The dormant undercurrents grow quietly in unnoticed corners, just as the ubiquitous bacteria often enter the human body silently and cling to it.

The existence that is almost forgotten by everyone, or deliberately avoided, will eventually reappear in the public eye in an unexpected way, whether they are willing or not...

"Tsk, tsk, tsk~ It really caused quite a bit of damage!"

In the post-war Flower City, Lorelai walked aimlessly among the collapsed buildings, pretending to look carefully at the people around him who were doing reconstruction work, while secretly thinking about his future plans.

Big-Mom's attack was undoubtedly beyond everyone's expectations, and the opponent's defeat was even more surprising.

I'm afraid that when they saw that the top masters of the two major forces actually chose this place as their battlefield, the people of Flower City and the pirates were all in despair. Even though the battle between the two sides was far away in the sky, as the saying goes, when gods fight, mortals suffer. Even a little aftermath is not something that ordinary people can bear.

The prosperous capital of Wano Country suffered an unprecedented disaster. It would probably take a lot of wealth and time to restore its previous prosperity...

But that was not what Lorelai needed to consider. What was before her now was still to determine her position in the Beasts Pirates.

At the cost of familiar betrayal and the priceless treasure that could prolong one's life - pure gold, I finally got on board the big ship of Yakumo Shira, and successfully achieved a good position with my outstanding contributions. Compared with those guys who were "forced" to turn against us but still refused to change their ways, I can say that I have done the limit of what I could do!

Next, whether to choose to forge ahead bravely or to choose to settle down and stay at peace is the choice you need to make right now!

"But having said that, given the atmosphere in the Beasts Pirates where the strong are on top and the weak are on the bottom, I'm afraid it would be impossible even if I wanted to live in peace with the world, right?

Moreover, if I want to gain more, I will not be allowed to settle for the status quo!"

Thinking back to the earth-shaking battle that took place here, the power displayed by both Kaido and Yakumo Haku was beyond his ability to contend with, not to mention the several beautiful and powerful figures that appeared in the arena before that!

——Contributing pure gold is not something you can live on forever. On the contrary, using this capital to go further is a wiser choice!

If I'm lucky, maybe I can get a kiss from her?

A blushing and lingering scene emerged in his mind. Lorelai shook his head and woke himself up from the strange fantasy. It is not a good idea to be too ambitious. Before the unattainable fantasy comes true, at least he should further improve his status, right?

For example, first put on the image of a woman who cares about the current situation in Huadu, is pragmatic and enthusiastic?

"Hey!"

A sudden shout brought Lorelai back to reality from his thoughts. He saw that Sephis and others who had previously fought against the monster girls appeared in an open space not far away, leading a large number of Wano country officials and craftsmen.

At this time, Sephis was standing on a high ground with her slender waist folded, shouting to Lorelai,

"Hey! You are Lorelai Sweet, right? The third in command of the new pirate alliance that joined recently?"

"Right... I don't know, is there anything I can do to help?"

Glancing thoughtfully at the large group of people behind Sephis, Lorelai asked tentatively.

"That's great. Please help evacuate the people! A big project is about to be carried out in Huadu!"

"???"

Following the sound with a puzzled mind, Lorelai looked at the craftsmen who were scattered in twos and threes, some measuring data, and some lying on the ground writing and drawing on straw paper. She had a hunch that Yakumo Bai seemed to be planning to make something amazing again, so she couldn't help but ask,

"What is this for? A major project? Could it be an order from Lord Yakumo?"

"Of course, if it were anyone else, I'm afraid they wouldn't be able to come up with such a grand plan!"

Glancing at Lorelai imperceptibly, as if surprised that the other party had guessed so accurately, Sephis took out a drawing from his arms, carefully unfolded it, and then leisurely explained,

"According to Master Yakumo, since the Flower Capital has been destroyed to this extent, why not just rebuild a new capital?

Moreover, the name is no longer a gentle name like "Flower City", but is renamed "Dragon City" based on the ability of Lord Kaido's fruit!

Even the entire country was officially changed from the original "Wano Country" to "Inazuma"!

According to what the adults said, this seems to be a symbol of thunder and lightning!"

"Ryuto...Inazuma?"

Lolelai looked down at the magnificent capital city depicted in the blueprint, and was suddenly greatly shocked.

She knew that Wano Country was a closed kingdom that had existed for a long time, and it had only officially entered people's vision in recent years. Out of inertia of thinking, she naturally thought that this was something that the Beasts Pirates snatched from the rulers of Wano Country.

But now, the entire country has to change its name, and even the capital that has existed for who knows how long has to be demolished and rebuilt. Can this be recognized by the people, or even started with enthusiasm?

Inevitably, Lorelai had a premonition that the entire New World, and even the entire ocean, would enter a new order. The collapse of the Pirate Alliance was a fuse, and Yakumo Bai's actions undoubtedly announced that a country (force) with integrated military and political power had come to the fore and participated in the construction of the new order in an unprecedented manner, and in an extremely strong manner!

"It's a pity that the people of this country don't seem to realize it. Wano Country...seems to be completely becoming the dust of history."

Involuntarily, Lorelai muttered to himself.

The perspective of being in a high position allowed Lorelei to see the deeper meaning of this arrangement. And how could Sephis, who had also climbed to the position of the Flying Six, not know that this would be the last "scalpel" that Yakumo Shiro would use on Wano Country?

However, even though he knew the whole thing clearly, Sephis would rather focus on completing the entire "transformation" successfully.

After all, compared with being favored by Yakumo Shira, what does this country that has nothing to do with him mean?

"Since this is the plan, as a new member, I naturally have to contribute as much as possible. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince everyone!"

Lorelai said to Sephis sincerely that, after all, the news about pure gold could not be made public, so his contribution could only be remembered by Yakumo Bai. In the eyes of others, he might still be a fence-sitter!

Of course not! If you want to gain a foothold here, you must at least make your own contribution under the watchful eyes of everyone!

And the Flying Six in front of us is the best candidate!

In addition, maybe he could make a potential friend or ally? Because in Lorelai's opinion, Sephis was undoubtedly a guy who had bad intentions towards his "master"...

“Mmmmm——!!”

Just as Lolelai's mind was in turmoil, a sudden pain from both body and mind came upon him. The sudden change not only made him half-kneel on the ground in pain, but also made Sephis look surprised and doubtful.

Because in her sight, Lolelai's face turned pale rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and after only a few seconds, she had collapsed to the ground weakly. Only her violent breathing and rising and falling chest showed that her condition was very bad, so bad that even a strong person like her could only wait to be killed and could not put up the slightest resistance!

“What the hell… is going on!?”

The sudden change made Sephis confused for a moment, because she had no idea why Lolelai had changed so much. It couldn't be that she just said a few words to her, right?

Unlike Sephis's confusion, Lorelai vaguely caught a glimpse of someone who could accomplish this task amidst the tormenting pain.

It's impossible for Yakumo Bai, because the other party has no reason to do such a thing, and he can't and won't do anything that is disadvantageous to him, not to mention that his life is in the hands of the other party!

Then, it can only be...

----------

At the same time, at the Inazuma border (Wano Country), the defenses that were swept away by Big Mom had not had time to be re-defended, so a seemingly weak figure broke in unhindered.

As the other person's bare white feet gradually stepped onto the land, colorful and gorgeous mushrooms emerged from the soil like bamboo shoots after a spring rain.

Following that was a delicate and sweet whisper.

"One potted plant broke halfway through, and another one disappeared for some reason. The remaining one is about to mature, but it has a new owner...

I'm really worried. I wonder if the new owner can give her to me?

After all, it’s just a wild flower that can be found everywhere…”
