain, a small country destroyed by a pirate crew. They couldn't find out who did it, and afterwards, the girl began her wandering life with a sword.
It can be said that he ate and drank his way through the journey, helping other islands fight pirates in exchange for a day's food and water. He never harmed anyone, using his own strength to earn his reward. Even when he was starving, he would not harm civilians. This upright quality moved the high-ranking officers of the Navy.
Some vice admirals privately discussed how fortunate it was that the Kingdom of Britain had been destroyed, otherwise Artoria would never have had any dealings with the Navy. With the power to destroy an island in one fell swoop, she would only become the next king under the constraints of royal power. The previous King of Britain only had one daughter, Artoria, so the throne could only be passed on to her.
"Artoria, wake up! I'm here!"
A beautiful female navy woman with a beauty mark below her lip, long legs exposed, and a black spider tattoo, pushed open Artoria's door to wake her new friend.
Artoria, dressed in her pajamas, had her yellow ahoge (cowlick) drooping on her head, looking just as sleepy as her owner. She opened her bleary eyes and looked at the woman who had gotten up. "It's Gion. It's so kind of you to wake me up every day."
"I'm waiting for you at the dormitory entrance. You'd better come out quickly, don't fall asleep again."
Gion saw Artoria slowly get out of bed, and only after she went into the bathroom and turned on the tap did the woman leave the room, feeling relieved.
The women who joined the navy all lived in the girls' dormitory. Gion and Artoria were neighbors. No one else had ever enjoyed such a beautiful vice admiral waking them up.
The girls' dormitory is a mysterious and alluring place. From time to time, male soldiers sneak in to peek. A general candidate with the code name "Tea Pig" (茶豚), named Kake, loves to come to the girls' dormitory. With his wrinkled and ugly face, he expresses his love to Lieutenant General Gion. He has been rejected hundreds of times but keeps trying.
The Navy officially granted Artoria the rank of Vice Admiral, giving her the honorary position of Admiral candidate, just like Gion and Kake. They would fill any Admiral positions that became vacant, but this wasn't always effective. If someone with greater strength were to be parachuted in and bypass them, Green Bull and Tenko were typical examples.
The two most beautiful female swordsmen in the Navy walked together, attracting the attention of passing Navy personnel. The rate of turning heads was practically 100%. Behind them followed Vice Admiral Chaton, who looked dejected. It was estimated that his confession had been rejected by Vice Admiral Momousagi again. These people who love to watch the drama wouldn't approve of a beautiful woman paired with an ugly man.
The mess hall at the naval headquarters was built very tall because it was to accommodate the giant naval vice admirals. With an average height of over twenty meters, the mess hall would be torn down every time if it wasn't built tall. Giants aren't known for their good temper.
John Jaendor, a giant general who also believed in absolute justice, saw Artoria, who was not even 1.6 meters tall, enter the dining hall. He changed his usual serious expression and took the initiative to invite the girl to sit next to him. "Miss Artoria, our last competition has not ended yet. I have time today, so let's have another competition."
The contest that the giant general was talking about wasn't a real duel with swords and spears, but rather a competition to see who could eat more. Despite her girlish figure, Artoria had actually matched the giant general's appetite in the last contest.
Artoria's reputation as a blonde glutton spread quickly throughout the Navy. Originally, the giants were only in the Navy to repay a debt of gratitude from years ago, although it was all an act.
This girl was well-liked by the giant vice admiral. After all, a woman who could eat with them must be a good person, just like the nun who saved them from the navy.
"I didn't have any late-night snacks yesterday, Lieutenant General Jaendo, you're no match for me."
Artoria sat down next to the giant, and Vice Admiral Jaendor thoughtfully pushed the food in front of the girl. The two of them were about to officially begin a new round of eating contest under the collective witness of the Navy.
Momousagi watched Artoria devour her food from the plate, a gentle smile appearing on her pretty face. "Every time I see her amazing appetite, I'm always surprised."
Looking at the stack of empty plates that gradually piled up beside Artoria, it was clear that not only did she have an astonishing appetite, but her eating speed was also keeping pace with that of a Titan Vice Admiral. This girl's stomach was practically a bottomless pit. Luckily, she was born a princess; otherwise, an ordinary family wouldn't have been able to support her.
