Chapter 097 - A Big Hat in Your Hand
The Steel Knife Pirates are not a formidable group of pirates, otherwise they would not have relied on capturing 500 kings to blackmail King Falouis.
Their leader, the "Steel Knife", belongs to the kind of embarrassing strength that can walk sideways among ordinary people and fight against hundreds, but it is not enough in front of the strong.
That's why he urgently needs a Devil Fruit to break the bottleneck of his strength and make his strength jump to a higher level.
Then they were killed by Rob Lucci... It became Luki's punching bag after he ran into a wall at Hailan.
When Hailan triumphed with 500 kings, not only the whole kingdom of Falouis cheered, but even the king of Falouis himself walked out of the palace to welcome the reinforcements sent by the world government...
Well... Why is it different from what you remember?
King Falouis looked puzzled: "This is...??" ”
"He's the Hailan-sama who rescued me from the traffickers, and he's the colonel of the Navy Headquarters!"
The feudal ideology in this world is not particularly serious, and commoners can take the initiative to stand in front of the king and speak.
After Robert Jr. revealed Hailan's identity, he muttered in an undetectable voice, "It's a pity that Master Smoker didn't come..."
After confirming Hailan's identity, King Falouis enthusiastically invited Hailan to his palace.
……
"Rob Lucci, what's the matter with you?"
“……”
"Why did you let that navy take all the credit?"
“……”
The haughty Rob Lucci ignored his boss as he pondered what Helan had said to him.
"Because you are too weak to take the hostages back, that's why you chose to kill them to make it easier for you to complete the mission!"
Hailan snapped a large tall hat to Lucky's head.
But Lu Qi was sober, and he knew that he was not what Hailan said he was.
He really wanted to kill the 500 waste soldiers in the first place, and it wasn't a crooked reason to make the mission less difficult.
I want to kill, it's just that I want to kill, there is no excuse, there is no other purpose, it's just that I want to!
This is Rob Lucci, who never thinks he's done anything wrong.
It is precisely because he thinks a lot that he has his own unique ideas in the frequent brainwashing of Cipher Pol.
But that's just Luki's own thoughts.
He knew very well that in Hailan's eyes, he was just a waste that would "manually reduce the difficulty", which could not be explained no matter how it was explained.
It's like someone said: I never care if my wife is beautiful or not, because I am face blind, she is not beautiful, I can't see it at all.
If his wife is indeed beautiful, everyone will think that he is pretending to be a beep.
But if his wife is an ugly bastard, he's going to say something like that... Others will only treat him as a hehe...
Such a simple truth, Rob Lucci, who is good at thinking, will not be unable to understand.
"Navy genius ... I, Rob Lucci, won't be looked down upon by you! ”
Didn't you just leave safely with the hostages?
Do you have to do it? Of course I, Rob Lucci, can do that!
"Hey! What are you thinking?! What does the chief ask you? ”
"That navy is better than me, I can't beat him!"
People who are strong in their hearts will never deny the strength of others and their own failures, because they will aim for their opponents, redouble their efforts, and sooner or later they will surpass their opponents!
"That Hailan? I'll have to ask him, this is the government's mission to give us Cipher Pol, he's a navy, why should he meddle! ”
……
"My sister is in this country, and he said that her uncle was captured by pirates, do you think I can ignore this?"
As soon as he thought of Yami, who asked for help from Peachy Island, Hailan's nonsense came as soon as he opened his mouth.
"Your sister? How did I not know that Zefa had a daughter? ”
Because of Spandyne, Hailan has become a celebrity on Cipher Pol's side, and most CP people have a certain understanding of him.
"That's the godsister I recognized when I was saving slaves in the Chambord Islands, do you have an opinion?"
"Godsister? You can do it! So who is your godsister? ”
"I can't say that..."
"Why can't you say that?"
"I still know a little bit about the urine sex of your Cipher Pol, maybe the next time I come back, my sister will be killed..."
"You're slandering!"
"Hahahaha... I've heard that government agents and navy commanders are here, what, are you still having a good time? ”
“……”
As an official of the government, you still have to show face, and you can't lose your identity in front of the king of the member country.
"Hello King."
After greeting each other, King Falouis smiled and beckoned the two to take their seats.
"This time, I came to discuss the 'Heavenly Gold' with the two of you, you have protected the safety of my soldiers, and of course I will not break my promise!"
"Your Majesty the King, leave the escort work of 'Heavenly Gold' to me this time, you know, the agents this time are not very reliable..."
"Colonel Hailan, you are overstepping your duties!"
"How did I get out of business? Escorting Heavenly Gold, this is originally one of the jobs of our navy, and you see who you are bringing? A 13-year-old child, do you take heavenly gold as a child's play? ”
A big hat was buttoned on the other party's head first, and the other party was speechless.
In fact, with Lu Qi's strength, even seven or eight adult agents may not be able to beat him, but unfortunately he met the demon Hailan.
The agent knew very well that according to Lu Qi's temperament, he would definitely kill the 500 soldiers, and he originally wanted to deter this king who did not give him face, so he did not give Lu Qi the task of "rescuing the hostages".
didn't expect this to become a handle in Hailan's hands.
Rob Luci wanted to kill the soldiers, and King Falouis had already heard from his soldiers.
Although there was no action on the surface, King Falouis must have been extremely disappointed with the government in his heart.
So despite the war of words between Hailan and the agents, King Falouis finally handed over the task of guarding the "Heavenly Gold" to Hailan.
After returning to his residence and making sure that no one was around, Hailan opened the treasure chest of heavenly gold.
Perhaps because the treasury was close to emptiness, the Heavenly Gold paid by the Falouis Kingdom this time only had one Devil Fruit, and there was no gold or silver treasure.
"Nature... The more than a year of waiting has finally paid off..."
Hailan stuffed the "candle fruit" that he brought with him, which looked more like a natural devil fruit, into the box, and he took the target fruit to his mouth and bit it off without even washing it.
"Hmm..."
Hailan instantly covered her mouth.
They all say that the Devil Fruit is unpalatable, but when you really eat it, you don't know what kind of taste it is.
This can no longer be simply described as "unpalatable", because the strong stimulation of the Devil Fruit does not only seem to stimulate the taste buds, as if it is torturing Hailan's soul, as if there is a demon being absorbed by Hailan's soul, the process is not painful, but extremely disgusting.
Hai Lan knew very well that the Devil Fruit only needed to eat one bite to gain the ability, but for the sake of insurance, Hai Lan still had to swallow all the Devil Fruits at all.
"It's just once in a lifetime, there's no need to give up in order to reduce the burden of the moment, because a small loss can't be drawn......"
