The government agents on duty aboard the ship noticed Momomi and her subordinates stepping onto the deck.
Relieved of their suspicions, they silently pitied the man who had offended Momomi.
Since he didn't come out with them, he must have been dealt with.
Sensing the gazes upon him, Noir smirked inwardly.
The Mimic-Mimic Fruit's abilities weren't easily seen through.
With Momomi leading the way, Noir's actions became much smoother.
He quickly located the highest-ranking officer on Cretin's ship.
Using Momomi authority, Noir easily approached the officer and copied his appearance.
With Blueno's Door-Door Fruit providing convenient shortcuts, Noir moved from ship to ship, steadily making his way towards the lead vessel.
Navigating the intricate process, Noir impersonated one government official after another, finally reaching the surveillance room.
His face grim, Noir entered the room. The plan had seemed exciting at first, but carrying it out was proving to be both tedious and troublesome.
He longed for the simplicity of the East Blue, where he could stand with a sword and plunder any ship within sight.
Currently disguised as a surveillance officer, Noir surveyed the room and its personnel.
The large room was filled with people monitoring the Transponder Snails, along with numerous Den Den Mushi for communication. It would be difficult for an ordinary person to quickly subdue them all.
But for Noir, it was a simple matter of unleashing his Conqueror's Haki.
Even if a few strong individuals resisted, a couple of punches would settle the matter.
After all this time, Noir had honed his control over his strength to a fine degree.
Moreover, Momomi had used her Silent-Silent Fruit to create a soundproof barrier around the room, ensuring that no one outside could hear a thing.
Noir focused, a sinister glint in his dark eyes. Just as he was about to unleash his Haki, a voice interrupted him.
"Saint Rolviff, please come this way."
Noir quickly suppressed his Haki, looking towards the entrance in surprise.
Saint? Another Celestial Dragon?
A portly man with a bubble helmet swaggered into the room, followed by a group of fawning subordinates.
Rolviff patted his belly, his eyes sweeping arrogantly over the surveillance images. "Is this all there is?"
"The offerings from these inferior kingdoms are getting worse and worse."
A subordinate brought over a plush armchair, his voice dripping with flattery. "Your esteemed status, Master, naturally deserves far more than these paltry offerings."
Rolviff sprawled lazily in the chair. "Before we reach Mary Geoise, let's pick out some interesting toys."
Noir raised an eyebrow. He claimed to despise the Heavenly Tribute, yet here he was, trying to snatch the best items before the other Celestial Dragons?
Typical of a self-proclaimed noble Celestial Dragon…
As Rolviff lounged comfortably, he noticed someone approaching. He frowned. "You, trash! What do you want?"
Noir rubbed his neck, a smile playing on his lips. "I thought this trip would be uneventful, but it seems I've stumbled upon a pleasant surprise."
Rolviff chubby face flushed with anger. "You lowly scum! What are you talking about?!"
The subordinates in the room rushed to surround Rolviff, glaring at Noir with suspicion.
Noir's smile widened as a terrifying aura erupted from him.
A fierce wave of red energy surged outwards, the intense pressure contained within the room.
The subordinates were swept off their feet, foaming at the mouth, and collapsed to the ground in an instant.
A few resilient men remained standing beside the Celestial Dragon. Noir, feeling generous, walked over and finished them off with his sword.
In the blink of an eye, everyone was down. Rolviff, his nose dripping, stared blankly, his mind unable to process what had just happened. "Eh…"
Noir pulled out a small Baby Den Den Mushi from his pocket and tapped it gently.
This was their prearranged signal. Momomi, upon receiving Noir's signal, would initiate their plan.
His task complete, Noir sat down with a cheerful smile in front of Rolviff. "Tell me, what are the Celestial Dragons doing on this fleet?"
Despite his subordinates being incapacitated, Rolviff conceit remained undiminished. "Who are you? How dare you sneak into the Heavenly Tribute convoy?"
"I am a descendant of God! I'll have you executed, you filthy commoner!"
Noir wasn't in the mood for his nonsense. He raised his hand and slapped Rolviff across the face.
The Celestial Dragon's bubble helmet shattered. His obese body spun in the air several times before crashing to the floor.
Descendant of God? Some kimchi-loving village also claims to be descendants of the sun, but they're still just a bunch of narrow-minded…
Rolviff face swelled up. He pointed at Noir, his voice trembling with rage. "You dare hit me! I'll have a Marine Admiral arrest you!"
Without hesitation, Noir delivered another punch, then grabbed Rolviff by the throat, his voice dangerously low. "If you utter another word, I'll rip your tongue out."
Rolviff finally grasped the gravity of the situation. Tears of humiliation streamed down his face as he clutched his cheek.
"Why are you here? Celestial Dragons aren't supposed to participate in the Heavenly Tribute escort."
Rolviff whimpered, "I was originally taking a different route back to Mary Geoise, but I heard they were transporting the Heavenly Tribute, so I decided to have some fun..."
Noir frowned. "You came all this way just for fun?"
"I…"
Rolviff hesitated, clearly hiding something. Noir noticed he was clutching his pocket tightly.
"What are you hiding?" Noir kicked the fat man over and rummaged through his pockets, finding a large map.
Noir's jaw dropped. It was a map of Mary Geoise?!
"Why would a Celestial Dragon carry this around?" Noir asked, his eyes narrowed in suspicion.
Rolviff face crumpled. "It wasn't my choice. Someone forced me to take it."
"I was buying slaves when a group of thieves stole this map and tried to escape. My subordinates chased them off, and I ended up with the map."
"My father called and told me it was crucial, that I should personally bring it back to him at Mary Geoise."
Noir stroked his chin, skeptical. "They trust you with this, a Celestial Dragon like you? No CP0 escort or anything?"
Rolviff trembled, pointing at the bodies of the men Noir had finished off. "They were the government agents escorting me."
Noir: …
It seemed the Revolutionary Army had likely stolen the map. The attack on the Heavenly Tribute might have been a diversion to cover their operation.
He hadn't expected this Celestial Dragon to be so foolish, practically delivering himself to the enemy.
