Chapter 147 Handover Ceremony

"Is it about time?"

"Has there been no news from MISS AllSunday?"

Night.

As the world was enveloped by the gloomy darkness, the desert country, which was still scorching hot during the day, was now shrouded in a chilly atmosphere.

In a Spiderman cafe located on the outskirts of the city, which had no intention of entertaining too many guests.

MR.2, who was dressed very dazzlingly despite being a man, leaned back and complained.

But then he turned his eyes and looked at Miss. Golden Week, a little loli who was quietly drinking a drink.

"By the way, Mr. 3 went out on a mission and then there was no news."

"Are you, your partner, not in a hurry at all?!"

"Huh!?"

Miss. Golden Week turned her head blankly, her face so calm that people wondered if she was a mannequin doll.

She said calmly, "I have already asked my boss for a new partner, so don't worry."

"Hey, hey, hey? Mr. 3 hasn't been confirmed dead yet!? Have you decided to change your partner so soon!? Are you so cold-blooded!?"

After hearing this, Mr. 2 immediately turned his face away and complained.

"Grandma~" At this moment, an old lady who looked like a mole in the corner of the table suddenly laughed strangely.

It was Miss Christmas, the mole man who ate the animal-type mole fruit!

She showed a look of contempt on her unfriendly face.

"What's the point of keeping a guy who can't even complete the mission!?"

"Even if we find Mr.3, I guess the boss will issue a hunting order for him?"

"Speaking of which, it would be better to let us replace Mr.3 directly, so that our commission and remuneration can be more generous."

"Hehehe..."

"What a cold-blooded organization!"

Mr.2 complained again.

At this moment, Mr.1, who had been sitting in the first seat, moved his ears and suddenly said to everyone in a low voice:

"Someone is coming!"

The next second, the whole cafe suddenly became quiet.

A burst of disorderly footsteps instantly entered everyone's ears clearly.

Gulp~!

In an instant, the senior agents of Baroque Works, who had been preparing for a long time, suddenly choked up at the same time.

Because according to the instructions they got from the secret report, today, they will meet the mysterious boss who is elusive!

He is also the boss of all of them!

Ring, ring, ring~!

With the sound of a beautiful wind chime, the door of Spiderman Cafe was suddenly pushed open by someone outside.

And this sudden noise instantly attracted the attention of everyone present.

Immediately, in the sight of the agents, a figure that they were already familiar with appeared outside the door of the cafe.

"Miss. All Sunday!"

Seeing Robin's figure, everyone in Baroque Works was not surprised at all.

After all, from beginning to end, all the docking tasks and arrangements of the entire work agency were completed by Robin alone.

As the partner of the Boss, she should be here.

"Ah~ Everyone gets along very well!"

"It seems that our next plan will be very harmonious!"

Robin, who had changed back to her Baroque Works style woolen coat and round brim hat, put one hand on her waist and leaned against the door of the cafe.

She took big steps and walked into the cafe.

But at this moment, all the senior agents focused their eyes on the direction outside the door, and tried to look outside in the gap created by Robin's swaying waist.

With the help of the dim moonlight, two figures suddenly appeared in everyone's sight.

However, because the lights in the cafe were too bright, the figures of the two people were blurred.

"Miss. All Sunday, are those two people..."

Miss., who was disguised as the owner of the cafe, pointed to the door with both hands and asked curiously.

"Oh? Have you seen it?"

Robin, who exuded a unique charm like a violet, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and suddenly turned sideways to completely give way to the door.

Then she suddenly stretched out an arm and said with a smile:

"That's right, I guess you can't wait any longer, right?!"

"In that case, let me formally introduce to you the mysterious BOSS you have never seen before..."

"The boss behind our Baroque Works..."

"Portgas D. Ace!!!"

Robin suddenly raised her voice, like an excellent host, at the most critical moment, she used words to mobilize the mood of everyone present.

And just as Robin's voice fell, a brilliant flame suddenly rose outside the door of the cafe.

The blazing flames illuminated everything outside the door.

I saw a young man with freckles on his face showing a confident smile and stepped into the cafe.

"Hey~ It's our first meeting, please take care of me~!"

"The time is ripe, it's time to meet you all!"

Ace greeted them skillfully with a domineering smile on his face.

The flames shone, and all non-electrical lighting equipment in the room was instantly ignited.

The chill that had been lingering in the room was swept away.

It was completely different from Luffy, who even had to have his lines written on his palms by Akari.

Although he was not very old, Akari had already told him that this identity might have many loopholes.

But his domineering appearance still stunned all the senior agents present in an instant! ! !

"Portgas..."

"D..."

"Ace...! !?"

Several people opened their mouths in shock, looking at Ace's still very young face, but they didn't even dare to breathe.

"How is it possible...!? Have we always been subordinates of pirates!?"

Mr.2 murmured in astonishment:

"Our boss is actually the captain of the second division of the Whitebeard Pirates?!"

"Hey, hey~ I'm not dreaming!" The hot-tempered Miss. Christmas naturally learned to speak in a low voice at this moment.

Miss. Double Fingers also followed closely and echoed: "He is really an incredible big shot!"

Mr.4 was sweating all over his face and made a trembling hum.

Only Mr.1 frowned at this moment, not knowing what he was thinking.

"Fire Fist Ace... I didn't expect you to be our boss?"

Tap tap tap tap...

Ace walked into the cafe without any guilt. He sat directly on the main seat of the cafe under the guidance of Robin, and then scanned the people below with a scornful look.

"What, don't you accept it?!"

"No..."

A group of senior agents shook their heads repeatedly.

Miss crossed her long fingers together and asked hesitantly:

"It's not that I don't accept it, but it's a little hard to believe."

"As an important figure in the Four Emperors Pirates, you should have more important things to deal with, right?!"

"Why did you set up this Baroque Works in the first half of the Grand Line?"

"Of course it's because..."

Ace looked calm, and then he leaned down and said:

"This is the organization I created before I joined the Whitebeard Pirates!"

He smiled and explained:

"Three years ago, when I first entered the Grand Line, I met Miss.All Sunday, with her help, we successfully built the Baroque Works! "

"Originally, I wanted the Baroque Works in the first half of the Grand Line to become a force in my hands and clear the way for me!"

"Unfortunately, after entering the New World, I found out... my idea was too naive!"

"Let you become the sword in my hand?"

Ace shook his head and sneered self-deprecatingly, and then spoke again:

"No matter how many ants there are, they can't gather the power to fight against elephants!"

"I thought the high-quality bounty hunters from all over the world would bring me surprises..."

"But the reality is that you are too weak!!!"

Ace's voice suddenly became cold, and he played his role according to Red's arrangement.

Because neither Red nor Ace wanted the name of Whitebeard to be involved in this matter, so after some discussion, the two hit it off and finally made up this rhetoric.

However, the main activities of the Baroque Works were three years ago.

And that year was also the time when Ace went to sea.

And because he refused the invitation of the Navy Shichibukai, he was considered a prominent figure in the first half of the Grand Line.

There are loopholes.

But the title of Whitebeard's second division captain and the strength that Ace often showed in the newspapers made Baroque's agents dare not to think about it in detail.

…

…

"Weak!?"

The agents frowned instantly after being ridiculed for no reason.

Although they knew that they could not compare with the cadres of the Four Emperors Pirate Group, they were almost invincible in the first half of the Grand Line. How could they have nothing to do with these two words?

Mr. 2, who was outspoken, opened his mouth immediately and wanted to refute something.

But Ace did not give him this opportunity at all, but said:

"So..."

"In order to prevent you from becoming a stain in my life, I specially found an expert to take over my position and become the next president of Baroque Works!"

Pah!

After saying this, Ace clapped his hands twice, and then said to the door of the cafe:

"Chihong, you can come in!"

"It's finally my turn!"

Chihong, who had been waiting outside the door for a long time, chuckled, and then stepped to Ace's side under the puzzled eyes of the agents.

Then, Ace stood up directly, let Chihong sit on the main seat where he was sitting, and then said to everyone:

"Okay, now the handover ceremony is officially completed."

"From today on, you will obey Chihong's orders!"

"Wait...wait a minute!"

Miss. Shuangzhi immediately stood up in surprise:

"Isn't this a bit too strange!?"

"Why do you want to suddenly hand over the BOSS?!"

"And..." She focused her eyes on Hong's body.

Although she didn't say anything, her silence had already expressed her doubts about Chi Hong.

Several other agents also showed similar expressions.

Although they did not dare to make too many mistakes in the face of Ace's identity, they looked at him with a hint of suspicion in their red eyes.

Fortunately, Chihong was already prepared for this.

He raised the corners of his mouth indifferently. Although he was not as domineering as Ace's previous performance, he still looked aloof and domineering.

"It seems like your old subordinates don't trust me very much, Ace~"

"No way, who told you that you don't like to be in the public eye!"

Ace laughed and said in harmony with Chi Hong:

"But since you plan to use these wastes, shouldn't you also properly show your power in front of them!?"

"That's right."

Chi Hong chuckled, and then suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed his palm at the window of the cafe under the gaze of everyone.

The next second, he calmly confided: "Surfing!!!"

boom! ! ! !

The blue waves condensed quickly in the red palm at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then suddenly poured out of the cafe window like a goddess scattering flowers!

With a bang, the closed window was broken by a mysterious force, but it also allowed all the agents to clearly see what was happening outside the window.

Under everyone's surprised gazes, a huge wave suddenly appeared in the arid desert, surging towards the distant desert with overwhelming force.

Along the way, all the rocks and sand were photographed and smashed into the deeper earth.

The bizarre waves seemed to have infinite kinetic energy. They roared hundreds of meters into the distance before slowly stopping and finally disappearing into the night.

In the blink of an eye, a huge tunnel appeared in the desert and wilderness outside the cafe.

"Gudong~!"

Seeing this scene, the agents of Baroque Works choked up again.

And when their eyes shifted back to the inside of the cafe and looked at Crimson...

Deep in their eyes, there was already a look of fear.

At this moment, compared to the pressure brought by Ace's identity, Chi Hong's simple, crude and intuitive method really allowed these frogs in the well who thought they were powerful to see the greatness of the world.

Even Ace, who was acting with Chi Hong, completely forgot about the content of the script at this time. He looked at Chi Hong with a look of shock on his face and couldn't let go for a long time.

Even after learning that the Straw Hats had defeated Blackbeard, he was already mentally prepared.

But when Chihong showed this hand, he was still shocked.

The ability to create waves! ?

As an ability user, Ace knows very well how terrifying this move is!

"The Pokémon world... is really mysterious and terrifying!" Ace murmured softly in his heart.

However, Chihong, who showed off her hands, was still sitting on the main seat, her eyes lingering on the faces of the senior Baroque agents one by one, and then she suddenly smiled:

"Now, you should be able to calm down and listen to what I have to say, right?!"
