The Alternatives of the Tianlong Family

However, he still couldn't be sure how the Five Elders would decide.

“Alright,” Uchiha Madara nodded.

"May I ask, Bernard Issa, what is the purpose of your departure?" the CP0 leader suddenly asked, bowing.

"Do I need to report to you about what I do? Do you think your status is above mine, or your strength is above mine?" Is said coldly.

“No, to ensure your safety, we must understand your purpose so that we can better protect you,” the CP0 leader explained.

"Stop with the formalities, I know what your purpose is." Is didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.

Upon hearing this, the CP0 leader straightened up, his face calm, and said in a heavy tone, "Bernard Issa, you are strong, and your subordinates are strong, but if you betray the World Government, you... will definitely regret it."

"If I wanted to rebel, do you think you'd still be alive and talking to me right now?" Is sneered disdainfully.

"I hope you don't have such thoughts," the CP0 leader said coldly.

"Is this the tone you use to talk to Celestial Dragons?"

“I’m sorry, Bernard Issaint.”

"Is anyone injured?" Is ignored him and instead turned his attention to Hashirama Senju and the others, asking.

“These people are not worthy of hurting me,” Acunorokia said dismissively.

If they hadn't been kept here on Is's orders instead of being killed, they could have killed at least a few of these CP0 members.

"We're not injured," Retsu Unohana and the others shook their heads.

"That's good." Is nodded upon hearing this.

He wouldn't easily let CP0 off the hook if anyone around him got hurt, but thankfully, after a battle, none of his people were injured.

"Are you leaving, Bernard Issain?" the CP0 leader asked.

"Let's go."

Is has achieved his goal in coming to the North Sea. It's a bit of a shame that he didn't get a single character card, but he should be able to upgrade his digging level next time he digs.

Who knows what kind of good stuff might be unearthed if the excavation level is upgraded to the next tier?

The center of the Gatobe Palace has been almost completely destroyed by Hashirama Senju and his men.

The king and queen were unharmed, but they were terrified.

The group boarded a naval warship and left the North Sea.

Afterwards, Is used his Celestial Dragon privileges to send Beli to the Gatobe Kingdom so they could repair the damage caused by the battle.

A few days later

…………

Holy Land Marie Gioia.

Upon returning to Mary Geoise, the CP0 organization informed the Five Elders of the conflict that had occurred that day.

And on that same day, a news story that shocked the world also emerged.

The Holy Land of Mary Geoise, the backyard of Is Castle.

Upon returning home, Is began training, but at that moment, Rozminian rushed into the backyard with a somewhat flustered expression and shouted.

"Owner!"

"what happened?"

Is turned his head and saw Rozminian standing at the door, asking in confusion.

"Master, have you read today's newspaper?" Rosminian asked somewhat nervously.

Chapter 161

"Not yet," Is replied, shaking his head.

After returning to Mary Geoise, he went back to his backyard to start training and naturally paid no attention to the newspapers.

“Master, take a look at today’s newspaper.” Rozminian handed the newspaper to Is.

"Has something interesting happened?" Is asked, taking the newspaper from Rozminian.

"Bernard Is betrayed the World Government!"

As he unfolded the newspaper, Is read the headline aloud to himself.

To be honest, Is was a little confused when he first opened the newspaper, but he still continued reading.

The newspaper clearly stated that Is had thoughts of rebelling against the World Government, and that the person who released the news was none other than Bondiwald.

"So this is the great gift you were talking about, Bondiwald!" Is murmured to himself, looking at the newspaper in his hand.

When he met Bondiwald in the country of Gatoberre, Is had verbally provoked him.

But to his surprise, the other party thought it was his ambition and even released a news article.

This actually surprised him.

To be honest, Isaiah has no interest in dominating the world, but if he were 100% certain that he could dominate the world, then he might have such thoughts.

After all, he suffered no losses after dominating the world.

However, he will not rebel for now, since the Celestial Dragons' position is still very comfortable.

But the Five Elders began to be wary of him, because his power had become strong enough.

The powerful individuals surrounding him are almost stronger than all the high-ranking combatants of the Navy Headquarters combined.

Is didn't pay attention to the news and continued training. The key to this kind of news was how the Five Elders would decide.

…………

In the highest sanctuary of Mary Geoise.

The five elders stared solemnly at the newspaper in their hands.

"What are your thoughts on the latest news about Is?" the bald old man asked with a grave expression.

"This news was released by Bondiwald, so it's inevitable that it might be intended to sow discord," the old man holding a sword said, expressing his opinion.

“However, Is only went to the North Sea country of Gatoberel a few days ago. In the royal palace, Is had his men stop the CP0 organization. Where was Is during that time? Why did Bondiwald release such news today?” One of the Five Elders pondered for a moment and voiced his question.

"Could it be that while Is's men were holding off the CP0, Is secretly went to meet with Bondiwald?"

One of the Five Elders realized a terrible fact and exclaimed in horror.

Only if the two had met in North Sea would Bondiwald release such news.

"You mean the two of them are in a cooperative relationship? Could it be that Is has already obtained the blueprints for the Hades warship?"

"But if the two of them are in a cooperative relationship, why would Bondiwald release such a news article, arousing our suspicion?"

What exactly is the relationship between the two of them?

No matter how hard the Five Elders thought about it, they felt that something was wrong.

They dared not draw any conclusions, after all, this was a matter of great importance.

“Is is about to slip out of our control…” one of the Five Elders sighed helplessly.

They have always wanted to promote Is to the position, and the position has long been reserved for Is, but Is's recent actions have aroused their suspicion.

They didn't know what Yis's purpose was in going to the North Sea, or where Yis had gone during the time he had diverted the CP0 organization.

“This matter is of great importance. We should consult Lord Im. We won’t be able to reach a conclusion through discussion,” suggested one of the Five Elders.

"agree!"

The other four members of the Five Elders also agreed to the proposal.

……

The corridor outside Pangu City.

"Tap tap tap!!!"

Several of the Five Elders stepped into the area, and a series of crisp footsteps echoed down the corridor.

The group arrived at the imposing gate, hesitated for a moment, but still pushed it open.

"Kakakaka!!!"

The door was pushed open, and the Five Elders went inside.

Upon hearing the sound of the door being pushed open, Im slowly opened his eagle-like eyes.

"The Five Elders have come to pay their respects to Lord Im!"

The five elders arrived at the center of the hall, knelt on one knee, and spoke in a loud voice that resounded throughout the entire hall.

"Are you trying to talk about Is?" Im asked calmly, resting his chin on his hand.

The five elders exchanged glances, genuinely surprised by Im's words. The bald old man remained silent for a moment before speaking: "What is Lord Im's opinion of Is?"

“Is is a valuable asset, but only if he works for our World Government.”

Im also admires Is somewhat, and may even make him one of the Six Elders in the future, but it all depends on Is's willingness.

"Bondiwald has released a statement saying that Is wants to rebel against our World Government. What is Lord Im's opinion on this?" the bald old man pressed.

“Is is someone you trained, and you ask me what I think about this?” Im sneered.

As Im finished speaking, the Five Elders couldn't help but shudder.

“Is has gradually slipped out of our control over Lord Im,” one of the Five Elders said, forcing a smile.

Chapter 162

"Are you trying to force me to treat you like trash?"

Im's emotionless words reached the ears of the Five Elders.

Their heads were pressed to the ground, and they looked somewhat nervous.

"As I said before, Is is a double-edged sword; it could bring us good or it could destroy us. The key is how we handle it."

"Lord Im means..."

"I don't know his purpose in going to the North Sea, but if he wants to betray our World Government, he needs the blueprints for the Pluton battleship. If he wants them, let him go and steal them."
