Charlotte Linlin's face was unpredictable.
If it was only Ye Chen, she could consider agreeing, but what Bullet said before made her suspicious. After all, he hadn't even clearly understood Ye Chen's specific situation.
"Can you lure him out? What do you rely on to lure him out, and can you guarantee that only Ye Chen will be greeted in the end?"
"Absolutely guaranteed!" Bullet said without a doubt.
If other people were lured out, adding one or two more of Dilin's members, even if it was the Eight Kings of the underworld, and not just the four remaining kings, the combined forces of the four kings and Charlotte Linlin would not gain any advantage.
After all, Dilin's strength was hard-won and obvious to all. His power was beyond doubt.
"Tell me your method!" Charlotte Linlin said, neither agreeing nor disagreeing. She still wanted to hear what kind of plan the other party had laid out. If she approved, she would then decide whether to join the game.
"Looking at Dilin's goals, they attach great importance to Devil Fruits, and I have already prepared five Devil Fruits here. I plan to let Scar persuade the Swordsmanship Association to open a Swordsmanship Tournament. The ultimate winner will not only receive five Devil Fruits, but also a special Supreme Grade Blade."
Bullet said coldly, his voice carrying a hint of pain.
"Devil Fruit and a special Supreme Grade Blade... Wait a minute, that special Supreme Grade Blade, could it be that one?" Charlotte Linlin suddenly remembered something, and a look of surprise appeared on her face.
"It's that one!" Bullet spat out a mouthful of air and said.
"You guys are really willing to part with it!"
Devil Fruits were expensive, but the power of the Eight Kings of the underworld was enormous, and they could still reluctantly bear the cost.
But that Supreme Grade Blade was different. The preciousness of the Supreme Grade Blade was beyond doubt, and that particular Supreme Grade Blade was especially unique.
That Supreme Grade Blade contained ancient and strange power. In the history of swordsmen, it also had the name of Ghost Blade. When idle swordsmen could not use it.
Bullet also considered that Ye Chen seemed interested in some magical items besides Devil Fruits. After careful thought, he decided to add this sword to the rewards.
"This way, it might really pique that guy's interest... to go to the Swordsmanship Tournament!" Charlotte Linlin fell into deep thought, her face changing unpredictably.
Charlotte Linlin and Ye Chen had a deep-seated hatred. This hatred was completely irreconcilable. She, who was once a ruler of the New World's Four Emperors, had failed against Dilin,
who had just emerged from the sea, and the news of her defeat had also spread. This kind of hatred could not be worn away. If she had more than 50% certainty, Charlotte Linlin would willingly take the risk.
And apparently, Bullet's plan, although it had major flaws, still had a fifty percent success rate.
If, under circumstances where Dilin's pirate group had not yet gathered, she still couldn't defeat Ye Chen alone, then what revenge was there to talk about? It would be better to obediently disband the Big Mom Pirates and then beg for the other party's forgiveness.
"I agree. When you're ready, contact me." Charlotte Linlin said, then hung up the Den Den Mushi.
Although the Den Den Mushi was hung up, Bullet was not angry, his lips curved into a slight, cold smile.
"Very good, such assembled combat power is already considered top-tier in the New World! To deal with that guy, we have a great deal of confidence; it's worth a gamble." A sinister light flickered in Bullet's eyes.
On this point, his view was the same as Charlotte Linlin's.
If, after gathering so many advantages, and the opponent was still alone, they still couldn't resolve the opponent, then it would be better to meekly surrender, offer everything, and beg the other party to spare his life.
After talking with Tyger for a while, Ye Chen silently left Fish-Man Island.
No one knew what Tyger and Ye Chen discussed. It can be said that only those involved would know.
However, after Tyger emerged, his solemn expression carried a hint of joy, clearly indicating that this conversation was a very satisfactory one for him.
Ye Chen sat on top of Slifer the Sky Dragon, and a red glow flickered on top of his head, enveloping his entire body.
And on top of his head, a shimmering light flickered, like the sun in the sky.
He raised his head at this moment, looking at the real light.
The Sun Tree Eve grew on Fish-Man Island, ten thousand meters beneath the sea. Its roots were the source of light and air for Fish-Man Island.
The Sun Tree Eve can transmit sunlight and air to the seabed through its roots, ensuring that day and night on Fish-Man Island and on land remain consistent, guaranteeing that Fish-Man Island has enough oxygen to survive.
The role of Sun Tree Eve is indispensable. For Fish-Man Island, it can be said to be an invaluable treasure.
However, in Ye Chen's eyes, this cluster of light in front of him might be a source of special energy.
"System, can Sun Tree Eve exist as a special energy source?" A strange glow flickered in Ye Chen's eyes, showing great anticipation.
"Yes!"
Ye Chen's lips curved into a smile. Sure enough, it was beyond his expectation. Looking at the shimmering Sun Tree Eve, he stroked his chin, lost in thought.
"Absorb it now... No, not yet. I'll talk about it after that matter is completed, then absorb it! Now is not the most suitable time."
After all, once he absorbed it, Fish-Man Island would collapse.
Ye Chen deeply looked at Sun Tree Eve. Now, absorption did not meet his requirements.
But to be absorbed by him, Sun Tree Eve, in Ye Chen's eyes, already belonged to his private possessions.
"Lord Ye Chen." At this moment, a voice sounded in Ye Chen's mind.
He was not unfamiliar with this voice; it was Doflamingo.
"What do you want from me?"
Doflamingo heard the indifference in Ye Chen's words and didn't care, letting out a laugh.
"Hee hee hee, Lord Ye Chen, I have a piece of news to tell you. I think you'll be very interested."
Ye Chen raised an eyebrow. "Just say it directly, but I hope your words can pique my interest."
"The Swordsmanship Association is preparing to open a Swordsmanship Tournament! And in this Swordsmanship Tournament, perhaps the world's greatest swordsman will appear!"
Speaking of the world's greatest swordsman, Ye Chen couldn't help but think of Mihawk, a swordsman who could duel with the Four Emperors. However, Ye Chen quickly reacted. Mihawk had not yet grown to that terrifying level. There was another world's greatest swordsman.
"If it's purely a Swordsmanship Tournament, I'm afraid it won't pique my interest!" Ye Chen continued to say indifferently.
"Then, leader, what if the prize of the Swordsmanship Tournament is five Devil Fruits and a special Supreme Grade Blade?"
Ye Chen's movements stopped.
