“It’s alright, you go about your business, Rorschach.”

"Yeah, we two may not have much else, but we have plenty of time. You can come over and chat with us anytime. To be honest, it's pretty boring to stay here all day."

The two quickly waved their hands.

In reality, both of them were somewhat moved at this moment.

They had already witnessed Rorschach's power.

It can be said that it was an absolute force that they could not match.

Even though the two were confident in the power of the giants, they were not so arrogant as to think they could defeat the young naval officer in front of them.

However, this powerful naval commander was very approachable and spoke in a very easygoing manner.

Unlike those arrogant CP9 members on Enies Lobby, who, with a little ability, always put on a haughty, self-important face.

Especially that pigeon-loving man, Rob Lucci.

His face was so sour, like everyone owed him money.

As Rorschach passed through the gates of Enies Lobby, a skeletal-looking naval lieutenant commander approached him, somewhat excitedly, and snapped to attention, saluting him sharply.

"Naval Headquarters Lieutenant Commander T. Penn greets Commodore Rorschach!"

"Lieutenant Colonel Peng En, I've heard so much about you. I've heard that you're known as the 'Ship-Slaying Hero' by the pirates of the Grand Line, and that you're skilled in straightforward swordsmanship. I'd really love to see it for myself someday."

Rorschach smiled and extended his hand.

"Brigadier General Luo Xia is too kind. My meager skills are utterly insignificant in front of you."

Peng En was a little flattered and quickly extended his hands to shake hands with Luo Xia.

When he saw Luo Xia's exceptionally handsome face, he lowered his head slightly in embarrassment, as if trying to hide his own terrifying-looking face.

Noticing this subtle movement from Penn, Rorschach couldn't help but clench his fist.

He would never forget the tragic end that the ugly but righteous man who cared for his subordinates had in the comic book.

T. Penn is definitely one of the kindest and most righteous naval commanders in the Navy.

In Rorschach's view, his sense of justice was even purer than that of Smoker, Garp, and others!

However, this naval commander, who was so righteous and kind, ultimately met his end by being ambushed and killed by the very civilians he was protecting, and had to take his head to the Cross Guild to collect the bounty.

This is practically a slap in the face to the entire navy.

This is a blatant trampling of justice and the promotion of evil.

And so, Bucky's Cross Guild was able to live a carefree life in the New World.

He was clearly a complete villain from the moment he appeared.

They bombarded Orange Town, which had villagers, with cannons.

Because of the addition of some humorous and lucky attributes, they can travel freely and escape unharmed no matter what dangers they encounter.

Not only did they bring out a large number of prisoners from Impel Down, but they also established the Cross Guild, which offered bounties to all the high-ranking naval officers with names and titles.

This places countless naval warriors, who are willing to sacrifice themselves for justice, in endless danger, constantly on guard against attacks from civilians, pirates, bounty hunters, and even their own colleagues.

Rorschach was eager to know whether Bucky's Conqueror's Haki would still be effective after he encountered him.

Seemingly sensing the chilling killing intent emanating from Rorschach, Peng En looked up in surprise.

"Brigadier General Rorschach, is there something wrong with this?"

Rorschach shook his head. "I'm just a little saddened. Why can't we ever get rid of all the pirates on the high seas? Their rampant spread forces our navy to sacrifice countless brave sailors every year. Has the Great Pirate Era, created by Roger, brought any benefits to this world?"

"Ah, Brigadier General Rorschach, what you said really resonated with me."

Peng En sighed, his gaze lowered, and his face was filled with sorrow: "Roger's last words have left this world riddled with holes, and countless people are flocking to the elusive Great Treasure he spoke of."

"Young men and women from all over the world flocked to the sea, becoming lawless pirates who wreaked havoc everywhere."

"Without the young and strong, the villages, islands, and countries are left with only the old, weak, sick, and disabled, they become increasingly impoverished and decaying, making it even more difficult to resist the invasion of ferocious pirates."

"This also makes our navy's defense work even more difficult."

The two chatted as they walked toward the interior of Enies Lobby.

"Brigadier General Rorschach, what are your thoughts on Water Seven?"

Peng En suddenly asked.

Luo Xia paused, then thought carefully for a moment, "A beautiful, peaceful, and safe shipbuilding paradise."

Water Seven is a giant geyser island floating on the sea.

Its magnificent appearance certainly makes it a beautiful place to visit.

It is said to be peaceful and safe because within Water Seven, there is a group of valiant shipwrights who, while building all kinds of ships, also have the resources to protect this pearl-like town on the sea.

Now, Rob Lucci and others have disguised themselves and infiltrated the group.

Water City thus became safer.

At least, that's how it appears on the surface.

Peng En nodded. "You see, even in such a beautiful, peaceful, and safe place, there are still persistent pirates who come to plunder every year. Sea trains sailing on the sea are sometimes robbed on the way."

"Even worse, some pirates will block the tracks of the sea train and extort money from it. If they don't pay, they will cut the rails, doing such heinous things."

"I am the Navy officer in charge of the Sea Train route between Enies Lobby and Water 7. Over the years, I have personally witnessed some excellent and brave Navy soldiers sacrifice themselves under the swords of pirates."

Chapter 197 CP9, Spandam

The overall terrain of Enies Lobby is quite peculiar.

It resembles a giant, round-handled ladle combined with a small round bowl, suspended above an enormous, bottomless abyss.

The mouth of the abyss is circular, with a waterfall formed by the surging seawater flowing in from the edge.

To enter the bowl-shaped core building of Enies Lobby from the spoon-shaped part of the front island, unless you can fly, you can only go through the drawbridge on the other side of Enies Lobby.

A few kilometers behind the Tower of Justice, on the sea, stand two enormous gates of justice.

The warships that Rorschach and his crew came from there.

Since it was impossible to enter the Tower of Justice directly from that side, we went around in a big circle and arrived at the front entrance of Enies Lobby.

Unexpectedly, they got tangled in the railway tracks that were submerged in the sea.

Just as Rorschach followed Penn toward the Tower of Justice.

The top of the towering Justice Tower.

In the huge, empty hall, several oddly shaped men sat bored on the sofa, yawning.

Some are as fat as a ball, with thin limbs, and have a zipper installed on their mouths.

There was one with long, pink hair that dragged on the ground, a large body, and purple paint on her face.

There was also one with a long braid and two long wisps of mustache.

The three were the three CP9 members who remained on Enies Lobby: Otori, Kuga, and Jabra.

"I really don't know why the officer called us together. There's no killing mission to carry out in broad daylight. Can't he just let me get a good night's sleep?"

Gabra looked annoyed and put his legs up on the table in front of him, shaking them.

"Hey, you want to go to the island's cafeteria to peep at Catherine, the new waitress there, while she's taking a shower? Gabra, you pervert, hey hey hey!"

The owl unzipped its beak and spoke quickly.

Upon hearing this, Gabra jumped up from the sofa like a wolf whose tail had been stepped on, and retorted with a guilty look, "Owl! Don't slander me out of thin air! I, Gabra, am an upright person, how could I do such a shady thing?"

"Bah, I saw it all. Not only did I see it, I also secretly took pictures of you secretly taking pictures of Catherine."

As he spoke, the owl pulled out a few photos from his pocket and tossed them in front of Gabra.

In the photo, Gabra is seen with a lewd expression and drool dripping from his mouth, holding a camera and secretly taking pictures of the window in front of him.

"You bastard peeping tom! I'm going to kill you!"

The moment Gabra saw these photos, his dark face turned a deep red, like a pig's liver. He grabbed the photos as if his eyebrows were on fire, stuffed them into his arms, and then darted toward the owl, reaching for its beak with both hands.

At the same time, he turned his head to question Waitori, who was sitting blankly on the sofa: "Waitori! Didn't Commander Spandam tell you to keep an eye on him and not to gossip around?"

Kuchiki's features contorted in shame. "Oh dear... I didn't do well enough. I'll commit seppuku right now."

As he spoke, he drew a sharp, gleaming dagger from his waist and, without a word, plunged it into his own abdomen.

Upon seeing this, Gabra immediately reached out, his face filled with horror: "Stop! This is just a small matter, it's not something that warrants seppuku!"

"Since it was my mistake, then I must take responsibility. I will commit seppuku..."

Ignoring Gabra's advice, Wei Qu gripped the knife with both hands and stabbed himself hard in the abdomen.

With a metallic clang, the sharp blade of the short knife snapped, sparking a burst of fire at his abdomen.

"Yo yo yi, yo yo yi, because I subconsciously used the Iron Body technique, my seppuku failed. Sorry, I'll try again."

After saying that, he pulled out another short knife from somewhere, gripped it with both hands, and pointed it at his abdomen.

Just then, crisp footsteps sounded at the entrance of the hall.

All three of them were startled and turned around to look. They saw Rob Lucci with his hands in his pockets and Kaku eating a banana as they walked in.

"Hmm? What brings you two back? Is Carrera Company on holiday today, or is there another assassination mission that requires your assistance?"

Gabra dropped the owl he had caught and looked at Lucci with a surprised expression.

Lu Qi raised his right hand, gave a thumbs-up behind him, and said indifferently, "I was just summoned back by that useless commander on a whim."

As soon as he finished speaking, an annoyed voice came from outside the hall.

"I'm your superior officer, can't you show some respect, Lucci?"

Then, a thin man with long purple hair and dark circles under his eyes staggered in, looking annoyed.

Upon seeing the newcomer, Gabra instinctively spread his index fingers and thumbs together, forming a rectangle, and aimed it at Spandam, striking a pose as if taking a photograph.

"Oh dear, Commander Spandam's Dao power value is only 9 points, while a third-class recruit who just entered the Navy has 10 points. So, the commander is indeed a piece of trash."

Upon hearing Gabra's taunt, Spandam's face twitched, and he angrily drew his long sword from his waist.
