Chapter 169: A Newspaper That Dared to Challenge the Heavens
The New World.
On a certain island, there stood the headquarters of a well-established newspaper company.
Today, a video submission had just arrived. The editorial office was filled with staff members who were now gathered in front of a large screen, their faces frozen in shock as they watched the footage unfold.
The video began on the deck of a luxurious ship. Not long after, a figure appeared in the frame, prompting everyone to hold their breath.
It was unmistakable—a Celestial Dragon. The figure wore opulent clothing, his head enclosed in a transparent bubble, as was customary for the Celestial Dragons. Two nearly unclothed but beautiful female slaves followed closely by his side, their expressions hollow and devoid of any hope, their eyes dull and lifeless.
They knelt beside the Celestial Dragon, allowing him to toy with them at his leisure.
But then—
A black shadow rose silently on the deck.
"Who goes there?" a man in a black suit demanded coldly. He was clearly a member of CP, the Cipher Pol, and had quickly stepped between the Celestial Dragon and the shadowy intruder.
The dark figure didn't speak. He simply extended a newspaper toward them.
"Filthy peasant!" the Celestial Dragon sneered. "How dare a lowlife like you set foot on my ship! Seize him! I want him as my slave!"
