14 Ch 14 : Special Illusion

As Lake had gone and prepared the Pirate Plan, Cade, who was alone in his office, gradually felt lonely.

The noisy figure that usually stood by his side, for some reason, Cade began to feel Lake's shadow in his room.

"...."

" Bah, I'm still straight! Why should I think about Lake."

Cade shook his head, trying to shake away that kind of weird thought. Nonetheless, it was true that he felt the room was a bit empty.

Maybe it was the right time to find a new secretary.

This time, he should find a big beauty to replace Lake.

He turned his head and subconsciously said:

" Lake, bring me the documents of the secretary position applicants.."

But there was still no response…

" ….. "

" Forget it. Now that Lake had matters to take care of, I should be doing this by myself. *Sigh* I hope there will be a good applicant today."

Cade sighed. He began to stretch his body before he walked to the document room. There, he told the man managing the document room to call the applicants with noteworthy criteria to come to his office for an interview.

. . . . . . . .

Fast forward, the document has been filtered, and the noteworthy candidates have been called.

However, currently inside his own office, Cade had black lines all over his forehead.

Why do headaches come one after another, he thought.

In front of him, Miss All Sunday or Nico Robin, Princess Vivi, and a woman who seemed close to Nico Robin, or in other words, potentially a Baroque Work Spy.

Looking at the three, Cade was a bit speechless.

All three of them were indeed big beauties. But…

Why would the Baroque works target him? Cade didn't think he had offended anyone.

He really wanted to complain. He was just doing his own business, so why would this Crocodile be such a busybody and send his agent to come here?

Still, now that they had come here, Cade realized that they must not have any good intentions in their mind.

And since the other party was the one that started these things, Cade also won't be polite.

It might be different if the one that came here was Crocodile himself, but just Nico Robin an unknown woman, Cade would show that he and Sullivan Kingdom was far from a soft persimmon.

Seeing Cade's shocked look when he saw her, the woman next to Nico Robin almost let out a smile.

Her actual identity was Mr. 2 Bon Clay, who infiltrates the Sullivan Kingdom to find information about the new technologies.

These past weeks he had not stayed still and did nothing. After he copied King Sullivan's face, he was snooping through every corner of the Palace. But who knows that his investigation results told him that the one who was in control of the new technology was actually not King Sullivan, but rather prince Cade.

This was also the reason why he had disguised himself and applied as Cade's secretary. And now, looking at Cade's mesmerized face, he thought today's mission was practically half done.

"hehe..."

He was ready to act coquettishly to seduce Cade, but who knows that at this moment, something happened.

The atmosphere suddenly changed. It felt like there was a huge pressure hammering them down. Mr. 2 or Bon Clay, slowly turned his head to look over. A tall figure with a white shirt, and red hair was sitting on an empty chair in the corner of Cade's office.

' S- Since when..'

He didn't even notice this person.. How could this be…

Ba-Thump!!!

Mr. 2's heartbeat grows wild when he sees this man, and even Nico Robin now no longer has that calm face. Only Vivi was sitting there with a confused face because she could only see an empty chair with no one sitting on it.

"Baroque work…" The man with red hair looked at Mr.2 and Nico Robin indifferently, "How about giving me face and leaving this place immediately?"

If before they still had guesses on their mind, now both Nico Robin and Mr.2 only wanted nothing more than to leave this place as soon as possible.

Cade had spotted the two trying to pull a trick on him, so he made a simple illusion and made "Shanks" appear out of thin air. The purpose was not for anything else... a faint flash flashed under his eyes. The cold light.

"Tell your boss, Crocodile! Do you think I don't know your conspiracy! Cade is my friend. If you think of getting your dirty hands on him, then..!"

The "Shanks" drew his sword and stood up in front of Mr. 2 and Nico Robin without hesitation.

" Then don't blame me for not giving your boss a face."

BOOM!!!!!

Red Conqueror Haki flashed and submerged both Nico Robin and Mr.2. Of course, it was not real Conqueror Haki. But since the two had been dragged to Cade's illusion world, Cade could easily make the two believe that Shanks and his Conqueror Haki was really the one in front of him.

Shanks Conqueror Haki, even the strong guys in Whitebeard Ship could barely resist. How can the weak guys with tens of millions of Bailey's rewards be able to break open? Surprised expression decorated their faces.

Only then did they realize they had provoked a beast that they should not provoke.

Yonko Shanks, it was an existence even scarier than Crocodile.

In just seconds, the consciousness of both Nico Robin and Mr.2, who was enveloped by "Shanks" Red Conqueror Haki, slowly blurred, and eventually, when the two could not hold themselves any longer, Cade finally retracted the illusion.

He sighed in relief as he watched the two slump down unconsciously.

Just making this illusion had exhausted him a lot. And if the two were a bit stronger, Cade didn't know whether his illusion would be effective or not. In case they had seen the real Shanks, they would know that Cade's replica was far from the real thing.

After all, the only reason Cade's illusion was successful was that the two were caught off guard, and they were pretty weak. Else, cade would only be a paper tiger, strong against the weak and weak against the strong.

Though for now, Cade was satisfied with this result. At least this appearance of Yonko Shanks would bring enough deterrent for Crocodile not to mess up with the Sullivan Kingdom.
