As expected, the red dog came knocking.
He even personally came to Lei Jie's office.
Lei Jie smiled meaningfully as he looked at the red dog.
Seeing Lei Jie's smiling face, the red dog's eyes flashed.
To be honest, the current him no longer dared to underestimate this eight-year-old child in front of him.
It was not only because of his terrifying combat strength, but also because of Lei Jie's intelligence.
At the beginning, Red Hound was just like the others, thinking that Lei Jie was just a more mature eight-year-old child.
However, after listening to Tina's report, he suddenly realized that this wasn't the performance of an eight-year-old child.
Looking at Lei Jie's performance in the entire Battle of Reckoning, he felt like a young man who had revealed his abilities.
Therefore, Chi Quan was now seriously suspecting that Lei Jie's true age was not eight years old.
It was possible that the Immemorial Thunder Dragon's fruit had frozen his appearance as a child, or it was the fruit's ability that had made him younger.
All in all, the Red Hound would no longer treat Lei Jie like an eight-year-old child.
If Lei Jie had the mindset of a young man, coupled with his terrifying strength, the Red Hound would not dare to be careless.
If they were not careful, they might cause this young general to develop a rebellious mentality. If that happened, although their gains from the battle of settling accounts were great, they would definitely lose more than they gained.
"Uncle Red Hound, why are you looking for me?？”
Lei Jie raised his eyebrows and asked.
In fact, Lei Jie was very clear about his over-maturity.
If it was before, he would still put on a disguise. However, ever since his strength had increased, Lei Jie could not be bothered to put on a disguise.
After all, with his strength, he could completely withstand the danger of exposing his mature thoughts.
Since that was the case, he would naturally do whatever was comfortable.
When the red dog heard this, its gaze immediately landed on Lei Jie's left wrist.
There, a bracelet made of pure gold was casually worn.
As the saying goes, wealth should not be revealed. Lei Jie's actions were clearly revealing his wealth. However, considering his strength, there was no problem with doing so.
Considering his mature thinking, perhaps he did it on purpose.
"Lei Jie, I heard that you obtained pure gold.”
"Yeah, is it nice?" Lei Jie waved his hand.”
" What?" The red hound sweated and hesitated." I don't know if you understand the function of pure gold. This is a magical substance that can greatly extend a person's lifespan."”
Lei Jie laughed when he heard this.
"What? This is my spoils of war. You want me to hand it over?”
Lei Jie narrowed his eyes as he spoke, and his expression instantly became dangerous.
The red hound's heart trembled, but it soon smiled bitterly.
When the news reached the Five Old Stars, those old fellows really intended to make Lei Jie hand it over.
Of course, they said that they would give a large amount of compensation, but what kind of compensation could compare to this material that could grant one eternal life?？
However, as the admiral of the navy, the red dog could not agree with the decision of the Five Old Stars.
Because that would be too unreasonable.
After all, Lei Jie had killed Blackbeard and Redfield. Both of them were great pirates. Lei Jie's contribution was self-evident.
Not only did he not reward him, but he also wanted to snatch the priceless gold from him!？
Of course, the most important thing was that the red dog was wary of Lei Jie's strength.
Suppressing Teng Hu and Green Cow, killing Blackbeard and Redfield, if he was not careful, he might end up going against the Navy, the World Government, and the World Government. That would be troublesome.
Wasn't this what he and Zhan Guo were most worried about?
Therefore, facing the Five Old Stars 'request, the Red Hound expressed its opposition.
However, he still had to give face to the Five Old Stars, so the red dog thought of a compromise.
"It's like this. I don't know if you've heard of Bergerampunk."”
"Begapunk?"
"Yes, he is the top scientist of the world government. He has a technological power that surpasses the world by 500 years. And the pure gold that you obtained was also said to have been researched by a scientist.”
"So what I mean is, can you lend pure gold to the government for a period of time so that Bergerpuke can study it? If we can replicate pure gold, it will definitely be of unlimited benefit to our naval government.”
At this point, even the red dog's eyes could not help but flash with hope.
Although the effect of pure gold was not to make people immortal, its effect of greatly delaying aging was already very powerful.
If they had a large amount of pure gold, their naval government would definitely benefit greatly!
Not to mention others, just these generals and marshals were not young.
In another ten years, he might still have some combat strength…
But twenty years? Thirty years?
Not everyone was as abnormal as Karp, who could ignore aging.
Even the world's strongest, White Beard, was defeated by aging.
However, if he had pure gold, he, Huang Yuan, Teng Hu, and the others would be able to greatly slow down their aging. As long as they did not get injured or die in the future, they would be able to continue working for the naval government.
Such benefits were almost impossible to estimate!
And this…
Putting everything else aside, this was also the reason why the Red Hound had come up with a compromise despite opposing the Five Old Stars 'suggestion.
He also had a desire for pure gold!
Upon hearing this, Lei Jie began to ponder.
In fact, he had already guessed that the Five Old Stars might ask for pure gold.
After all, the Five Old Stars were all old. Although pure gold could not restore their youth, it was of great use to them.
Of course, Lei Jie's things weren't that easy to take.
He had just made such a great contribution, and now he was robbed. If he went crazy, he might kill a few Heavenly Dragon people to calm down.
However, what the red hound said made Lei Jie's heart skip a beat.
If he wanted to borrow it for research, it didn't seem impossible, especially since the person in charge of the research was the mysterious scientist, Bergerpunk...
Lei Jie nodded.
"I can lend it to you for research, but I have a condition.”
"What condition?"”
Lei Jie grinned.
