I can’t wait to live until I’m tired of it.”

Dorothy Alita stood motionless, showing no signs of panic.

After approaching, the demon sword Pusuo Wiseman stopped and stared at the black gauze on Dorothy Alita's face.

The sinister gaze seemed to pierce through the veil, and he continued to talk to himself:

"Yes, there are people watching above. I won't touch you now. But you should also know very well that you are just an investment for him, a bet with the old fox in the family behind you."

Pusho Wiseman, who once again took steps towards the door of the conference room, showed a joking smile and raised his hands to applaud:

"You prove your worth with your talent, but 'value' is born in comparison."

"Who do you think, you or me, will be more valuable to the Adjudication Division in the future?"

Suddenly, as he was about to pass by Puso Wiseman, he turned around and put his index finger up to his mouth.

Dorothy Alita whispered "Shh" in her ear, and said with a weird smile:

"I know you have the answer in your heart."

"so,

Please look forward to that day.”

After the curling words fell, the weird and cold laughter lingered in his ears, and the figure of the demon sword Pusuo Wiseman had disappeared into the corridor outside the conference room.

The indifferent empress Dorothy Alita stood in front of the door of the conference room for a long time. A bitter smile suddenly appeared under her black veil.

her plan

It shouldn't be like this.

Originally, she planned to maintain a "superficial colleague" relationship with that man, wait until the [Border Gate] of Wano Country opened again, and then go to the world behind the [Border Gate] under the jurisdiction of the other man to find what she needed.

But now.

All plans seem to have changed.

Do you regret being so impulsive?

Suddenly, the young man's delicate features appeared in his mind, and Empress Dorothy Alita let out a sigh of relief.

She knew that Higashinohara was very strong,

But she knew more clearly in her heart how terrifying this man known as the "Demon Sword" was, and that he would only die if he encountered him.

Then, she can come alone.

because,

He is hers.

evening,

Patton County, Upper Kyoto Metropolitan Area,

White Swan Harbor.

In a suite of a mid-range hotel, four men and one woman were crowded in front of the computer in the same room. The atmosphere was inexplicably tense at this juncture.

Feilina, the deputy captain of the execution team, glanced at the silent figure sitting in front of the computer all afternoon, and finally couldn't help but ask:

"President, is there any news?"

Kairutu, the president of the Mithril Society, did not turn around, his eyes were still watching the entry list he had hacked into the backend of the Barton County Tourism Bureau and downloaded.

The back joints of his fingers gently tapped the black tempered glass table next to the mouse pad.

He said expressionlessly:

"Most of these people come from different countries in the Cross Continent. They travel independently or in group tours. Their arrival times are also different. Except for their names, there are not many differences from previous years."

Hearing the words of President Kairutu, the solemn atmosphere in the suite suddenly relaxed. A member of the executive team who had been nervous all afternoon said with a smile:

"Let me just say, even if the city is now closed and people are being hunted, don't underestimate people's enthusiasm for traveling. What's the problem with this?"

But halfway through his hindsight, he was stopped by the look in the eyes of the deputy captain Felina.

"Listen to what the president has to say."

After hearing this, Kailutu turned to look at Feilina approvingly, and suddenly clicked the mouse lightly.

In an instant, I saw that the dozens of pages of densely packed entry lists on my computer desktop suddenly shrank infinitely.

In the end, there were only a few dozen red-marked names left, and the surnames still seemed to come from dozens of different countries.

"These people are."

Feilina was stunned for a moment and asked.

Kairutu nodded calmly and said slowly, "These names are individual members of the delegations of various countries in this world conference. I roughly estimate that there are about forty countries."

Everyone was stunned when they heard this.

What's going on?

There are still nearly two months until the World Conference. Even if we arrive half a month in advance, it is still too early. What’s more, the “conference village” that has been used to receive delegations from various countries in Beijing over the years is in Baling County, which is adjacent to Kyoto.

So some of these delegations.

Why did they arrive early? And why did they hide their whereabouts and gather in Barton County?

Is it really travel?

No one in the Mithril Society executive team was so naive. Almost subconsciously, everyone looked at the president Kairutu who was sitting in front of the computer and frowning.

"I don't know their purpose either."

President Kailutu shook his head and guessed calmly, "But such a gathering is most likely the so-called 'Barton County anomaly' in the mission assigned to us by the Eagle Bureau."

"Then what should we do? Should we report it to the Eagle Bureau?" Vice Captain Feilina asked.

"Now? It's too early."

President Kairutu glanced at Feilina:

"Although we all know that some members of those national delegations, appearing in the Kyoto metropolitan area two months in advance must not be as simple as traveling, but there is no evidence to prove that they are not traveling."

Everyone was a little disappointed when they heard this.

Feilina thought for a few seconds, and suddenly she came to her senses, "What the president means is"

Kairutu nodded, and his eyes became a little sharp, "Yes, so many individual members of the delegation arrived in Barton County to hide their whereabouts and have not yet left. This can only mean one thing, and that is that they are carrying out something.

Kind of 'waiting'."

"What are you waiting for?" someone asked.

"I'm not sure about this yet." President Kairutu shook his head again, and then said without thinking:

"But I know that as they await the arrival of these seemingly unrelated 'tourists,' there will be a rally in Barton County."

After hearing the words of President Kairutu, everyone in the Mithril Society suddenly brightened up!

"Where is the best place for gatherings in Barton County?" Vice Captain Felina's mind was running at high speed.

Like this secret gathering,

The chosen location must not be in a busy city where there are many people and the city's security management may check at any time. The transportation at the gathering location must also be very convenient to ensure that no matter what situation occurs, there is time to evacuate.

Almost subconsciously, a place appeared in Feilina's mind.

That’s right!

It was the White Swan Harbor beneath their feet.

Because it is close to the estuary, White Swan Harbor has the loosest security management in the entire Barton County. When walking on the street, there will not be a celestial patrol stopping you to register your identity with an expressionless face.

In addition, it is adjacent to the entrance to the West Sea and the Barton Canal, making land and water transportation extremely convenient. It can be said to be the best secret meeting point.

Thinking of this, Feilina looked at Kairutu excitedly.

The latter seemed to have thought of this, nodded slightly, and commanded in a calm voice:

"In the next three days, we will be divided into two teams. One team will keep an eye on the situation of the white swan and report any abnormalities immediately."

"The other team is keeping an eye on the movements of members of delegations from various countries to prevent us from misjudging the location. They did not choose White Swan Port. They will still report any abnormalities as soon as possible."

"Remember, safety comes first. Our task is just to report. Are there any questions?"

Everyone in the suite said in unison:

"no problem!"

For a moment, the members of the Mithril Society execution team, who had caught some clues, immediately started to follow up with excitement.

However, one thing that even President Kairutu von Caucasus did not realize is that

At this special time when Barton County's tourism industry is obviously experiencing a setback, the number of strange ships docked outside White Swan Harbor seems to have increased.

There are even many unregistered black ships that have not docked, like a large thick black cloud, far away at the end of the sight where the sea and the sky meet.

Dark clouds are gathering over the city, and wind and rain are approaching.
