276, Welcome to the Queen Bee.

Mirror Spirit stood atop the tumultuous sea, like a prince of the Sea Race, even performing an Empire salute, smiling as he said, "Welcome to the Queen Bee!"

Charles, faced with Mirror Spirit's greeting, couldn't help but ask, "How did you become so smart?"

Mirror Spirit smiled elegantly and said, "It's because your strength has increased."

Charles glanced at the surging seas around him, suddenly realizing something. The mirror in the Captain's Cabin could only reflect the cabin itself, but the portholes had experienced all the oceans the Queen Bee had sailed through. It was the largest mirror world he had ever seen, truly boundless.

Of course, Mirror Spirit wasn't telling the truth.

Charles could even sense an odd aura on this Mirror Spirit that didn't belong to the Fanga Clan, most likely a mysterious force from the Queen Bee was affecting it, leading to changes he couldn't have anticipated.

Charles drew his Blood Rose.
