Chapter 146: The Advancement of the Plan

Three days later.

"Who the hell are you!?"

"Is this the captain's new recruit?"

Chrollo stood in front of Conrad, sizing him up with a sharp, scrutinizing gaze.

It had to be said—after eating the Moonlight Fruit, Conrad, a member of the Mink Tribe, radiated a completely different kind of presence. His aura had shifted. Wild, primal... more powerful.

To Chrollo, this beastman form was a damn near perfect addition to his collection. But unfortunately—this one was off-limits.

Ryuunosuke had a strict rule: No targeting fellow crew members.

"Chrollo-sama, I'm Conrad, captain of the Sixth Division of the Handyman squad," Conrad introduced himself with respect. "I'm a Mink."

"These are the goods we looted from the Kingdom of Pratondo. The captain said to hand them over to you."

The moment Conrad laid eyes on Chrollo, he felt it—an overwhelming pressure. His instincts screamed at him: this man was dangerous. Chrollo wasn't just strong—he was lethal. Just like Najenda, Chrollo was the kind of guy who could flatten him without breaking a sweat.

Chrollo accepted the loot and gave a small nod.

"You've gained the most out of all the division captains so far. Keep it up. Do well, and maybe your squad will get promoted to a formal unit."

Without another word, Chrollo turned and disappeared aboard his ship alongside Machi.

"Whew..." Conrad let out a breath of tension as they vanished. "These captains are insane... I wonder what the rest of them are like..."

Meanwhile, on the other side of the sea—

"Captain, Conrad rescued three other Mink Tribe members. They're pretty strong."

Chrollo's voice echoed from the Den Den Mushi.

"Also, his Moonlight Fruit seems to have some kind of natural draw for the Minks. Honestly, it might have originated because of them."

"There's definitely a deep connection between that fruit and the Minks."

"I know," Ryuunosuke replied calmly. "Conrad already reported this."

"How's the other task I gave you coming along?"

"I've contacted nearly everyone," Chrollo answered. "A few of them—big names with bounties over 100 million—tried to kill me. I took care of them."

"The rest might be useful later. I've done my best to pull strings."

"As for the small fries, I didn't waste my time."

"Good. Keep at it and wait for my signal," Ryuunosuke said. "We're almost ready. I'll touch base with the others first."

He hung up.

"Moonlight Fruit, huh..." Ryuunosuke muttered, stroking his chin. "It really is connected to the Minks. Could be the trigger for their Sulong form..."

Not even Morgans would know something this deep. But based on what Kaiser said, the puzzle pieces were starting to fit.

He picked up the Den Den Mushi again and contacted Yahiko.

"Yahiko, accept their invitation."

---

At the same time, Ryuunosuke placed another call—this time to Enel.

"Captain! What's up!?"

Enel had just finished wiping out a pirate crew and was overseeing cleanup.

His own squad had exploded in size. With his flashy powers and over-the-top persona—calling himself the God of Thunder—Enel had a knack for attracting followers.

His squad now numbered close to a thousand, outnumbering all other squads combined.

"Send Roelki over," Ryuunosuke ordered.

"Got it!" Enel responded cheerfully.

"Roelki! The captain wants you!" Enel shouted.

Everyone nearby paused and looked at him, confused. Most of them didn't even know they were part of the Dragon Hunter Pirates—Enel's bold announcement threw them for a loop.

"What? I call myself 'captain' all the time. You got a problem with that!?" Enel barked. "Back to work, all of you! This is performance art or something!"

The men quickly dropped it. They'd seen Enel fry people to a crisp with a single lightning bolt—nobody wanted to be next.

Roelki walked up, slightly confused. He'd been counting inventory when Enel dragged him over.

"The captain wants me?"

"Roelki," Ryuunosuke said, "assist Enel closely from now on. And more importantly—I want you to accept the Navy's next invitation."

"Wait, accept it?" Roelki blinked. "Didn't you tell us to refuse last time?"

"The Navy will send a second invitation soon," Ryuunosuke replied. "Accept it when it comes."

"There are a lot of open seats in the Shichibukai right now. And with the Navy's next big plan... they'll definitely approach us again."

Roelki nodded. "Understood."

After the call ended, Enel scratched his head.

"What's that supposed to mean...?"

Enel had grown used to not thinking too much. He just followed the general plan of the Dragon Hunter Pirates and rolled with it. This sudden shift threw him off.

"Captain must be planning something big," Roelki muttered. "Or the Navy is."

"Either way, if he says jump, we jump."

Meanwhile, far away in Dressrosa—

The members of CP0 had arrived.

"Doflamingo," the lead agent said, handing him an envelope, "this is a mission from the World Government."

"Oh?" Doflamingo chuckled, taking the envelope. "How rare. The great World Government actually needs help from a lowly Shichibukai like me? Fufufufu..."

He opened the envelope and skimmed the contents. As he read, a twisted smile curled across his face.

"This plan... it reeks of Celestial Dragon filth..."

The mission was simple—kill Gekko Moria.

After being defeated by Tendo Pain while allied with Blackbeard, Moria had become a disgrace. The World Government no longer considered him worthy of the Shichibukai title.

But they couldn't take him out directly—doing so would stir unrest among the other Warlords.

So they turned to Doflamingo to handle it for them.

Once Moria was dead, they could quietly replace him with someone new. Someone they'd already picked out.

Typical World Government move.

Poor Moria... he had no idea what was coming.
