One Piece, I will gather the faith

"Priest, there is a phone call, wanting to negotiate."

The communication personnel on the ship hurried over.

"Oh, did they say who it was?" Lake became interested.

"No, they just said it was a serious matter."

"Well, where is the Den Den Mushi?" Lake nodded, showing his understanding.

Then, the communication personnel tactfully put the Den Den Mushi on the table next to him, consciously closed the door of the room, and left quickly.

Lake glanced at the Den Den Mushi, then closed his eyes and rested, without speaking.

After all, it was someone else who wanted to negotiate with him. Whoever spoke first would be the one who couldn't keep his cool and exposed his confidence first, right?

"Winks Lake, what a great young man," a deep sigh came from the other end of the Den Den Mushi.

"Oh, I don't know which honorable person it is."

Since he came to negotiate, he obviously had to be treated well. If he wasn't an honorable guest, what else could he be?

"Silvaz Rayleigh, an ordinary old man."

"Pluto Rayleigh, you are a great man, what can I do for you?" Lake was also a little surprised. He didn't expect it to be this person.

He thought it was from the navy or the fishman. Then, he seemed to remember that Rayleigh seemed to have a lot to do with the octopus man Xiaoba.

So, a plan came to mind.

After all, he had never systematically learned the military power of this world, and he had explored everything by himself. He had no idea about the fascinating domineering color and observation color.

And Rayleigh, the character who guided Luffy to the three-color domineering in the original book, can obviously also popularize it for him.

Since it is a negotiation, it must be planned well.

"The octopus man Xiaoba who was captured by you is my friend. I hope you can give me some face and let him go." Rayleigh didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point. It seemed that he also liked such straightforwardness.

"Hmm? Release the extremely evil fishman? Do you know what kind of crime they committed?" Lake's mouth corners slightly raised, but he still pretended to be very angry, as if it was really a fair trial.

Obviously, Rayleigh didn't know how to respond this time. After all, Lake was a great swordsman who was not inferior to Garp in sparring. He was not a small character, and the coercion and inducement would definitely not work.

Besides, he was not confident now. He himself was not an unforgivable person. The Roger Pirates were also an adventure group pursuing adventure and One Piece.

This can also be seen from the fact that he has been living in seclusion in the Sabaody Archipelago as a coating worker, although he would sell himself from time to time and then run away with the money, which was a bit of a bad taste.

In fact, it is also a small lesson for those rich people who like to keep slaves. After all, this is also a high-level martial arts world, and there is nothing wrong with robbing the rich to help the poor, although it is himself who is being helped.

"Do you know that this group of fish-man pirates occupied the local area for eight years, destroyed several villages, and killed countless humans. How many eight years does a person have in his life?"

Lake looked indignant, and those who didn't know him thought he was a victim. At this time, his expression seemed to be close to those who had experienced this, and he was just crying. His expression was well managed.

"Well, sorry," Rayleigh seemed to feel that his request was a bit untenable, "but I still hope to spare Xiao Ba's life."

It seems that this Xiao Ba is very important, maybe there is a chance, thinking so in his heart, Lake's mouth corners raised.

"Why?" Lake pretended to be righteous, "Shouldn't you pay for the mistakes you made yourself? Or do you plan to share it for him, pay it for him, and atone for him?"

"Oh, it seems that your justice is not so reliable."

A teasing female voice came from the Den Den Mushi. Lake knew that this was Xia Qi, and he couldn't help but frowned slightly.

He regretted it at this time, knowing that he was a little anxious and purposeful, and his flaws were discovered.

"I don't understand what you mean."

But it is obvious that the initiative is in his hands at this time, and he must not follow the other party's rhythm and play dumb.

After all, this is a negotiation skill. When facing unfavorable narration, directly saying that you don't understand can not only maintain the initiative, but also put the other party in a state of explanation and defense.

How could Lake, who came from the era of Internet information explosion, not understand?

"Haha, brother, it's really interesting, but what do you need, just say it directly." Xia Qi also knew that she was the weaker party at this time, and she was still thinking about winning, so she must make concessions.

Otherwise, if they were tough and Lake quit, it would be counterproductive.?

"Well, in that case, I won't beat around the bush. In order to protect more people, to let the light of God spread to a wider world, and to let the civilians have something to rely on..."

"Haha, interesting, brother Lake, just say it directly."

Just when Lake was about to lay the groundwork, Xia Qi didn't buy it and interrupted Lake's lyricism directly, preparing for a negotiation without swords and spears, with a pure purpose.

"Well, I want Mr. Rayleigh to come to the East China Sea and be an instructor of the Guardian Knights of the Creation God for a year. Food and drink will be provided, and the salary is 100 million Baileys. The premise is that you must teach with all your heart without reservation."

It has come to this point, and Lake is not going to beat around the bush. Besides, the conditions he gave are already very good, and he has given face. If you don't agree, then he will show his own toughness.

"Hahaha, brother, you have a good idea. Okay, I promise you just for your face."

Rayleigh obviously didn't expect things to go so smoothly. Besides, he was just a chief instructor, not Lake's thug. It was only one year, and there was a reward of 100 million Baileys. Where can you find such a good thing?

Besides, even the Pirate King has to consider survival and food, right?

"Okay, you are worthy of being Pluto Rayleigh. Then that Xiao Ba will escape unexpectedly tonight."

"Okay, hahaha, see you in the East China Sea."

"Okay!"

Then, both parties hung up the phone at the same time.

"Xia Qi, why do I feel like I've been tricked."

"Hehe, isn't this good? 100 million Baileys, food and accommodation, I heard that the famous Balabala BBQ Bar is the industry of the Creation God Church."

Xia Qi didn't say much. After all, everyone is happy now, right?

Lake in the East China Sea also felt a little unreal at this time. He didn't expect to have such a harvest this time.

Although he was very satisfied with the result, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy at this time. He couldn't help but worry whether he had the domineering color.
