After Shuna left, only Rod and Yuffie were left, and the scene suddenly became embarrassing.

"Speaking of which, the two of us are quite fateful."

Rod smiled.

He has been to a total of three places in the country of flowers, Black Harbor, Grodi, and Wangdu.

But almost all of them met the third princess of the country of flowers.

"Ah, yes."

"Who knew that the rumored Dragon Slaying Sword Hero would be cheeky enough to come and eat and drink."

Yuffie gathered the complicated emotions in his heart, pursed his lips and said.

The scene of that day is still fresh in my memory.

It was so shameful that she praised and adored herself in front of the Dragon Slaying Sword Hao.

Rod couldn't help laughing, it was a miserable time.

"You're so embarrassed to laugh!"

Yu Fei suddenly snorted:

"It's too much! Too bad! ”

She reprimanded twice, and suddenly fell silent, and after a moment, she said quietly:

"No matter what happened before, I've been sold to you by the kingdom now anyway."

"I'm afraid you don't know that the last time I went on a trip, I will come back and marry other countries."

"I'm very talented, and I can't do it with scheming, only my looks are okay."

"Maybe it's better to marry you, or to be your lover, than to marry a strange man you don't know."

Rhodes stood beside her, listening to the girl's silent talk, and his heart couldn't help but move.

If there is no Book of Knowledge, his situation may not be better than that of the third princess, and he will also not be able to control his own destiny, so he can only go with the flow and be at his mercy.

He looked at Yufie's gaze, and gradually softened a little.

"Why, moved by my words, fell in love with me?"

Yuffie looked up and smiled.

"In love with you?"

Rod shook his head with a smile.

If he was an ordinary person in his previous life, when he met such a noble, beautiful, kind and sweet princess, I am afraid he would really be attracted.

It's a pity that after coming to the pirate world, he continued to get stronger, and after he became one of the world's strongest echelons, his pursuit was already different.

Rhodes thought so, but didn't say it.

Because he could sense the sadness behind the girl's smile, she was a living person, but she was born destined to be a gift.

"Forget it, don't talk about it, let's go, I'll take you to visit the royal capital."

Yuffie perked up, his slender little hand around Rod's arm, and smiled happily.

When the two of them left, Shuna, who was standing in the shadows, turned around and said:

"Father, do you think this dragon slaying sword hero can really be used by us?"

"People like him are destined to shine in the new world in the future, and it is impossible to stay in the country of flowers for a long time, we just need to use his strength to stabilize the situation and make other countries fearful."

Charles shook his head lightly:

"In a few days' flower banquet, I'm afraid that other Western Sea powers such as the Yue Clan Kingdom will be tempted, and when the time comes, they will act when the opportunity comes."

"Actually, these are secondary, your top priority now is to work hard to cultivate, develop your abilities, and strive to put the Flower Country Naval Army in the hands of the royal family as soon as possible."

"Yes, Father." Xiu Nai's face was solemn, and he said solemnly.

Charles nodded slightly.

Even if the leader Qingjiao does not die in this battle, he will not have many years to live, and if he wants to continue to maintain the prestige of the country of flowers, he can only rely on the extraordinary talent of Shuna himself to break through.

……

During the day, he followed Yufe to visit the royal capital, and at night to recuperate from his injuries, especially in the middle, Xuesha and Gates rushed to the royal capital, and the time passed quickly.

January 1.

The old year passed, and Rod's physical age finally came to eighteen years old.

"Are you all ready?"

"Ready."

Hela said, with a slight tension in her face.

Because this can be called a new attempt by the revolutionary army.

In the past, the revolutionary army usually followed the popular line, disseminated ideas, saved civilians, set off uprisings, and overthrew the country, which was a kind of reform from the bottom up.

Few people have thought about going the royal route.

Because in the eyes of the vast majority of revolutionary troops, the royal family is an aristocracy, an existence to be overthrown, and water and fire are incompatible.

But this time, Rhodes broke through the "sexual" and tried to carry out reform from the top down.

This attracted the attention of all the top echelons of the revolutionary army.

If it weren't for the fact that Dorag was in the East China Sea at this time, it was too far away, otherwise he would definitely come in person.

"Don't be nervous, you will succeed."

Rod smiled.

In the world of the previous life, the reform from the top down would be troublesome and would encounter many obstacles, but in this world where force is supreme, it is different.

This is a world where one flag protects one country.

Strong enough force to destroy all obstacles.

Stubborn and backward minds can completely make them disappear from their physical form.

Soon, the flower feast began.

There were a lot of people at the scene, most of them were richly dressed, wearing gold and silver, full of a strong atmosphere of luxury.

As a famous vase princess, Yufe's beauty is undoubted, and many handsome young people have coveted it for a long time, but after hearing some recent news, they have put away these undeserved emotions.

Who dares to rob a woman with the dragon slaying sword, don't die?

Suddenly, the crowd moved slightly.

"The Dragon Slayer Sword Hero is here!"

When everyone looked for the sound, they saw that the crowd was separated like a "tide".

A handsome young man dressed in casual white came slowly.

He has black hair and black eyes, and his expression is casual, and he can't see any momentum and majesty, but he instantly became the center of the audience, attracting everyone's attention, as if the king was there, and even Yuffie was overpowered.

"You're here." Yuffie said softly as she grabbed Rod's arm.

The man is handsome, the woman is beautiful, the two of them stand together, but they complement each other and are very compatible.

"Lord Rhodes......"

Charles walked out from the side, and at this moment when the eyes of the audience converged, he said directly:

"With the death of Mr. Green Pepper in battle, everything has ended."

"But in the end, it was the royal family who offended first, and I am willing to unconditionally agree to your request on behalf of the royal family as compensation."

As soon as these words came out, the audience was silent.

Everyone looked at the young man who was dressed in white and accompanied by a beautiful woman.

It seems that Charles wants to make friends with this dragon swordsman, and even sent his daughter out.

The envoys of many kingdoms in the West Sea, such as the Yue Clan, thought so.

But Rod's focus seemed to be a little different, and he smiled and said, "Unconditional? ”

"That's right."

Charles frowned slightly, but he was still very confident, the power of a big country is very powerful, whether it is a devil fruit or a famous sword, if you really want to collect it, it is very efficient.

"Then please abdicate, I hope this Miss Yuffie next to me will be the queen."

Hearing this, Yu Fei's mouth suddenly opened into an O-shape, and he looked at Rod in a daze.

What's the situation?

The eldest prince Shuna was also stunned.

The smirk on Charles's face couldn't be maintained, and he frowned and said:

"Are you kidding?"

"Do you think I'm joking?"

Rhodes was indifferent, and his tone was ancient.

Charles smiled dryly, he was still young and in the prime of life, of course he didn't want to abdicate, so he could only say perfunctorily: "This matter is not something I can decide alone, and it needs to be discussed by all the great nobles." ”

The royal family is equivalent to the largest nobleman in the country of flowers, and the other big nobles also have very strong power.

Hearing this, Rod nodded slightly, with a cold gaze, he glanced at the nobles of the Flower Country on the side, and said lightly:

"You guys, who has any objections?"
