Pirates on Rocks' Ship 996

The current situation is that the extraterrestrial visitors have secured the passage, and the fragile alliance between Reina and the World Government has cracked, but this is not the outcome the Master desired at all.

Because of their existence, Reina would never turn against the World Government now. However, if Reina were to enter the Flower Realm, the World Government would not tolerate his existence, as he might leak secrets at any time. Once they leave, the World Government would likely take action against Reina.

So now none of the three parties know what the other is planning, and they have all secretly begun to be on guard and have not yet made a move.

However, neither the World Government nor the extraterrestrial visitors wanted to wait any longer. One wanted to break through the defenses here as soon as possible and enter the Flower Chamber, while the other wanted to trick Reina and retreat immediately.

As if by prior arrangement, the extraterrestrial visitors and the World Government personnel attacked simultaneously, and Reina launched an attack in another direction the instant the two sides began to clash.

Now he is wary of the World Government, and the World Government also dares not trust Reina, for fear that Reina might suddenly attack and hurt people.

As for the visitors from outer space, they wanted to let Reina in, but they didn't dare to make it too obvious, so the three parties were deadlocked at the entrance of the Flower Garden.

Just as Reina was thinking about how to break the deadlock, he suddenly caught a glimpse of Karas quietly approaching.

Although he couldn't contact the other party now, Reina still secretly gave them a signal during the battle, hoping they would understand his meaning.

Soon, under Reina's deliberate lead, a gap appeared in the extraterrestrial visitors' defenses. However, since there was no one else there, the extraterrestrial visitors did not pay attention to it, or perhaps they intended for Reina to break through, so they deliberately created the gap.

However, they did not expect that just as their defensive formation showed a gap, a dark figure appeared directly behind Reina and headed straight for the flower room.

"Who is it?" The Five Elders were taken aback and roared in anger.

Their attention had been focused on the battle, so they hadn't noticed that there was someone hiding behind Reina.

Meanwhile, the extraterrestrial visitors seemed to have noticed and made attempts to stop them. Whether it was intentional or accidental, it was unclear. In any case, the extraterrestrial visitors were still fighting with the Five Elders, and with Reina's obstruction, Karas entered the Flower Chamber very smoothly.

At this moment, the Five Elders looked extremely grim.

They hadn't even seen who it was before the other person entered the flower garden.

Therefore, both the Five Elders and the extraterrestrial visitors believed that this was Reina's accomplice, a member of the Whitebeard Pirates.

But in reality, none of them knew that the person who went in was Karas, the commander of the revolutionary army.

Not long after Karas entered the Flower Chamber, just as the Five Elders were about to launch a full-scale attack, a violent explosion suddenly erupted inside the Flower Chamber.

Karas, who had just entered the Flower Garden, fled in a disheveled state amidst the explosion.

"What's going on inside?" Reina asked as he quickly backed away to help Karas.

"There's a terrifying guy inside! He's wearing a mask and a long cloak!" Karas said with a look of surprise and uncertainty. "When I went in, I only saw him fighting with the extraterrestrial visitor. Just one strike caused the destruction we just witnessed!"

"You mean... he just made his move? Did you see the leader of the Knights of God inside? That guy went in a few minutes before you!" Reina asked in surprise.

"Ahem... I saw him!" Karas nodded and said, "He's right next to that masked man. The masked man seemed to be restricted in some way and had been standing there without moving!"

Upon hearing this, Reina looked at the Venerable One and the others with some surprise and uncertainty.

He knew that what Karas saw must have been Lord Im, but how did the extraterrestrials know about Lord Im? And it seemed that they also had ways to deal with Lord Im.

To Reina's surprise, the Supreme Master smiled slightly and said, "Everyone... we'll meet again sometime!"

After saying this, the Venerable One planned to retreat with his subordinates.

"Who told you... you can leave?" Just then, from the collapsed flower room, Lord Im slowly walked out with the leader of the God's Knights.

The person in question was completely shrouded in a long robe and wore an astonishingly long crown. He looked somewhat eerie, especially his eyes, which even Reina found strange.

"It's him! Mr. Reina, it was him just now, who wiped out the extraterrestrial visitors inside in one move!" Karas said excitedly upon seeing Lord Im emerge.

Reina smiled slightly, looked at the other party, and greeted him, "Lord Im, it's been a long time! I really didn't expect that the extraterrestrial visitors would actually have designs on you. They really deserve to die!"

Lord Im glanced at Reina but did not answer. Instead, he focused his gaze on the visitor from outer space.

Today's events have greatly angered him; the other party actually made arrangements targeting him, resulting in damage to the World Tree.

He couldn't vent his anger unless he eliminated these intruders.

However, the Lord of the Palace seemed unconcerned, smiling at Lord Im and Reina, then waving his hand, appearing quite at ease.

"I said... go to hell!" Lord Im said, raising his hand.

But just when Reina thought the other party was about to unleash some move or ability, he found that there was no movement at all.

"Is this... a threat?" Reina said in a low voice, looking shocked.

"Hey~"

Just as Reina thought the other party was just talking trash, a laser beam suddenly shot straight towards the Supreme Master.

"Boom~~~"

The violent explosion completely destroyed the building opposite Lord Im, but the Supreme Being was completely unharmed. The laser beam had actually pierced through his body, and Reina even noticed that the Supreme Being's body was slowly disappearing.

"What is this thing?" Reina was completely confused.

Clearly, Lord Im was not joking. The impact of that level of force would be impossible for even a Venerable to defend against.

However, all the extraterrestrial visitors, including the Supreme Lord, slowly disappeared before their very eyes.

Chapter 1287 Reina's Speculation

"My lord, shall we continue the pursuit?" As the enemy slowly disappeared from sight, the leader of the Divine Knights asked Lord Im beside him.

Lord Im nodded and said, "Their teleportation technology is insufficient for them to leave directly! Send people out to search for them; I will make them pay the price!"

After saying that, Lord Im turned and left.

Reina and Karas exchanged glances. He sensed that the extraterrestrials and the World Government seemed to have many secrets, and that they knew each other well, perhaps possessing more intelligence than they, who had been fighting the extraterrestrials on the front lines for years.

After Lord Im and the Knights of God left, Reina and Karas also prepared to leave.

Before leaving, Reina looked at Jegarcia Satan Saint and said, "What you promised before... is it alright?"

The Five Elders originally wanted to say that Karas had entered the Flower Realm, but they also understood that although Karas and Reina were allies, they did not belong to the same faction, so they could only nod in agreement.

"Hehe... That's good! Anyway, you have a lot of secrets, I'll come back to find you again! You seem to know a lot about extraterrestrial visitors! It seems the situation in the North Sea isn't as bad as we thought!" Reina raised an eyebrow and said softly.

"Things aren't what you think! We don't know more about extraterrestrial visitors than you do, in fact, we know less! But there are some things that both we and they know, which is why this happened!" The five elders, a bald man in a white Taoist robe and wearing glasses, shook his head and said, "These things concern the secrets of this world, so you'd better not inquire about them!"

Reina nodded thoughtfully, then left with Karas.

Karas, standing next to Reina, remained silent throughout. As one of the four commanders of the Revolutionary Army and a sworn enemy of the World Government, he was certain that the World Government would have attacked him if Reina hadn't been there.

So even though he had a lot to say to Reina, he wisely kept his mouth shut.

After leaving Mary Geoise, Karas couldn't wait to ask, "Mr. Reina, who is this Lord Im?"

Reina thought about it. The Revolutionary Army would find out about this sooner or later, and they were allies of the Whitebeard Pirates. Even without extraterrestrial visitors, it would be a good thing to be on good terms with the Revolutionary Army.

So Reina shared Lord Im's information with Karas.

"So that's how it is! He's the mastermind behind the World Government!" Karas's eyes narrowed as he said, "His strength is immense; you could tell from that last laser beam. He's incredibly powerful!"

Reina nodded and asked, "When you entered the Flower Chamber, how many powerful beings from outer space were there? What were they doing?"

Karas gave a wry smile and replied, "When I went in, I only saw Lord Im make his move, and then there was an explosion. I only saw the leader of the Knights of God when I was knocked away!"

“It’s alright!” Reina shook his head upon hearing this and said, “But when you get back, you should remind Dragon to be careful. The extraterrestrial visitors’ goal is likely Lord Im, or to destroy something else. And this time they may have succeeded. Also, be careful about their method of teleporting away! In addition, the World Government should also be careful. They seem to have some information that we don’t know about!”

Reina didn't mention anything about the World Tree, because he himself wasn't very clear about it. He didn't even know the location of the World Tree, and he couldn't enter that strange space again.

"I understand. We are truly grateful to you this time. The revolutionary army will surely repay such a kindness in the future!" Karas said, clasping his hands in a fist salute.

"It's nothing, we're allies, sharing information is the most basic thing!" Reina waved his hand and said, "Want to come back with me? The World Government might not let you leave so easily!"

“It’s alright. Our revolutionary army has strongholds all over the world. This intelligence is very important. I need to inform the leader as soon as possible!” Karas shook his head and said with a smile.

So the two parted ways after traveling together for a while.

It's more convenient for Reina to do it alone. He can find a place, summon the hard shell, give it a direction, and it will move forward on its own.

Back on the hard shell, Reina relaxed a little. This operation was full of strangeness, and there were still many things he hadn't figured out.

After taking a shower, Reina lay back on the recliner and began to review the operation.

First, there's the extraterrestrial visitor's purpose. He's now 60% certain that the visitor's target is the World Tree. The remaining guess is that it's Lord Im.

The extraterrestrial visitor's purpose could only be one of these two clocks, and he was more inclined to choose the former.

The fact that the Venerable Ones were so composed before leaving proves that even if they didn't achieve 100% of their goal, they at least accomplished part of it.

However, when Lord Im finally emerged, he seemed unharmed, leading him to speculate that the target was more likely the World Tree.

Although he can no longer confirm the state of the World Tree, the unease he felt before has disappeared.

It should be noted that when he first met the Venerable One, that state persisted until he arrived in Mary Geoise, after which it gradually subsided.

Therefore, he suspected that the flower gardens of Mary Geoise were the secret passage to the World Tree.

Having figured this out, he was able to reconstruct most of the extraterrestrial visitors' actions: the Venerable One and the Venerable One of Destruction each led an elite squad to attack Mary Geoise from different locations, with one squad specifically there to draw the enemy's attention.

However, both teams are extremely powerful, and no matter which team is discovered, the other team will be able to complete the mission.

But there was still one thing he didn't understand: why didn't Lord Im attack the extraterrestrials after they entered the Flower Garden? Why did Lord Im only attack the extraterrestrials when Karas entered?

Based on what has happened so far, it seems that someone held off Lord Im, which gave the extraterrestrial raiding team time. When they finally came out after completing their mission, they were blocked by Lord Im and then eliminated.

But besides the Lord of the Palace and the Lord of Destruction, is there anyone else who can hold Lord Im back?

Although Reina didn't know Im's exact strength, he could tell from the laser that Im attacked the Venerable One that no one without Venerable-level strength could hold him off!

Chapter 1288 Sakazuki's Wrath

Besides the mystery of the extraterrestrial visitor's actions, Reina was also curious about how the Master left in the end. However, the World Government did not seem surprised, which meant that they knew about this or had seen it before.

This inevitably reminded Reina of the last time Mary Geoise was attacked by extraterrestrials.

It seems that they were tricked into going to Mary Geoise by Reina to retrieve the teleporter that Reina had stolen. Now it seems that they might have discovered something during their surprise attack on Mary Geoise, which led to this incident.

Besides the extraterrestrial visitors, the World Government also found something strange.

First of all, they definitely knew the extraterrestrial visitors' target, and they might even know some of their movements.

This is very strange.

How did they know that the extraterrestrial visitors were about to take action?

And then there's the way the extraterrestrial visitors left at the end; they didn't seem surprised at all.

While Reina was pondering some of the doubts surrounding this incident, deep within Mary Geoise, Lord Im was meeting with the Five Elders.

"My lord..." The five elders kneeling below did not even dare to raise their heads. This time they had clearly made ample preparations, and even the Knights of God had been mobilized, but in the end, the extraterrestrial visitors still managed to take advantage of the situation.
