Zhu Tian started by deceiving his father-in-law from the perspective of pirates.

You can't have your cake and eat it too!

No! Only children make choices; I want them all.

"Then why do you want to connect two worlds? With your current power, it should be easy to transport a small number of people back and forth!" Retson asked.

"The big guy I brought with me before, who is also my father-in-law, is one of the top experts in their world. He controls a powerful country."

"He has a massive army, and I've given some of his men demon blood," Rhodes said.

"What! Are you crazy? Where did you get the blood of the Pit Lord? Did you make a deal with the demons of the Burning Legion?" Tres suddenly stood up and said.

"Calm down, my mentor. If I made a deal with the demons of the Burning Legion, do you think I would still come to you? To learn more powerful ways to use fel energy? Or something else? Why wouldn't I just ask the Legion for it?"

"I accidentally summoned a terrifying guardian, and after killing it, I obtained a small vial of blood from an unknown abyss lord," Rhodes said.

“But why do you want them to drink the blood of fel energy? They are easily corrupted and will become completely obedient to the Abyss Lord’s orders,” Retson said.

Breaking free from the control of this bloodline is extremely difficult; one must kill the Abyss Lord.

"This is a strange phenomenon I discovered. In that world, it seems that the fel energy has undergone some kind of change. You noticed the two guys I brought and me, right?"

If the evil energy within us doesn't leak out on its own, no one will be able to detect it.

"My father-in-law, Kaido, drank more than 80% of the blood of the Abyss Lords," Rhodes said.

Chapter 51 Persuading the Mentor, Target: Her Majesty the Queen

Upon hearing this, the old orc opened his mouth wide once again; he had heard a bit too much news today.

"That's impossible. After consuming so much Abyss Lord blood, there's no way he wouldn't have changed at all."

"If the power of fel energy is really so easy to control, then what are we warlocks?" Retson said.

“I didn’t lie to you, mentor. The laws of that world are completely different from our world, or even in another world.”

"I've learned another skill, but in our world, no matter how hard you try, even if you know the method, you can't learn it," Rhodes said.

“I come from Draenor, and I’ve ventured deep into the Twisting Nether with a few warlock friends, casting dangerous spells, but we’ve never heard of any other planet with such capabilities,” Retson said.

Haha! Of course it's different. I'm traversing worlds, even beyond the concept of the multiverse. In the future, I will also come into contact with the super-universe, the omnipotent universe, and the transcendent universe.

It's a completely different world, with different laws, rules, and even creators.

In the eyes of his teacher, Rhett, he had simply gone to another planet, but Rhett didn't intend to explain too much to him.

"Look at my mentor, this is the power of the New World, the power of Devil Fruits, especially Zoan-type Devil Fruits that enhance physical strength."

Furthermore, in that world, fel energy transforms into a power similar to a Devil Fruit ability, and does not cause any serious damage to the body.

"Unless we return to our world and have our bodies infused with a large amount of fel energy again," Rhodes said.

Now, it's just ordinary fel magic practice, which no longer affects my body. My body has reached a balance, and unless this balance is broken, my fel energy will not overflow.

Even now, his own body still has the upper hand. Even if he were to receive another infusion of fel energy, Rhodes is confident that he can control these fel energies and prevent them from corrupting or harming his body.

Warlocks have a very serious physical defect. After orcs research fel energy, their originally brown skin turns green, and they may even develop demonic features.

Humans, gnomes, blood elves—regardless of race, if you study fel energy, it will more or less cause some changes to your body.

To be completely unaffected is absolutely impossible; he never even dared to imagine it before.

After all, even powerful figures like Sargeras, the leader of the Burning Legion, and his right-hand men Archimonde and Kil'jaeden, were not spared from being corrupted by fel energy.

But if this is true, then another path for warlocks emerges: the safe use of fel energy, which is the ultimate pursuit of warlocks!

"When do you plan to go to another world? I'm willing to go with you. If what you say is true, then I will provide you with the detailed method for making the Dark Portal. But opening the Dark Portal requires powerful spatial energy. Do you have that?" Retson asked.

The prospect of safely controlling fel energy was too tempting for the old orcs.

"My mentor, I possess a vast amount of spatial energy, so I have absolutely no need to plunder life from other worlds to obtain energy from them."

"If all goes well, my other companions want to learn the way of the warrior, and I need to capture an Abyss Lord," Rhodes said.

The Marineford War is about to begin, and Rod plans to return to the pirate world.

However, before going back, Runti, Yamato, and even himself need to learn the way of the warrior, since their physical fitness is sufficient.

Other high-ranking members of the Beasts Pirates, and even some powerful figures in the future pirate world, are waiting for the blood of evil energy! Therefore, capturing an Abyss Lord is inevitable.

“Given your companion’s physical abilities, learning the way of the warrior shouldn’t be too difficult. As for the Abyss Lord you mentioned, do you want me to help you capture one?” Retson asked.

Capturing an Abyss Lord is no easy feat. The Abyss Lords, also known as the Annihran, are an extremely powerful demon race.

Each of them is extremely powerful, and most of them hold important general positions within the Burning Legion.

“I’m confident I can summon an Eredar, but as for a Pit Lord, I’m afraid that’s impossible. At least I can’t do it alone, and even with you, it’s still not possible,” the old orc shook his head and said.

Capturing an Abyss Lord is no easy feat.

“In the Outland! At the very bottom of Hellfire Citadel, there is a Pit Lord being imprisoned. My target is this Pit Lord,” Rhodes said.

There's absolutely no need to summon it, isn't there one already?

In the future, Kil'jaeden might even recruit a Brutallus. Pit Lords are valuable creatures; we need to capture them, fatten them up, and then drain their blood.

"Is this why you came to the tribe? How did you know that the blood elves wanted to join the tribe? This news shouldn't have spread yet," Retson said, glancing at Rhodes.

The main reason you came to the Horde is probably because the Blood Elves can open a portal to Outland, right?

“This is my secret. All they need is a small coordinate for me to travel to the Outer Realms,” Rhodes said.

“I personally have no problem with it, and I can help you capture the Abyss Lord without any problem either, but how do you plan to persuade the Blood Elf race?” Retson asked.

“I would like to ask Sylvanas, the Banshee Queen, for help with this matter. I have a very special undead creature in my possession, and I think Sylvanas would be very, very interested in it,” Rhodes said.

The main purpose of keeping that idiot Brook around is to use him for trading.

As for the research, Rhodes has already done some research, but he didn't gain much, or rather, he's not at his current level to do it, so he'll give it to the Banshee Queen for now!

The Blood Elves joined the Horde through Sylvanas's connections, and she gave her such a special undead.

Then ask her for a small favor; there shouldn't be any major problems.

“A special undead! How special?” Retson asked.

“He’s so unusual that if he didn’t take off his black cloak, no one would believe he was an undead,” Rhodes said.

This bizarre undead will surely shock a certain queen so much that she'll have to greet the Blood Elf race and send herself to the Outer Realms.

This was a piece of cake for her, and the most important thing was...

We can also gather intelligence on Kael'thas to prepare for taking him down in the future.

Chapter 52 The Wisdom of the Tribal Chief, Elysis's Firestorm

To eliminate Kael'thas, I must first convince everyone that he has sided with the Burning Legion and that I am eliminating him for the sake of justice.

“In that case, you just need to ask the Warchief to introduce you to Sylvanas. I think he should agree. I can also help you out, provided that your undead is indeed special enough,” Retson said.

If his disciple could really persuade Sylvanas, then there wouldn't be much of a problem. He could help by speaking to Thrall, and Thrall's attitude towards Rhodes and his group was also very friendly.

After all, the orcs are extremely warlike. If you defeat them head-on with absolute force, without using any magic or other spells, you will earn unprecedented respect.

Although Rhodes and his men gave Orgrimmar a hard time upon arrival, the effect was surprisingly good for the orcs.

“Believe me, that skeleton of our mentor is absolutely bizarre. To be honest, if it weren’t for his problematic personality and his unwillingness to listen to me, I really wouldn’t have given him away,” Rhodes said.

Brook's personality is such that only someone like Luffy can handle him. Given Rod's personality, it's practically impossible for him to be subdued.

As for whether Sylvanas can subdue the other party, well! That depends on the skills of that queen.

After their conversation, the master and apprentice arrived at the Great Hall of Orgrimmar, where countless orcs were serving food.

Orcs eat a rather rough diet, mostly meat, including various kinds of pork and roasted meat, as well as some alcohol.

At this moment, Kaido had regained his height of over seven meters and was sitting in the hall, holding a jug of strong liquor and drinking it wildly.

"Ha! Hehehe! This wine is quite good." Kaido said with a silly grin, his eyes glazed over and his cheeks flushed.

"Mr. Kaido, are you... are you drunk?" asked several orc warriors nearby.

The warlord and the king spoke with some disbelief.

Are you kidding me? They thought this incredibly powerful warrior had an inexhaustible capacity for alcohol! Turns out you got drunk after only a little bit.

"Hehehe! Idiot, of course you'll get drunk from drinking." Kaido said, holding a large wine jar.

Seeing this, Rhodes shook his head helplessly. Kaido really likes to drink, but to be honest, he's not a good drinker and gets drunk easily.

"Please excuse this idiot, everyone. Don't pay any attention to him," Yamato said, covering his face with his hands.

If Dad doesn't drink, he's quite domineering, but once he's drunk, he's a complete drunkard.

"Hehehe! You stupid, silly son, when are you going to give me a grandson?" Kaido said.

You stupid, silly son? You clearly gave birth to a daughter, okay?

A large group of orcs and trolls glanced at Yamato and shook their heads helplessly; he was truly drunk.

"You've come, my friend!" Thrall greeted Rhodes warmly as soon as he saw him arrive.

“Thank you for your warm hospitality, Great Chief,” Rhodes said.

“No need to be so polite. We orcs love making friends, especially friends who are strong in combat,” Thrall said.

He has a master-disciple relationship with the Horde's top warlock, so he has to maintain a good relationship with him and not let such a powerful fighter side with the Alliance.

To be honest, Thrall had wanted to repair the relationship between the Horde and the Alliance, but the Admiral incident and the previous incident where Twilight's Hammer tempted the Horde and the Alliance to war made him realize the reality.

Some things cannot be avoided or resolved simply by wishing them to. Thinking of this, Thrall glanced at Jaina, who was sitting to the side.

This girl is still so naive! Just like a little girl who hasn't grown up at all.

“Great Chieftain, this is the matter. My apprentice wishes to ask you to introduce him to Sylvanas, the Banshee Queen.” Retson stepped forward, bowed to Thrall, and spoke.

He held Thrall in the highest esteem, as the chieftain who had rescued the orcs. In fact, all the orcs in the Horde now worshipped Thrall.

“My friend, this is just a small matter. I will speak to the Banshee Queen,” Thrall nodded and said.

For him, it was just a matter of opening his mouth, but it earned him a favor, making it a very worthwhile deal.

“Thank you very much, Chief. If you ever need my help in the future, please don’t hesitate to ask,” Rhodes said.

For example, attack Tempest Keep, attack Black Temple, attack Hellfire Ramparts—Warchief, just name your name!
