One Piece: Starting with Breathing Techniques

Although the map provided by Beg is somewhat rough, it still gives a general idea of ​​the situation in Mary Geoise.

The vast majority of the area is designated as the territory inhabited by the Celestial Dragons.

The "rat quarter" that Begg mentioned only occupies about one-tenth of the entire Mary Geoise.

This area is mainly located on the outskirts of Mary Geoise and is officially called the "Service Area".

This area is the gear that keeps the entire system running.

A large number of government officials, soldiers, and CP agents work and live here.

The other areas are basically where most of the Celestial Dragons live, which is the area that Kiro and Beg just passed through.

They occupy the largest and most prestigious area of ​​Mary Geoise, and the houses with spires are representative of the Celestial Dragons' residences.

There will also be some entertainment venues such as auction houses and gladiatorial arenas for the Celestial Dragons to enjoy.

It is important to note that in Mary Geoise, auction houses not only auction precious jewels and fruits, but also slaves collected from all over the world.

The auction house here is the main way for the Celestial Dragons to legally purchase slaves.

Like the Thorn Merchant Guild that previously transported slaves, their profit model involved sending carefully selected slaves here in exchange for high profits.

Bege, walking beside Kiro, noticed that his gaze was fixed on the auction house on the map and spoke up to remind him:

"The auction will only be held once a month, and the next one will be in a week."

"As for now, all the slaves are in this position."

He pointed to a spot on the map, "This is a warehouse located in the Celestial Dragons' residential area. The vast majority of slaves are currently imprisoned here."

"Generally speaking, at least several thousand slaves were imprisoned there."

Kiro nodded thoughtfully.

It seems that Fisher Tiger's rampage in Mary Geoise was actually about liberating this warehouse.

"What parts of Mary Geoise do you want to know?"

Beg glanced at Kilo, somewhat worried that the swordsman might come up with something too radical.

Although what he did had already stepped into a legal gray area, Beger still maintained a high level of professional ethics.

Now that he had accepted Kiro's money, he had to fulfill his request and show him around Mary Geoise.

Although it was unclear why Kilo did this, Bege didn't care.

As long as we don't cause any big commotion here that threatens his safety, it'll be fine.

Suddenly, Beg's tone turned serious, and he warned:

"Remember, don't even think about making a move in Mary Geoise!"

He glanced quickly at the longsword at Kiro's waist.

"I know you might be strong outside, but Mary Geoise is extremely dangerous. You absolutely mustn't lay a hand on them!"

Kilo raised an eyebrow, somewhat intrigued.

"Oh? Tell me more?"

Beg nodded.

"Every Celestial Dragon cherishes their life like gold and wishes they could keep a Marine Admiral by their side at all times."

"Most Celestial Dragons are accompanied by powerful guards who are always on guard against any potential threats."

Beg looked toward the central area of ​​Mary Geoise, a hint of apprehension and fear flashing in his eyes.

"It is said that there are incredibly powerful individuals stationed in Mary Geoise! ​​Even the headquarters of the secret intelligence agency, CP, is located here."

"and……"

Bege swallowed hard.

"If any Celestial Dragon is harmed in Mary Geoise, a Marine Admiral will immediately be dispatched and arrive here directly through secret channels."

"Once the Admirals make their move, no matter how powerful you are, you'll die on Mary Geoise!"

As he listened to Beg's account, Kilo silently memorized the valuable information.

Suddenly, he frowned and looked at Beg.

How do you know so much?

"Logically speaking, even the locals of Mary Geoise shouldn't know this kind of information, right?"

Bege froze, a barely perceptible hint of tension appearing on his face.

Just as he was trying to find an excuse to explain, Kiro patted him on the shoulder.

"Never mind, everyone has secrets, you and I are no exception."

"Come on, take me to see the service area first."

Kilo didn't press the matter further, and Bege clearly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, come with me."

Leading Kilo, he walked towards the outskirts of the service area.

Kilo followed behind Beg, silently memorizing the terrain and structure of Mary Geoise.

For the main force of the revolutionary army, this intelligence was extremely important strategic information.

Having a map of Mary Geoise would make their final assault much smoother and allow them to take the slaves away more easily.

The more we learn about Mary Geoise, the smoother the operation will proceed.

……

……

three days later.

"Yes, Dragon, this is the intelligence I've gathered over the past few days. I've already given the detailed map to Saul's main assault force."

On the other end of the Den Den Mushi came Ryu Zan-hsu's voice.

"Kilo, the intelligence you provided is extremely valuable, covering almost the entire scope of our operational plan."

"The main assault force has now arrived outside Mary Geoise and is ready to launch a surprise attack at any time, but..."

Dragon sighed.

"I need a little more time to get to Marineford, about a day."

"To ensure that the navy's combat forces are drawn in, you should remain calm and wait for me to make my move before launching a full-scale attack."

Kilo nodded.

"Okay, remember to let us know when you're ready."

Kiro then hung up the Den Den Mushi.

Everything is proceeding according to plan and is going very smoothly.

It took him three days to explore most of Mary Geoise under Beg's guidance.

They did not venture into the very heart of Pangu City and the vicinity of the slave warehouses.

Pangaea is the location of the Five Elders and Im, and Kiro doesn't want to confront them head-on right now.

Especially Im; with Kiro's current strength, if he rashly engages in battle with him, the only outcome will be his death.

Therefore, he did not choose to go there rashly, so as not to disturb the people in Pangu City.

The slave warehouses were heavily guarded due to the upcoming auction, and if Beg and Kiro went to gather intelligence, they would likely be discovered by the vigilant guards.

All other intelligence was relayed to the general offensive force by Kiro through a revolutionary scout who had secretly infiltrated the area.

Ivankov and Ginny, serving as temporary operations staff officers, had already formulated a detailed battle plan based on the intelligence gathered by Kilo, and everything was ready.

Now, all that's needed is for the dragon to arrive, and this spectacular surprise attack will begin.

but……

Kiro stroked his chin, his brows slightly furrowed.

For the past three days, he had been keeping an eye on Hancock and Clara, but had not seen any trace of them.

All these circumstances suggest that they could only be imprisoned in that heavily guarded warehouse!
