"How's it going?"
The World Government warship that entered the area soon noticed the unusual weather.
Although encountering strange weather is common on the Grand Line, this particular celestial phenomenon, coupled with the presence of Blood Emperor Gnar, made everyone on the World Government warship uneasy.
Looking up, the thick dark clouds seemed almost tangible, hovering ominously above their heads.
A CP agent on the ship suddenly exclaimed,
"Sir, Admiral Zephyr, we've detected Blood Emperor Gnar's pirate group. They've stopped!"
"What!?"
Everyone turned in the direction indicated by the agent. Sure enough, on the sea covered with dark clouds, Gnar's pirate ship was anchored.
The woman in the fox mask said softly,
"Admiral Zephyr, it seems that this man is as prideful as the intelligence suggested. He didn't flee when he saw the World Government's warship. Could he be waiting for us?"
Zephyr frowned slightly, looking around at the dark clouds and the night-like world around them. He replied in a deep voice,
"If this had happened three months ago, I might have thought the same. But now, don't underestimate this kid... If I'm right, what we have above us is the Jet Cloud."
The woman in the fox mask nodded and said,
"Yes, according to our intelligence, this kind of abnormal celestial phenomenon often occurs near Gaya Island. It is accompanied by a severe natural disaster..."
"Natural disaster!?"
Ain's interest was piqued.
The woman in the fox mask explained,
"That's right, Miss Ain. It's a massive natural disaster known as the sky current. There is a vast cave beneath us, deeper than the seabed. Due to the alternation of hot and cold, the cave fills with hot steam. When the steam accumulates enough, it erupts, sending the sea below into the sky. That's why it's called the sky current. Normally, ships should avoid this. It's a huge disaster. But why would this man stay here, as if he's just waiting..."
The fox-masked woman looked at Zephyr and asked,
"Should we move closer, Admiral Zephyr? If we're unlucky, we might also be affected by the sky current, which could destroy the ship and cause casualties. After all, the power of the sky current is beyond what a warship can handle."
"Let the warships stay at a safe distance and avoid this area. We'll approach alone."
Zephyr was unwilling to risk innocent lives.
"I agree!"
After Zephyr's decision, he and the woman in the fox mask leaped from the ship, stepping through the air and heading directly toward Gnar's pirate ship. Seeing this, Ain tightened her grip on her long knife and followed.
"Bang..."
Without encountering any obstacles, Zephyr and the woman in the fox mask descended from the sky and landed on the deck of Gnar's ship, followed closely by Ain.
The arrival of the three did not cause a stir. Instead, Gnar stood on the deck as if he had been expecting them.
"We meet again, Admiral Zephyr!"
Gnar greeted warmly and then winked at Ain.
"And Miss Ain, did you miss me?"
Robin and Zala, observing Ain's beautiful appearance, knew immediately that Gnar had made another romantic advance. The two, familiar with Gnar's playboy nature, exchanged knowing glances.
Ain's face tightened, and she said angrily,
"I just want to kill you!"
She drew her long knife, ready to attack, but Zephyr stopped her.
"Calm down, Ain!"
Reluctantly, Ain sheathed her knife.
Gnar then turned his attention to the woman in the fox mask. Noting her golden hair, slender legs, and striking white fishnet stockings, he inquired,
"May I know the name of this beautiful lady? Why not reveal your true face?"
The woman in the fox mask chuckled, her voice alluring.
"Blood Emperor Gnar, you're quite the intriguing man. But how do you know I'm beautiful? What if I'm not so attractive beneath the mask?"
"Hahaha."
Gnar laughed heartily.
"No, I can tell because I've already sensed it!"
The woman was taken aback, and before she could react, Gnar continued,
"You exude a captivating beauty all around you!"
"Hehehe, you certainly know how to flatter. But Mr. Gnar, aren't you worried that Ms. Robin and Ms. Zala might get jealous?"
Noticing the two women's reactions, Gnar quickly added,
"Don't worry. Robin-chan and Zala-chan know my true intentions."
"What a carefree man!"
Gnar didn't deny it, instead smiling,
"Isn't it a good thing to be charming? Otherwise, your beauty trap would be pointless."
Ain's expression was one of shock, while the woman in the fox mask was momentarily stunned. She quickly regained her composure and asked,
"Oh, so Mr. Gnar is open to our charm offensive?"
Gnar replied with a smile,
"How will you know if you don't try? Let's make a deal!"
Everyone was taken aback, but Ain seemed to have an idea, her expression turning cold. The woman in the fox mask quickly responded,
"What kind of deal?"
"It's simple. Remove your mask and let me see your face. Based on my satisfaction, I'll answer one question. But remember, you only get one question!"
Everyone was slightly surprised. Robin and Zala rolled their eyes.
However, Stussy responded promptly. She removed her mask, revealing a delicate and captivating face with a regal charm. She lightly covered her red lips with her fingers and asked,
"So, Mr. Gnar, are you satisfied with my appearance?"
"Ah haha... Very satisfied."
Gnar's laughter echoed on the deck.
He confirmed that the woman was Stussy, the undercover Vegapunk in CP0.
The women present were also surprised by her elegant and beautiful appearance.
Stussy smiled gently and asked,
"Then, may I ask my question, Mr. Gnar?"
"Of course... but..."
Gnar's tone grew serious.
"Beautiful lady, you must choose your question wisely. You only have one chance!"
Stussy's eyes blinked as she asked the most pressing question,
"Mr. Gnar, how did you escape from Impel Down?"
"Hehehe... That's because you don't fully understand my Devil Fruit ability..."
Gnar smiled slyly, and as red blood gushed from his body, it formed a clone of him standing beside him. Beautiful women can lie, and so can playboys...
