# Chapter 840: Dragon's Operation
When Dragon and Kuma arrived at Mary Geoise.
The war had already been underway for over an hour.
After all, the proposal to infiltrate Impel Down and steal the Heavenly Tribute was only put forward after the war began.
Meetings took time, and the journey here also took time.
Dragon and Ignis had the same target: the Residential Area of the World Nobles in Mary Geoise.
He had never been to this Area, but he knew its exact location.
When he was a Marine, there were many places in Mary Geoise he was forbidden from entering.
Coupled with the fact that Mary Geoise had many Strongmen protecting it, he didn't dare to act rashly, especially given his identity as a Marine.
If he were discovered, it could implicate the Marines and his father, Garp.
It wasn't until after leaving the Marines that Dragon became completely unrestrained.
He immediately caused quite a stir on the Red Line, which was noticed by the World Government.
The Celestial Dragons' Residential Area was vast.
Ignis and Dragon did not encounter each other.
Moreover, one came from the direction of "Paradise," and the other from the direction of the New World.
The Areas they searched were also different.
Ignis had ample time to search for treasure.
He had internal intelligence about Mary Geoise.
This banquet among the Celestial Dragons would last for about three days.
The magnificent Palace was large enough to accommodate a large number of Celestial Dragons temporarily.
Among them were not a few notables from top tier Families in Mary Geoise.
Most were there as friends or followers of these World Nobles.
Even so, it represented their step onto the peak of the World.
These Celestial Dragons were not foolish; they knew Mary Geoise was not entirely safe, and some were even paying attention to the situation on the Battlefield.
Compared to their own Mansions, the banquet location was undoubtedly safer.
After all, in recent years, various Celestial Dragon Families had suffered heavy losses, and the CP0 Agents didn't have the energy to protect them.
If someone accidentally killed their way to them, they wouldn't even be able to escape.
But when they gathered together, a large amount of guarding forces would also gather together.
This way, they would feel secure and have enough strength to protect them.
After all, with the CP0 Agents and Holy Knights absent, and even the Five Elders not present, this was something unprecedented in the World Government's eight hundred years.
That Celestial Dragon who called for the banquet was definitely a smart person.
However, they didn't expect their homes to be robbed.
If nothing unexpected happened, no one would suddenly return to their Mansions during this period.
Those Celestial Dragons who were already staying in their own Mansions and not participating in the banquet wouldn't deliberately visit others.
Ignis restrained his own aura to the extreme, not letting a single trace leak.
His body floated in the air without making a sound.
After having mostly looted a relatively empty Celestial Dragon Mansion, he continued to enter the phasing state and move on to the next Mansion.
If there were someone there, he would directly skip it.
This person could be a Strongman who might discover him, or a Celestial Dragon.
It was normal for a Mansion to have a large number of maids and servants inside.
However, there were many places they couldn't enter either, especially when the Celestial Dragon and butler were not present.
Ignis believed that the Revolutionary Army would be the first to be exposed.
They did not have Ignis's ability and would find it difficult to take the treasure out silently.
Whether it was Dragon's Hurricane Fruit or Kuma's Paw-Paw Fruit, they would cause quite a stir.
Even though Mary Geoise was incredibly empty now, it was only in terms of Top Tier Combatants and High-Tier Combatants.
The guarding forces of Mary Geoise still could not be underestimated.
The slightest movement could lead to being discovered.
Especially breaking into the core Mansion of a Celestial Dragon Family, the Mansion of the Family Patriarch, carried an even greater risk of exposure.
These Mansions might not be called a Dragon's Pool and Tiger's Den, but they definitely had Strongmen guarding them, as well as Celestial Dragons present.
Ignis did not dare to approach them; he would even leave immediately upon seeing them and go to a different place.
Compared to the Mansions of ordinary Celestial Dragons, some Celestial Dragons with extraordinary status had Mansions that possessed special markings.
Ignis could recognize them at a glance.
Even if Dragon maintained elementalization, as soon as he got close, he would likely be discovered.
Wind represents changes in air currents, and for Strongmen familiar with the environment, they could easily detect the strangeness.
Dragon's body elementalized and infiltrated a Mansion.
Seeing the Slaves hidden Underground, he suppressed the wrath in his heart.
He restrained the thought of releasing them.
This was indeed a very good opportunity.
Mary Geoise was unprecedentedly empty, and a large number of combatants had gathered together to protect the Celestial Dragons.
But doing this also meant that his plan to steal the treasure was completely ruined.
For the sake of the Revolutionary Army, he could only temporarily give up this plan.
Wind would spread, as Dragon's "eye."
Coming this way, Dragon saw more of the World Government's darkness, the endless filth hidden beneath the facade of splendor.
Underground in Mary Geoise, countless Slaves were constantly working.
Dragon discovered quite a bit of treasure, as well as the location of the Celestial Dragons' Treasury.
But where was the Celestial Dragons' Treasury key?
He did not have Ignis's ability to phase directly through the Treasury walls and enter the interior.
He could only use violent means to destroy the Treasury.
In order to take this treasure out and avoid the eyes of others.
Dragon quickly took action, knocking out all these Celestial Dragon servants.
Given the absolute strength difference and without making a sound, this was not a difficult task for Dragon.
Most of those remaining inside the Mansion were ordinary people and simply had no ability to resist against Dragon.
He did not kill these servants.
The Holy Land Guard patrolling outside were divided into squads, and each squad had a cruel hound possessing an astonishing sense of smell.
Once they detected a problem, they would immediately bark loudly.
Dragon was confident his aura would not spread out.
But if someone died, especially if blood was left behind, it would definitely be detected.
Even if they were unconscious, it was enough for him; everyone would sleep for several hours.
They wouldn't wake up early, only later.
The Celestial Dragons' Mansions were large enough that even if some noise was made, it would be hard to hear from outside.
Especially with the strong soundproofing effect.
This was a good thing for Dragon.
Without worries, Dragon first collected the scattered treasure inside the Mansion.
Then he targeted the Celestial Dragons' Treasury.
Intense wind condensed in Dragon's hands, colliding with the incredibly hard Treasury like a cutting machine.
Actually, Dragon did not want to do this, as there was a great risk.
Unfortunately, he could not find the key, and the Hurricane Fruit's ability also made it difficult for the Wind to take physical form.
If he had learned lockpicking, everything would have been much easier.
Boom!
The Celestial Dragons' Treasury were all made using the Great Sea's hardest material, and the protection level was among the highest.
However, no matter how hard, there is a limit, and before true Strongmen, they cannot resist.
A large opening appeared on the Treasury, and the dazzling treasure inside was displayed before Dragon.
Facing the countless treasure, even on Dragon's face, it was hard to hide his excitement.
Strong wind swept up all this treasure and transported it to the empty space outside.
He temporarily could not take this treasure away and could only collect it first.
Once he was about to be discovered, he would send this treasure all at once to Kuma, using Kuma's ability to then send this treasure to the Revolutionary Army's Base Camp.
This was their plan.
