Chapter 31 Cobra the cheating father (Please collect and recommend)
Longinus was slightly stunned, looking at Cobra, who looked like a super brain-dead fan, a little unable to react.
"Is this guy really the future king of Alabasta?" Although Longinus expressed doubts in his heart, he still kept a warm smile on his face and said, "Prince Cobra, I..."
"No, don't call me Prince Cobra!" Cobra said excitedly, "You can call me Cobra or Kou Xiaola, but please don't use honorifics!"
Longinus trembled slightly, and almost suspected that this guy was gay, but his strong concentration still made him say calmly, "Okay! Let's all take a step back, I call you Cobra, don't you Say no to 'you', just call me Longinus!"
"Is this... is this really okay?" Cobra was trembling all over, his face was agitated, and Longinus even suspected that he would faint in the next moment.
Seeing Longinus nodding his head without leaving a trace, Cobra took a deep breath and said, "Major Longinus, I really admire you. When I saw what you said in the newspaper two years ago Those words are the famous words you said when you defeated the Blood Blade Pirates, power should be the servant of justice."
"After that, I finally found the meaning of my existence in my muddled days, that is to use the power given to me by the people to seek greater happiness for them!"
Longinus instantly switched to a kind personality and said earnestly: "You are right. Power and strength are monsters that cannot be released from the cage. Only by restricting them with justice and truth can their abuse be avoided."
After getting the affirmation from Longinus, Cobra was even more excited, but he was also a little sad when he was excited, "Unfortunately, my father refused to listen to my advice at all. Years of wars in the country, although the status and power continue to expand , but the economic situation has already dropped below the freezing point, and the domestic war weariness has reached its peak, and now Alabasta is the dynamite on the edge of the volcano, which may blow this country to pieces at any time."
"So, you mean..."
"I hope that you, Major Longinus, can help me save this country that may be destroyed at any time!" Cobra said hurriedly.
"You want to take power from your father?"
"Ah? No, Major Longinus, you misunderstood!" Cobra repeatedly waved his hands in defense, "I hope you can use the idea of justice to influence my father who has lost his eyes due to war and destruction!"
"Influence..." Longinus twitched the corner of his mouth speechlessly. According to Brigadier General Adkin, the current king of Alabasta is a sinister and cunning old bastard. This kind of person will be "influenced" by the concept of "justice" ", unless it's a dream.
But Longinus did not deny it directly, but asked a little bit tangled, "Do you have any more detailed information that can give me an advantage in the next negotiation, and make your father feel guilty because of 'guilt'?" Give up the plan to continue the war?"
"Does it make the father feel guilty? Does it count as contacting the pirates?" Cobra said ignorantly.
Seeing Cobra suddenly throwing such a powerful depth charge, Longinus couldn't help but gasp, it seems that this guy is really a good hand at cheating!
Although it is impossible to overthrow a king just by hiring pirates, if it works well, it will be a good bargaining chip at the meeting.
Longinus said calmly: "Yes, tell me the information in detail."
"Okay. As I said before, the war weariness in the country has reached its peak, which has greatly reduced the combat effectiveness of the army. In the early days of the war, we were actually in a backward situation, so my father secretly contacted the frenzied pirates, the heart The Pirates, the Banner Pirates, let those pirates disguise themselves as troops to participate in the war, and this saved the situation of losing ground."
"Cooperating with pirates is tantamount to seeking skin with tigers." Longinus said succinctly.
"Hmm! I think so too. Those pirates who can't get enough to eat will one day set their sights on Alabasta, a country that looks powerful but is actually dilapidated!"
……
Due to the continuous outbreak of women's wars at the banquet, the dinner soon ended in embarrassment.
However, the four-nation peace talks that should have been tomorrow were postponed to this night because of the strong request of the King of Alabasta.
In the spacious and open hall, the dignitaries and nobles of the four countries stood behind their own royal families, and the navy represented by Commodore Adkin sat at the front of the palace, facing the four royal families.
"Okay, let's start talking freely now. Although the navy's position is to remain neutral, but out of the concept of peace, I still hope that the kings can reach a reconciliation."
The king of Alabasta, who was sitting near the left, looked around for a week, then raised his neck a little reservedly and said, "Since everyone is so silent, let this king be the one to start this war. Our kingdom has invested a lot of manpower in order to start this war." Material resources, to end this war, we must at least make up for our losses!"
"So, our desire in Alabasta is very simple, that is, your three countries compensate us 100 billion Baileys, and how to distribute the 100 billion Baileys is your business."
"Absurd, 100 billion Bailey's war funds, I don't think you have any sincerity for peace talks." The King of Crete slapped the table angrily, and directly reprimanded.
"Don't be so impatient, I haven't finished yet. In view of our country's absolute leading position in the current war, terminating the war will cause us to damage a large part of our vested interests, so I have the right to request , and take a province from your respective kingdoms as spoils of war."
"After all, to terminate the war in such a good situation, even if I am the king, I still need to bear a lot of pressure!"
"However, in order to show my generosity, I don't need to designate any province for you to choose freely. Well, you can now praise my kindness to your heart's content!"
"Respected King of Alabasta, I really can't see any sincerity about the peace talks from your words." King Xiska also frowned, and said forcefully, "If you really have the will of peace Come, we will serve friends with fine wine, but if you want to threaten and provoke a new round of war, the heroic Xiskar citizens will also raise their shotguns to drive away the jackals!"
"Hmph! Two kings, in the face of the choice between survival and dignity, I think you will make the right decision."
Seeing that the peace talks had fallen into a fierce stalemate from the very beginning, and it seemed that it was about to turn into a prelude to the outbreak of war, Brigadier General Adkin hurriedly asked for help in a low voice, "Longinus, hurry up, I can no longer control the situation!"
Longinus took a deep breath, when did you control the situation, why didn't I know anything?
"My lords, 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' faint soul coercion Distributed, giving people the aura of a superior person, making people unconsciously want to hear him finish his speech, and calm the restless situation again.
Thanks to Fat Tiger for the 588 reward.Please ask for a recommendation ticket, the first recommendation of the new book seems to be crushed by the big bosses of the same period in all directions, and I feel a little flustered for no reason! (ノΔ)ノ
