Hunters Island:

Some moments before sending notifications of the invasion of the main headquarters by foreign forces to the mobile phones of the hunters.

A pool of liquid darkness crept through the cracks in the ground toward the giant concrete building, which served as the central prison, without being detected by anyone.

The sun was dim in this part of the world, unlike the other half where the sun still shone brightly. This aided Moria in smoothly infiltrating without being noticed by the guards scattered everywhere.

However, if the guards didn't notice him, it didn't mean he could escape the notice of the small-sized surveillance cameras scattered everywhere.

Unlike the Den Den Mushi's surveillance, it was easy to ignore the presence of modern advanced surveillance cameras that were only in Rob's control in this world.

This was overlooked by the World Government, the Marines, and Moria, who believed he had not been discovered.

Since Moria set foot on Hunters Island, he had already been discovered. Under Rob's orders, he was allowed access to the central prison and entered.

'Kiiishishishi!' At this moment, Moria chuckled internally, though he had no eyes to see in the form of the liquid shadow. Instead, he relied on Observation Haki to monitor his paths; he could easily reach the cells of the central prison.

He managed to avoid all the guards and sneak into the prison indeed. From here, he began searching for Hogback's cell.

'The central prison, my ass! Impel Down is still more terrifying! Feels like I'm sneaking into my own backyard, Kishishishishi~!!' These were Moria's thoughts while searching for Hogback's cell and ignoring the rest that imprisoned many pirates and criminals.

At this moment, a black shadow passed by a specific cell... The shadow instinctively stopped when it felt a dangerous presence inside the cell.

'Who's there?' Moria realized as the imprisoned man's form appeared—it was the Golden Lion!

'This crazy Golden Lion... Kishishishi! Should I set him free, I wonder?'

'Causing chaos would be a good option if something happened, and our presence was exposed... Well, I'll think about it after finding Hogback.'

Moria continued searching for Hogback's cell.

At this moment, Shiki opened his eyes, which he had closed for a long time. It seemed like the madness that once filled him had subsided.

"Sneaking in? Jihaha~" At this moment, Shiki's attention was drawn to a certain book beside his daily meal.

"One Piece manga!" Shiki got so excited that he quickly forgot about Moria.

After a continuous search, Moria finally pinpointed Hogback's location. The moment he easily entered Hogback's cell as a shadow, alarms sounded!

Extra gates fell on the prison cells, and Moria, along with Hogback, was imprisoned inside!

"For the absurdity! We've been exposed!" The color drained from Moria's face. Kuzan and Borsalino were quickly brought out from his special shadow pocket.

"Arara~ It seems we've been exposed as expected," Aokiji said with a cold breeze.

"Annoying... I was comfortably asleep inside..." Kizaru sighed in annoyance before turning into light and heavily damaging the cell gates.

Moria looked at Hogback and quickly said, "We don't have time to explain anything now. From now on, don't leave my side. We will definitely escape from here."

...

Ohara:

'Well, it seems that Moria's situation is not urgent. They won't be able to escape from the prison even if they have three of the Gorosei with them.'

'I'll finish this 'matter' that I postponed for too long before going to teach Moria, Kuzan, and Kizaru a harsh lesson.'

'It seems that a new chapter of the Egghead arc has just been released... Well, I'll leave reading the chapters for another time tonight. It's not urgent either.'

After finishing the chat with his pregnant wives, Sora and Toki, Rob prioritized. He had previously sent his children to Fishman Island at Hancock's request, telling them that he would bring them back later.

Rob looked at the manga book that people in art stores were currently reading.

The thing Rob had always wanted to do and had been postponing for a long time was related to this chapter.

'I postponed it because the time wasn't right yet... Now that this bridge has finally appeared in the manga, I can move to alleviate their suffering... The world nobles can't fool people by creating the impossible forever.'

"One Piece" Events:

—————————

[East Blue, The Country on a Bridge, Tequila Wolf.]

In the background, an extremely massive bridge appeared over the sea, with snow falling heavily, indicating the cold weather.

At this moment, Robin appeared, seemingly in good condition.

"This is a country of laborers…" Someone was speaking to Robin, who listened silently while observing many people working hard in this harsh weather under the strict supervision of supervisors. "…"

"Pull!!"

"Uwoooooh…!!!"

"The workers here… are either criminals gathered from every country or citizens of countries that refused to join the World Government…" Apparently, one of the supervisors was informing Robin about the current situation of this place.

"Aagh…!!" Meanwhile, another worker fell dead from exhaustion outside. "You useless piece of-!!!"

Robin saw through the window how another supervisor was whipping the man who had just fallen dead from exhaustion.

"Well… They really are slaves…" The speaking supervisor continued.

"What are you building?" At this moment, Robin asked.

"A bridge. A gigantic bridge that connects two islands. But we're a long way from completion…!!!" In the background, a colossal bridge was visible in the construction phase, seemingly not close to completion anytime soon.

"People keep on collapsing… So we keep on taking in new workers."

"After all, this bridge has been under construction for 700 years…!!!" The supervisor announced, shocking Robin.

"700 years…!? Whatever for…!?" asked Robin.

"You have no need to know that…!!! I don't know where you came from…"

"But now that you're a laborer, all you need to worry about is building that bridge!!!" Apparently, Robin was already in a predicament.

•———•———•———•———•———•

Foosha Town:

"This cursed bridge..." Garp felt discomfort when he saw Tequila Wolf in the manga.

"It's this impossible project..." Dragon said angrily. He was reminded of one of the heinous crimes committed and still being committed by the World Government against the people.

"What's the deal with this bridge? Do they want to connect two islands with each other? Has this colossal project been ongoing for 700 years now? It started just 100 years after the current World Government rose to power. This is madness!" Ivankov's eyes widened as he saw this. He couldn't help but shudder as he recalled his past as a slave in God Valley.

"... This is horrifying..." No one felt the tremor that came from Kuma, a member of the Buccaneers. The tremor came from his genes! The World Government loved using his race members as slaves in creating such impossible projects. Many of them died in similar impossible projects.

The purpose was clear, never to end!

The core purpose was to weaken resistance!

"This bridge will never reach its destination..." After some silence, Kuma said emotionlessly.

"That's true..." Garp responded with regret.

As a former elite of the Marines, he knew many horrifying truths hidden by the world nobles.

Their brutal methods made his scalp numb when he thought about them at the moment he wanted to sleep.

Why did he refuse promotion to become an admiral all the time?

To avoid killing a Celestial Dragon in a fit of rage! Since that day in God Valley, he had a hidden desire to kill one of them.

At this moment, the light dimmed inside the art store, and a familiar screen appeared.

It was the live broadcast screen he had seen before when Enies Lobby was destroyed.

This time it was showing Rob standing in the air, directly above a specific bridge.

It was the bridge that had just appeared in the manga.
