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

However, the sealing array Illidan inscribed, some sealing artifacts, and the entire underground space are still well preserved.

"I understand, Master. We will help you complete this task. We hope you will keep your promise and allow us to regain our former glory and return to our original state," Kargath Bladefist nodded and said.

“You won’t have to wait long for this day. You need to hurry up and rebuild the Dark Portal, as well as repair your Hellfire Citadel. The Forsaken will help you with the Dark Portal, but you’ll have to repair the Hellfire Citadel yourselves,” Rhodes said.

Kargath Bladefist, along with a large group of orc warlords, orc generals, high warlocks, and the like, all nodded in agreement.

Meanwhile, Sylvanas arrived among the Forsaken, gave some instructions, and made an announcement to all the Forsaken.

Due to some unforeseen events, the dreadlord Varimathras died a heroic death in Outland, and from then on, Undercity's second-in-command was gone.

“What amazing technology. Mr. Rhodes, do you have any other methods for building floating cities?” The blood elf mage Lucius asked as he approached.

This is about building a floating city! If they get this technology, they can turn Silvermoon City into a huge floating city, just like Dalaran. It can both protect the remaining blood elves and form a strategic deterrent.

It's quite ridiculous, really. Humans' magical abilities were taught to them by the blood elves, but over time, humans have shown a tendency to surpass their teachers.

Many young blood elf mages have even chosen to stay in Dara instead of returning to Silvermoon City, and they still retain the title of high elf.

Dalaran gradually developed into an organization even more powerful than Silvermoon City, where human mages who had cultivated for a dozen years could rival blood elf mages who had cultivated for hundreds of years.

Coupled with the terrifying reproductive capacity of humans, the blood elves were indeed at a significant disadvantage.

"Well, it's my personal special ability, and I'm afraid I can't help you with that," Rhodes said.

Unless he and Kaido remain stationed somewhere, the floating city must descend; it cannot float permanently.

“Mr. Rhodes! In fact, Silvermoon City would also very much like to welcome you. I think Regent Lord Lor'themar would be very pleased to see you,” said the blood elf mage Lucius.

In the eyes of the blood elf mage, Rhodes must have mastered some unknown technology, but he was not on a deep enough level with the blood elf race and was unwilling to share it with them.

“I will definitely visit Silvermoon City when I have the chance,” Rhodes said.

After all, once the Dark Portal is truly opened, you're all going to fight Kael'thas together, so I have to at least meet your Regent, Achille!

"We in Silvermoon City will certainly give you a very warm welcome. The young women of the Blood Elf race are all great beauties! They are very skilled in all kinds of dances, and you can go and enjoy them," the Blood Elf mage said with a smile.

Holy crap, are you trying to seduce me?

Using the beautiful blood elves of Silvermoon City as an example, it must be said that as the true gathering place of the blood elf race, the female blood elves there are absolutely the best.

And to be honest, blood elf women are much more open-minded than human women. The blood elves who followed Illidan, even in the harsh environment of Outland, did not forget to enjoy themselves and built a magical land that countless adventurers dream of, a land of gold and adventure that even male players long for.

The Hall of Pleasure, a playground exclusively for Blood Elves.

I really want to take a trip to the Hall of Pleasure in the Dark Temple!

Having traveled to the world of Azeroth, I must fulfill my dream from back then. I'm going to grind through three nights straight in the Temple of Joy.

It's decided. When we conquer the Dark Temple, we must preserve this place as well. I will use love to redeem the banshees, elves, succubi, and so on inside.

"Rhodes! What are you discussing?" Sylvanas's voice suddenly came from behind.

“Let’s discuss it further. I’ll be visiting Silvermoon City in a while,” Rhodes said, turning to the Queen with a smile.

“Your Majesty, Queen of the Banshees, I would like to invite Mr. Rhodes to Silvermoon City in the future to meet the Regent, and perhaps even to meet His Highness the Prince upon his return,” Lucius said.

“I can go with Rhodes then,” Sylvanas said.

If this kid goes alone, those blood elf mages and priests could devour him completely.

“Ahem! I’m truly sorry, Banshee Queen. While Silvermoon City warmly welcomes you, some ordinary blood elf citizens are very resistant to the undead because of the last Scourge invasion,” Lucius said.

The literal meaning is: Your Majesty, we in Silvermoon City welcome you very much and respect you very much, but ordinary people cannot accept you.

Some things are just beyond our control.

"Don't worry! I won't go there like that, right, Rhodes?" Sylvanas said.

Returning to her former hometown in this manner was something even she herself felt ashamed of.

“Of course! I will definitely not let you down, Sylvanas. You have helped me so much, I will definitely make sure you get what you want,” Rhodes said.

Hearing this, Sylvanas smiled with satisfaction, then pulled Rhodes away.

So, does he have some secret deal with the former wandering knight general, now the Banshee Queen?

Who exactly is this Mr. Rhodes?!

“Be careful, those female blood elves can devour you completely,” Sylvanas said.

"Hahaha! What? Are you jealous? I thought you weren't feeling that way right now!" Rod said.

Although something happened between me and the Queen, you're dreaming if you think you can control my private life. I won't be controlled by you.

“Whatever you say! When shall we go to your world? I’m getting a little impatient,” Sylvanas said.

Given your character and mental fortitude, you shouldn't be fooled by those blood elves and mages. After all, you're not some innocent young boy.

After all, not everyone has the courage to attack someone they just met. But once I'm resurrected, kid, I'll show you what it means to be the most beautiful woman among the high elves.

(In the world of Azeroth, many female blood elves consider themselves the most beautiful woman in their race.)

"About three days from now! You also need to make some arrangements. We'll be staying there for a while. First, we need to build a Dark Gate, then we need to participate in a war, and then we need to find a certain being to help you get the Yomi Yomi no Mi (Fruit of the Underworld) out of you," Rhodes said.

There's a lot to do since I returned to the pirate world: establishing the Dark Gate, participating in the Marineford War, and two other things to do: collecting Whitebeard's body and getting Blackbeard to help restore the Yomi Yomi no Mi (Revive-Revive Fruit).

However, given Kaido's current level of combat power, these things are nothing. It wouldn't be too slow for him to mobilize the entire Wano Country to build the Dark Gate.

“I understand. I’ll make arrangements for the Forsaken in the next few days, at least to help them get along well with these fel orcs,” Sylvanas said.

Her departure must be kept strictly secret, and even some lower-ranking Forsaken must not know. Otherwise, if the Scarlet Crusade finds out that the Forsaken Queen has left, they will definitely be eager to make a move.

Over the next few days, Sylvanas settled the orcs brought by Rhodes and the others, then repaired the binding magic circle and imprisoned a certain abyss lord inside.

Chapter 72 Visitors from Dalaran, A New Concept of Floating Cities

Sylvanas has been having a lot of headaches these past few days. A few days ago, Hellfire Citadel suddenly appeared above Undercity. Although it landed very quickly, it still attracted the attention of other factions.

First, the tribe sent someone to inquire. After learning that it was Rhodes and Kaido who did it, Thrall didn't say much. He simply said that Rhodes, Kaido, and the others would always be friends of the tribe, and they were always welcome to visit Orgrimmar.

The blood elves in Silvermoon City were very interested in this floating city, even though Rhodes had explained that it was just an application of his own ability and could not make a city a permanent floating city.

But clearly, some people don't think so. The Archmage of Theramore, Jaina, and a mage from Dalaran came to Undercity and expressed their desire to meet with Rhodes.

"So? Do you want to see them? If not, I'll send them away," Sylvanas asked.

Despite their efforts to remain discreet, news of the floating city still leaked out. Dala Ran's attitude was relatively good; this time, instead of sending anyone to sneak in, he openly came to inquire.

Of course, the main reason for this is that Jaina has witnessed the power displayed by Rhodes and Kaido.

Jaina stopped the Dalaran mage from making a secret investigation and instead chose to visit him in person.

However, this also gave Rhodes a headache. After all, they only had one more day before they were to set off for the pirate world.

And those orcs are building the Dark Portal! It wouldn't be good if those Dalaran mages saw it.

“We must keep our construction of the Dark Portal a secret,” Rhodes said.

Building the Dark Portal is crucial for Rhodes to connect the two worlds and completely integrate the world of One Piece and the world of Azeroth, so it absolutely cannot be lost.

"I will instruct my men to build the Dark Gate underground, ensuring the most secure protection possible."

If possible, I will have a blood elf mage come over to provide some cover.

"It won't be so easy for the mages of Dalaran to infiltrate, and we Forsaken are not to be trifled with either," Sylvanas said.

“Let’s go see this Dalaran mage first! Let’s find a way to get rid of him and at least buy some time. Time is what I need most right now,” Rhodes said.

“Hmm! The Dalaran mage who came this time is a bit special; he has a little bit of a connection to me,” Sylvanas said.

He's related to Sylvanas, and he's a Dalaran mage. Could he be your brother-in-law?

Archmage Rhonin! Vereesa, Windrunner's husband, the youngest and most rosy-cheeked of the three Windrunner sisters.

What a pity! Luo Ning snatched this little pink flower.

“Let’s go! Let’s go and meet this mage from Dalaran,” Rhodes said.

Sylvanas nodded and followed Rhodes as the two arrived at the Undercity's reception hall.

"We meet again, Mr. Rhodes." As soon as they met, the human mage Jaina stood up and waved to Rhodes.

“It’s only been a little over ten days since we last met, Mage Jaina. Haven’t you returned to Theramore?” Rhodes asked.

Last time we were in Orgrimmar, this girl actually wanted to come to Undercity with me, but I decisively refused.

Unexpectedly, they came with the mages of Dalaran again this time.

“Hahaha! Theramore doesn’t need me for the time being; you’ve been making quite a stir lately,” Jaina said.

The appearance of a giant floating city is no joke; it's a strategic-level weapon.

Furthermore, she also reported the matter concerning Kaido and Rod to the Human Alliance, since Rod was, in a sense, a citizen of the Alliance.

That's right, they are ordinary citizens from the Alliance side, after all, they live in the Stormwind Kingdom's territory, in the Westfall.

The league's top brass never dreamed that they had such a master hidden on their side.

“On behalf of Dalaran, I extend my greetings to you, Mr. Rhodes. I am Rhonin, a mage and one of the members of the Council of Six of Dalaran.” A middle-aged man dressed in a violet robe and holding a staff bowed to Rhodes and began to speak.

"Greetings, Archmage Rhonin. I have long admired your name. I have heard so much about your rescue of the Red Dragon Queen and your thwarting of Deathwing's plot," Rhodes said with a slight nod and a smile.

"That's all in the past. I just happened to be lucky. I had a lot of help from my teacher back then," Luo Ning said with a smile.

"I'll get straight to the point, you two. What brings you to Undercity this time?" Rhodes asked.

“Mr. Rhodes is certainly direct. Well then, I’ll be frank with you too. Mr. Rhodes, do you know of any method for creating a new type of floating city?” Rhodes asked.

The sudden appearance and subsequent landing of the giant floating city startled the Alliance.

It's important to know that, currently in the world of Azeroth, excluding the Scourge, there is only one giant floating city: Dalaran.

Although Dalaran is nominally a neutral organization, everyone knows that Dalaran leans heavily towards the Alliance.

After all, the highest leaders, the Council of Six, are mostly human. Seventy percent of the city's residents are human, twenty percent are high elves, and one-tenth are dwarves.

But now, a thing resembling a giant floating city has suddenly appeared in the Horde, especially in Undercity, which has naturally attracted the Alliance's attention.

If a floating fortress suddenly appeared in the Horde at this time, it would have a significant impact on the Alliance.

"Well, this is just a special ability of my father-in-law and me, and it can't be used for a long time." Rhodes briefly explained his and Kaido's Flame Cloud ability.

Jaina should have already passed on Kaido's and her own information to the Alliance, so there's no need to hide it.

Moreover, it's best not to offend Dalaran if possible; at least for now, Rhodes doesn't want to offend Dalaran.
