"You, seize her!"
President Jiang coldly pointed at Xiaobai, who had just walked in.
For a while.
The black-clad ship girls who had been sitting around the private room instantly transformed into streaks of black shadow, flashing like ghosts in front of Xiaobai.
Thick, long cannon barrels extended from behind the ship girls, pressed against Xiaobai's body, and aimed at Xiaobai's forehead.
The massive ship equipment unleashed by the black-clad ship girls.
In an instant, it filled almost half of the entire private room.
"Huh?!" Xiao Bai stared blankly at the sudden change in the situation, momentarily unable to react. "President Jiang... this is..."
“Miss Lu… I just asked you three times whether you wanted a monopoly with us. I gave you a chance.” President Jiang said, looking down at the bewildered Xiao Bai with his hands behind his back. “You’re courting death.”
"what?"
"Do you really think I'm stupid?" Looking at Xiaobai's bewildered expression, President Jiang clicked his tongue. "After that phone call, I immediately instructed my subordinates to investigate. The number one mercenary group is definitely not some rookie mercenary group!"
"Uh..." Xiaobai blinked, "This... um..."
"The reason I didn't expose you at the beginning was firstly because I was thinking that when you're out doing business, it's better to avoid trouble. If you were a mercenary group that came here with the intention of making a deal, I would have just taken a loss and pretended to be unaware of what was going on and traded with you." President Jiang looked down at Xiaobai, his eyes filled with barely suppressed anger. "I gave you opportunities, more than once, but you didn't know what was good for you and even tried to test the people behind me... then I can't let you live."
"..." Xiao Bai looked at the several dark cannon barrels pointing at his head beside him, "So... President Jiang, you knew from the beginning..."
President Jiang stood with his hands behind his back, a slight smile playing on his lips.
"A mercenary group of unknown origin that can't even produce cash wants to make a deep deal with me and monopolize information in the deep sea? Hmph, how naive." President Jiang looked coldly at Xiaobai. "Why do you think I brought so many ship girls tonight?"
"Uh..." Xiaobai looked embarrassed, as if he had been rebuffed.
Just now.
suddenly.
With the thunderous roar of cannons.
Suddenly, the roar of battle erupted from the hall outside the private room.
Accompanied by faint noises.
The entire private room trembled for a few seconds.
Then it quieted down.
President Jiang silently looked at the door of the private room, then turned to look at Xiaobai.
“Miss Lu, I’m just a businessman, trying to make a living. I have no interest in knowing who sent you to test us, nor do I want to know.” President Jiang coughed lightly twice. “Those black-clad ship girls outside are all powerful ship girls of medium to large-sized class. Your companions who were left outside have probably already been subdued by the ship girls… I have no interest in beauty, but you… I’m afraid you’re going to die here.”
As Mr. Jiang finished speaking, he pushed open the door to the private room with a smile.
"Don't blame me for being ruthless, I'll let you see your companion one last time." President Jiang walked out the door, confidently looking into the hall. "This glance is my final act of mercy. I hope you won't... uh??"
Mr. Jiang's words were cut short by a gasp of surprise that escaped his throat.
In the lobby of the small restaurant.
Ooi and Kitakami rubbed their wrists with uncomplaining expressions, blaming each other.
"Hey, Beishang, haven't you done this in years? You've gotten worse."
"none."
"Huh? But I just took down eight, and you only took down seven."
"Because they are close to you."
"Excuse!"
"Nothing."
"..."
Oi and Kitakami's bodies.
Pompeii sat on the floor not far away, panting. Compared to the unharmed Daiki Kitakami, Pompeii's clothes were quite torn. She touched her slightly tattered bra, tightly covering the soft white expanse of her chest under her forearm, and looked around in a daze.
A dozen or so black-clad ship girls, their clothes tattered, lay sprawled on the floor around the well and the northern area. Their bodies were charred black, and they remained silent, all unconscious.
These are the ship girls that President Jiang considers to be the strongest fighting force.
At this moment, it was like a tiny ant scrambling for something between Dai-i and Kitakami, utterly defenseless.
President Jiang stared blankly at the situation in the hall, his mouth agape.
"This..." President Jiang stared blankly at the situation in the hall.
"President Jiang." A soft voice called out from the private room.
President Jiang turned around.
Little White smiled without changing its expression, its eyes narrowed as it smiled at itself.
"Well... how should I put it?" Xiaobai raised her hand and gently touched the cannon barrel closest to her. "I apologize for deceiving you..."
"But... how should I put it?"
"May I ask, Mr. Jiang, could we continue our discussion about the monopoly issue you mentioned?"
Xiao Bai asked in a very gentle voice.
then.
A crunch.
One of the cannon barrels was aimed at Xiaobai's forehead.
A ring of sparks flew out.
Subsequently.
It's like clay.
Xiaobai pinched his hand into a completely concave shape.
Chapter 1344 I'm sorry, I'm a police officer
"Creak—"
A sickening metallic creaking sound, accompanied by a hissing and sparking, emanated from the ship's gun barrel that Xiaobai had crushed.
A series of thuds followed, the sound of retreating steps.
Beside Xiaobai, the black-clad ship girls who had raised their ship-mounted gun turrets and were aiming them intently at Xiaobai's head stared in disbelief at the cannon barrel that Xiaobai had crushed, their faces filled with utter astonishment.
Although the composition of the ship girls' armor metal is not much different from that of high-grade steel building materials, the ship girls' armor metal possesses a very special and mysterious power inside. It is like an enchantment that greatly increases the defensive capabilities of the ship girls' armor and also gives the ship girls the special effect of being able to effectively damage deep-sea amphibious ships.
This special power is usually hidden inside the ship's rigging metal. It only overflows from the rigging metal when the ship girl's rigging is severely damaged, forming a mysterious defensive barrier called "damage protection" to further protect the ship girl's body from serious injury.
--in other words.
It means the armor of the ship girls is really, really tough.
To damage a ship girl's equipment, only shells fired by other ship girls or attacks from deep-sea amphibious ships can be effective.
but.
This little kid dressed in a boy's outfit crushed the ship girl's cannon barrel as easily as if he were holding a lump of clay?!
The black-clad ship girls stared in astonishment at the flattened cannon barrel, looking at Xiaobai in the middle of the private room as if they had seen a ghost.
Confusion, shock, bewilderment, and even fear—these impactful emotions crashed against the hearts of the ship girls like waves crashing against rocks.
Unscientific?
That's my own ship equipment!
Robust, reliable, and powerful ship armor...
How come it's as fragile as a tube of clay in this little boy's hands?
Clatter. Clatter.
Scattered footsteps followed.
When their proud ship equipment was casually crushed by Xiaobai, the black-clad ship girls present were bewildered for a while before they all retreated like mice seeing a cat, pressing themselves against the wall behind them in shock, their faces turning pale with fright.
Xiaobai didn't look at the ship girls in the private room who were so frightened that they clung to the walls.
Xiao Bai simply smiled as he looked at President Jiang, who was staring at him in disbelief outside the door, before slowly walking out of the private room.
"President Jiang? Um, did you hear what I just said?" Xiao Bai walked up to President Jiang, looked up, and smiled at him with a friendly expression.
"Pfft!"
President Jiang plopped down on the ground, his mouth agape, staring in horror at the smiling Xiao Bai. His upper lip slapped against his lower lip violently, and his legs trembled uncontrollably.
"You...you're also a ship...ship girl?" President Jiang looked at Xiaobai tremblingly, the color draining from his face at an alarming rate.
"Haha... Well, how should I put it... I guess you could say that."
Xiao Bai smiled at President Jiang.
The reason why Xiaobai crushed the ship's turret that was aimed at him was not actually just to show off.
However, given the situation just now, if Xiaobai hadn't shown her strength (physical), this General Jiang might have had the ship girls in the private room take her hostage to threaten the three ship girls in the main hall in the next second.
Neither Ooi nor Kitakami knew that they possessed ship equipment, let alone Pompeii. In the eyes of the three of them, she was just a weak and delicate girl. If President Jiang really kidnapped her, these three ship girls might do something outrageous in the next second to protect her safety.
That kind of development would be extremely troublesome.
So, Xiaobai just showed off his strength (physical) a little, using simple actions to tell the ship girls in the private room and President Jiang at the door the difference in strength between the two sides.
Of course, doing so could also have negative consequences.
For example, how to explain the source of his power to Ooi Kitakami and Pompeii later is a very troublesome matter.
But things will work themselves out.
Since both sides are troublesome, Xiaobai naturally chooses the plot development that causes the least trouble.
President Jiang, slumped on the ground, stared in horror at the smiling Xiao Bai.
After Xiaobai replied.
President Jiang's pupils also contracted sharply.
Then, President Jiang suddenly turned over, knelt down in front of Xiaobai, and raised his hands high.
"Heroine...Heroine! I...I was wrong! I didn't recognize your greatness, please...I confess, I confess, I confess everything! Please don't...don't kill me!" President Jiang trembled as he clasped his hands together and kowtowed repeatedly to Xiaobai.
President Jiang is a man with a strong will to survive.
In such a situation, although many things happened that Jiang could not understand, his surging will to survive and the intuition he had developed over many years of navigating the social world made him choose to kneel down and beg for mercy.
"..." Xiao Bai silently watched President Jiang, who was almost in tears.
how to say.
He truly is a member of society.
Beg for mercy when you should, without any hesitation.
He is as reasonable as the leader of the Huai Ren Mercenary Group.
"Tip... Commander!" At that moment, Daijing Beishang also ran towards Xiaobai. Daijing reached Xiaobai immediately, spread his arms, and like a mother hen, tightly protected Xiaobai behind him. He stared at President Jiang kneeling on the ground in front of him with a vigilant expression. "Are you alright?"
"Ah, thank you, Daii. I'm fine."
"As soon as you went in, the black-clad ship girls in the hall suddenly attacked us. Although Kitakami and I dodged the first wave of attacks, Pompeii was ambushed by the black-clad ship girls, and her ship equipment was severely damaged." Ooi reported the situation to Shiro, glancing at Shiro several times. "So we had no choice but to take action..."
"It's alright, don't mind it. You two, Oi and Kitakami, were acting in self-defense. It's okay to take action." Xiaobai smiled at Oi.
"Huh? Why are there so many people in the private room?" Kitakami walked to the door of the private room and glanced inside. When he first saw that the room was full of ship girls in black, Kitakami quickly took a step back and released his ship equipment to prepare for battle. However, after seeing that all the ship girls in the room had pale faces, were cowering against the wall, and were staring at the door with frightened expressions, Kitakami curiously closed the door and looked at Shiro.
"As for them... well, they shouldn't do anything too outrageous." Xiaobai smiled at Dajing Beishang, her gaze finally returning to President Jiang kneeling on the ground.
Looking at President Jiang.
Xiao Bai's gaze was calm.
"President Jiang, didn't you just say that you confessed to everything?"
"Yes! Yes! I confess, I confess everything!" President Jiang nodded hurriedly.
"Then let's continue talking about the monopoly issue." Xiao Bai said, glancing at President Jiang's kneeling position for a moment before silently walking from in front of him to his side and squatting down beside him. "You'll answer me honestly, right?"
