Chapter 1502

Chapter 1467: An Email from the ASC! (Two-in-One)

Sea Star Mainland. The First Half of the Grand Line, Whiskey Peak Island.

Following the conclusion of the 'Second Multiverse Top 100 Power Contest', the Adventurer's Guild Headquarters here did not become relaxed; instead, it became even busier.

This was because a large number of men and women who believed they possessed strength came daily to register as Adventurers.

Fortunately, the Adventurer's Guild branches established by Shanks, Morgan William, Benn Beckman, and Uunan in the Four Seas had been officially set up. This successfully attracted a large number of people from those Sea Areas; otherwise, the Headquarters would definitely be overcrowded.

Despite this, Whiskey Peak Island was still teeming with people, and outside the island, sails filled the sea like clouds.

As for Uunan, after Tesoro found Doflamingo, the latter readily gave him the position of South Blue Branch President.

Doflamingo didn't care about his Minister of Propaganda position, but he greatly valued his Shichibukai identity, so he was willing to give the 'Golden Emperor' some face.

Of course, Uunan himself was also strong. He was also the third place winner of the First Multiverse Top 100 Power Contest, so he had the qualifications.

As for the matter of being inexplicably 'eliminated' in the Second Multiverse Top 100 Power Contest, those who knew the inside story dared not speak, and those who didn't, even if surprised, would at most engage in idle chatter, which couldn't affect anything at all.

The only interlude was Uunan stating he wanted to stay in the East Blue, and even suggested a match against Morgan William, with the loser going to the South Blue.

But who knew that before Morgan William could say anything, Doflamingo directly refused.

The reason was that William's appointment had been confirmed and would not be easily changed in a short time. Furthermore, the appointments of high-ranking officials in the Adventurer's Guild were decided by him. There was no room for negotiation, let alone the authority to choose arbitrarily.

Doflamingo's attitude was very strong. He was willing to give Tesoro face, but not Uunan!

What if he was a Golden Great Swordsman? Just tell me, do you want this position of South Blue Branch President or not!

Seeing this, Uunan agreed. Otherwise, he would have to follow Tesoro's idea and go to the recently built 'Golden Emperor Sea Entertainment City' to oversee things.

Although that job would be more free, relaxed, and even involve living a life of luxury and indulgence every day.

But after careful consideration, Uunan still wanted to join the Adventurer's Guild.

Tesoro was a bit reluctant at first. But after thinking it over, he felt it wasn't bad to establish a foothold in the Adventurer's Guild. Perhaps it could be useful in the future?

That's why he personally contacted Doflamingo to get a Branch President position for Uunan. It was quite a coincidence; if he hadn't made that call, Doflamingo had planned to let Diamante be in charge of the South Blue branch.

But the current result was also good; the Adventurer's Guild gained another powerhouse. As for Uunan being Tesoro's subordinate, Doflamingo didn't care much. Doflamingo was confident he could control him and prevent him from making waves.

"What is this..." In the President's Office, a Star Den Den Mushi projected a high-definition holographic image onto the desk. Doflamingo suddenly received an official email from the World Government. After opening it, his gaze was drawn to the unit name in the 'Sender' field. It read: "Interdimensional Strategy Attack Defense and Logistics Support Committee Staff Department".

"Fufufufufu~, interesting. What does this 'ASC' want with me?" Doflamingo chuckled to himself.

The Adventurer's Guild and the Otherworld Strategy Committee had some interaction, but the relationship wasn't deep.

Currently, the main activity range for Adventurers accepting and completing Missions was the Sea Star Mainland, Titan World, Empire Arms World, and Familiar of Zero World. This was because these Four Worlds had more supernatural phenomena.

Worlds like Ninja World and Beast God World were in a State of War, and ordinary Adventurers were temporarily not allowed to travel there. Only Adventurers with a 'Star Gate Pass' could enter after strict inspection.

But when Doflamingo finished reading the email content, he was astonished. It said that they were invited to dispatch Adventurers with Combat Power at the Rear Admiral Level or higher to participate in a Military Operation against the Claymore World, with the main targets being the Dragon Descendants of the Roman Empire and the Yoma Dragon itself.

It also included intelligence on the Awakened Beings, Dragon Descendants, and Yoma Dragon, such as their origin, abilities, quantity, strength, intelligence level, Yoki Power characteristics, and so on.

The email also stated that if this cooperation went smoothly, the 'ASC' would consider prioritizing inviting the Adventurer's Guild to participate in the future New World Conquest Process.

Doflamingo was somewhat surprised. At the same time, he keenly noticed that the World Government intended to shift the main body responsible for investigating intelligence in the New World from the Sea Ninja Village to the Otherworld Strategy Committee.

This was likely related to the Sea Ninja Village dedicating too much strength to the Ninja World this time. It made them realize they couldn't rely too heavily on ninjas.

And the Otherworld Strategy Committee planned to invite these semi-official, semi-civilian supernatural organizations and associations for help. It could be considered a test.

"Adventurers with Rear Admiral level combat power or higher, that's quite a high requirement..."

Doflamingo, dressed in a well-fitting red suit, sat in his chair, deep in thought. He was quickly scanning through the list of Adventurers with decent strength in his mind.

Rear Admiral level combat power was roughly equivalent to Gold Rank or higher. And they had to be the kind of Adventurers who were very skilled in combat.

After all, an Adventurer's Level wasn't solely based on strength. It was also related to the number and Level of Missions they completed.

"Right, Duelists are also members of our Adventurer's Guild..." Doflamingo casually swiped his hand in front of him. He quickly brought up the list of Adventurers and Duelists who were Gold Rank or higher.

The number was really small, less than twenty people, and most were Gold Rank. There was only one Platinum Rank, Kyros.

After all, this was just the beginning; there weren't many Adventurers and Duelists above Platinum Rank yet.

"Kyros is decent, but leading a squad seems a bit beyond him..." Doflamingo mused inwardly.

He even considered whether he should go himself to see this Yoma Dragon. But if the Presidents of the other Associations invited by the 'ASC' didn't go, wouldn't he look quite awkward? Giving people the impression that their Adventurer's Guild didn't have other powerhouses?

This was also the problem Joseph, the President of the Mage Association Headquarters, located in the airspace directly above Reverse Mountain, was considering.

He had also received the email from the Otherworld Strategy Committee. But the awkward part was that most of their Mages had either gone to the Familiar of Zero World to 'collect' Dragon Blood, or gone to the Ninja World to help enchant ammunition for the Star Realm Army.

The remaining ones were basically Scholar-type Mages who were more skilled in theoretical research and manufacturing Magic Items.

So Joseph also considered whether he should make a move personally. Having mastered some Void Magic and the Four Great Elemental Spirits, as well as the Rondell Magic System, his current strength was indeed extraordinary, absolutely an S-Rank Mage without any exaggeration.

The key lay in his identity. Having been a King, he didn't particularly like making a move personally. He preferred to let his subordinates charge into battle and fight to the death for him.

"Hmm, let's have that Pontiff go. I remember his Familiar is just suitable for dealing with creatures like dragons..." Joseph chuckled lightly, rubbing his chin, then looked at the beautiful secretary standing beside him.

"Sheffield." "Contact the Brimir Religion of the Albion Kingdom. I want to have an online meeting with His Majesty Vittorio. Set the time for one hour from now."

"Yes, Master!" To Sheffield, Joseph was both her President and her Master.

The New World. Inside the Shogun Castle in the Flower Capital of Wano Island.

Mihawk, as the Master of the Sword Forging Guild, was also discussing this matter with Gion and Yakou Tsukahara at this time.

Both were Masters of the Sword Forging Guild, equivalent to the position of Vice President.

The first person to see the 'ASC email' this time was Gion. This was because she was responsible for managing the daily affairs of the Sword Forging Guild.

Mihawk, on the other hand, spent his days researching swordsmanship with Yakou Tsukahara, the 'God and Sword Saint'.

It was worth mentioning that Yakou Tsukahara had injected the Familiar of Zero Spirit Lifespan Serum and possessed a lifespan of over two hundred years. Therefore, his appearance had returned to youth, transforming from the elderly man he was before into a middle-aged man in his prime age. The recovery of his Blood Aura naturally also led to an improvement in his strength.

According to Mihawk's evaluation, he could already be considered a true Sea Star Great Swordsman, and with Haki, he would be more than qualified to be an Admiral in the Military!

"How about This Old Man leads a team to take a look?" Yakou Tsukahara said softly, a look of eagerness flashing in his eyes.

Thanks to his good granddaughter, having returned to youth, he also wanted to exchange blows with Otherworld Monsters.

"Old Master Yami, according to the intelligence provided by the 'ASC', that Yoma Dragon likely possesses extremely strong Flesh and Blood Regeneration Ability. A Pure Swordsman would find it difficult to cause actual damage..." Gion kindly reminded him.

"Isn't that even better? I can cut it a few more times!" Yakou Tsukahara laughed.

"In that case, you go. Also, take Yajime Hime, Muichiro Tokito, and Taeko with you for some experience." Mihawk saw that the other party was so interested and gave the order.

And the three people he mentioned were the most talented youths in the Sword Forging Guild at the moment.

Yajime Hime needed no further explanation. Muichiro Tokito originated from the Demon Slayer World and had served as the 'Mist Hashira' of the Demon Slayer Corps while still a minor. He was also a descendant of 'Kokushibo', Tsugikuni Michikatsu.

He now served as the Hall Master of the Sword Forging Hall in Seymour City, Zone RL0011 of the Red Line Continent. Children from the Public School would go to him after school to practice swordsmanship, similar to a Kendo Cram School.

Of course, there were also adults seeking to improve their swordsmanship skill who came to him for guidance and learning.

Now that Sea Star people had plenty to eat and wear, and the World Government was constantly in a State of War, everyone sought strength.

And swordsmanship was considered the lowest barrier to entry and a choice that allowed one to come into contact with Supernatural Power.

After all, 'Demon Slayer Breathing Style' and 'Basic Swordsmanship' had already been introduced as Physical Education Courses within the school.

Of course, there were also 'Basic Taijutsu', 'Basic Archery', and tennis classes for the children to relax and enjoy.

As for Taeko, like Yakou Tsukahara and Yajime Hime, she came from the Empire Arms World. However, she was from the Qin Empire, and even a member of the 'Oarberg Special Forces'.

Her sword talent could be said to be second only to Akame and Yajime Hime. After joining the Sword Forging Guild, Taeko's Swordsmanship Realm improved very quickly. Not long ago, she successfully reached the level of a Seventh Dan Sword Master.

However, compared to Muichiro Tokito, she was still slightly behind. He was only nineteen this year but was already a Seventh Dan Sword Master. It was estimated that he would reach the level of an Eighth Dan Great Swordsman in just a few years...

"Understood!" Yakou Tsukahara immediately responded respectfully to Mihawk, who was much younger than himself. This was not only due to their positions but also due to strength.

Thus, an email from the Interdimensional Strategy Attack Defense and Logistics Support Committee Staff Department mobilized the three major Associations of the Sea Star Mainland.

This was precisely Kaze Fufeng's objective. He wanted to gather the strength of the Sea Ninja Village, the Adventurer's Guild, the Sword Forging Guild, and the Mage Association.

To overwhelmingly defeat the Yoma Dragon and Dragon Descendants in the Claymore World.

Currently, the feedback from all sides was very good. The next day, he saw the list of participants recommended by the four organizations and their detailed information in his office.

The more Minister Fufeng read, the more delighted he became. At the same time, he felt proud of himself for thinking of such a genius method.

Next, they would form teams based on the abilities that these people on the list were skilled at. After all, it was impossible for a squad to consist entirely of swordsmen.

But that was the job of his subordinates.

【Purururu, Purururu】Suddenly, the Den Den Mushi at the corner of the office desk made a sound.

Minister Fufeng looked over and saw it was his private Den Den Mushi. Could it be a call from his family?

Minister Fufeng casually picked up the handset to answer: "Hello?"

"Hello, Minister Kaze Fufeng, I am Dean Isaac, formerly of the Truth Alchemy Academy in the Alchemy Kingdom of the Empire Arms World."

"Hmm?" Minister Fufeng raised an eyebrow, thinking to himself: "That must be the Stigma Alchemist. But what does he want with me, and how did he get this phone number?" He immediately smiled very kindly and said: "Hello, hello. I have long heard of the name of the Stigma Alchemist. I am very happy to receive your call. May I ask if there is anything?"

"I got the number through Principal Kong Ming of Academy City." Dean Isaac on the other end first explained, then stated the reason for the call.

"I have resigned as the Dean of the Truth Alchemy Academy and, with the permission of the World Government, have established the Alchemist Association on the Sea Star Mainland, personally serving as the first President."

"Oh—, congratulations then. Welcome to settle down on the Sea Star Mainland!" Minister Fufeng understood Isaac's intentions somewhat after hearing this.

Indeed.

"I heard that your side has sent official emails to organizations such as the Adventurer's Guild and the Mage Association, inviting them to dispatch experts to participate in the Conquest Operation against the Claymore World... So I wanted to offer my services and see if you could give us Alchemists an opportunity?"

Isaac's words on the phone were very humble, even respectful. For a Stigma Alchemist who was world-renowned in his own country and even across the Empire Arms World, this was something he hadn't experienced in decades.

In the Alchemy Kingdom, if he had any idea, he would directly contact the King himself. And the King himself would often give it the greatest importance and the highest treatment.

But now he was facing the Vice Chairman of the Otherworld Strategy Committee and Chief of Staff. Even a dignified Stigma Alchemist had to be careful with his tone and wording.

Actually, Isaac had the authority to contact Im directly. But he dared not disturb the other party for such a triviality.

"Aren't Alchemists said to be not good at combat?" Minister Fufeng asked doubtfully.

The general understanding of Alchemists among World Government Officials now was that they were more suitable for scientific research and logistics.

"Most Alchemists are indeed like that, but there are also some Alchemists who are very enthusiastic about combat and diligently train their physical ability and skills..."

"Moreover, we possess the Ability of 'Matter Decomposition'. Whether it's lethality or destructive power, it is not inferior to other Supernatural Professions."

President Isaac patiently explained to Minister Kaze Fufeng.

"Hmm..." Minister Fufeng pondered for a moment before saying: "You should know that this target is very dangerous. The evaluated Combat Power Level is generally Colonel, or even above Rear Admiral level. Do you intend to make a move personally?"

He felt that if this Stigma Alchemist made a move, perhaps there would be no need to find others.

"If you agree to let us participate, This Old Man can go and take a look. If an uncontrollable situation truly arises, I will naturally step in to help..."

Minister Fufeng's eyes lit up. Previously, Doflamingo, Mihawk, and Joseph had indicated they would not come personally. Now, having a Big Shot willing to watch over secretly was an extra assurance.

"Alright, thank you to the Alchemist Association for your support of our Otherworld Strategy Committee!"
