Longinus's face was slightly stunned, and he looked at Kobra, who looked like a super brainless fan in front of him, and he couldn't react.

"Is this really the future king of Alabastan?" Although Longinus was skeptical in his heart, he still maintained a warm smile on his face and said, "Prince Kobra, I ......"

"Don't, don't call me Prince Kobra!" Kobra said with an excited expression, "You can call me Kobra or Little Kobra, but don't use honorifics!" ”

Longinus's body shook slightly, and he almost suspected that this guy was gay, but the strong concentration still made him say quietly, "Okay! Let's all take a step back, I'll call you Cobra, don't say anything 'you', just call me Longinus! ”

"That's ...... Is this really possible? Kobra shuddered and looked excited, and the look made Longinus suspect that he would faint the next moment.

Seeing Longinus nodding without leaving a trace, Kobra took a deep breath and said, "Major Longinus, I really admire you. When I saw you say in the newspaper two years ago, the same famous quote you uttered when you defeated the Bloodblade Pirates, power should be a servant of justice. ”

"After that, I finally found the meaning of my existence in the muddy days, that is, to use the power given to me by the people to seek greater happiness for them!"

Longinus instantly switched to a good personality and said earnestly: "You are doing the right thing, power and power are monsters that cannot be released from the cage, and only by restricting them with justice and truth can they be prevented from abusing them."

After receiving Longinus's affirmation, Kobra was even more excited, but he was a little gloomy in addition to excitement, "It's a pity that my father refused to listen to my advice at all." Although the country has been fighting for many years, although its status and power have been expanding, the economic situation has long fallen below the freezing point, and the domestic war weariness has reached its peak, and the current Alabastan is an explosive on the edge of a volcano, which could blow the country to pieces at any time. ”

"So, you mean ......"

"I hope Major Longinus can help me save this country that could be destroyed at any moment!" Kobra said hurriedly.

"You want to take power away from your father?"

"Huh? No, Major Longinus, you misunderstood! Kobra waved his hand in defense, "I want you to use the idea of justice to influence my father, who has been blinded by war and destruction!" ”

"Probation ......" Longinus twitched the corners of his mouth speechlessly, according to Brigadier General Adkin, the current king of Alabastan is a sinister and cunning old Yin B, this kind of person will be "influenced" by the idea of "justice", unless it is a dream.

But Longinus did not directly deny it, but asked a little entangledly, "Do you have any more detailed information that will give me an advantage in the next negotiations, so that your father will give up his plan to continue the war because of 'guilt'?" ”

"Do you make your father feel guilty? Does contacting pirates count? Cobra said ignorantly.

Seeing Cobra suddenly throw out such a powerful depth charge, Longinus couldn't help but gasp, it seems that this guy is really a good hand at cheating!

While it's impossible to bring down a king just by hiring pirates, it can be a good bargaining chip in a meeting if it works well.

Longinus said quietly: "Yes, tell me this information in detail."

"Okay. As I said before, the war weariness in the country reached its peak, which greatly reduced the combat effectiveness of the army, and we were actually in a backward situation in the early days of the war, so my father secretly contacted the Crazy Pirates, the Heart Pirates, and the Banner Pirates, and let those pirates disguise themselves as armies to participate in the war, which saved the situation of defeat and retreat. ”

"Cooperating with pirates is tantamount to seeking skin with tigers." Longinus said succinctly.

"Hmmm! I think the same way, those unfed pirates will one day set their sights on Alabastan, on this seemingly powerful but in fact dilapidated country! ”

……

Due to the constant outbreak of women's wars at the banquet, the dinner soon ended in disarray.

And the four-nation peace talks, which were supposed to be tomorrow, were postponed that night because of the strong demands of the king of Alabastan.

In the spacious and open hall, the dignitaries and nobles of the four countries stood behind their royal families, and the navy represented by Commodore Adkin sat at the front of the palace, facing the four royal families.

"Alright, let's start talking now. Although the position of the Navy is to remain neutral, I hope that the kings will reach a reconciliation out of the spirit of peace. ”

The king of Alabastan, who was sitting near the left, looked around, raised his neck a little reservedly, and said, "Since everyone is so silent, then this king will throw bricks and lead the way." In order to start this war, our kingdom has invested a lot of manpower and material resources, and to end this war, we must at least make up for the losses! ”

"Therefore, our desire in Alabastan is very simple, that is, your three countries will compensate us with 10 billion Baileys, and how to distribute this 10 billion Baileys is your business."

"Ridiculous, 10 billion Bailey's war funds, I don't think you have the sincerity of peace talks at all." The King of Crete slapped the table angrily and scolded directly.

"Don't be so anxious, I'm not done yet. In view of our country's absolute leading position in the present war, an end to the war would cost us a considerable part of our vested interests, so I have the right to demand that another province be ceded from your respective kingdoms as spoils, while maintaining the territory already occupied. ”

"After all, ending the war in such a good situation, even if I am the king, will need to carry a lot of pressure!"

"However, as a sign of my generosity, I may not specify any province for you to choose freely, well, you may now praise my kindness to your heart's content!"

"Dear King of Alabastan, I really can't see any sincerity in your words about peace talks." King Hiska also frowned, and said strongly, "If you really come with a will for peace, we will have a good wine to entertain friends, but if you want to threaten and provoke with a new round of war, the heroic Hisca people will also raise their shotguns to drive away the jackals!" ”

"Humph! Two kings, in the face of the choice of survival and dignity, I think you will make the right decision. ”

Seeing that the peace talks had fallen into a fierce stalemate at the beginning, and it seemed that it was about to evolve into a prelude to the outbreak of war, Brigadier General Adkin hurriedly whispered for help, "Longinus, come to the top, I can't control the situation anymore!" ”

Longinus took a deep breath, when did you control the situation, why didn't I know anything?

"Ladies and gentlemen, please listen to me, the key to peace talks is to seek common ground while reserving differences, since everyone is here for peace, please be more patient and listen to me analyze the current situation." Longinus's faint soul coercion emanated, giving people the momentum of a superior person, making people unconsciously want to listen to him finish speaking, so that the originally somewhat restless situation was calm again.
