"Ding! Anchoring world coordinates..."
"Ding! World coordinates anchored successfully! Based on the Host's memory retrieval, the current world is 'one piece'. Does the Host wish to begin the Crossing ?"
"Oh, wow! It's this world! This is going to be fun! My treasured possessions finally have a use!"
"Not traversing yet!"
When Zhong Chen saw that the newly discovered world was one piece, one of the three major shonen manga from his previous life, his first thought was that he could finally use the Dimensional Gate sub-gate.
In his previous life, he had always followed one piece.
However, he only followed it up until Doflamingo was defeated, because the subsequent plot became too drawn out, so he gave up on continuing to watch.
He only knew from the internet that a new God's Knights had recently emerged. Thinking of this, Zhong Chen suddenly became curious about one thing.
He wondered if this God's Knights could contend with his Royal Knights.
Thinking of this, Zhong Chen coughed twice loudly:
"Ahem! Everyone, I have something important to announce!"
Hearing Zhong Chen's words, the three people who were arguing simultaneously stopped and looked at him with puzzled expressions.
"Um... I've discovered coordinates to a New World. Anyone want to come along and play?"
"What!!! A Chen, you've discovered world coordinates again! What world is it this time?"
"What, what! Another world?"
Zhong Chen looked at Milim, who was completely bewildered, and could only explain his situation to her.
"Nani! You mean you've all been playing in other worlds before! That's not fair... not fair, I want to go too, I want to go, I want to go!"
Zhong Chen watched Milim roll back and forth on the ground, acting as if she wouldn't get up if she wasn't allowed to go.
He could only say helplessly to this mischievous child:
"I didn't say you couldn't go! If you want to go, then go!"
Hearing this, Milim instantly sprang up with a carp-like flip and said excitedly:
"A Chen! Then it's a deal, you can't go back on your word!"
"Yes, yes, yes, I won't go back on my word!"
Hearing this, Veldora also couldn't sit still and hurriedly leaned close to Zhong Chen, saying:
"Hey, hey, hey! I'm your best friend, you can't leave me behind!"
"Alright, everyone goes, everyone goes, okay! I didn't say I wouldn't take you all," Zhong Chen quickly shouted.
"Hahaha! As expected of my, Storm Dragon Veldora's, best friend!"
Hearing Veldora's words, Zhong Chen didn't bother to respond to him, but instead spoke to Rimuru:
"Oh, right, Rimuru, you should know about this world. It's 'one piece'!"
Upon hearing that the New World was 'one piece', Rimuru's eyes immediately lit up, and he excitedly shouted:
"Really? Then I want to be an island lord! I want to be a king! I want to conquer the world!"
"Eh! Can you be so many things? Then I want to be one too!"
"Hahaha! Then I, the great one, want to be one too!"
Zhong Chen looked at these few individuals who seemed intent on causing chaos and couldn't help but ask:
"Veldora, you and Milim are practically kings already! As for Rimuru, aren't you a king right now!"
Hearing this, Rimuru shook his head with a look that said 'you don't understand' and then said:
"Hmph hmph! A Chen, you just don't get it! I plan to make the Monster Country Federation's name famous in that world!"
"That way, Shizue and the others won't be able to say we're idle anymore. We're not going to play!"
"This is for expanding our territory!"
"Exactly, exactly, it's for expanding our territory!"
"Oh! I see, so that's the explanation. As expected of you, Rimuru!"
Zhong Chen looked at the few people in front of him who could make 'playing' sound so grand.
He felt as if he had been overthinking lately and couldn't keep up with their thought processes.
Speaking of which, wasn't I one of the founders of this organization? Why do I feel like this massive organization is about to outgrow me?
"Ahem! Indeed, I think Rimuru is absolutely right. We are going to expand our territory!"
Just as the group was ambitiously discussing how to gradually develop (where to play) and how to make a name for themselves (how to stir up trouble), a lively loli voice came through:
"Yahoo! Chen Gege! I've come to play with you!"
Hearing the voice, the group turned their heads to look at the newcomer.
They saw Aihara Enju, along with a few familiar little lolis, skipping towards them.
"Chen Gege, Rimuru Onee-chan, Milim Onee-chan, and also Uncle Veldora!"
Hearing the address, Veldora looked at Xiao Meihui with a wronged expression:
"Meihui! Why do I become 'Uncle' when it comes to me! I'm not old at all!"
Looking at the wronged Veldora, Zhong Chen couldn't help but inwardly grumble:
"Good heavens, doesn't he know how old he is?!"
"Thud!"
Everyone present looked towards the sound, only to see Tina, with her golden hair, holding a pillow and lying on the ground, already fast asleep.
"Wow!!! She can just fall asleep like that, how amazing!"
Milim's eyes sparkled as she looked at Tina, who had instantly fallen asleep, her tone filled with obvious admiration. She also wished she had such an ability.
"Uh... Is that something to admire?"
"Alright, since you're here, go change into your swimsuits. You can't swim in your school uniforms, can you!"
Zhong Chen said to the group of little lolis in front of him.
"Yes! *n"
Just as the many little lolis went to change into their swimsuits, Aihara Enju walked nervously to Veldora's side, tugging at his sleeve and quietly asking:
"How is it? Did you bring the goods?"
Hearing this, Veldora's body stiffened. He looked around to confirm there was no danger, then also quietly replied:
"Don't worry! This time, I brought Eromanga Sensei's latest work, guaranteed to be a masterpiece!"
Hearing this, Aihara Enju's eyes lit up, and she said to Veldora with a look of pleasant surprise:
"Wow! As expected of the most famous underground intermediary in the Monster Country Federation, you can even get your hands on such good stuff!"
Hearing this, Veldora immediately puffed out his chest proudly and said to the little loli:
"Of course! I, the great one, have connections everywhere in the entire Monster Country Federation; there's nothing I can't get! Hahaha!"
As he laughed, he pulled out several latest yuri manga from his bosom and secretly handed them to Aihara Enju.
Aihara Enju took the manga, opened one, glanced at it, and then nodded in satisfaction.
She then pulled out a brand new hundred-yuan bill from her pocket and handed it to Veldora.
Incidentally, the currency currently issued throughout the Monster Country Federation is called lime coins.
The banknotes are divided into 1 yuan, 5 yuan, 10 yuan, 50 yuan, and the largest denomination of 100 yuan.
The banknotes feature a blue Slime wearing a straw hat, holding a proportionally scaled doll of Zhong Chen. Yes, the national currency is that whimsical.
It is said that on the day the sample design was released, Lord Chen had threatened to die if he wasn't removed from the banknote, but unfortunately, under the suppression of the crowd, his efforts came to naught.
"Oh my! I didn't expect Lord Veldora to still have stock! This is truly..."
