Unfortunately, after fourteen years of hardship, just as the sea train finally roared into the ocean, bringing new life and hope to Water Seven, Spandam, the then-commander of CP5, became enraged after failing to obtain the blueprints for "Pluto" and plotted to frame Tom.
In the end, to protect his disciple, Tom resolutely took on the false accusation and willingly faced death.
The life of a great shipwright who made a tremendous contribution to Water Seven has come to an end.
As the sea train moved forward, darkness gradually fell.
The highest point in Water City.
Beneath the enormous fountain, which is usually deserted, two dark figures shrouded in cloaks hide.
It was Enel and Violet who had infiltrated ahead of time.
Enel casually sat cross-legged on the floor, while Violet raised her hands in an OK gesture and used her X-ray vision to observe every corner of Asbaghu's office.
"Snap, snap!"
A crisp, continuous chewing sound rang out incongruously from the side.
At Enel's feet were a dozen or so apple cores that had been gnawed clean, and there was even a small pile in his arms.
"Hey, could you stop for a second?"
Violet finally couldn't take it anymore and lowered her hand, turning her head away somewhat angrily. "That sound is so distracting!"
She was speechless.
This is the first time I've ever seen someone who loves apples so much.
How barren is the Sky Island? Does it not even have any good fruit?
Enel didn't even bother to lift his eyelids, only glancing at Violet casually before focusing on the plump apple in his hand, as if it were the only treasure in the world.
Ever since he accidentally ate an apple on a pirate ship that crashed into the sky island, he has fallen in love with this unique fruit.
If Kane hadn't brought him down, he would have wanted to plant a batch of apple trees in Apayado himself.
However, coming to Qinghai seems like a good option.
At least you don't have to worry about growing it, and you can enjoy this delicious food anytime, anywhere.
Violet sighed helplessly, resisting the urge to snatch the apple and throw it away. She focused her attention again and scanned Aspagu's office once more, but still found nothing.
"No, we can't keep going like this."
Violet frowned: "I checked his office and home at least five or six times, but I didn't see a trace of the design drawings. Instead, I found a lot of useless documents and ordinary items."
"Then let's just take action, grab him and ask him, we'll know the answer."
Enel took a big bite of the apple and made a vague suggestion.
"That's the only way." Violet pondered for a moment, then decided to proceed with the final plan.
Although this increases the risk of exposure, there seems to be no better option when there are no clues.
However, there was one obvious obstacle—the secretary named Kalifa.
She had been ordered to stay by Asbagu's side at all times.
Under Enel's surveillance network, which covers the entire island, Lucci and Kaku's supposedly private conversation had already been overheard by the two of them.
"Thousand-Mile Eyes" Violet + "Wind-Following Ears" Enel = Full Map Overload.
Violet pursed her lips: "Let's wait until it's late at night before we make our move. I refuse to believe that Kalifa will sleep with him."
There were no women's items in Aspargu's house.
Enel gave her a strange look, his tone tinged with confusion: "Is that not allowed? Kane's secretary sleeps with him, doesn't she?"
Upon hearing this, Violet's pretty face instantly flushed red, and she retorted somewhat shyly and angrily, "That's different! They're a couple."
“Fine.” Enel shrugged indifferently.
He was not interested in these matters between men and women.
He'd be better off eating two more apples than wasting that time.
Click, click.
The annoying chewing sounds started again.
Late at night.
Carrera Corporation, inside the boss's office.
Aspagu put down his pen, rubbed his slightly tired brow, and neatly arranged the last signed document.
He looked up apologetically at his secretary who was waiting quietly to the side: "I'm sorry, Kalifa, for making you work overtime with me until so late. Now that the work is finished, you can go back and rest."
Kalifa elegantly pushed up her gold-rimmed glasses, a charming smile appearing on her face that was inconsistent with her usual capable image: "It's just my duty, nothing to do with hardship."
She subtly turned slightly to the side, allowing the soft office lighting to better accentuate her graceful figure, especially her long, slender legs encased in her business suit.
"Please take a good rest. If you need anything, just call me anytime. I'll be there whenever you need me."
Kalifa spoke suggestively.
She had originally crafted a persona of a cold and aloof secretary, but unfortunately, Lucci gave her a death order to keep a close eye on Asbaghu, so she had no choice but to comply.
Unexpectedly, Aspagu seemed oblivious to the vibrant scene before him, instead frowning and saying, "No need. Your time after get off work is your own. Go and enjoy your private time."
"Yes, boss. I'll take my leave now."
Kalifa's smile froze for a moment, and she replied dryly, doubting her own charm for the first time.
She bowed slightly, turned and left the office.
It seems we have no choice but to proceed with Plan B.
Kalifa didn't actually leave. She quietly hid in a corner outside the office, where she could peek at the door, ready to keep watch all night and make sure Asbaghu didn't get out of her control.
But to her surprise, only one minute had passed after the door closed.
A barely perceptible electric current flashed through the office.
The next second, Enel appeared in front of Asborg's desk without warning.
Chapter 154 Hades blueprints, got! Enel starts patching!
"you……"
Seeing the uninvited guest appear out of nowhere like a ghost, Aspagu was startled and instinctively cried out in alarm.
However, before he could finish the word, a strong numbing sensation swept over his entire body, freezing him in place and rendering him unable to utter a sound.
Enel slowly retracted his index finger without making a sound. A tiny arc of electricity flickered a few times at his fingertip before disappearing.
Seeing that he had completely controlled the situation, Enel didn't hesitate at all. He grabbed Asborg by the collar and lifted him up to the window like a puppet.
Aspagu could barely lift his heavy eyelids. Through the glass, he saw a dark figure shrouded in a large cloak and wearing a faceless mask standing by the window of the office building across the street.
The dark figure was staring intently in that direction with a peculiar and focused posture.
"You...you all..."
Aspagu, struggling against the numbness, tried to force out a question through gritted teeth.
Enel showed no interest in answering the other's question. His indifferent, emotionless voice rang out: "Where are the blueprints for Hades?"
what! !
How did they know that I had the blueprints for Hades?
Iceberg's eyes widened suddenly, his pupils contracting in extreme shock. A storm raged through his mind, countless thoughts churning wildly.
This is a secret that he and his teacher Tom guarded their whole lives!
Before he could even organize his thoughts for any explanation, he saw the cloaked figure opposite him lower his hands and nod firmly in his direction.
Then, to his astonishment, the cloaked figure beside him suddenly released his grip on his collar and uttered a statement that left him completely bewildered.
"We'll take the blueprints."
what?
I haven't even said anything yet!
Aspagu was completely bewildered.
Enel had already turned around and was about to leave on his own.
But just before leaving, he seemed to suddenly remember something, stopped, and turned his head: "Oh, right. Someone asked me to pass on a message to you: your house is haunted, and there's more than one ghost."
"For your own life's sake, you'd better pretend that everything that just happened never happened."
Before he could finish speaking, Enel's figure had already transformed into a barely perceptible bolt of lightning, vanishing instantly as if it had merged into the air.
Meanwhile, the dark figure opposite also silently disappeared into the shadows of the building.
From the moment they appeared to the moment they left, the entire process took no more than two minutes.
Silence returned to the office, as if everything that had just happened was an illusion.
But the lingering numbness in his body reminded Aspagu that what had just happened was real.
He stood frozen in place, his expression shifting between light and dark, his mood gloomy.
He's not a fool.
Once a secret is known to a second person, it is no longer a secret.
The cloaked man's meaning couldn't be clearer.
Besides the group of mysterious people just now, there is another group secretly spying on the Hades blueprints!
Although it's unclear how the cloaked figure knew the location of the blueprints, if they truly have succeeded...
Therefore, in order to keep those unsuspecting individuals in the shadows in check, the only thing he could do was to act exactly as usual.
Only by ascertaining that the design blueprints are still safely hidden somewhere can he secure a chance of survival.
In an ideal scenario, another group of people might not even be able to be sure whether they actually possess the blueprints for Pluto.
Otherwise, they would have already taken action to interrogate them.
Thinking of this, Aspagu took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the fear and confusion in his heart, and moved his body, which was gradually regaining consciousness.
