133, Fishman Secret Treasure & Exchange Conditions
The two stopped in the first hall of the palace as soon as they entered, Jinpei went to deliver a message to King Neptune, and Chiba stood in the hall waiting boredly. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
About ten minutes later, Jinping returned, bringing back the news that King Neptune was willing to meet Chiba.
"Thank you. ā
Chiba nodded to Jinpei and walked forward.
"This is Your Majesty's decision, and you don't need to thank me. ā
Jinping didn't appreciate it, and led the way with a cold face. Chiba was not bored either, and the two of them all talked along the way, and the atmosphere was terrifyingly silent.
After a short time, the two of them came to the main hall of the palace, and on both sides of the main hall were neatly arranged fish-man guards, one by one with their chests held up, as if this would make them appear to be very powerful.
As soon as Chiba entered the door, his eyes were fixed on the man in the distance.
The king of the Dragon Palace Kingdom on Fish-Man Island, the "Great Knight of the Sea" Neptune, a guy who is much larger than the average fishman, is sitting on the throne, with a finely carved trident by his side, arms folded around his chest, and is silently looking at Chiba.
"You're the new Seven Martial Sea Chiba? Jinping said that you have something to do with me, let's talk about it, what kind of thing can make you, a busy person, come to Fish-Man Island for a special trip?"
Neptune is still very polite to Chiba, in fact, there is no way not to be polite, Lun's size, Xiao is not inferior to Fish-Man Island, in terms of strength, Xiao's overall combat power is much more than Fish-Man Island. That is, Fish-Man Island is located in the deep sea, and the strength of Fish-Man in the sea has increased greatly, which makes people who don't know how many people who have intentions on Fish-Man Island have to dispel their thoughts.
But this definitely does not include Chiba, whose ability allows him and the people around him to successfully log in to Fish-Man Island. Fish-Man Island itself is wrapped in a huge bubble, and as long as you can successfully land on the island, the advantage of the Fish-Man in the sea will be gone.
Therefore, if Chiba is willing, it is not difficult for Xiao to attack Fish-Man Island at all, and the sea water that is comparable to the curse of heaven for others cannot stop Xiao's soldiers at all.
Neptune also had to be polite to Chiba, Chiba's name was known everywhere, and he didn't want to offend such a super strong man because of a small mistake.
"Actually, it's okay, I'm not too busy. Chiba grinned, "I'm here today, of course, because I want King Neptune to help." ā
"What's the favor, as long as I can help, I will definitely help. ā
Neptune patted his chest and said loudly, not realizing at all that Chiba would take this opportunity to open his mouth.
For example, "How about giving me the throne", can Neptune do it? Yes, but he doesn't dare to do it, and he can't do it at all. Another example is "marry your daughter to me", can Neptune do it? Yes, but he is afraid that he will be beaten to death by his wife afterwards.
He just subconsciously thinks that with Chiba's identity, even if he makes a request, it won't be messing around, if it's just some material support or something else, if you help, you will help, even if you have a good fate, it's good.
Sure enough, Chiba didn't make any requests that would make Neptune want to die.
"I heard that the Dragon Palace Kingdom has an inheritance secret treasure jade hand box, and this time, I came here for this box. ā
As soon as Chiba's words fell, the smile on Neptune's face froze a little, and Jinping's face sank suddenly.
"Leader Chiba, you yourself know that the Jade Hand Box is the secret protection inherited from my Fish-Man Island era, and you open your mouth to ask for it, isn't it a bit too much!"
The surrounding guards also looked at it, and their expressions were not very good.
The relationship between mermaids and humans is not good in the first place, and the hostility between the two sides is no longer something that can be made clear in one or two sentences.
Originally, it was very unpleasant to break into the door like Chiba, coupled with his human identity, it was really restrained not to drive him out, and now he actually opened his mouth to ask for the secret protection that has been passed down from generation to generation of the fish-man race, which can be regarded as stabbing the hearts of these fish-people around him.
"Presumptuous!"
"Get out of Fish-Man Island!"
"Humans get out, you're not welcome on Fish-Man Island. ā
Even with King Neptune sitting on it, the guards around him couldn't help but curse.
Neptune looked at Chiba, Chiba also looked at him, for a long time, Neptune suddenly waved his hand, and the surrounding guards quickly closed their mouths, but everyone was still staring at Chiba with murderous eyes.
Chiba didn't care about these glances, he just kept looking at Neptune, waiting for Neptune's answer.
Neptune is the king of the Fish-People, and of course he can't be as angry as those guards, and the image of the king still needs to be there.
"Leader Chiba, you yourself know that the Jade Hand Box is a secret treasure that has been passed down from generation to generation by my Fish-Man Clan, and now you open your mouth to ask for it, it's really inappropriate. Even if I can agree, the entire people of Fish-Man Island can't agree to it, so if you really want this treasure, please show your sincerity. It's impossible to give it for free, but it's okay to exchange, as long as the conditions you take out are the same as the jade hand box. ā
It was Neptune's deliberate decision.
Others didn't know what was inside the jade hand box, so how could he, as a king, not know it?
Now Chiba wants a jade hand box with a mouth, and I think it is also from some unknown channel to get the treasure information inside, which may be what Chiba really needs, so blindly refusing is not the most suitable choice, so it is easy to anger the "fifth emperor" above the sea. To be honest, Neptune knows the strength of Fish-Man Island and the strength of Jinping very well, and ordinary pirates naturally can't please them, even a large pirate group doesn't have the ability to raid a country.
But instead of a strong man like Chiba...... Perhaps he alone can destroy a country, so it is the most unwise choice to provoke such a strong man.
But it is absolutely impossible to give it for nothing.
So trading is the most suitable choice, as long as the conditions given by Chiba are good enough, even if it is a transaction, there is nothing wrong with it, anyway, the contents of the jade hand box, even if they stay on Fish-Man Island, it doesn't make much sense. Weak enemies don't need this kind of thing, and strong enemies don't use it, but it's easy to keep some people in mind all the time, since someone wants to take over now, it's not a good choice.
Now all I have to wait for is Chiba's answer.
Jinping also calmed down, he looked at Chiba, and also waited for Chiba's answer.
In the hall, everyone was silent, and the whole hall could hear the pins dropping.
After a while, Chiba suddenly grinned.
"It's very simple, give me the jade hand box, and the place of Fish-Man Island will be sheltered by Xiao from now on. Exchanging the jade hand box for the peace of Fish-Man Island is very cost-effective when you think about it. ā
