Qin Long and Dale had just finished their new mission, and Reed happened to be on the deck.

"Spice, you're here."

I don't know if Reed will be suspicious, Qin Long tried his best to keep it natural, and saluted a military salute, "Hello sir." ”

In this world, anyone in this world, except for the characters who appeared in the original story, could be a player who traveled back in time, including Reed.

Being transferred to CPX has greatly increased the difficulty of the task for the two, and if they are caught any more tricks, they will definitely lose everything.

Besides, Reed's position is still on the side of the world ZF, so you have to watch out for him.

"You don't need to call me that, now we're all colleagues working at CPX, there's no difference between top and bottom, anyway...... Miss Dale is here too? ”

"The morning breeze is very pleasant, and since I happened to meet Spice and Mr. Reed here, it seems that everyone is in the same place."

Dale was very sophisticated, and his calm response did not reveal any suspicious flaws to Reed.

"I see, but it's a habit of Spai to get up early in the morning to blow the sea breeze, and I'd rather sleep a little longer."

Dale smiled and moved her gaze to Qin Long, "In this case, then the real match with me may be Mr. Spice." ”

Reed thought there was something wrong with the two, and said half-jokingly, "I said you two should be moderate, it's taboo for a department like ours to engage in office love, if it's too intimate and hurts me, a single uncle, in the future, I'll report it to the top!" ”

Qin Long couldn't understand how Dale could misunderstand Reed with one look, "That, we're not ......"

"Alright, alright! My light bulb will flash first, you two continue to blow the sea breeze side by side~"

After seeing Reed leave, the two of them were relieved.

But Dale seemed a little unhappy, "Hey, why are you trying to explain?" Wouldn't it be nice to be mistaken for a couple, so that we wouldn't be suspicious when we talked privately like this. ”

Qin Long scratched his hair, "What do you say, I feel uncomfortable being buttoned up with a hat, so I have to take it off." ”

Dale shook her face, "Oh? Is it uncomfortable to be a couple with me, it's really a typical virgin reaction. ”

She left after saying a few words, leaving Qin Long breathless.

Damn, what a tough woman.

Although I could see her character from the beginning, I didn't expect her mouth to be so poisonous.

After seeing Dale's gentle side, Qin Long still fantasized about being able to deal with her, and now it seems that the days of becoming teammates with her are bearable.

……

The golden earth slowly reflects on the other side of the horizon, and it is about to reach the desert kingdom of Alabastan.

Before landing, all the CPX members of the ship gathered in the conference room, where Qin Long and Dale saw an unexpected face.

A grim expression, sickle-shaped eyebrows, and the white dove standing on the shoulder.

"I'm Rob Lucci, a former CP9 and now the captain of CPX."

Sure enough, the man sitting in the chief seat was Lu Qi.

The current timeline is a year after the top war, that is, when the Straw Hats are scattering and upgrading their cultivation in various places.

Reed, who was in the seat of the meeting, felt a little wrong when he heard the name of Luqi, "Wait...... Could it be the same Lucci who was involved in last year's Justice Island incident? I've heard rumors that you're not wanted by the Navy, why are you here as a captain now? ”

Reed is really open-mouthed, and he actually asks such a straightforward question.

"You don't have to worry about that." Lu Qi replied with an unchanged face, "Those with strength will eventually have a chance to prove themselves, and I will make up for my past mistakes in this mission and not let it happen a second time." ”

In the original work, Lu Qi was promoted to CP0 two years later, and I didn't know what he had done in the past two years, but it turned out that he was going to be the head of CPX.

Having said that having such a terrifying captain is quite stressful for Qin Long and Dale.

It's best to find a way to 'get' this boss before the dragon slaying project officially begins.

Of course, it doesn't have to be to kill him, just to gain his trust.

Later, Lu Qi explained the mission that CPX carried out in the Kingdom of Alabastan.

Alabastan's royal family is rumored to be opposed to the new slavery system and secretly supports the activities of the Revolutionary Army, so the CPX was sent to search for clues because of the suspicion that this place might be related to the disappearance of Daniel Saint.

Luci divided the entire group into teams to conduct separate surveys across Alabastan.

When they arrived at Qin Long and Dale, Lu Qi gave them an ugly look.

"Are you two the ones who failed to protect their masters in the case of the disappearance of the Celestial Dragons?"

Qin Long, didn't you also ask Luffy to come here after being demoted, and you still have the face to put on a show?

"yes, we're all wrongdoers, so why don't we work together to make amends, right, Captain Luki?"

Lu Qi frowned slightly, "The area you are in charge of is Eruma, set off immediately." ”

Lu Qi didn't trust the two of them in the first place, and he was poked by Qin Long, so he deliberately sent them to a remote area.

However, this played into the hands of Qin Long and Dale, because it was none other than the Revolutionary Army that attracted CPX to Alabastan.

In order to give Qin Long and Dale a chance to get close to the members of the Abraham family of the Draconians, the Revolutionary Army decided to strengthen their position in the CPX organization first, so they deliberately spread false information, and designed fake strongholds and information for the two to destroy with their own hands.

And the location of the fake stronghold happened to be in Eruma, and the development of things was exactly what Qin Long expected, and sure enough, Lu Qi sent them there.

After Qin Long and Dale landed, they rented two fast running ducks in the port and set off for their destination lightly.

On the way, Dale suddenly said to Qin Long with a serious face, "Be careful, I'm afraid that this trip to Alabastan will encounter other players, and it is inevitable that there will be battles." ”

Qin Long thought that this would be an easy task, and was a little puzzled, "Why do you say that?" ”

"Similar to anime works, the plot of this world is also divided by 'copies', and each copy will have a conflict arranged by the author."

"The system doesn't let players wander around the world like headless flies, their scripted quests deliberately lead players to encounter and kill each other, and we, as murderers, will encounter enemies more often, so be prepared for PVP whenever we come to a new area or do a new mission." ”

"Huh? So why didn't the Daniel Holy Assassination mission at the beginning encounter other players? Shouldn't that also be a unique copy? ”

"You just treat that as a beginner's tutorial, how can there be a game that allows players to play PVP? Besides, if you want to meet other players, didn't you meet me? ”

What Dale said seems complicated, but the reason is very simple, that is, Qin Long's first PVP is coming soon.

There are a lot of things for him to consider, such as whether he should trust Dale at all, and whether he should use his cheats in front of her without reservation.

On the way to Eruma, Qin Long never stopped thinking.
