With a gleam in his eyes, Spandam once again showed a look of anticipation for the excitement to come.

He wanted to see if these people could still laugh after a while.

Suddenly, a warship, seemingly out of nowhere, headed straight for the guard ships of Enies Lobby.

Almost everyone's attention was attracted by the departing Sea Train, and very few noticed this sudden turn of events.

This warship, the 35th battleship invented by Cutty Flam, the Franky Battle Ship, was on its course!

It was predictable what would happen when this warship attacked the guard ships of Enies Lobby.

This was the bad idea Spandam had come up with.

Framing and blaming!

It's like having mud fall into your pants - it might not be poop, but it sure feels like it.

Explanations, excuses?

Are they useful?

He was one of the officers of Enies Lobby - wasn't it up to him to declare what was black and what was white?

Once Cutty Flam was caught, wouldn't that foolish fish-man Tom submit?

Spandam was already showing a triumphant smile, barely able to wait.

But just then, suddenly a laser cannon shot from afar, directly destroying the Franky Battle Ship before it even got close, blowing it to smithereens!

This huge commotion immediately attracted the attention of countless people.

Many guards immediately moved, layer upon layer, to protect the Celestial Dragons behind them.

The guard ships of Enies Lobby also went into battle mode, but couldn't find any enemies.

Spandam's smile suddenly froze on his face.

"What's going on? Where did that laser cannon come from? Who ruined my plan?!"

He was nearly driven mad with anger!

How was he supposed to frame and blame now?

Say there was something wrong with the warship that got blown up?

Where's the evidence?

Forcefully make the 'victim' into the 'aggressor'?

With the Celestial Dragons here, how could he blatantly lie?

Damn!

"From which direction did the attack come? Go catch the person responsible now!"

Spandam issued orders furiously, wishing he could tear the attacker to pieces.

Meanwhile, Tom and the others, who also noticed the Franky Battle Ship, looked utterly shocked."Franky, what in the world is going on?" Iceburg asked with a steely face.

"I don't know, someone must have stolen my ship!" Franky hurriedly explained. He had just watched his Franky Battle Franky head straight for the ship at Enies Lobby, breaking into a cold sweat.

At this moment, Tom looked towards the distant island, thinking to himself that it must have been that person who took action.

The World Government's every move had been anticipated by him, naturally, he had prepared countermeasures.

"What a relief."

Tom couldn't even begin to imagine that Spandam would go to such lengths for the blueprints of 'Pluton.'

There were Celestial Dragons present, after all—what audacity!

But he had to admit, if the opponent's plan were to succeed, unless he handed over the blueprints of 'Pluton,' Franky would be undoubtedly dead.

Meanwhile, Abel, who had fired that earth-shattering cannon, had already retracted the [Diabolical Emperor Armament: Death Light Destroyer Cannon].

Fortunately, there had been more than 7 days, allowing him to stay here, waiting for it to recharge.

And after truly getting to handle it, he discovered that the [Diabolical Emperor Armament: Death Light Destroyer Cannon]'s power could be adjusted. However, it required a 7-day charge before each use.

This meant that as long as the power was properly adjusted, he could fire several shots.

For instance, a strength of 3 was enough to destroy a ship. Using a strength of 10 would be too wasteful.

After putting away the Emperor Armament, Abel immediately erased his presence and ran off to hide somewhere else.

To be honest, he really wanted to blast the Celestial Dragon just now.

But considering there was no benefit and the consequences would be severe, he didn't do it.
