Nico Robin, Michita, Marianne, and the three girls were a little uneasy when facing Yamazaki, a man in black robes who was obviously a man, and worried that something bad would happen.
Yamazaki laughed, but did not show it. He still spoke to them through the translator in a cold and flat voice.
"I have three options here, but they all have a prerequisite."
"First, you can stay in the space city and be an ordinary person, and stay away from disputes."
"What's the premise?" Marianne couldn't help but ask. She was frightened to death by the Shura field that Shandai showed her. During her detention, she often thought that it would be nice if she could be an ordinary person.
Yamazaki said: "In order to prevent you from leaking the news, you need to take special drugs and accept my control for a maximum of 10 years."
"Leaking the news?" Nicole Robin realized a question, "You mean our boss? And 10 years means that you are going to replace him within 10 years, replacing Sand Crocodile, one of the seven warriors of the king.
Sir Crocodile?"
Yamazaki said: "More than that, in fact, we are planning to replace him in only one year."
"One year? How confident are you?" Nicole Robin and others did not know about the Battle of Slaphis.
"Fortunately, you will know the details." Yamazaki said.
Marianne nodded, "I choose the first one..."
Michita screamed: "Marian, if he fails, you will die too."
"I believe he is not a fool. If he is not sure, he will not challenge our boss." Marianne said solemnly, "I told you what I saw, the woman who defeated me, I think she can defeat the boss.
"
Michita screamed: "But he doesn't have enough warships. Don't think that the boss really only has our warships."
"Actually, I think my battleships are enough." Yamazaki said, "This is your second choice. Become an ally of our Star Thief Group. I can give each of you 1,000 battleships of various types. After this incident, those related
Except for those who hold grudges, the rest of the crew will pay you back."
"1,000 warships of various kinds each?" The three women were startled, and they could see the shock in each other's eyes when they looked at each other.
Including himself, this Star Thieves group has at least 4,000 warships.
"How is it possible? You can't have so many battleships. If you have so many battleships, I should have heard of it," Nicole Robin questioned, "Just like the Klick Star Pirates, Klick's strength is not strong, but
There are many battleships."
"Our Bat Star Bandits have just emerged and currently have 13,000 battleships."
"ah?"
Regarding Yamazaki's words, the three girls felt a little dizzy.
Although I really want to say that the other party is arrogant and lies without drafting, the other party's tone is really not a joke.
However, 13,000 warships as soon as they emerged are too impressive, right?
"Everything I say is true, you will know if you just ask around." Yamazaki said.
"Okay, I believe you, I choose this." Nicole Robin said seriously, "I also need to be controlled by you, right? As long as you fulfill your promise, you can control me for as long as you want."
"It seems that you are a person with a story and need strength." Yamazaki nodded, and he could hear the anger.
Nicole Robin took a deep breath to control her emotions, "Yes, you have to know that I can tell you after I confirm your strength."
Yamazaki shook his head, "You don't have to tell me. Of course, if you want to say it, I'm willing to listen."
Michita asked, "So, what's the third option?"
"Stay in my fleet and serve me," Yamazaki added, "It's not that kind of thing, don't think about it, I mean the crew."
Michita nodded, "Then I choose the third one. I don't think I have the ability to lead the fleet independently."
Yamazaki said: "Please think clearly."
"No need, I've thought about it clearly." Marianne said.
Nicole Robin said: "I have a condition, that is, we cannot be enemies with our boss."
Yamazaki said: "I didn't originally intend for you to confront him head-on, but Michita, if you become my subordinate, you may be allowed to go out as a crew member, but you only need to stay on the flagship."
Michita understood, "You want to use my ability to reduce the weight of the ship's hull and make the ship faster?"
Yamazaki nodded, "Yes."
Michita shook her head, "I advise you to give up. I'm sorry to say it, but I'm not strong enough."
"Don't worry, we will train you." Yamazaki said, "I forgot to mention, if you can't become stronger, I will let you stay in the space city until the matter is over."
Nico Robin said with some anticipation: "Train me too, I want to become stronger."
"Okay." Yamazaki agreed, since it wasn't him doing it anyway.
…
The space city is also about 10 kilometers in diameter, parked 1 light second near the Stargate of Slaphis, and serves as the base camp of the Bat Star Thieves Alliance.
Inside the space city, how should I put it, the mountains, rivers and lakes are so lush and green that if you really immerse yourself in it, you won’t feel like you are in space at all.
Of course, this was deliberately chosen as a city for leisure, not a military camp for rest.
…
The space city is managed by the clone of Miss Joan of Arc. In theory, no information can be transmitted out. To be on the safe side, surveillance cameras were installed on the three prisoners.
Nicole Robin and Michita's training is diving, using water pressure to hone their skills.
Marianne did not participate in the training. She had already let go, drawing with a drawing board, and lived a leisurely and contented life.
It doesn’t matter how high Nico Robin can improve, but Mikita must be able to return the weight of the 5-kilometer-long Expedition Star to zero.
In fact, Arrita has been forced to practice, using her thoughts to play games, and how many points she must get every day, supervised by Miss Joan of Arc.
Yamazaki, Shandai, and Kate all had an idea. Michita would reset the weight of the battleship to zero, and Arrita would reset the friction of the battleship to zero.
In this way, the speed of the battleship can quickly reach the speed of light, and it can instantly span a light second on the battlefield. Whether it is attacking or retreating, it is wonderful.
You know, the attack distance of a battleship is usually 10,000 kilometers, and the battlefield is usually within 1 light second.
…
After arranging the prisoners, Yamazaki and Shandai accompanied Kate to learn about the stargate they controlled.
With the help of the holographic image of Miss Joan of Arc, Kate spent a few days analyzing the entire Stargate and slowly copied a Stargate.
I don't know if it can be used, of course, I need another one.
In order to understand the situation, the three of them randomly made up a name - the Tripod Star Thief Group. They took a shuttle-type mothership and went to the Rogge Star through the Stargate, which is about 20 million light years away from the Slapheus Star.
