Reincarnated into the world of One Piece, in a land of giants with open eyes?!

Chapter 139, Section 138: Three Phone Calls

The Den Den Mushi, mimicking Lingling's actions, nodded: "That giant umbrella-shaped mushroom came down and said it wanted to see you, and then nothing more."

Lingling said seriously, "Just stand there straight in the square."

"Newgate, York, and Brooke have all arrived. Taylor has already activated the fallout plan and is evacuating people."

"Gails and Stussy are trying to communicate with this thing right now, but the giant umbrella mushroom is completely ignoring them."

"That so-called saint who turned into a giant spider as a mount didn't say a word. What a bunch of rude guys."

The relatively peaceful situation on Apayado did not allow Oro to completely relax.

Im said he wanted to see him?

Why?

Why would the Lord of the Void Throne, who has never made a public appearance in eight hundred years, suddenly leave Mary Geoise and come to the heart of the Kingdom of Jaya, specifically requesting to see him?

Countless questions swirled in Auro's mind, but he didn't have time to think about them now.

"Okay, Lingling, listen carefully."

Oro quickened his pace: "Get Gails and Stussy away from that black guy immediately!"

"Tell everyone to stay away from that thing!"

"If you make a move, you and Newgate should be careful not to let this guy get close."

"Don't hang up, keep in touch, I'll be right back!"

"Okay!" Lingling responded loudly.

Oro handed the Den Den Mushi to Osa, then closed his eyes and focused all his attention on controlling the Golden Flight.

The Yoda Perfume increased its speed again, drawing a golden trail in the air, tearing through the clouds, and speeding towards the Sky Island.

Osa held the Den Den Mushi, with Shakky and Toma standing on either side of her.

The three girls remained silent, knowing that the most important thing now was to keep quiet and let Oro concentrate.

But this quiet period did not last long.

"Brub — Brub — Brub —"

The sound of a Den Den Mushi (snail phone) came from the direction of the bedroom again.

Oro opened his eyes, his brows furrowing.

The Yoda Perfume has a complete communication system, but the voice that is ringing out now comes from the row of encrypted Den Den Mushi on the bedroom table, which are used for emergency contact with various agencies of the United Kingdom.

Who would call at a time like this?

Oro nodded slightly to Xia Qi, who immediately understood and stepped forward to answer the phone.

"Orikum!"

The moment you answer, without even asking who it is, that familiar voice, always with a condescending tone, roars out through the Den Den Mushi's imitation.

He is the financial god of war, Saint Nusjuro.

"I warn you not to harm your noble body! Otherwise, the whole world will be dragged down with you!"

This made Oro frown even more deeply.

This is utterly upside down!

Who exactly knocked on whose door?

Im suddenly appeared in Apayado, and now the Five Elders are calling to warn him not to move?

Oro's mood was already at its lowest point because of Im's sudden appearance, and this only made it worse.

He retorted without hesitation: "I will never be the one to fire the first shot!"

"Go ask your master! Ask him what this guy is up to!"

"Damn it! You bastard—beep beep—"

At Oro's prompting, Xia Qi hung up the phone.

Communication was interrupted, but the atmosphere in the bedroom grew even more somber.

Oro stared at the now-quiet Den Den Mushi, his brow furrowing deeper and deeper.

Judging from Nusjuro Saint's reaction, he seemed very anxious, even somewhat panicked?

This is not normal.

It seems that Im's sudden rise to power brought him to Apayado?

Aside from Saturn, which was used as a mount, the other five elders also seemed caught off guard and were quite anxious.

Damn it! What's this thing that's been holed up for 800 years doing all of a sudden?!

"Brubru—Brub—"

Just then, another Den Den Mushi rang.

Oro turned his head sharply. This time, it wasn't an encrypted private line ringing, but an anonymous Den Den Mushi (snail phone) used to contact certain shady characters.

Who would call this number at a time like this?

"Toma."

Oro spoke, his voice still relatively calm: "Use the third Den Den Mushi on your left to call the Kingdom Academy of Sciences and have them trace the source of the signal from the Den Den Mushi that made the call."

"Shakky, wait until Thomas gets through on the phone before answering this call."

"Understood." Shakky and Thomas nodded at the same time.

A moment later, Thomas answered the phone, said a few words, and then made a gesture. Shakky then answered the phone as well.

"Hey! Golden Emperor! It's me, John."

Oro really didn't expect that the third caller would be this guy.

Oro wanted Shaki to hang up the phone right away; he didn't have the energy to deal with these trivial matters.

Then John said, "Lox is looking for me."

"Tell me to find him in a place called God Valley in the Western Sea. I said, 'Does our previous information exchange agreement still stand?'"

Rocks?

Auro's eyes held a mixture of emotions.

At the same time that Im suddenly descended upon Apayado, Rox was also making moves in God Valley?

"Hey! Golden Emperor! Don't stay silent! The price is negotiable!"

John urged him on the phone, his tone a little urgent.

"Intelligence fees remain the same."

Oro coldly replied, "Tell me everything you know."

"readily!"

John's voice immediately brightened: "It's like this, about two hours ago, I received a call from Rocks via Den Den Mushi. To be honest, I was really startled—"

"Get to the point," Oro interrupted him.

"Okay, okay, the important thing is that Rocks asked me to go to God Valley to see him, saying that he has a big business deal to discuss."

"I asked him what kind of business he was in, but he wouldn't say. He just said he'd find out when he got there."

"He specifically emphasized that I should go alone and not bring any subordinates."

John paused, then lowered his voice: "Golden Emperor, do you think this might be a trap?"

"That guy, Rocks, wasn't always this mysterious."

"How did you reply?" Oro asked.

"I told him I needed to think about it and we agreed to contact each other again tomorrow."

John said, "Then I called you right away. So, how much is this intelligence worth?"

Oro fell into deep thought.

Two hours ago, Rocks contacted John from the Valley of God.

Not long after, Im left Mary Geoise and descended upon Apayado in person.

Im, Rocks, God Valley —

The clues are coming together, and it seems that it has been determined that the devil is behind it all.

"Golden Emperor? Don't stay silent again!"

John's voice pulled Oro back to reality.

"I will have the intelligence fee paid as usual."

Oro said, "Also, I want you to accept Lox's invitation."

"What?!"

John on the other end of the phone was stunned: "You want me to go?"

"Don't mess around. Lox won't suddenly ask me to go to him for no reason. There must be something really complicated going on!"

"Whoever wants to go can go, I'm not going!"

"Go, and write down everything you see and hear."

Oro said firmly, "The reward will be tripled."

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone.

Five times.

John tried to bargain.

"make a deal."

Oro replied without hesitation, "But I need real-time intelligence. I'll have someone send you a special Den Den Mushi to maintain constant communication."

O

"Tsk, the price is too low."

John muttered something, but his tone revealed satisfaction: "Alright, for Bailey's sake."

"But let me make this clear: if things go wrong, I'll run away immediately. I'm not going to risk my life for your information."

Auro, too lazy to say anything more, simply gestured for Shaki to hang up the phone.

Communication is interrupted.

The bedroom fell silent again.

Auro looked out the window at the distant horizon. The Yoda Perfume was still flying at an astonishing speed, and the sea below had turned into a blurry blue patch.

But his mind was no longer entirely on the journey.

Im, the Demon —
