The Black Duke of Pirates

Your loyalty...

Hearing this, Rounqin was taken aback, and just wanted to answer, but he subconsciously stopped the words in his throat.

Can you guarantee absolute loyalty to your family in the future?

If these words were placed in the past, he would not have any hesitation, even now, he should not have any hesitation, but he still subconsciously stopped.

Roentgen is an extremely intelligent person, he will not know how strong a crisis of trust will be caused by Reinhardt at this moment of hesitation.

He wanted to tell Reinhardt personally that there would be no problem with his loyalty, as it was in the past and it will be in the future. But he couldn't deceive the man in front of him who had always regarded him as his own brother since childhood, and he was even more reluctant to respond to this question directly.

"Brother, you..."

Roentgen could hear a tone of doubt about himself from Reinhardt's mouth, which he had never had before.

"Unexpectedly, just such a simple question made you hesitate for so long." Reinhardt walked to the position opposite Roentgen and did it. Then he glanced at his face and said softly, " What are you hesitating? Roentgen..."

"I also didn't expect my eldest brother to ask such a sentence." Roentgen looked directly at Reinhardt's gaze, without retreating or flustering, the clear pupils showed a sense of calmness.

"Neither did I expect that my eldest brother would doubt me." Roentgen spoke sharply and turned his army back.

At this time, the scene began to stagnate, and the two sides went from the joyful recollection of the scene into a tense atmosphere of tension.

Reinhardt's gaze narrowed, and at the same time his expression became cold. He stared at Roentgen closely, and reprimanded slightly, "Pay attention to your position!"

Roentgen was startled suddenly, his eyes moved subconsciously, but there was a hesitation in his heart.

This is the first time Reinhardt has spoken to himself in a harsh reprimand in so many years, and for the first time in his life.

"Big brother." Roentgen was a little embarrassed, but he still mustered up the courage to meet Reinhardt's gaze, and continued: "Trust is mutual. In my undercover navy for eight years, every day. I spent it in tension, for fear of being discovered by the navy. If I am unhappy, why bother to hold on for eight years?"

"For eight years, I have counted the days. Especially in the past year, the navy's internal cruel censorship, I don’t know how many innocent navies have died because of this. Many times my spirit is about to collapse. It’s not that I kept my position in mind and betrayed a long time ago, so why wait until your eldest brother questioned it yourself?"

For a long time, Reinhardt has trusted him, but Roentgen’s many weird performances and soft decisions show that Roentgen has shaken deep in his heart, and this kind of vacillation will only worsen if he is not warned. Intense, even one day...

The end result of letting go is self-evident.

But if it is forced, the result will not be too good.

Reinhardt's eyes were still cold, and he said with a tone that could not be rejected: "Don't forget, this is your own choice."

"I once told you that this is a long, cruel and painful process."

"Haha... it's my own choice." Roentgen laughed in a low voice, and he suddenly felt that Reinhardt's personality had changed a lot, and his tone of voice and cold and merciless gaze made him extremely strange.

He didn't understand what caused Reinhardt's present temperament. Was it the result of growing power and ambition, or after becoming the king of Qiwuhai?

Or maybe... Reinhardt himself is such a cruel and ruthless person.

"But do I have a choice?"

Roentgen's expression suddenly became agitated, "From the time I started discussing this matter, I had no choice."

It is true, but as Roentgen said, although Reinhardt respected his personal wishes at the time, it was all up to him to go or not, but from the situation at that time and from Roentgen’s character, this would not be the first. Two choices of choice.

"So you regret it now?" Reinhardt spoke after a while of silence.

Roentgen stood up and looked at Reinhardt with a very strange look: "I don't regret it, and I won't give up halfway. As long as you and I are still alive, my position and identity will not change."

"In this case, I withdrew the sentence just now because I was careless."

After listening to Roentgen's words, Reinhardt stood up at the same time, and then returned to his familiar smile. Even so, he knew very well in his heart that he would never trust Roentgen again.

For Reinhardt, once a family member has this kind of dissatisfaction, then he will never show mercy. This is different from Chitila's situation at the beginning, which did not belong to the family from beginning to end, and Roentgen Not only is the core member of the family, he has always treated Roentgen as a relative.

However, this matter is not without room for relaxation, maybe Roentgen is really just an emotional vent.

With this fluke mentality, Reinhardt continued to look at Roentgen and said, "Will you blame my original decision?"

"No, my eldest brother and I have always stood together, always in the same position. I just vented helplessly." Roentgen shook his head and saw Reinhardt's tone ease, and he also returned to a smile.

As for Reinhardt’s suspiciousness ~www.readwn.com~ Roentgen doesn’t want to go into it anymore. Perhaps in the long years, everyone’s temperament will change more or less, not to mention Reinhardt over the years. Change, hasn't he changed in the past eight years?

It's just that he knew in his heart that after this unpleasant conversation, the relationship between the two might never return to the past.

"My words are too serious." Reinha nodded, "I know your pressure in the navy, and I can understand some changes in mood."

"Brother, I will not forget my true position." Roentgen said.

"Let's not talk about this." Reinhardt nodded with a smile, and then asked: "You should have a firm foothold in the G13 branch, right?"

"I just became the deputy base commander of the G13 branch." Roentgen nodded. He became the deputy base commander with the rank of major general of the G branch. This proves that he is only half a step away from the rank of lieutenant general of the G branch.

"Now that the intelligence system in the family has been completely perfected, I will specially arrange some useful pirate intelligence for you, so that your military rank will be promoted to Lieutenant General of G branch as soon as possible.
