People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

"Yes!" x2

"Alright, you can go and rest now. There will be new instructions in the next few days."

Gion and the others nodded and left. The Five Elders said in a deep voice, "Now everything is clear, but this is good news. Gion and the others' success can be said to have given us a great springboard and opportunity."

Tsuru clenched her fist inwardly. Sure enough, this kind of thing would definitely happen once Gion and the others succeeded. But fortunately, Gion's words just now made her feel a little more at ease. Maybe it really is a good ending.

Chapter 634 Kalifa's Inquiry, The Chosen Sisters (Please Subscribe~)

Domino and his three companions waited quietly in the lounge. No one was allowed to come over, and no one dared to.

Domino breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Gion-nee, what you just said sounded a bit strange."

"That's right... I downplayed the real issues in your conflict, making it seem like I was the one who approached you, so all the focus is on me, and whatever I say goes... But, because I was the one who actively sought you out, that means..."

"what?"

"This shows that I am not opposed to such behavior. So when they send people over, I will have to act as a bridge. You just need to remain silent."

Little Sadie pursed her lips and said, "Gion-nee... thank you for your hard work... you've been thinking about this for so long..."

Gion smiled and said, "What are you talking about? I'll just have to say a few more words later. You all call me older sister, how could I not take care of my younger sister?"

Domino and the other two pursed their lips and remained silent. Meanwhile, in the conference room on the other side, the scene was also quite strange, for the sake of three things.

The first thing they did was issue an order to recruit beautiful women from the navy and member states to bring over as a sign of sincerity, but even this first order made Sengoku and his men's expressions turn very strange.

"This is the list! Lieutenant General Tsuru! Your granddaughter is one of the most suitable candidates in terms of appearance, figure, and position. The Holy Land will remember everything she has done."

He gritted his teeth for a long time before closing his eyes, letting out a sigh of relief, and said, "I have no objection."

Everything was normal until now, since it was all expected.

"Very good! In addition to the personnel list above... Kalifa!"

Kalifa, standing to the side, also twitched her brow. She wondered why she had suddenly been promoted to CP0. When Gion said those words earlier, she had vaguely guessed something, and she knew that when the Five Elders were selecting names, Kalifa's heart had raced. Now it seemed...

"You are a member of CP0, so it's time for you to serve the Holy Land faithfully."

Kalifa pursed her lips. She couldn't imagine what would happen if she shook her head. Kalifa secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yes! Kalifa obeys..."

"Okay! Very good! You will meet up with Vice Admiral Momousagi and the others shortly. At the latest, people will come to meet you one after another, and your promotions will be announced collectively then."

"Yes!"

Everyone silently watched Kalifa. Wow, her composure was definitely something for CP0. But then her expression almost betrayed her true feelings...

After the list was read out, Kalifa was completely stunned. Sengoku and the others could only watch silently. Then the Five Elders continued, "After our unanimous discussion, a batch of gifts will be sent with you, but now we know the truth."

"Giving money to families like that would be an insult. They have no interest in or respect for power and influence. But if you're going to give a gift, you should give the whole thing. A gift will be sent, and you should take it with you. Someone will deliver it to Lieutenant General Momousagi."

"Next, the last thing is that the marriage must be kept secret. If the pirates and other restless guys find out, they might do the same. Especially since we know that Fire Fist Ace went there before, it's hard to guarantee that he won't bring other pirates with him."

"Yes!"xn

However, Garp and the others also knew one thing: this third matter was definitely not as simple as it seemed. Even if the Celestial Dragons' face was trampled on, they still had to maintain their pride, and they could not possibly reveal that they were begging for mercy through marriage.

After the meeting ended, Sengoku and the others remained silent. Kali, however, gritted her teeth, let out a silent sigh, and walked towards the door under the watchful eyes of another CP0 member.

"Where are you going?"

"Find Vice Admiral Momousagi."

The CP0 officer merely narrowed his eyes and followed her out. Kalifa walked all the way to the lounge, where the CP0 officer stood silently by the door. This was the purpose of his coming with Kalifa; if Kalifa had tried to run away or had refused as she had just done, he would have killed her.

Gion and the others on the other side turned around when they heard the door open. When they saw Kalifa, Gion was stunned for a moment and said, "You came here... It seems you're on the list too?"

Kalifa breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Yes...you really..."

Gion nodded and said, "There's no need to lie, and this is not something I can lie about. Besides, I'm a great swordsman, and doing so would only damage my mental state."

"Did you marry into those families willingly? Were you willing to share your husbands with others? And with so many incredibly powerful men at that."

“We truly love our husbands. As for the reluctance... there is a little bit of that. After all, our husbands are too outstanding and too good. Everyone would want to have them all to themselves. But many people in our family have suffered too much and have been wandering for who knows how long. They all yearn for their own home.”

"Everyone wants a home of their own. It is because of this group of people that we cherish each other so much. Because we know the taste of pain and loss, we would never think of driving our sisters away."

Kalifa breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Is he good to you?"

“My husband is a very gentle and considerate person, and now that no one dares to lay a hand on you, do you think what he did back then was right or wrong? You don’t need to say anything, I will watch your eyes.”

Kalifa paused for a moment, then sighed and said, "You've changed a lot since then."

"Because I've seen a lot, that world is very relaxed and peaceful, life is enjoyable and comfortable, and your family won't treat you with scrutiny or exclusion. Moreover, my husband is also exceptionally good at enjoying life and has many skills you wouldn't expect."

"Oh? Like private?"

"Racing, pottery, doll making, fishing, and so on. My husband believes that we should live life to the fullest and live without regrets. So he will suddenly think of something and set off on a trip. He also learns a lot while traveling."

Before Kalifa could speak, Gion chuckled and said, "My husband's cooking skills are the best in the world too..."

Kalifa took off her glasses, closed her eyes, and seemed to be thinking about something for a long time before she said softly, "The list is out, and it includes many naval officers and princesses from member states."

"We all..."

"And Alpha."

"Who?"

"My sister..."

"Um?!"

Chapter 635 Kalifa's Curiosity, Little Sadie's Answer (Please Subscribe~)

This statement surprised Gion and the others. When Koala summarized the people, she didn't mention this person, so he probably didn't hold any official position. However, it seems that many of the people who come will be people she didn't expect.

Kalifa briefly recounted the contents of the meeting, including the list of attendees. Gion nodded to herself, as they already knew most of it.

"So, someone should be coming over tonight."

"Yes, the conferment ceremony will also be held tonight, but you and Major General Tina should just emphasize it again."

Tina crossed her arms and said, "Tina is very curious about what kind of gift they're talking about. Is it a Devil Fruit?"

Domino nodded and said, "I think so too, but I wonder what kind of fruit it is..."

Gion breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I don't know about the others, but they are definitely top-tier fruits. Some of them won't even appear in the encyclopedia. Lucy and the others are going to have some fun now."

"They say it's just for fun, but even the top-tier Devil Fruits are beneath Lucy and the others. For them, Devil Fruits can only do what they can do or what they don't care about. They also have side effects and limitations... But I guess they might be interested in researching a few."

"You're right, research would definitely be a long way off. Shu is currently researching the fourth-generation mecha, preparing to obtain the Twilight Cherry, researching reagents for Touka, and planning to research further human enhancement herself. Devil Fruits don't disappear, so she definitely doesn't have time to research them now."

Little Sadie tilted her head and said, "I wonder if there are any fruits suitable for my sisters at home..."

"Little Sadie, do you want some?"

"Huh? It's not that I don't want to at all, but taking it would have side effects, and there's no fighting over there. Compared to that, I'd rather spend more time with my husband... um... and avoid the seawater. I just saw a really cool swimsuit, and I was planning to wear it to show my husband off someday..."

"First of all, you don't necessarily have to go swimming at the beach to wear a swimsuit. Secondly, there are side effects, as Lucy and the others can also use magic. Finally, I wonder if the shop's last upgrade will increase the protection range for the proprietress to this extent."

"I'll see then. Isn't Nami quite interested in that Yunyun?"

"But she hasn't made up her mind yet, hmm? It seems like you have a lot of questions."

Kalifa sighed and said, "After all, I'm curious about being sent for a political marriage, but you don't seem to be planning to talk about it right now."

Gion breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Once everyone has arrived, I will take you to the starting point and tell you the rest of the story. No one else needs to know about these parts, as they are family matters."

Kalifa paused for a moment and said, "Family matters...family?"

"how?"

"It's nothing, I just haven't heard that word in a long time."

"Hmm? Then you'll really like it there, since everyone here is either homeless or longing for a home, and they're all coming together."

"I hope so... I never thought I would get married this way, no... I never thought I would get married and share my husband with someone else."

Tina shrugged and said, "I never thought of this before, but you'll understand once you meet your husbands, your family, and the life and world there. Until then, you just need to clear your mind and wait patiently. We still have about half a month before we set off."

"So long? Why? It will only take seven days at the latest for the Navy and CP to be transferred here, and it won't take too long for the princesses of the member states to arrive. Half a month is really too long."

"Well... I'll let you know when the time comes. We have things to do, including things my husband asked us to deliver."

"A gift? Mr. Baiyu has friends here?"

"Of course! Do you think anyone would mess with their husband? He has a very good temper, he's super gentle and warm."

Kalifa said with a complicated expression, "You guys really dare to say things like that now..."

Gion took a sip of tea and said softly, "First of all, that's true. Secondly, even if we're in the Navy, we're still our husbands' fiancées, so naturally we should stand on the side of our families. Besides, our husbands didn't do anything wrong in that matter. Finally..."

"The CP0 outside that door is there to keep an eye on you, not on us. To say something that you would consider disrespectful, even if we killed a Celestial Dragon right now in front of the Five Elders, they wouldn't dare say anything."

Kalifa pursed her lips. Although these words had indeed startled her, after she came to her senses, it seemed to be true. Although she was a CP, she wasn't brainless. Did she not know whether what Bai Yu did was right or wrong?

To be honest, they all knew that many people in the Navy and the general public agreed with what Bai Yu said, either in their hearts or in secret. Therefore, many people regarded Bai Yu as a hero, especially when the Celestial Dragons publicly begged for mercy. Some people even almost worshipped Bai Yu and his family.

This is not an exaggeration at all; in fact, some people have already been recording it. So much has happened in this short year; they are witnessing history, witnessing a legend.

This naturally includes Kalifa, who has feelings for Bai Yu. He's handsome, strong, and did something that can be described as heroic. Now she knows all of this.

Therefore, she was not opposed to the marriage alliance, and even looked forward to it, but her feelings were somewhat complicated. Gion just glanced at Kalifa and said, "Alright, don't overthink it. If you think too much now, you'll only be unable to think straight later. Have some tea. We brought it from the shop, it smells very good."

"Thanks..."

"It's nothing. This tea isn't anything precious, and you're practically family, so there's no need to say thank you. Tina, send a message to your husband... never mind, don't send it to him, he's on a date with Beelzebub. Send it to Lucifer instead."

"it is good!"

Chapter 636 Princess Vivi's Departure, Reiju's Departure (Please Subscribe~)

While Kalifa and Gion were drinking tea and chatting, people on the lists in various locations were also receiving messages from headquarters and the Holy Land one after another.

Lieutenant General Doll, who was heading back by boat, said goodbye to Smoker and hurriedly boarded the boat with his sword, heading straight for headquarters. Alpha also put down his mission and rushed to headquarters. Peacock, looking puzzled, still took the boat back with Lark.

The military orders they received were to return, and they absolutely could not delay. There were urgent missions and special military orders, so they didn't dare to rest for a moment after receiving the orders and rushed back immediately.

However, besides them, there were a few special people. At this moment, a woman wearing a white hat and leaning on a parasol was silently looking at the sea. She had also received orders, and her orders were a little different from the others.

Meanwhile, in the other palace, Cobra said with a serious expression, "Vivi! Forget about that! Run! Get out of here immediately! The ship is ready for you! Get as far away as possible!"

"Father, I must go... If I don't go, not only will you be in danger, but the country that is recovering and just beginning to show signs of improvement may also face a sedition!"

"But...but! At this time, the Holy Land has directly ordered you to go to the Marine Headquarters in person to accept the mission. You are not a member of the Marines, nor do you have any special abilities. You...who knows what their purpose is in wanting you to go there!"

“Even if there is danger, I must go. I have not offended anyone, nor do I have any special power. They have no reason to kill me. Father... I must go... I have a feeling that this matter may be related to Lord Bai Yu.”

Cobra paused for a moment and said, "Mr. Bai Yu?!"

"Yes... The Celestial Dragons and the Navy are currently suppressing pirates frantically to prevent chaos. They have been silent for so long. The fact that the Celestial Dragons abandoned their dignity to beg for mercy shows that they are no match for the enemy and are seeking peace. All the Celestial Dragons are doing right now is to survive."

"I'm nothing special. Even if they kill me, they won't get Lord Baiyu's forgiveness. So, they definitely won't kill me. There's no need to capture me either. Why would they capture me if they want to destroy the country? So, I'm definitely not in danger..."

Cobra calmed down and said, "That's true, but... what you mean by 'because of Mr. Bai Yu'?"

"I don't know, maybe they want me to be their envoy? Maybe..."

Vivi pursed her lips and blushed. Just as Cobra was about to speak, Vivi said, "Alright, Father... don't say anymore. I know what I'm doing. And whether it's for the country or for you... I don't need to go. Bless me. Maybe I can meet Lord Baiyu."

Cobra clenched his fist, then finally sighed and said, "Go...be careful..."

"Yes, don't worry, Father... I'm leaving..."

Watching Vivi's departing figure, Kobra remained clenching his fist for a long time. He couldn't think of what Vivi had been thinking about; he was only worried about his daughter's safety.

Unlike the touching scene between father and daughter on one side, in another room, a beautiful woman with medium-length pink hair stood quietly, while a man with long blond hair wearing a metal helmet said in a deep voice, "Reiju! Head to Marine Headquarters immediately."

"Yes...but what do you need me to do after that? Eavesdrop on any information or...?"
