Traveler in the Pirate World

Grand Line White Earth Island Barudigo

In the white desert, filled with sand and dust, in a building hidden in the white rocks, Long was looking at some information.

Wearing a dog-head hat and holding a half-smoked cigarette, Terry Kildeo, a bearded man, knocked on the door gently. "Mr. Long, there is new information from the Guotai Qila Wolf on the East China Sea Bridge!"

"Come in!" Long put down the documents in his hand and looked at Kildeo who pushed the door open. "I remember that Barney Joe, who works for Belo Betty, is in charge of that place now. Is there anything wrong?"

Kildeo handed the document that Shadow had sent through the Shadow World to Long, "Miss Lily is there now, and it looks like she's planning to intervene in this matter."

Long paused for a moment as he flipped through the documents, then said, "Fully cooperate with Lily's actions, don't worry about the rest. Tell me about the other three sea bridges."

Gildeo spoke without hesitation about the progress of the bridges in the other three seas. The Intelligence Control Department had the best impression of Lily in the Revolutionary Army. The Shadow Mask allowed them to pass on important secret intelligence completely out of the surveillance of the World Government, greatly reducing the risk of lurking personnel.

After all the information was integrated in his brain, Long said, "Schedule a staff meeting immediately. The four bridges that have been discovered one after another may be far more important than we thought."

"Yes!" After Kildeo stepped down, he immediately started to deal with the matters of the Shadow Meeting.

The existing Revolutionary Army consists of five major legions: the Four Seas and the Grand Line. In addition, there is a General Staff led by Sabo. The Intelligence Control Agency is one of its subordinate departments.

The Shadow is a special department independent of all other agencies. In addition to being responsible for the transmission of important confidential information, it is also responsible for monitoring the Revolutionary Army to ensure the purity of the team.

A shadow is born within the body of every official member of the Revolutionary Army, with a relationship of light and shadow between them. However, the shadow will not completely obey the host. Except for the supreme controller Lily, the shadow is directly responsible for all cadres of the Revolutionary Army. It is a special existence that only exercises supervisory power but not the power of execution. All punishments are jointly decided by the Supreme Command Agreement.

The Shadow Mask is also the item with the largest delegated authority after Long asked Lily for help. Its co-owners are the current senior cadres of the Revolutionary Army who are jointly confirmed by the Revolutionary Army.

Originally this proposal was rejected, but after the high-ranking officials of the Revolutionary Army had met and observed Lily from afar, it was passed by a majority vote. Lily is now actually known as one of the core cadres within the Revolutionary Army. Of course, Lily has no idea about this, and even if she knew, she probably wouldn't care, after all, she is not in charge.

The Shadow Conference is a Shadow World Conference developed and utilized based on the characteristics of the Shadow World and the shadow and host being two sides of the same coin. The host consciousness is connected with its own shadow consciousness, and the host descends into the Shadow World to attend the conference.

During this process, the absolute safety of the surrounding environment must be guaranteed; otherwise, when facing high-level opponents, it is likely that one will not be able to make the correct judgment at the moment consciousness returns, thus resulting in casualties.

Half an hour later, Belo Betty was sitting in a conference hall built in the shadow world with supplies delivered from the outside world. Even though she was just a dark shadow, her charming figure could still be seen.

As a burly figure appeared, Betty Ying, who was a little bored, looked at Xiong Ying's figure and said, "Finally someone is here. I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"Hehe, it seems you are very free now, Betty girl!" Ivankov's voice came suddenly, scaring Betty.

"I say, could you please not be so scary, Ivan?" Betty couldn't help but say.

"By the way, do you know what this meeting is about?" A young male voice came, making several people look over.

"Sabo, could you please not speak so suddenly as soon as you get here?" Betty couldn't help but hold her forehead with her hand. The shadow world was good in every way except that living beings could not enter. Otherwise, they wouldn't have to use shadows to carry their consciousness. This also caused these guys to appear and disappear mysteriously every time they came.

"As for the reason for this meeting, I still have some guesses." Betty paused for a moment and said, "It should be for the four bridges located in the four seas and Lily who is now staying in Taiqila Wolf!"

"Why is Lily there?" Sabo couldn't help but frown, "That kind of place is not suitable for her to stay!"

Compared to the crazy people like Ace and Luffy, Sabo felt that he probably understood Lily better.

I still remember how Lily looked when she first saw a murder at the garbage terminal. The girl couldn't eat for several days and was obviously scared.

Perhaps even Lily herself didn't notice how much she disliked blood. Although she always hunted some wild beasts, she rarely saw blood.

The animals are processed using some methods that Sabo cannot understand, and are decomposed into clean and tidy ingredients. In fact, the decomposition of the ingredients is carried out directly using the decomposition and enhancement forging device.

Even when forced to kill, Lily's methods were never bloody. Even if there was blood, it was in another form and there was no sign of cruelty.

In Sabo's opinion, Lily is a very smart but naive girl, who has a kindness and bottom line that is incompatible with this world.

Unlike Luffy who will do whatever he decides to do without considering the consequences, Lily will have concerns before doing anything. Even if she cannot take it into consideration at the moment, she will definitely find a way to remedy it afterwards.

The little girl always has a lot of things to consider, and she always wants to do her best. She is afraid that her own mistakes will affect others, and she is also afraid that her mistakes will cause trouble.

This is both an advantage and a disadvantage, but this is why the top leaders of the Revolutionary Army took huge risks and agreed to the Light and Shadow Plan. That girl has something that this era does not have. In her eyes, all people should be equal, even if she herself does not know it, she thinks so.

"Yeah, that girl must be under great shock now. After all, the darkness in people's hearts is always frightening!" Betty sighed while lying on the table.

The quietly speaking crow had taken his seat at some point and murmured in agreement.

Lindbergh laughed and said, "You will see it sooner or later. This world is so cruel. Just see it when you see it!"

"I don't know how Lily is doing now. I'm so worried." The burly Mori said in a delicate voice.

Not long after everyone gathered and chatted, Long finally arrived. Looking at everyone who had already taken their seats, Long handed over the materials he had sorted out in his hand, "Since everyone is here, let's get started!"

Everyone took the document handed over by Long and read it in silence, and their faces gradually became less happy.

"Judging from the almost identical natural climates of the four bridges and the information we have obtained in the past, our previous speculation is very likely to be true. This is not good news!" Long spoke first when he saw that no one was speaking.

"Then it seems that none of these four bridges can be destroyed, otherwise the consequences will be more serious than we imagined." Sabo said with a serious face.

Mori put down the document in his hand and nodded, "The World Government is much more terrifying than people imagined!"

"But isn't this more challenging? Wouldn't it give my new weapon more room to be used?" Lindbergh said with a laugh.

……

As the meeting was coming to an end, Long suddenly asked Betty: "Are you free now, Betty?"

"Of course, now Ashilu is in charge of the arrangements for the aftermath. Things like building bases and reclaiming land for cultivation have nothing to do with me, okay?" Betty complained loudly. She really didn't like or was good at such matters, so she happily handed it over to her adjutant.

"Can you go and see Lily on my behalf? I'm worried about her current mental state?" Long's voice was as calm as ever, but everyone who knew him knew that it was not easy for Long to say such words.

Long was very worried about Lily's condition. Having experienced the O'Hara incident, he knew the inner torment when faced with something unacceptable.

"No problem, I haven't seen Lily for a long time, haha..." Betty laughed, but Lily didn't know at this moment that the terrifying woman was about to come.

After everyone left, Long looked at the bear who was still sitting there quietly, "Bear, do you really have to do that?"

"This is my choice, and also the agreement between me and Vegapunk." Xiong looked at the dragon's shadow and said calmly, as if the person slowly walking towards death was not himself, "Joelle Bonnie, thank you for your help."

After saying that, the bear disappeared, leaving Long sitting alone for a long time. For a moment, the conference hall fell into silence.
