Chapter 11 Response
In the villa, Douglas ostensibly connected with the fourth son, Cassio, and was giving him advice.
In other areas of Peanut Island, the rumors about the Golden Underground Palace have finally reached a climax today!
The mysterious treasure map, which has long been known to be named, seems to have been discovered earlier today on the main island of Peanut Island.
Although it is only an incomplete remnant, it is definitely enough to arouse everyone's crazy pursuit - in order to find the treasure, the well-intentioned people entrenched near the kingdom of Snoopy have waited for too long, and this rare clue has fully aroused everyone's enthusiasm.
Bloodshed begins to erupt in various parts of the island, and any word about the treasure map threatens to open up a dispute for the dead.
If a situation like this is left unchecked, Peanut Island will soon become a hell on earth after the infinite expansion of desire, just like Scampara back then, but because of Jermaine's covert guidance, the alliance formed by the Snoopy royal family and the eldest prince Vito is obviously better than imagined.
With an absolute advantage in manpower and material resources, they took the initiative to attack and soon pocketed half of the remnants that were left out.
At the same time, with the perennial power of the two, a new temporary order was quickly established in the chaos.
… Of course, Grand Duke Vito wasn't very happy with Jermaine's insistence on using purchases to get the remnants of the treasure map from bounty hunters.
Vito: "We have the absolute initiative now, why are we talking nonsense with those scumbags who are scumbag!?" ”
Jermaine: "It's not how much money is spent on buying the treasure map, it's the point of the official control that we're showing. ”
The young man tugged at the brim of his cowboy hat and continued to explain: "Now the entire Peanut Island is fanatical because of the rumors of the Golden Dungeon, once the situation gets out of control and the competition for treasures falls into chaos, then it is obviously not good news for us who currently control the absolute advantage. ”
"Those guys who are fighting to the death for the treasure map are nothing more than money, and the gesture we are making now is tantamount to giving everyone a reason to reconcile, which saves us a lot of time and these miscellaneous soldiers. Besides..."
Jermaine glanced at Schneider, the seventh prince.
"After all, this mess happened on the main island of Peanut Island, and the Snoopy royal family doesn't want the disorderly conflict to escalate further, right?"
"Exactly," Schneider nodded, "the cost of rebuilding infrastructure is not a small amount, and we want to minimize losses when conditions allow." ”
Vito: "Hmph, it's not a big deal to be timid!" ”
As the next helmsman of the Osiris family, the eldest prince's temper has not been good, and for this alliance, he has always considered the problem from the position of the first person in charge, so when something goes wrong, it has long become a habit to complain.
But when these words fell on Schneider's ears, he was inevitably a little displeased.
Although the Seventh Prince is willing to tolerate concessions to a certain extent for the sake of the huge power of the Osiris family, Vito's arrogant and domineering style that does not consider his allies at all is really annoying.
At this moment, the Seventh Prince's heart was holding back the fire, but outside the office, a servant from the Osiris family suddenly pushed the door and entered...
Schneider knew that it was one of Vito's cronies, but it was not clear what news he had brought.
I saw that the man hurriedly leaned into Vito's ear and whispered a few words, and the eldest prince's face immediately became ugly.
Vito was never a person who could hide his emotions, and as soon as he heard the news of Hoover's death, his whole person immediately turned into a dynamite keg, revealing a vicious look.
"Oh, yes! All right! I already knew that these two guys were in cahoots, and sooner or later they would make a mess for me, and I did! ”
Jermaine: "If you're willing to talk... Dear Lord Vito, what is going on to annoy you so much? ”
"Hmph, it's not a big deal." Lowering his voice, the anger on the eldest prince's face has not yet dissipated, but in the end he still retains a little self-consciousness as the spokesperson of the family, "It's just a few stupid younger brothers who are messing around, I don't think I need your help." ”
"Brother?" Schneider grasped the key to the conversation, and quickly thought of someone who was on Jermaine's lips these days.
The seventh prince subconsciously glanced at the young man with the cowboy hat, as if he had some kind of bad premonition.
Jermaine: "Please forgive me if I guessed wrong... The person you just mentioned was Douglas? ”
Vito: "Just a stupid godson who doesn't know how to be grateful, and has nothing to do with our plans." ”
"This doesn't have to be Vito's son..."Jermaine picked up, completely ignoring Vito's intention to turn the page, and continued to ask, "Please tell me what he did, it may affect all of our next arrangements." ”
"All the arrangements?" Vito glanced at Jermaine, and then turned to Prince Schneider, "Seventh Prince, the military advisor you invited seems to be a little unclear about his identity, even if he made his own decisions before, and now he dares to give orders in front of me?" ”
Schneider: "This..."
Jermaine: "I have no intention of offending your authority, Grand Duke Vito, in fact, we all respect your position. But I must say that we must not forget someone's 'great deeds' on Scampara, and even if he has limited resources to mobilize now, he definitely has the ability to shake up this treasure hunt. ”
Adjusting his tone slightly, Jermaine knew very well that he couldn't fall out with Vito just yet, but he had to point out the danger of Douglas to everyone present.
Unfortunately, Vito didn't have the wisdom to advise.
"Enough!" The angry eldest prince rose up and interrupted Jermaine's admonition.
"Who do you think you are? Do you think you know that bastard better than the people of the Osiris family? It's ridiculous! ”
Vito has obviously lost the patience to continue talking, and in his opinion, Jermaine's approach is provoking his right to speak!
"Osiris created that bastard, and now he can be completely destroyed, understand!?"
The eldest prince left regardless of it, and awkwardly terminated the conversation between the allies.
In this case, of course, the other retainers of the Osiris family could only follow Vito away, so a few seconds later, only Jermaine and the Seven Prince's attendants were left at the conference table.
Schneider: "Okay, before things have started, you have made such a stiff deal with the successor of the Osiris family, is this your so-called strategy?" ”
"Now is not the time to joke, Your Highness Schneider." Jermaine sighed regretfully, realizing that while Vito's personality was indeed easier to take advantage of, his impulsive style of acting invisibly increased his resistance to the layout: "The situation may be much worse than we thought. ”
Schneider: "I don't understand, why are you so obsessed with Douglas?" As long as there are no problems with the cooperation between the royal family and the Osiris family, what can he do alone? ”
Jermaine: "Archduke Vito obviously has other things to hide from us, considering the special situation of Osiris at the moment, the things he is talking about are not only related to Douglas, but also likely to involve forces within the family... If that's the case, I don't think this reckless boy can fight that overly clever guy. ”
"You're saying Vito will be taken from power!?"
"Maybe... How's the previous plan to sow discord between Douglas and the rest of the mafia family? ”
"The Capone gang has reached the shores, and so have the other scattered killers... However, according to the current situation, I am afraid that they will not act rashly. ”
"That's right..."Jermaine muttered for half a second, "then give them a reason to do it, Your Highness, you might as well spread rumors around Peanut Island through the royal family's channels - just say that the other half of the treasure map has been obtained by the previous boss of the Golden Rose!" ”
