Lin Mo and Lei Li were not surprised by Qing Zhi's sudden arrival.
On the other hand, the tavern owner's face had turned extremely pale, especially when he heard that Qing Zhi was a navy man.
Even when Qing Zhi asked him for Sherry wine, he did not react in time.
He was still thinking about what to do. He did not want Riley to be taken away.
Seeing that the tavern owner did not move, Qing Zhi repeated,"Boss, can you hear me? I'll have a glass of Sherry, thank you."
"Ah!" The tavern owner suddenly snapped out of his daze. His expression immediately darkened as he said unhappily," I don't have any Sherry for you to drink. If you want to drink, go to another tavern in town!"”
"Oh, so there isn't." Qing Zhi scratched his head and looked at the rum that Lin Mo was drinking. He continued," Then give me a bottle of this brat's wine.”
The tavern owner clenched his fists and said angrily,"I already said no! You can't drink anything! This tavern has been booked by Mr. Riley and Lin Mo since noon. All the wine here belongs to them. I won't sell a drop to you. If you understand, get out immediately!”
"Why are you angry?" Qing Zhi said helplessly," I just want to drink. Since this place has been booked, there's nothing I can do.”
"Boss, get him a bottle." said Raley carelessly.
" Mr. Riley," the tavern owner said in disbelief," he's the navy who wants to capture you. Why would he treat the navy to a drink?"”
" It's fine," Riley waved his hand." Even if he really wants to capture me, it depends on whether he has the ability to do so. Hahaha."”
"This…" The tavern owner was in a dilemma.
"Don't worry, I'm not here to catch Riley, although I'm surprised to see him here.”
Actually, he was even more surprised that Lin Mo was with Riley.
The tavern owner shook his head helplessly. Then, he took a bottle of wine from the wine cabinet and placed it in front of Qing Zhi.
Qing Zhi uncorked the bottle and took a sip.
He turned to Lin Mo and said," I didn't expect you to know Nether King Riley. Maybe Smogue's worries will come true."”
Smogg was worried that Lin Mo would refuse to join the navy and join the pirates.
" Don't worry," Lin Mo said speechlessly." It won't come true."”
"Humans are the most fickle species." Qing Zhi took another sip of wine and continued," Even you can't make a choice for yourself in the future now. After all, no one can guarantee what will happen in the future.”
Lin Mo understood the logic.
So what?
Not to mention that the system he was bound to was the Traveler System, which had limited his choices.
Even without the system, with his personality, he would not join any party.
Some things would never change.
Lin Mo chuckled and replied," I know what I'm doing. Be it the navy or pirates, I'm not interested. Not now, not in the future. Believe it or not, that's your business. I don't have to explain so much to you.”
"Haha." Qing Zhi smiled and asked," Are you really not willing to consider joining the navy?”
"I won't consider it."
As soon as Lin Mo finished speaking, the system notification sounded in his mind.
Beep! Rejected the invitation of Navy General Qing Zhi. Sign in progress 10%. Current progress is 60%. Reward: Armed color domineering level 1. Current Armed color level is LV5.'
In an instant, Lin Mo felt that the power in his body had increased by quite a bit.
The increase in the level of the armed color would not be noticed by the people around him, so Qing Zhi and Lei Li did not know that he had become stronger again.
How interesting.
Lin Mo couldn't help but chuckle.
Previously, when he was in contact with Red Hair and Karp, the other party had invited him a few times before triggering the completion of the progress mission. This Qing Zhi, on the other hand, seemed to have casually asked a question and actually triggered the completion of the check-in progress.
Indeed, seeing was not necessarily believing.
"Oh, then forget it." Qing Zhi wasn't like Karp, who would pester or even act shamelessly. Since the other party wasn't willing, then forget it.
Silently drinking another mouthful of wine, Qing Zhi continued,""Just because I won't arrest you now doesn't mean that I won't in the future. I promised Smogg that I would help Roger on his death anniversary. If you do anything unusual, I won't hesitate to arrest you.”
" Haha, I'm just here to pay my respects to Roger," Riley laughed." I'll leave after the ceremony. Don't worry. As long as it's not something that I have to do, I won't make any noise. Hahaha."”
"It's best if that's the case." Qing Zhi finished the last mouthful of wine and prepared to leave.
"Aren't you going to drink a few more bottles before leaving?" Riley asked with a smile.
"No need. I still have to call Karp back." Qing Zhi waved his hand.”
Lin Mo was speechless.
Lin Mo finally understood why Qing Zhi had specially come to this tavern.
It seemed like Karp was behind this…
That old fox, even if he wasn't here, he still wanted to cause trouble for him…
After Qing Zhi left the tavern, he called Karp back.
On the other end of the phone.
"How is it?" Karp asked anxiously. Did Lin Mo agree?"
Qing Zhi scratched the back of his head and laughed.”
Karp was speechless.
Karp said helplessly," Really, it's still like this. Forget it, forget it. Let him be."”
"By the way, I saw Riley when I went to the tavern to look for Lin Mo," Qing Zhi continued.”
“欸?Who are you talking about?"
" Nether King Raley."
"Why is that guy in Roguetown?”After a pause, Karp continued," Wait, why is that guy with Lin Mo?”
"I don't know. They seem to be drinking buddies.”Qing Zhi scratched his head and continued," Riley said that he's retired from being a pirate, and Lin Mo has also made it clear that he won't join the navy or the pirates. In that case, it's not impossible for the two of them to become drinking buddies.”
Karp was speechless.
Karp: " Ahahaha, that seems to be the case. Hahaha, then it's fine. As long as that kid Lin Mo doesn't become a pirate…" Hey! Luffy, stop right there. What? You want to be a pirate? Bastard, you and Ace can only be in the navy. There's no second choice!”
After Qing Zhi heard the last sound of Luffy being punched by Karp, the call was hung up.
Putting the phone bug back into his pocket, Qing Zhi yawned and lazily walked towards the Roguetown naval base.
In the tavern.
After Qing Zhi left.
The tavern owner heaved a sigh of relief." It seems that this navy man named Aokiji is a good person to talk to. He looks much better than Smoggy. He actually knows Mr. Riley. He should be at least a lieutenant general, right?"”
Riley said casually as he drank,"No, he's a general of the navy.”
The tavern owner was stunned for a moment before exclaiming,“欸?The general of the navy? Him?"
" That's right," Riley smiled." However, you shouldn't be surprised that Qing Zhi is a general."”
"Is there anything more shocking than the arrival of a admiral in Roguetown?" the tavern owner asked in confusion.”
Looking at Lin Mo, who was still drinking quietly, Riley smiled and said,""Isn't it even more surprising that Lin Mo, the laziest general in the navy, personally invited him to join the navy?”
