First part of the Grand Line, Sandy Island, Arabasta Kingdom.
A World Governnt ship began to approach the city of Nanohana. Once the ship docked at the port, a group of officials imdiately ca to receive the n dressed in black who began to disembark, at the sa ti one of the officials imdiately sent several guards to inform King Nefertari Cobra.
Two hours later, King Cobra was sitting on the throne. Below the stage were the Commander of the Royal Guard, Igaram, and the two head guards.
At this ti, the sound of leather boots hitting the floor ca from outside, and then five expressionless n in black walked in, exuding an aura of indifference.
Seeing the appearance of these people, Igaram and the two guards showed cautious expressions.
"Greetings to King Nefertari Cobra. I am Warner, senior director of the Departnt of Historical Research and Historical Text Processing." The leader introduced himself in a serious manner.
This made King Cobra frown. 'Historical Text Processing Departnt?'
This imdiately reminded him of the information that only kings could know and that was passed down from generation to generation.
"We ca here this ti because we received reliable information that there is a Poneglyph hidden in the Tomb of the Kings of your country, and it also records the location of one of the three ancient weapons, 'Pluton'."
Senior Director Warner continued with cold words, as his gaze beca sharper, which alerted the Cobra King. Despite that, he remained calm.
"Where did your information co from? How can you be sure it is reliable? Is there any evidence? If so, can you show it to ?"
"This is confidential, no comnt. You just need to cooperate with us to let us enter the Arabasta Poneglyph Chamber under the Tomb of the Kings and verify."
King Cobra's expression beca serious, and he said in a deep voice: "Since you know about the Tomb of the Kings, you should understand its significance to Arabasta and the Nefertari family. I won't allow you to go and do whatever you want."
As soon as he finished speaking, Igaram and the two royal guards stepped forward, their gazes fixed on the five n in black in front of them, but the latter simply ignored them.
"We're not going to cause any trouble; we just want to see if there is a Poneglyph. If there is, we will take it with us. If not, we will not hold Arabasta responsible." Senior Director Warner said.
"I am saying that you should produce evidence. If there is really any evidence, then I can accompany you. If not, I'm sorry, but I can't allow it."
The Cobra King spoke firmly, but this also made the atmosphere between the two parties beco tense. Senior Director Warner was silent for a mont, and the corner of his mouth curled up into a sneer.
"Evidence?"
He raised his right hand and one of his n took a photograph out of his pocket, then threw it towards Igaram.
"What are you doing?!"
The two head guards reacted instantly, drawing their weapons. The King's soldiers also pointed their weapons at the n in black.
"Don't make any reckless moves!"
Igaram grabbed the photo, which arrived without much force, understanding that there was no intention to hurt. He quickly went up to the stand and handed her to King Cobra.
When King Cobra saw the photo, his pupils shrank, showing fury on his face. He slamd the throne angrily and stood up.
"How dare you barge into the sacred territory of the Tomb of the Kings?! Who gave you that right?"
In the photograph was the Poneglyph on display at the Arabasta Poneglyph Chamber.
"We are just going to get the evidence you just requested. Now, you have seen the evidence, haven't you?" Warner's senior director restrained his sneer and looked at the other party expressionlessly.
"Now, please make a decision, whether to cooperate with us in taking away the historical text, or to resist the ban of the World Governnt."
"Now, please make a decision: collaborate and allow us to take the Poneglyph or defy the World Governnt's ban."
Dead silence
After a long silence and internal conflict, the young Cobra King finally sighed and with a wave of his hand ordered: "Igaram, Vice Commander Ulan, take them to the Tomb of the Kings, but do not allow them to touch anything but the Poneglyph."
"King, that is the resting place of ancient kings!" The other Vice Commander of the Royal Guard intervened.
"All right, Vice Commander Nas." King Cobra waved his hand to signal the other party to stop talking.
"Then we retreat." Senior Director Warner nodded with so disappointnt, then turned around and left with the others.
"Your Majesty, why are you so afraid of them?" After everyone left, Vice Commander Nas, turned red angrily.
"We have 600,000 royal troops, millions of citizens willing to fight for the kingdom and Vice Commander Ulan and . Even if we lack ships to face them at sea, we should be more than enough to prevent the World Governnt's attack."
Hearing this, King Cobra would have thought it was reasonable before. After all, Arabasta's national strength is the undisputed number one among all the affiliated nations. But ever since he watched the live broadcast of the 'One Piece Great Battle', he now looked at the Vice Commander with confusion.
"General Nas, didn't you watch the live broadcast of the world a few days ago?"
"If you are talking about the great treasure of the Pirate King, I really don't pay attention to it, nor am I interested in paying attention to it. It is better to train the troops or exercise your own strength." Vice Commander Nas replied solemnly.
King Cobra was suddenly speechless. He also realized that he had a hard ti explaining how powerful navy admirals were. Even if he made so general remarks, Nas would probably not believe it.
He thought for a while and prepared to talk about it from another angle.
"Vice Commander Nas, if we completely break with the World Governnt, the Navy will launch a full-scale attack. Even if our royal troops can resist, the peace of our people will be affected."
"Now they live in harmony, why risk everything for a stone that we don't understand and plunge the nation into chaos?"
King Kobra's earnest words rippled through the entire hall and reached the ears of every king's army soldier, making their resolute expressions slightly moved.
"As a descendant of the Nefertari family, it is indeed my incompetence not to be able to protect the Poneglyph passed down by my ancestors and allow outsiders to enter the Tomb of the Kings without authorization and disturb the rest of the ancient Kings."
"But as King of Arabasta, my first responsibility is to ensure the peace and stability of the kingdom. We should not risk everything for a stone."
Every word of the young king was firm and direct.
Such a determined and wise king, he hugged his princess and cried loudly as soon as he returned to the bedroom, with tears pouring out of his eyes like water.
However, this very determined king, once in his bedroom, embraced his Queen and cried bitterly, tears that flowed like water.
"Titi, I have disappointed the ancient Kings..." He sobbed.
...
September 12, 1498.
The Levely was still three days away, but near Mary Geoise the royal ships from all over the world had already arrived.
This day is destined to be recorded in history in the future.
Just yesterday, the biochemical safety station built by the Construction Departnt and the Biochemical Research Institute in the RL1556 area of Red Earth Continent was officially completed.
At the core of the security station, Caesar Clown led six investigators and six mbers of CP7. All of them were wearing protective suits of a striking light-yellow color, sowhat bulky.
On the shelves around them, there are various types of Den Den Mushi and professional equipnt for air detection. Behind them is a silver-white electrical closed gate.
At the sa ti, there are four surveillance Den Den Mushi placed in the corners of the ceiling. They transmit images in real ti without blind spots to the Cipher Pol headquarters located in the RL1999 area, as well as to the Room of the Authority where the Five Elders are located and to Imu's tree house.
Caesar was excited, so much so that he trembled a little, although he maintained a hint of skepticism. His yellowish-brown pupils focused intently on the Energy Gate less than twenty ters in front of him, shining with starbursts and a rim of blue light that clung to the ground.
Caesar never imagined that one of the biochemical safety suits he had brought would end up being put on himself, much less that he would put it on voluntarily. All of this was because of this "door" in front of him.
He and other researchers had been briefed on the basic situation a few days ago.
It is said that behind this 'gate' there is another world, and their mission is to test if the air there is safe and, in the process, test if the Den Den Mushi can still be used as usual.
Honestly, his first reaction was to think it was a fake.
But as the biological and chemical security station was gradually completed, and he found a large group of soldiers ard with automatic rifles and even driving tanks, and they were very serious about building defenses outside, he beca a little convinced.
"Let see, is this a conspiracy or is it true?" Caesar in the biochemical suit stretched out his tongue nervously and licked his dry lips.
The next mont, the countless starlights on the 'gate' began to rotate, spinning faster and faster, almost connecting into circular lines, and finally disappeared before the eyes, revealing a landscape of blue sky, white clouds, green mountains and grassland.
'Soone is controlling this thing!' This was the first key point that Caesar noticed at this mont.
"So there is another world inside?" A researcher pointed at the Dinsional Gate and asked hesitantly. Although he was ntally prepared, it was still a bit unbelievable when it actually appeared in front of his eyes.
"Please ask the security personnel to enter Dinsional Gate No. 1."
The six CP7 mbers wearing protective suits looked at each other, then divided into two parts, one in front and one behind, and passed through the Dinsional Gate into another world.
The small Dinsional Gate is two ters wide, which is quite spacious for them. The first three people to enter also have a Den Den Mushi in their hands.
"Please have the research personnel pass through Dinsional Gate No. 1." The cold voice sounded from the speakers on the wall.
"Finally it's our turn." Caesar saw that the six people in front of him had actually entered the interior of the Dinsional Gate, and he quickly followed with the six researchers with excitent on his face.
anwhile, at the Cipher Pol headquarters, Ju Peter was standing in the command center, watching the various images on the big screen with the logistics staff.
Suddenly, three screens went black.
Everyone's expressions beca serious when they saw this scene, and Ju Peter frowned, because this ant that the signal from the Den Den Mushi could not be transmitted through the Dinsional Gate.
"We have a problem." One of the remaining Five Elders who were in the Room of the Authority murmured.
Warcury crossed his hands and said in a deep voice: "It seems that a dedicated person is needed to deliver the information."
"But in this way, we can't see the real-ti picture of the other world." Nusjuro said while sighing.
At this mont, a man wearing the protective suit walked out of the Dinsional Gate. He then said to the Den Den Mushi in his hand: "Report, according to the test, the Den Den Mushi can be used normally on the other side. The air composition detection mission is in progress."
Ju Peter nodded and said softly: "In other words, the signal obstruction is only in that Dinsional Gate? Then try to connect the two ends directly."
...
On the other side.
Caesar was more intrigued by the environnt around him than by the hustle and bustle around him. However, sothing seed strange. Everything was too normal!
"Is this really another world? No matter how you look at it, it's just ordinary mountains, ordinary grass, ordinary sky, and ordinary sea."
Caesar looked at the sea in the distance with disappointnt, and then walked to the researcher who was operating the detection equipnt. Without asking anything, he lowered his head and reviewed the data himself.
"Oxygen levels are normal, and the composition of the air is similar. There are no unknown substances. It seems we don't need these protective suits." He reflected. Despite that, he did not dare to take it off and breathe deeply the air of this place.
"Hey, the compass can be used here, and it is very stable, which ans there is no problem with the magnetism!" Another researcher nearby said, looking at the ordinary compass in his hand.
When Caesar heard this, he thought to himself that even if this was not another world, it should not be an island on the Grand Line, but sowhere in the four seas.
Soon, the CP7 mber who had returned to report the situation had returned holding a Den Den Mushi with a black cable attached, and this ti, communication with the Cipher Pol headquarters on the other end was not cut off.
"We have achieved it!"
Ju Peter in the control room, the remaining Five Elders in the Room of the Authority, and even Imu in his tree house, were excited to see a clear image on the screen, accompanied by sounds of wind, waves, and insect sounds.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, I really didn't expect that the first person to enter the new world would be this kid Caesar." Imu sat on the sofa and chuckled.
Although strictly speaking, Caesar was not the first person to enter the Dinsional Gate, but Imu only knew him, the others were unknown to him.
"Report, there is no problem with the air here. It is recomnded to try taking off the protective clothing for testing, and further test the soil, trees, seawater, and collect plant and biological samples!"
"Approved."
