In Sengoku's office.
Ryuya and Kizaru sat in front of Sengoku, listening to his arrangements.
At this moment, Ryuya said to Sengoku, "Sengoku-sama, you should know my abilities. I want to go in openly and mingle with the people attending the Tea Party. That way, whether I'm launching an attack or making a strategic retreat, I can do it better!"
In the end, Ryuya added, "If you can get me an invitation, it will be even easier."
Ryuya seemed to be just casually mentioning it, but it was actually deliberate.
Because Ryuya knew that one of the heads of the pirate underworld, the queen of the Pleasure District, Stussy, was actually a member of CP0.
Ryuya wanted Sengoku to expose Stussy in front of him.
Sengoku obviously thought of Stussy under Ryuya's hint.
After thinking about it for a while, Sengoku said to Ryuya, "No problem. I'll send you a confidential document later, and I'll also get you an invitation."
"Fleet Admiral-sama, I'll go in alone this time. Kizaru and the others can wait in the distance and wait for my news."
Ryuya's idea was similar to what Sengoku had been thinking.
Sengoku took a golden Den Den Mushi from the drawer and handed it to Ryuya.
"Ryuya, this is a golden Den Den Mushi. It's also called a Buster Call Den Den Mushi. But Ryuya, this time, if you really want to activate the Buster Call, you must ensure that you can succeed. The Buster Call cannot fail again!"
Ryuya naturally knew what Sengoku meant.
Because of Ryuya's other identity, the existence of the mysterious person,
The Navy's Buster Call had always been a failure.
It put immense pressure on the Navy.
Although later, because of Ryuya's existence, the Navy regained some face.
But Sengoku had to be extremely cautious about using the Buster Call.
He was afraid that it would fail again and disgrace the Navy.
After taking the golden Den Den Mushi from Sengoku's hand, Ryuya and Kizaru confirmed the operational details again, then left Sengoku's office.
Today was a rest day. Ryuya would set off tomorrow.
So, Ryuya came to his room.
He found Stella and Ain helping each other in the kitchen, making delicious food for him.
"Master, you're back. The food will be ready soon."
Ryuya had previously told Stella to call him Ryuya.
But Stella insisted on calling him that.
Then, Ryuya didn't say anything else.
Ryuya sat down and said to Ain and Stella, "I'm going on a mission tomorrow. You two stay here and train your bodies."
Hearing Ryuya's words, Ain came to Ryuya's side and said to him, "Ryuya-sama, I want to go on the mission with you."
"No, this mission is very dangerous. Be good, I won't bring you on this mission. Train well here."
After saying this, Ryuya turned to Stella and said, "Stella, you train hard too. Even if you just increase your stamina, I'll see if I can find you a good Devil Fruit for this mission."
Stella's beautiful eyes widened when she heard Ryuya's words.
She looked at Ryuya in disbelief and said, "Master, you don't have to do that. I was just a slave before..."
Before Stella could finish her sentence, Ryuya reached out and gently rubbed Stella's beautiful hair.
"I told you, you're not a slave anymore. You're my friend, my partner. Helping your partner, making her stronger, and being able to achieve more dreams in this vast sea, isn't that good?"
Stella's heart skipped a beat.
Tears seemed to fall uncontrollably from the corner of Stella's eyes.
She looked at Ryuya's figure, as if she wanted to imprint his figure in her mind.
Stella said to Ryuya in a slightly choked voice, "Master, my dream is to always stand behind you, to do your laundry and cook for you."
Ain, beside her, heard Stella's words and had a strange expression.
She didn't know why, but she felt like Stella was confessing.
But even Ain herself wasn't sure about this feeling.
Because she did sense something completely different from other people in Ryuya.
It was as if Ryuya had countless secrets waiting for her to explore.
Plus, Ryuya's gentle smile always made Ain unable to control her gaze, making her look at Ryuya.
"Ryuya-sama, no matter what the mission is, please be sure to protect yourself."
"Don't worry, I will. I never do anything unprepared."
"A New Threat"
Soon, the time came for the next day.
After receiving the invitation from Sengoku, Ryuya boarded a super luxurious ship and headed towards Whole Cake Island.
And this invitation was obviously provided by Stussy using her identity.
But before leaving, Sengoku emphasized repeatedly that they must not reveal each other's identities.
You see, it was incredibly difficult for CP0 to cultivate Stussy into a giant in the underworld.
It represented a huge amount of money and resources!
Lying on the sun lounger, Ryuya enjoyed the afternoon sun.
The sunlight on his body had a unique sense of comfort.
His current identity was that of an arms dealer, and he was incredibly generous.
The ship below the lounger was also a testament to his wealth.
Just as Ryuya felt like he was about to fall asleep, his Den Den Mushi rang.
Because this time, he was going on a mission alone.
So, the Den Den Mushi was naturally carried on Ryuya's person.
"Brrr~ Brrr~ Brrr~"
"Robin?!"
When Ryuya saw the appearance displayed on the Den Den Mushi, he immediately used "Shunpo" to get to the mast.
Standing at the top of the ship, letting the sea wind blow through his hair, he answered Robin's call.
As soon as the Den Den Mushi was connected, he heard Robin's voice coming from the Den Den Mushi: "Ryuya-nii, Big Mom's crew came to deliver an invitation to us. They said they wanted to invite you to attend the first Tea Party."
"Who delivered it?"
Ryuya was a little confused about Big Mom's actions.
"A long-legged sister with silver hair delivered it. She was carrying a big sword on her back."
Hearing Robin's words, Ryuya roughly guessed who had delivered the invitation to Ohara.
If he wasn't mistaken, it should be one of Big Mom's Sweet Commanders - Smoothie.
