This sentence pierced Baki's heart.
Then, before he could say anything, he heard the sound of another attack.
"But you really don't have to say that. He does clean quite well. He has such craftsmanship."
"Mr. Riley cleaned the warship for you? Stop joking, this is impossible!"
Baki immediately jumped up, and there was still half a sentence that he did not say in his heart. Mr. Riley, he, he was the vice-captain of the Roger Pirates! He was a person whom he had admired and yearned for when he was an intern in the Pirates…It was absolutely impossible, absolutely impossible for him to clean a warship for the navy!
At this moment, Liu Xing hooked his finger.
His slender and perfect fingers seemed to have some kind of magic…
With just a gentle pull in the void, it was as if a thread that represented life had been pulled!
Baki was shocked.
His eyes were filled with horror because he suddenly had an extremely clear feeling that his life was in the hands of the other party.
Then, he heard a lazy voice.
"Seeing that you voluntarily sent food over, I wasted some energy to prove it. Do you believe me now?”
"No…I still don't believe that Mr. Riley would never bow down to the navy!”
Baki's heart trembled in fear, but he still refused to believe it on the surface.
Faith collapsed!
He couldn't accept the scene of that powerful and perfect man bowing to the navy.
This made Liu Xing look at him with a higher gaze.
Unexpectedly, this guy still had some backbone…
Thus, he said.
"It's not a big deal to lower your head at a critical moment. A real man knows how to advance and retreat.”
"Besides…I didn't humiliate his dignity that much, did I? It wasn't like they were forcing him to lower his head with force. It was normal and fair for both parties to work in exchange for food.”
"Hmph, the Mr. Riley you speak of should thank me for giving him a mouthful of food at the critical moment.”
After he finished speaking, Liu Xing casually waved his hand.
"Alright, alright. You should be satisfied with just two questions. Don't disturb my meal. Get out."
It was just that Baki was more self-conscious, and the food and drinks he sent were more to his liking.
Otherwise…
Whether he believed it or not, what did it have to do with him?
He couldn't be bothered to waste his energy explaining so much!
…………
Baki walked out in a daze.
He had achieved his goal when he entered, and he finally had some understanding of the navy's strength.
However, the more he understood, the more he collapsed.
Especially when he found out that Mr. Riley was willing to clean the warship for him for food, that feeling…It was as if the sky had fallen down. No matter what he said, he could not change his mood. He did not even respond to the calls of his trusted subordinates!
After finally recovering a little.
Baki gave the order to forbid his subordinates from approaching or touching the room and the people inside.
At first, everyone was a little curious. When they passed by, they would occasionally glance at the closed door.
Gradually, they realized.
This vice-admiral was completely different from their impression of him. He especially liked to coop himself up in his room, occasionally taking out a chair and lying on the deck to bask in the sun. The pace of life was like a vacation! The atmosphere in the pirate group was a little off…
That's true. Looking at him lying down and basking in the sun leisurely with wine beside him, his leisurely enjoyment was too contagious!
Therefore, a few of Baki's trusted pirates found him.
They were all full of complaints.
"Captain Baki, what about the navy? She couldn't possibly let him stay on her ship forever, right?”
"Recently, the atmosphere in the pirate group has been very bad. I've already caught many people who are lazy and absent-minded. You don't listen to management anymore!" One of them complained in a low voice. To be honest, he was also a little jealous.
" And there's also Captain Baki…"
The last person said with a sad face,"According to you, our recent attacks were all about robbing other pirate groups. If this continues, I feel like we'll have to specialize in maintaining order at sea and become a small team of the East Ocean Navy.”
* Cough cough *
Baki closed his eyes and coughed twice.
He said in a tone that said," Everything is under control.""Alright, I know. You guys can leave. I'll discuss it with him.”
The three people in front of him were in awe, completely intimidated by his pretentious performance.
They kept saying," Captain Baki is mighty " and " With the captain here, what are we worried about?" Then, they pushed open the door and left the captain's cabin one by one.
Little did he know.
The next second after they left.
Baki instantly switched to a distressed expression.
During this period, although he was still troubled by the fact that Mr. Riley had bowed to the navy, he also understood one thing-although the strength of the navy was vague, it was at least above Mr. Riley!
What could he do against such an enemy?
However, the pressure from the feedback from his subordinates still made him pick a time to bring good wine and food to Liu Xing's room.
Bang bang bang ~~
He gently knocked on the door three times.
"Come in."
Thus, Baki walked in eagerly.
Coupled with that eye-catching red nose, it looked quite comical.
The three pirates who had found Baki previously probably never expected that the captain who had been quite arrogant in front of them would actually go to Liu Xing to "discuss" with him in such a manner. It would definitely make the three of them dumbfounded!
Good wine and dishes were served.
He dawdled for a while.
When he felt that Liu Xing was about to chase him away, Baki finally asked,""Um…how long do you plan to stay on my ship? No, no, no, I definitely didn't mean to chase him away. I just felt that with such a key official position, you must have a lot of things to deal with, right?”
Baki comforted himself as he spoke.
Since Mr. Riley had lowered his head, his current performance was nothing, right?
" I won't be staying for long. Old Dog Karp will pick me up in two days…"
