Enel quickly walked up to Noir's side and whispered, "Don't say I didn't warn you, someone has their eyes on us."

Noir smirked and replied, "I know."

If Enel could sense it, then Noir certainly could too.

The moment they landed, they were noticed. It seemed someone had been watching them for a while.

Noir had a good idea who was tailing them, most likely government agents.

CP9. Noir hadn't gone looking for them yet, but it seemed they were delivering themselves right to him.

Noir whispered, "Don't raise any alarms; we'll deal with it after we get into the city."

Everyone nodded in agreement and quickened their pace.

Meanwhile, the person observing them from the shadows extended a hand from beneath their trench coat, revealing a small Den Den Mushi on their wrist.

The Den Den Mushi opened its eyes, forming facial features with a soft, feminine look, likely a woman.

The man spoke in a hushed voice, "I've spotted Noir entering the Water 7 area. What should I do?"

There was a brief silence before a woman's voice responded.

Judging by the voice alone, she sounded like a refined and confident woman.

"Don't take any action yet. Follow them, but don't make it too obvious."

The woman's voice was calm and commanding, and the man straightened up immediately, responding, "Understood!"

"There's a good chance CP9 agents are in Water 7, so be cautious in your actions."

The man nodded and said, "I understand. I won't make contact with Noir's group until I've assessed the situation."

To Noir's surprise, this person wasn't a government agent.

But at the moment, there was no way for him to gather more details.

As Noir reached the entrance to Water 7, they were greeted by numerous vendors selling bulls.

Bulls are a species unique to this area, commonly used as transportation by the locals.

The bulls had a dopey look in their eyes, but each one had a cheerful smile that was both ugly and cute.

Renting a two-person bull cost only 1,000 Beli, so Noir rented two.

Originally, Noir intended to share one with Robin, but Conis was adamantly against riding with Enel...

With no other choice, Noir reluctantly shared one with Enel.

"Excuse me, but isn't that harassment?"

"Ohhh!!!"

As Noir and Enel strolled down the street, they were suddenly met with a thunderous cheer from the canal behind them.

Curious, the two pushed through the crowd to see what was happening. Enel, puzzled, asked, "What's going on? Why is that person so popular? Is he a god of the Blue Sea?"

Noir shot him a glance and said, "You're a god too, so why aren't you more popular?"

"Haven't you heard them? That's the mayor of this city."

Enel scratched his head, unsure of what a mayor was.

Not a god? Perhaps a high priest?

Noir didn't bother to explain further, instead focusing his attention on the beautiful woman standing next to the mayor, Iceburg.

CP9 agents had indeed infiltrated Iceburg's inner circle.

Kalifa, Noir remembered her well.

To be precise, Noir had a good memory of most of the beautiful women in One Piece.

In the original story, she was defeated by his little sister during the battle at Enies Lobby. He didn't think much of her combat abilities.

Noir stepped out of the crowd, moving closer to Iceburg's group, and called out, "Mayor Iceburg! I'd like to have a word with you!"

Iceburg, with his stylish hair and deep red lipstick, looked serious but surprisingly approachable. He turned to Noir and said, "What do you want to talk about?"

Kalifa, showcasing her acting skills, adjusted her black-rimmed glasses and frowned, "Sir, solving your problems isn't part of the mayor's duties."

Noir glanced at Kalifa, his eyes briefly lingering on the cleavage hidden beneath her professional attire, before quickly looking away. He said, "I'd like your company's shipwrights to help me modify my ship."

Kalifa's expression grew even colder as she responded, "If you need ship repairs, go directly to Galley-La Company. Don't block the mayor's way."

Enel, growing impatient, glanced at her, and blue electricity surged from under his arm, intending to shut this annoying woman up for good.

Seeing Enel transform into lightning, Kalifa's eyes filled with fear.

This man's subordinate is a Logia-type user?

Noir placed a hand on Enel's arm, holding him back, and gave Kalifa a knowing smile.

"Relax, Miss Secretary. I just want to ask something. No need to worry."

Noir turned back to Iceburg and asked, "One more thing, I'd like to know, where is Franky?"
