That afternoon.

Chabaody Islands.

Although Uchiha Hikaru had seen this place many times in the comics, this was the first time he had actually come here in real life.

Just as set in the comics.

The entire island is built on a group of mangroves, and the ground is made up of the roots of the mangroves. The largest of the mangroves is called the "Yerqiman Mangrove", which can be vaguely seen from dozens of kilometers away. In addition, there are a large number of bubbles scattered above the island group, which are made into various shapes. At first glance, it is spectacular.

"According to the map, it should be here."

Uchiha Hikaru stood in the captain's room, compared the images seen on the monitor with the map hanging on the wall, and confirmed it.

The map she has now is no longer the one she brought out from Onigashima, but a brand new map obtained by combining the maps given by Kaido, Red Hair, and White Beard.

Although the world of pirates is vast, even a behemoth like the Whitebeard Pirates has not been able to fully explore it, but the journeys of the three Four Emperors combined have basically restored most of this sea. The Sabaody Islands adjacent to the Navy Headquarters are an important place that the three have marked in detail on their maps.

"Find a place to land, Bulma."

"Ah."

After using radar to detect the surrounding situation, Bulma controlled the huge "Blue Planet" and found a place to land nearby.

Then press the button to shrink the destroyer and temporarily store it in the universal capsule.

"……Eh?!"

Among the people present, only Uchiha Hikaru had already known about this function of the "Blue Planet".

The remaining few people all showed expressions of astonishment. The youngest one, Naruto, even grabbed Uchiha Hikaru's arm, and then shouted "Sister Hikaru" while pointing at Bulma, looking like he was so scared that he was incoherent.

"puff--"

Uchiha Hikaru couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Okay, little Naruto. Don't be so surprised, it's just a little bit of technology."

"Xiao Ai, you too, calm down."

"..."

Esdeath glanced at her, suppressed the slight surprise on her face, and said calmly: "It's interesting that the technology can shrink a 100-meter-long ship to this extent... But won't this have any impact on the facilities on the ship, especially the 'gravity training room'?"

"Of course not. I have done many tests on this aspect and it is absolutely foolproof!"

Bulma said confidently.

Esdeath was noncommittal.

……

The Sabaody Archipelago has arrived.

Next, Uchiha Hikaru plans to find a vice-captain of the Roger Pirates to confirm the current time point.

That's right.

It was Silverbaz Reilly.

This guy has been hiding his identity since the disbandment of Roger's pirate group many years ago, living in the Sabaody Islands as a coating master. Except for a few old friends, it is difficult for ordinary people to connect him with the Pirate King. However, for Uchiha Hikaru and his party who know the plot, it is not difficult to find him.

All he needs to do is find his old lover Xia Qi.

After some inquiries.

Uchiha Hikaru and his party finally arrived at "Shaki's Blackmail BAR" on Island No. 13, and here they met the former Queen of Nine Snake Island, who looked young but had actually lived for more than half a century.

"Are you Miss Xia Qi?"

Uchiha Hikaru chose to get straight to the point: "Nice to meet you. We are Red Hair's friend and a member of the 'Dimension Pirates'. I learned from him that you and Mr. Rayleigh were living in seclusion here, so I came to visit you."

——This statement is not entirely a lie, because Uchiha Hikaru did ask Red Hair for information about Rayleigh, but he asked it together with other members of Roger's pirate group.

Given Red Hair's personality, even if he knew about this, he would not come to Xia Qi specifically to correct it.

"……oh?"

Xia Qi stood behind the counter and seemed to vaguely remember something: "'Dimension Pirates'? I seem to have heard of your name.

“You are a new force that suddenly appeared on this sea some time ago, right?

"As soon as he showed up, he defeated the Four Emperors Kaido, as well as his subordinates 'Flame Disaster' and 'Drought Disaster'. Not long ago, he met the Whitebeard Pirates and had a small-scale sparring match. Afterwards, the two sides shook hands and made peace... But I haven't heard that you are still in contact with Shanks.

"Could it be that he made this up on purpose to get information from my family member?"

Hear this.

Before Uchiha Hikaru could say anything, Bulma couldn't help but interrupt: "Ms. Xia Qi actually knew what we did before, and that we have become so famous?"

"...No, these are just the information I personally collected."

Xia Qi denied it, then narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at them with a scrutinizing gaze: "To be honest, I only learned about your existence recently, and I once doubted the authenticity of this information... Because among you, except for one person who is confirmed to be Kaido's daughter, the origins of the others are uncertain, as if they jumped out of a crack in the stone.

But it is really unbelievable that such a group of people could face two of the Four Emperors in succession in such a short period of time.

So... can you tell me where you are from? Is it really the closed country of Wano?"

"That's it."

Uchiha Guang smiled and gave an ambiguous answer.

It seemed that he saw that she had no intention of confessing.

Xia Qi did not ask any more questions, but directly started the next topic: "Okay, I will assume that you are friends of Whitebeard and Red Hair. Then, what is your purpose in coming to find Rayleigh? He and I have not been pirates for many years."

"Well..."

"You should know this person, Ace, right?"

"One of our crew members, who is a very good friend of him, accidentally learned that he is in danger, so he begged us to rescue him together. According to seniority, he should be Rayleigh's nephew. I think Mr. Rayleigh would not want to see him die in the hands of the navy, right?"

Uchiha Hikaru paused and said, "Also, I would like to ask you for some information...Has Ace's brother Monkey D. Luffy come to your place recently?"

There was a brief silence.

Xia Qi took out two pieces of letter paper from the drawer and slapped them on the counter: "Two pieces of information, 10,000 Baileys each."

"can."

Uchiha Hikaru casually arranged two strings of coins, then took the letter and took a look at it:

"Fire Fist Ace was arrested by the Navy yesterday"

"The Straw Hat Pirates Defeat Gekko Moriah"
