**BOOM!**
A tremendous impact caused the tightly shut Gates of Justice to shudder violently.
This was a crucial facility built by the World Government, located between the three major organizations, and was used to alter the Sea Currents.
Once through the Gates of Justice, one could ride the correct Sea Currents and head straight to their destination.
At the same time, by using the Gates of Justice, one could cross the Red Line, greatly shortening the time it took to reach the New World.
According to the records of the Navy Headquarters, traveling to the New World by using the Gates of Justice was dozens of times faster than the journey across the deep sea, which could take several dozen days.
"Admiral Luo Yu, the Red Line is right behind the Gates of Justice. Isn't it a bit inappropriate to send CP9's highest-ranking officer flying?" Koby said with a wry smile.
His current duty was actually similar to Bogart's on Garp's ship, mainly to help Luo Yu avoid making big mistakes.
Preventing Luo Yu from causing any major disasters.
However, with a single glare, he sent Spandam flying.
Koby didn't know whether it was because Spandam was too weak or if his own skills were lacking, unable to stop him in time.
"Did you see me do anything? I didn't lay a hand on him," Luo Yu adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses, glancing around the deck.
Wherever his gaze fell, everyone quickly turned away.
Spandam's fate was right there for all to see.
They certainly didn't want to be sent flying just by making eye contact.
"Who, who dares to frighten Saint Charlos!"
On the platform, the ships that had been docked there, waiting for the Gates of Justice to open, instantly erupted with a sound like a pig being slaughtered.
Koby and the others' expressions immediately changed, and they hurriedly looked towards the sound.
"It's… it's the flag of the Celestial Dragons, the World Nobles! What are they doing here!" Hina became tense.
From the very first day of joining the Marines, there was a dedicated class in the Marine school that taught about the existence of the Celestial Dragons.
These were the descendants of 19 of the 20 kings who formed the World Government 800 years ago. They considered themselves the descendants of the creator and enjoyed immense privileges.
If they were offended, even Marine admirals or CP0 would have to be dispatched to protect them.
It could be said that if ordinary people encountered a Celestial Dragon, it would be a nightmare.
Luo Yu had just sent Spandam flying. Wouldn't this attract the Celestial Dragons at a time like this?
Spandam, slammed onto the platform, his body aching all over, revealed a face full of delight.
He had been pondering how to regain face.
The appearance of the Celestial Dragons was a godsend.
"Someone, tie up Spandam. Let him sort out his own problem of offending the Celestial Dragons!" Luo Yu patted the dust off his body and stood up.
The people in the arena were instantly dumbfounded.
Spandam was no exception.
He was the victim!
Still scheming how to turn the tables, they hadn't anticipated Luo Yu speaking first.
Most importantly, after witnessing Luo Yu's strength firsthand, even Jabura and the others from CP9 didn't dare to utter a sound at this juncture.
They could only stand by and watch, their eyes wide.
"You are the Navy's new Fourth Admiral?"
A muffled voice suddenly rang out.
Soon, everyone saw a Celestial Dragon emerge from the crowd on the platform, dragging a wad of snot and wearing a fishbowl helmet.
If Luo Yu remembered correctly, this guy should be Saint Charlos, the Celestial Dragon who was taught a lesson by Monkey D. Luffy in the original story.
He hadn't expected to meet him here.
This is the world's biggest troublemaker!
"Saint Charlos, he is indeed the Navy's Fourth Admiral, Taotie Luo Yu, who has been making waves on the sea recently."
A figure in a white robe and a mask, slightly short in stature, stepped out from behind Saint Charlos.
Looking at the attire, Luo Yu was surprised once again.
Sure enough, there would always be bigger buffoons around these buffoons.
He hadn't expected that the Celestial Dragons would be accompanied by CP0.
"Spandam, hurry up and get over here." CP0 glared back.
As the organization that surpasses CP9 and is known as the strongest intelligence agency, CP0 reports directly to the Five Elders.
Even Spandam, the highest-ranking officer of CP9, was completely overshadowed.
Spandam's face turned pale. He hadn't expected to encounter the most mysterious CP0 here.
However, thinking of his father, Spandine, who was also a member, Spandam didn't care about much else. He endured the pain, got up, and quickly went to CP0's side.
"Sir, I apologize. It's this Fourth Admiral who is arrogant and has not only destroyed our Enies Lobby's warships but also repeatedly attacked me. You must uphold justice," Spandam said in a low voice, his face filled with indignation.
CP0 looked at Luo Yu silently, and then snorted coldly, "Spandam, you are truly incompetent. Not only have you lost face, but you've also brought shame to our CP."
"However, this Fourth Admiral of the Navy is indeed as arrogant as the Others say, and likes to do things his own way."
"If Saint Charlos wasn't here, I wouldn't be able to make things difficult for him. Now that the Celestial Dragons are present, I'm afraid he won't be able to get away with it."
Spandam's expression froze, clearly unable to understand what CP0 was up to.
However, as CP0 hurried over to Saint Charlos and whispered something in his ear, Spandam's face lit up with unrestrained joy.
"Admiral Luo Yu, do you think CP0 is up to something?"
Ain said, her expression grim.
"I have a bad feeling about this."
Upon hearing this, Hina and the others nodded in agreement, their faces serious.
The Celestial Dragons were beings they would rather avoid.
Now, they were being targeted with ill intent, leaving them feeling like they were walking on thin ice.
"It's not that they *seem* to have ill intentions; it's practically written on their foreheads," Luo Yu said, taking a swig of his local brew.
"Don't worry, we'll handle whatever comes our way. Let's head ashore and resupply for a bit."
Luo Yu said this, then jumped onto the platform first.
There were many merchant ships around, waiting here after paying their fees.
However, facing the rarely seen Celestial Dragons, they had long since avoided them, not daring to go ashore.
They'd rather miss their departure time than be targeted by the Celestial Dragons.
Now, seeing someone swaggering onto the island right in front of the Celestial Dragons, they were utterly shocked.
