Chapter 28 Father Discusses
Chapter 28 Father Discusses
After Aini finished dealing with everything, he sat in the office of a major at the 153rd Marine Division, no... the East Blue Inspectorate.
I couldn't help but stretch.
Sometimes, trivial matters are far more tiring than fighting a battle.
At this moment, Lina was standing behind Aini, massaging Aini's shoulders with her hands and pushing Aini's back with her N.
It has to be said that having a beautiful woman who unconditionally and willingly serves you is truly one of life's greatest pleasures.
Sure enough, as Lina massaged him, Aini couldn't help but get excited.
He simply reached back and hugged her, then gently began to knead her.
Lina trembled, her face flushing slightly. Instead of resisting, she cooperated fully, spreading her legs slightly.
“Brubru….”
Just as the two were getting into the swing of things, the Den Den Mushi on Ani rang.
Aini was slightly taken aback, then her lips twitched a few times.
The Den Den Mushi he carries can only call two people: Smoker and his adoptive father.
These two people usually come to Tongzhou because they have something important to discuss, something that can't be delayed.
"You've come at the worst possible time." And he happily withdrew his hand.
"Pfft..."
Lina felt a moment of emptiness, but immediately chuckled and said, "Master, you can have me anytime you want, but we can't let this interfere with our business."
Upon hearing this, Aini couldn't help but chuckle softly, "That's true..."
"Snapped..."
However, I took another picture as a reward.
This elicited a soft snort from Lina.
He immediately answered the Den Den Mushi, and his adoptive father Burns' voice came through the other end.
"You're really making a big fuss!"
His voice carried a mixture of excitement and helplessness.
Upon hearing this, Aini raised an eyebrow slightly: "Did something happen to Dad?"
"The inspectors from the East China Sea have jointly filed a complaint against you with the Holy Land! For this, I have agreed that the East China Sea must pay three billion Berries every year!"
Aini was stunned: "How much?"
Burns: "Three billion!"
Aini sighed and rubbed his forehead: "Dad, isn't your mouth a little too wide open?"
Burns: "The people behind the other inspectors have reported it to the Celestial Dragons. Of course, I also have Celestial Dragons behind me. Considering the Berries I pay him every year and the profits you're about to receive, I mediated between them. In the end, as long as the East Blue pays one billion Berries every year, this matter will be over."
Upon hearing this, Aini asked in surprise, "Then how did it become three billion?"
Burns: "Because I voluntarily added another 1.5 billion, in exchange for your complete control over the entire East China Sea Inspectorate. In other words, you can kill those inspectors in the East China Sea whenever you want, without having to hold back anymore... Hahaha!"
Burns burst into laughter at the end.
The laughter lasted for a long time before stopping, tinged with a hint of smugness: "Let those guys cause me trouble, I'll cut off their supply lines from the ground, they've suffered a huge loss now!"
Enni understood who Burns was referring to—the other Celestial Dragons' subordinates.
Just like Burns.
However, Enni frowned. Anyone who could survive under the Celestial Dragons was definitely not someone to be trifled with.
Indeed, Burns played a brilliant move by undermining the enemy's strength.
But...they're not going to swallow this loss silently. They'll definitely try to trip us up...
So I tentatively asked, "Is there anything you haven't said yet?"
"Ok?"
Burns' smug expression froze, then his face hardened: "But all of this is conditional on this: today's copy also has to be submitted. That's what those guys suggested to the Celestial Dragons!"
By the end, Burns was gritting his teeth.
It has to be said that when he undermined others, others retaliated in kind.
Finally, he sighed, "I first got you a White Tiger Fruit. Later, to support you in building your power in the East Blue, I spent a fortune getting you a Zoan-type and a Paramecia-type. Although they're both unknown... it's all the wealth I've accumulated over the decades."
So, it seems we'll have to rely on you for those three billion Berries. Are you confident?
Towards the end, he seemed a little unsure of himself.
If you say that by the second year, he had already integrated the entire East China Sea Inspectorate, held real power, and truly become the second most powerful person in East China Sea... earning 3 billion wouldn't be difficult.
But this year, there are less than two months left before the payment is due.
Where are we going to get 3 billion?
At this moment, Aini's furrowed brows relaxed, revealing a hint of surprise: "You've already got two Devil Fruits so quickly?"
A slight smile involuntarily appeared on his lips; this was good news.
The animals can be assigned to Ajin, which will greatly enhance Ajin's strength in a short period of time.
Not bad.
As for the Paranormal series, we could consider keeping Daniel.
Because Daniel is the person Aini intends to succeed him as the Chief Inspector of the East China Sea. He needs to have at least two or three thousand strength to intimidate others.
And he couldn't stay in the East China Sea forever.
However, even if he leaves the East Sea, he will still control it... as it is a continuous source of wealth.
Keeping Akin and Lina would be a waste of their talents. After all, the East Blue doesn't have many decent strong individuals.
On the contrary, this 3 billion... is nothing to Aini.
"Don't worry, Dad, I have a way to get those three billion. You don't need to worry... But you still have to do me a favor."
Burns: "Tell me, if Dad can handle it for you, he will."
Aini: "I want Akin to take the position of Deputy Chief Inspector. When I'm not around, he will be in full charge of all matters in the East China Sea."
"When you were there? You were in full charge of all matters in the East China Sea?" Burns immediately grasped the key point.
Eni: "Thirty billion, such a large sum of money, I have to deliver it personally! Especially this first one, there absolutely cannot be any mistakes. And since I'm delivering it to Bailey, someone from the East Blue naturally needs to handle everything for me, otherwise things could easily go wrong."
Burns: "Okay, Dad will handle this... But how are you going to manage the three billion?"
Enni laughed upon hearing this: "As long as Dad spreads the word, just say that my ship has 3 billion. But don't get involved with the Celestial Dragons, just mention the 3 billion."
Burns could have made a name for himself working alongside the Celestial Dragons, so how could he be stupid?
He immediately understood Aini's intentions, his eyes narrowed, and his expression became extremely serious: "Are you trying to lure a large number of pirates to rob us?"
"Pirates, to me, are walking Berries. Not only do they all have a lot of Berries and treasure, but they also have extremely high bounties."
Three billion?
Is it difficult?
Burns frowned, a look of worry flashing across his face. He knew all too well that three billion was an enormous temptation for most pirates.
It was even foreseeable that they would actually do that.
What kind of situation will Aini face?
