On Fort Island, a luxurious merchant ship slowly docked, flanked by a well-trained naval formation, headed by Flory, the second-in-command of Fort Island.

After the ship docked, two well-dressed bodyguards came out first. They looked solemn and stood under the ship to act as guards.

Then, an elegant and luxurious blonde woman with flaming red lips walked down the stairs.

Flory stepped forward and saluted.

"Welcome to Fort Island, Ms. Stacy!"

The woman smiled and took off her sunglasses, revealing a pair of beautiful and shrewd eyes.

"Oh, it's such an honor for me to be greeted by Colonel Flory personally."

Flory extended his hand in invitation.

"If so, it would be an honor for me to meet Ms. Stracey. The best hotel suite in Liyue has been prepared for you. Please come this way."

"Oh, Liyue...it's such a good name. Does it mean anything?"

"This...I'm not very sure. It's the name given by the Major General. Maybe it means the heart of glass, which can be seen in the moon. It symbolizes that the justice of the Major General is as transparent as glass."

"Interesting. I have long heard that Lord Sword Master is young and very capable. I wonder if I can meet him?"

Flory laughed.

"Then you came at a bad time. The Major General is busy with official duties and is not in the city at the moment."

"That's really a pity."

"Ms. Stracey, you can rest assured that the purpose of your visit to Liyue this time is simply to build a happy street in Liyue. The Major General gave instructions before leaving. As long as it complies with the rule of law in Liyue, we are willing to give you the minimum rent."

"Oh? Does that mean Colonel Flory can make all the decisions?"

"Thanks to the Major General's trust, it is certainly possible."

"It's a really good master-servant relationship."

Flory's expression remained unchanged, he didn't even bother to pay attention to this level of provocation.

"Please, Ms. Stacy."

Flory received Stacey to Liuli Pavilion in Liyue, which is a hotel owned by Ningguang Holdings.

"This is your room. I wonder if Ms. Stacy is satisfied?"

Stacy stood on the attic of the top room, overlooking the entire Liyue.

"It's really nice. It has antique wooden buildings and you can enjoy the scenery of the entire Liyue. It's hard to imagine that this place was a deserted island half a year ago."

"As long as you are satisfied, according to your itinerary, I will take you to experience the customs and customs of Liyue in the past two days. It will not be too late for us to come back to discuss cooperation in two days."

"Liyue's customs and customs? Isn't it the Principality of Jinyang?"

Flory explained.

"Indeed, most of the residents of Liyue are immigrants from the Principality of Jinyang, but now they are the people of Liyue. In the words of the major general, no matter where they were before, as long as they get here, the rules of the major general will apply. It’s a rule.”

Stacy was speechless.

"It's so strong."

"The Major General thinks it's better to say ugly things in front of others, otherwise there will always be some people who are used to making fun of others. As long as the bottom line is not violated, the Major General is actually very lenient in managing the people."

"Is that so...how do I feel, Colonel, you are telling me this?"

Flory looked sincere.

"How could it be? I'm not targeting you, I'm targeting everyone here."

Stacy's smile faded.

"I'm a little tired after sailing all the way, so I won't delay Colonel Flory."

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore. If you need anything, you can contact me anytime."

Flory exited the room, and Stacy asked the bodyguards to go out and guard the door. Then she exploded and enveloped the entire room. After confirming that there was no surveillance equipment, she breathed a sigh of relief, and the calmness on her face disappeared, and her brows Frown slightly.

"Florry...it's actually him...it can't be wrong. Simons, the pagoda swordsman 20 years ago and his adjutant during the Warring States period, is actually alive!?"

Twenty years ago, when the Golden Lion escaped, Warring States, as a general, did not rush to Impel Down City immediately because of an incident that happened at the same time that year. This incident was very secret and was blocked by the entire navy.

At that time, in a place called the Principality of the Past, located on the Grand Line, everyone from the king to the common people were slave owners. It was a big country with a slave industry.

That day, the entire country turned into purgatory. A young man armed with a bloody scimitar killed all the royal families and nobles in the entire country in one day. The reason was because his sister was kidnapped by the people of the former king. He became a slave and was tortured to death.

That night was known as the Night of the Buddha. When the Warring States Period arrived, Simons, covered in blood, was sitting on the Throne of the Past Moon. The Buddha knife was stuck on the ground, shining a strange red in the moonlight.

From that day on, Sengoku no longer had his adjutant Simmons, but there was a corporal named Flory in the Navy.

Stacy's hands were shaking a little. She was a newcomer to CP3 back then and had participated in the Pagoda Night incident. She still remembers the cold eyes of the man on the throne at that time.

Even later, Flory became her inner nightmare, so even after 20 years, Flory has aged and his face has become softer, but she still recognized the former pagoda swordsman at a glance.

"It's been 20 years... What kind of strength does he have now... Bogart was overwhelmed by him back then."

After thinking again and again, Stacy took out CP0's secret hotline and reported the situation.

But the answer she got was that she didn't need to worry about it, Cha Kong was the focus.

"Did the superiors reach some kind of agreement with the Warring States Period?"

Stacy felt that she was in some trouble. She had investigated before she came. Kong trusted Flory very much. According to her previous habit, the easiest way to investigate a person was to start with the most trusted person around him.

Her method of coercion and inducement coupled with strong financial support has been tried and true. She originally planned to take Flory as her own this time to monitor everything in the sky.

But now that she learned that the other party was Simmons from back then, she immediately gave up this idea.

"Gotta plan again."

On the other side, Flory also called Sora and told him about Stacy.

"That's it, Major General. I always feel that this Stacy is a bit strange. Her Happy Street business is so big. Why did she suddenly find us, Liyue, to cooperate?"

"Here, I forgot to tell you before, that Stacy is CP0, and should be sent by the World Government to check on me, so don't worry about it."

Flory was shocked.

"CP0? Are you sure? Doesn't this organization only take orders from the Celestial Dragons?"

"Yes, after all, I should have been dead at that time on Justice Island, but I came back alive. It's normal for them to be suspicious, so there's no need to offend her."

"Is that so... Do you want to do something to hinder it?"

"You have free time. By the way, I'll be back tomorrow. Do you want to go out and play? I don't know if the fish-man dessert shop in Shampoo is still open."

"Me? Stacy is here, so I'd better stay in the city. If I leave, won't she have no one to watch her?"

"I told you not to care about her. She can investigate whatever she wants. I'm not afraid. It's settled like this. You help build the boat and I'll pick up Keli."

"Hey, but we don't have any vacation this year?"

"What holiday? Aren't we on patrol? Flory, you are an old man too. Although we have a base camp now, we can't forget our duties as patrol officers."

"......I see."
