[A Few Days Later, Marine Headquarters]
"Master, information has arrived," Moa, dressed in a black secretary uniform and stockings, respectfully walked into Rosse's lounge.
"Go ahead, what good news is there?", Rosse looked up, smiling as he gazed at Moa.
These days in Marine Headquarters, only Moa was by his side, basically fulfilling all the duties of a secretary.
Secretary by day, doing the secretary at night, the two were practically inseparable.
It could be said that all the information he received had passed through Moa's hands.
Even Moa felt that, since Sora and the others were busy at Fish-Man Island, she had already gained Rosse's trust and could handle all the intel for him.
But...
Rosse looked at Moa's happy expression, and a faint smile curled at the corner of his lips.
With more trustworthy people around him, there were so things he didn't need to handle personally anymore, and the intel didn't have to be passed directly to him.
This ti, although he was a chess player, he was also a piece on the board.
If he didn't enter the ga, how could everyone else feel at ease?
The identity of a Celestial Dragon brought him not only the convenience of status, but also hundreds of years of deeply ingrained stereotypes.
Everyone believed that it was impossible for him to treat Gion and the others as people. At best, just as playthings. Even if Sora had the identity of a Celestial Dragon, it couldn't change this point.
But in reality, they could already help him with many things.
"News from Fleet Admiral Kong's side, they have already executed the Buster Call and have now arrived at Punk Hazard, awaiting further instructions from the Five Elders and the World Governnt," As she spoke, Moa paused slightly.
She was very satisfied with her current position. Since Rosse was temporarily in charge of the entire Marine, her status had also risen accordingly, and she could access many confidential reports.
With these secret reports, she could provide more information to Whitebeard and the others.
This ti, she wasn't just doing it for the Revolutionary Army, but also to take her personal revenge.
Her ti at Rosse's side had been filled with humiliation.
Though she didn't appear to be a slaave, she was no different from one.
And in reality, she did bear the Hoof of the Soaring Dragon on her body, right on the small of her back.
Even though she couldn't see it, every ti her back faced Rosse, she could feel the excitent from the man behind her, and she felt even more ashad.
'I will definitely avenge this humiliation!'
"What else?", Rosse tapped the table, signaling Moa to continue, while appreciating her expression.
'She is still too immature.'
'Or rather, too naive.'
If she had ever studied facial control, she would have known just how flawed her expression was right now.
On the surface, her expression seed normal, but the hatred and joy in her eyes were practically overflowing.
Still, it's these little maid types that are the most interesting.
Now that her identity was out in the open, Moa posed no threat to him. Naturally, Rosse wouldn't do anything unnecessary that might bore him.
"Lady Sora and the others are returning to the city. According to the intel received, Lady Otohi used her Devil Fruit power to kill all the frozen rfolk and fish-n on Fish-Man Island," When Moa delivered this information, her voice was slightly hesitant and disbelieving.
She also had a general understanding of the situation on Fish-Man Island.
There were still hundreds of thousands of people left there.
And even though the Marine didn't kill everyone, in the end, it was Otohi who made the move, this surprised her a lot.
From this, it could be seen that Rosse was a devil, even soone as kind as Otohi had been corrupted.
Moa cursed inwardly, but didn't dare show anything on her face.
Recently, she had been eating and drinking well, almost to the point of bursting, and she didn't want that to end.
"Pass this information to the Five Elders. The Marine is getting more and more disobedient, let them knock so heads, and we'll offer them a sweet date on the side," Rosse's calm voice drifted out, making Moa shiver twice.
"Understood!", Moa silently mourned for Kuzan. He was clearly doing the right thing, yet being bullied by these people in power. So pitiful.
But on this matter, she couldn't help much.
And even if she passed the ssage, it probably wouldn't be of any use.
'Wait... maybe it will be useful.'
Moa lowered her head, her eyes twinkling.
'Maybe Kuzan will switch sides.'
"Is there anything else to report?", Rosse clasped his hands, watching Moa with a half-smile.
Scheming right in front of him about the Marine, why did it seem so refreshingly innocent and cute?
He quite liked Moa, all her emotions were written right on her face, so easy to read.
If it were Dragon... forget it. Not pleasing to the eye, couldn't even output any value. If it were Dragon, he'd already be turned into nourishnt for Rosse's power.
"Oh oh, there's one more thing," Moa suddenly looked up, "Just now, the Marine received word that Kaido of Wano has made a move."
There weren't many top-tier pirate powerhouses. There were quite a few A-rank ones, even more than the World Governnt, but S-ranks were few and far between.
Kaido of Wano, Big Mom of Cake Island, both were unquestionably S-rank combatants, marked as such by Rosse himself.
And these two had sothing in common, they had both refused their invitation.
By chance, Big Mom had captured Doflamingo, and top Marine powerhouse Borsalino had already gone to handle it, unlikely to return any ti soon.
For them, that ant one less enemy.
But to not make use of Kaido's power, that would be a waste.
To draw the World Governnt and Marine's attention, they had people disguise themselves as Kaido's crew and start roaming the seas around Wano.
This was Kozuki Oden's idea. In his words, it was to cause Kaido trouble and avenge what Kaido had done in Wano.
"Kaido of Wano, huh... In this ti of turmoil, best not to let him cause any more chaos. I'll send Zephyr and Moria over," Rosse casually issued the order, not even bothering to verify its authenticity.
The truth didn't matter.
In a way, he and Whitebeard were comrades.
The World Governnt was still too strong. Even after diverting so much combat power, Whitebeard and the others were still stretched thin.
If they didn't further weaken the enemy this ti, they'd just have to wait for the child of destiny to start cheating.
Five Elders surrounding one Luffy, and in the end, all of them still got away. That's just what it ant to be the chosen one.
Anyone else on the sea would've been beaten to death.
"I'll make contact right away," Moa was secretly delighted upon hearing two more combatants would be sent away.
This way, Rosse would only have himself and Sakazuki left among the top-tier forces at his disposal.
With their current lineup, maybe they really could take down the Holy Land.
If they really could destroy the Holy Land completely, then the World Governnt would be finished.
"Let Sora know as well," Rosse nodded lightly, looking unconcerned.
He didn't need to make a move personally. With Sora there, she would understand the reason behind him sending Zephyr and Moria.
Once this was resolved, the next step would be his move on Wano.
If you didn't participate in such major events, then what was the point of keeping you around? Better just to turn you into his nourishnt.
