I'm in One Piece, and I'm Luffy's childhood friend.

Shura wanted to rise up, but dared not; he dared not question God's decision, as did the other two.

"Humph!"

In the end, it all turned into a cold snort at Bai Yun.

Gaidaz only glanced at Bai Yun a couple more times.

Ohm, despite having only met him once, always felt that he was very familiar with Bai Yun.

Chapter 302 The Great Golden Operation

Although Ohm and his companions were puzzled and annoyed that Enel had become a new priest and their new colleague, they dared not question God's choice. As priests, they knew Enel's strength better than anyone else.

........

"Alright, there's no need for any of that fake welcoming ceremony."

Enel said.

“Indeed, I don’t think there will be any nice ceremony.” Although the welcoming ceremony for him was canceled, Bai Yun agreed, since he wasn’t really there to join.

For some reason, even after being a god for several years, these people still obey his every command. Enel found Bai Yun's current state quite amusing.

"You're right."

Enel replied, then ignored Bai Yun and got down to business.

"It seems you don't take those Qinghai people seriously."

"Their goal is gold."

Clearly, either Enel overheard Luffy and his crew's plan at the altar lake, or, of course, any Blue Sea person who came to Skypiea and knew of the existence of the Golden City would be after it! That's gold!!

"They should be taking action tomorrow, and Shandia will launch another attack."

"Therefore, tomorrow this island of the gods will be fully open to you."

"In fact, the [Proverbs] are almost finished, and we should bring things to a close on this island as soon as possible."

"motto?"

Bai Yun repeated it.

Enel looked at him and said, "You'll find out in the end that you'll be going to the trial tomorrow just like everyone else."

"It doesn't matter if there's no specific training ground, it doesn't matter how it's conducted, we don't need to worry about the rules, we can cause a complete uproar..."

"That sounds like it'll be really interesting. Even if the island is split in two, it won't matter?"

Bai Yun asked.

"Hahaha, I hope you have that ability!!"

Enel laughed loudly, grabbed the apple he had been tossing around, and took a bite.

"Do not disappoint me."

"Only by solving this problem perfectly can we embark on our journey to the world of dreams!"

Bai Yun suppressed a laugh; those three were definitely not going.

.........

"I told you so! I told you so!!"

"There was definitely someone here yesterday!!"

"What I'm seeing is real; it's definitely not a dream!!"

"The Going Merry is repaired!!"

Usopp pointed at the Going Merry on the altar and shouted.

All you could see on the Going Merry were pieces of sheet metal, and the mast was also reattached by rotating sheet metal, making it look like a person covered in bandages.

Back on the ship, everyone was puzzled, but the Merry was indeed repaired.

Strangely, after the Going Merry was repaired, it completely returned to its original state.

Previously, the comb and wings were removed in the flying mode.

"How would the people who repaired the ship know that the Going Merry didn't have a tail, wings, or comb before?"

"What do you think, Merry... who actually fixed you...?"

Usopp murmured, looking at the prow of Merry's sheep boat.

Bai Yun patted him on the shoulder.

"Anyway, it's always a good thing that the Going Merry is repaired. Don't think too much about it, Mr. Long-Nosed."

"The matters arranged by Miss Orange Hair are quite important right now."

Usopp agreed upon hearing this.

"Indeed, I just can't understand it no matter how I think about it. Let's go, let's go, White... Forest Mask."

The two looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh. Whether it was the black...long nose or the white...forest mask, they were both kind of funny.

........

Nami held up the map and explained it to everyone.

The plan is to split the force into two groups.

The expedition team was tasked with searching for gold at ancient ruins.

The retreat team then followed the Cloud River back to the exit of the Island of Gods, and from there circled the Island of Gods to the northern coast of the ancient ruins, where they waited to rendezvous with the expedition team.

This is the plan, which we call: Operation Gold!

There aren't many detailed guidelines; just go for it.

The expedition team consists of: Luffy, Zoro, Robin, and Chopper.

The evacuation team consisted of: Bai Yun, Sanji, Usopp, Nami, and of course Gan Fall and Pierre.

"good!!"

"Set off!!"

With smiles on their faces, the group embarked on this epic battle for gold!

Chapter 303 Five

The Straw Hat Pirates have launched Operation Golden.

If they succeed, just as Nami said, they will become the "Millionaire Pirates" and can buy whatever they want.

However, how can you get the completion reward without defeating the final boss?

Meanwhile, the battle for survival had begun on God's Island, with the Straw Hat Pirates, Shandians, and the shrine forming a chaotic three-way conflict.

.........

Luffy and his four-person expedition team had barely taken a few steps when an accident occurred.

A colossal sky island lord appeared, its fangs bared enough to swallow three Merry ships.

Because of its appearance, Luffy and his crew were forced to separate.

Their original route was to go straight south from the altar, which would lead them to the ruins.

Currently, only Robin is still on the correct route.

Chopper headed southeast.

The road flew southwest.

Zoro, as expected, turned back and found himself back at the starting point when he reached the finish line.

.........

Shrine area.

Now, only Enel and some god servants who are incapable of fighting remain.

"Have they reached the bottom yet?"

Enel asked.

The attendant respectfully replied, "Yes, they have all been taken away."

"Starting with the trials of three... four priests, plus the chief of the divine soldiers leading 50 elite divine soldiers... this is the entire force mobilized."

"God, is it necessary to be so cautious?"

"Their opponents are only Shandians and a few Qinghai people..."

"Haha, festivals are more fun when they're lively."

In Enel's words, the life-or-death survival battle was nothing more than a ritual for amusement.

"A total of eighty-three people. This is a massive battle for survival! Hahaha."

"Three hours later, guess how many people will be left?"

Enel posed a question.

The servant dared not refuse, but said it was an area he was not good at. However, Enel said to go by intuition, so the servant naturally dared not refuse again.

It is estimated that 50 people will remain after three hours.

Enel burst into laughter upon hearing this, spitting out the fruit pulp from his mouth.

"No, that's incredibly naive. You're underestimating this battle."

"Three hours later, the battle for survival on this island will only end with..."

With that, Enel stretched out one hand, fingers spread, and spoke in a very confident tone.

Five people.

.........

"You trashy Qinghai person, why are you following me?"

Shura sat cross-legged on a protruding rock, looked up at Bai Yun standing on a tree branch, and asked.
