One Piece: I am the Master of Black Magic
Chapter 194 Negotiation
A grand banquet was held in Dragon Palace City. A series of special seafood delicacies were put on the table. Special snacks and deep-sea wine also made everyone full of praise.
Anne was not interested in seafood, but snacks and wine were very much to her liking.
"It is worthy of being a dessert that is remembered by big moms. It is well-deserved."
Her position was the first one next to Neptune. Hearing her words, Neptune frowned.He is a little more wary of the intelligence organization of the Higali Republic.
Everyone in the Straw Hats has completely focused on the food and nothing else.Neptune turned sideways and spoke to Anne in a low voice.
"I heard from Jinbei that your country is a very advanced and civilized country."
Anne smiled: "King, you can be more direct. We all know what you want, don't we?"
Neptune was stunned, obviously not expecting Anne to be so direct.
"I'm actually angry."
His voice was a little erratic: "My princess Otohime has dedicated her life to the survival and development of Fish-Man Island and advocates the concept of 'coexistence with mankind'.
Her biggest wish is that the mermaid clan can live openly under the sun, that the mermaid clan can not be discriminated against, and that everyone in the world can respect and recognize us. "
Recovering from the memories of the past, a wry smile appeared on his lips.
"So, when I learned about your country from Jinbei, I was really moved. Such a harmonious social environment and such a peaceful class order cannot be achieved even in our own country."
"I understand your request, but I can't take risks with Fishman Island. The fate of the entire fishman family is in my hands.
The World Government is very powerful, and I cannot for the time being give up my status as a member of the World Government and join your country as you have requested. "
"I think maybe Fishman Island can become an alliance with the Higali Republic, and we can help each other..."
"I think you got something wrong."
Anne interrupted him, with an expression on her face that was half a smile.
"We are not very interested in your Fish-Man Island. We only let Jinbei go there because he helped us in the war at the top, and I know what his dream is, so I showed him a clear path."
"As for you, King Neptune, you are not willing to give up your status as a member country, but you are also envious of the peaceful and civilized living environment of our republic. You are eating what is in the bowl and thinking about what is in the pot. There is nothing so good in the world."
"We don't need allies, and we don't need the help of your Fish-Man Island. To put it bluntly, what can you do to help us? With your weak military strength? Or are you the idiot who has been raised to waste? Sweet daughter’s unawakened abilities?”
The fluttering words exploded in his ears like thunder. Neptune's face changed drastically, and he looked at Anne in horror.
"How would you know?"
The sullen voice sounded, and Neptune's whole body was shaken, and his eyes were fixed on Anne sharply.
"Qiang~"
The long knife was unsheathed, and a green figure instantly appeared beside Anne. Everyone at the banquet table tensed up in an instant, staring at Neptune above him with unkind eyes.
Beads of sweat broke out on Jinbei's forehead. He didn't expect King Neptune's reaction to be so big, nor did he expect that Anne would know such a major secret.
Anne sat on the chair leisurely and looked directly at Neptune.
"When we were on Sky Island, we got news about Poseidon, the King of the Sea, from the stone tablet in the historical text. Also, didn't Jinbe tell you that I can read minds?"
"But that's not important anymore. But you have to be clear about one thing. It's your Fish-Man Island who needs us Higali, not us Higali who needs you."
He reached out and took Zoro's wrist, shaking his head slightly.
Zoro sheathed his sword and sat back in his seat.The rest of the people also looked away and focused on the food on the table.
Neptune's face looked a little ugly, and the princes looked even more confused. They didn't even know why the atmosphere was so tense just now.
"Your Majesty the King, Miss Anne, we are discussing this matter in a friendly and peaceful manner. There is no need to make the atmosphere so tense. Do you think that is right?"
The good old Jinbei was there to smooth things over. After all, he was her future partner. Anne nodded respectfully, raised her glass to Neptune, and drank it in one gulp.
Jinbe breathed a sigh of relief and cast his twinkling eyes at Neptune. Neptune breathed a sigh of relief and took a sip from the wine glass in front of him.
Seeing her on the road, Annie's tone became much gentler.
"There is no need to discuss this matter. My country does not need an alliance. We will always insist on the position of having only one country. If you are willing to accept it, merge into Higali and become a member of the Higali Republic. Work with us Fight the world government. Work together for freedom and equality. If you don’t agree, just pretend it has never been mentioned and we won’t care.”
"The World Conference is coming soon. I'll give you time. You can give me an answer after the conference is over."
"By the way, I would like to remind you in a friendly manner, if the existence of Higali is leaked to you, then Fish-Man Island will usher in its demise."
Annie licked the corners of her mouth with a smile, and a trace of bloodthirsty killing intent flashed in her eyes.
Neptune nodded with a livid face, feeling humiliated but helpless.Without the strength to match it, even the obvious threats can only be greeted with a smile.
Jinbei sighed. Although he had expected this outcome, he did not expect Anne's attitude to be so tough.
The king's original idea was to secretly form an alliance with Higali and provide support secretly.They do not plan to join other countries, and still hope that Fish-Man Island will be an independent entity and be governed by the Dragon Palace royal family.
After all, no one dares to rashly leave the fate of one ethnic group to the hands of another ethnic group. Just like joining the World Government Alliance 200 years ago, in fact, the situation of the fish-men family has not changed, but human trafficking has become more and more rampant.
If the Higali Republic can really overthrow the world government, then their Fishman Island can truly become independent. Under the influence of Higali's concept of peace and freedom, the fishman family will usher in a new tomorrow.
If they fail, the fishmen can preserve themselves, and maintaining the status quo is better than being wiped out by the world government.
Although Jinbei advised that this behavior would cause dissatisfaction with Anne, Neptune did not care. After all, in his eyes, the possibility of the revolution's success was slim.
Anne is just a young girl, and Higali is just a new revolutionary force. They have only accumulated strength for more than ten years. How can they fight against the world government that has stood in the sea for 800 years.
It's just that those ideas were too exciting, and they also gave him a faint hope in his heart. What if, what if they succeeded?Maybe Otohime's dream can really come true?
Anne was not interested in seafood, but snacks and wine were very much to her liking.
