Chapter 4: The King's Soul Contract
"You talk nonsense!" Klockdahl shouted in disbelief: "It's been ten years since Ivankov was locked up in the first prison of the world government, and the great prison under the sea was pushed into the city. Ten years ago, you were a child, how could you possibly know what I was up to? β
Shen Ming asked rhetorically: "In that case, then how did I know that Ivankov had your handle?" β
Klockdahl's words were stagnant, and after a long time, he continued to murmur unrelentingly: "He promised me that he would never tell me about it!" β
"He promised you, he promised you." Shen Ming seemed to smile: "However, it doesn't matter if I know it or not, it has nothing to do with it." β
Klockdahl frowned, his face gloomy. After pondering for a while, he sneered and said, "I don't know where you got this news from, but I believe in the character of the Shemale King. Even if you know he has my handle, there's no way you'll know what it is! β
Shen Ming no longer talked to Klokdal, but looked at Tsunade and asked meaningfully, "There are really few traces of surgery that even you, the god of ninja medicine, can't understand." It must have been a major surgery that would affect his whole body, right? β
Tsunade was surprised, as if he didn't expect Shen Ming to be able to say a thing or two in terms of medical skills. She nodded, but didn't speak.
"You still don't understand?" Shen Ming once again used the palace trick against Klockdahl.
Klockdahl's face was already very ugly at this time.
It was neither anger, nor gloom, nor fear. It is an indescribably complex expression of confusion, disbelief, hesitation and other emotions intertwined.
"Your Majesty's Seven Martial Seas' Sands Crocodile Klockdal, the news of being defeated by me and permanently imprisoned in the Kingdom Prison has spread, if you don't care, and you still think that you will have a chance to escape from prison in the future." Shen Ming didn't know his true secret, but it didn't matter. Shen Ming looked determined, and asked Klockdahl: "Then I'll release this secret of yours, along with the secret that you were defeated and imprisoned." When the whole world knows about you, will your ambition to become One Piece still be realized! β
"Being your subordinate, my ambition to be the King of the Pirates is even more impossible to realize." Klockdahl retorted.
Shen Ming shook his head and said, "If you don't be my subordinate, you will be locked up here forever and will not see the light of day, and even if you escape from prison by luck and your secret is made public, you will not be able to become the king of the pirates." However, if you are my subordinate, you will still be free except for the completion of the tasks I have given you. Take 10,000 steps back, when the time comes, you think it's not good to be my subordinate, you can go out to do things, and what can I do with you? β
Klockdahl fell into deep thought. What Shen Ming said was not wrong, especially the last sentence "What can you do with him once you leave", which was deeply engraved into Klockdahl's heart and made his mind come alive.
To say that before, Tsunade still looked like he was watching a play, and he wasn't worried about losing the gamble at all. So now, after Shen Ming's rhetoric, Tsunade is already a little panicked: this gamble that is completely impossible for Shen Ming to win according to common sense, can it really be turned into magic by Shen Ming, and make the impossible possible, right?
"Will you do anything to me, let me go as long as I promise to be your subordinate?" Klockdahl asked half-incredulously.
"Of course." Shen Ming tried his best to use words to lower Klockdahl's vigilance: "But you have to think about it carefully, if you really break your word and promise me to run away when you go out in the future, I will expose your secret!" β
That being said, Shen Ming was not at all worried that Klockdahl would defect. Because now all this is just to make Klockdahl lose his guard, Shen Ming's complete control of Klockdahl's reliance is all the "King's Soul Contract Talisman" obtained after completing the [Quest Newcomer] achievement!
Shen Ming's words really worked!
Klockdahl finally believed Shen Ming, and he thought that Shen Ming was relying on him to blackmail him, and he had mastered his little secret.
"I'm locked up by you, and if you release the news, the whole world will believe that the news is true." Klockdahl calculated in his heart: "But as long as I go out, I will continue to stir up the wind and rain on the sea...... At that time, when the king of a country says such a ridiculous thing, how many people in the whole world will believe it? The name of the Seven Martial Seas under the king is much greater than that of the king of a country! When the time comes, I won't have to do anything, and countless people will laugh at you, the king, for bragging and not making drafts! β
Thinking of this, Klockdahl felt that he had completely settled on Shen Ming.
"Okay, you're amazing!" Klockdahl was secretly happy in his heart, but on the surface, he pretended to be humiliated and burdened, and said sadly: "I didn't expect that I, Klockdahl, would be caught by you little boy in the end, and I had to become your subordinate." β
Shen Ming's heart was overjoyed, and he secretly called to himself: "System, use the [King's Soul Contract Talisman]!" β
"Ding! Please select who you want to use! β
"Klockdahl in front of me!"
"Ding! The King's Soul Contract Charm has been successfully bound, please ask him to swear allegiance to you. During the oath process, the subject must not have the slightest suspicion about you, and after the oath is completed, you will bind the soul contract with Klockdahl! β
Shen Mingxi was overjoyed, like a big bad wolf flickering the little white rabbit, and said to Klokdahl with a smile: "Then, you swear allegiance to me!" I won't give you any poison, just a sincere oath of allegiance to me. β
"Cut, I'm too young, I'm so naΓ―ve and naΓ―ve!" Klockdahl thought disdainfully: "In this troubled world, how much money is an oath worth and can it be used for a fart?" With a small handle, I thought I would eat the old lady, ahh Now I swear to you respectfully and sincerely, and when I go out, I will turn my face and deny people, and I will run away! β
Shen Ming continued: "If you think about it, let's start. β
Klockdahl had already despised Shen Ming in his heart, and he didn't doubt him in his heart, so he knelt down on one knee without any doubts, and said with a heart full of happiness and happiness that he was about to regain his freedom: "I'm stupid, ahhh Do it all over again! β
"I, Klockdar, the Sand of the Sands, hereby solemnly swear: I will recognize Naferutali Shen Ming as king, become his loyal subordinate, and do my best for him for the rest of my life!"
A satisfied smile appeared on Shen Ming's face.
"Ding! [King's Soul Contract Talisman] has been bound successfully! β
"Huh?!" Klockdahl was stunned: what was this voice that suddenly appeared in his head?
Shen Ming didn't know that he was not the only one who heard the system prompt sound, his attention at the moment was completely focused on the system prompt sound that appeared later.
"Ding! Congratulations on earning the second place Rare subordinate: Sand Klokdal! β
This system prompt made Shen Ming suddenly realize a problem: Tsunade was not weak at all compared to Mei Ming and Klokdahl. But why, haven't you collected the prompts of the three rare subordinates yet? Could it be that the summoned Tsunade is not now considered his own subordinate?
