I don't want to be a general, I choose Buddhism

"Sorry, Yamato, I was seriously injured in the attack of the revolutionary army last time, and I have been recuperating until now before I recovered, so the World Government arranged for me CP9 as a temporary guard."

"Guard?"

Yamato's expression was a little surprised, and he said with some doubts while leading Yaen towards the station.

"The guy named Lu Qi behind you can understand, but the other six guys are too weak, right? To you, it's more like a burden."

Ion smiled and replied. "No, Yamato, everyone has a talent that he is good at, and also has a use that he can use his talent..."

……

Soon, under the guidance of Yamato, Yan came to a Japanese-style courtyard and entered the reception room.

In the reception room, the banquet has been prepared in advance, with a variety of dishes and mellow wine.

"Come on, take a seat."

Yamato pulled Yan to the upper position and sat down together.

But the next moment, those warriors who followed Yamato filed in began to persuade. "Master Guangyue, this does not meet..."

"boom!!"

The domineering look on Yamato's body burst out suddenly, and the eyes under the ghost mask were full of unparalleled majesty, said.

"It's almost enough. This is my private banquet, and it's also a rare gathering between Ian and Ian. It's you who should leave."

"Yes, Master Guangyue."

The warriors looked at each other, as if they were communicating with each other, and then they slowly exited the reception room.

And Lu Qi also followed the warriors out of the reception room after receiving Yann's gaze, and closed the door.

"Hu~~"

Yamato took a long breath, and took off the ghost mask on his face, but the delicate face under the mask showed an expression as if he had been saved, and complained.

"Those guys are so annoying. They follow the rules and etiquette all day long. Ian, you know? It's been a torturous time..."

Listening to Yamato's chattering complaints, Yan smiled, and did not express any opinions, but simply responded.

"Forget it, don't talk about these annoying things, come on, come on, when you were hanging out with me in the past, you didn't have a chance to have a good meal. This time, I must treat you well."

While talking, Yamato ate the meat without any image, and did not forget to tear off part of the piece of meat he was eating and handed it to Yan.

Compared with the big and rude way of eating, Yaen picked up the chopsticks and simply tasted the dishes, and responded.

"Well, it is indeed a rare reunion. I originally thought that I would leave Wano after that war. I don't know when we will meet again next time."

After a pause, Ian continued. "Speaking of which, the last time the revolutionary army attacked the G-9 branch, it was thanks to your timely assistance, otherwise it might have been bad."

"Don't say those unnecessary thanks, we are partners, aren't we?" Yamato said casually.

"Yes, buddy..."

But before Ian finished speaking, Yamato suddenly handed a bowl of wine to Ian, staring at Ion with those amber eyes, and said.

"As partners, we have never really had a drink with each other. I heard that only when drinking can people fully open their hearts, so how about we have a communication without any extra cover?"

Until this moment, Yan's expression couldn't help but froze.

Yamato, did you realize something?Or... have many unnecessary thoughts sprouted?

Immediately, Ian said helplessly. "Yamato, I...don't know how to drink."

"I know, Yizang told me that among the rumors about 'Naval Hero' Ian, there has never been a record of his drinking..."

After a pause, Yamato continued.

"But what does it matter? We are partners, it doesn't matter even if we are drunk, so we can hear each other's voices."

At this moment, Yan was caught in a dilemma.

Alcohol... It doesn't mean that Ian gets drunk as soon as he drinks it.

But Yaen knew very well that he was humiliating himself by competing with these monster-like guys in terms of drinking capacity, and once drunk, the more rational people like himself, the more crazy they would appear, and they would do something. It's really hard to say what's going on.

At this moment, one of Yamato's hands slowly pressed on Yaen's chest, his amber eyes fixed on Yaen, and he spoke.

"Ian, I know the purpose of your visit this time - 'King Shichibukai', right?"

Yan's eyelids drooped slightly, making it difficult to judge the eyes, and then nodded slowly.

"Then you should also know that once I join the 'King Shichibukai', it symbolizes that the last local forces of 'Wano Country' will completely get in touch with the World Government."

Speaking of this, Yamato seemed a little irritable, and casually tugged at the collar of his kimono, as if he wanted to relieve the irritability by doing this, and then continued.

"Although that is a way for Wano Country to completely lift the policy of "closing the country behind closed doors", isn't that too passive? Wano Country is not ready at all. The Revolutionary Army, Pirates, and...the Navy are all in Occupying Wano Country."

"Ion, I am very irritable! In the past, you have taught me a lot, and the warriors under my command have also taught me a lot."

Yamato stared at Yan firmly and said.

"At this stage, in-depth contact with the world government is no less than letting Wano's last hope dance on a tightrope! I can't trust you, and I can't trust the navy. This is the warning given to me by the samurai."

"so……"

Yamato pushed the bowl of wine towards Yan again and said. "Can you drink this wine to the full and tell me how to choose?"

Chapter 6 Thirty "Intense" Negotiations

Yan stared into Yamato's amber eyes, which rarely revealed a trace of complexity.

The woman in front of me seems to have remained unchanged from beginning to end. Everything she does is on the standpoint of Wano Country. For her, her childhood, her hometown, and her dreams are Wano Country. .

It's quite pure, as pure as Luffy's dream of being the One Piece, and he doesn't care about his position as a naval hero grandfather.

In the past, Yamato had never concealed her hostility with her father Kaido for the sake of peace in the country of Wano.

Now, even if Yamato already understands what the world government and the navy represent, she is still not afraid of the size of the world government and the navy when she is in the middle of the complicated situation of Wano country, trying to win her dream of Wano country. Independence and the founding of a country?

In a daze, Yaen took the wine bowl in Yamato's hand, but said something. "Yamato, your amber eyes are so pure, and the light shining with dreams is also very beautiful."

"Huh? Huh?"

Immediately, Yamato's expression froze, and then he spoke in an extremely unnatural way, a little at a loss. "Stupid... idiot, who told you to say this?"

But looking at Yamato's expression, Yann felt a little surprised.

Yamato, who has always been careless and does not regard himself as a woman at all, would show such an expression?

Immediately, Yan looked down at the crystal-clear wine in his hand, which was a kind of sake unique to Wano Country, and said.

"Yamato, that's my evaluation of you. The person who shines with the light of pure dreams really has a different kind of cuteness and charm. It's no wonder that you can wipe out all the remaining samurai forces in Wano Kingdom in just a few months. subdue."

"Humph~~"

Yamato, who seemed inexplicably flustered, snorted coldly in an awkward tone, as if he wanted to express disdain for Yan's exaggeration, but the unconsciously elongated tone seemed to be acting like a baby, which also made Yamato's expression even more awkward Feeling unnatural, he simply grabbed his wine bowl and touched Yan.

"Goooooooooo~"

Yamato drank his own large bowl of wine almost instantly.

Seeing this, Yaen seemed to be infected by Yamato's arrogance, and also drank with Yamato.

"It seems that it doesn't matter if you are a little bit unscrupulous today. After you happen to be drunk, it is easier to explain what happened later..." Yan thought secretly.

As Yamato watched Yan drink the fine wine, he couldn't help but burst into an incomparably bright and beautiful smile, and said with a big laugh.

"Hahaha, sure enough, those idiots don't understand you at all, and they don't understand the friendship between us. They even told me not to believe you, and insisted that you would not dare to drink and lose your mind no matter what."

"Yamato, it's hard to measure true friendship with what's in the cup, but since it's your invitation, it's a good choice to fill it up a bit."

Yamato heard the words, but his interest was completely high, and he drank with Yaen boldly.

"That's right, Ian, come again..."

……

Outside the reception room, Lu Qi stood alone with his back to the door, with a stern expression, not showing any weakness to the many warriors in front of him, but like a beast looking down at its prey.

It was obvious that Lu Qi was just a person, but these warriors who were once famous in Wano Kingdom felt inexplicably jealous.

In particular, Inuarashi and Cat Viper, who are fur tribes, almost subconsciously popped out their claws hidden in their fleshy palms, their canine teeth were slightly exposed, and their hair stood upright.

Noticing the abnormality of Inuarashi and Nekomushi, who were also one of the former "Nine Heroes of Red Sheaths", Denjiro couldn't help asking with some doubts.

"Inuarashi, Maomushi, what's the matter with your condition?"

"This is an instinctive reaction. This guy has a dangerous aura." Mao Viper's tone was full of fear.

Inuarashi, who is also a fur tribe, followed suit.

"Although I really want to laugh at the cowardice of the idiot Cat Viper, but this guy is right, this guy is very dangerous, even more dangerous than the previous CP0s made me feel."

When the rest of the warriors heard this, they looked at Lu Qi with extreme caution.

To be able to make Momomushi and Inuarashi, two guys who are quite at odds with each other, also admit the threat is enough to show the degree of danger of the man in front of him.

But... this is the territory of the samurai!

Denjiro folded his hands on his chest, staring at Lu Qi with crescent-shaped eyes showing a dangerous feeling, and said.

"CP9 guy, please stay away from the reception room, otherwise I will have to consider your intentions."

Lu Qi cast a glance at Denjiro, and then at the rest of the warriors, his expression didn't change at all, and he didn't even intend to speak.

Immediately, under the signal of Denjiro's eyes, many samurai showed their gestures of attacking one after another, as if intending to forcibly subdue Lu Qi.

Feeling the naked hostility, Lu Qi lowered his hands on his chest and raised his head slightly.

At this moment, Lu Qi's eyes under the brim of his hat have turned into a frightening azure blue full of wildness and fighting spirit, and Lu Qi's body shape has also faintly noticed some changes, revealing an invisible aggressiveness.

The situation was on the verge of breaking out, and the confrontation lasted for a long time, but the two sides never really made a move.

Apart from being wary of the danger revealed by Lu Qi, the warriors were also hesitant that a direct attack would affect the negotiations between Yamato and Lieutenant General Yan in the reception room.

Lu Qi was purely waiting for the action of the warriors.

As long as those warriors take the lead, Lu Qi will not hesitate to tear these guys who dare to disturb Lord Ian to pieces.

"Humph!"

Denjiro snorted coldly, relaxed his hand on the scabbard, and said instead. "I stay here with Inuarashi and Momomushi, and the rest spread out to surround the courtyard."

And Lu Qi didn't respond to the actions of these warriors enclosing the entire courtyard, and still guarded the door of the reception room motionless.

Lu Qi is very clear that those guys are not qualified to threaten Lord Yaen, all he needs to do is to prevent these guys from disturbing Lord Yaen's important negotiations.

As the only Lu Qi who knew Yaen's real plan during this trip, he knew very well whether Lord Yaen could persuade Yamato to join the "Seven Martial Seas under the King", which would affect which plan to implement in the future.

'At this time, the verbal negotiations between Lord Yaen and Yamato should have reached a very intense level, right? '

Not only Lu Qi, but even the six CP0s who had ambushed in different positions of the "Warriors of the Beasts" in advance thought the same way.

Based on the attitude expressed by Yamato in the past, the level of negotiation this time should be quite difficult and...intense.

Chapter 631 I Treat You as a Partner

"Gulu Gulu~~~"

In the reception room filled with the unique smell of sake, Yamato gulped down the wine, and his movements and demeanor exuded a unique charm of a heroine.

"boom!"

Yamato put the wine jar on the ground, hiccupped, and said to Yan with flushed cheeks.

"You...you didn't say you don't know how to drink, but... hiccup, you can still drink..."

Yaen finished his cup in a chic manner, and said with a smile. "It's not that you can't drink at all, but you can drink a little bit..."

Just as Yan is aware of his physical weakness, so while doing everything possible to strengthen his physical strength, he will also make up for it by specializing in the speed of "Shunpo".

Yan's poor drinking capacity has a great relationship with his health, but it is not completely irreparable.

For example, in Luo's research institute, the somewhat special research project set up for this purpose - "Research on Life Factors Related to Alcohol Dehydrogenase and Acetaldehyde Dehydrogenase" has achieved quite stable results, and has already applied When it came to Yan's body, the content of alcohol dehydrogenase and acetaldehyde dehydrogenase in Yan's body was greatly improved.
