Chapter 166
The next day.
Stussy somehow managed to get hold of a small boat.
Looking back, in the distance she could faintly see the silhouettes of the ten islands surrounding Ryūyū Island.
After a night of being "baptized by cannon fire," Stussy was still released by Rorschach.
With a complicated expression, Stussy took out a Den Den Mushi from the deep groove in front of her.
If Rorschach could see this scene, he would definitely be shocked. Yesterday he clearly saw there was nothing inside, yet now she could pull out a Den Den Mushi.
Could there be a hidden dimensional space inside that he didn’t know about?
Bru bru bru bru.
Stussy dialed the number. It was picked up after a moment.
"Stussy?"
A puzzled voice came from the other side.
Somewhat surprised, yet also feeling it was to be expected.
"Yes, Lord Five Elders."
Stussy’s tone and expression became extremely respectful and serious. The face on the other side of the Den Den Mushi also changed to an identical expression.
The one speaking with her was none other than the highest leaders of the World Government — Stussy’s direct superiors, the Five Elders, whom Rorschach called the "senile five-man group."
"What exactly happened? Is what Morgans reported true? Weren’t you exposed and captured by that brat Rorschach?"
A string of questions poured out from the Den Den Mushi. frёewebηovel.cѳm
Clearly, Morgans’ news had spread faster. By now, it had probably spread across the entire sea.
Big Mom’s eating disorder rampage and her fight with Rorschach, Stussy’s spy identity, Rorschach publicly declaring his challenge to the four sea emperors.
Not long after the Sabaody Archipelago incident, Rorschach had once again set the entire sea abuzz with discussion.
"Mmm, this is exactly what I wanted to report, Lord Five Elders."
"Rorschach’s strength seems to have exceeded our expectations. Even the Four Emperors cannot stop him. His power has already completely reached that level."
"Moreover, he shares the same ambition as the Golden Lion and that person, and he has quite sufficient plans and schemes."
"He also has an extremely powerful dragon-shaped creature. From the oppressive feeling alone, its strength is no less than that of a pirate with a bounty exceeding one billion."
After Stussy finished speaking, the other side fell into silence.
Rorschach had already shown his extremely dangerous side during the Sabaody Archipelago incident. At the time, they hadn’t paid too much attention.
They were mainly furious about him turning Celestial Dragons into slaves.
They had personally given the order to send only five CP0 members. But all of them were killed by him.
Now they were starting to regret it. They should have sent the God’s Knights to eliminate Rorschach back then.
They just felt it was a bit troublesome and thought it wasn’t necessary to dispatch the God’s Knights. Now there was no medicine for regret — it was already too late.
"I never expected that even after the Golden Lion died, he would leave behind such a big disaster."
"We must think of a way to stop him."
The Five Elders began discussing on the other side of the Den Den Mushi.
"Stussy, how exactly did you escape from Rorschach’s hands?"
The God of Scientific Defense, Jaygarcia Saturn, asked with a grave expression while holding the Den Den Mushi.
Stussy had escaped from Rorschach’s hands on the second day after being captured. This inevitably raised his suspicion.
However, Stussy had served as a CP0 agent for over twenty years in the World Government and had made many contributions, so there was still a certain level of trust.
But the necessary investigation still required asking first.
"That Rorschach is simply a lustful ghost. The night he captured me, he was extremely impatient. After he fell asleep exhausted, I took the opportunity to escape his imprisonment and fled his base overnight."
"Because his body is extremely hard, ordinary attacks can’t break his defense at all. Rashly attacking might wake him up, so I chose to escape and report the information here to you."
Stussy had already prepared this explanation in advance. These were the things Rorschach had instructed her to say.
Except for some secrets, she could report everything else to the World Government as she wished.
"So that’s how it is. You used your beauty to escape?"
The Five Elders suddenly understood. They didn’t expect Stussy to have such an escape plan.
Their suspicion toward Stussy gradually dissipated.
For other suspicious people, such a full-of-holes story wouldn’t be enough to clear suspicion.
But for the senile five-man group, it was sufficient.
They were too confident, to the point of blindly trusting their own judgment. Stussy was an undercover they had cultivated for many years. It was absolutely impossible for her to betray the World Government.
Plus, Rorschach’s personality was exactly as rumored — a playboy who loved women. So they also judged that there was no lie in what Stussy said.
"Lord Five Elders, since the Golden Lion II Rorschach was able to accurately know my undercover identity, I suspect there is already an undercover inside the World Government!"
"Moreover, this undercover’s level is not low. They clearly knew my identity. If we don’t eliminate the undercover soon, it will likely cause great trouble."
Next, Stussy turned the tables and blamed the exposure of her identity on an undercover within the World Government.
This way, she could better cover up the true situation of her identity being exposed.
At that time, most guests at the tea party had already fainted. Big Mom wouldn’t go around spreading the matter either.
Morgans kept his mouth shut about this as well. Although he wasn’t afraid of the World Government.
But as someone who knew Stussy well, he didn’t want to invite her retaliation. Moreover, this would make the development of events more interesting.
So Morgans also chose not to expose this part of the information.
Therefore, currently only the Charlotte Family members who were still awake at the time, Morgans, and Rorschach knew the fact that Stussy was a clone.
"I understand this matter. Do you have any information on the location of Rorschach and his group?"
After the other side acknowledged it, they began asking for other intelligence on Rorschach.
"From observation, Rorschach’s group should currently be on an island in the Calm Belt, and they can move at any time. So I’m not very clear on the exact location."
"I also escaped by jumping off the island in the middle of the night, using some items to glide combined with Moon Step."
Stussy answered calmly.
The location of Rorschach’s side was one of the secrets that could not be revealed.
The story had already been prepared in advance.
"Damn it, as expected. He really is like a loach. The Float-Float Fruit ability is too troublesome."
Upon hearing this, all the Five Elders frowned tightly and secretly cursed.
They weren’t afraid of Rorschach’s strength, but they feared this ability of his to move locations at any time, and they couldn’t accurately grasp his movements.
This was an even bigger headache than the other Four Emperors.
Without accurate information, it meant the unknown, and they couldn’t control it.
"You did very well, Stussy. You can return to the World Government now and wait for new instructions. You can put the New World aside for now. Someone else will investigate the remaining matters."
Upon hearing this, Jaygarcia Saturn decisively ordered.
He instructed Stussy to return to the World Government, then dispatched other CP0 agents to investigate the mole inside.
It seemed this time, the World Government would also purge some of the undercovers the pirates had planted within the World Government.
"Yes, Lord Five Elders."
After replying respectfully, Stussy hung up the call.
The Den Den Mushi was stuffed back into the dimensional groove.
She looked back once more at the islands.
Then she controlled the small boat and left without looking back.
