Chapter 324

This question left the Five Elders silent, unable to squeeze out a word for a long time.

Karl smiled lightly: "Why aren't you talking? Or is it? The rebel Revolutionary Army can come in, but I, a Navy Hero, can't?"

The most hot-tempered Venus said fiercely to Karl: "Stop being sarcastic here. We haven't settled the account with you for injuring CP0! What exactly do you want to do?"

Karl said coldly: "I want to go to the Room of Authority!"

Venus: **** We have to request an audience with Imu-sama in advance, and you want to see them whenever you want?

Saturn waved his hand and said to CP0: "You guys go down first!"

"As you command!"

After CP0 left, Saturn said: "Admiral Karl, what exactly do you want to do? Imu-sama is not someone you can see whenever you want!"

"Nothing, just have some things I want to ask. Just tell me, are you going to let me see them or not?"

"Impossible!" "Don't dream!"

Karl spread his hands and walked straight inside.

Clang~

Venus drew the Kitetsu directly and held it against Karl’s neck: "Don't go any further!"

Karl tilted his head slightly, looked at Venus, his mouth curled slightly, and the next second, his whole body turned into a stream of light and disappeared.

"What?"

"I'm sorry, I don't have time to play with you right now. I think you don't really want to fall out with the Navy, right?"

After speaking, Karl strode into the door.

"Damn it! This bastard!" Venus rushed toward the Room of Authority in a rage, but couldn't succeed and was blocked by the others.

"Forget it, he’s right... Imu-sama will deal with him."

Room of Authority.

"Imu, where are you? Come out!"

No one responded.

Karl simply walked toward the Empty Throne. His goal wasn't to sit on it, but to walk to the side door of the Room of Authority, the Flower Room.

The Flower Room, the place where Imu usually lived.

It was located inside the castle, but it was lush and full of vitality. Everywhere on the green grass were colorful flowers, and around it were ancient trees covered with moss. The scenery here was completely different from the Room of Authority, and it did look quite suitable for living.

Soon, Karl saw Imu. At this moment, she was standing on the grass, butterflies dancing around her. Soon, she also noticed Karl’s existence, and the atmosphere turned cold instantly.

"Who allowed you to come here?"

"I called you in the Room of Authority, but you didn't respond, so I had to come here myself. You shouldn't mind, right?"

Imu’s expression turned cold: "You have great courage, daring to break into my residence without permission. Should I say you are arrogant, or that the ignorant are fearless?"

"Hahahaha, say whatever you want. Anyway, I’m already standing here. Do you want to kick me out?"

"Hmph! What exactly do you want to do?"

"Nefertari Cobra, is he dead?"

Imu said coldly: "That’s right. He asked some questions he shouldn't have, so I killed him."

"Why kill him? Let me guess, the questions he asked touched upon your secrets, right?"

"What exactly are you trying to say?"

Karl straightened his expression and walked slowly toward Imu, saying as he walked: "Don't be so nervous. I actually don't know much, and I don't need to know that much."

"If I’m not mistaken, you must have undergone the Immortality Surgery to live from 800 years ago until now."

"It’s been 800 years, and even the Poneglyphs, which extremely affect your rule, haven't been erased. Are you doing this unintentionally, or intentionally?"

Hearing this, Imu’s eyes widened, obviously very shocked that Karl knew these things.

Seeing Imu didn't speak, Karl continued: "800 years ago, there was Joy Boy. Now, there is Monkey D. Luffy. Oh, right, the person you asked me to get rid of at the beginning was him, the Rubber Fruit user."

"But you should be more familiar with its other name, the Nika Fruit."

"What?!"

At this moment, Karl had walked in front of Imu and said coldly: "Eight years ago, I already knew. Although the Five Elders knew relatively late, they definitely knew this news too. However, you, as their master, didn't know. That’s truly ironic."

Hoo~~~

Imu took a long breath, seemingly suppressing the anger in her heart: "You mean, they are deliberately hiding it?"

"Hahahaha, I didn't say that. After all, I’m not close to them. Besides, they really don't have a need to tell you."

"If I’m not mistaken, you started targeting those who ate the Nika Fruit 800 years ago because you felt that the Nika Fruit could overthrow your rule, right?"

"But for 800 years, Mary Geoise has always stood on the Red Line. This shows that the previous owners of the Nika Fruit didn't awaken the true power of the Nika Fruit at all. A Nika Fruit user who hasn't awakened poses no threat to you."

"And Straw Hat Boy doesn't seem to have shown any signs of awakening, so the Five Elders naturally wouldn't tell you. Perhaps in their view, as long as they erase the Nika Fruit user Move Move Like they did in the past, everything will return to normal—songs will be sung, and dances will be danced."

Imu stared deeply at Karl in front of her, looking at his smiling expression, while her own heart was stirred up by stormy waves. Where exactly did this Navy officer learn these things?

When the Five Elders first reported Karl’s information to her, she only felt that Karl was a Navy officer with great potential, a powerful protector of the World Government in the future.

But she never expected that this Navy officer’s growth would far exceed the Five Elders’ expectations, and also exceed her own expectations.

Before Karl, there was Sengoku, Garp, Zephyr... but none of them could ever be Move Move Like Karl.

"Where did you get this news?" Faint black mist appeared behind Imu.

Karl smiled slightly: "Do you know that if Observation Haki is cultivated to the extreme, one can foresee the future?"

Observation Haki can indeed foresee the future, but only the short-term future. Even with the system’s cheat, Karl couldn't do it. To know these things, Karl had to try hard to recall for a long time before piecing them together based on fragmented memories.

"Foresee the future? Can Observation Haki really be cultivated to this extent?"

"Heh, it seems you really have stayed in this ghost place for a long time! Tsk, tsk, tsk, eight hundred years, I really don't know how you got through it."

"Observation Haki, when cultivated to the extreme, can not only foresee the future but also listen to the voices of all things, perceive the weaknesses of living beings, listen to people’s inner thoughts... Of course, all this varies from person to person, and I just happen to be able to foresee the future."

"Then, what is the future you see?"
